Jo opened her eyes, everything was blurry. Why was she in a hospital bed? She looked around for Alex, she turned her head to the left and saw Meredith sitting in a chair.

"What happened?" Jo asked.

"You don't remember?" Meredith replied.

"The last thing I remember is…. I don't know."

"I'll be right back," Meredith said, "I'm going to page Derek."

Jo was left alone. She didn't know what was going on. What had happened? Her face was throbbing. She moved her hand up to touch her face. She winced because the pain was too much. She looked down at her arm which had a big purple colored bruise on it. How did this happen? Meredith walked back into the room.

"Derek will be here soon," Meredith said, "Did you remember anything else while I was gone?" "Well, I remember scrubbing in on Christina's surgery, the little boy with the heart murmur… His name was ummm a… Tyler Holden." Jo said.

Meredith picked up her tablet off the table and began tapping.

"The surgery performed on Tyler Holden was 4 months ago."

"What?! I lost 4 months of my memory?!" Jo exclaimed

"We'll just wait for Derek to get here before we make any assumptions."

Derek walked in seconds later.

Meredith turned her head. She got up and walked over to Derek. She began whispering words Jo could not make out. What were they saying? What were they not telling her?

"What are you saying?" Jo said.

The whispering continued.

"What aren't you telling me!" Jo yelled.

"Calm down Jo," Meredith said.

Meredith returned back to the chair beside her hospital bed and Derek made his way to the end of her bed.

"Jo," he said, "When Alex found you, you were on the ground. We can assume you hit your head on the metal frame of the bed. We did some scans and found major bleeding in the left side of your brain. In the OR, the bleeding was more excessive than we thought before. Honestly, that you're alive is a miracle."

Hundreds of questions raced through Jo's head.

"How did I get all of these bruises?"

Dr. Shepherd hesitated for a second.
"Well um… What we think is that Jason Meyers did this. The police are still looking for him."

Even the mention of his name made Jo sick to her stomach.

"He… he almost killed me?"

Meredith nodded in response.

"Where's Alex? Is he ok?" Jo asked.

"He's fine, he'll be here soon. Security is holding him." Meredith replied.

"Why?"

"In the ER, he refused to leave your side. When April told him to go, he fought back. Some doctors tried to forcefully remove him but...he ended up punching one of the ER doctors. Fortunately, the doctor only had a bloody nose and isn't pressing charges."

"I need him now." Jo said.

"He'll hopefully be here soon, try to get some sleep." Meredith said back.

Derek and Meredith got up and left. Jo sat there alone, in silence. She knew she wouldn't be able to fall asleep without Alex.
