"Alright, Miss Sloan had surgery last night, woke up a few hours ago. How are you feeling?" Said Bailey, as she and her interns came into Grace's room.
"Like I had an organ removed," said Grace pain evident in her voice.
"Can we give her anymore pain medication?" asked Derek.
Derek was leaning against the wall facing Grace's bed., Mark was sitting in the chair next to her bed.
"I'm fine," groaned Grace, "Stop fussing"
"They can give you morphine if you are in pain, you had major surgery," said Derek.
"I know, it's not sore just uncomfortable," said Grace sitting up.
"We just have to get her down for an MRI to make sure everything is all right, Dr Grey…" said Bailey just as Addison entered the room.
"Can I get the pretty intern to take me?" asked Grace.
"You're already getting the prettiest intern," said Derek with his McDreamy look.
A few little gasps went through the room. Grace looked at Derek, from the look on his face he hadn't meant to say that.
"Derek…" said Addison slowly.
"You're so stupid," giggled Grace, "Seriously for a brain surgeon…you're so brainless," she said still giggling nervously.
"Alright, Dr Karev take the patient down to MRI," said Bailey.
"Oh uh…Ma'am, Dr Bailey, Miss Nazi…." Said Grace nervously, "I meant Dr. O'Malley, and I mean Dr Karev is okay, but George is so cute."
"Oh….Um…I…" stuttered George as Mark glared at him.
"Alright you heard her O'Malley," said Bailey.
"Miss Nazi, seriously?" muttered Christina .
"Well I don't know….." said Grace, "I'm sorry if the Nazi comment offended you," she said to Bailey.
"I've been called worse," said Bailey, "O'Malley take the patient down for an MRI."
"I can do that," said Derek.
"No I want George to take me," whined Grace.
"Dr. O'Malley will take he patient down to the MRI, Dr. Shepherd, Dr Shepherd, Dr Sloan you can all accompany him," said Bailey.
"Oh come on, do they have to?" moaned Grace.
"I do," said Mark.
"Can't it just be Uncle Derek?" whined Grace.
"No," said Mark and Bailey at the same time.
"Okay then," mumbled Grace.
------------------------------------
A few hours later, Grace was lying in her hospital bed. Mark had gone back to his hotel room to get some sleep after Grace's MRI had shown she was doing alright. Derek was in surgery.
Grace looked up from her magazine when she heard Addison come into her room.
"Can I come in?" said Addison uncertainly.
"Sure," said Grace, who was feeling pretty bad about the way she had been treating Addison.
Addison came in and sat down on the chair next to Grace's bed.
"Dr. O'Malley said your MRI was clean, no internal bleeding. You're doing okay, you can start dialysis tomorrow morning," said Addison.
"I know," said Grace.
"So……."
"Why did you do it?" said Grace.
"I….Do what?….I was lonely, drunk and….lost, I didn't know what I was doing," said Addison, who knew exactly what Grace meant.
"That explains the first time," said Grace, "But you stayed with him for two months. You stayed with Dad, when Uncle Derek ran…you filed for divorce. You were the reason I moved out….You only left him when you found him in bed with another woman…and now you say you love Uncle Derek, you want to make your marriage work…Can't you see what is in front of you? If you loved Uncle Derek the way you used to, you wouldn't have stayed with dad, you would have followed him here. You couldn't have stayed with Dad…." Grace cut off when she saw Derek standing in the doorway, he had heard every word.
When Grace stopped abruptly Addison looked round to where she was looking, and a look of horror crossed her face when she saw Derek in the doorway. He just looked between Addison and Grace, looking betrayed then a look of rage appeared in his eyes.
"Derek…" started Addison.
Derek just turned and walked away.
"Uncle Derek…." Shouted Grace sitting up, but she found she couldn't get out of bed because she was hooked up to machines.
"Gracie lie down I'll go and talk to him," said Addison, taking Gracie's struggling hands off the wires attached to her body.
"NO stay away from me, you BITCH!! He hates me, I kept your dirty little secret and now Uncle Derek hates me. I saw the look on his face….GET YOUR HANDS OFF ME!!" screamed Grace, pushing Addison away.
"What is going on in here?" said Mark coming into the room, "Grace calm down," he said trying to restrain Grace who was still struggling.
"GET AWAY FROM ME BOTH OF YOU!! I HATE YOU!!," she screamed escaping Mark's grasp, as he had let go in shock.
"Derek found out that we stayed together," said Addison.
"And?" snapped Mark, "she is going to hurt herself,"
"He just left, he looked at us then left," said Addison, "She thinks he hates her."
"Gracie Sweetheart, Derek doesn't hate you. He hates me. Please calm down, what if you burst your stitches," he said trying to get close to Grace but she was flapping too much.
"I'm going to go and find him. Look after her," said Addison leaving the room.
"Addie, Addison," Mark said, then he looked towards Grace.
"Dr. Grey," he called poking his head out of Grace's room.
"Yes," said Meredith looking up from the chart she was writing.
"Can you look after Grace? She's got herself into a state," he said.
"Okay…." Said Meredith slowly.
Mark left Grace's room and went after Addison. Meredith went into Grace's room to find she had pulled herself free of her machines, she was almost on her feet…
