Alex ventured to Ellis's hospital room. He found Meredith curled up on the couch with Mattie and Bella. She was reading them a story. He couldn't help but smile at the sight in front of him.
Nick looked up from his chair. His laptop on the bed in front of him. "Hey"
Alex nodded, "How is Mom?"
Nick looked over at Ellis. "Still hasn't woken." Derek said they're waiting for her body to heal some more before pulling her out of the coma themselves."
Alex sighed.
Michelle walked back into the room followed by Lucy and Beth. "Hey stud" she said as their gazes met.
Alex shook his head.
"So what are you doing here?" Nick asked. "The elevator leave you wanting more?"
Meredith looked up curios to hear the response.
"I should have known one of you were responsible for that." Alex groaned.
"Well?" Nick asked.
Alex shook his head. "I don't kiss and tell, however, i was hoping to finalise our arrangements. I agreed to lunch with my girls before whisking Mer off for the evening." he informed them
Meredith was reluctant to move from the couch. "I finish work at 6 tonight, so can i pick you up from the hotel at 7?" he asked.
Meredith nodded.
"Dress
casual." he said with a smile.
Meredith sighed. She thought he would have been goig to go all out, but again this was Alex.
Alex smirked. "it will be a good night." he promised.
Meredith nodded. "Ok" she all but whispered.
"and lunch" he added. "I'm having in an hour. I'll come back to pick you up when i'm ready." he informed her.
Again Meredith nodded.
"Well i better get back to work. But i will see you then." he smiled.
They all said a 'see you later' before he took off.
