AN- This is a bit of a lighter chapter, the last few have been a bit rough, and it's only going to get worse, so I figured you needed a bit of everyones favorite ship... BREREDITH!
"Brian?" Meredith finally asked, noticing her boyfriend twitching a little in bed.
"Meredith?" He asked, his voice weak and terrified. "Meredith where are you?"
"I'm right here Bri." She replied softly, trying to send reassurance over to him. She wanted more then anything to get up and give him a hug and hold his hand, but she couldn't.
"Meredith where are you? Why can't I see you? I'm not-" His voice broke.
Meredith felt herself nod, but then she realized it again. He couldn't see her. "Yeah babe."
He nodded a small nod. "Mer can I have a hug?" For a second he sounded like a little kid, and it took everything Meredith had in her to not burst into tears. But she had to stay strong for Brian. He was suffering here.
"Bri, baby, I'm sorry I can't get up." Her voice almost broke on that, she couldn't say that she was paralyzed. She just couldn't. But Brian seemed to understand. He let out an almost cruel laugh.
"Well aren't we just the worlds most lucky couple." He said, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
Meredith almost laughed. "What a sight we'll be walking down the street together, you pushing my wheelchair while I scream at you which direction to go. The neighbors are gonna hate us."
"Yeah," Brian responded, and Meredith felt herself smile. They would be fine. They had to be. They were Breredith, the world's strongest couple. Meredith fingered her gift, and randomly threw it over to Brian's bed.
"Babe what just hit me?" Brian sounded so shocked and confused she laughed out loud.
"They're a gift from me Bri. I still had them in my bag from the merch, but I figured you'd want them more than our fans now. They're your pink sunglasses, so that way you can cover up the scars on your face and still look stylish as hell."
The smile on Brian's face almost made her forget for a second. "Meredith, you are literally the best. We'll get through this together, okay?" He slipped the glasses on, and when Meredith looked at his face, everything was normal again.
"Okay." Meredith grinned, and tapped her fingers excitedly. The two of them could make it through this. This was just their next great adventure.
