Chapter 2
This Chapter is about Katelynn's first return to Seattle.
I walked into the hospital. look through a sea full of faces. and then I see Meredith. She's flirting with a rather dreamy doctor. With his gorgous eyes and amazing hair. he's tall dark and handsome and a doctor, every girls dream. Opps sorry I got side tracked,anyway. Meredith turned and caught a glimpse of me. Her face went blank, she walked over to me
"Katelynn?!?"
she looked less then happy to me.
"hey Mere" I replied
She gave me a quick awkard hug and said "what are you doing here?"
"I came for a visit!"
She didn't look to happy about that.
"How long are you staying?"
"er ... that the thing..." BEEP BEEP BEEP , Mere's pager went off
"crap 911 I gotta go,we'll talk later, stick around."
So there I was once again left alone in seattle grace with nurse giving me dirty looks like crazy. Just then a red head walked up to me.
"you look lost? Is there anything I can help you with" she said in her gentle voice
"No I'm not lost, I know this hospital like the back of my hand."
She looked a little confused. I took a glance at her name tag "Dr. Addison Montgomery" Ha I just realized that I said that out loud.
She replied "yup that would be me."
"I'm Katelynn Grey"
"Grey? Any relation to Meredith Grey?"
"Yeah, she my older sister. are you two friends?"
" can't stand me. I take it you don't talk to your sister much other wise you would hate me too"
"you're right about one thing, I don't talk to Meredith much. But just because she doesn't like you doesn't mean I wouldnt. I am Not my sister"
"Yes that you are not, well it's nice to Meet you Katelynn." she said and she sounded like she meant it. then she continued
" I'm going down to get some gross cafeteria food. wanna join me?"
"Ha sure. I'll see if the food is any better now than it was 4 years ago."
And at that we both I made friends with the She-shepard. I realized they that they called her later. And Meredith Really does hate her. Because when we were down in the cafeteria she kept glaring at Addison and was surrounded by 4 people ... A blonde who I learned later is named Izzie Steven, Christina Yang, some guy I heard them call Bambi. and a fourth guy that I don't know. I could hear them wispering, asking questions about who the "she-shepard's friend was". I felt like going over and telling them to mind their own freaking business but before I got a chance Addison interupted my thoughts.
" So Katelynn what brings you to Seattle? " She asked.
I wasn't quite sure what to say to this so, I just simply stated that I was here visiting visiting Meredith. At least it was half true. I was visiting Meredith with the hopes of staying. Just then I saw Meredith get up from her table and walk away. So I quickly exsused myself from the table and ran to catch up with her.
" Hey Mere" I said casually
"hey Katelynn" She replied.
There was a brief awkward silence, Then I spoke up.
"Mere, about me visiting,...I was thinking that ...I could just stay here, with you. ...Instead of going back."
"kate, I..."
Just them Dr. Dreamy walked up. I guess his name is .
"hey Meredith, I about to go into surgery, would you like to scrub in?"
"sure" she turned to me and started to say something but stopped and walked away.

I decided to take the ferry over to the home where my mom was staying. When I got there the nurse was a bit surprised to see me.
"Oh, I wasn't even aware that Ellis had another daughter, anywho follow me."
When I got to my mother room she already had a visitor. A man, I knew the face but couldn't put a name to it. But he knew who I looked at me and smiled.
" Hello Katie."
As soon as I heard his voice and he called me Katie. I knew who he was.
"Hello Richard"
Richard Webber had been my mom's affair. They were just friends when I was born. Richard was there in the delivery room when I was born. He was the first to hold me because my mom had no desire to hold me or see me. As soon as my mom said my name was Katelynn. He looked at me and smiled and said "hello Katie." and kissed me on the forehead. That's the only story my mom really told me. She really loved Richard. Meredith hates Richard and would love it if I did too but I have no reason to hate the guy.
"How are you Katie?
" I am ok, how are you?"
"oh, I'm not to bad when did you arrive in town?''
" I got into town today"
" Oh... well ... Welcome back.... well I will leave and let you visit with your mother"
" No don't go, I havn't seen my mom in 4 years. And I'm nervous. Stay with me please"
"ok I'll say"
so we walked in the room together. I saw my mom sitting there. Writing away acting like she doesn't have alzheimer's.
"Hi Mom"
" Don't call me mom, I only have 2 stupid daughters and I don't need another one. who are you the a nurse?"
"No mom, it's me Katelynn"
" Katelynn is only 10 and she is living with her aunt and uncle, thank goodness. now maybe Richard will take me back. I know the reason he would take me back was because I was pregnant and especially when I had Katelynn. He didn't want her. He hates children. And he certainly didn't want to be katelynn's father. It's her fault I'm not happy"
I could feel my eyes starting to whell up and I couldn't look at Richard afraid that this was the truth. I knew it probably was
"Mom, it's me Katelynn. I'm 14 now and back to visit"
Ellis looked confused. A flash of anger came across her face. She looked at me and realized that I was indeed her youngest daughter.
" Get out! I hate you. you are the biggest mistake of my life. Get out"
A tear ran out down my cheak and I ran out of the room. I went out side and sat on the steps. I heard the door open and Richard sat down besides me. He put his arn around me.
" she's wrong you know. I left her because I wanted to work out my marriage and because I think she deserves better. You were the reason it was so hard. I loved you. and she didnt care about you. or Meredith either. you were my angel and I used to often go to the day care and visit you. You spent many nights with my wife and I at my house. "
"you used to sing to me. every night or when ever I woke up with a nightmare. I remember I used to sing it to myself every night. "
" yes I did" And then Richard started singing.
" hush now katie,dont say a word, you're my little angel baby. sleep now little angel and I will be here when you awake. dream sweet dreams my little katie. don't you worry everything will be ok, everything will be ok. and I'll be here when you awake,my precious little baby."
He stood up and reached down for my hand to help me up. I gave him a hug.
"Thank you Richard."
He drove me back to the hospital. Meredith walked up to me.
"Ready to go back to my house Katelynn?"
"Yeah."
So she drove me there and made up a bed for me on the coach.
"Katie, my life is a mess right now. I have two roommates and Derek might move in to. I have no room for a teenager in my life. I'm sorry Katie. I think you should go back."
I wanted to tell Meredith what was going on. I really did, but I just couldn't. So I just muttered goodnight and shut off the lamp.
So the next day I went to the hospital with Meredith and got Addison to do a pregnancy test on me. And I was indeed 4 months along. Addison noticed some of my bruises. She put her hand on my shoulder.
"Katie, if you ever need to talk to someone. I'm here"
There was just something about Addie that just made her easy to talk to. I could feel my eyes burning. stupid hormones
" I've been living with my mom's sister and her huspand. and my aunt spends like every moment at the hospital and for the past 4 years my uncle has been... "
I burst out crying and Addie just held me. wispering "its ok Katie."
"he raped me, and now im pregnant. he used to beat me and treatned to kill me if I ever told anyone. you can't tell Meredith!"
" I won't. I'm so sorry Katie. But you have to understand something. It's not your fault.!"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, I'm a pregnant 14 year old... with no where to go because my sister doesn't want me and I can't go back to stay with my aunt.
Meredith walked up to me, with a slight smile on her face.
" K I called aunt Ellen, she's exspecting you." she said
" I am not going back there Meredith. I would live on the streets first" I said in a very pushy tone,
"well you dont have much of a choice. no one else will take you in. No one wants you"
"I do " said a familiar voice I turned around it was Addison.
Meredith got a mean look on her face. "but out Addison"
"No. you can not just shove this girl out of your life. If you don't want her, I do! I adore that child. she is a sweetheart "
She turned to me, "Katie, I don't know If I'm staying in Seattle. I might be moving to L.A. but I would love for you to come live with me. I would love to be your legal guardian, that is if you want me to be."
" I would love that."
Merediths face went blank. " Katelynn? are you sure this is what you want. ?"
"Yes Meredith it is. I need someone to care about me. and Meredith I'm pregnant"
"your WHAT?"
"Pregnant. about 4 months along. I need to have a stable enviorment. Meredith your life is a mess, but so is mine.
