Meredith POV
Oh, look around youLook down the bar from you
The lonely faces that you see
Are you sure that this is where you want to be
Beer nuts. My friends are taking shots and I get beer nuts. I cant drink for another week. 247 beer nuts. Yay. Joe's is really deserted right now, no one is here. Besides Izzy, Alex, Cristina, George, and me.
"Hey Mer, you ready to go home, its getting kinda late."
"Izzy, I have been staring at 247 shells of 247 beer nuts I just ate in one hour. I am ready to go."
"Come on George, were going home." I say as I stand up and walk past the bar. I look down at my feet. Haha…feet that's a funny word. Can you get drunk off of beer nuts? Cause I didn't think it was humanly possible but right now…BAM
These are your friends
But are they real friends
Do they love you the same as me
Are you sure that this is where you want to be
"Ouch." I fall flat on my ass after running into the exact person I did not want to run into. Damn you fate…
"Sorry." He almost goes to help me up, but Izzy rushes over and lifts me to my feet.
"Dr. Shepard." I say as I walk briskly away towards the car. I can tell he is looking at me. I know it. But I am not going to look back, I'm just gonna keep on walking just keep walking just keep…uh oh….the cars are spinning…

Derek POV
She ran into me and I felt her fall backwards. I was going to help her up, but I couldn't. I just watched her walk away into the parking lot. Oh shit. I see her standing still but her stance is wavering. I start to walk towards her, then when she stumbles I run. I catch her before she loses total balance.
"Why is the sky spinning?" You look into her eyes they are very dilated.
"Someone call an ambulance! Meredith, look at me, you need to stay with me okay, you'll be fine, I promise."
"My head." I take off the ski cap that she has been using to hide the scar from surgery. It hot to the touch.
"I'm really tired."
"No, Meredith, you cant fall asleep, just look at me okay. You have to stay awake. You can sleep when we find out what is wrong. For now just look at me okay, right into my eyes, that's it. Don't look away." This is when I realize that I am sitting in a puddle, and my pants are soaked. I can hear the sirens from the ambulance.
They lift her up onto the stretcher. She is still looking at me.
"Who, is accompanying her."
"Me, I'm her doctor." I say and climb into the ambulance right next to her.
"Go to Seattle Grace." I take out my cell phone and call up Dr. Bailey.
"What do you want Derek-"
"I am with Meredith in an ambulance, we bumped into each other and she fell back, she might have hit her head. I need an OR ready when I get there, shes bleeding out. It's slow, but I need to get her into surgery ASAP if she is going to live."
"I'm on my way."
I hang up the phone with Bailey and turn back to Meredith.
"Meredith, are you still looking at me?"
"I'm a med student, not a pre-schooler, when told to look, I look."
"We are almost at the hospital, just hold on for a bit."
And that is when fear struck. This time, she was scared.
"I'm gonna die, aren't I…"
"If you do, I'll just bring you back, that's my job, right?"
Don't let my tears persuade you,
I had hoped I wouldn't cry
But lately, teardrops seem a part of me
Oh, look around you,
take a good look
At all the lonely used-to-be's
Are you sure that this is where you want to be
