Character: Meredith; Rating: K; Prompt: River
Summary: The flow of your friendship was always there, like a personal law of nature. Meredith thinks about Cristina. Set post episode 7.07. Spoilers for that episode.
You can't help me.
Cristina's words insinuate themselves between you and Derek, into all your dreams, and you wake up un-refreshed, firmly on your side of the bed and totally, abjectly alone.
She was your constant. Beneath everything - the good, the horrific, even the mind-numbingly mundane - the flow of your friendship was always there, steady, unquestioned, like a personal law of nature.
Now she hates you and suddenly the rules you thought you knew and knew you trusted have changed, and you don't know what to do.
(You'd ask for some advice. Except the person you'd ask?
Would be Cristina.)
