-------------------------
Meredith stared at Addie. She was confused. No one was answering her questions and now Addison was here. Addison shouldn't be here. She lived in LA now.
'Addie you look great and its wonderful to see you but… What are you doing here? I thought you were in LA permanently now?' Addie looked troubled. She sat down beside Meredith and put her arm round her.
'Meri… There was an accident…' Meredith's mouth fell open.
'Am I ok.. Are YOU ok? Who's hurt? What happened? Can I …' Addie held up a hand to stop the flow of questions. She took a deep breath.
'Meredith I'm so sorry. It's Derek hun. He got in a car accident this morning and he… Well it's not good… He's being taken to surgery.' Meredith stood up.
'I have to go scrub in. Now. I can help.' Addie took her by the arm.
'No Mer. You have concussion. You have to stay here.' Meredith stopped. It began to hit her.
'He's… going to surgery… He's….' She broke down crying into Addie's arms. Addie's heart broke to see her friend like that. Suddenly Meredith stopped and stared at her left hand. Addie's stomach dropped out.
'Addison. Why is there a ring on my left hand?' She looked into Addie's hand and her face fell as she realised. She burst into tears again. Addison beckoned to Christina who slid into the room and took hold of her friend allowing Addison to leave the room. As she closed the door quietly behind her she felt a hand in the small of her back. Without looking to see who it was she removed it. She turned to Richard.
'I think we should get her a head CT. I'm a little concerned about her.' The Chief nodded.
'Do you think it'll be ok if I go in?' Addie nodded almost blindly as she began to walk away. She barely heard Mark calling out her name as she picked up speed now running down the hall trying to find somewhere safe.. Somewhere quiet. She needed to be alone. She got into her car and drove. She went to the trailer.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mark stood staring after Addison as she drove away. It started to rain but he just stood there. Unable to move. Unable to think. What was wrong with her? He didn't understand. She had said she loved him…. And now she was running from him. He felt more hurt than when she went back to Derek. Even worse than that time that time he'd caught her with Karev or when she left to LA. He hurt. And he didn't know what to do. He walked numbly across the parking lot in the direction of Joe's.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Chief was taking Meredith to CT. She wouldn't stop crying. The Chief sent Christina to go and get Addison back. A nurse approached the Chief.
'Um sir. It's Derek Shepherd there's complications they need you.' The Chief muttered under his breath. He paged Christina. Within 5 minutes she was there.
'Yang you need to take care of Grey. There are complications in the surgery I have to go.' Without another word he ran. Christina noticed that Meredith had stopped crying, but she wasn't sure she liked this. Meredith was just staring into space. Blank faced and silent. Almost completely unresponsive. Christina paged Meredith's shrink.
---------------------
Dr Wyatt appeared just as Christina was walking out of CT with Mer. Christina got a nurse to stay with Meredith as she pulled Dr Wyatt aside.
'Shepherd is in surgery. He's critical. She fell and got concussion. Now she won't talk. I'm worried about her. Oh and he proposed from beyond the accident.' Dr Wyatt raised her eyebrows in shock and confusion.
'How did he…?' Christina glanced over at the nurse who was trying in vain to talk to Meredith,
'He left notes. He was trying to surprise her. By the time she got them… He was in the ER. She won't speak. She won't do anything. I have to look after her interns and mine as well as sorting out the rest of the surgical floor. We're now a resident and an attending down. And Mark and Addison have gone. Take care of her.' Christina almost ran from the scene. It hurt her to see Meredith like that. And she DID have traumas to take care of.
-----------------------------------------
Dr Bailey was looking for her residents. Yang, Stevens, Karev, anyone really. She needed to find Grey. She almost ran headlong into Christina.
'Hey.. What you think you're doing Yang?' Christina looked torn between keeping on rushing to wherever it was she was going and talking to Bailey. Talking won out.
'The ER. I have traumas and my interns and Meredith's interns. Derek's critical he crashed on the table not long ago and Meredith is all dark and twisty. She won't talk. I got Dr Wyatt up to help. I really have to get going ma'am…' Christina started to edge away.
'Hold up. Where are they Yang? And where are Sloan and Montgomery?' Christina shook her head.
'Wyatt's office I presume. I don't know. The Chief sent me to find them but then called me back to take care of Meredith. Somehow we're really short staffed and I have to go make sure the interns don't kill anyone.'
Bailey nodded and let Yang rush off to make sure the interns weren't raising hell in the ER. She in the mean time was going to find Montgomery and Sloan. And she wasn't happy.
