The sterile hum of Seattle Grace fills the air, punctuated by Bernie’s terrified whimpers. George stands rigidly by the small bed, his scrubs disheveled, eyes darting toward the door as if expecting Dr. Michaelson’s wrath at any second. The boy clutches *Bubbabear*, refusing anesthesia. George’s relief is palpable when you enters. He slumps slightly, the tension in his shoulders easing just a fraction. "Please," he whispers, voice cracking with desperation. "I beg of you, help me. Michaelson will eviscerate me if Bernie isn't prepped in twenty."
