Starting Fresh

Hey everybody, thank you so much for the reviews, they really helped me.

I hope you like this chapter.

Enjoy.


Meredith and Mark were walking together towards the elevator.

They had a patient with 3rd degree burns, and needed a skin graft, so they needed to get him into the OR.

The elevator doors opened, and they both walked in. They were the only people in there.

"Stop staring at me" Meredith said.

"I'm not staring at you" Mark said with a smirk.

"Yes you are" Meredith said.

"How do you know?" Mark said, still with a smirk.

"I can see that you're staring at me" Meredith said.

"Oh, so you're staring at me too" Mark said, while his smirk grew even bigger.

"No, no I'm not"

"Ah, come on, you don't have to lie"

"I'm not lying. I'm not staring at you. YOU are staring at me"

"Okay fine, I'm staring at you, but we both know that you are staring at me too"

"Am not"

"Are too"

"Not"

"You know this whole angry thing is kind of turning me on" Mark said, now with a smile from ear to ear.

"You are such a perv sometimes" Meredith said, now with a little smile herself.

"Yeah, but you know you love it"

"That I do" Meredith said, and leaned up to give him a small kiss.

The kiss deepened as Mark put his arms around Meredith's waist, and Meredith put her arms around Marks neck.

They broke apart when they both needed air.

"When are you off tonight?" Mark asked.

"Around seven, what about you?"

"I get off at 7.30. How about I'll meet you at in the lobby at around 8?" Mark asked, just before the doors opened.

"Sure" Meredith said, and started walking out of the elevator, with Mark right behind her.

Meanwhile Derek was in the scrub room, ready to scrub in on the surgery with Cristina. He was still in his own thoughts about Meredith and Mark, when he heard someone walk out of the OR, and in to the scrub room he was in.

"Hi Derek, I had such a great time last night" Rose said.

Derek looked at Rose, and noticed how different she was then Meredith. He was so caught up in his own thoughts he didn't even hear Rose speak again.

"Derek, Derek are you listening to me?" Rose asked, a little annoyed that he didn't pay attention to her.

"Huh, what" Derek said, as he snapped out of his thoughts. He quickly realized what was going on, and said, "Oh, sorry. What were you saying?"

"I just said that I had a great time last night, did you have great night too?" Rose asked in a desperate voice. She tried her best not to be desperate, but she really wanted him to have a great time with her, so he could realize that SHE was the love of his life. Well at least she thought that she could be the love of his life.

"Uh, sure" Derek said, not really paying attention to her.

"So, when are we going out again?"

"Uh, I don't know" Derek said.

"How about tonight" Rose said quickly, in a more desperate voice then before.

"I uh, I…" Before Derek could say anymore, Cristina who stood in the doorframe between the OR and the scrub room said, "Dr. Shepherd, she's crashing"

Derek looked towards Cristina, and then to the OR, before he quickly ran in. He got a surgical gown on, and after that, surgical glows.

After 5 hours Derek and Cristina walked into the scrub room. The surgery had been successful, and Mrs. Johnson should have a full recovery.

Cristina could feel Derek's eyes on her, but she wouldn't talk to him, unless it was really needed. She just hoped that he wouldn't bother her if she ignored him.

"Look I now you probably won't talk to me, but I just want to know how she is" Derek said.

Cristina just kept scrubbing her hands, wishing and praying that he would just drop it.

When she realized that he wouldn't she took a deep breath before saying,

"You right I don't want to talk to you, and for the record, why do you even care how Meredith is? You broke up. You're dating the wired scrub nurse with freakishly big eyes, and teeth. She looks like horse with those big eyes, and big teeth"

And with that said, Cristina left the scrub room with a very stunned looking Derek.

I loved writing the part where Cristina trash talks Rose, because as you may have noticed, I don't like her. I think she is annoying as hell, and I am so glad that she isn't on the show anymore.

Anyway, I hope you liked this chapter.

Please don't forget to review.
