"What does this mean `Fusion with the Mercy West´?" a doctor asked loud and Bailey wanted to answer when another doctor asked something.

"Why?" he asked.

"Because our financial situa-" Bailey got cut off again.

"The Mercy West isn´t a good hospital. They have bad surgeons!" a doctor shouted and some others agreed.

"They are on a better place in the ranking than we-" Bailey replied but Derek interrupted her.

"Doctor Webber would never do something like that." he said and shook his head.

"I´m afraid he would." Richard suddenly appeared behind the crowd. "I did. It´s official. There was no other chance to save this hospital." he meant walking through the doctors and going upstairs stopping next to Miranda. "The Seattle Grace is going to be the Seattle Grace Mercy West."


"No, no, no that must be a mistake. I called you three hours ago that I want to book a room and you said yes. I have the room...214." Lexie meant leaning over the counter and pointing on the key of the room.

"I´m sorry but we don´t have a reservation on your name." the receptionist meant scrolling through her computer.

"Please check it again. Alexandra Grey...there has to be one." Lexie begged and hoped but the woman on the other side of the desk shook her head again.

"I´m really sorry. But I can call another hotel. They are a half hour away maybe they got a room for you Miss and you can come here and buy a day ticket for our wellness section."

"I´m not going to live in another hotel and pay for my wellness here when I booked a room."

"Miss I know this is hard to understand but we don´t have a reservation on your name." the receptionist got mad.

"Look, I´m a surgeon...well, not yet but I work in a hospital. I have night shifts and on-call shifts and sometimes I work 48 hours at once. And my boyfriend cheated on me and he´s also working in this hospital so I needed to get away. I just want to relax and get my mind off. Do you have any empty room?" Lexie wanted to know helpless.

"Unfortunately we are full but someone booked a room with two separate bedrooms. It´s a family room. If you want to and if the guest agrees you can have the other part of this room." the receptionist explained.

"Please can you ask him?" Lexie begged and the woman nodded taking the phone and typing in the telephone number. "Hello...I wanted to ask you something. You booked a family room for this weekend but you are only one person right?...Exactly, I wanted to know if it would bother you if a young woman could use the other bedroom. Her booking got lost and we don´t have any rooms left...okay...okay...I will tell her...thank you, goodbye." The woman hang up and Lexie looked at her hopeful. "He said yes. It´s room number 124. He´s not here yet so you can choose which bedroom you want."

"Thank you so much!" Lexie meant and took her bag heading to the elevator.


"Doctor Webber!" Cristina meant when the questions were answered and everybody went back to their work. "Can Teddy just fire me from her service? I mean can she just do this?"

"Of course she can. And I´m happy with her decision. You really need to catch up on the other specialties." Richard explained and Cristina shook her head unbelievable.

"But I´m not interested in other specialties. Why do I need to-"

"Because it´s part of our teaching plan. And you have to follow the rules." Webber explained harsh.

"But I-"

"No discussion!" Webber said before leaving the resident. Callie, who listened to their talk, came to Cristina.

"Teddy doesn´t want you huh?" Callie noticed but Cristina didn´t react. "Arizona doesn´t want me either."

"That´s...that´s not the same..." Cristina looked at her.

"Well, you feel like she took away the thing you loved the most. Arizona was the thing I loved the most. Both´s gone so I would say it is the same." Callie explained and Cristina looked at her still unsure about what she should think.

"What do you want from me?" she finally asked a little madly.

"Mark´s gone for this weekend, Arizona´s gone forever and I don´t really have any other friends so I thought `hey let´s make friends with Cristina´." Callie admitted watching Cristina raising her eyebrows.

"I´m not really into making new friends thank you." Cristina meant going away.

"Oh come on!" Callie called after her but the resident didn´t react.


"Teddy!" Owen called after his best friend. "Teddy wait!"

"No Owen! I´m not going to talk with you about your girlfriend." Teddy replied mad walking away.

"Teddy...I didn´t want to-"

"Yes you did! I know!" she turned around and looked into his eyes. "I can see it...in your eyes...you were never good at hiding something. I´m not going to take Cristina back."

"Please...Teddy...do it for me."

"Why should I? Because you did so much for me?"

"I..I was your partner in army. I am your best friend. I just wanted to know why?"

"Owen...she acts like a child. She can´t share anything, her interns are just doing the work she doesn´t want to do. She killed my patient because she denied that she messed up. Owen...Cristina is too wild, too dangerous to work with sick patients."

"Teddy...she is just the working type of woman, our residents also let us do the work they didn´t want to do when we were interns and she made a mistake – yes – but that doesn´t justify to keep her away from the thing she loves the most."

"If I was you Owen I wouldn´t be with her anymore. Just because you exactly know that she will never love you as much as she does love a heart." Teddy explained calm but still mad.

"You know nothing about our relationship!" Owen shouted pointing on her before turning around and stamping away.

"Wow...that was...intense..." a man in a wheelchair behind Teddy noticed.

"Yeah...and it proofed me that I was right." Teddy said looking at Owen leaving the hallway and then turned around. "Oh you´re..."

"I´m not paralyzed...I´m just too weak for going. I had an operation yesterday. A tumor in my kidney." he replied.

"Can I see your chart?" Teddy asked and pointed on his chart hanging on the wheelchair.

"I don´t know...my parents taught me not to show everything to strangers." the man joked.

"I´m doctor Altman. Teddy Altman. Cardio-thoracic surgeon." she smiled and hold out her hand.

"I´m Burton. Henry Burton. Tumor-patient. But I have to warn you it´s pretty scary stuff. Just saying." the man replied the smile and shook her hand before she took the chart and looked through it.

"Wow...you have the Hippel-Lindau disease. And you´ve been in hospital for 200 days in the past three years. Are your parents here? Did you call them?" Teddy asked concentrated.

"No...they died. 5 and 4 years ago." Henry replied watching the blond woman reading the shocking truth about his patient history

"I´m sorry." she meant. "Wow...you had a lot of different tumors."

"Yeah...That´s my hobby..." he joked and Teddy looked at him seriously. "Of course not!" he added giggling. Suddenly Teddy´s pager went on.

"I´m...I´m sorry I need to go." she said and put the chart back.

"Wait! How do I look?" Henry asked.

"Um..." Teddy replied confused.

"I want to propose to my girlfriend." Henry explained.

"Well, then...she would be a fool to say no." Teddy smiled and went away.

"Thanks!" Henry called after her also smiling.


Lexie entered the room she could get and threw her bag on the floor. She looked around and decided to take the children´s room and to give the bedroom the nice man who let her sleep in that room. Throwing herself on the bed she sighed and was happy to finally be away from all of the Seattle Grace drama and romances. After a few moments on the comfortable bed she searched in her bag for her bikini and changed into it. Then she took a bathrobe and towel and left the room to finally relax.

I the meantime Mark checked in in the hotel Derek gave him the coupon for. It was originally a present for Meredith from Derek but he changed it on Meredith´s order to a one-man relaxing weekend so Mark was away from Lexie. He entered the room and put his things on his bed. He didn´t look around because he ordered a massage and it would start in ten minutes so he quickly changed into his trunks and left to room with a towel and bathrobe to his massage. After 30 minutes pure relaxing he decided to go swimming. When he hopped into the pool there weren´t a lot of people so he swam some lengths and tried to get Lexie out of his mind when he suddenly saw a beautiful girl from the backwards and decided to flirt with her.


Arizona sat on a bed in the hallway of the Hopkins declining one of Callie´s phone call. She looked at her phone when pressed the red button and sighed closing her eyes.

"Everything´s fine, doctor Robbins?" a nurse Arizona knew from her previous time at the Hopkins, asked friendly.

"Yeah, sure...everything´s..awesome." Arizona lied putting her phone back in her pocket.

"Arizona...I know you since a few years now and I know if something´s not okay with you." the nurse explained and sat down next to her.

"Lilly I...I just...I miss my girlfriend so much." Arizona admitted stroking through her hair. Lilly laid her hand on her friends shoulder and sighed.

"Then why don´t you visit her?" she asked.

"Because she broke up with me...she broke up because I took this job. I´m so damn stupid."

"No you´re not...just..maybe call her." the nurse said and Arizona giggled.

"You know that´s the point. She calls me the whole time and I decline."

"Why?"

"Because I don´t know what to say. I don´t know if I should tell her that I´m sorry because I´m not. I organized a job for her too. And she left me."

"But I thought you missed her?"

"I do...but...I´m afraid."


"Hello. What can I do for you?" a nice woman asked when Lexie came to her desk.

"Hello..so I originally wanted to get a massage but it´s full so I thought about coming here. The coiffeur. I think I need a little change in my life." Lexie explained and the woman nodded.

"Of course. Just another haircut or changing color?"

"Both...I think. I would like to get blond." Lexie explained sitting down in the coiffeur´s chair and watching in the mirror like the hairdresser was playing with Lexie´s dark brown hair.

"And which shape of blond?" she asked and handed her out a folder. A few minutes went by when Lexie decided which shape she wanted and pointed on it.

"This." she said and turned around.

"Uhh...the break-up-blond. Was it hard?"

"Excuse me?"

"Every woman who wants this blond is freshly out of a break up. Mostly a hard break up."

"Well then, do it!" Lexie ordered and the woman put the coat around Lexie´s neck.

"É voila!" the hairdresser meant after finishing her work. "It fits you!"

"Thank you...Can I pay now? I don´t want to book it on the room." Lexie explained and the woman nodded.

"Sure...25 dollars. Special prize for you..." she smiled.

"Really? Why?" Lexie asked confused but smiled back.

"You seem like your break up was really hard." the hairdresser whispered and Lexie gave her the 25 dollars.

"Thank you..." Lexie replied whispering and shook her hand before leaving the coiffeur and going to the pool where only were a couple and a family for her surprise.


"Good evening Izzie...How´s it going?" Bailey asked when she entered the room and saw her patient sitting in her bed knitting.

"Look I´m knitting shoes for Denny. I think he likes blue, what do you think?" Izzie asked happily and showed one finished shoe to her friend.

"Well, I think you should rest and not be Happy the dwarf when you´re doing an interleukin 2 procedure." Bailey replied and straightened the curtains.

"I feel good. I never felt better. Can you bring Denny here to me? I bet he misses his mommy." Izzie said again too happy.

"That´s not possible, sorry. He´s too weak to leave the newborn ICU." Bailey said and Izzie stopped smiling.

"Then bring me to him!" she begged.

"I´m afraid that´s also not possible. You should stay in bed. Your condition can change from one second to the other."

"Miranda please..."

"Also it´s not allowed to visit the newborn ICU when you´re sick."

"I have cancer. It´s not like I will infect the babies."

"Izzie...you have to follow the rules just as any other patient."

"Please Miranda...I want to see my son...I only saw him on pictures yet and what if he forgets that I´m his mother."

"He won´t-"

"How would you feel when you could never see your son?"

"I´m seeing my son every-"

"How?" Izzie asked mad and loud.

"Terrible..." Miranda admitted and Izzie nodded. "Fine, I´ll take you there. But don´t tell anyone!"

"Thank you!" Izzie smiled again. A few moments later Miranda entered the room with a wheelchair but Izzie shook her head and stood up.

"I can go. See? I´m fine." she claimed and Bailey sighed knowing it wouldn´t make sense to force her and put it into a corner of the room. Izzie smiled and Bailey couldn´t help but reply it and they went to the newborn ICU. Not even slowly. If you looked at Izzie you wouldn´t have thought she had this exhausting procedure only hours ago.

"Here we are...that´s your son." Bailey meant when they stopped in front of a bed with a little baby in it that was full with wires and still on the lung ventilator.

"He´s so...small." Izzie whispered and put her hands on the glass case Denny laid.

"He´s six and a half month old. But he´s doing better and better. He gets strong." Bailey explained and smiled seeing Izzie so happy after all she´s been through.

"He´s beautiful." Izzie meant with tears in her eyes.

"He really is." Bailey agreed and both watched him breathing. A moment of silent filled the air when Bailey looked at her watch and said it was time to go again. But Izzie didn´t move and didn´t reply.

"Izzie?" she asked but again Izzie didn´t do anything. Bailey turned her around by pulling at her shoulder and saw Izzie trying to breathe. "Izzie!" she screamed before the unconscious body of Izzie Stevens crashed against the floor.


"I can´t believe you agreed doing this!" Derek shouted going through Richards office nervously.

"I had no choice. I didn´t want to give up the hospital!" Richard replied loud.

"You gave it up by agreeing to the fusion!" Derek explained to him.

"We all don´t know what´s going to happen. This will be a change yeah but it won´t infect our team." Richard tried to make it sound better.

"It will. It will change everything. We could resist the other crisis too." Derek reminded his chief. "Why did you agree to this?"

"Enough! I´m your chief and I´m not going to let you talk to me like that. One more word about this fusion and I will fire you." Richard shouted mad standing up and leaning over his desk.

"You would never fire me. I´m the best neurosurgeon you could get." Derek giggled.

"Don´t overestimate yourself." Richard whispered harsh and sat down again putting on his glasses and doing the paper work. "You know where the door is." he said not paying attention to Derek shaking his head and storming out of the office.


Cristina laid in her bed staring at the ceiling when Owen came home. "He ran through the apartment powerful and cursed everything the whole time. Cristina wondered why and stood up and went to the living room.

"Owen?" she asked quietly.

"Cristina I...I didn´t...you...you´re home." he replied stuttering.

"Yeah I left the hospital one hour ago. What happened?" Cristina wanted to know.

"I´m...I´m so sorry...Teddy she...she...I tried to change her mind but she´s so..." Owen stopped talking when his voice started shaking mad.

"It´s okay dear...It´s okay you don´t need to tell her that..she will notice that it´s her loss." Cristina meant and pointed on the empty place in the bed next to her where Owen sat down.

"Are you sure? I would try it again." Owen meant and looked her in the eyes. Softly Cristina laid her hand on his cheek and he closed his eyes by her touch.

"It´s okay." she meant and kissed him slowly.


The beeping of the the monitor which messed her heart pressure waked Izzie up. She opened her eyes a bit and noticed she laid in her bed again. She touched her forehead and noticed a band aid on it and the incredible pain in her head.

"Ouch.." she meant when she heard steps coming closer. She tried to open her eyes more and recognized Alex standing in front of her.

"What are you doing here?" she whispered huskily.

"You were conscious. Here drink something." he meant and held a cup with water and a straw to her and she drank a bit.

"But why are you here. We´re not a couple anymore." she meant after clearing her throat.

"But I´m still your emergency contact." Alex meant and looked down at the cup in his hands. For a moment both were silent. Suddenly Izzie sighed.

"I saw Denny for the first time today...he has your nose." she explained.

"I wanted to visit him but then Bailey paged me that...that this happened to you. Iz...I miss you." Alex said shyly.

"I miss you too.." Izzie replied quietly looking down on her hands.

"You do?" Alex asked surprised and looked at her how she nodded.

"But...what you did to me...I don´t know if I can forgive you that."

"You don´t have to. I just want you back. Back in my arms, back in my life. Izzie I...I don´t know what I did my whole life before I met you. Thanks to you I now know what happiness means, what trusting someone means, what...what true love means. Thanks to you I got a better man. And I screwed up...I know...and you don´t have to forgive me. Just love me." Alex begged.

"Come closer." Izzie ordered quietly and Alex sat down on her bed. "Closer." she meant and Alex leaned over to her a bit. "Closer."

"Why?" he asked.

"Because I´m too weak to sit up and kiss you and now come closer." she explained and Alex leaned in and kissed her softly.

"And now?" Alex asked after pulling away. But Izzie didn´t reply and put her hand on his cheek and looked him in the eyes deeply before pulling him to her and kissing him again.


Mark thought a moment about if he should talk to the pretty girl or not because he still loved Lexie but decided to flirt with her. He swam to the woman he saw from the backwards and tried to remember a good joke. He forgot everything during the relationship because it wasn´t necessary.

"I think we haven´t met yet. My name is Ma- Ahhhh!" he screamed when the blond girl turned around turning out it was Lexie.

"Mark?!" she asked loud and confused.

"What are you doing here? Why are you blond?" he asked still scared.

"I´m here because I wanted to get away from yo- were you just trying to flirt with me?" Lexie asked back.

"I´m...I was not..."Mark stuttered.

"Yeah you were. You wanted to flirt with another girl...Or you´re stalking me!" Lexie meant mad.

"I´m surely not. Derek booked me this to get away from you!" Mark explained and looked around when he noticed the couple that was about to leave watching them.

"Well, I´m here to forget you." Lexie said loud not carrying about the mother of the family shaking her head.

"You want to forget me? I thought you want to get me back." Mark said but it sounded like he would ask.

"I do want you back. I really do. I love you Mark. But that makes me sad. And I don´t want to be sad. I don´t want to love you Mark, I want to be happy." Lexie explained.

"And you´re happy now?" Mark asked coming closer and Lexie didn´t reply.

"I think I need to go to my room now." Lexie meant quickly and swam away.

"Which room number do you have?" Mark smirked.

"I´m not going to tell you that." Lexie replied continuing swimming.

"If you change your mind I have room number 124." He called after her and she suddenly stopped swimming and looked back at him.

"What did you just say?" Lexie wanted to know.

"So you changed your mind." he grinned.

"Which room number?!" she screamed coming closer and now she really didn´t care because nobody was in the pool anymore besides them.

"124 you want to come with me now?" Mark asked a bit confused but still amused.

"That´s not possible that´s my room!" Lexie meant shocked.

"What? No...it´s mine." Mark giggled.

"No I know it because I discussed so much because my original room wasn´t available and they gave me...oh god no...please don´t say we two share a room." Lexie begged.

"Why should we share-"

"Because the receptionist called the guest of the room 124 and asked if I can sleep there too because it´s a family room and he was just alone." Lexie explained still in shock.

"Nobody called me." Mark promised.

"Didn´t you say Derek booked this for you?" Lexie asked and Mark was silent. "God no..."

"Don´t you see? We belong together! We are in the same hotel for the same reason – to forget each other! Then we meet and we even share the same room." Mark meant and came closer. But Lexie stepped back although she wanted him to kiss her. Mark continued coming closer and Lexie continued stepping back when she suddenly hit the wall. Mark smirked and put his hands on both sides of Lexie on the wall. Their bodies touched and it immediately felt like a big explosion. Mark leaned over to kiss her and she exchanged looks between his lips and eyes when suddenly something caught her attention.

"Mark!" she screamed when a lifeless body swam next to them.

"Oh my god!" he shouted when he turned around. Immediately they swam to the body and saw that it was a kid. Mark pulled it out of the water and laid him on the floor where Lexie clapped the kid on the shoulder and tried to find a pulse.

"No pulse." she meant shocked and Mark pushed her aside to start with the reanimation. "Call 911!" he shouted when he started the cardiac massage. Lexie ran to her bag and called the emergency. "Have you got a pen? I need to do a tracheotomy!" Lexie searched in her bag while explaining what the emergency was.

"Okay, does the boy breathe?" the woman asked.

"No." she meant still searching in her bag.

"Okay do you know how a reanimation works? 30 times a cardiac massage and 2 times-"

"2 times ventilation...I know. I´m a surgeon." she explained and held up a pen and threw it to Mark. "A friend is doing a tracheotomy. Please we need an ambulance with the right tracheotomy set." Lexie meant and kneel down next to Mark and gave him a hand disinfection so he can make it sterile.

"A tracheotomy? that´s very dangerous!" the woman warned.

"We are both surgeons we can do this." Lexie meant a bit mad. "Now send us the damn ambulance!" she ordered and hang up after the woman told them she send one. "You can do this right?" she asked Mark unsure.

"Yeah I could need something sharp. Like scissors." he meant and looked at Lexie who took her bag and searched for something sharp when she found nail scissors and made them sterile with the hand disinfection.

"Oh my god! What are you doing?!" a woman suddenly disturbed them when Mark wanted to open his throat.

"Ma´am please he´s doing a tracheotomy so we can ventilate this boy. Who are you?" Lexie stood up and held the woman away from Mark so he could do his job.

"I´m his mother. that´s my sun. Oh my god...what happened?" the woman cried.

"Okay...it´s okay...just look somewhere else. You don´t want to see that." Lexie explained knowing that Mark was about to open the boy´s throat.

"Lex...I could use your help." he suddenly meant and the woman got more nervous.

"It´s okay stay here I´m going to help saving your son." Lexie said and ran to Mark after the woman nodded.

"You have some tissues?" he whispered so the mother couldn´t hear him.

"Of course." she said and put them out of her bag. When she turned around she noticed how much blood came out of the boy´s throat. "Is it normal that so much blood comes o-" she whispered shocked but Mark stopped her.

"I think I might cut into the carotid." Mark explained quietly.

"You think you might cut it? When have you done your last tracheotomy?" Lexie also got nervous.

"It´s not that easy when you don´t have an ultra sound and the right instruments." Mark said nervous and his hands started shaking.

"It´s okay. You can do this." she comforted him and he nodded. Lexie dabbed around the wound with the tissue so Mark could see better and noticed it wasn´t the carotid he hurt. Then he put the pen into the hole. He started to ventilate the boy and when his chest rose they started smiling and a sigh of relieve came out of Lexie´s mouth. Mark continued reanimating the boy and the paramedics came in the meantime and took the boy and his mother to the hospital and left Lexie and Mark congratulating for their good work.

"Wow...okay I´m done with swimming for today. I need to rest a bit. Besides that...the dinner starts in a half hour." Lexie explained and took her bag. "Can you go and tell the receptionist or someone that the should clean the blood from the floor?" she asked and Mark nodded. Lexie smiled and Mark replied it. "You really did a great job Mark."

Lexie entered her room and sat down to rest a bit when Mark also entered the room and smiled seeing Lexie overwhelmed.

"That was amazing...you saved this boy´s life." Lexie meant and stood up.

"Well, we both did." Mark grinned and came closer. Lexie stepped back again. "Why won´t we celebrate this?"

"Mark..." Lexie whispered stepping back.

"Little Grey..." Mark whispered back smirking. Suddenly Lexie bumped against the closet and Mark smiled. He stopped only a few inches in front of her and put his arm against the closet.

"Why don´t we continue where we stopped?" he asked horny and Lexie switched gaze between his eyes and his lips. Mark wanted to come closer when suddenly Lexie grabbed his face and pulled him over to kiss him. It felt like the very first time they kissed. Like Fireworks exploded between them. Mark was a bit overstrained but replied the kissed immediately. Mark´s tongue begged for entry by touching her lip but she quickly pulled him away and stopped the kiss. She pressed her lips together and clapped him on the shoulder when he arched his eyebrows.

"Okay..." she meant and went away from him.

"What are you doing?" Mark asked when he watched Lexie putting off her bathrobe.

"I´m going to jump into the shower." she said and put of her Bikini. Mark, who watched her from the backwards, tried to keep his mouth closed when she went towards the bathroom and closed the door behind her. When she turned on the water in the shower she looked in the mirror and touched her lips. She closed her eyes and smiled before she opened the door again and her head looked out.

"Want to join me?" she smirked and Mark looked at her confused but also still horny. "Saves water."

"But only because I care about the environment." he replied smiling and entered the bathroom. Lexie kissed him while he opened his bathrobe and let it drop onto the floor. The kiss got more passionate when they involved their tongues and she put off his trunks. Mark took the skinny brunette beauty up and they stepped into the shower which meanwhile got hot and steamy. "They kissed and let the water splash on their heads and faces. Some hot minutes went by when Lexie stopped the action and looked him in his beautiful blue eyes.

"Want to continue in bed?" she asked flirty and Mark smirked. They stepped out of the shower and Mark pressed her against the wall. They kissed again and he put her up and carried her to his bed where he laid her down and placed his body on her. Lexie´s hand stoke over his back and scratched him a bit while he stroke through her hair. A little moan came out of Lexie´s mouth when Mark´s hand went from her legs up to her arm and he crossed his fingers with her´s. They enjoyed every hot minute and every passionate kiss together and rolled around in the king size bed so Lexie could control him too. After they both finished this moment of sexiness and hotness. Mark leaned back next to Lexie and they both breathed heavily.

"So why blond?" Mark asked and played with Lexie´s hair.

"I don´t know. An experiment maybe?" she replied. It got silent again. Suddenly Lexie started to giggle and Mark looked at her confused.

"What? What is so funny?" he meant and smiled when Lexie turned over to him and looked him in the eyes.

"I forgot how great this is. I mean I remembered that it was great but that´s...that proved me that I forgot it." Lexie giggled.

"So you´re satisfied?" Mark smirked and Lexie leaned over to him.

"More than ever before." she giggled and kissed him. Again their kiss got more passionate then they thought it would be and suddenly Lexie sat on Mark. Just when he was about to enter her again she stopped him.

"The dinner´s waiting for us." she meant with her hand on his chest and his hands on her ass.

"Let´s skip dinner. We´ve got more important things to do." he meant and made her laugh before she came down and kissed him again. They repeated the great sex they had before.


Teddy waited for the elevator to come and pressed the button a few times impatiently. She sighed relieved when the doors opened and stepped in after some doctors and nurse left elevator. She was about to press the button when someone shouted to stop the doors of the elevator so she did it and saw a man in a wheelchair rolling through the doors and stopping in the corner of the elevator.

"Which one?" she asked and pointed on the buttons.

"Fourth." he said and she pressed the fourth and the button to the floor she needed.

"You don´t remember me huh? Doctor Teddy Altman, cardio-thoracic surgeon." the man joked and Teddy turned around. Now she recognized the man in the wheelchair.

"Of course. Henry Burton, tumor-patient." she smiled. "How did the proposal go?"

"Well, not so good. She said no." Henry admitted.

"Oh I´m sorry." Teddy replied.

"Oh...no problem...she was right. I liked her. But I liked her p.P.O. more." Henry said disappointed.

"You don´t have an insurance?" Teddy asked surprised and Henry shook his head.

"Capped out about three operations ago. I´ve been charging it on my credit cards." Henry meant.

"Who´s your surgeon?" she asked.

"Doctor Webber. But not for long they´re discharging me today." he replied looking down at his hands.

"You have a pretty dangerous tumor. They´re not just throw you out on the street." Teddy meant and Henry looked at her but quickly down on his hands again. "You know what? Let me see what I can do."

"Look," Henry said and their gazes met. "I don´t know how much your fee is...uh, but..but I´m sure I can´t afford it." Henry said sadly.

"Let me do it." Teddy meant and smiled.


"Derek..." Meredith said quietly and came closer to her fiancé. "I called her."

"Who?" Derek asked confused.

"My gyn. I called her. She said that I can come tomorrow. We can come tomorrow." she explained smiling.

"Really? Mer that´s great!" Derek said and kissed her. "Want to celebrate this with a brain aneurysm?" he chuckled and showed her the chart. She took it and smiled.

"Of course!" she replied and they were about to go when Webber showed up behind them.

"Doctor Grey!" he called her and the couple turned around. "Do you want to have a solo operation? Pancreatic carcinoma." Meredith switched gaze between the men.

"Mer...you can clip the aneurysm." she looked at Derek.

"You can do the whole operation." she looked at Richard.

"Neuro is your destination." she looked at Derek again.

"You will be a general surgeon as great as your mother." she looked at Richard again.

"Mer.." eyes on Derek.

"Doctor Grey." eyes on Richard.

"Enough!" Meredith shouted and closed her eyes. "I don´t want this!" She looked at Richard. "I told you I´m not going to choose my specialty yet!" she looked at Derek. "And I love you. But I don´t want you to fight with the chief because of some stupid things." she looked at the floor. "I think I´m going to the e.r. I don´t want to be in an o.r. with someone who tells me how great my mother was." eyes on Richard. "And also not with someone who thinks he has a god complex and tells me that I can do something but then does in on his own." eyes on Derek. She sighed before turning on her heel and leaving. Richard and Derek looked at each other mad before Derek gave him a fake smile and Richard replied it also with a fake smile.

"Doctor Webber."

"Doctor Shepherd."


"Hello Izzie. Why don´t you sleep already?" Bailey asked when she entered the room. "It´s almost 10 p.m."

"You don´t need to do this. I forgave Alex. We´re back together. You don´t need to be my friend anymore and look after me." Izzie said.

"Well, I am still your friend and I´m happy for you. But I am still your doctor and I´m just doing my night rounds. So how are you feeling?"

"I´m fine. My vitals are good and my blood pressure normal again. I don´t feel dizzy and thanks to the morphine I ordered my headache is gone. And oh...look, my cute boyfriend´s here with my tea. Thanks babe." she said happily when Alex entered the room and gave her a cup of tea. He looked to Miranda and gave her a shy smile which she replied.

"Okay...visitor time is over. And you need to rest. You´ve got your brain operation tomorrow. And I dare you not to be fit enough for the surgery." Bailey said harsh but smiling.

"I´m leaving in five minutes." Alex promised and Miranda nodded closing Izzie´s chart.

"Then I tell Webber that I want my surgeries back,..see you tomorrow." she meant and closed the door behind her.


"What are you thinking about?" Mark asked when he laid on his side, holding his head with his hand and staring at Lexie who laid on her back staring at the ceiling.

"Nothing." Lexie, who was wrapped in the blanket answered not looking at Mark.

"You´re sure?" he wanted to know and now Lexie turned her head towards him.

"I am." she said. Mark smiled and leaned over to kiss her. She replied the kiss immediately but ended it before it got to passionate.

"Okay..." she said pressing her lips together and clapping him on the shoulder. "I´ll go."

"Go? Where?" Mark asked confused when Lexie sat up.

"This nice guest who originally booked the room allowed me to sleep in the other bedroom. I don´t want to bother him." she smiled and wanted to step out of the bed when Mark wrapped his arms around her.

"You would never bother me." he said while pulling her back in the bed and on him which caused her to let out a little scream. She giggled what made him grin and they looked at each other.

"But I´m to tired for a third round." she admitted yawning.

"It´s okay." Mark meant and but a streak of her hair behind her ear. "We can just sleep here...next to each other...enjoy the time we spend together." Lexie smiled and pt her head on his chest. She closed her eyes and started breathing calmly.

"I love you." Mark whispered believing she already fell asleep. But she didn´t and heard it which caused her to smile.


"A medic alert bracelet?" Teddy asked shocked when she, Webber and the management sat in the conference room and talked about Henry. "That´s your solution?"

"The patient has a high-potential crisis-" the the manager wanted to say but Webber interrupted him.

"When,...when he has a high-potential crisis." Webber corrected him.

"The paramedics." the manager continued ignoring Webber. "That bring mister Burton her, will be will treat his emergent condition."

"Yeah, that will be too late." Teddy noticed. "He´ll be dead." A scary silent ruled the room. "So you´re sending him home to die, but you´re okay with it because you´re giving him a bracelet with his name on it."

"Doctor Altman, that´s not our intent-" the manager wanted to say but she cut him off.

"Then what? What is your intention? To save money by sending someone home who need permanent medical treatment?" Teddy asked mad.

"That´s not-" she interrupted the manager again.

"Then tell me! What is it?" she wanted to know.

"If you let me finish my sentence once then I´ll-"

"No! I won´t! Because everything you say is nonsense crap!"

"Doctor Altman. Please. Leave this room." Webber ordered and Teddy looked at him.

"Why? Because I want to help a man? Because I-"

"Now!" Richard said harsh and Teddy looked at him a few seconds before staring at the manager who looked at his papers and played with a pen.

"Fine. I´ll go. If you want to kill this patient do it." Teddy meant and stood up shutting the door close.


Cristina sat in the bed next to Owen watching her show and eating Chinese food.

"Oh Owen that´s the part you like the most." she said pointing on the TV. When he didn´t reply she turned around and saw him sleeping. She turned the TV off and put the blanket over him. By putting the food boxes down on the floor she meant it was cleaned up and watched him breathing peacefully. She stroke over his beard before closing her eyes and also falling asleep.


"Okay Iz...I´ll go. I look after Denny first and then I go home." Alex meant and kissed Izzie on her forehead.

"Okay. Please be here again when I get operated." she meant holding his hand.

"Of course I will. And...could you please forgive Mer and Cristina and...and Lexie? It´s not their fault that I screwed up." Alex said sorrowful and Izzie nodded. "Okay good night."

"Good night. I love you." Izzie called after him when he was about to leave the room.

"Will you marry me?" Alex asked and closed his mouth shocked about what he said.


Henry sat on his patient bed, his bag packed and his normal clothes on his body.

"I´ve prescribed alpha-blockers and set you up in the free clinic. If you need anything...call me. We see you through this." Webber explained and gave him some drugs and his phone number.

"Thank you." Henry said quietly and nodded. Webber replied it and left the room. The no-longer patient put the medicine into his back when Teddy entered the room.

"Hey. Um..I tried...I´m sorry..I..uh-." she meant looking down at her shoes.

"It´s okay...I´ll be fine." Henry lied. "Doctor Webber slipped me some free samples, so um..I´m good for a while."

"Good, good." Teddy meant and it got silent in the room. "Well, good luck." Teddy said and Henry nodded standing up and going towards the door. "I...I have a great medical insurance." Teddy said before he left the room. Henry turned around and looked her in the eyes.

"Way to kick a man when he´s down." Henry smiled but wasn´t happy at all.

"I´m saying...I´m...I´m saying that...I´m saying that I´ll marry you." Teddy stuttered and rubbed her forehead.

"Uh...that´s a really generous offer but I can´t." Henry explained overwhelmed.

"I´m a doctor. I took an oath, and I can´t leave you now any more than I could leave you bleeding out in the street." Teddy meant and Henry swallowed.

"This is absurd." he said. "You aware of that? You´re gonna regret it deeply in the morning." Teddy smiled by him saying these words and he had to smile too.

"You´re dying. Henry you´re dying." she tried to make him clear and he looked down at his shoes. "But you don´t have to, cause I can help. I mean it. I´ll marry you." Teddy said looking Henry deeply in his eyes waiting for an answer while he stared at her unsure to believe her or not.
