Meredith looked down at the box of hair dye, Derek had left 3 months ago to try and work things out with Addison. Meredith looked at the box of dye and sat it back down on the shelf, she was going all out on this. Meredith looked down at the watch on her small wrist she had a full 5 hours before she had to be at the airport to pick Derek and Addison up. She didn't care what she looked like, till she found out the wife was going to be with him. Plus it was the middle of the summer, so she had an excuse to wear a mini skirt and spaghetti strap that showed off a good amount of her anatomy. Yeah she was acting like a spoiled teenager but she couldn't help it.
Meredith left the store, and searched for a salon. She reached one that looked promising, so she stopped and walked in. She sat in one of the waiting room seats. She picked up one of the hair magazines. She flipped through the pages, she wasn't going to cut her hair that short for a guy like Derek. She turned the page to find a woman with shoulder length hair. LAYERS! That was it. She walked over to the woman at the desk.
"Are you ready ma'am?" The lady asked Meredith with a genuine fake smile.
"Yes, I think I am."Meredith stated.
"Okay than she will be with you in a moment."The lady stated with once again that genuine fake smile.
Meredith watched a short woman walk over to the desk, she was like another Baily.
"Hello, my names Alene Flansberg." The short woman introduced herself.
"Meredith Grey."
"So what can I do for you today?" The short woman asked.
"I want a color, cut, and style." Meredith stated following the woman.
"So what color?" She asked.
"I'm thinking light brown with dark brown highlights." Meredith stated.
"Good choice." She stated as she mixed up the bowl of dark brown color.
The woman applied the dye and told Meredith she had to let it sit for at least twenty minutes. Meredith peered down at her watch, she had 4 hours left till she had to blow Derek's socks off.
20 minutes later, Alene tipped her head back into the sink and washed her hair. She lifted her head up and dried her hair.
"So what do yea think?" Alene asked.
"It looks great! I love it!" Meredith stated.
"Okay now for the highlights."Alene stated.
"So do you know who's coming to pick us up?" Addison asked.
"No I have no idea." Derek stated.
"I sure hope its not that damb intern." Addison stated.
"Don't call Meredith that!"Derek shouted at her.
"Whatever." Addison mumbled.
"So what do yea think?" Alene asked as she blow dried Meredith's hair.
"I love it!"Meredith exclaimed.
"So, what cut do you want?"
"Shoulder length, with layers."Meredith stated looking down at the watch on her wrist. She had an hour an a half left till she was going to walk into the airport to meet Derek after all of the years that have went by.
Meredith walked out of the salon and looked at her cell phone, she had missed 5 calls from Cristina. Meredith flipped open the phone and called Cristina.
"Meredith, where the hell are you?"Cristina shouted into the phone.
"Don't worry, I'm on my way to pick them up right now." Meredith stated.
"Well hurry."Cristina stated slamming down the phone.
Meredith had noticed that she had arrived at the airport just in time to see him walk off the plain, followed by the tall red head he called his wife. Derek searched the crowd for a familiar face. He almost didn't notice Meredith standing fidgeting with her ipod.
"Oh, Dr. Shepard, and Dr. Shepard."Meredith stated as she pulled the head phones out of her ears.
"What did you do to your hair?"Derek asked noticing the shoulder length brown hair.
"Oh, I thought it was a good time for a change."Meredith smiled.
"Change, what's up with the heels? You never liked heels. You also thought the color red was gross."Derek stated with a smile.
"Derek, why didn't you tell me it was going to be 80 here in Seattle."Addison whined.
"Derek looked down Meredith's body, she had worked out, her legs were a nice shade of mocha brown, and the mini skirt, it made him want to rip the tiny piece of fabric off of her and slam her up against one of the nearest walls.
"So we better be going."Meredith stated as she walked out the doors Derek not to far behind.
"So, how's the marriage?"Meredith asked hoping it was all bad news.
"Great." Addison chimed in from the back seat.
"That's awesome, Mike purposed to me last night, but we don't see each other that often so I think he's been a little unfaithful."Meredith stated.
"Yeah, I know how that feels." Derek mumbled under him breath.
"Well I'm sure that your going to find your stay at Seattle Grace to be awesome." Meredith stated.
"So do you have to work today?"Derek asked.
"No, I'm going to run a few errands then kick back with the ice cream and watch a few of my moms old tapes."Meredith stated knowing Derek knew what she meant.
"Well we have to go see the chief."Addison stated.
"I know, I recently found out that the chief is my father, so we have gotten closer. Well we are here, I guess I will see you two tomorrow."Meredith stated.
Meredith drove down the street, god he was so jealous. She pulled up to the stop light a couple blocks from the hospital, the light turned green and she stepped on the gas. Suddenly every thing went black.
