Blake watched Owen instruct the maintainers workers. "If there's something I didn't miss it was this damn weather."

Owen turned to the fellow "Uh.. we should clear the air, the last time.." he trailed off "Look I had no right to act like I did, but I dream about that crash all the time , I blame myself for being to tired to read, nothing I say will ever fix it—""

Connor laughed softly "Hiya Connor Tyson the intern ."he said and held his hand out.

"Owen Hunt the chief of surgery." Owen greeted the enthusiastic man.

Blake hummed "Lovely now that we're all acquainted I believe there was a mention of a meeting chief?"

Owen nodded Blake followed with Connor by her side who made little comments about the different culture and and processes his noticed so far. It was a change especially since Connor had finished med school in Italy and was matched with the hospital in Milan.

When they reached the general meeting area Owen walked to the front and stepped up on the step to make himself seem by everyone.
