Meredith had gone to sleep in Marks arms that night, and woke up the next morning feeling rested. Meredith struggled out of bed and groaned. She had the early shift. Mark reached for her in his sleep and Meredith watched as he pulled her pillow to his chest.

Meredith showered and dressed before giving Mark a quick kiss on the cheek and rushing out the front door.

Meredith arrived at the locker room right on 6am. She was greeted by Bailey. "Your case with Dr House has progressed; you need to get a rundown from him when he gets in. For the meantime Dr Shepherd called in and requested you take over a few of his lighter cases. Your flying solo for most part of the day as he is in meetings."

Meredith ran a hand over her stomach and nodded.

"By the way Grey, get something to eat as soon as rounds are finished. I'm sure Steamy would kick your arse if he knew that you had come in on an empty stomach." Bailey bossed.

"I've eaten." Meredith protested.

"Grey you've always been a bad liar. And I hate bad liars." she glared.

Meredith rolled her eyes. "Fine"

"Go find your interns" Bailey ordered before she left Meredith to change into her scrubs.

Meredith met her interns at the nurses' station on 3. She led them on rounds and by the time they were finished and assigned, Meredith was feeling tired again.

Meredith made her way to the conference room that held her uncle and 

his crew.

Meredith walked in and slumped into a chair. She hadn't paid any attention to who else was in the room.

"Can I help you?" a voice came, and Meredith waved her arm.

"I'm fine, just resting" she replied.

"Well we are kind of in a meeting at the moment, and I don't know who you are." the voice spoke.

Meredith's eyes shot open. "Ummm... sorry" she quickly apologised, and went to stand,

"It's ok, Miss Bradshaw this is Dr Meredith Grey. She is actually the neurologist working on the case." her uncle cut in.

Meredith relaxed but sat up a little.

"As I was just saying, your brother has baffled many doctors until now. It was actually Dr Grey who solved his case. We need your consent for surgery." He continued.

Meredith sat up to ask a question, but her pager sounded. "Excuse me" she said as she stood and ran from the room. She had been paged 911 to the pit.

Meredith's day continued in that manner. She ran from patient to surgery. Not having a moment just to stop.

Meredith was standing at the nurses' station at 6 that night, having just come from surgery. She finished the patients chart and began to move towards the elevator.

Meredith was feeling tired and dizzy. She paused for a moment grabbing hold of a vacant gurney to steady herself.

Meredith reached the elevator and stepped on. She moved to the back, the dizziness getting too much for her, so she decided to sit down.

The elevator floor was cool, and she closed her eyes, welcoming the chill on her skin.

Meredith was shaken awake by Lisa. "Aunt Lisa, I don't feel so good." she grumbled.

Lisa looked her over. "Jimmy, I need you to pick her up and carry her to the conference room. I'll page Mark."

"Why the conference room?" James asked.

"Because tea is being brought up by Addison and I'm guessing by the amount of times Meredith was in surgery today, that she has yet to eat 

or really have a drink." Lisa answered.

Meredith stumbled as she tried to stand up. "Dizzy" she tried to reason.

James moved to her and scooped her up. "Gees Mer, any one would think your drunk or hung over." he whispered.

Meredith rested her head on his shoulder. "I love you too Uncle Jimmy" she replied as he stepped off the elevator with her in his arms.
