"Izzie." Her eyes open to find him standing next to her.
"Denny, I need to go back."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, please? I need to go now."
"Have you chosen?"
"Yes. What do I have to do?"
"You just need to go to sleep, but Izzie you need to be sure about this. I won't be allowed to interfere again."
"I've never been so sure about anything!"
"Okay, but I've got to warn you. This won't be easy."
"What do you mean?"
"I'm not allowed to tell you anymore than that, I'm sorry."
"It's okay Denny. I'm going to be just fine. I'm going to have a happy life and everyday I will think of how you gave it to me."
"I'm really just returning the favor."
"I don't understand."
"I had a happy life too and that was because of you. It's time. One…..Two…..Three….."
Izzie's eyes snapped open and she walked to the door of the small bathroom, pulling it open. She takes a few steps and sees Alex sitting at the bar waiting.
"Hey, you okay?"
"I am now. Where's Mark?"
"He got paged and had to go, he asked me to take care of you."
"It's okay Alex I know what I want now."
"Izzie, you look so pale."
"Alex."
He stands and starts to walk towards her. She is hit by a wave of dizziness and her knees suddenly feel weak.
"Izzie!" Her eyes flutter closed and she falls to the floor. He rushes to kneel down beside her. Her body is like dead weight as he lifts her partially into his arms, propping her head against his chest. "Izzie, come on talk to me…please!" He screams.
Everything goes black.
