A/N: Thank you very much for the reviews. This should be slightly longer.

"You're sure you don't want me to go with you?" Cristina asked for the 10th time this morning.
"Yes. I'm fine." Mer answered, placing her purse strap on her shoulder. But the truth was she didn't know if she was fine. It had been 3 weeks. She had to go get her bloodwork done today. To make sure she wasn't pregnant.
Meredith slipped on her shoes and opened the front door, looking back at Cristina once more. "You're sure?" She asked once more.
"Yeah –I'm sure." Meredith said before shutting the door and stepping out to the cold Seattle air.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Derek hadn't talked to her in 3 weeks. She hadn't been back to the hospital, and none of her friends would speak (except work related) to him. He hadn't been sleeping well, he was too worried. When he saw her that day, walking off the elevator, her eyes were red. She had either been crying, or not sleeping well, or both. She was wearing her 'Dartmouth' shirt, the one she never wore outside of the house, and her light blue jeans.
She didn't see him though. She turned and walked into an office.

"Dr. Bailey?" Meredith asked as Miranda walked into the exam room. Bailey didn't answer though, just squeezed Meredith's hand as she sat down.
"Hello Dr. Bailey." Dr. Williams said to Miranda. Bailey nodded and put a small smile on her face. "A nurse will be here in a few minutes to take your blood."
A few minutes later, a nurse walked into the room and started to take Meredith's blood.
Meredith turned to Bailey and whispered, "You don't have to be here. I'm fine."
"Shut up Grey, you're not fine."
The nurse finished, "Okay Dr. Grey, we'll call you with the results in a few days."
"No." Bailey started. "No, you will get those results today. Right now. Now go!"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Derek." Derek sat, his head in his hands, in the gallery of Dr. Burke's surgery.
"What?" He asked, as Addison sat down next to him.
"Nothing." They sat in silence, "How's Meredith?"
Derek let out a small chuckle, "I wouldn't know."
"You haven't talked to her?"
He sighed, "No."
"She's scared Derek."
Derek didn't say anything, "What if—?"
"What if what?"
"What if she's never the same?"
Addison sighed, "She'll get through this Derek. She's strong. And she loves you. You know that. She just…needs time." The sound of her pager rang through the room, "Bye Derek."
He nodded his goodbye, and sighed again, "Time."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I wonder how Mer's appointment went."
"I hope she's okay."
"She's not okay Cristina."
"I know that—Don't you think I know that?"
"You four, shut up.—Yang go find a surgery. Stevens go to the clinic. And you—go with her. Karev, you can come with me today."
"Has she gotten her results yet?" Alex asked after the other 3 interns had walked away.
Bailey sighed, "No, you're going to get them right now. Do not open them Karev."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meredith sat in the waiting room, wringing her fingers together. She had been waiting for over an hour. Her foot tapped against the floor, causing other people to look up from their magazines to give her an evil glare. She smiled apologetically before looking back down at her hands.
"Hey."
"Hey, what are you doing here?"
"I just got your labs," Meredith's eyes got big, "Bailey's looking them over, she told me to come get you."
"Oh."
Her hands were fiddling with her watch, and he grabbed her hand "Don't worry Grey, it's okay."
A nurse came and took them to a conference room where Bailey and Dr. Williams waited. Bailey's face was grim, and Meredith already knew what the results were.

Wow, I wanted to update this a week ago. But (EXCUSES), my brother's car got broken, and he had to stay back home for this entire time. He finally went back to his apartment today. So, yeah.
About chapter: I really wanted the Derek and Addison talking thing. I'm really going to try to update a lot sooner. School is almost over. 2 more days. But I probably won't update until Wednesday or Thursday because I have to study for…finals. Boo.
So, please review. I love them. I'm also thinking of starting another story. I've written part of it.
Like it?
Hate it?
Please let me know!
