Ok. I'm trying to reach a greater audiance here, so this chapter is a Mer centered. Don't my Addi friend leave me know, trust me, you want to read this chapter. And I'm sorry I messed with the song theme. And 3 days left guys. 3.
One Giant Game of Telephone
Addison stood outside of Seattle Grace Hospital early Sunday morning.
" Crappy day," Meredith said coming up behind her.
" Ahh maybe,"
" No, it's going to be a crappy day. I can feel it,"
With a knowing smile, Addison replied, " If you say so, Dr. Grey."
>>
" Ugh," Meredith said, throwing papers into files at the nurses station
" Something wrong, Dr. Grey?" Eric said, cup of coffee in hand.
" Dr. Newport." She said slightly starled," As a matter of fact, yes, these interns and their inability to file paperwork correctly. Ugh. I knew it,"
" Knew what?"
" That today would be a crappy day."
" Huh." Eric said with a smile toying on her face. " Oh, before I forget, Izzie was looking for you,"
" Umm..Ok,"
>>
" Hey, Iz." Meredith said seeing Izzie by the OR board.
" Oh, hey."
" Oh, Eric said you were looking for me,"
" Uhh, no. Addison's looking for you," Meredith stared, confused.
" Izzie, I just saw Addison."
" Yeah, well. I think she needs a babysitter or something."
" Oh, really?"' Meredith said with an eagerness to help.
" Yeah."
" Ok, well. Good luck," Meredith said, gesturing towards the board.
" Oh, yeah. You too." Oh, crap. Way to ruin it, Stevens.
" Huh?"
" I mean with finding Addison."
" Ok," Meredith said walking away confused.
" That was very close," Izzie whispered," Too close."
>>
Meredith's day wasn't getting any better. One of her patients was getting severly worse, and she was running around like crazy trying to find Addison. Finally, she had found her in the NICU, rocking a new born in the rocking chair.
" You, Miss. Montgomery-Shepherd, are one of the hardest women to find,"
" It's a gift really."
Meredith chuckled, " Izzie said you were looking for me. Something about a babysitter."
" No, I told her George was looking for you. He was wondering if you planned on cooking dinner,"
" Oh. Gosh, this is getting to be onegiant game of telephone." Meredith said, agravated. Addison had a huge smile planted on her face, " Do you know where I can find him?"
" Uh...the last time I saw him, he was just getting out of surgery. OR 2, I believe."
" Oh. Ok, thank you." Meredith turned with a smile.
Addison watched her walk away, still rocking the newborn to her chest. She's never going to forget today.
>>
Bill, I love you so, I always will
I look at you and see the passion eyes of May
Oh, but am I ever gonna see my wedding day
I was on your side Bill when you were loosin'
I never scheme or lie Bill, there's been no foolin'
But kisses and love won't carry me till you marry me Bill
"What?" Meredith asked herself hearing music coming from OR 2.
>>
" Hey, Addi. Finally." Eric whispered quietly as Addison came into the gallery.
" Did I miss anything?"
" No, thankfully." Izzie said smiling. " This is so exciting,"
Addison smiled at Eric, who had a panicked look on his face, " It will be a while before that's you. Take a breathe." She whispered quietly.
>>
I love you so, I always will
And though devotion rules my heart I take no bows
But Bill you're never gonna take those wedding vows
Oh, come on Bill
Oh, come on Bill
Come on and marry me Bill
I got the wedding bell blues
Please marry me Bill
I got the wedding bell blues
Marry me Bill
" Hello, anyone in here?" Meredith said quietly opening the OR doors. " Hello," Meredith flicked on the light. The OR was covered in dozens and dozens of orange Echantment Lilies, her favorite. "George." Meredith said breathless. George was standing in the middle of the OR, with a tux on.
'' OK, I know you're probably freaking out right now. But let's multiply that by about 100 and you've got me. And for the record, I know my name's not Bill and your names not Bill and you haven't been complaining about wedding bells, vows, and whatever else she was talking about. But that's really not the point, the point is Mer, when I'm aroud you I can't think straight, now being a prime example, and my heart does this weird fluttery thing were I think I might puke, but I never do."
Meredith laughed a bit, but stopped when George gave her that look. He cleared his throat before starting again, " When I'm with you the whole world floats away. Everything is so beautiful and pure and it's just me and you. And I'd rather have millions of awkward moments of heart fluttery pukeness, if it meant I got to spend them with you. And I can't live without you Mer. And after what's happened with Addi and Derek," George briefly paused to look at the supposedly empty gallery," I realized that we don't have much time, even when we think we do. So, will you marry me?"
Cliffhanger! What did everyone think? Was it completely obvious? Please, tell me. Please. Thanks so much to Jen, Steph, and Mel. Mel gets an special thanks for her editing remarks! Without these guys, I don't think much would get done on any chapter. lol. ANd now you know why I had to mess with the song theme.
