Her pager beeped loudly pulling her from her dreams. She moaned and rolled over looking at the clock as she flipped on the light. She looked at her pager through on eye as she tried to get used to the light. She moaned and let her head fall. It was two in the morning and she was getting a 911 page. She put her feet on the floor and changed quickly. The rest of the house was dark, since Izzie started staying back at her apartment again. Meredith walked down the stairs grabbing her purse and walked out the door. Life as a doctor. Great.

She walked into the hospital to find it unusually calm. She groaned.
"What the hell?" She thought.
She walked down the hall to the nurses' station.
"I was paged?" She asked a nurse.
"Yeah, room 5682." The nurse answered and went back to work.
"Alex's room?" She thought thinking the worse. "Oh god."
She walked down the hall to the stairs. Her heart was pounding so hard as she ran up them. After reaching the ICU, she ran down the hall to see a few nurses standing around.
"What's going on?" Meredith said rushed.
Nobody answered. She pushed by them and stood in the doorway. Her eyes filled with tears.
