Let's give them something to talk about, my friend,
A topic that will make conversations never end.
With our shared interests and stories to share,
We'll ignite discussions, creating an atmosphere.
So let's keep the conversations flowing, without a care.

That morning, when they got to the hospital, they were earlier than normal, so they could take their time getting dressed, and for some — George — that meant eating his breakfast. Cristina, Amory, Izzie, and George waited by one of the nurses' station to wait for Bailey. Izzie was drinking coffee, George was eating a banana, Cristina looked like she would fall asleep at any moment, and Amory was slumped against the nurses' station. She yawned, rubbing her eyes with her fingertips to try and wipe away her tiredness.

Last night, George had kept her up — and not in the way you think — it wasn't him, per se, it was the thought f him. She had done her second load of thinking that night with George sleeping next to her. And with nothing but him to look at, she watched his peaceful face as her mind raced. Sure, they were together, but something felt off to Amory. Like, someone was hiding something. Maybe, he was keeping something from her. Or maybe, she was keeping a secret, but she wouldn't know what she had yet to tell him. Or maybe, it was nothing serious and she was just worried because it seemed like she was worrying about something these days.

"Well, we have to do something. Meredith's become like an exhibit." George voiced, making Cristina gran. "Like the... hey, like a zoo animal, like that rare panda that everyone stares at." He was referring to the hospital gossip about Meredith, some people said she went crazy after Derek dumped her for Addison, and other people said she was ready to jump off the building. None of it was true, though. But she was just upset, as you'd expect anyone to be after a breakup.

"Please don't say that to her face. I think that panda died alone."

Izzie advised him.

"It did," Amory informed.

After hearing Cristina laugh, George turned to her. "This just could just as easily be you, if people knew about you and..." He narrowed his eyes and silently mouthed Burke, which made Cristina a little angry.

"You take that back." Cristina immediately said, redoing her bun.

"No," George responded, making Cristina glare at him. "I'm just saying we should do something to cheer her up."

"Don't worry about it." Izzie mysteriously replied and shared a knowing look with Cristina. They had come up with the perfect plan to cheer up their heartbroken friend. George and Amory were not informed and looked between the two, confused.

"It's under control."

"What... what do you guys have going on?" George asked.

"Nothing."

"Hey! Why didn't you two tell me about whatever the hell you are planning to do? Meredith's also my person." Amory tried to convince them, but it was to no avail. Izzie and Cristina glanced at each other before shaking their heads with a smile on their faces. This was all part of their plan: they decided not to tell Skylar, because they thought she would spill it to Meredith. Even though she's good at keeping secrets, just not with Meredith.
