"Divorce?! They're divorced?!"

XXXX

Seattle Grace Hospital

Erika's P.O.V,

I felt my world crumble at those words. In a snap of a finger, my family was gone. They didn't even tell me. How can they not tell me? I had… and still have the right to know. I'm their daughter, for Pete's sake!

"This is some sick joke, right? You're kidding. They told me they were fine. They were working things out."

I turned to look at them, hoping they would laugh at me and tell me it's some kind of prank all along but all I got from them was looks of pity.

"Tell me what happened, Uncle Richard. Tell me every single, ugly, shameful detail. If I know my parents, they'll try to hide it from me. The divorce is an example of that." I said, really serious.

I was always a baby for my parents. I'm their only child. That's why it pains me so much that they kept this huge detail from me. Not knowing hurts more than not knowing from the start.

"Erika, I can't… It's for Addie and Derek to tell…"

"I don't care! Uncle Richard, I need to know" my voice broke and tears started to fall "I… I… I need to understand. NOW!"

General P.O.V.

Derek Shepherd and Addison Montgomery just got out of surgery. They operated on 6- month old conjoined twins. They were both in the NICU making sure the babies were doing okay post surgery. Derek was working on the chart of the twins while Addison was doing the charts of her other patients in the unit.

"Did you call Erika this week?" Addison asked. It was both their decision to leave Erika with Nancy while they were fixing their relationship. They didn't want their daughter to witness them going through a miserable time.

"Yeah." Derek said looking up from the chart "She said she has some big news to tell us and she wanted us to be together when she tells us."

Before Addison could reply, they were both paged by the nurse's station. When they arrived, they were led to the empty conference room where a speakerphone was set.

"Addie, Derek, it's me, Nancy."

Nancy couldn't help worrying about Erika. This past few weeks has been pure hell for the teenager. She had been taking several exams to graduate ahead of her peers. She was the smartest in her class and way more advanced academically. Her teachers really believe she is all set for college. She had been very mature through the whole ordeal, not succumbing up to the pressure. She knew any additional stress might just cause her niece to break. She had a nurse arrange a conference call with Derek and Addison, saying it was urgent. The three of them need to have a little talk before they see Erika.

The Webbers, Camille and Erika were in Camille's room, listening to Richard explain the situation. They transferred to a more private place, knowing that nothing travels faster than hospital gossip.

"Derek and Addison were trying to work it out. They even tried counseling, but Derek just can't seem to let go of what happened back in New York. When your father first arrived in Seattle, he had a one-night stand with one of the interns. Meredith Grey.

By the time Addison followed in Seattle, the one-night stand turned into a relationship. But during that time, Grey never knew your father is married. Derek broke up with Grey and chose your mother who was doing everything she can to fix everything but Derek can't let go.

He pined for Meredith while he and Addie were still married. It came to the point where he slept with Meredith during prom. Unfortunately, your mom found Grey's panties on the pocket of Derek's coat.

It was too much for your mother to take. It was a mutual decision that they should just get divorced."

All the information she received was too much for her to process. The stress of what happened the past few weeks took its toll on her. Before she knew it, her whole world turned black.

"Nancy, what is this all about? We are very busy people, you know." Derek said to his sister, a small smile forming.

"I know… I know… but so am I. Where do you find time to do other things between performing brain surgery and screwing your slutty intern?" Nancy commented sarcastically. That comment wiped the smile completely out of his face.

"She is not slutty."

"She is to us. As much as I want to discuss your slutty girlfriend, I'm not calling about her, it's about Erika."

"What's wrong? What happened? Is she okay?" Addison asked suddenly worried. Instinctively, Derek placed an arm around Addie in a semi-hug and trying to comfort her, while Addie was holding on to his free hand. They're always like this when the topic of the conversation was their daughter. They haven't discussed a thing when an extremely worried Richard entered the room.

"Richard, what happened? Is it Camille?" Addison asked. Not caring that the now-divorced Dr. Shepherds were in an intimate position, and they were talking to another person in the line, Richard told them the bad news.

"Derek, Addie, I know this is not a good time but it's an emergency. Erika has just been admitted in the hospital."

A/N: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I know I said I would let Erika meet her parents and Meredith in this chapter but I thought maybe I should just place it in the next chapter… Anyway, please review. I really want to know what you think… Thanks… 
