The foundation of the storyline is Natasha.
Hes under strict orders: Watch her and page Dr. Grey if there are any changes.
It seems Schmitt is the only one working this yuletide season.

Owen will be with Leo.
Amelia is visiting Betty in rehab.
Miranda flirts with Ben when he stops by to drop off holiday presents for Tucker.
And Meredith is headed home to get ready for jolly old St. Nick.
PS: She already told Link that he was Merediths date.
Annoyed, Meredith invites DeLuca to participate in the festivities.
We call this a love triangle.
Yet Meredith refuses to admit she is in one, even though everyone else recognizes it.
Including the coma lady Natasha.
Its a Christmas miracle!
Natasha wakes up and immediately interrogates Meredith about her love life.
How does the coma lady know about the triangle you ask?
Well her husband has been talking to her.
Okay, she didnt say that last part.
Hes concerned that Meredith is stringing Link along and giving him false hope.
Hes also sick and tired of wasting time not being with Meredith.
So Meredith agrees and all is right with DeGrey.
Lets workshop that amalgamation.
Betty says that she misses drugs more than she misses Leo.
Then she rushes out of the room, leaving Amelia a shocked mess of a person.
Do you know who else is shocked?
DeLuca is not having it.
The next morning, he tells Dr. Grey that he is not a doormat.
If shes looking for someone to walk over, maybe Link is her guy.
(Continued on next page.)
With the time lapse, we learn a lot of new information in January.
Catherine yells at her therapist for being a pain in every part of my ass.
Ben leaves her standing in the rain.
Also, hes gay.
And they are gay together.
The most disturbing piece of news comes from Betty.
Or should I say Brittany.
It seems Leos mother has been lying since the day she met Amelia and Owen.
That truth causes Owen and Amelia to push pause.
Neither can imagine life without Leo.
Garrett has a nervous breakdown in the hall, shouting that he cant live without Natasha.
If she dies, he dies!
Meredith gets in his face and talks him through the panic attack.
She begs him to fight for his wife.
And the best way to do that is to take care of himself.
In the meantime, all of the doctors will be there to fight right along with him.
DeLuca explodes when Meredith walks away from Garrett.
How can she tell him to fight for love when she runs away from it?
He then snickers at Meredith and scoffs that he used to be intimidated by her.
Now he realizes shes a big kid playing hide and seek.
Link randomly walks up and Meredith turns from DeLuca to ask him out on a date.
Suck it, DeLuca.
Manicures and pedicures for the win.
Oh, and Ben builds Miranda a tree house and they are back together.
Shes dying and she knows it.
Meredith shuts the machine down and then leaves the room so Natasha and Garrett can be alone.
Later, everyone files back into the room with their cell phones held high.
Natasha and Garrett will get the wedding of their dreams under the stars.
Jo lays Natashas dress on top of her covers.
Meredith reads Natashas vows.
A minister marries them and Natasha dies in Garrets arms.
Happy Valentines Day everyone!
DeLuca takes Merediths hand and leads her up to the roof.
Shes all dolled up for her date with Link, but that doesnt matter.
He pops some champagne, toasts Garrett and Natasha, and gives Meredith a kiss that was acceptable.
After that almost kiss in the elevator, I was expecting something a little more steamy.
But Ill allow it.
Only because Im majorly shipping DeGrey.
Rock on, MerLuca.
