❝You sounded like you could use some cheering up. So, enter the bag of fun.❞
ELLIE BIT THE inside of her cheeks before nodding and kneeling beside her brother. She let her hand glide across his face.
"Okay," she whispered. "Okay. Knife." She took the knife from Derek and Cristina sprayed it to sanitize it. As she began to cut, Mark groaned and tears filled her eyes at the sound though she quickly blinked them away. "Okay. Needle."
FLASH.
As minutes bled into hours, the number of surgeons gathering outside of Mark's room grew. Ellie looked up when she heard a beep from the monitor and she felt his heart very slowly stop. Suddenly, the machine began to flatline and she shook her head in denial.
"No," she whispered, looking back down at her brother. "No, don't go. Not yet. Come back." The continuous tone hit her like a ton of bricks as sobs filled her chest. "Mark..."
Ellie awoke with a start, beads of sweat covering her face. She ran a hand through her tangled blonde hair, trying to catch her breath, when she looked over to the left side of the bed. It was empty. Her eyes traveled to the note that sat on the pillow and saw it was from Jackson.
I had an emergency surgery. I'll be staying at the hospital for the night.
Sleep well, sweetheart.
Letting out a breath, she dropped the paper and glanced at her alarm clock; 3:18. She slipped out of the bed and wrapped a blanket around her thin frame as she walked out to the living room. She passed the photograph of her and Mark that she kept on the side table next to the couch and sighed.
"I miss you..."
She slumped down on the couch and pulled out her phone. She fiddled with the device in her hands and looked down at the contact she had clicked on. She brought the phone up to her ear and listened to the ringing that filled her eardrums.
She shook her head. "This is stupid."
She quickly hung up the phone before the person on the other end could answer. She threw the device down on the couch in defeat and held her head in her hands, her thoughts the only thing filling the silence of the still apartment. Just as she was about to try and fall back asleep, her phone rang.
ALEX :)
She picked up the phone once more and brought it to her ear. "Hello?"
"Ellie?" Alex's groggy voice came from the other end and she pressed her lips together. "Is something wrong? You don't call this early unless we have a patient together, which I... don't think we have. Do we?"
