Disclaimer: If I owned Grey's Anatomy, this is how "Six Days" would have gone. But I don't, so we got snoring instead.
Author's Notes: Here's my take on what should have happened in "Six Days". Updates will be a little slow, as real life intrudes this week… be patient! Good things come to those who wait!
Introduction
"Good morning, everyone!"
Izzie bounded into the kitchen, full of energy. George grinned at her and poured her a glass of juice.
"It's too early for Chipper Izzie. What's with you guys? Since when do you like mornings?" Meredith ran her hand over her face and grabbed the coffee cup out of Derek's hand.
Izzie and George shot questioning glances at each other. "Should we tell them?" George wondered.
"Well, it's just that you two being happy and, well…settled… has been the best thing ever." Izzie beamed. "I've never slept so well in my life!"
Derek looked up, confused. "How does us being together help you sleep? I thought we kept you up at night?" He waggled his eyebrows at Meredith, who groaned and dropped her head to the table and closed her eyes.
George snorted. "I hate to break it to you, McDreamy, but in case you hadn't noticed, your batting average is slumping a bit. I guess domestic bliss doesn't lend itself to screaming orgasms."
Meredith's head shot up and she threw a panicked look at Derek. "Have we gotten…. boring? Are we just Breathe-Right strips and dental floss now? This wasn't supposed to happen… we have chemistry!"
Izzie rolled her eyes. "Meredith, come on – we've all seen Moonlighting. Once the unrequited sexual tension is resolved, that's it. Cue the credits."
"No!! I will not let my sex life turn into a bad 80s TV show. I will not become Cybill …Shepherd… or whatever. I don't need to be filmed in a blur to look younger, either."
"Hmmm, Meredith Shepherd. I like the sound of that," Derek gushed, as the whole kitchen groaned. "But I'm not going bald for you like Willis did. Forget it." Derek ran his hands through his hair, worried.
"That's it, McDreamy. You better step it up. If I wanted boring, I would have slept with the Vet."
