X Chapter Two- Boston X

"I quit" Izzy said before turning on her heals and leaving the hospital that held far too many memories of him. Izzy was vaguely aware that she had been followed out by Alex. "Iz stop." He said putting his hand on her shoulder. She turned to him and fell in to his arms. "Why" she sobbed as he placed his arms around her.

In the light of the sun, is there anyone? Oh it has begun...
Oh dear you look so lost, eyes are red and tears are shed,
This world you must've crossed... you said...

Alex carried Izzy to the car and put her in the passenger side seat. She said nothing on the short ride back to Meredith's. "Izzy it's going to be ok." He said. He tried to take her hand and she snatched it away.

"You don't know me, you don't even care,
She said
You don't know me, you don't wear my chains..."

When they got to the house he followed her to the house. She stopped for a minute before she turned to Alex. "This is entirely your fault. You hated Denny. You wanted him gone out of your way so you could have me. This is all your fault" she screamed pounding her little fist into his chest. He stood there and let her get it all out.

Essential yet appealed, carry all your thoughts across
An open field,
When flowers gaze at you... they're not the only ones who cry
When they see you
You said...

You don't know me, you don't even care,
She said
You don't know me, you don't wear my chains...

"Leave me alone Alex, just leave me alone." "No, not until I know you are going to be ok." "I'm never going to be ok Alex I just lost the one person that loved me." She said while the tears ran down her face. "That's not true Izzy. I love you. I always have and I always will" Alex said trying to grab her hands. "I can't stay here, with all these memories." Alex stood and watched as Izzy turned and went into the house. He knew this wasn't going to be easy for her but she needed him. Izzy walked through the house, emotionless like a zombie. She went to her room and shed the dress that she had picked especially for him. She grabbed the few outfit she had that weren't scrubs and threw them in to her duffle bag.

"She said I think I'll go to Boston...
I think I'll start a new life,
I think I'll start it over, where no one knows my name,
I'll get out of California, I'm tired of the weather,
I think I'll get a lover and fly em out to Spain...
I think I'll go to Boston,
I think that I'm just tired
I think I need a new town, to leave this all behind...
I think I need a sunrise, I'm tired of the sunset,
I hear it's nice in the Summer, some snow would be nice...
Boston... where no one knows my name..."

Meredith had always talked so fondly of Boston. It would be the perfect place to start over. Izzy quietly packed a suitcase and left a note for Meredith and George.

Dear Meredith and George,

I'm sorry I drug you into this. Denny meant more to me than anything. I have to go and clear my head. I need to get away from this situation. I'll call soon and let you know that I'm alright.
