Chapter 3
Meredith's POV:
Shit, I'm late. Why am I always late? I hear Bailey calling for me.
"Where's Grey? Blah, blah, blah"
I don't feel like dealing with her, with this, with anyone. Not that I have a choice. I quickly round the corner, "Sorry, I'm late Dr. Bailey." She just glares at me, big surprise.
"Now because Steven's isn't here, you four will have to pick up the slack. Assignment time: Karev, you are with Addison Shepard, Yang and O'Malley you two are in the pit, and Grey, Dr. Shepard has made a special request for you. Now get moving."
God damn him. I knew this was coming. I knew that ass would request me. He always tries to corner me. Force me to talk to him. Too bad my shower didn't clear my head at all. I am just as confused as ever and now I am being forced to work with Derek.
I really don't think I can stand hearing him ask me, 'What does this mean?' over and over again. Damn it Derek, I'm not the married one, why does it matter what it mean to me?
"Dr. Grey?"
I turn around to find who called my name.
"Dr. Grey", a nurse says again. "These flowers were just delivered for you."
What the hell. I was staring at twelve gorgeous roses. I quickly snatched the card:
"Mere, I will always be there for you."
Derek's POV:
I am so early. That's all I could think about when I walked into Seattle Grace Hospital. As soon as I finished my shower I practically ran out of the trailer. I had to get out of the poisonous atmosphere. I couldn't deal with Addison, until I talked to Mere. I had to know how she felt.
I walked into my office, put my stuff down, and sat in a chair. I closed my eyes and immediately saw Meredith. I saw us kissing…pulling off her black panties…I needed to find Bailey.
"Dr. Bailey, I want to request Dr. Grey today."
She turned and looked at me. I could tell she was suspicious and annoyed at the same time. "Well, even though I hate requests, I suppose you could have Dr. Grey for today." With that Bailey walked off.
I smiled, well smirked. That was one minor victory for me. Meredith would be working with me all day; she would have to talk to me.
Wow, that is a really beautiful bouquet of flowers. I wonder who they are for…
Finn's POV:
I really don't feel like working today. I really don't feel like doing anything. Unfortunately, that is not an option. I was booked all day. Maybe staying busy would be better, less time for my mind to wander.
I looked at the clock. Meredith would just be arriving at work. Unless she was late, which was always a possibility.
I was anxious. I wanted to know if she had seen the flowers. I wanted to know her reaction. I'm sure she loved them. I'm sure she thought that they were a sweet gesture. I hope.
Where is my cell phone? Maybe she called and left a message about the flowers. Ah ha, I flipped open the phone. Nope, no messages. Maybe she wasn't at work yet.
I looked at the clock for the second time in the last five minutes, 9:05. Thank God, there was an appointment at 9:15. I needed something to distract me. Even I couldn't take the raving lunatic I was becoming. Who knew I would get so paranoid over someone's reaction to something as simple as flowers.
