Air Supply song. Lol. I love Steph and Jen. And Derek's an asshole.
She's Got The Answer
Addison Shepherd awoke to her phone at 11:34 that night.
" Hello?" She asked groggily. I'm not popular enough to have people call me this late.
" Hey, it's me. Can you open the door?" A slightly fimilar voice said.
" Me? You're going to have to be a little less vague."
" It's Meredith."
" What are you doing calling me at 11:35?"
" I can't go home. Please just come and open the back door."
"Ok," Angrily, Addison tossed off her sheets, and got downstairs by the back door. Addison opened it and Meredith came inside.
" Did I wake you?"
" No." Addison lied. " Come on. I'll go find a blanket for the couch."
" Are you sure?"
" Yes. I'm sure." Addison said opening a hall closet and pulling out a blanket.
" Thanks." Meredith said sheepily.
" Um-hum." Addison replied. " Stay quiet and don't wake up my kid,"
" You got it,"
" Ok," Addison said turning to go back upstairs to her warm comfy bed. My warm comfy epmty bed.

" Rise and shine." Addison held a cup of coffee infront of Meredith's face in attempt to wake her up.
" How are you so happy at this hour?" Meredith said opening her eyes.
" It's only 4:40."
Meredith sat up and took the cup from Addison's hand, " What time did you get up?"
" 20 minutes ago."
" What?" Meredith rubbed her eyes.
" Yes," Addison smiled, " Come on, get up. Do you have clothes?"
" Uh. Yeah. I think. In the back of the car, maybe."
" Ok. Let's get ready to leave,"

" So, how much longer do you think that this weird limbo between you and George will continue?" Izzie asked Meredith later that day at lunch.
" There is not a weird limbo between me and George. That was me and McDreamy," Izzie looked at her taken aback.
" That's the first time I've heard you talk about him since..well you know."
" Really?" Meredith twirled her salad around with her fork.
" Yeah."
" Has it really been that long?"
" I guess." Izzie started to bite her apple. " But back to you and George."
" Nothing is going on. There is no weird limbo,"
" Does this mean you answered him?" Please tell me that she answered him.
" No,"
" Will you answer him?"
" Yes...Eventually,"
" Eventually? Is there some kind of time span on that eventually. Tomorrow? Next week? Next month?" GRR. Why does she have to be so...Meredith like?
" Right now, no."
" No to what? His question or your eventually time span?"
" My eventually time span. Must we call it that?"
" Yes, we must." Izzie laughed.

" Answers to important questions are always nice." Eric said
" Well wasn't that subtle?" Meredith asked.
" Well I try," Meredith let out a chuckle. "Seriously though, he's a mess.'
" I know," Meredith held her head low. Why does everyone have to keep rubbing this in? I already feel like crap.
" See, I don't think you do know. George allowed himself to be more vunerable than ever. And you know how George is, while you take pause, he's just keeps freaking out. All of us need you to make a decision, because this isn't fair to George. And how can anyone be unfair to George? He's George O'Malley! The giant marshmellow of Seattle Grace. You can't be mean to a marshmellow!" Eric said, walking back towards the peds floor.

Meredith tapped her head aganist the lockers in the resident's locker room. Why can't I just make a decision? Why? It shouldn't be this hard! Everyone who is always ranting about how this is the easiest decision of their life should really come and see me. Why? She slammed harder.
" Stop. You're going to cause an intercerebal bleed, and I wouldn't trust Sherwood with your brain." George laughed.
" Really?"
" Nope. The only person I would trust with your brain is Shepherd,"
" Me too." Meredith said while George sat down next to her.
" You want to talk about how you were just banging your head against the lockers?"
" I was just thinking about the morons of the world."
" Since when did Bailey rub off on you?" George said with a smile.
" Ha. Ha. You're hysterical,"
" Well, if you think so." An awkward silence graced the room," You didn't come home last night,"
" I left you a message,"
" Yes, you did. Are you just going to keep ignoring me now?"
" I'm not ignoring you," Mer protested.
" You didn't return any of my messages and you shacked out at Montgomery-Shepherd's last night, sure sounds like you're ignoring me."
" Well, I'm not," Meredith said.
" OK," George said, not believing a word. " Do you plan on sleeping at home tonight?"
" I don't know,"
" Do you plan on answering my question?" Please say yes. Please say yes.
Do I plan on answering his question? " Yes, I do,"
" Ok," George said trying not to jump out of his skin. " And do you plan on sharing your answer with me anytime soon?"
" Yes, I do,"
" Does that mean now?"
" Yes, It does." Meredith watched as George flaunted a huge smile and she laughed a little.
" Are you laughing at me?"
" No. Not at all,"
" Ok. Good," George said folding his arms and resting his head against the locker. Meredith did the same.
" Yes."
" Yes?" George said smiling.
" Yes," She nodded. And George grabbed her in and took her into a long, passionate kiss. To my happily ever after.
To Mer and George's happily ever after.
