Meara walked out into the corridor pulling the ring off her finger. She threw it down on the floor behind her. Tears stung the corners of her eyes. Meara hurriedly wiped her face. She couldn't understand why Ramirez got to her. He was a self-centred son of a bitc-
A hand on her arm interrupted her stream of angry thoughts. Meara swung round to see who it was. Of course it was Grey. Who else would it be?
"Callie? Are you okay?" Meara hid her face from him. She didn't want him to see her upset.

"I can't," she stuttered, "when I woke up this morning, we were nothing more than good friends. And then I hit my head and now..." She trailed off. How do you explain to someone that you have no memory of a relationship that they clearly do?
Grey held her. It hurt that she woke up not knowing about them.
"Come on," he said, leading her gently towards sickbay. "Maybe Dr Suil will have an explanation." He heard Callie groan. He knew she hated sickbay.
