Chapter 6 So Many Visitors

She got a huge surprise less than 5 seconds later.

The doors whooshed open and she saw a familiar face, one she had not seen in a while, Preston Burke standing in the doorway. Derek looked up at the exact same moment and was just a shocked as Meredith was.

"Burke, what are you doing here?" Derek said, with a shaky voice. "You left and resigned why did you come back?"

"Well Shep, when the Chief of Surgery at Seattle Grace gets shot, it makes national news. I was worried about you is all. Can't a guy be worried about his friend? Grey, how are you?"

"Um, Dr. Burke, no disrespect, but my name is not Grey anymore, it is Sheppard. And I am fine thank you. Have you spoken to Cristina? I am sure she would want to know that her former fiancée is here."

"You and Shep got married? Congratulations to the both of you. And I was just about to go see her as soon as I saw your husband."

"Thank you," Meredith said curtly, "Oh and Burke, one thing, she is in love with someone else now, Major Owen Hunt. Just thought you might like to know that." And with that, Meredith ignored Burke completely and started kissing Derek slowly. Right after Burke left, someone else came into the room. Assuming it was Burke, Meredith said, "go away Burke, we don't want to see you, take a hint and leave." It turns out it was Cristina.

"Burke is here? Crap! Why? I don't want to see him! Meredith was he here?" she said in a panicked tone.

"Sorry hon, hold on a sec. Yes he is here to see Derek. He was just here and was going to come look for you. So don't hide just stay here, trust me he won't be back." She went back to kissing Derek.

20 MINUETES LATER…

Burke walked back into the room and said "Meredith I couldn't find… oh hi Cristina how are you?" And then Owen walked in. And when he saw the guy talking to Cristina, things got ugly real fast.

"Who the hell are you? And why are you talking to my girlfriend?" Owen snarled at Burke.

"You must be Major Hunt. I am Preston Burke- Cristina's former fiancée. And I was looking for her so I could say hello. So Cristina, is there a head of cardio?" he said turning his attention back to Cristina and away from the big scary looking head of trauma.

"Yes there is and she is AMAZING! She let me do a solo valve replacement. It was such a rush."

Meredith was the next to say something "if you guys don't mind taking this reunion somewhere else, we would appreciate it. And have a nice day!"

She went back to kissing Derek when Addison walked in.

"Seriously! Can't I get some alone time with my own husband for petes sake!"
