Izzie's New Year's resolution was to let go of her situation with Alex. Ah, Denny. She's never had a patient that captured her heart as he did. Never get involve with your patients. She could have, would have. It saddened her when he failed to receive a new heart. Life was so unfair.
There were so many Alex's in the world, but only one Denny. The one with a big heart, who needed an even bigger one to keep him alive. It broke her heart as she watched him leave the hospital as he turned and bid her goodbye. Hopefully, she hopes it was not for good.
Thoughts of Alex popped into her head. Did she just tuck him away somewhere in her heart when Denny came into the picture, sweet gentle Denny. Or is she completely over Alex?
Alex's thoughts of Izzie filled his head. He never knew what jealousy felt like until Denny came into the picture. A heart patient, he laid helplessly in the hospital bed, but, yet, ever so charming. Dr. Karev hated the attention their new patient was giving Izzie. But, yet, he did admit to himself if Izzie was to be with someone else, it should be with someone like Denny.
It frightened Alex for he thought he lost Izzie for good. Correction, he knows he lost her for good. Denny is a gentle man, well mannered, who would be perfect for her. She was a warm and loving person who deserved the best. Alex knew he definitely doesn't deserve her.
He blamed himself for everything. It's ironic, here was a man who awaited for a match to find the perfect heart to keep him alive. In Alex's eyes, Denny already had a perfect heart in him.
