"Come on Lexie, we're going to be late." Meredith yelled up the stairs.

"I'm coming already."

"You always do this. Why can't you ever be on time."

"Meredith, we will be on time. You just want to be able to ogle that new guy."

Meredith blushed and turned to the door. "So, when you get to be a Junior you will be noticing the guys too. Besides he is really dreamy."

"Oh Dreamy huh?" Lexie laughed. "So have you even talked to McDreamy yet?"

"No, but I will. That is if that old hag Addison doesn't do her normal tricks."

"Is she a teacher or something? I mean how old is she?"

Meredith rolled her eyes as they walked out to her car.

"No Lex, she's a senior."

"Isn't that the same grade as your McDreamy?"

"Yeah."

"So how is she an old hag and he isn't?"

"One day Lex, one day you will know exactly what I'm talking about."

They arrived at school and Meredith practically yanked my arm off trying to pull me to the school so fast. "Okay, okay, I'm coming." Lexie said.

They turned the corner to where the lockers were and there he was. Meredith stopped on the spot.

"There he is Lex. Isn't he just to die for? Those beautiful blue eyes with that wavy dark hair, and look at the hair. I want to run my hands through it so bad."

"Mere, do you see what I see?' Lexie asked as she looked on with a grimace on her face.

"That bitch. Everytime a new guy comes she has to jump on it. It's not fair Lex." She said as she watched Addison walk up to McDreamy.

"You really like this guy don't you sis?"

"Yeah, I do. I've been watching him and his smile is absolutely breathtaking. He seems to be really nice too."

"Don't give up Mere, you are beautiful. All he has to do is take one look at you and he will fall madly in love."

"Thanks Lex."

Derek looked up from his locker as he smelled her perfume and heard her voice. "Hi." he said,

"Hi, my name is Addison. I'm a senior here. If you need any help getting around let me know." Addison said as she placed her hand on his arm.

"Thanks, I'll probably take you up on that." he said smiling his Derek smile.

"So what class do you have next?"

"American History, You?"

"Biology."

"Oh is that close?"

"No, I have to go to the other end of the school, but I hope we can meet up later." she said to him.

"That sounds good."
"They have a diner over by the mall. Would you like to meet there after school?"

"Yeah, that would be good. See you there." he said as he walked to his class.

Derek hated starting a new school but since his grandmother became ill his dad wanted to be closer to her. They sold their store and moved to Seattle from Boston. He didn't think he would like it much, but after meeting this Addison person he thinks things are looking up.

He walked into the classroom and all eyes turned to him.

"Come in Mr. Shepherd, we've been expecting you."

Derek walked over and handed him his paperwork he got from the office.

"Go ahead and have a seat. Ms. Grey, can you show this young man where we are in the book?" Mr. Gandy asked her. Meredith tried her best to keep the huge smile off of her face. She was going to be helping McDreamy. When he sat down next to her she could smell his cologne and he smelled so good. She showed him where they were in the book and he gave her a huge smile.

"I'm Derek,"

"Meredith." she said as he shook her hand. Her hand tingled where he touched her.

"So you are a Senior too?"

"No, I'm a junior. I'm just ahead of my class."

"Oh a brainiac." he said chuckling.

"No, I just want to get my schooling done so I can move on to college."

"Oh? What are you going for?"

"Medicine."

"Oh yeah? Me too."

They smiled at each other and turned toward the teacher.

Meredith couldn't keep the smile off of her face.
