I Don't Own anything. :)
A/N this is my first fanfic. So be nice. R&R . thanks.
Chapter 1.
"I'm exhausted, this is exhausting. My mother is exhausting, My friends are exhausting, Derek is exhausting. I don't know if I can take it anymore.." Meredith Grey says to herself at the nurse's station one night. She could feel a tear trickling down her face.
As usual it was a rainy day at Seattle, the atmosphere was thick and built with tension in the walls of Seattle Grace Hospital.
Meredith sees him pass by the corridor as if the last few months meant nothing to him. She sees the man that has caused her so much pain. The man that she thought she could have a future with: Derek Shepherd.
He catches a glimpse of her eyeing him, then she quickly turns away. He starts to walk towards her but right before he reaches her he feels a masculine body in front of him. Alex Karev he remembers, one of Meredith's posy.
"Get out of my way" Derek growls,
"Stay away from her, or you will deal with me. You had your chance and you blew it. Don't you dare come running back to her "
"Fine." He says as he walks away.
Meredith couldn't take it anymore, she is usually strong enough to handle things and not breakdown, but tonight was different. She just collapsed and started to cry.
"Mer, are you okay? I'm here for you if you need anything" Alex says.
"Thanks Alex, if you wouldn't mind, could you bring me home after your shift? It's okay if you are busy"
"Sure, Mer. I'll wait for you in about 30 minutes at the lobby, let me just finish these labs."
"Thanks" she says "I'll see you later, Alex" She stands up and heads to the next room to check on her last patient.
Meredith and Alex get into their car (A/N four of them George, Izzy, Meredith and Alex live together.)
The Drive home was quiet, Alex tried to make a conversation, but he knew at the tone of her voice that she wasn't in the mood.
Izzy and George had the day off today so they would already be home.
When they got inside, Meredith and Alex saw Izzy baking and humming to herself while she was making the muffins.
"Happy, Izz?" Alex asked.
"Very, Alex" she grinned. "Dr. Shepherd asked me to assist him in a big surgery today. And it went smoothly"
Alex looked at Meredith. From the car ride she turned pale at the slightest mention of his name. and he swore he could see tears welling up in her eyes.
"Aww, Mer" he said " It's okay" but even with his words Meredith dashed upstairs to her room and bawled out on her pillow.
Izzy looked confused "What did I say??" she said cluelessly. And Alex just shook his head.
