Chapter 6.
A/N thanks for all the reviews guys. It made my day. I'm sorry to say this, but I will not be updating for a few days after this, probably 3 days, because my parents think that it's not healthy to lounge around the computer all day. Isn't that sad? But maybe I could sneak around. But if I do, it will probably be short. Ha-ha. Short? Or wait? What do you think?
I don't own Grey's Anatomy. Sadly. I wish I did though; I would give up my chores and my dog-walking status for Grey's Anatomy show writer. Ha-ha.
Everything was all right between Alex and Meredith. They hoped it was. After last night's Adventure they, all three watched a movie called Sixth Sense.. (A/N I just watched it last night.)
They were at the scariest part of the movie, when lightning struck, they were all so scared, Meredith jumped on Alex (who was in the middle) and George jumped on Meredith.
They all screamed except Alex, who was brave enough to bare a thunderstorm. Alex cracked up laughing at the two cowards.
"Hey George as much as I like a girl in my lap, I don't want her that heavy," Alex said.
"Mind you Evil Spawn, I'm only 118 lbs. and George here is about 170 lbs." said Meredith.
"I don't care how much either of you weigh, just as long as both of you GET OFF MY LAP!" Alex said.
The two got off his lap and sat in their seats, they resumed watching the movie for a few minutes, then they heard banging on the door, and suddenly it opened leaving behind a figure of a tall person who had their hair soaked, like a witch!
Again Meredith and George jumped on Alex's lap, but this time, George was in the middle, which was very awkward for the two boys, also all three of them screamed now.
And the figure erupted in laughter, it came in to the light slowly but before that the three thought they saw a flash escape the figure's hand.
George, Alex and Meredith were dreading to see it's face. But when the figure slowly came into the light, it was none other than Izzy!
Izzy was still laughing when she came into the house, "What are you guys doing? Seducing each other? I didn't think that Alex would seduce George." And she laughed some more.
"No we are not!" cried George who quickly got of Alex's lap, tossing Meredith to the side of the couch.
Alex still didn't get over the surprise; he was sitting there, still, like a ghost. And then he finally spoke.
"I screamed because of Izzy. I screamed because of HER??" he said
Now all of them, including Alex, burst out laughing.
"You know what I took a picture of this scene," Izzy said in between giggles, "I'm going to photocopy it and spread it around the hospital." Izzy said laughing.
"What??" All three of them said simultaneously in response. With their response, Izzy laughed more, if even possible.
"Go to sleep," Izzy said while she was climbing up the stairs.
They al followed still scared of what might happen to them. Alex gave a small yawn. "I'm tired." He said "Same here" Meredith replied. "How will we sleep, through the bad dreams?" George quietly said. But everyone heard him, Izzy laughed again.
They all went to their rooms, it was silent after that, all they could hear were the trees swishing, and the heater's noise, and the crickets in the backyard. The three, Alex, George and Meredith, were still suffering from the frights.
'It's going to be okay George, don't be scared, and don't climb into anyone's bed.' George told himself. But little did he know Alex and Meredith were thinking the same thing.
After a few minutes, Alex got up. He couldn't bear lose sleep, he already had a 2 month suspension, he couldn't add anymore to that by not paying attention to the Nazi. He got up and knocked on Meredith's door.
"Come in" Meredith said. She was happy someone was coming to be with her. Alex slowly opened the door, and stepped inside her room.
"Hey, you too?" Alex said, referring to the not being able to sleep situation. Alex climbed in her mattress. They were quiet for a moment, listening to the rustle of the trees and the radiator humming. "Do you think it will always be like this with us, Mer?" he said.
"Like what, Alex?" Meredith knew what the answer was to her own question, but she couldn't bring herself to say it.
"Like when it's only the two of us, The awkward silence? Will it get better?" asked Alex. "I hope so." Meredith said, although hesitantly. "Enough serious talk." Alex said, he couldn't bare talk about what they had just fix, risking to destroy it. "Okay then." Meredith said.
"Can you believe us? I bet George is sound asleep, and he is supposed to be the scaredy-cat." They both laughed. Then they heard a knock on the door. "Come in" they both said at the same time. Meredith giggled.
George opened the door slowly, revealing himself in Pj's. He was surprised that Alex was already there, but happy he wasn't the only on scared.
"Speak of the devil" Alex said to lighten up the mood.
George crawled in beside Meredith, who was in the middle this time. All three of them looked up at the ceiling.
"Well guys, we better get some sleep. We have a work day tomorrow." They weren't usually this aware of work, heck most of them come in late, but all of them are in a short leash, Meredith has been late more times to count, and she needs to catch up not to be suspended, George was found sleeping on the job, he could also be suspended, even more trouble then what Meredith will be in. Alex, well Alex, is already suspended, they could add more to his time though. And Izzy, she just liked coming to work early.
They all closed their eyes and drifted of to sleep. Luckily, Alex and George were heavy sleepers, so they wouldn't here Meredith's snores.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………...
The next morning, Izzy had wake up duty, they planned it out so that none of them are late. She went in George's room but surprisingly, he wasn't there. She also checked Alex's room, but the same thing happened.
She had an idea were they were, if not awake already. She giggled to herself mischievously, she got her camera, the one that had last night's picture. And she walked quietly and slowly into Meredith's room, so she took the picture, and burst out laughing.
Because of the laugh Alex and Meredith woke up. "Huh?" Alex said aloud. "Izzy!!" he screamed when he saw the camera in her hand. Izzy laughed again.
"You guys are so funny" said Izzy. "Come on, get up, and wake George up."
They found it hard to wake George up, but they finally accomplished it in 20 minutes.
All of them went down to eat breakfast, pancakes. George was only half awake. But they knew that he would be fully awake when the coffee kicked in. And that's what happened.
They all got in the car and drove to the hospital; it was Meredith's turn to drive them there.
Meredith had a date that night, so she would only be there until 6'o clock and Izzy would be going with her because she also had a date with the mystery man.
"Hey Izz, speaking of dates, how come you came home early last night?" George asked.
"If you where paying attention Bambi, I came home at 3 in the morning." She replied.
"Oh." George said to himself. He didn't realize that they slept that late.
They were at the hospital and Meredith parked the car. The four of them walked together towards the hospital. Izzy's mind seemed to be occupied that morning.
Derek saw Meredith and her friends walking to the hospital, 'Hey how come, Alex told her? They are friends?' he thought.
"Hey Mer!" he shouted. Meredith turned around to look at him and smiled. She said bye to her friends and walked towards him, right now they were just friends, she thought, after that encounter yesterday, we are friends. Meredith said to herself.
"Hey Derek. You are coming in late today." She said because he usually got there before the interns did.
"Yeah, late night." He said. Meredith thought 'with your wife?' but the real reason was that Derek got into a fight with the chief because he found out some annoying information.
"Oh, Okay" right at that moment Meredith got a call from Alex. "Sorry, Derek it's Alex."
"Hello?" Meredith said. "Mer, you got to come see this. Be ready to kill Izzy. Talk to you later." Then he hung up. Derek was confused, she looked confused.
"Come on Derek, Izzy did something, we just don't know what." She said while running into the hospital.
She stopped. She saw George gesturing her to the nurses' station, then she saw it, everyone was surrounding it, It was the pictures. THE PICTURES.
"Oh my god, Izzy is so dead!!" Meredith said. Derek didn't know what she was talking about, but when he saw the pictures he laughed to himself. It was of George, Alex and Meredith sitting on the couch with fright.
Everyone laughed, even Bailey. But there was work to be done. "Everyone, as much as this humors me…" she was actually laughing "There is work to be done, SO GET TO IT." Everyone left and went to work.
"Grey, you are on the Thompson case, Karev and Martinez, you are down at the pit, O'Malley, and you are assigned to OBGYN, Stevens, Cardio for you today. (A/N Martinez, is Paula's last name)
After everyone went to their respective places, Meredith went to Melanie's room, she was happy that the little girl was all right. For now.
"Hi, Melanie" said Meredith.
"Who are you? I want my mommy and my name isn't Mel not Melanie.." cried the little girl.
"Melanie, I'm Dr. Grey, you can call me Meredith." Meredith said, she needed to hear the news, step by step because she could break down, this little girl will have to go through a surgery for face reconstruction and another if something goes wrong.
"Meredith, where's my mommy? I want my mommy"
"Mel, listen to me first, okay? Listen to me. I need you to remember everything that happened."
"I don't know, mommy said don't talk to strangers."
"But Melanie, I'm not a stranger, I'm Meredith remember, Please tell me what happened, then I'll go away if you like." That was all Meredith could do, Melanie's mom had not made it, and her dad is probably brain dead by now.
"I don't want to you to go away, Meredith, please stay with me, please." The little girl pleaded.
"I'll stay with you Mel, I just need to know what happened." She needed to take it slow with the little girl if she wanted to be trusted.
"It was this morning, I know it was morning because daddy teached me how to play the piano, he does that every morning."
Meredith nodded, she was glad she was making progress. "What else happened Melanie?"
"Umm… mommy was cooking breakfast, and then she screamed so daddy came in to help her and left me on the seat, I was still practicing, and then I don't remember."
"Melanie, please try, please try for me okay, me your friend."
"I don't know." Melanie started to cry.
"It's okay to cry, Mel, I cry a lot, really I do."
"You do?" Melanie looked up to her, her face was still burned but Meredith could see her soft features.
"After that, I also heard daddy scream, then he came running to me, then he carried me to go downstairs, then after that I really don't remember."
"It's now Mel, I have all I need." Meredith gave her a small smile. Then she heads towards the door.
"Where are you going?" Melanie asked.
"I'm going to go to get you some food, to be honest.." Meredith started to whisper. "The food here isn't that good, so I'll get you some McDonald's at the next building.
"Okay Meredith" She smiled.
Meredith gets the food for her, George, Alex, Izzy and Melanie; Meredith introduced them to her so that she wouldn't feel alone. After eating and chatting among her new friends, she falls asleep with a smile on her face, so all four of them move out.
Before they leave, Meredith says to Alex "How am I going to tell a kid like that, that her parents are dead?" she sighed.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………...
Izzy and Meredith left for home. They had dates to get ready for.
Meredith goes for jeans and a long t-shirt, navy, her favorite color. Izzy wears a pink blouse and a skirt.
Meredith's date was going to meet her at Joe's bar. She was happy with the choice of location, even though it was not that high-end, because she could always fake an emergency at the hospital.
When she got at Joe's her date was already there, he was good-looking and all, but he had those kind of eyes you see on a guy who has nothing better to do than watch TV.
"Hi, I'm Meredith." She sits down to shake his hand and weirdly he shakes back "Oh h-hi you are really pretty," he says "Okay? What's your name?" she says. 'God he is like a child, I'm going to kill Izzy. Not only does he have a stutter but he has spit flying all over the place.'
"Oh, I'm P-Pete." He says. Meredith looked away; he got spit on her face. "Let's eat now Me-Meredith."
"Yeah, okay" Meredith was trying to be nice, but he was really disgusting.
"Waiter!! W-waiter!" Pete shouted. And then when he said that, Meredith felt arms around her waist 'What the hell? Derek and George and Alex are still working who is this guy?' she thought
"Oh sorry am I interrupting?" the mystery man said. Pete was frozen in silence. "Umm, this is my girlfriend" as the man slides beside Meredith in the vacant chair, he gives her a quick kiss on the lips.
"G-girlfriend??" Pete says. He is stunned. "Sweetie, tell this man who I am, aren't I your fiancé?" the man said.
Meredith decided to play along, this man was really good –looking. "Oh yes. Sorry Pete, Got to go." She gave him a smile, she couldn't help but feel a little sorry for him, he was the victim in all of this. Pete quietly left, clearly disappointed with himself, he actually thought he could finally not be a virgin tonight.
When Pete left, Meredith turned to look at the Man. "I owe you thanks, would you want me to buy you a drink?" Meredith asked
"So you could take advantage of me? Finally the girl comes to her senses and makes a giant leap on the social ladder." The man chuckles.
"Who said it would be a giant leap? Who says it would be a tiny leap? Man, you got your ego in the wrong place." Meredith replies with a giggle.
'Damn that giggle is hot' The man thinks.
"Well then, I would love that drink right now." He said.
"Hey Joe! A tequila and a beer" Meredith calls out.
"Since you rescued me from that gross stuttering weirdo I guess that makes you my night-in-shining-whatever." Meredith says with a grin.
"Since I am your night-in-shining-whatever, do I get a kiss?" he says while he raises his eyebrows.
'Mer, come on you don't know his name, you can't kiss him' She thinks. "Are you a doctor?"
'I'm a surgeon, but she doesn't need to know that' he thinks. "No, I'm to hot to be a doctor." he hesitantly says.
"Then, we'll see." She says smirking. Joe gives them they're drinks and they start talking again.
"I'm Mark, and you are?" he says. "Meredith Grey, I'm an Intern at SGH." 'Holy shit, I might have to see her, aww man, but she's hot, it's okay.' Mark was the new plastic surgeon at SGH, but Meredith didn't know that YET.
They talk about different things, where they grew up, and other stuff.
Mark pulls his chair nearer to her, they were so close, their lips almost touching so Meredith makes the first move.
They started to kiss each other, they both closed their eyes, she felt his tongue between her lips which she shortly after opened, giving him better access then his tongue was inside her mouth, not very far, but went out again. They came up for air, then started again, but this time it was Meredith in control, she kissed him, strange that his lips were so soft for such an edgy guy, she kissed him again and gently pushed her tongue against his mouth, and he gasped, he inhaled sharply through his nose and started kissing her harder this time.
"Hey, I thought I was in control" Meredith said. But she was silenced when they started kissing again.
"Get a room!" one of the guys from the room shouted.
"You want to come back to my hotel?" Mark asked smirking.
"You seem pretty sure of yourself" Meredith said.
"Well, girls find me irresistible, once they start, they can never stop" he said still smirking.
"Really?"
"So what? You coming with?" He asks again awaiting her response.
"Okay" she smiles, she knows she has broken her rule, but this offer was to good to pass. "Let's go" she said. They both went outside and Meredith started to shiver.
"You cold?" Mark asks, he puts his jacket on her.
"Do you do this to all your girls Mark?" she asks teasingly.
"Well, it's usually tall and girls with a little fat so that they don't really get cold." He smirks. "Like trophy girls" he says as they both walk to his car.
"Ummm Mark. I think its trophy wives." Meredith says.
"I'm to cool of a man to have a wife, if I did she would suffer because all her friends like me." He says.
When they get to the hotel, they start kissing again in the elevator.
"You should be pretty rich to be living here" Meredith says.
"Yeah, not really it's just that I get the best girls." Mark says in reply.
Once they reach their floor, they kiss a lot and Meredith bangs into the door. "Let's go in" she says
"Im not stopping you" He opens the door and both of them get inside.
"I should really hang up my coat." Meredith says.
"You mean my coat, which by the way looks really hot on you." He says. He reaches out to take of her coat along with the straps of her blouse and his hands brush against her bare arms but he quickly pulls away.
"Stage fright?" she asks.
"Me? Scared? Never." He replies.
"Stay there, I'll be back" she smirks. She goes into the bathroom to change in a big white hotel towel, when she goes out his eyes enlarge. She could see that he stripped down and now all he is wearing is his jeans.
He stands p and starts to kiss her. At first it was soft and tender, but he slightly quickens the pace and makes it more forceful.
She runs her hands against his chest and she kisses back. Then she pushes him back so he groans " Do you really want to?" she says seductively.
"You have no idea" he replies.
He pulls her towards him and starts sucking on her neck and leads her to the bed, both of them knowing what would happen next.
She wakes up to his clam and stable breathing. Last night was amazing she thought, they orgasmed 6 times. Soon he shifts and opens his eyes to look at her.
"For a cocky manwhore, you were pretty good"
"For a slutty intern, you were pretty great yourself."
