You Can't Run
Prologue
There's a complicated thing in our world. It's called love. It's everywhere. It bleeds through novels and television shows and movies. It's everywhere in the world as well. It may only be the love between parents that is evident everyday or even just the love a mother has for her child. No matter the situation, it's there. People say there are different types of love; young love, teenage love, lust, or true love. The thing is, love is love for the people who are in it. It means everything to them while they're feeling it. Despite how important it is people mistreat it. They think they're testing it, but in reality, they're testing their partner's and their own strength, their will to keep this going. And when they get to the point that someone gives in, they lose faith in their love. They begin to believe that love wasn't and never will be enough. The journey people go through on the trail of love is a scary and magnificent thing. Anyways, enough mumbo-jumbo. We should get to the point.
Love can be found anywhere, but there is one city that witnessed an amazing love story. The women's name is Meredith Grey. Don't get any ideas; I'm not the guy in this story. I have my own little love story. Meredith's other half is Derek Shepherd. Maybe I should introduce them, as many people know them, Dr. Grey and Dr. Shepherd. At one point in time, they could be considered amazingly lucky. They found each other at a relatively young age. Derek is a little bit older than Meredith, but it never mattered to them. They met in Meredith's hometown of Seattle. To be more specific, they met at work. In case you are familiar with doctor's training at all, Derek was an attending and Meredith just an intern. They fell for each other rather quickly and it spread through the hospital like a virus. I haven't decided if that's because of their lack of discretion or because of the mouths of Meredith's friends.
Let me introduce them to you as well. Meredith's best friend, for some reason unknown to me, is Cristina Yang. She's slightly scary. Trust me, I'm not exaggerating either. I'm being perfectly honest. Do as she says and she might not hurt you. She's a doctor as well. In fact, Meredith doesn't have many friends out side of the hospital. As you may suspect, Cristina is very strong willed. That's the polite way to say it anyways. In reality she's stubborn, horribly sarcastic, rude, but hardworking. Wondering why they're friends? Yeah, so am I. Then there is Isobel or Izzie Stevens. She's the exact opposite of Cristina. She's blonde, hyper, optimistic, and happy. She's always happy. So happy that it scares people sometimes. To throw another type of person into the mix, there is George O'Malley. He's self-conscious and sometimes thought of as gay. Personally, I pity the guy for having to be around these women, but he's not alone. There's also a guy who they all thought of as an asshole at first. Apparently he had some type of secret pain or whatnot. Anyways, his name is Alex Karev. I don't think there really can be much more of variety in a group of people, but that's just me.
Now you're probably wondering who I am. For all you know, I could just be some all-knowing freak who is obsessed with their lives. Well, don't worry I'm not. These people touch my life as well somewhere along the lines after Meredith and I cross paths. If I just come out and tell you whom I am, that'll ruin my fun, so you have to figure out on your own. But like I said, I got to meet Meredith one day. I think I'm pretty lucky since I was able to know her and spend time with her. She's amazing, yet flawed. But who isn't? There are still a million things to know about Meredith and Derek and everything that surrounds their lives, but I can't tell you. After all, if I did, what would the point of the story be?
Just in case you were wondering, I'm not going to say who is the narrator of the prologue. He's a character that I created myself and you'll meet him later on when Meredith does. The rest of the story isn't written in 1st person, either.
I should have the first chapter up soon!
