some kind of miracle
MADDISON AND LIAM SAT in the front of Liam's car, as Mark sulked in the back.
"I still don't get why Maddy couldn't sit in the back." He mutters.
"I was just in an accident." Maddison tells him.
"So?" Mark raises an eyebrow. "And I care, why?"
"Oh, please." Maddison scoffs. "You cried after seeing me." She does his impression. "I was so worried about you, sniff sniff, I'm never letting you out of my sight again, sniff sniff."
Mark and Maddison look at each other.
"A Chanel gift card and we never talk about this again." Mark offers.
"Deal." Maddison nods, and they shake hands.
"Call Bailey, and tell her you're okay." Liam tells her, handing her his phone.
"Was she worried about me?" Maddison grins.
"Yeah." Liam nods, as Maddison dials the resident's number. "And she also said she'll whoop your ass."
Maddison eyes widen and she goes to hang up, but it was already too late.
"Dr. William?" Bailey's voice comes.
"Dr. Bailey..." Maddison replies.
"Maddison... Eleanor... Sloan..." Bailey speaks in a dangerously slow voice.
"How do you even know my middle name?" Maddison chuckles, nervously. "I'm okay, Dr. Bailey."
"Oh, you are not going to be okay when I get my hands on you. Why do you always get in trouble?" Bailey scolds. "Is it so hard for you to sit at home and, I don't know, watch TV! Read a book!"
"I'm sorry, Dr. Bailey..." Maddison tells her.
"Save it." Bailey sighs. "About Meredith and Cristina..."
CALLIE LAID ON A bed in the clinic to give blood, while Izzie looks through the bags of blood.
"These need to go to the blood bank for testing thanks." Izzie says to a nurse.
"What are those for?" Callie asks.
"Meredith is AB." Izzie replies. "And Maddison's O neg."
"We haven't heard anything about Maddison. And Meredith... she's been down a long time, but you know, they're strong. We shouldn't give up." Callie tells her.
"I wasn't planning to but thanks." Izzie snaps, making Callie stand up and walk to her.
"Okay. Is this stress related or am I doing something specific to piss you off?" Callie asks her. "Because believe me we need to pull together."
"Not we." Izzie replies.
"What?" Callie asks.
"You keep going on about how we need to do this for Meredith and Maddison and how strong Meredith and Maddison are like you know them." Izzie replies.
"I do know them." Callie replies. "Meredith's a nice person and Maddison's my friend!"
"No! George, Cristina and me, we know them. We're their family." Izzie replies. "We were here long before you and George started fooling around."
"Hey! He is my husband!" Callie tells her.
"Stop saying that like it means something." Izzie snaps. "It is a piece of paper. You act like it gives you history or weight."
"Enough, enough! I will not be run off." Callie tells her. "I am here, George wants me here. And if you can accept that, that I love him to, then maybe we could be, I don't know, friends. Or you can keep on the way you are and be that person that George used to know."
"You don't get to decide that." Izzie says. "George decides."
"Oh, I know what he'll decide." Callie replies. "And if I were you I would think about it long and hard because you cannot afford to lose another friend. Not when people around you keep..."
Callie trails off, as Izzie looks offended.
"Keep dropping like flies? Is that what you were about to say?" Izzie asks, storming away.
"WHERE ARE YOU?" MADDISON says into the phone, as they pulled up near the hospital.
"Maddison?!" Cristina's shocked voice come. "You're okay! Where are you?! Are you hurt-"
"I'm in front of the hospital. I'm going to see Meredith." Maddison tells her. "And I... need you... to come with me..." Cristina doesn't answer. "Cristina?"
The phone hangs up and Maddison's eyebrows furrow. They all get out of the car.
"You absolute idiot!" Cristina's voice yells, as she runs out of Joe's and sprints up to the other intern and throws her arms around her.
The both hug, as Cristina had a death grip on her.
"I'm okay..." Maddison whispers. "I'm sorry I made you worry."
"You better be..." Cristina mutters, holding her tighter. "I'll kick your ass if something like this happens again."
MADDISON LEANS ON A wall, as Cristina stood beside Meredith's bed.
Meredith tries to mumbles something.
"Did she just..." Maddison walks up to Meredith.
"Did you just say something?" Cristina asks. "Did you just speak?"
"Okay, Mer, we don't understand you." Maddison whispers to the girl, as Cristina holds her face.
"Try... try again, Mer... try again for us, okay?" Cristina shutters.
Meredith tries again, but it's incoherent, making Cristina and Maddison share a worried look.
"What... I... We can't." Maddison whispers. "Mere, come on, please..."
"Please, please don't be." Cristina lets out a breath, then puts her hands on her head. "Your brain works, ok? So all you need to do is form a word, please."
The two look on in hope.
"Ouch." Meredith mumbles, and slowly opens her eyes.
"We heard that!" Maddison cheers, as the three exchange looks of happiness.
"Oh, God. Oh, hi!" Cristina jumps, and turns to the two. "I'm getting married to Burke! Not that, that should be anywhere on your list of thought right now. But just in case either of you slips in the hall later or..."
"Oh, my God!" Maddison lets out, her jaw dropping.
Cristina lets out a relieved breath.
"You are the two people I wanted to tell." Cristina says. "Thank you for not dying."
The three hug.
The door opens and Liam walks in.
"You're okay." Liam says, looking at Meredith. "That's great."
"Yeah..." Meredith says in a croaky voice.
He then turns to Maddison.
"Ralph... he's has been rushed to surgery..." He tells her. "He had a puncture over an open fracture but no one noticed."
The door opens once again, and Bailey rushes in.
She looks around the room.
"Meredith's awake." Liam tells the resident, who looks at her, not knowing how to tell him.
"Liam..." Bailey whispers. "You mother... Irene's being taken to the OR..." Liam's smile drops. "She's gonna need fasciotomy, it's nothing that serious but-"
Before Bailey could finish, Maddison stumbles upon a tray, and they all turn to her.
"This is a bad time to tell you guys, but..." Maddison mutters. "I might have a concussion..." She lifts up her shirt, and there was purple bruising around her chest. "And maybe internal bleeding..." Everyone's eyes widen. "I think... thoracotomy is the way to go..."
Liam grabs her before she fall down.
