Hi, this is my first Grey's Anatomy fanfic. This is a story where Meredrith never had the miscarriage in S6, Lexie & Mark didn't die in a plane crash, and his daughter with Callie never existed. In this story the Shepards have four kids- Bailey like in the show, Ellis like in the show, Maya, and Anthony . I'm pretending their apartment is really a penthouse and they are filthy rich. Calzona are married, Lexie/Mark, Alex/Jo, Jackson/April, Cristina/Owen have their own familes, and yak yak. And Mark a has a daughter with Addison, and everybody lives in the penthouse together.
DAISY: (To cab driver) ...So then my dad, who's in the marine corps, practically blew his flat top when I told him I was moving to Seattle, but he chilled when I told him I had a great job. (Daisy sips her drink)Do you know where I can find a great job?
(Cab driver closes partition screen, Daisy looks offended)
DAISY: Alright, someone needs some alone time...
(Cab driver takes a violent turn and Daisy is jerked around in the backseat)
DAISY: (While looking through her purse) What the hell? Wait, my wallet's gone! (Continues fumbling through purse) Someone must have stolen it... (Laughs weakly) I don't suppose I can pay you in lip gloss and breath mints?
(Cab driver pulls over to The Fairfield, and Daisy slams into the partition)
DAISY: They're wintergreen…
(Daisy is kicked out of the cab and grunts, while Maya and Alex watch)
DAISY: That was rude! (Daisy's suitcase is thrown out) Ha, ha, you missed me!
(Daisy is hit with her cup; she rubs her head while Maya looks amused. Cab drives away. Alex runs over to Daisy.)
ALEX: (helps Daisy stand) Whoa, you must be a really bad tipper! I'm Alex.
DAISY: (shakes Alex's hand) I'm Daisy.
MAYA: (takes one of Daisy's bras) and I'm guessing this is yours?
DAISY: Oh, thank you sweetie...(Laughs awkwardly) that's just my... slingshot! (Laughs again)
MAYA: (Laughs) she doesn't know it's a bra!
NANNY JANE (the Shephard's old nanny) runs screaming out of the Fairfield lobby)
MAYA: Bye, nanny! …Whatever your name was… (Turns to Daisy) Hey, Daisy, wanna be my new nanny?
DAISY: Aww, thank you sweetie, but I didn't come all the way from Frankfort, in Kentucky, just to be a babysitter. (Stands) I came to Seattle to follow my dreams, cause this is where dreams come true!
MAYA: (Sarcastically) Yeah. Right. Until then, I like my grilled cheese cut in triangles, and my tutu starched! (Grabs Daisy's hand and Daisy grabs her purse.)
(Theme song)
(Elevator to the Shephard/Yang/Karev/Avery/Webber/Torres/Grey/Keepner apartment opens, showing Daisy pulled along by Maya. Richard is dusting the piano as Jackson is playing on it.)
DAISY: Whoa! This is like the Astrodome! But with better furniture.
MAYA: Look, Richard! I found a new nanny in the street! (Jumps up and down) Can we keep her?!
RICHARD: If she doesn't poop on the floor, it's fine with me. (Dusts a picture frame)
Everybody laughs.
CALLIE: Good one, Richard!
DAISY: Wait, don't you wanna ask me anymore questions?
RICHARD: (sarcastically) do you poop on the floor?
DAISY: No…
RICHARD: (sarcastically) Congratulations! You just made the first cut! Wait here, the parents will be home soon to interview you.
(Maya pulls Daisy to the couch.)
DAISY: All this, and all I have to do is take care of one, cute little girl! (Pokes Maya's nose)
(A scream is heard. Daisy turns and watches Anthony, Ellis, and Bailey chase eachother into the living room)
ELLIS: ANTHONY! Give me back my moon! (Tries to take it from Anthony)
ANTHONY: No way!
ELLIS: But I need it for my solar system!
ANTHONY: I'll show you a moon! (He starts to turn, Ellis pushes Anthony onto Daisy, and Maya stands up)
DAISY: (grunts) -Okay, okay!-
(Ellis crawls over Daisy to get to Anthony, Bailey does the same. Ellis hits Anthony with a pillow. Screams are heard, of the Shephard children fighting with each other and Daisy chokes and coughs.)
DAISY: Please tell me those kids are in the wrong apartment!
MAYA: ...Those are my brothers and sister.
RICHARD: Or as I call them, the Nannykillers.
ALONZO: Anthony, Ellis, please, violence is never the solution. (Ellis hits him with a pillow) To heck with the non-violence! I am on you like stripes on a tiger! (He grabs on to Ellis, Ellis screams. Pillow fighting resumes on the floor next to the couch.)
MAYA: I'm the good child. Make me brownies.
(Daisy tries to stop the fighting, and grabs Anthony)
DAISY: Uh,hey! Release! Release! Huh, usually works with the dogs back home...(successfully moves Anthony to the couch.)
ANTHONY: Hello, I'm Anthony...and you are?
DAISY: Way too old for you. (Anthony is hit with a pillow by his cousin Maria, while Daisy turns to speak with Maya.) Do you kids fight like this in front of your parents?
(Elevator door opens, showing Derek and Meredith kissing. Everybody groans in disgust)
MAYA: Sometimes, but they never come up for air long enough to notice...
(Shouting is heard from the kids; Derek and Meredith run to hug them.)
DAISY: (To Richard) their parents are the Shepherds, the famous head surgeon and head of general surgery?!
RICHARD: (Sarcastically) No, they're sheep farmers.
MEREDITH: (to her children and nieces and nephews) Hey guys, we missed you so much!
DEREK: And we brought presents!
(Shepherd children plus Daisy shout with delight)
RICHARD: Not for you, this isn't Oprah.
ARIZONA: Richard, you are so mean!
(Maya pulls Daisy to the couch, and stands on top of it.)
MAYA: This is Daisy. I want her to be our new nanny.
ANTHONY: So do I!
MEREDITH: Nanny Jane quit? Did she say anything before she left?
APRIL: She said you'd be hearing from her lawyers...?
(Meredith stares at Derek, wide-eyed.)
MAYA: And then she said, (screams, Daisy laughs)
DEREK: (changing the subject) who wants to see the cool toy that George Lucas gave me?
(All the children scream 'me', while Derek pulls out a lightsaber, and swings it)
DAISY: Is that a real lightsaber?!
DEREK: Of course not, it's just a prop... (Swings it, and the chair beside him is cut in half. Everyone looks in shock.) AWESOME! (The kids scream with joy) Oh, maybe we better go let that Ewok out of the toy chest...let's go! (Grabs Maya. Bailey, Anthony, and the rest of the kids follow them)
MEREDITH: Ellis! How is your science project coming? I don't care what those judges said last year, I loved your glitter volcano!
ELLIS: Mount Fabulous? Thanks Mom, but this year's going to be even better. I have a clipboard and everything. I'm gonna be super-sciency!
MEREDITH: Okay, Daddy and I will be back tomorrow in time for your science fair, but first we have to perform a plastic surgery.
DAISY: (gasps) I love plastic surgeries! I always wanted to do one!
(scene changes to in the kitchen. Meredith and Daisy are there. Lexie, Mark, Cristina, Owen, Jo, and Alex are also at the table)
MEREDITH: Well, according to our security team, you're a straight-A student, a universal blood donor- which could come in handy with our kids-AND, you have a squeaky-clean record! Except for once in first grade, you went to the bathroom without a hall pass...
DAISY: If you tasted the cafeteria food, you'd completely understand... octopus does not go down easy.
(Meredith sighs, and grabs Daisy's hands. She stares at her extremely wide-eyed.)
DAISY: What'cha doin'...?
MARK: Yeah Meredith, you're scaring the poor girl!
MEREDITH: (gives Mark the finger then turns to Daisy) Just getting a read on ya. I have made a fortune trusting my instincts...that, and taking a risk on everything, and being the best surgeon in the state. You're hired!
DAISY: Really?!
MEREDITH: Yeah!
DAISY: (hugs Meredith) Thank you!
ANTHONY: (runs in, getting a cookie. He apparently was spying) Mom! Can I date the new nanny?!
MEREDITH: Let me think about it. Uh, hell no!
ANTHONY: Oh well, ours will be a forbidden love...
DAISY: Starting now. (She and Anthony leave the kitchen.)
OWEN: Woo-hoo! (Gets a cream soda)
MEREDITH: What?!
CRISTINA: I think Owen's saying that McDreamy boy is like his dad. He is so much like McDreamy senior as well.
MEREDITH: Yeah, I think you're right.
(Scene changes to in the hallway with the children's and Daisy's bedrooms. Only Anthony is there)
ANTHONY: (knocking on Daisy's door) Hey, babe! (Daisy opens the door) Ready for our date? (Produces flowers from his tux)
DAISY: (takes the flowers and puts them in a vase) we don't have a date.
ANTHONY: But I instructed Miranda to make us boeuf bourguignon!...with extra boeuf!
DAISY: Just hold your boeuf! (Ellis walks in, holding a plate of food and her phone. Bailey follows her in) From now on, we're all going to have dinner together...
ELLIS: Hey!
DAISY: ...as a family. Since it's just us!
ELLIS: Eww, no, I can't eat and look at Anthony at the same time!
BAILEY: Me too.
ANTHONY: And Daisy, don't you think having a bunch of kids on our date is kinda gonna kill the mood?
(Daisy just stares at Anthony, then turns to Maya's door)
DAISY: Maya, time for dinner!
MAYA: I'm already eating dinner with my friend, Stephy the Sea otter!
BAILEY: (to Daisy) Maya has imaginary friends.
ANTHONY: Well, I like my friends real, especially my lady friends... (Smiling at Daisy, she pushes him away)
DAISY: Shut it, McDreamy boy. (to Maya) If Stephy can flop down stairs, she is welcome to eat with us.
MAYA: Thank you, but she won't do that. Anthony makes her uncomfortable. (Everyone stares at Anthony)
ANTHONY: (surprised) ...What?
(Daisy pulls the kids along)
(Scene changes, to the Shepard children and Daisy having dinner in the kitchen.)
DAISY: (The kids look bored, staring at/playing with their food)... So! Isn't this nice? ...Would anyone like to share about their day at school? (Kids still bored)
ELLIS: I guess that's a no. Now can I go upstairs and finish my science project?
DAISY: ...Okay, fine.
(Ellis excitedly runs upstairs)
BAILEY: I must leave too. When I don't do my Theatre homework, I get a punishment. (runs upstairs)
DAISY: Of what?
ANTHONY: I'm out too- this date was a total waste of clean underwear!
DAISY: TMI. Now go do your homework.
ANTHONY: You're not the boss of me.
DAISY: Actually, I kind of am.
MAYA: Ooooh, someone's about to flip the table...
ANTHONY (With exaggerated gestures) well, you know what, babe, that doesn't work for me! In fact, that's it! This relationship is over! (Stops at the stairs) And to think, you coulda had all this! (Dance walks backwards before going up stairs)
DAISY: He's delusional- Ha, look who I'm talking to, a girl who thinks sea otters are able to be kept on land... (Maya starts to cry) N-n-n-n-n-no! N-n-n-n-n-n-no, no, what I meant-
MAYA: Stephy the Sea otter is real!
DAISY: N-no, Maya! N-n-no, no-
MAYA: Last time I pick a nanny up out of the gutter!
(Scene changes, to the living room with only Daisy and Richard in it)
DAISY: Okay, I made everyone cookies...and where did everyone go?
RICHARD: Don't know, don't care. I think they might have run away because they hate you.
DAISY: What? Why would you think that?
RICHARD: This note I found.
DAISY: (reading) we're running away because we hate you...
RICHARD: I read between the lines. And look, the H in 'hick' is backwards! It's adorable.
DAISY: I can't lose all of their kids on my first day! What're the parents and everyone else going to say?!
RICHARD: I have no idea, but I say 'well done!'
DAISY: (sigh) I can't believe they all signed this mean note...even the sea otter!
RICHARD: I was going to sign it too but the pen...is so far away...
(Daisy turns and leaves)
(Scene changes to in the lobby of the Fairfield. Daisy looks at the screen and sees the Shepard children climb into a helicopter) Oh, this is bad, this is bad, this is bad, this is bad!
(Scene changes to in the apartment. The children + a disheveled Daisy get out of the elevator. The children are laughing.)
DAISY: I cannot believe you kids actually went up in your dad's helicopter!
ANTHONY: we were only a few feet in the air...
DAISY: I was dangling from the landing skis! (The children laugh.) Oh! Oh, you think this is funny!
ELLIS: Not as funny as your hair!
DAISY: You know what? That's it! Everyone drop and give me twenty! Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it! Hey, that includes Stephy the Sea otter. (Maya laughs) Alright! If anybody eyeballs me, they're going in the hole! (To Richard) Do we have a hole?
RICHARD: Have you seen Trenton's room? (goes to leave for the hospital)
(Scene changes to in the living room, with Ellis and Daisy)
DAISY: Ellis, can I do anything for you?
ELLIS: You can pack your bags and move to this planet! (points to a blue planet on her science project.)
DAISY: That's Earth.
ELLIS: (sees laptop) Oooh! It's Mom and Dad!
The camera zooms in to reveal her parents. Camera zooms out a bit revealing they are at the hospital. Everybody can be seen in the background.
MEREDITH: Hi sweetie!
DEREK: Hey honey!
ELLIS: Hi! Oh, don't look at my project; I want it to be a total surprise for tomorrow!
MEREDITH: El... about your project...we're really sorry, but we're not going to be able to make it.
ELLIS: Of course not! That would be cheating. I'm making it!
DEREK: No, sweetie, the surgery I'm doing tomorrow was changed to a gender reassignment surgery. I mean, there's not enough doctors and the surgeries get changed.
MEREDITH: And tomorrow is the only day that a profession can meet with me to discuss endorsing my amount of solo surgeries.
ELLIS: So...you're not going to be able to make the science fair?
DEREK: You know how it is, sweetie, if I fall behind, the hospital will fire me.
MEREDITH: We're really sorry...
ELLIS: It's okay- don't worry about it. Bye... (Closes laptop, while her parents say they love her)
DAISY: Ellis, you okay?
ELLIS: Why wouldn't I be? I'm used to it. (Stands and moves to the other side of the couch) They missed my tenth birthday because of a arm amputation, and they will probably miss my wedding because of a robot surgery! I just wish someone would find a way to stop the human race! (Runs upstairs)
DAISY: Ellis, wait! Here, I'll help you finish your project! (Trips and drops Ellis's project, gasps. Maya is on the steps) Oh shit.
MAYA: Don't worry Daisy; just do what I do, blame it on Bailey! (Turns and yells) Bailey! You're in trouble! (Winks at Daisy.)
(Scene changes to in the lobby with the Shepard children, Daisy, Lexie, Mark, and Alex. It is the latter three's day off)
DAISY: Hey, Ellis, good luck at the science fair, and remember that Pluto may need some extra glue.
ELLIS: Doesn't matter. But thank you for staying up all night to help fix what Bailey broke...
DAISY: You're welcome.
MAYA: (yells) there's the bus!
DAISY: Oh, guys, your lunches! (Throws lunchboxes at Bailey, Anthony, and Maya. They all scream something along the lines of 'ow') Sorry kids...could of been worse, that tuna could've been canned!
LEXIE: (whispers to Mark) She's so not good at this.
(Mark nods. Alex goes over to Daisy)
ALEX: Poor Ellis is really disappointed, huh?
DAISY: Yeah, I've been try'na reach her parents all morning, but all I get is a voicemail. (sighs) I need to get up there fast, so I can talk to them!
ALEX: Too bad you can't fly Derek's helicopter...
DAISY: Actually, I can!
ALEX: You can?
DAISY: Yeah! My dad taught me! He also taught me how to survive in the desert with nothing but a toothpick and a bobbypin...
ALEX: Really? My dad taught me how to hotwire a car with a paperclip and a penny...well before he abandoned my family. (Throws the keys for the helicopter to Daisy.)
(Scene changes to the surgery room of a transgender teen.)
MAN: Hey! This is a closed surgery!
DAISY: Oh, I just need to speak to Derek or Meredith Shepard. A little girl's happiness is at stake!
MAN: You're not that little. And it's creepy to refer to yourself in the third person. (Leads Daisy away)
DAISY: Wait, no, you don't understand- my name is Daisy- Oh! Are they in here, or... (the man closes and locks the door. Daisy has an idea when she sees the doctors coats.)
(The door opens with Daisy in a doctors coat. She sneaks by the neighboring doctors and ends up in the surgery room.)
MAN: Alright, doctors come over here and start! And remember, corpses, don't smile at the camera!
(A heart points at Daisy, and squirts blood at her when she tries to operate)
DAISY: (Screams) Gross! (Screams) We just met! (Screams)
DEREK: (To Meredith) Wow, that doctor is fantastic!
MEREDITH: She looks really frazzled!
DAISY: (Screams) Help, help! Keep your heart to yourself, Kid! (breaks the equipment in her hand)
DEREK: Stop! (To Meredith) That doctor broke my equipment.
DAISY: Derek! Meredith, it's me, Daisy!
MEREDITH: (surprised) Daisy?!
DEREK: What the hell are you doing here?
DAISY: I came to tell you how much Ellis wants you to be at her science fair.
DEREK: She said it was okay.
DAISY: She lied.
MEREDITH: Oh, well we'll make it up to her!
DEREK: Yeah!
DAISY: When? Haven't you guys ever wondered why you have revolving nannies? Your kids and the other kids chase them away because they wanna get your attention! They miss you. And, even if you fire me for saying this, and I lose the best job I've ever had, you need to start being there for them! (Derek and Meredith look at each other. At the same time, they both say "you're fired" to Daisy) What! N-n-n-no, no, no this is the part where you- you thank me for being honest with you and caring more about your kids than about my job, resulting in warm hugs all around...
MAN: That only happens in the movies. (Pulls Daisy away from the surgery)
(Scene changes to the school where Ellis's science fair is hosted.)
DAISY: (To Ellis) Hey! Did I make it on time?
ELLIS: I'm next, but I don't care...
ANTHONY: Me neither! Let's bounce- (Gets up to leave. Daisy stops him)
DAISY: Hey. You're staying, and you (Ellis) should care! You worked really hard on this, you should be proud of yourself!
ELLIS: Daisy, it's not even-
DAISY: Ellis, listen- I know your parents can't be here physically, but that doesn't mean they're not with you! They are, believe me. Look, (referring to Ellis's solar system project) It's like these planets! They're far away from each other, right, but they have a gravitational pull. That always keeps them together. No matter what. That's what love is like! It stretches over any distance. It's too strong to be broken.
JUDGE: Our last contestant is Ellis Shepard.
DAISY: Go on up there and kick some asteroid! (Ellis laughs, and goes up to present her project. Derek and Meredith arrive late. Everybody else is behind them. They wave at Ellis, Ellis waves at them, and Daisy waves at Ellis.)
ELLIS: This is a model of our solar system. (She flips a switch on the project and it glows and turns.) It demonstrates that even against massive opposing forces, one stronger force can keep everything together. That force is gravy. (Jo fake coughs to remind Ellis) Oh- That force is gravity! (Everyone claps for her)
MEREDITH: Also known as Daisy.
DAISY: You guys came!
JUDGE: Well, students- You're all a disgrace and the reason this country is 28th in science! That is, except for Frankie, and Ellis! Great job, guys. And the winner is...
(A part of Ellis's project falls off. The judges discuss this.)
DAISY: (Whispering) I'm so sorry- it's my fault.
ELLIS: (Mouthing/whispering) It's okay.
JUDGE: And the winner- for her brilliant demonstration that Pluto is no longer considered a planet, thus discussing (?) previous scientific theory- is Ellis Shepard! (Everyone cheers, and Ellis jumps up and down)
MEREDITH: We are so proud of you!
ELLIS: Why did you guys change your mind about coming?
DAISY: Because they love you.
MEREDITH: And, we realized that being there for you is really more important than any job.
DEREK: Even if I never work for that type of surgery again. Or any other surgery! Please Lord don't let me end up in TV...
DAISY: So, let's go celebrate with a nice, family dinner!
ANTHONY: Dibs on sitting next to Daisy! (Owen laughs. Derek leads the group out and back home. Anthony speaks to Daisy with his hand on her back) and maybe after dinner we could...
DAISY: Forget it, green eyes.
(Scene changes to in the kitchen of the penthouse. Everybody and Daisy are there.)
ELLIS: I love victory sprinkles!
MAYA: (she's on Meredith's lap) Uh oh, face freeze!
DEREK: Oh, me too...
CALLIE: Me three.
MARK: So Owen... what's your favorite type of ice cream?
OWEN: All of them. In the war, we just had one kind- melted.
(The kitten, FluffyCakes swipes at Daisy's ice cream and it drops to the floor in front of her)
DAISY: Hey! FluffyCakes, you already had your dessert! You are grounded, go to your pillow! (FluffyCakes leaves the kitchen) Getting pretty good at this nanny stuff.
(End of the first chapter)
Authors Note: Review please, and I'll have Ch2 up as soon as possible. Although I don't think anyone reads my stories anymore; characterized by the lack of reviews on every story of mine. Anyways you guys might wonder whose the rest of the kids, so I will introduce them in the next chapter. Oh yeah, feel free to PM me and give me ideas. One last thing, what family should I do next chapter since I'm gonna do one on each family.
