the odd shephard out

7

The three shephards walked down the main hall way of the hospital with meredith.
Amelia was there to check up on todd who she bought in the other day then she and Isabella are going to explore seattle and have some girl time which they havent had for a very long time.

"Wheres our younger siblings" a voice rang through the reception of the hall way causing the shephard siblings to stop dead in their tracks  revognising thr voice.

Meredith turned to derek to tell him something but he wasnt next to her she turned around to find her husband frozen to the spot next to his sister all sharing the same frightened look.

"Derek you okay?" Meredith asked curiously
"Nancy"  Amelia spoke
"Mum" Derek pointed out
"Cc.. cornor" Isabella wobbled panic wrapping its self around her. Taking over.

The shephards continuef walking ahead, ready to face what was waiting for them but they hadnt realised that Isabella was still standing behind them terrified.

Isabella knew one way out, truth. So she reached out to grab Amelias hand pulling her into a side room slamming the door shut behind them.

"Isabella, whats going on?" Meredith asked, spooking isabella as she thought it was Amelia she had dragged in behind her.
"Mm.. Meredith im sorry i thought you were Amelia umm you can leave sure your busy" Isabella pulled herself together, placing her hand on the door knob ready to let meredith out.

Meredith placed her hand on top of Isabellas and shock her head.
"No i am staying here" meredith firmly said.
"You dont need to im fine"
"Isabella, your my family my sister, im staying. Somethings going on. You don't need to tell me but i will help you" Meredith sweetly said.
"Thank you".

Out in the hall way derek meet the famous connor and reunited with his family and sister.
"Derek" Nancy cheered as she walked up to her brother pulling him into a hug. "Sorry cheif Derek shephard" nancy joked.
"Derek so proud of you" His mum grinned hugging her son tightly.

Amelia went unnoticed something she was use to, so she stood next to mark. Waiting for the family reunion to turn into a row.

"Wheres Isabella?" Connor belowed at Derek.
Derek turned around ready to find isabella hiding behind him but she wasnt there nor was meredith.
"She was right there" derek noted.
"Well she isnt now is she where is my girlfriend" connor shouted.

"Girlfriend" derek and Mark jumped onto their feet.
"Did she not mention she had a boyfriend" connor asked shocked.
"No she did not" Mark said firmly squaring up to Connor.

"Right everybody lets calm down and focus on finding Isabella" Carolyn, the shephard siblings mum suggested trying to defuse growing tension.
"I will page Meredith to see if she seen her incase she was mistaken for a doctor"
"That would be ironic she doesnt want to be a doctor she wants to paint for a living" Nancy bitterly said but she was ignored.
"Mark you and Amelia go look for her and i will take you three to my office while we wait we will find her" Derek reasured them walking towards the elevator.
Dereks phone then started to ring he looked and it was meredith.
"Excuse me its meredith" derek excused.

"Merdith" derek said as he answered the phone trying to hid the panic.
"Shes with me" Meredith quickly said, she moved away from Isabella then whispered "but shes terrified, the minute she saw connor she froze"
"Okay well if you need to stay thats fine" derek spoke trying to throw Connor off the trail.
"Im going to take her somewhere in the hosptial so he cant find her. I will let you kniw where we are so you can join us then make next steps" meredith explained
"Okay, thats great. Im taking my mum Nancy and Connor to my office, incase Isabella goes there, Amelia and Mark are looking for her too  could you keep an eye out" derek continued covering for his sister.
"Alright bye"
"Bye" derek then put the phone down.

Once he put the phone down everyone looked at him with concern and intrigue.
"She hasnt seen her but shes been pulled into an emergency surgery. She will keep an eye out. Lets go" derek smiled showing them to the elevator.

"Shes going to columbia in a week to med school, I'm in my 2nd year, going into neuro. Your work is amazing. Isabella hasnt decided on neror cardio'' Connor ushed over derek.
"Cardio" Carolyn stated "Neuro" nancy stated too.
"She will decide in time" derek smiled as the elevator doors shut.

"Their gone" meredith told Isabella who was siting on the floor with her head in her hands imagining what could happen next the worse case.
"They are" Isabella jumped up with hope.

"We're going to get you out of here and somewhere he wont find you but first lets find you some scrubs then you will blend into the background" Meredith said as she opened the door.

They both walked out of the room, both continually looking other there shoulder or around corners just incase connor had got bored and took the search  into his own hands.

"Here wear these" meredith smiled handing her scrubs and a lab coat.
"My sisters would freak if they saw me in these. Just another Doctor shephard" Isabella sighed looking at her self in the mirror with her three siblings looking back at her.

"What should i do with these" Isabella asked wavung her clothes at meredith.

"Ahh, give them to me" meredith quickly thought as she saw somewhere walk pass that she recognised.
"Alex" meredith called
"What" Alex snapped
"Can you put these with my stuff please" meredith asked pushing Isabellas clothes into Alexs hands.
"Fine. Hello again Isabella" Alex flirted but isabella shoved it off.
"Go"

"Where now?" Isabella half heartedly asked
"Neuro" Meredith suggested
"He will go straight there. We need somewhere he would never guess" Isabella suggested.
"Research lab" meredith jumped grabbing Isabellas hand taking her to safety.
