Richard gave them instructions to go to their locker room and get their stuff and not to even attempt to try and work. After a serious glare they left still unsure if they were in trouble or not.

After they left Richard just laughed at their antics and made his way to his car, thinking that no matter how old they were, they would always be his children and he would be there to look after them!

Alex walk with his sister all the way to the locker room with out muttering a word unsure if she was still mad at him, he knew that the silence could not last for ever! Could it? No! he just needed to work out what was the best way to say sorry to his little sister. Tequila was normal a good start but that might not go over well seen as they were already in trouble!

Meredith couldn't believe the nerve of her brother! He'd called her a whore to their father, well that maybe not have been the exact wording but it was the same thing! It not like he was any better or their older brother Mark! But she knew she wouldn't stay mad at him for long.

When they arrived at the locker room Alex opened the door and when straight to his locker then sat on the bench, "Man I can't believe him! Treating us like we're still kids! "don't even think of working your shift ended an hour ago!" Who does he think he is!" Meredith just burst out laughing. "It not that funny Mere!"

"No, but he's our dad and the chief of surgery, he can order everyone around!" Meredith managed to say through her laughter.

"Still it's not that funny!" Alex snapped "why are you laughing?"

"Well not only did you do a terrible impression of dad which is funny in it's self but you said exactly the same as Mark earlier! "I can't believe him! Treating us like we're still kids!" that's what's funny!" she told him with a little giggle.

"Yeah well it must be true then! Come on we need to go meet him before he freaks again, hopefully we can avoid all the "cutie" childhood stories if we remind him that Marks Really drunk!" can the hopeful reply, as they made their way to the elevator.

"I doubt it you know how he is, he NEVER misses a chance to remind anyone how he brought us up!"

"That and how much trouble we got in!"

"I you mean some of us! I was angel!" Meredith said while pretending to draw a halo above her head.

"Yeah, says who?"

"Dad, I was doctor daddy's little angel! While you were doctor dad's headache!" Meredith play fully punched Alex as the doors open, then she ran out of the lift straight into the parking lot with Alex hot on her heels.

"What on Earth are you two playing at?" Richard's voice stopped them both in their track by the car.

"I was just explaining to Lex that I was your angel daddy!" Meredith answers in the sweetest voice she could put on.

"hummmm… well then Angel I think you should get in the car so we can see what trouble you big brother is in!" Richard said in an amused tone.

"Dad she said I was just a headache!" Alex moaned

"You know your not Lex, your only half of it, and now I need you to get in the car so we can see what sort of state the other half is in!" Richard laughed.

And with that the two got in to the front seats of the car and set off to see if Mark could follow his instructions like his younger siblings had!

AN- well I said I'd given up but as I had nothing to do today I thought I would write some more as this scene has been playing on my mind for now for about a month! I know that Meredith and Alex seem a bit over the top childish but that's how my dad and his younger siblings act some times and it's funny to watch!

Merry Christmas and I wish you all a Happy New Year!! ~ love Amy xx
