Mark woke 2 hours later to hear Meredith groaning, she did not recall where she was. Mark stroked her cheek, and shushed her. "its ok babe, just get some rest." he re-assured her, before giving her a light kiss. Meredith slowly closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.

Meredith awoke the next day to find herself in a hospital room. Marks head rested on her bed. Meredith pulled her hand out of his and lightly ran her fingers through his hair.

Mark grumbled quietly in his sleep and she tickled the side of his face. Mark stirred and Meredith giggled. This was music to his ears and he opened his eyes slowly, not knowing if he was dreaming, "Hey sleepy head." she giggled.

"Hey" he grumbled sitting up and wiping the sleep from his eyes.

Meredith smiled at him. She saw the awareness click on his face. "Baby... oh good morning" Mark moved up equal with her head and kissed her softly.

"Now that was the good morning I was hoping for." she said with a smile.

Mark ran his hand over her face, and kissed her one more time. This time with more passion. He only pulled away so he could come up for 

air.

"Hey Markie guess what." she asked him. She could have continued but she wanted to make sure she had his full attention.

"What?" he asked with a smirk.

"Look" she told him, pointing down at her feet. Where she moved her feet then wriggled her toes. He looked back at her face. They both had big cheesy grins. Meredith shuffled over, making room for him on the bed.

Mark climbed on to the bed, pulling Meredith into him. "I love you so much loan." he told her before he kissed her softly, deepening the kiss. Thrusting his tongue inside, caressing hers like it may be the last time. There was a hunger, neither of them had known before.

Meredith's hand ran through his hair, as his hand wandered under the blanket and to the hem of her hospital gown. She moaned his name. His hand wandered up her leg and she giggled.

He pulled away and looked down at her. "What" he asked, somewhat concerned, somewhat curious.

"It tickles." she giggled, "more than it has in 3 years." she finished as he dipped down and kissed her again. His hand lingering on her hip before running over her stomach, and he left it there caressing it before slowly lowering his hand to her panties. "Mmmm" she moaned.



They were caught up in their love and his touch on her skin that they hadn't heard the door open.

"Hell no." Bailey exclaimed as she entered the room followed by Meredith's fellow interns. At first she blushed and then she giggled.

Mark refused to move, not wanting his peers to see his obvious arousal over his wife. "Must be the drugs." he commented, and Meredith giggled again.

At that moment Derek walked in. "Mark, get the hell away from my patient." he exclaimed, and in seeing the uncomfortable look on Marks face he followed through. "It appears you are going to need a cold shower." he quipped before tossing Mark the jacket he had left hanging on the back of his chair.

Meredith giggled again, highly amused by the situation. "At least it wasn't mum again."

Mark groaned.

"Or worse, it could have been Dad." She laughed more openly this time, causing everybody else to chuckle.

Mark made to sit up.

"Did someone mention my name?" Richard asked, as he walked into the room.



This caused Derek to raise his eyebrows, his laughter noticeable in his eyes. Mark jumped off the bed, using the jacket to cover his arousal. "Oh good chief, I was just going to duck of and have a shower." Mark quickly excused himself before running out of the room.

Meredith giggled. "Hey daddy," she said playfully, as Richard lent down and kissed her on her forehead. "Look what I can do." Again she wiggled her toes and moved her feet.

"That's excellent Mer" he commented with a big grin on his face.

"Yeah Mark and I were celebrating." she said with a giggle.

"Well that's good then." he told her as he moved a piece of hair out of her face. "Your mum was going to come down earlier, but she got pulled in on a perfed abdomen."

Meredith just smiled. "It's ok"

Bailey cleared her throat. "Who is presenting?" she asked, and Izzie stepped forward and rattled off the details.

Meredith giggled her whole way through it, and Bailey shook her head.

"So when do I get my new bike?" she asked looking all excited

Derek chuckled, knowing that it wasn't actually a bike but was her happy way of referring to her new device for her disability.



The interns looked stunned.

"You're actually going to ride a bike?" Christina asked the over excited Meredith.

"Don't be silly," Meredith laughed. "I've never owned a bike , let alone rode one." She couldn't help but giggle, "I'm talking about my crippled machine that will keep me operating."

Derek spluttered at hearing her words, she was so honest sometimes that it scared him.

"Oh" was the only response she got from the other interns.

"It will be here soon sweetie." Richard told her, he too was shocked by her honesty.

"Thank you Daddy." she said looking thrilled.

Derek looked around the room. "Right then" he pulled the attention back to the medical side of things.

"Mer, you need to rest. Stevens can you check on her regularly." Izzie nodded, and Bailey and the group walked out of the room, followed soon after by Richard.

"You have no idea how much it helps that I'm on drugs right now." she giggled at Derek.



Derek just smirked at Meredith before shaking his head. "No letting Mark mount you just yet." he quipped.

Meredith laughed. "You'er no fun Der. My senses are alive." she giggled. "I can feel completely."

"That's good Mer" he said, kissing her on the forehead. "But you need to get some sleep.

Meredith giggled as he turned and left.

It didn't take long for her to be in a peaceful sleep.
