Endless List of Platonic Relationships I Love - Jackson Avery and Mark Sloan

"I guess the plastic posse is back in action." "Kicking surgical ass and taking names."

[moonpagesdani]

His Voice Felt Like Home

Pairing: Jackson Avery x Female Reader

Genre: Fluff, comfort, emotional softness

POV: You

You don’t cry often.

Not at work, not in public, and definitely not in the middle of a stairwell at Grey Sloan Memorial with your scrub top stained and your chest tight from holding everything in all day.

But today broke you a little.

Too many bad calls. Too many helpless moments. Too much pretending you were okay when all you wanted was for someone to see through it.

You lean against the wall, head tilted back, eyes shut. Just breathing. Just trying not to fall apart.

And then you hear his voice.

“Hey. I’ve been looking for you.”

Jackson.

The sound of it—smooth, low, so familiar—cuts through the noise in your head like sunlight through clouds. Your eyes open slowly, and there he is. Hair a little messy, stethoscope around his neck, concern written all over his ridiculously handsome face.

You try to speak, to shrug it off, to say something like “I’m fine.”

But the moment he steps closer and really looks at you, that wall you’ve built all day cracks just a little.

He doesn’t say anything right away. He just reaches for your hand—gently, like he knows what this moment is. Like he’s been here before.

And you let him take it.

“Talk to me,” he says softly. “Or don’t. Just… let me be here.”

You don’t say much. Just a whisper: “Rough day.”

He nods, eyes steady. “Yeah. I figured.”

And then, like he’s done it a thousand times before, he pulls you into his arms.

You melt into him almost instantly, face pressed against the soft cotton of his scrub top, hands fisting the fabric like it’s the only thing holding you upright.

And he talks—low and slow, like a quiet lullaby just for you.

“You did everything you could today. You always do. And if anyone gets to fall apart sometimes, it’s you. You don’t have to be the strong one right now, okay? You’ve got me.”

His voice wraps around you, grounding and familiar, like warm blankets and soft lights and every little thing that’s ever made you feel safe.

You close your eyes. Just breathe. Just listen.

Because it’s true—there’s something about the way Jackson speaks to you. Something in the way his voice dips when he’s trying to comfort you, or softens when he says your name. Something that pulls you back when your world feels like it’s spinning out.

You stay like that for a while. No one else around. Just you, and him, and the echo of his voice reminding you that you’re not alone.

That you never were.

And that maybe… this—arms wrapped around you, words spoken just for your heart—this is what home really feels like.

At least there was closure for this, if nothing else in Grey’s Anatomy. What would we have done without this storyline?

[alexstalkers]

Really excited about this first story that I’m writing that I might do it in parts❤️❤️ I’m almost finished with it and it’s coming along great, I’m just wondering would it be even better if I added pictures and/or gifs to help bring the story more to life?

For Years | J. Avery

Summary: y/n had fallen inlove with jackson since their 4th year of residency but Jackson never thought of her more than his Best friend so you decide to leave and move on

Trigger: slight swearing

Words: 2.7k+

A/N: i also take requests. I usually publish on wattpad but i thought why not on tumblr too.

Part 2

Standing in front of three doctors you looked up too and giving them your biggest smile as a thank you for  everything they had done for you. "You don't know how thankful i am for you guys doing this for me and keeping it a secret." Y/n tell Bailey,Owen, and Webber.

You had been Working in Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital since your intern year and back then it was just You and   five other Interns who you now consider your family. Now your were double board certified in Peds and plastics who just finished fellowship.

"Anything for you y/n. Your like a daughter to me." Webber tells you giving you a short hug before leaving with Bailey.

"I tell them today, Dr. Hunt. Can you round them up so they hear it from me and not someone else?" You tell him.

"Of Course. But i just wanna know why your leaving us? We're one of the best, if not the best, Hospital in the US and your leaving for Toronto General Hospital just like that?" Owen says

"I want something more Owen. I don't wanna be just a normal attending. I wanna be head of a department too in the future. I want something more" you tell him glancing at Jackson, who had been your best friend after George had died, giving his charts to the nurse.

" I won't be head of peds cause arizona's here and if she leaves alex will take over. And obviously jackson will be head of plastics. I don't mind working under them but i just---okay its not the only reason why im leaving and i know you know that owen. I have to let go of him sooner or i never will" you look up at owen. " I have to give up now or i never will" you tell him not before hugging him and walking away.

~

You finished up updating your charts, ready for Alex and Jackson to take over them as you only had a week left of working in GreySloan.

You took a look around the place and remembered everything you had been through. From the first time you walked the halls of seattle grace to the first time you met your friends, now turned family, to how you  met your best friend Jackson , who you have been in love with since you both were im your 4th year of residency.

Everything was falling into place now. You had amazing friends/Family, you achieved your dream of becoming double board certified in Peds and Plastics, and now you've been given a chance to work at one of the best hospitals in canada. You just needed one person, but that person didn't need you

~

Just as promised, Owen had gathered all your closest Friends/Family in the Conference room for your announcement. You entered the room last and stood next to Owen, Bailey and Webber with a big smile on your face.

"I gathered you all today here on such short notice because y/n has a special announcement to make" owen said before motioning for you to step forward abit.

"Yea, i do have something to tell you all but before that i wanna tell you how thankful i am for each and everyone of you." You tell them all smiling wide. You see jackson have a puzzled look on his face that you choose ignore.

You look at Alex and Mer before continuing " To mer and Alex, who i had been in the same intern class with, i love you both so much and i am the luckiest person in the world to have met you along with cristina, Izzie, and George."

" To Bailey who had been my resident when i was an intern, i promise to remember your 5 rules and i will for sure promise to use them" you tell her letting out a small giggle when you see her smile.

"Dr. Webber you have always been my father figure here and your will always be. Chief Hunt, for everything you have done for me and with me will never be forgotten." You give them a hug slightly tearing up. You didn't want to cry so you tried to wipe them away but it all just flowed out.

"Arizona thank you for teaching me every single thing i needed to learn to be a great peds surgeon. Mark, who i know would have loved to be here with us, i thank him for showing me how plastics was a powerful specialty. Without them i wouldn't be double board certified in two of the most amazing specialty, no offense to the other specialties though" you let out a small laugh as arizona stands up going to you before pulling you into a very very tight hug which you return.

You pull away from arizona who doesn't return to her seat but stands beside webber " April, your amazing. Everything about you is amazing so keep being amazing" you smile at her. You two were never close but you were still her friend.

"And ofcourse Jackson" you looked at him. Staring into the green eyes you had fallen for like it was compelling you to stop doing whatever you were doing and just stare at him.

You shook your head slightly before continuing your speech. " Your my best friend. My person. I would never dream of forgetting you. You had been with me through it all. From the shooting to the crash to bus exploding  and many more. You have been my rock when George, Lexie, and mark died whi--."

"Are you dying?" Jackson cuts you off standing up " cause if you are--"

"I'm not dying Jackson." You reassure him. " Then what's going on y/n? What the hell's going on with the thank you speeches if your not dying?"

"Im leaving" you tell everyone

"What?" Jackson says shocked " your leaving us? your leaving me?"

" I got an offer at Toronto General Hospital which Bailey, Webber and Hunt helped me get" you tell everyone "they want me to start in 3 weeks. I'll be chief in training for a couple of years before they actually give the position but it’s a start"

" So just like that your leaving? When were you going to tell me this? The day before you leave? " Jackson raised his voice.

"Now. I’m telling everyone now. I didn’t want to say anything before i was sure  i was leaving. " You spat. Everyone was now looking at the two you, shocked at how you were both arguing in front of everyone. you two had fought before but never in front of everyone else.

"I know its just short notice but I've thought everything through. I've taken care of everything and it’s all set. " You tell everyone

" Is this about the money? Cause if it is i'll talk to the board about giving you a raise or a new contract" Jackson said " no. It's never about the money for me.  I save lives cause i want to not because i want money. I want something more for my career. Something more in my life"

" And something more is what? In canada? Miles and miles away from us? Your family? Miles away from me!?" Jackson yelled

" Jackson please. Let’s talk about this privately and alone" you try to tell him motioning to the others

"No. You made your choice. You chose to leave me behind, that's what you chose" he says before leaving the room. You see april follow him out to chase after him so you stood still. That was the reason why you had to leave because April and Jackson were meant to be and you and him would never in a million years happen

You stood in front of everyone, trying to come up with something to say but you were speechless. It was true. You were leaving him and everyone else. That's what you decided and there's no going back now

~

Today was your last day working at GSMH. You spent your day saying goodbye to nurses and other doctors you worked with.

Jackson was still avoiding you and of course you were upset about it but you understood. In your head he had the right to be angry and upset because he had a point. But you had to leave to move on and you couldn’t do that when every single inch of the hospital you saw him.

"Y/n!" You turn your head around to see Jo and Alex walking towards you holding a very big paper bag. You smile at them as they approach you.

"Whats up guys?"

"We got you something" jo says before handing you a paper bag " its a blanket. Like a really really fluffy blanket cause alex said you get cold easily so i thought why not get you a blanket so you don't forget us. " Jo says  as she pulls you into a  very tight hug.

" I could never. I promise to come to your wedding and to come to all the important events." You tell them pulling away from the hug. Jo gets paged so she leaves you and Alex alone.

"He’s still avoiding you?" Alex says.

"Yes he is. I understand though. It hurts but its fine. I would do the same if he was leaving." You tell alex with a frown " my flights tonight. All my stuffs been sent yesterday and i have my suitcase in the lounge so that i can leave after my shift."

"Are you sure about this?" He asked.

You nod at him. " Im changing my cell and everything. But I trust you not to tell anyone this." You gave him two envelopes. One had Jackson's name and the other one had nothing on it.

" Give this one to jackson after i leave. Make sure he gets it okay. And this one has my address and my new cell. Your my emergency contact incase anything happens." You look at him smiling

" I have no one but you right now. Everyone hates me for leaving but you get why i have to. I trust you and only you with my information. Don’t share it with anyone else. " You plead to him " please make sure jackson gets the letter. Make sure he reads it, hell if you have to stay and watch him read it or you read it to him it’s fine. Just please"

Alex pulls you into a very tight hug, something you got a lot of after the news spread that you were leaving. " Take care of yourself y/n. Call and text me everyday. If your not feeling well call me and i'll be on the next flight out to see you. " You let the tears fall out of your eyes. " Your like my sister y/n. Even when the world hates you, i'll be there to protect you. "

You pull away from the hug, tears still   streaming down your face that alex wipes away. " I'll make sure he gets this okay. I promise" alex says before hugging you one last time.

~

You walked into the attending lounge to see it was empty. You took one last look around before changing out of your scrubs and into your more comfy clothes. You folded your scrubs, deciding to take them with you to toronto.

You took your pink stethoscope, which you had used since your interns years, which had your initials on them, and your gold bracelet that's adjustable  and placed them in jacksons locker right on top of his bag.

"Something to remember me by" you whispered before grabbing your suitcase and leaving

~

Alex had trouble finding Jackson. He wanted to try and have him read the letter as soon as possible so he could try and stop y/n from leaving but the man was hard to find.

"Jackson! Hey Jackson!" Alex yells before running up to him

"What is it karev?" Jackson asked. Alex pulls him into an on call room " what the hell karev? Do you know how bad this looks? Not to mention how wrong it looks too?"

" Oh just shut up Avery. You've been avoiding Y/n all week and all day on her last day. She asked me to give you this" alex hands him the letter only for jackson to stare at it. " I don't need a letter. I need her to stay" he says before trying to exit the room.

Alex grabbed his coat and pushed him up against the wall. " Look avery, i may get fired for doing this but i don't care. You're going to read this letter and your gonna read it now cause i promised her you would and Alex karev doesn't break promises"

Jackson grabs the envelope and roughly opens it. Inside were two pieces of paper stapled together. Jackson took it out and began to read it

Dear Jackson,

I know your mad and you have every right to be. I get it, i promise you i won't hold it against you that we never got to hug or have a talk before i left. There's so many things i wanna tell you but there's only so much i can write on this paper.

You have always been my favorite person. No one could compare to you. No one can and no one will. Your an amazing and compassionate doctor. One of a kind.

I want to thank you for being my rock when george, lexie, and Mark died. I wouldn't have done it without you. Your my person and will always be my person since we became close. All the mercy west vs seattle grace bullshit never mattered to me back then. I just needed a friend and you were there.

I love you.

I fell for you.

I left because i fell for you. I left because i loved you. For years i have loved you and i still do till this very second. I need to move on from you. Your clearly happy and content with your life but i'm not.

Every time i wanted to tell you, you were dating someone. From Lexie to April to steph to confessing your love to april on her wedding day.  I couldn't confess when you were happy and content. I tried dating but each and everyone of those guys i seem to compare them to you. They were sweet and handsome and amazing but they weren't you. 

They weren't Jackson Avery.

I love you with all my heart Jackson. I'll always be there for you as your best friend because that's all i'll ever be to you. I have to let you go cause its hurting and breaking me to hold onto something that's never gonna happen.

You were always my soulmate Jackson, even if i was never yours.

Goodbye Jackson. Take care of yourself.

Dr. Y/n  y/ l /n.

Jackson looked up at alex. Shocked at what he had just read. “Y/n loves me” he  thought to himself. " Where is she?" He asked alex

"I don't know but maybe she's in the attendings lounge. We can catch her there if not we can try the airport" alex says before opening the door and running with jackson towards the attendings lounge.

When they arrive, jackson goes straight to y/n locker only to find it empty. " Damnit alex. Try to page her"

Jackson tries to call her but all he got was your voicemail. " Jackson she left.  Nurse Ali said she left  her pager at the desk over an hour ago give or take"

"Lets go to the airport alex. We have to try and catch up to her"

~

Alex and jackson drove over the speed limit trying not to get caught by the pulis. Traffic was a bitch and the rain did not make it easier but they made it. Jackson pulled out his american express credit card buying 2 tickets to wherever for him and alex so they could go into the gate.

They ran to the nearest Screen that had the information of all the flights.

Seattle, WA To Toronto, CA - DELAYED

they ran to the gate and hoped that you were still there. They arrived at the gate only to find the plane reversing and getting ready to fly.

" Is that the plane to Toronto?" Jackson asked the Flight attendant who was at the gate wishing that it wasn't. " Yes it is. Are you a passenger? We can arrange for you to get on the next flight"

He was too late. Jackson was too late and he blamed himself for it. If only he hadn't avoided you, may you and him would be holding hands at the hospital being the plastics duo you guys were.

He lost you because he was too late.

Review of 17x14 “Look Up Child”

It has been three years since I wrote my last review of a Grey’s Anatomy episode.  After Sarah left, I stepped away from my fan accounts and did not plan on ever looking back.  Somehow though, through the dedication of our captains and the strength of the Japril fandom, we got one more episode that confirmed what we have known all along – Japril is forever.  

The episode opens to Jackson driving through a storm and we can see in his eyes that he is fighting an internal storm as well.  He winces at his injured hand while his mind flashes through thoughts of holding Harriet with April for the first time, the pain of watching April marry Matthew, and meeting his dad.  These moments, along with many others have led Jackson yearning for more out of life, and so he returns to Montana hopeful he will find answers there.

The last thing Robert Avery expects, for a second time, is to find the son he left behind standing in the doorway of his restaurant.  

“Everybody alive?” Robert asks.

Jackson making this journey again, after the way they left things before, could only be for one reason in Robert’s mind.  Jackson reassures him that is not the reason he came, and Robert relaxes easily into his friendly charm, offering coffee and a place for Jackson to “take a load off.”  He has no idea of the “load” Jackson truly bears.

Robert is awaiting the arrival of his co-worker so they can deliver pre-packaged meals to families in need in their community.  This gesture may seem small, but to Jackson, this is a subtle sign that he on the right path.  There is more he can do than what he has found within the walls of Grey-Sloan Memorial. Their small talk is awkward, and Jackson wants to get right to what he came for – answers.  Robert has other ideas.  There are sandwiches to be made and they can talk while they work.

After following Robert to the porch, Jackson realizes this sandwich-making process is going to be more time-consuming than he thought.  And so is getting the answers he came for.  He reiterates to Robert that he doesn’t want anything from him – not turkey, not coffee – just answers.

Jackson presses his dad for information about why he left the foundation, the problems he saw with it, and Catherine’s perspective on it all while Robert deflects the questions with vague answers and praise of the ham and turkey sandwich.  Robert is not ready to answer these questions because answering them would mean dealing with the memories of the past and the regret he carries.  So instead, he smiles kindly and puts Jackson in charge of the meat slicer, which leads to the first moment in Jackson’s life where his dad taught him how to do something. (Although we all know he didn’t teach him well!) This interaction allows Jackson to let his guard down just slightly and they find they have some common views on the Avery name, money, and pressure that comes with it all.  Jackson tries some of Robert’s “best in the state” turkey and Robert opens up about his own shame and abandonment by his father. It seems pain runs through generations of Avery men.

Maybe it is that realization, or the cup of Robert’s coffee in his hand, that makes Jackson relax enough to begin opening up.  He shares his desire to do more to change the system has seen fail so many people.  He isn’t even sure if he can, but he knows he feels compelled to try.  Robert agrees that people should do what makes them happy.  He did and he “never looks back.”

But Jackson does.  He can’t stop looking back and wondering why his dad was absent from every moment that mattered.  

“I realize that it’s really messed me up…pretty badly. And, um, it just made it hard to maintain relationships and stuff.  Having this inclination to run away all the time.  And I know, I know, running away doesn’t actually solve anything.  I know that. So…and I’ve tried.  I’ve tried really hard to rid myself of the shame and the pain that comes with all that, and uh, you know just kind of doubled-down on being the best at everything – the best father I could possibly be.  I probably stayed in my marriage longer than I should have, went along with foundation business longer than I should have, but no matter what, when it gets rough I just end up right there, running into the woods trying to fight the you in me.”

What begins as a tearful explanation builds to all of Jackson’s pent-up emotions overflowing at his dad.  He is distracted and emotional, cutting his hand on the slicer with blood pouring out, while his heart pours out at the same time.  

Robert tends to Jackson’s injury, and they both feel it is a simple gesture that holds more weight than they know what to do with.  Robert tries to make light of the situation by joking about a family practice, but it is the idea of them as family that sends Jackson to find fresh air on the porch. It is here where Robert finally answers Jackson’s question of “Why?”

Running is what Robert does when things get too difficult, and that is what makes Jackson so afraid. He feels the same pull.  Just before he cut his hand, he was running down the long list of things he feels he has done wrong. Does he truly believe he stayed in his marriage too long?  No. But to Jackson that is just one more way he is like his dad.  He is so messed up by the fear of turning into Robert that he breaks things off before they get too difficult, before he gets to the point Robert did.  If he can maintain a safe distance to the important things in his life, he won’t lose them and he won’t be like Robert.  “My divorce…maybe that would have been a good time for you to step in and share some wisdom.”  This isn’t who Jackson wants to be, but he is too scared of moving in either direction – scared of moving both toward or away from the things that matter, like April.  So instead, he suffers in an ambiguous middle ground.  One where he hasn’t completely abandoned anyone or anything and one where he hasn’t fully committed to anything either.  It is a balance he has tried to find for years, but it is also what is breaking him now.  

Truth be told, even Robert cannot fully run from what matters.  From his cabin in the woods, he admits that everyday he regrets leaving, and he buys gifts for a little girl he has never met in hopes that one day he will.

“You’re not a runner. If you were, you’d have been long gone by now…you have it in your soul to do the right thing.  To makes things right.  And you didn’t just fix a disaster, you made it better…on your worst day, you are ten times the man I am.”

And it is with those words Jackson makes his decision.  He is going to do the right thing.  He is going to take what seems like a disaster and make it better.

Arriving back in Seattle, Jackson goes straight to the people who matter most.  

Catherine is his first stop. He needs her blessing to take over the foundation.  Their money and influence can make life better for all people by bringing justice and equity to medicine and build a better future for Harriet.  Catherine’s Mama-heart breaks a little to see him go, but she cannot deny how proud of him she is.

With the rain still coming down, Jackson rings April’s doorbell and stresses over how he is going to approach asking her to move across the country for him.  How can he explain to her that this is not impulsive, this is not something he is doing on a whim?  

Yet, when the door opens, all his insecurities are quickly forgotten because seeing April only reminds him of why they have always been each other’s person and how she has always trusted him no matter what.  She trusted him the night of the boards with her heart and virginity, she trusted him with the decision to induce her pregnancy with Samuel to stop his pain, and she trusted him to run away from her wedding and the life she thought she was supposed to have.  But this is different.  So much has changed in the past few years.  Would she trust him now?

Jackson will have to wait to find out, though, because April is frantic.  Harriet is sick and April cannot get her fever down.  Jackson sees how stressed she is and immediately gives April what she needs.  He takes Harriet into her arms, both consoling her and helping April calm down and have a moment to breathe.  They fall into their usual banter and affectionate teasing.

Their conversations and interactions throughout the episode give us small glimpses of what we should have had the past several years had their story been written they way it should have been.  They naturally fall into their place as the loving, concerned parents unable to sleep while caring for their daughter.  They move through the house and around each other as if this is a familiar dance that they have done hundred times before.

Harriet’s sickness doesn’t seem to be the only thing April is stressed about.  Her living room is strewn with laundry and she quickly tries to clean it up while Jackson reassures her in his “bank voice” that it is fine. Too many pillows, but otherwise, fine. Jackson continues Daddy Duty by dancing with his daughter and April gets a chance to take a much-needed shower…until the storm knocks the power out.

Jackson and April alone at night in a storm, surrounded by candles, is the perfect set-up for an epic reunion, and while they may not have utilized the kitchen counter like we wanted them, too, they did reconnect on a level of clarity and maturity that shows how much they have grown.

There is also that not-so-little issue of Matthew.  Japril fans spotted early on that April was missing a particularly important ring, but it was even more telling when Jackson asked her directly if her and Matthew are happy, and she responded with simply, “We are busy.”  For a marriage that the terrible writing of season 14 wanted us to believe was ordained by God, how sad that you can’t even pretend to be happy. That one line conveyed so much more than what was stated.  It was clear from that point that Matthew and April’s marriage was over.

April is not the only one beating around the bush.  She quickly calls Jackson out on his “cagey” behavior of commenting on her exposed brick instead of saying why he actually showed up at her house late at night in the middle of a storm.  She can read him so well she knows there is something more, which is when we finally find out his plan – he is going to take over the Avery Foundation. The catch is, that means Jackson, as well as April and her family, have to move to Boston.

April responds by questioning if this is what Jackson actually wants because it never was before.  Is he going to move to Boston and then fail or regret his decision?  And while this seems unsupportive and harsh, April has to ask these questions because, as we find out later, that is exactly what happened to her.  She thought she was choosing the right path by marrying Matthew, but not only has their marriage failed, she regrets that they even tried. But Jackson doesn’t know this yet, so to defend his decision he uses Matthew proposing to April as an example of how he unconditionally supported her which not only hints at Jackson’s jealousy, but reinforces April’s fear that making a decision this big may not be the best choice.  She sees happiness for Jackson in the safe choice.  He can continue to rebuild faces, give little boy’s hands, and help people breathe again.  Maybe if she can convince him to stay with what he knows he won’t feel the hurt she is feeling right now. “Why would you want to give all that up?”

Jackson knows he can do all of that and more in Boston.  He can make a positive change in medicine, April can continue her work with the homeless, and Matthew will just follow because it is April, and that is the one reason Jackson likes him.  “He is gonna want to follow you anywhere.”  Jackson understands the urge to follow April anywhere.  The night continues with wine, snacks, and comfortable conversation but they don’t come to an agreement on what their future holds.

The storm breaks and morning comes.  Jackson, recognizing that April has been overwhelmed lets her sleep in, and she wakes up to the sounds of Harriet and Jackson happily eating breakfast and we get a glimpse of their happy, family mornings that we all know Boston will bring.  The three of them laugh and talk over pancakes, orange juice, and throw pillows and April admits that she should have been more supportive of Jackson’s plans.  If only they could get their timing right.  

The morning has brought with it clarity for April and she tells Jackson her answer is yes.  Yes, she believes he is “that guy.” Yes, she believes this could work.  Yes, they are going to Boston.  Shocked and surprised, Jackson offers to help talk to Matthew, but we find out that won’t be necessary.  As most of us suspected, the marriage that should have never happened is over.  One of the best lines of the episode is the slight dig that the writers (Sarah/Jesse?) took at the ridiculous story of April marrying Matthew.  “We kept trying to tell ourselves that our whole winding road was God’s plan to bring us back together.  But he was still so angry and hurt.  I mean, I left him at the altar and his wife died.  You know, you don’t just stop feeling hurt ‘cause it’s a better story if God brought us together in our pain.”  Enough said. And as much as we are not sad to see Matthew go, April is hurting, and Jackson recognizes that.  He takes her hand in a small gesture of comfort because he never wants to see her in pain.  (Thank you, Jesse, for improvising that.)  He gave her a reason to smile again.  Their family has a fresh start ahead in Boston.  

The episode closes with Harriet calling out for “Mommy and Daddy” as Jackson pulls April into a hug before leaving to prepare for their move, and April folds perfectly into his arms where she is supposed to be.  Fingers crossed for new horizons.  Maybe they finally did get their timing right.

10 Epic Scrub Room Moments pt. 1. Here I am 🙃 After the Elevator scenes, it's time to celebrate some epic #ScrubRoomMoments. 🧼 MerDer shared some of the most iconic scenes there, and Meredith even "danced" with Derek's ghost or recall her miracle dream in a scrub room. The dialogue between April and Meredith during the shooting episode is one of the most perfect things of whole Grey's. Ellis Grey's ashes belong to the OR 2 thanks to Mer and Richard. Besides, scrub rooms is where death is quite often announced. "Sing, Cindy Lou, sing," is my favourite moment between Mer and Jackson, I think. I didn't expect it. And the (almost) goodbyes of Mertina and Merlex rip me apart. There's definitely going to be a part 2, cause I have many more in mind. 😄 ✏️ Comment your favourites or let me know which Scrub Room scene would you like to see next! #greysanatomy #greys #MerDer #Mertina #Merlex #Merthan #Omelia #MerJackson #meredithgrey #cristinayang #alexkarev #derekshepherd #owenhunt #ellisgrey #richardwebber #aprilkepner #jacksonavery #GSMHplaces #scrubroom #merderscrubroom #merderedit #greysisgrace #explorepage #greysabc #greysanatomyedits #greysedit #seattlegracehospital #greysloanmemorialhospital https://www.instagram.com/p/CUsCevxNw9J/?utm_medium=tumblr

My japril heart beats once more❤️
