How To Save A Life

"Mrs Paulson? My name is Dr Grey, you're at the hospital right now. You've had a pretty bad accident but everything's going to be alright, just stay with us, please,"

Donna's eyes moved around the sterile OR in a rapid motion, her heart exploding in her chest. She couldn't feel anything, even mere breathing was too much for her. She slowly closed her eyes, feeling her limbs go even number every second now. Everything was going to be fine, everything HAD to be fine. And with that the world around her went black for the second time this day.

"Mr Specter? You're registered as Donna Paulson's emergency contact. There has been an accident, sir and she's in surgery right now. Please come to Mt. Sinai as soon as possible, we don't have any further details just yet."

Harvey didn't even get the chance to respond when he heard the click of the phone. He stood there, not able to move, talk or do anything productive when his mother sprinted over to him.

"Sweetie, what is it? Is she alright? What happened?" Harvey just shook his head, dialling Ray's number and trying to fill in his mother without starting to cry. He had to be strong now, he owed Donna to care for her for once and he was not going to fuck this up. She needed him now.

"Accident, need to go to Mt Sinai." he mumbled, grabbing his jacket and jogging out of the door, Mary following suit. She knew better than to go into it any further. Ray pulled up in front of Harvey's condo 10 minutes later and the both of them got into the car without saying a single word. The situation was too overwhelming to grasp and Harvey didn't really had a desire to discuss it. He looked out the window, his hangover gone in only 10 seconds. He had no idea what would happen if Donna didn't make it out alive. He didn't know the extent of the accident yet and to be honest, he didn't really wanted to know too many details. He just wanted to hug her once more, put his nose in her flowery scented hair and simply enjoy her company. And maybe finally admit his feelings for her. He didn't know if HE was going to make it out alive if she wasn't.

Dr Meredith was just scrubbing in for her upcoming surgery, when she took some time to look at the woman on the table. She knew what happened, a car had hit her while she was crossing the street, possibly while running, she had seen her attire. The woman looked like she was in her mid-thirties, her name was Donna Paulson and she was a legal secretary. No children. Meredith couldn't stop thinking about what would happen to the people who love her if this surgery went wrong, somehow she was more affected by this case than by any of the others. Maybe because she was so young or so beautiful or maybe she was just going soft. Donna had mayor internal injuries due to the accident and she was an organ donor, which didn't really make the case any easier. Meredith was ripped out of her thoughts when her husband, Dr Derek Shepard, came in to help with the surgery. He was about to take care of any neurological problems that might appear and to help if he was needed.

"You okay?" he asked worriedly and she simply nodded.

"Yeah, it's going to be okay. She has some mayor injuries but we're gonna take care of her. A nurse already called her family, they're going to be here soon. I'm updating them as often as possible so we might need a second surgeon. I can't do it on my own, Derek"

"We already talked about that updating thing a long time ago, Meredith. You're not the wife in the waiting room anymore, you're her act like it."

"You still don't get it, do you? I already paged Richard and Bailey, I'm gonna update them." Derek just shook his head, getting even more worried about his rattled wife and Meredith just went into the OR.

"Alright everybody, it's beautiful day to save lives."

Harvey was waiting on an uncomfortable, grey plastic chair. He hadn't been here since his dad died 3 years ago and he didn't really miss it. His mom was finding something to eat for him now & he was happy to be alone to think for some moments. The nurse said Donna's doctor would update them every 30 minutes and the first update should be very soon. At least he hoped so. All he knew was that she was hit by a car while crossing the street and the mere thought was sending a cold shudder down his spine and made him grind his teeth. He couldn't protect her, he failed and now she had to fight for her life. Now, that things were finally on the right track, now that he has had some hope of getting a personal life with her. He rubbed his tired face, closing his eyes for 5 seconds, trying to clear his head.

"Hi, I'm Doctor Meredith Grey. Are you Mr Specter?" his head shot up and he was looking at the petite blonde surgeon in front of him. She was around Donna's age, her hair in locks and shoulder length, and her soft features calming him somehow.

"Yee-es, yes I am," he stuttered. "How is she?"

She stopped for a few seconds, starting to think of a way of telling him in the most careful way.

"You have to be aware of the fact that your wife is undergoing a major surgery right now. She has a lot of internal bleedings, broken ribs and her backbone was badly affected as well. We think we can manage it but there are a lot of complications that might appear in the next hours. We're doing our best, but we can't promise anything at this point now,"

She answered sadly and he rubbed his face once again. He was at a loss for words and tried everything in his power to keep the tears at bay.

"I'm gonna update you in around 30 minutes, stay strong. For her sake and for yours," she smiled compassionately and went back to the OR. Harvey fell back on his chair, his mother still hadn't returned. It was going to be a long day and he was not going anyway. For her sake and for his.

Harvey mad his way to the elevator. Donna has been in surgery for 4 hours now and Dr Grey wasn't going to update I'm for another hour now. They still didn't know how this surgery was going to end yet, but it sure as hell looked better than 4 hours before. He dragged his exhausted feet through the monotonic grey hallway, the desolated colours depressing him even more. There were pictures of The City here and there. Pictures of the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty and some of Central Park. The main tourist things and he started wondering what New York would be like without Donna. Without her perfect appearance every single day, without her witty comments about him or her comforting support if he needed it. He didn't want to have to live a life without her, going back to what he had been like 20 years ago. a useless, normal guy who had more struggles with himself than with the rest of the world. She made him extraordinary, she shaped him and he was forever grateful. He owed her and most importantly: He loved her more than anything in this world. The elevator dinged and he went out.

"What the hell happened, Harvey?" Mike whisper shouted at him, Rachel following him suit. Harvey had called them only 30 minutes ago and both of them showed up here as soon as possible. He filled them in on what happened,leaving Mike not able to close his mouth and Rachel crying on his shoulders. The three of them made their way back to the ICU, where Mary was already talking to Meredith Grey.

"You said you wouldn't update for another hour," Harvey asked and Meredith gave him that look once again. A look of fear and compassion.

"There have been some complications, Mr Specter. We had to revive her for a couple times now, her brain might have been underserved for an uncertain amount of time. Our Neurosurgeon is taking care of it right now but we can't say how much this incident affected her brain. I'm sorry, I fear we have to wait until she wakes up. If she wakes up."

Alright, new chapter in less than 24 hours, I guess that's record so far :D Thanks so much for your kind reviews on my last chapter, please keep up the amazing work guys!
