Meredith's Point of View
"Where the hell am I?" This is seriously freaking me out, I can't see anything, not black or white just nothing.
"Meredith!" Spinning around I see Christina and Alex standing there, they look as confused as I am. Being realistic I know this has to be a dream, I mean there's no ground or sky just space. So I'm just dreaming, although this is a weird dream even for me.
"Hello Alex, Christina and Meredith." As soon as we hear another voice we all turn around to see a woman. She's not beautiful or ugly, short or tall but completely average.
"The four of us have much to discus. However before I speak of what is about to happen to your lives you must understand that you most likely will not believe me and think this is simply a dream. This is not a dream but that will be proved later on, for now you must listen to what I have to say." As the woman says this I've already convinced myself that this is a really weird dream, but since I'm probably not going to wake up anytime soon I might as listen to what the dream lady has to say.
She starts to speak again before anyone can comment "The three of you are being given a second chance at life and your future can be whatever you wish it to be. In history this has happened several times, some people use their knowledge of the future to change the world, some have become rich by knowing the stock market, some live a peaceful life as housewives, and one person even became the President of the United States of America. Your future is up to you but be aware that you will physically not be able to tell anyone what has happened to you. The only people that will ever know of your other life are the three of you and your future partners. When your partners love you so much that nothing will ever become between you I will inform them of your previous lives. When you wake up it will be the 1st of July 2006, your first day as interns at Seattle Grace Hospital. Right now each of you have an important decision to make, each of you get to choose one thing that will or won't happen. For example you can ask for someone to come to Seattle, this means even if the time line changes this event will still take place. The only restriction on this is that while you can choose for a lover to come to Seattle I can't cause them to fall in love with you. Please select the event you want to guarantee or stop from happening now."
I think I'm crazy I'm actually taking her seriously, although its not like answering her will change anything, this is just a dream after all. While I'm thinking of something in my past that I wouldn't want to change my dream version of Christina starts talking.
"I want Owen Hunt to still move to Seattle and start working at Seattle Grace Hospital"
"Thankyou Christina, Alex have you made your choice?" the dream lady asks causally.
"I don't want there to be a plane crash involving doctors from the Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital or Seattle Grace Mercy West Hospital or Seattle Grace Hospital, whatever the stupid name is."
"Thankyou Alex, Meredith your answer?"
I know what I want, "I want Lexie Grey to do her internship at Seattle Grace."
"Very well, now that that is out of the way I have one last point to cover with you before you wake up, while you can choose to live the same lives as last time, be aware that some things will be different as you as a person are different and you will naturally act differently, even small changes will cause things to be slightly different. Now good luck and I hope you live successful happy lives."
God that was I weird dream, my head feels like it's about to fall off actually my whole body hurts. Opening my eyes I see why my body aches. I'm on the couch, naked, I'm on the couch naked. I haven't fallen asleep naked on the couch for years, especially since I have two kids. I look around the room and I feel my heart stop. I'm in my old house with my husband on the floor naked. My old house and a young looking husband, I must still be dreaming. But what if I'm not dreaming? Well if this is a dream it won't hurt to play it out.
I get up and wrap a blanket around myself and throw a pillow on Derek's ass. He stands up and I stare at him, he looks amazing, young, he looks young.
He opens his mouth to speak, "This is uh…"
I cut him off, realising that this time eight years ago I kicked him out, "Humiliating on so many levels. Umm you should probably go."
Derek gets a smirk on his face, "Why don't you come back down here and we'll pick up where we left off."
"No seriously you have to go I'm late which isn't what you want to be on your first day of work."
"So uh you actually live here" Derek says with a funny face.
Well yesterday I didn't, yesterday I lived with you in our beautiful house you built for me and our kids. Kids oh my god, Zola and Bailey! What if this isn't a dream? What if this is actually happening? Ok calm down it's just a dream, I'm just acting out a dream. Okay answer the young dream version of your husband how is looking at you funny, "No yes kind of."
"It's nice, a little dusty, a lot but it's nice, so how do you kind of live here?"
"I moved from Boston a couple of weeks ago, it was my mother's house I'm selling it." Well it least that was what I thought I was doing the last time I had this conversation., now he's going to think my mother's dead. Crap, my mum's not dead at this point.
"Oh I'm sorry"
"For what?"
"You said was."
"Oh my mother's not dead she's … you know what we don't have to do the thing"
"We can do anything you want."
"No the thing exchange the details, pretend we care, look I'm going to go upstairs and take a shower and when I get back down here you won't be here so um goodbye Derek. I had a great time last night. Oh by the way my name's Meredith."
"Nice meeting you, Meredith."
"Bye Derek"
I turn around and run up the stairs, when I get upstairs I start hyperventilating. I'm starting to believe that this is actually happening. I have to get to the hospital, if by the time I get there and I haven't woken up I'm going to start believing this is actually happening. If this is happening I have to have Alex and Christina.
