'A family doesn't need to be perfect; it just needs to be united.'
Cristina doesn't remember much after Callie and Arizona left her room; all that she does remember is Callie leaving a very dark spot in her heart. 'Why do I even try to stay here? All this place does is leave me in pieces!' Cristina thought to herself as she looks over to the sleeping figure at the chair by her bed. 'She's been in here the day with me. I wonder why she even come back here.' "Cristina what's on that mind of yours?" Teddy sleepily asked; now sitting fully up from her spot on the chair. "Nothing Teddy, nothing at all." She replies giving her a small smile. Teddy gave her a short nod before asking. "Are you hungry you haven't eaten at all today?" Cristina opened her mouth to reply but her stomach seemed to beaten her to it. 'Damn.' "I guess you are huh?" Teddy chuckled giving her a pat on her arm before getting up.
"I'll be right back I'm going to see if I can get you anything good from the cafeteria." Teddy says; already heading towards the door. Once gone Cristina let herself go back to her darker thoughts. 'Why is she being so good to me? All I am is a failure. It's like my mother says I'm just a waste of space...' Cristina let a few tears slip as she roughly grabbed at her arm and dug her nails in, and let out a loud groan of frustration. Just as she was about to let out another groan the door opened to show Meredith who's got as close as she could without being to close, Derek, a seven-years-old Zola, and four-years-old Bailey. "Hey Cris, how's it going?" Meredith asked lightly. Cristina let an in ward sigh before looking the little family in front of her. "I'm fine, just ready to get out of the hospital." Cristina said. "Aunty Cris I made you something!" Zola yells happily, jumping on her bed; causing Cristina to let out a painful whimper.
"Zola! You have to be more careful! Your aunt has a lot of owies right now!" Derek scolded his daughter causing her to start crying. 'Oh geez.' Cristina thought as she holds her arms out to get Zola to come closer. "Come here honey it's alright, just got need to be a little more careful with me for a while okay?" Cristina asked her as she grabbed a hold of her god-daughter. "Aunt Cris?" A quiet voice said, causing her to look around at her little shy god-son; who was now looking at the ground with a passion. "Come here Bay Bay, don't think I've forgotten about my favorite nephew did you?" Cristina joked, causing Bailey to laugh before careful climbing on the other side of Cristina.
'This two are completly different from each other. Zola defiantly has her dad hyperness and Bailey has his mom's shyness.' Cristina thought with a smile. "CC when can you come over to our house and read to us for bed?" Bailey asked; but before she had the chance to answer Teddy came back with what looked like a Mcdonald's bag! 'Oh thank god!' "Geez Yang I knew you hated hospital food but I didn't think it was that bad.' Teddy joked causing her to blush and everyone else to laugh. "Will Mer I think we should take the kids and let Yang eat that she can rest." Derek said. Meredith gave a nodd of agreement and picked her kids off the bed before heading towards the door. "You coming Der?" Meredith asked while pausing at the door. Derek turned towards his wife, gave a a minute sign and walked back towards Cristina's bed before whispering. 'I'll be back tomorrow to check on you. See you tomorrow little sister." With that Derek gave her a small kiss on top of her forhead and walked back towards the rest of his or is it their family; leaving Cristina with a small smile and a few tears in her eye's. "Thank you. Brother.' Cristina whipers, feeling a little bit of the darkness in her heart lift away.
