Mark said he loved me. Mark kissed me. Mark is in a bed with me right now, and he was here all night. Mark loves me. I love Mark.

Thinking about him that way again and knowing he feels the same way is such a strange feeling now. I suddenly remember Julia. What about her? Mark can't date both of us.

I hear a knock on the door, and Dr. Walker, the doctor who preformed surgery on my legs, comes into my room.

"Hello Dr. Grey. How are you?" he asks.

"I'm fine," I reply.

"We'll be taking you all to Seattle in a few hours, and you'll start physical therapy there," Dr. Walker explains.

"Okay, thank you," I reply.

"Meredith Grey and Christina Yang want to come in to see you," he says.

I look over at Mark and see that he woke up. I want to talk to him in private about us, but I also want to see the others.

"Let them in," I say.

Meredith and Christina walk over to my bed. Christina's arm is in a sling and Meredith's thigh is bandaged, but they're both smiling.

Meredith brings over two chairs, and she and Christina sit down by my bed.

"How are you guys doing?" Meredith asks.

"I'm so tired of being asked that question! Tell me how you're doing," I say.

"Okay, okay," Meredith says, laughing.

Meredith explains that she's fine but Derek is injured badly, and that it was her idea to have us all sedated. Christina says she's fine and Arizona has to go see Callie to see if her leg can be salvaged, but it's highly unlikely. I already knew all of this, but there's a concerned look on Mark's face.

"What happened to Derek?" he asks.

"His hand was hurt in the crash. Callie will operate on it in Seattle. Derek wanted her to operate because he knows she's the best," Christina says.

A few minutes later, Bailey walks in and tells us that it's time to be sedated and sly back to Seattle. Meredith gives me a quick hug and walks out with Christina. I hug Mark.

"See you later, Little Grey" he says.

I nod. I can't speak. I can't go on a plane again.

Bailey wheels him out, but she saw the concerned look on my face. After Mark is situated back in his bed, she comes back.

"What's wrong?" she asks.

"Nothing," I mutter, looking down.

"Come on, Grey. I know you better than that."

"I'm scared to go on-on the plane," I admit.

"You'll be sedated, you won't even know," Bailey says.

"That doesn't change the fact that I'll be on a plane."

"Look, Grey, I wish there was another way, but there isn't. We need to get you all to Seattle as soon as possible, especially Derek and Arizona. You're all stable right now, so it's the best time."

I nod. "I know that. I'm still nervous though."

"You'll be fine," Bailey says.

Another doctor comes in to sedate me. Right before I pass out, I see Bailey give me a small smile. I don't know if I got to smile back before the sedative kicked in.
