Chapter One
Meredith hauled her two large suitcases up the stairs to her dorm room on the third floor. Her mother had been paged back to the hospital so she had to do all the heavy lifting herself. Relief flooded over her when she finally saw her room, it was small with two beds, two small dressers and two closets. But she was just excited to start her path to becoming a surgeon. "Are you going to stand there all day or come into the room" a female voice called from inside the room, Meredith then realized that she had been standing in the doorway of her own room. "Oh" she stepped inside, " I'm Meredith Grey" she saw the body hunched over the bed stand up strait and slowly turn around "Grey? As in Ellis Grey the famous surgeon?" Great she hadn't even gotten her roommates name yet and she knew who her mother was. "Yes, she's my mother" the girl immediately walked across the small room and shook Meredith's hand tightly tripping over a few boxes on her way. "I'm Christina Yang, it's a pleasure to meet you." Now she was getting the look, everyone who had something to do with medicine looked at her like royalty once they knew who her mother was. "Nice to meet you too". The rest of the day progressed slowly with Christina pestering Meredith about her mother and how it was like growing up with Ellis Grey for a mother. Truthfully it wasn't something she enjoyed, in fact Meredith hated her childhood. Her father and mother got divorced when she was five because her mother had an affair. She didn't hear from her dad until she was twelve when child protective services was called on her mom, he was then forced to take her. His new family was amazing, they were nice to her and his second wife Susan looked to Meredith as a third daughter, Meredith even called her mom. They had two children of their own after Thatchers divorce, Lexie and Molly. Lexie and her became best friends almost instantly, she was even going to Boston U also this year as a freshmen. Molly was just entering her sophomore year of high school, she was girly unlike Lexie and Meredith. She was a lacrosse player and was class president, she was very likable. She hated herself sometimes because she liked this family more than her mother. Meredith had only begun speaking to her mother the previous school year when one of her colleagues at Dartmouth told her that she was an exceptional student. Defying all odds Ellis, proud of her daughter drove to the campus and had taken Meredith out for a nice dinner. Over the past year Ellis had been in contact with Meredith and the two sometimes went for coffee or lunch. Meredith's train of thought was disturbed when Christina's voice broke the silence, "where did you study before here?" That was a short story she thought "Dartmouth, I didn't like the environment though. It was full of snotty entitled rich brats who just wanted to party. What about you?" Christina didn't hesitate to answer "I was at Stanford but I wanted to get out of the state. More distance between my mother and me" she smiled contented and continued to unpack her clothes from her boxes.The two agreed to get a pizza delivered for dinner and watch some movies, around 6 they heard a knock on door and got the pizza. They still had to do a few things for the room, set up the mini fridge and hang curtains. That sort of thing. All the classes started on Thursday and it was only Saturday so they had time to get to know each other. Christina was nice and they both had a few classes together so Meredith thought they would be good friends.
