Lizzie Grey M.D.

♡12•Our Sister Hates Us•12♡

I woke up the next morning to someone shaking me.

"Lizzie, wake up." A familiar voice said. I woke up and staring at me was Derek Shepherd.

"Dr. Shepherd? What's going on?" I rose up from my pillow but when I looked back, my pillow was not a pillow but Carter Peralta's chest.

"Oh shoot." I turned back to Derek. "Please don't tell Meredith. I swear we didn't do anything. Look!" I took my blanket off. "Fully clothed. Very very clothed. Not even a kiss." 

"I won't tell Meredith but I can't say the same for them." Dr. Shepherd gestured outside the room where a lot of nurses and doctors were gathered outside.

"Meredith and Lexie are gonna kill me." I hit my head.

"Lizzie?" I turned to my right and Chris was starting to wake up.

"Hey, Chris. Go back to sleep, bud." I ruffled his hair a bit.

"Mkay." He closed his eyes and went back to sleep. I turned back to Dr. Shepherd.

"Thank you for not telling Meredith. I'm gonna go to the locker room." I walked away in a sort of walk of shame.

Luckily, Lexie was already waiting for me and she looked really sad and stressed.

"Lizzie, how was your night? Did you sleep well?" She stood up and tried to smile.

"I slept fine, Lexie. How was your date?" I smiled. Thankfully, my humiliation was for Lexie's happiness, otherwise I can't even imagine what I would do.

"Uh..it was great. Mhm." Lexie avoided my eyes.

"Was he rude? Oh my God he didn't pay for dinner?" 

"No uh nothing like that. He just...lives with some people."

"A frat brother? You dated a frat brother? Oh Lexie, this one's on you." I got my bag, got inside the car and we headed home in complete silence.

Lexie and I had a week off but the entire week was spent, cleaning up after Dad and Lexie calling Meredith constantly, saying she was sorry. She never told me why she was sorry, she just was.

A week later, the other interns were staring at me but Lexie didn't notice since she was in her own bubble of sadness and despair.

I put on my doctor's coat as we rushed to the outside of the E.R. where Dr. Yang was waiting for us.

"The E.R. can be a candy store. You've got car crashes, impalements." Dr. Yang went to a nurse. "What do you got?"

"Sprained ankle and an infected bunion." Even she looked depressed.

"It can also strip you of your will to live." Dr. Yang sighed. "Okay, go, troll, find me something good." I wasn't allowed to work on cases without other interns and since, the other interns hate me, I work with Lexie. Naturally, I followed her but she was heading to Dr. Yang instead.

"Dr. Yang?" 

"Yeah." She looked extremely depressed and pissed off at the same time.

"Has Meredith said anything to you about me cause she's been avoiding me for days." Lexie said with a worried look on her face.

"You know, what did I say to you about talking to me about your personal life?" Dr. Yang rolled her eyes at Lexie when the ER doors burst open and a woman came in crying with her baby.

"Help! My-my baby. I-I was carrying her down the stairs and I fell, and she hit her head, she was crying in the car and she's not crying anymore." She held her baby closer to her chest as a nurse tried to reach for her.
