"Derek, are you alright? You seem a little, distracted." Addison asked her husband as they pulled up to the hospital.

"What? Oh, yeah, I'm fine. Just a little tired." he smiled at her.

"I'm not surprised. You were out all night. Where were you?"

"I was at the harbour for a while." He wasn't entirely lying. After Derek saw Jason and Meredith together he couldn't bear the thought of going home to Addison. He had to get his mind off Meredith. He needed to think his life over. So he went to the harbour and watched the ferry boats.

"You worried me, Derek." Addison said truly concerned about her husband. She just wanted everything to be how it used to be but she knew he wouldn't forgive her completely. She wished she could just rewind time and be happy again. Most of all she wanted Derek to be happy. She wasn't used to seeing him like this. He was always vibrant and playful. It was hard to see him like this.

"I'm fine, Addi. Really." Derek interrupted her thoughts. "We better get going. I'll see you soon." He lent in and pecked her on the cheek through the window before walking off.

"Morning." Meredith sung out to her room mates.

"Somebody sounds oddly cheerful." Izzie said to George.

"She probably just had a good sleep." George replied.

"Or she might have just had a certain someone."

"I heard that!" Meredith yelled to Izzie as she descended the stairs. "Actually, nothing happened between me and Jason. We just went out for dinner and that's it."

"Then why can't you wipe that grin of your face. That's not a 'we just had dinner' grin." Izzie interjected laughing. It was good to see her friend smile again.

"It wasn't anything serious. He just...kissed me goodnight."

"That's so sweet. What was it like? Was hard and passionate or soft and sweet?" Izzie asked curiously.

"Oh my god Izzie!" Meredith laughed, "It was soft and sweet. It was nice." she smiled thinking back to last night.

"So are you and him, um, together now?" George asked holding his breath.

"I'm not sure. Last night felt more friendly. And anyway we have a huge history. It would be difficult to start another relationship together."

"You know, I wish we could chat more but Bailey will have our asses if we're late." Izzie exclaimed.

"Hey doll face." Alex said as Izzie entered the interns' locker room.

"You didn't call me." she replied annoyed.

"Uh, I'm sorry. Was I supposed to?" he asked.

"You said you'd call me! Well, technically I asked you to call me, but that doesn't count because you said you would! You know it's the simple things, Alex, that keep a girl around. Like calling without being asked, or, or kissing her goodnight at the end of a date."

"Hey listen, Iz, if you want me to call you, next time I will, okay? I'm sorry. And as for the kissing part..." He lent in to kiss her lips but she turned away so that he got her cheek instead.

"Oh, don't worry Alex, I won't put you out of your way again. I'm very sorry." she said sarcastically opening her locker. Inside it she found a single yellow rose. "Was this...is this from you?" she asked Alex a little breathless.

"Yeah, but don't worry, it won't happen again." he said turning around and walking away.

"Wait, Alex!" Izzie called out but he was already gone. "I'm, I'm sorry." she whispered holding the flower.

"I wouldn't get too bent up on it." Cristina said to Izzie.

"Cristina!" Meredith hissed.

""What? It's not like he gave her a red rose. Yellow roses are what you give your sick grandma when you're visiting her in hospital. It's not exactly the most romantic flower out there."

"Cristina, you're not helping." Meredith said steering her out of the room.

"Hey, I'm Miss Sensitivity." Cristina said as they headed to their patient's room. Meredith couldn't help but laugh out loud as they entered the room where Derek was standing next to their patient.

"Dr. Grey, I'm not sure what is so funny but I'll ask you to postpone conversation so we can concentrate on our patient, Mrs. Miller." Derek said.

"I'm very sorry Dr. Shepherd, I didn't mean to be so unprofessional." Meredith snapped back. Derek knew she was having a go at him so he left it at that.

"Has Mrs. Miller's symptoms changed since her last check-up?" Derek asked Cristina and Meredith.

"We've found the gene mutilation BRCA2. Unfortunately, Mrs. Miller tested positive for ovarian cancer and breast cancer." Cristina stated.

"Thank you Dr. Yang. Dr Grey, can you please tell me what the next step is?"

"There are a few options for Mrs Miller to consider. Observation; she will be closely observed for symptoms of cancer, take regular mammograms, do self-breast-exams and get clinical breast exams and get ultrasounds and blood work to test for ovarian cancer. Another option is to risk avoidance by eating well, exercise regularly, drink less alcohol. There's also chemoprevention; taking natural or synthetic substances with the hope of reducing the risk of ovarian cancer. Her last option is prophylactic surgery; a bilateral double mastectomy salpingo-oophorectomy and hysterectomy. Unfortunately this won't guarantee a one hundred per cent chance that the patient won't develop cancer."

"Thank you Dr. Grey. Mrs. Miller, I know it may seem like a lot for you to digest right now but you're going to have to choose one of these options. I have a surgery to attend to now but I will explain the procedures to you more clearly later."

"How much later?"

"In about half an hour. I'll see you soon." and he left to his next surgery.

"Am I going to be okay?" Mrs Miller asked.

"Dr. Shepherd is an excellent doctor. You're in good hands Mrs Miller." Meredith smiled at her patient.
