Hi there,
If you're new to this story, please note that this was originally published on a Grey's fanzine back in 2006 and despite a brief attempt at editing in 2009, has remained mostly dormant since then.
I had the lofty goal of editing the story for content errors back in 09, but unfortunately as a (theoretical) grownup with a full time job and other responsibilities, I never gave myself the time to make the changes I felt appropriate.
This is the only multi chapter story I've ever written to completion and I felt the need to ensure it was posted, in its entirety, somewhere other than a message board.
Please keep in mind that i'm posting this completely un-beta'd and un-edited because the story was originally posted in a more collaborative environment. You will find typos and for that i sincerely apologize.
If you're new or (god bless you) returning to this, welcome and please enjoy. If you'd like to leave feedback (positive, constructive, or even negative) please feel free to do so.
Please also note that the only character I claim responsibility for is Lauren. The characters do not belong to me. If i've seemingly taken the intellectual property from anyone other than Shonda Rimes, please point it out as that was not at all my intent.
If there are song lyrics that seem to be uncredited, please let me know as i have not (and will never) be talented enough to write a song or any poetry.
Thanks again and i hope you enjoy!
