"I do wet the bed still and suck my thumb when I am anxious, sad, nervous or scared."

"Clarissa, you also had a hysterectomy last year because of the trauma that you had physically experienced. But if it'll make you feel better we can get some diapers." Mommy tells me.

"Can you tell George, Cristina and Addie? Oh and Dr. Bailey, Virginia and Dr. Webber? I want to tell Alex and Amelia myself."

"Of course I'll tell them. They won't judge you, especially Alex. He's extremely protective of you and won't let anyone hurt you." Mommy tells me with a smile.

"I'm going to prescribe you some Zoloft for your ptsd. It's at the lowest dose for now." Sarah says before handing Mommy the script and we leave the extra office. Mommy kisses my cheeks before walking away and I walked in the other direction, bumping into Alex.

"Everything okay, sunshine?" Alex as the two of us started walking down the hallway.

"I involuntarily age regress due to the trauma I experienced. You are one of my best friends and I wanted to tell you myself."

"I'm proud of you for telling me. I'll never judge you or abandon you. You're stuck with me sunshine." Alex says with a smile on his face.

"Than you Alex. I love you so much."

"I love you too Clarissa." Alex says when we arrived at the nurses' station where George, Cristina and Izzie were standing.

"Alex, do you want to come over to my house later? Only if you are not working of course."

"I'd love to sunshine." Alex tells me with a smile on his face.

"I wish I could hold a heart." George says, referring to the surgery Mommy and Dr. Burke performed earlier today.

"A monkey could hold a heart." Cristina tells George, trying to make him feel better.

"George, I need more ice and chips." Izzie tells George.

"Who else did you invite?"

"Izzie, we said the list was jocks only. Surgery, Trauma, Plastics. Who else?" Cristina asks Izzie.

"Just some people from Peds." Izzie tells Cristina.

"You invited the preschoolers to Meredith's house. The next thing you'll say is you invited the shrinks." Cristina says before noticing Izzie looking away.

"She invited mental defects. This party's DOA." Cristina mutters.

"You know, Meredith thinks this is just going to be a little, small, meet-your-boyfriend cocktail thing. Did you clear this with her?" George asks Izzie before turning to face me.

"Did you know about this?" George asks me.

"No, but then again I did not know that Izzie was able to get a boyfriend." Alex, Cristina and George try not to laugh while Izzie glares at me.

"Well at least I have a boyfriend. Nobody wants to be with your retarded ass." Izzie says and I could see Alex clenching his hands into fists in an attempt to calm himself down.

"Actually I have a date next week with a neuro fellow."

"Yeah right!" Izzie says when Amelia walks over to me and kisses my cheeks.

"Hi there angel." Amelia greets me with a smile on her face.

"Hi Amelia. What are you doing here? I thought you were in LA until Sunday."

"I wanted to surprise you with lunch. Well that and I have the next two weeks off." Amelia says before I turned back to the others.

"Guys, this is Dr. Amelia Shepherd my date. Amelia, these are my best friends doctors Cristina Yang, George O'Malley and Alex Karev. And the blonde lady glaring at me is Dr. Isobel Stevens, but we call her Izzie."

"It's lovely to meet most of you. Do you guys mind if I steal Clarissa from you for a little bit?" Amelia asks the others.

"Of course you can." George says with a smile before Amelia and I leave the hospital.

Amelia's POV

"Clarissa, I'm addicted to alcohol and drugs. I've been addicted to those substances ever since I was a teenager. When I was five years old, I witnessed my father being murdered in front of me and after that my mother didn't want anything to do with me. I'm sober now and have been for two years with help from Addison and Mark. I still go to meetings and see a psychiatrist to help me with sorting out my feelings." The two of us are sitting on a bench in the park eating our salads.

"I involuntarily age regress due to the trauma I experienced. I still wet the bed and suck my thumb when I am scared, anxious, sad or nervous. I have never had romantic feelings towards anyone, except for you." Clarissa explains to me.

"I know I'm a mess...who talks too much and feels too much, especially my feelings for you. You don't see me as Derek's little sister or as an annoying addict. You see me as just Amelia. Nobody's really ever seen me as just Amelia or was even interested in just Amelia. You're my angel that shined into my life and I don't want to lose you."

"I see you Amelia and will make sure that you are always seen." Clarissa tells me before hugging me.

"I don't care that you age regress. It's just a part of who you are."

"I do not care if you are an addict because that is just a small part of who you are." Clarissa says before I hugged her.

"This isn't our first date, but I wanted to take you out for lunch today so I could tell you everything beforehand."

"I do not care where we go as long as we are together." Clarissa tells me.

"I know but I want you to have a magical first date."

"Derek ruined my first kiss. I do not even know how to kiss." Clarissa explains to me and I couldn't help the rage I was feeling at Derek sexually assaulting Clarissa.

"I'll make sure your real first kiss is a magical kiss." Clarissa smiles before kissing my cheek.
