Lunas POV

Currently staring at the wall I realised I had pushed everyone away. And that was something I truly hated myself for. The sudden thoughts of I am not the same person who was circling my head since the shooting but had finally made their way to the surface was the one thing that was leading my behaviour.

'Hey' Mark said walking into the room.

'Hi' I say not taking my eyes off the wall.

'You know luna we care that's why we are here' He says.

Don't cry, Luna. Don't Cry. Damn it.

'Luna please just let someone in' He says patting my back.

Then the tears start to just fall out of my eyes.

'Mark I don't know how I don't know who I am I say turning towards him.

'Oh Luna, that's fine. We are here for you. We can treat with kid gloves and we can sit with you and talk just please come back I miss my favourite resident. And Seattle is your home. You may not know it but that's the reason you came to Addison because you self consciously knew we'd find you.'

'Mark I can't even look myself in the mirror let alone face them. I broke myself without even knowing.' I say looking at him.

'Luna you are a very smart, sassy and empowering women who I have had the pleasure to know. If you can't see that then I will continue to remind you of it until you realise it yourself. Because we are a family and what does that mean?' He said wiping my tears off my face.

'No one gets left behind' Derek says.

'I'm sorry I...' I start to talk before he buts in.

'I heard um a lot of it and for you to know Luna you are my family and as Mark say we will remind you of who you are if you don't always see it.' He says before bringing me into a hug.

It seems to cringe but everything I've been through has led me to these amazing people and I don't know why I never thought they were my actual family. Until now.

'Okay now, can you leave the practice so we can work?' Amelia says pulling my suitcase behind her.

'Is that all my stuff?' i ask looking at it.

'Yeah, Addison sent someone to get it packed. And Luna don't be a stranger same to you two. Next just call?' She says before hugging us all.


On the plane, I was sitting between Mark and Derek and it reminded me of when they came and got me after the Army and Boston and hit me they were my family.

'So you guys gonna catch me up on anything?' I ask waking them up.

'Uh, Owen is Chief!'

'Me and Meredith are trying to Adopt a lovely girl called Zola.'

'Arizona and Callie had the baby.'

'and we have both missed you so much!' Derek finished off before looking at me.

'There's a lot that's happened. Okay so gonna have a tough time fitting back in?' I mutter to myself before wondering about one specific person they didn't mention.


Once Mark pulls up to Meredith's house the sudden thoughts hit me. It's been six months.

I take the suitcase from the boot and grab my backpack too. Just stood staring at the house. The first place that felt like home since Derek and Addisons. But I'm back.

Walking in and seeing the mess on the floor and the smell of coffee spread throughout the house. I knew it was a good decision to come back.

'So which room is mine?' I ask Derek.
