AALIYAH hated thunderstorms. She didn't know what it was but ever since she was young she always feared them. That's how she found herself in Meredith's bed, Jasper wasn't able to come over since he was in L.A. on assignment, so she settled for the next best option.

    "We're gonna be late if we don't get up soon," Aaliyah said from beside Meredith propping her head up with her arm.

Instead of responding, Meredith readjusted herself on the bed, positioning herself to lay horizontally causing Aaliyah to sit up moving to the edge of the bed. After staring at Meredith for a moment Aaliyah kissed the top of her forehead giving the Grey woman a small smile before leaving the room in order to get ready. As soon as she exited she was met with George and two cups of coffee, raising her eyebrows in surprise the Valentine woman took the cup despite it not initially being for her.

After about 20 minutes Aaliyah made her way out of the house, texting Meredith that she left breakfast in the microwave. Managing to arrive on time Aaliyah quickly changed into her scrubs and made her way to Bailey for rounds. As the interns plus Bailey started rounds Aaliyah noticed both Meredith and Cristina were missing.

    "Cristina, you're late," Bailey said as both she and Meredith ran to join the group, not even acknowledging Meredith.

    "So is Meredith," Cristina pointed out not liking how Bailey was singling her out, but instead of chastising Meredith as well Bailey just ignored the blonde. Apparently, she caught Meredith and Derek 'in the middle of something' according to Cristina. Aaliyah knew someone would find out whatever they had going on sooner or later, she just never expected it to be so soon.

    "When we walk in this door, you will maintain decorum," Bailey announced barely sparing a glance at her interns, "you will not laugh, vomit, or drop your jaw. Are we understood?"

    "Why would we laugh?" Izzie asked clearly confused.

   "Oh, just you wait," Alex told her rubbing his hands together in excitement.

    "Well that's not concerning," Aaliyah muttered rolling her eyes at the man.

    "Good morning, Miss.Connors," Bailey greeted as the six entered the room.

As soon as the group entered they suddenly realized why Bailey gave them the warning she did. The patient had a tumor the size of, hell Aaliyah didn't even know. All she knew was the tumor was huge and was definitely causing the woman pain.

    "What is it?" George whispered, not taking his eyes off the mass.

    "A baby. What do you think George," Aaliyah harshly whispered back, narrowing her eyes at the man.

"Good morning, Annie. How are you?" Alex asked unusually upbeat, "This is Dr.Bailey, and these are my fellow interns, the one with the award-winning smile right there is Dr.Valentine, the one I was telling you about,"

    "Dr.Karev, we refer to the patients as 'mister'一" Bailey began before she was interrupted.

    "I told him to call me 'Annie'. Miss. Connors makes me feel old and fat, which I am, but why feel that way?"

    "Good Morning," Burke said as he entered the room, taking a quick moment to glance at Cristina causing Aaliyah to tilt her head, those two were definitely screwing.

    "Oh, Annie, this is Dr.Burke— awesome surgeon," Alex fake whispered trying his best to seem like he wasn't a complete asshole.

    "Dr.Karev,"

    "Oh, Annie Connors is a 43-year-old woman who presented last night with aggressive shortness of breath for the past three months. Found to have a very large tumor of unknown origin, pressed against her diaphragm. Stable vital signs, scheduled for C.T. this morning, sir," Alex presented.
