Stole My Heart ❤️ {A Jackson Avery love story}

Chapter 56:

Ah, Halloween. The best time of year for Seattle Grace. Drunk idiots getting injured means a ton of patients in the pit. I walk into the locker room and I smile at all my friends except for Izzie. Call me petty but what she was absolutely unforgivable. I see Meredith holding a ziploc bag and I tilt my head in confusion.

Delilah: what is that?
Cristina: Meredith put her mom in a baggie and brought her to work.
Meredith: I had to get her out of my closet, she was haunting me.
Alex: and now she's haunting us all.
Meredith: I'm putting her to rest.

I see Sydney Heron walk into the room with her usual perky smile.

Sydney; Meredith is cleansing. In tribal culture, when one wants to cleanse the past, one cuts off all of one's hair and buries it in the earth. You might try that too.

I smile when I see Callie and Bailey walk into the room.

Callie: okay, listen up. Today is a holiday, which means the pit will be overrun. You've got the usual drunken stupidity...
Bailey: and then you've got Seattle's annual chain saw pumpkin carving contest. I love this city.
Callie: stay on your toes and stay on top of your interns, okay?
Izzie: so we should round before heading to the pit or—
Callie: yeah, you should direct your questions to Dr. Bailey Stevens.
Cristina: oh, we're directing our questions to Dr. Bailey?
Delilah: do you have a surgery Cal?
Callie: oh, not you Delilah. Just Stevens.
Bailey: why is Stevens directing her questions to Dr. Bailey?

Callie looks over at me and gives me a knowing look and I knew what she was about to do and I wasn't going to stop her.

Callie: because she's been sleeping with my husband.

The room went silent as Callie and Bailey walk out. I walk out of the room and I walk around the hospital. Later, I find Mark talking to Olivia and another nurse Jolene.

Jolene: we've compared notes.
Mark: compared notes? Really?
Jolene: mhmm.
Olivia: compared notes, compared pick up lines, compared techniques.
Mark: techniques?
Jolene&Olivia: identical.
Mark: identical?
Olivia: we formed a club. Nurses unite against Mark Sloan.

I couldn't help but giggle at Mark's expression.

Mark: are there any, uh, club activities?

I whack Mark in the arm as the nurses walk away.

Delilah: you're a psychopath.
Mark: that was weird.

I see my dad walking up to us.

Mark: oh man, you would not believe what just happened to me.
Dad: there's a, uh, kid looking for you.
Mark: what?

I see a little kid appear from behind my dad and he looks up at Mark.

Ryan: daddy?

My eyes grow wide and my jaw drops to the ground.

Mark: what?
Delilah: holy crap. It's about time I meet one of your devil spawns.

There was a moment of silence then I see the kid smile at my dad deviously then my dad chuckles as he gives the kid some cash. I couldn't help but bust out laughing.

Dad: nicely done.
Ryan: thanks.
Delilah: I like you kid.

I give the kid a high five.

Mark: I'll be getting you back for that.
Dad: looking forward to it.

I walk over to my dad and I throw my arm around him.
