AN: Post 13x20. Fluff.
Not many words were spoken from the airport to the hotel. Riggs had gotten them a suite in a five star hotel. He decided that he might as well spoil her when he had the chance.
Riggs opened the door to their room and gestured Meredith to go first.
"Aren't you a gentleman" She said with her sparkly eyes and went inside.
"Nice enough?" He asked as he brought their bags inside. He walked towards her, so that he now was standing right behind her.
She turned around and just smiled at him. Her smile made him smile, and when he smiled it made her knees weak. He closed the distance between them with a kiss. The kiss was soft and sweet. She pulled away before it developed into more. "I need to eat first." She said and tapped him on his shoulder.
"Before what?" He asked with a smirk since he clearly knew what she meant. When she didn't get a chance to answer before he continued. "I'll order room service."
"I'll just lay in bed and close my eyes until the food arrives." She told him.
"They said it would take 20 minutes, I ordered pizza." He said as he joined her in the bed.
They were so tired. They just layed there side by side eyes closed. Their arms were touching.
"Crazy day" Riggs said
"Yep." Meredith replied.
Meredith intertwined their hands. She could feel that Riggs was grinning. "Shut up." Was all she said.
"Room service." They heard a knock on the door.
"I think I fell asleep." She said.
"Me too. I'll get it." He said and went to get the pizza.
Meredith was now sitting in the bed, so she clearly wanted to eat the pizza in bed. She had even put the pillows on his side so that he just could sit next to her comfortably. When he brought the pizza she could see that he had two glasses and a bottle of champagne as well.
"Champagne? You're really cheesy." She said.
"We've a lot to celebrate." He said and sat down next to her.
"What exactly?" She asked.
"We saved lives today" He answered.
"That's our job. We do that everyday." Meredith said.
"Ok then, we were on a plane that didn't crash." Riggs came up with another reason.
"Good point." Was all she said.
"And..." He hesitated
"And what?" She asked and looked at him.
He didn't know how she was going to react to his next celebration. "We... are... a couple? That would be something to celebrate."
"Are you asking me or are you telling me?" She said and he looked worried, but she soon washed away his worries. "...'Cause if you're asking me then yes, I would say that we are a couple. Or at least heading that way."
"Well then. Cheers to saving lives, getting safely off a plane and being together." He said as he gazed into her eyes. They raised and clinked their glasses before they started eating.
"I'm so tired, but I really need a shower before going to sleep." Nathan said when they were done eating. "I don't want to get out of this bed again."
"Would it be easier if I told you that I need a shower as well." She teased.
"Do you?" He asked eagerly.
"Maybe" She said and then continued. "Don't lock the door."
He got out of bed and went to the bathroom.
She went into the bathroom right after him.
When they were done showering they put on the hotel's robes, and crawled back into bed. Meredith was the first one to speak. "These robes really aren't that comfortable."
"I know, right?" He replied.
"Maybe we should just get out of them." She suggested.
"I'm not sure I can go another round tonight Mer." He was clearly tired after the long day they had had.
"Seriously Nathan? That's not what I meant. We just did it twice in the shower, how needy do you think I am?" She said a tad annoyed. "I just want to get out of this robe so that I can get a comfortable night of sleep." Now her voice was calmer.
"Sorry, but yeah that sounds like a good idea."
They slipped out of their robes and went to sleep. First both of them were laying on their backs with a respectable amount of distance between them, but as soon as she switched to laying on her side not facing him, he switched position and spooned her. He pulled her close with his arm around her waist. He kissed her neck and said "I definitely could get used to this."
"Good night Nathan and sorry I kind of freaked." She said and both of them fell asleep grinning like idiots.
AN: There will be at least one more chapter.
