Disclaimer: I don't own the characters.


Meredith Grey was walking to her new school, in her new city, in her new state. She had gone back to Seattle when her mother decided to leave Boston and return to Meredith former city due to that specific school. Seattle Grace had a medicine program along with the school. Meredith didn't remember the first time she lived in Seattle since her mother had taken her to Boston when she was only ten months older. It was right after Meredith's father had left.

Meredith knew that her father had another family, but so did her mother. When Meredith was about ten years old, her mother married Richard Webber, who was already like a father to Meredith. Richard and Meredith's mother, Ellis, had a five years old son together, called James. Although Ellis didn't care a lot about family, Richard was the perfect dad, he was always ready to help Meredith, but that day, unfortunately he had been too busy to get her to school. Both of her parents worked on Seattle Grace Hospital.

Meredith was lost in thought when she got to school. She realized that most of the other students had cars or were receiving a lift from a friend or family member.

When she saw the big school in front of her, she got a little scared, but took a deep breath and got in.

There were all types of people inside, which left her a little unsure about what to do. She knew she had to talk to principal Jenkins before classes, but she had no idea where that was. She decided to walk around and see if she could find.

"Are you lost?" an Asian girl asked her. It didn't look like she had a lot of friends, but she sure was holding a lot of books.

"I have to find the principal's office." Meredith answered "Can you tell me which way is that?"

"End of the hallway, on your left" The girl told her.

"Thanks" Meredith said and started to walk way, but then she turned back "What's your name?"

"Christina..." the other girl said "Christina Yang. What is your?"

"Meredith Grey" Meredith said and this time she really walked away.

When she got to principal's office, she saw a line of new students and got on it.

"Hi, are you new here?" A boy walked over to her.

"Yes" Meredith said "I'm new in town"

"Your shoes are really pretty" he said while bushing.

Meredith looked with pity eyes at his attempt of flirting with her. He seemed like a nice boy, but she was at the school to focus on her studying.

"Now you think I'm gay... I'm not gay... My name is George O'Malley" he rambled "If you need any help, you can tell me"

"Thank you" Meredith said "I'll make sure to remember that"

Meredith was called in principal's office.

"So, Meredith Grey" Jenkins said "I heard that you was one of the best students on your last school" Meredith nodded "I hope you keep the grades high here and stay out of trouble" he said.

"Yes, sir" Meredith said.

"I also hope you will be on our cheerleaders team, since your one of the best gymnastics of your age"

"I don't want anyone to know that I'm on the national raking, if it was all right with you… Anyway, I'll do the cheerleader test tomorrow" Meredith explained.

"That's ok. Your secret is safe with me" he said "Here's the key to your locker"

"Thank you, sir" Meredith said, walking out of the room to look for her locker. She had just about five minutes to find it and get in class.

While she was walking to her locker, she saw the cheerleader group. There were five blond girls, four brunettes, a red headed, a freaking out girl, one that looked a little like a horse. Meredith knew that wasn't the group she wanted to be in, but she loved gymnastic.

She found her locker easily, organized her things and got ready to leave when someone got to the locker on her left. That someone didn't get there alone, there was a group of people with him. All of them wore the school basketball team jacket, which explained why they walked in a group.

"Stop bugging me, Mark" the one that seemed to be the locker owner said.

"I'm not teasing you" the one who was probably Mark replied "I'm just saying that almost ever girl at school wants to hook up with you. And you say no to all of them."

"Mark's right, man" another boy said "Chose a girl and invite her to our friday game"

"You too, Alex?" the first guy asked mad "What would Izzie say about that?"

"To stop bugging you" the Alex one said like a child apologizing to an adult "okay, man, you got a point... I'm just saying that you are the school star and you are single"

"And I will say that way until I find the right girl" the guy said, making the rest of the team groan and leave.

"Do what you want man, but if you need some girls name..." Mark started to say before he left, but seeing the glare his best friend was giving him, he thought that maybe he should give up.

Meredith couldn't hold anymore and let out a giggle. The boy closed his locker door to try to find to owner of the giggle.

"You think that was funny?" He asked.

"A lot" she answered. Looking at his awesome body.

"Do I even know you?" He said with a dreamy smile.

"No" she smiled back.

"Derek Shepherd" he introduced himself.

"Nice to meet you" she replied.

"And you are?" He asked.

"None of your business" she answered, even if she hoped it was his business as soon as she saw the amazing blue eyes. She could easily get lost there.

"Feisty, I liked it" he grinned.

"Good for you" she told him.

"Do you know who I am?"

"Derek Shepherd" she replied "You introduced yourself a few seconds ago."

Derek just stared at her, lost of words.

"Since you don't have anything else to say, I'll leave, but if you want some girls names..." she trailed off, leaving him staring after her.

"But you haven't even told me your own name" he muttered, only hearing her giggle as an answer
