Sick and Tired

Chapter 10

I do not own Grey's Anatomy or any of its characters

TW: ED, SH

Meredith was not happy in the slightest the next morning. She kept ignoring Derek when he told her it was time to get up to go to the hospital. She just wanted to lay in bed all day and just sleep.

"Mer it's 9:30, we need to go. Bailey is going to be waiting for us." Derek told Meredith.

"Don't care" Meredith responded sullenly.

"Mer I'll carry you to the car. Don't think I won't. You need to go to the hospital."

"You wouldn't" she said giving him a death glare.

Derek walks over to where she is laying down and picks her up.

"Derek pit me down RIGHT NOW!" Meredith yelled, hitting him with her fists.

"No, we have to go to the hospital" Derek said as he walked through the house with Meredith struggling to get free from his arms.

"I HATE YOU!" Meredith yelled.

"This is for your own good Mer" he said as he puts her in the front seat of the car. She instantly turns to face the window to avoid looking at him.

They drive towards the hospital in total silence. Derek texts Bailey when they get there because he knows he's going to need help getting Meredith out of the car.

Bailey walks out of the hospital and heads towards their car while pushing a wheelchair.

Meredith sees Bailey pushing a wheelchair towards their car and her heart instantly sinks. She does not want to go in the wheelchair at all.

"Good morning Meredith!" Bailey says to her intern.

"It is NOT a good morning" Meredith mutters.

Bailey glances over at Derek who mouths sorry to her.

"Mer can you please come sit in this wheelchair please? Bailey asks her intern.

"No"

"Meredith please listen to Bailey."

"Nope."

"Meredith you need to get in the wheelchair" Derek tells her.

"Nope, no can do." Meredith crosses her arms over her chest and glares at both Derek and Bailey. "I'm not being admitted to the hospital. I'm fine. I don't have a problem. Besides if I were to be admitted I would check myself out immediately. So there"

"Meredith we both know you have a big problem. You refuse to eat and have lost so much weight. You are extremely underweight and that is affecting your health. Your body is extremely unhealthy. You are not thinking straight because you aren't eating. And also we already talked about that. We all know you would sign yourself out AMA. You will not be in charge of your health. Derek will be your health care proxy. He will be making all of the decisions related to your health. You will not be allowed to check yourself out or make any decisions about your health while you are in the hospital . I'm sorry sweetie but that's the way it's going to have to be. You aren't in the right mind to make those kinds of decisions." Bailey said.

"But... but you can't do that!" Meredith said crying.

"Yes we can and we are" Derek said. "Mer please get out of the car."

""Fine but I don't want you to visit me."

Derek was shocked at her response. Meredith sullenly got into the wheelchair and crossed her arms over her chest glaring at them and anyone who dared to look her way. Bailey wheeled her to her room.

"Meredith let me know when I can visit you. I love you." There was no response from Meredith.

Bailey helped Meredith into a hospital gown and is shocked by all of the old and new self harm scars covering Meredith's body.

"It's nothing" Meredith said covering herself with the blankets on her bed.

"I'm going to let you get situated and just relax and then I'll come back to put in an iv in you."

"No, no iv. Too many calories."

"Meredith, you're not allowed to make that decision remember? And also it's just fluids. There's no calories in it"

Bailey leaves the room and Meredith silently cries and eventually cries herself to sleep. She doesn't even notice a little while later when Bailey comes back to put an iv in her arm.

I hope you liked this chapter! I'm off to go watch another episode of grey's before I go to bed!
