Meredith pulled away to see the look on George's face. They were both smiling and

this time George kissed her. Their kiss started to intensify as George pulled Meredith on the

bed with him. She started tugging at his shirt but he stopped her. "What's wrong?" "I just don't

want to rush things." "Okay George." Meredith got off of George and they went to sleep

wrapped up in eachothers arms.

The alarm went off at 5:00 and George woke up to see Meredith smiling at him, he

smiled back. "Good morning", she said and then gave him a quick kiss on the lips. "Good

morning to you too." They both got out of bed and ready for work without Izzie even knowing

there was anything going on. Once they were at work things were really hectic and they didn't

have much time to talk. When they finally got a break they went on top of the roof to talk. "So

Mer, would you like to have dinner with me tonight?" "I would love to." "I was hoping you

would say that."

That night at home Meredith was actually panicing she wanted to look good for

George. She didn't expect to get that nervous butterflies in the stomach feeling. George was

going to change at work and was going to be there soon and she still didn't know what to wear.

Izzie got home and Meredith called for her to help her get dressed. "Who are you getting all

dolled up for." "I have a date with George." "What!" "Yes, I have a date with George

O'Malley and he is going to be here soon." "Okay, where are the two of you going?" "Where

going to have dinner." "Go with the black dress and were your hair down." "Okay, how does

my makeup look?" "Good, now put your sparkling earrings on." George came home and

yelled out "Mer I'm here". "Go get your man" Izzie said with a smile. Meredith came down the

stairs and George smiled. She couldn't help but smile at him too. He had his hair combed to

the side and was wearing black slacks, a black blazer and a white dress shirt. Meredith thought

he looked very GQ. Meredith finally walked down to him. "You look very beautiful, but then

again you always do." "You don't look so bad yourself."

At the resturant they were having a good time and then Meredith got this sad look on

her face. "Mer, whats wrong?" "I'm sorry George it took me this long to actually notice you."

"Don't be sorry, you were dealing with a lot and you needed me to be there as a friend."

"You're a great guy George and I'm glad I didn't miss my chance with you." "Hey, cheer up"

George said and rubbed her cheek.

When they got home George walked Meredith to her room. "Thanks for dinner, I had

a great time." "You're welcome, I did too." George walked up to Meredith and gave her a

gentle kiss on the lips. "Goodnight." "Goodnight.

At work Izzie and Christina wanted details. "How long has this been going on" Izzie

asked. "Two days." "How's the sex" Christina wanted to know. "We haven't yet." Izzie and

Christina both looked surprised. "He said he wanted to take it slow." "How slow?" Izzie asked

Meredith just rolled her eyes.

It had been two weeks since George and Meredith got together. They were both

happy and everyone could tell. They had gone on dates and they kissed but nothing passed

that. They were both at home snuggled up on the couch watching a movie. George looked at

Meredith and kissed her. "What was that for?" "Just because." "Well don't let me stop you."

He kissed her again and it was getting more and more passionate. Meredith was laying on the

couch and George was on top of her. He broke the kiss and Meredith looked confused. "Did

I do something. Before she could finish her sentence George put his finger over her mouth. "I

was just going to ask if you wanted to take this upstairs." Meredith grinned and to her surprise

George picked her up and they went upstairs.
