Stitches

Maria smiled as she kissed her sleeping daughter. She wondered if she will ever find someone that will love her and her daughter the way her old boyfriend did before he passed. "I'm only doing this for you, Isabella." She says. "Mommy will be home later."

"Mama."

Maria smiled as she looked at her daughter. "I love you, my beautiful baby girl."
~~~
When Maria got to work, she stopped walking as she saw her sister talking to Derek. She may not be close to Meredith like she is her baby sister, but she hates when a guy thinks he can win her back. "You know, you should have taken the hint when she dumped your ass." Derek looked at her. "Just leave Meredith alone for awhile." She tells him. "Till you figure out what you really want."

"Thanks, Maria."

"Hey, I may be pissed off at my own friend for right now, but you just need to know the truth."

"Thank you."

Maria saw the elevator was full making her take the stairs. She walked up to hear Burke, but she wasn't worried as she had to clock in and get to work.

"It's drugs."

Maria looked at the x-ray. "Um..are you sure that's balloons." She says. "Something tells me that those are something that is shape of a balloon."

"Are you sure?'

"Ask Alex."

"What are you doing later? I would like to come by and see Isabella and spend time with you." Meredith says.

"Nothing. You know that already." Maria says as she walked away.
~~~
Maria smiled as she walked with her tray in her hand. She saw her friends just to find dolls with no heads. "Okay, I'm walking for away." She said as her sister grabbed her arms. "Really?"

"Maria, please. I need my sister."

Olivia walked around them as she was upset. "Oh, boy. A secret is about to happen and I'm going to go over to Alex's table."

"Nope." She says. "You are sitting down."

Maria sat down as she started eating not listening to Meredith trying to figure out why George won't give Olivia another chance. "There's another girl he wants." She mumbled causing Izzie to laugh at her.

"Maria..."

Maria continued to start eating again. She choked on her food and looked at Cristina. "Can we please talk about something else?"

"New subject."
~~~
"Hello?" Maria says as called Mikey. "How's Isabella?"

Addison stopped listening to her. She wondered who Isabella was and why she was checking in. Maria hung up her phone and walked away never seeing Addison. She sighed as her daughter was okay and knew she needed to get back to work.

Maria saw George with Derek. "What's going on?"

"Saving a patient." He says.

"Need help."

George grabbed her as they walked with Derek. She saw that they stopped a doctor and saw what George was informing her and Derek. "If she is still alive, Dr. Shepherd will need a E.G.G. and a M.R.I." She tells the doctor. "Our jobs is to save these people's lives. Not wait till she is declared dead because you want to be a selfish bastard."

"Dr. Grey." She looked at Burke. "I got it from here."

Maria walked away not caring what is going to happen.
~~~
"Maria." She stopped and looked at Addison. "Let's talk. Just us girls."

"Why?"

"I need a friend and I think you do too." Maria nodded. "Will you give me a shot at being your friend?"

"Sure. Let's start with what happened between you and Derek. Unless you want to start talking about other things first and work our way there." She says.

"Let's talk about other things first and the two of us can work our way up to knowing our personal lives." Addison says. "I'll see you later."

"See ya." Maria says as she walked away from Addison. "Addison!"

"Yes?"

"I'm not worried about what is going on with my sister. If you want to, I'm willing to work under you."

Addison looked at her. "I'll think about it, Dr. Grey."

"Thank you." She says as she walked away.

Addison smiled as she may have a new friend.

Sorry it's not like the show. It's hard to put Maria in there right now.
