Meredith dragged herself out of bed and staggered down the stairs to where her mother the famous surgeon Ellis Grey was cooking breakfast. The kitchen smelt of freshly cooked pancakes and golden syrup. She had her back turned away from Meredith and was humming quietly to herself.
"Mum, are you ok" Meredith said a little shocked of her mother's behaviour; she was usually so serious and focused.
"I'm fine darling, why would anything be wrong?" she chimed back
Meredith was freaking out. "Umm, I'm going to skip breakfast, I want to get to the library before school starts"
"Ok sweetie, have a great day" her mother said
Meredith walked to the front door and headed out to the library, this was going to be a weird day she thought.
She arrived at school with about 1 minute to spare before the bell, racing down the hall way trying to beat the bell; she turned the corner by the cafeteria at speed and come crashing down with another body smacking heads while going down.
Meredith slowly got up and starting rubbing her head with pain, she finally looked at the stranger who was doing the same thing.
"Sorry" She said "I was trying to get to class before the bell"
"It's ok, Me to……"He paused and just looked at her, She was so beautiful, she had the most stunning green eyes and cute little features.
"I'm trying to not be late also, it's not what you want to do on your first day" He said
"Meredith" she said and held out her hand
"Derek Sheppard" he said and smiled a dreamy smile that made Meredith's knees go weak. "I'm the new physics teacher"
"Oh, Well I might be in one of your classes" She smiled back
Shit he thought he was thinking inappropriate things about a teenager.
"Well" he said " I better get going to my class, I'm already late and have a bruise on my head"
"I'm really sorry, I will look where I'm going next time" Meredith said
"It's ok Meredith, I will see you around"
"By Mr Sheppard" Meredith smiled and walked past him
Shit she thought, I can't be attracted to a teacher…..
Meredith made it to class, everyone was already seated with there books out.
She slowly made her way over to her best friend who had saved her a seat.
"Missed anything yet?" she asked
"Only Alex being an idiot, nothing to important" she said
"Good, do you want to know why I'm late" she smiled
"Care factor ZERO Mer, I'm trying to listen" She stated bluntly
"Fine Christina, I wont tell you about the hot new teacher I practically knocked out then"
Cristina turned her head slowly and a smile crept onto her face, "ok fine, tell me"
It was rounding the end of the day and Meredith was getting tired, All she wanted to do was crawl into bed and listen to her ipod. She found her car and jumped in and headed home.
Pulling into the drive was she looked over to see none other than her hot new teacher walking up the drive way to the house two doors down.
Dammit she thought…that's just great!
