Ryan´ POV
After I left Andy´s apartment I walked for hours. I didn´t know what to do. I know I should have told her but Pruitt ask me to keep it to myself so I did it. It was getting dark so I decided to go home and planed to talking to Andy in the morning, I know that she has the day off tomorrow.
When I woke up in the next morning, I decided to get ready and to went to Andy´s apartment. I knocked on the door and hoped that she would already be awake. The door opened but it wasn´t Andy who open the door, it was Jack.
"Hey, what are you doing here so early in the morning?" He ask me. I didn´t know if Andy told him anything so I just went with "I wanted to pick up Andy for breakfast" By the look on his face he knew everything.
"Well she isn´t here. She woke up early and told me she wants to go on a walk. I don´t know when she is coming back."
"Okay then I´m just going to call her."
"She forget her mobile here" he said. Of course I though.
"You want to come in and wait for her?" It was my best shot to talk to her as soon as possible so I entered the apartment.
"You know don´t you?" I ask Jack and he just nodded and said "She is mad at you and her dad for lying"
"I know but I had to. Pruitt ask me to not say anything. You would have done the same wouldn´t you?" I ask him hoping to find support
"I don´t want to interfere"
"What would you do now?" usually I know what to do. I know Andy almost my entire life but right now I had no idea.
"You have to wait till she is not that mad anymore. I think she just needs some time." Jack said trying to help as good as he could. "You want breakfast?" He ask and I nodded. So we had breakfast and waited for Andy but she didn´t came back till lunch. So we decided to also have lunch together. I started to worry because she was gone now for hours and didn´t came back.
Andy´s POV
I woke up early and decided to go for a walk. I have no idea for how long I walked or where, I was in deep thought. I wish I could talk to someone. Talking to Jack helped but I wish I could tell someone the entire story, including everything about Sullivan. I couldn´t talk to someone from the department and of course I couldn´t talk to Ryan. I didn´t realized that I was running into someone until it was to late.
"I´m sorry..." that was the moment were I realized it was someone I knew. "Dr. Grey!"
"Herrera! I haven´t seen you in a long time" she said "are you okay you look... a little…"
"There is a lot going on right now. I´m trying to make some sense of it"
"I have the day off and decided to spend it with my kids in the park. You want to come too? You could talk about what is bothering you."
I looked at her and thought that this would be the solution I was looking for. Meredith Grey isn´t working in the department and she doesn´t know anyone I needed to talk about, so she is unprejudiced.
"Sure why not. Thank you" We went to the park with her kids and while there were playing I told her everything. About Sullivan, Ryan, my dad, Maya and the captains position. She listen to it till I finished with the words "I don´t know what to do now"
"Sounds like you have to made a few decisions." she said "You can´t change what Maya did. The only thing you can do is talk to her and forgive her eventually. You can´t be mad at her for the rest of your life. She is your best friend and even when she was wrong you will need her."
"I know, it is just hard to do this while everything else happens"
"Trust me the rest will get easier when you made up with her" she said and told me the story about her and her best friend who did something similar to her and how they made up again.
"I will try. What else do you have in store. You definitely have a lot of experience." I said smiling
"About your dad, I think he just wants to go on his own termes and he just don´t want you to be alone. Maybe it wasn´t right what he did but he is dying and you shouldn´t waste too much time being mad at him"
She was right we only have a few more month together and I shouldn´t waste them on fighting. I looked at my watch only to realize that it was already 5pm. Dr. Grey saw this too and told me she has to go home to make dinner for the kids. She ask me if I want to come so that we could talk about the rest. I nodded and we went to her house. After dinner the kids went upstairs to play and we sat down on the sofa with a glas of wine.
"You know that I also feel in love with my boss? I married him and now I´m a widow with three kids." She told me her story about falling in love with her boss, his wife and a vet. At some point I noticed that there was a reason why she told me this story. She had to chose between two men.
"This is not about me chosing between Ryan and Sullivan this is about them lying to me." I said
"Maybe I mean I get why you´re mad when your boyfriend lies to you but you should ask yourself why it is bothering you so much that you boss is lying to you. If you really moved on than you shouldn´t care."
Her words hit me unprepared. I knew that I still have feelings for Sullivan but the truth is that the fact that he lied to me hurts more than Ryan lying to me. I hated me for this feeling.
"Andy you can´t change your feelings" she said
"I know, I just wish I could. I should go home, my roommate will call the police when I´m not coming home soon." She laught "Alright, it was nice to spend the day with you Meredith and thank you for everyting"
"Sure, when there is anyting else I can help you with you can come over any time"
