At Joes, Meredith and Alex are there, everyone else is on call at the hospital.
"I can't believe Derek cheated on me with my half sister!" Meredith said in a drunken daze.
"I am sorry Mer, he is a bastard for doing that to you." Alex said.
"Joe, another shot of tequila!"
"No, Mer you have had enough alcohol, I will take you home." Alex said.
"No, I want more!" Meredith slurred.
"It is getting late, lets go."
"Fine." Meredith muttered.
At Meredith's house.
"Ok, Meredith lets get you to bed." Alex said.
"Will you come and lay with me?" Meredith asked.
Alex looked at her stunned. "What?"
"I need someone with me and Christina is on call, please?"
Alex sighed. "Ok."
Both Meredith and Alex headed up stairs. Alex went to his bedroom to get changed into his pajamas and headed to Meredith's room.
"Thanks, Alex." Meredith yawned.
Soon both fell asleep laying next to each other.

At the hospital, Izzie and Christina are talking by the nurse's station.
"I wonder why Meredith left in such a rush." Izzie said.
"I bet her and Mcdreamy got in a fight again." Christina replied.
All of sudden George appears in front of them out of breath.
"What's wrong with you, Bambi?" Christina asked.
"I-I just saw Lexie and Dr. Shepherd coming out of the on call room." George said trying to catch his breath..
"Oh my god!" Izzie shrieked.
"Yeah and Dr. Shepard had lipstick all over him." George said.
"Are you serious?" Christina looked at him unbelievingly.
Then Derek comes around the corner heading towards the interns.
"Hello, Doctors, I will need an intern for my craniotomy in an hour, who wants to scrub in?" Derek asked with a smile.
"You bastard, I can't believe you cheated on Meredith!" Christina yelled.
"Excuse me?" Derek asked nervously.
"Don't play stupid, George saw you." Christina said.
"I am your boss, Dr. Yang, you have no authority yelling at me." Derek replied calmly.
Then Dr. Bailey appeared, not looking happy.
"What are you all shouting about?"
"Ask Dr. Shepherd." Izzie said disgustingly.
"All right, all three of you go down to the pit." Bailey advised.
The interns groaned and walked away. When Doctor Bailey turned around, Derek was out of sight.
Dr. Bailey sighed and mumbled to herself. "I wonder what that fool did now?"

It was 2 A.M. and Meredith was crying to herself. Alex woke up to her sniffling and turned to her.
"Hey." Alex said.
"I'm sorry I woke you up." Meredith replied.
"It's ok, so want to tell me what happened?" Alex asked.
"Not really, I-I just walked in on them and he didn't even come after me." Meredith said in a trembling voice which then turned into sobs. Then Alex hugged her whispering kind words to her.
"Thanks, Alex for being here for me and all, your not as bad as everyone thinks you are." Meredith said through her tears.
"I will always be there for you Mer. So, I am no longer the Evil Spawn?" Alex smirked, which made Meredith laugh.
"No, I guess not."
"Anyway, Meredith your better with out that jackass. You're a beautiful, smart girl that deserves so much better."
Meredith hesitated. "You really think so?"
Alex smiled and squeezed Meredith's hand. "Of course."
Then Meredith leaned in and kissed Alex on the lips. This surprised Alex, but he kissed her back. Then it got passionate, when Alex stopped and looked at her.
"Are you sure you want to do this Mer?"
Meredith looked him in the eyes and nodded.
