Cookies & Quickies
Meredith Grey tries to bake chocolate cookies; Teddy Altman helps. OR: Two hot single ladies talk about losing the loves of their lives in tragic and heroic ways, about loving their children and about finding new love again. And after eating cookie batter off of each other's fingers, they decide to treat themselves with 'grown-up-time' before the kids get home. Subsequently, the two doctors discuss the new loves of their lives as they both try their hand at wing-womaning for the other.
Set in GA-S15-E05, "Everyday Angel". Meredith Grey/Teddy Altman. Eventual Meredith Grey/Addison Montgomery & Teddy Altman/Cristina Yang. MerAdd. Teddina. Rated M.
Chapter 1: Teddy Altman is Hiding. Correction: Teddy Altman WAS Hiding.
Teddy Altman is hiding.
In a city park.
In plain sight.
In Seattle, no less.
Sipping a coffee from her favorite coffee cart.
Watching the day go by for everyone.
Teddy is currently hiding. Still hiding.
From everyone, really, but mostly from Owen Hunt. And Amelia Shepherd. And Owen Hunt and Amelia Shepherd's children.
And also from Meredith Grey.
Because if there was one person who could really get under her skin right now, other than the participants of the aforementioned Love/Hate Triangle? Square? Pentagon?
That would be Meredith Grey.
(Even if, at the same time, Teddy Altman is sort of secretly physically attracted to her. In a sexual way.)
(Which she was never, ever going to ever mention to anyone, ever. Especially NOT to Meredith Grey herself. Right?)
Because, after Teddy had left abruptly for Germany years ago after the plane crash, and after Cristina left for Zurich after having divorced Owen Hunt (also after the plane crash, but not really because of it…)...
Well, let's just say that at some point Cristina had nominated Meredith to be 'there for Owen' in a friendly way that she couldn't after all of their Chief Hunt - Cardio Goddess - Falling from the Sky - Insurance Hospital Cash Renaming Thing - Hot and Cold - Owen cheating - Cristina not wanting his children - Maybe something about an abortion - all of that and more leading to their messed up makeup/breakup sex just until Cristina finally left…
And among Cristina's parting gifts to Meredith, the one that was currently burdening her the most was being in charge of Cristina's ex-husband's mental wellbeing.
Which is not an easy task as Owen had made a trans-continental-booty-call-to-Germany for Teddy, not too long ago while on a 24-hour ish separation period from Amelia Shepherd, his new wife/ex-wife that he still lives with (?), during which Owen had managed to impregnate Teddy Altman with a debatably adulterous love child which she is currently keeping hidden from everyone.
Except for the people, she told about her impending baby though, of course, for her own safety such as Dr. Maragret Pierce who is apparently Meredith's long-lost another sister, who happens to be, herself an adulterous love child. In Addition to being a cardiac savant which only makes Teddy want to hate her even more. And Casey Parker, a fellow military dude who swore to keep her secret safe but who the hell knows with interns being interns all these days.
And finally, this brings us back to Meredith.
Who has also just recently lost the love of her life, Derek Cristopher Shepherd, in a heroic and tragic death in a car crash on a way to meet the president. And This very strong and beautiful woman is still capable of raising babies and running a surgical department and consoling all of her mismatch of best friends and sisters and friends and her colleagues.
'Oh, what she couldn't do' Teddy Altman thinks to herself about Meredith Grey.
And people say that Teddy's brave because she fled NYC and the entire country when the love of her life died in the twin towers nearly twenty years ago to this day.
She wonders how Meredith can cope with it all, god she was a wreck when Henry Burton died and she was so much more of a wreck when Allison Robbin Brown exploded out of the sky right in front of her very eyes (and everyone else's) as she watched it all from a hospital television.
Teddy says that she loves Owen. And she does, she's sure she sort of does. He was her best friend back then, he helped her heal from all the grief. And he never asked who Allison 'really' was to her. Like he didn't think to know.
And so she never told him that Allison was much more than 'just a friend'. That she and Allison had the craziest and wildest and hottest sex of their entire lives together. For months. And they almost had each other more than that when Allison was brutally ripped from all of their lives.
And eventually, I guess Teddy confused Owen's caring for affection. And she confused her appreciation for Owen for love. And she became obsessed with Owen Hunt, even though she had known in her heart that no one else, especially not a boy like Owen Hunt, could ever rock her world and make her fall desperately in love with them the way that Allison Robbin Brown had.
She had fantasized about having him in her bed. He was Owen for Chrissakes, even Cristina Yang, her star student had bedded him for heck's sake.
(Teddy decided not to examine her deeper feelings for Cristina Yang right now because it had taken every ounce of her willpower not to say to that girl 'leave him, Yang, and run away with ME, instead.')
(Because from what she knew from asking Meredith one time is that Cristina didn't really do women, or at least she hadn't, then, to date.)
(And that Teddy had then told Meredith that even if she were the type who liked to 'flip' people and make them less than straight, that she had lines about screwing students, so Meredith could rest assured then and there that-)
(With her, Teddy, that no matter how jealous and angry she got with Owen when Cristina skipped HER pages to be branded by HIM, that Teddy would not 'go there with her bestie.')
(Not while Cristina was still her star cardiothoracic student, then, at least…)
And so now Teddy is thinking again about hot women.
(Like Cristina Yang, as per usual...and dare she even mention… Doctor Meredith Grey…)
And she thinks about how they could make her feel in bed.
And how she hasn't had sex since Owen.
And how he hadn't really satisfied her as she'd said.
So now Teddy is sitting on a park bench, sipping coffee while thinking in her head, all these naughty thoughts about having hot women touching her; all over her.
And she's trying to justify to herself that it's all these pregnancy hormones.
(But god is it all messing with Teddy Altman's head right about now.)
And speaking of the devil, as Teddy is roused from her fantasizing with a text message from none other than Doctor Meredith Grey.
(Jesus, this is going to be a long-ass day…)
So she opens up her phone and panics slightly when she sees the messages.
Teddy replies as quickly as she can but freaks out when they get to the end of their brief text-message conversation...
Text Message, 7:44, Location: Seattle
MEREDITH GREY TO TEDDY ALTMAN
MEREDITH
[Need to talk.]
[Urgent. Call me.]
TEDDY
[Time difference.]
[Stepping into a dinner.]
MEREDITH
[On the swings or the slide?]
And that sure makes Teddy turn around, startled, to know that Meredith Grey was currently stalking her in the immediate vicinity.
Correction:
Teddy Altman WAS hiding.
Teddy spies Meredith Grey now, sitting on an adjacent bench not even too far from her.
She's got on this gorgeous outfit, a white and black striped shirt that makes her look all tan.
She's smokin' with her makeup, though she doesn't need it even one little bit.
Her hair is golden and flowing in the wind as if she were a supermodel.
And she's smiling and waving at Teddy, now, and even in her panic, it is making Teddy's heart beat faster and faster, and makes her breath catch just a hitch...
(DAMN HORMONES! Teddy chides herself. How can you be this hot and bothered just by someone waving at you from another park bench? Teddy, you really do need to get laid!)
***** END OF CHAPTER OF ONE
Author's Notes, Part 2:
Yes, I realize that I have over ten unfinished fics right now, but I wanted to write something nice for Teddy and Meredith after Season 16, and there have been many comments on Reddit recently about how Meredith and Teddy hardly had any scenes together at all.
So here is a ship that no one asked for. They are not the endgame, as I already mentioned in the tags. This is just so pure fluff and FWB sex with a rather ridiculous premise because I thought it would be fun. And maybe you hate me for pairing them together.
Or maybe you don't. And maybe you actually liked it. Or at least some parts of it. And I'd like to hear your thoughts on all this either way. This one will apparently be a multi-chapter because I like to write and publish things in waves. Let me know if you want more. I'll try.
Yours, Truly,
Love, bobbiejelly
