Didn't we almost have it all, A fleeting moment, a whispered call, In the dance of fate, we rise and fall, Memories linger, like a haunting thrall.
"I thought I was gonna hate this party thing, but it's kind of great," Cristina said, taking a sip of her tequila. She pointed to Meredith, who Amory was wrapping in a toilet paper wedding dress. "Can we set her on fire after?" Callie was writing some vows on Cristina's hand.
"No, we cannot," Meredith answered, mad.
"These wedding vows are not gonna fit in here," Callie told the bride.
"Write smaller." Cristina shrugged.
"Be still, please. Vow just became cow." The resident told her.
Izzie waved them off. "You don't need vows on your hand. When you get up there, just speak from the heart."
"Uh, Izzie, the heart is an organ." Cristina scoffed. "It pumps, it circulates blood, it gets clogged from time to time. It does not, however, speak. It doesn't have tiny little lips on it."
"Can you imagine if it had tiny little lips on it; just inconveniently telling everyone what you were feeling?" Amory smiled, scrunching up her nose a bit.
Izzie rolled her eyes. "Well, you're all glass totally empty."
"Look, I'm gonna like being married. It's the wedding part that's ridiculous." Cristina huffed.
Suddenly, everyone's pagers went off, and Amory getting up. "Well, the party's over."
"Damn, mine didn't go off. Pieve of crap." Cristina complained.
"You can do this, right?" Meredith asked.
"Become a piece of property? Sure, looking forward to it." The engaged woman joked.
"No matter what, you're walking down that aisle today." The dirty blonde told her as she and Amory got Meredith out of her paper wedding dress.
"We need you to go down that aisle." Amory nodded along.
"Is the toilet paper cutting off your circulation?"
Meredith shook her head. "You, marrying Burke, it's a sign. It's a sign that people like us can do this. Be healthy, be happy."
Cristina raised an eyebrow. "Oh, I get it. My wedding's about you two."
"Yes." They chorused.
"Okay."
" You can do this, right?"
"I can do this."
"Okay."

The interns arrived at the hospital once Meredith and Amory were sobered up. "You have an aortic dissection?" Cristina asked her fiancé, who was passing by with a patient on a gurney.
