"Mer, stop fidgeting, you'll be fine" said Nick holding Meredith's hand as they walked into Seattle Grace Hospital. Nick had moved to Seattle a couple weeks ago from L.A. when Nick was offered a job as the head of plastics. Nick was the best plastic surgeon on the west coast so the chief of surgery and Meredith transferred into their intern program and today was her first day and she was nervous.

"Goodmorning Dr. Williams" said a man walking up texting into his blackberry. "Goodmorning Dr. Shepard, this is my fiancé Meredith Grey, Mer this is Dr. Shepard the head of neurology he's new too" said Nick. Meredith looked over at him he looked Dreamy with his dark perfect hair and his gorgeous baby blue eyes.

"Nice to meet you Meredith, any relation to Ellis Grey" asked Dr. Shepard.

"She's my mother" Meredith said with no emotion. She hadn't spoken to her mother in years. Then Nick's pager went off and he looked at it

"I'm sorry babe I have to go, we'll do lunch okay" said Nick then he kissed her lips and jogged off leaving her with Dr. Shepard. The elevator opened and they climbed on

"I didn't know Seattle has ferryboats" said Dr. Shepard as the elevator doors closed.

"It is surround by water on three sides" said Meredith smiling.

"Hence the ferryboats, I guess I'm going to have to like it here" said Dr. Shepard. "Where are you from" asked Meredith.

"New York we're genetically engineered to hate everything". Meredith giggled, Derek smiled he like her soft and sweet giggle and that he was the one to make her do it. "What are you thinking she is engaged" Derek thought to himself. The elevator opened

"This is my stop, nice meeting you Dr. Shepard" said Meredith then she walked off. She went to the intern locker room and picked a locker and put her things inside then the other interns walked in.

"Are you new" said a man who looked kind of sweet.

"Have you ever seen her, that was a stupid question" said a Asian woman.

"I was just…" said the man.

"Shut it Bambi, I'm Christina," said the Asian woman opening her locker.

"Meredith Grey".

"You are Ellis Grey's daughter I heard you were coming, I'm Izzy" said a blond girl opening her locker.

"And that is George and Alex, who is your resident" asked Izzy pointing to the sweet looking guy and then a handsome man standing at his locker.

"Um, Bailey" said Meredith.

"We do too" said George.

"Oh, you have the Nazi too we can suffer together" said Izzy laughing.

"The Nazi" asked Meredith.

"That's what everyone calls her here" said Christina.

"Is she really that bad" asked Meredith.

"Um yeah" they all said in unison. They finished getting dressed and they walked to Bailey to start the rounds. Meredith looked at the resident she didn't look that bad she actually looked sweet. Meredith smiled at her and she rolled her eyes

"You must be Grey, let me go over the rules with you, 1 don't bother sucking up I already hate you that's not going to change, 2 this is your pager nurses will page you, you will come at a run, on call rooms are all over attendings usually hogs them all so sleep when you can where you can, 3 when I'm sleep don't wake me unless the patient is actually dying, 4 he bet not be dead when I get there, 5 when I move you move got it" said Dr. Bailey.

"Got it" said Meredith taking her pager. Bailey put her on scut, Meredith was mad it was her first day and she had to spend it doing paper work and going to and from the lab, she knew it was her first day but she had been an intern in L.A. a month she was not clueless.

Meredith called Nick and let him know that she was headed to lunch and he said that he would meet her there. She bought her food and sat a table alone

"Hey how is your first day going" asked Dr. Shepard sitting beside her. She didn't even see him walk up

"It's going fine" said Meredith.

"Good, glad to hear that" said Dr. Shepard smiling. They looked into each other's eyes.

"Mer go get me some coffee" said Nick walking over and sitting down.

"Sure" Meredith said smiling as she stood up and she headed off.

"You need the keys" said Nick.

"For what" asked Meredith confused.

"I want coffee from the Starbucks down the street the coffee here sucks" said Nick holding out the keys. Meredith smiled

"Okay" she said taking the keys.

"Derek do you want anything" Nick asked digging in his pocket and handing her a twenty.

"No thanx" said Derek trying to sound anry. The truth was he was fuming he didn't like the way Nick was treating her. He barely knew her but he felt like he needed to protect her.
