I don't own Grey's anatomy.

"Why are Avery and Kepner asleep on your couch?" Arizona asked walking behind Callie into the apartment.

"They looked so lost and alone yesterday you know they lived with Reed and Percy right I mean really no one could expect them to go back to that."

"No your right." Arizona sighed.

"Lets go to bed." Callie wrapped her arms around her girlfriend and they slowly made their way to their own bed.

Owen stumbled in half an hour later a sleeping Cristina in his arms. He walked past the sleeping pair giving them a sad look before shutting Cristina's door on them.

April's eyes fluttered open the sun light streamed over her. She jumped off the couch her heart pounding as she read the clock she was going to be late for rounds. Then it all hit her the shooting Reed and Percy dead. She squeezed her eyes shut as she stood in the middle of the living room.

"April." Someone touched her arm and she jumped turning around she punched them square in the eye.

"Ow April what the hell." She opened her eyes and her mouth dropped open.

"Jackson I'm so sorry." She dropped to the floor at his side.

"It's fine." Jackson cringed he was going to have a black eye that was for sure but he knew he shouldn't have touched her everyone was jumpy he couldn't blame her.

"I'll get you some ice." She jumped up and threw some ice in a wash cloth. "Here." She thrust it into his hands.

"Thanks." He applied it to his already bruising eye. "Sorry for startling you."

"It's fine." April shook her head. "Sorry for punching you."

"What happened to you?" Callie asked walking into the living room.

"April punched me on accident."

"I have to go." April stood up and pulled the hair tie off of her arm throwing her brown locks into a high ponytail.

"Where are you going?" Jackson asked

"I'm going to go and check on Doctor Shepard."

"Why?" Callie asked pouring a cup of coffee.

"I just I have to." she refused to say more she just rushed out the door.

"She feels like it's her fault that he was shoot it wasn't though It was the crazy man with the gun." They all turned to see Cristina standing in the doorway. She made her way over blurry eyed to pour a cup of coffee. Just then all their pagers went off. Jackson pulled his off the table and looked at it. "Chief wants to meet everyone in the parking lot."

"Well lets go then I'm going like this though." Callie gestured to her pajama's.

"Sounds like a plan." Jackson dumped the ice into the sink as Callie woke Arizona up and Cristina woke up Owen.

"Is the Chief crazy to call a meeting after all of this." Owen grumbled as he watched Cristina closely sure she was going to collapse any moment.

"We have to go." Cristina leaned into him as they walked out of the door and met Mark coming out of his apartment.

"Webber is off his rocker." He yawned. They crossed the street and found themselves in the parking lot of Seattle Grace-Mercy west.

Jackson scanned the parking lot looking for April. April who had taken only one step into the building before starting to shake. That's when her pager had went off and she'd sighed in relief to have an excuse to not go into the building. She stood on the pavement looking up at the building and seeing the horror that was the night before. "April." She turned to see Jackson waving her over and she walked towards her tiny group. Everyone seemed to be huddled into groups. She stood close to Jackson but not to close as they waited for Webber to get to the designated point.

"People." All eyes turned to Webber. "As you know Derek Shepard is in recovery right now so I'll be acting as chief well he recovers. "Anyone who was in the surgical wing during the shooting has three weeks off and has to be cleared by a psychologist before they can come back into surgery do I make myself clear?" Heads were nodding and a few yes's could be heard. "Good." He looked around at them.

"Funeral arrangements are being made for those that died. I'll make sure that information is available to those who wish to attend. You may all go home."

April was shaking she felt like she was going to throw up funerals she had to go to the funerals of Reed and Percy. She whimpered and Jackson wrapped his arms around her. "We'll be ok we'll make it April."

"I don't think we'll make it through this one." She whispered.

"Come one you're coming back with me." Callie rallied them towards her.

"Excuse me." They all turned to see Meredith standing in front of them. "April Jackson can you come here please." She waved them over.

"What is it Meredith?" Jackson asked guiding April with him she felt a bit put out by that but she also knew she might actually collapse if she was let go of.

"I want you to come stay at my house ok we have the room and you can't keep living on Callie's couch." She didn't say anymore just threw a set of keys at them.

"Thanks." April stuttered.

Meredith just watched the girl she cried with and thought of what's she'd had been like if she'd lost Cristina. What she had been like when she'd lost George and she just nodded.

"Do you have your car?" April asked Jackson as they walked towards Callie and the group.

"Yeah Why?"

"To get us to Meredith's."

"Of course." Jackson sighed as he looked down at the keys in his hands maybe this was what him and April needed a fresh start for both of them. He knew they'd have to go to the apartments eventually maybe not permently but they had to get their stuff but for now this would be their safe haven. "Lets go." He sighed. Tightening his grip on her.
