Meredith sneaked up to the guest room, where Carol's suitcase was in place. She slowly walked into the bathroom where she snatched her shampoo. As she sat down on the bathroom floor, she took out a purple dye bottle and poured it into the shampoo bottle. Suddenly, she heard the door creak open. She quickly put the shampoo bottle back and hurried down the stairs. She expected it to be Carol, but instead it was John.

"John? What are you doing here?"

"Well remember we had that tour of the city this morning? You kind of blew me off…I wanted to see if everything was alright."

She placed her hand on her head. "Oh my God, RIGHT! I'm sorry! My fiancé got in a car accident and…"

"He got in a car accident?! Is he okay?"

"Yeah, he's fine…but I'm so sorry I didn't call!"

"Hey, don't worry about it!"

"Well…we could go now if you want?"

"Really, I mean, is that okay with you?"

"Sure, let's go!"

She quickly grabbed her coat and walked out the door. On her way out, Carol stopped them. The smile on Meredith's face immediately disappeared.

Carol looked at John. "Why, John! Nice, to see you again! Now what are you doing with Meredith?"

John was about to speak when Meredith cut him off. "I'm showing him the city."

She raised an eye brow. "Oh well I bet that's not the only thing you're gonna be seeing…" She turned towards John. "Have fun." She then slammed the door on her way inside.

Meredith rolled her eyes. John laughed. "What was that about?!"

"She hates me!"

"Why?"

"Cause…she does!"

John smiled, then grabbed Meredith's hand. "Let's go…it'll help you get your mind off things!"

Meredith hesitated then sighed, "Alright…let's go."


Carol whipped out her cell phone and dialed Derek's room number.

"Hello?"

"Derek, it's your mother and I have something to tell you!"

"Mom, I was just sleeping and…"

"SHUSH! Meredith is off with some guy named John!"

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

"John is this very cute guy that she apparently knew in college. She said they were just friends, but she is definitely hiding something!"

"So they were friends! So what?! Come on, mom! Stop trying to break us up because it's not gonna happen!

Carol paced the room, the patted her chin with her index finger. She then blurted out, "I saw them kissing!"

The other line got silent. "What?"
