DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN GREY'S ANATOMY, I wish I did.

BEEP BEEP BEEP... The alarm is blaring.

Oh it can't be 4:00am already. God, I fell right asleep, but I don't fee like I slept at all!

Meredith gets ready for work. She notices a note on the counter:

Mer-

I hope you have a great first day.

Knock them dead...Well maybe that's

not a great idea!!

Love,

John

She smiles. John was always like that, sweet. She grabs some coffee, eats an orange and some oatmeal. John had convinced her to start eating healthier. She used to jog every morning before the move. John didn't have to get up until much later. He doesn't have to meet the Senior partners at the new law firm until 10:00am. She hops in her Jeep, and takes the route that the cab driver took yesterday. She pulls into the lost next to and old white truck/suv similar to her Commander. She laughs at the car next hers, she just loved it. Her husband never understood that about her. She begins walking up to the hospital, and a blond girl walks up from behind her and introduces herself.

The Girl: Hi! I'm Izzie Stevens, I'm an intern. This is my first day. How about you?

Meredith: I'm Meredith Thompson, this is my first day too!

Izzie: I'm so excited, who is your Resident?

Meredith: Bailey, "The Nazi".

Izzie: Mine too, how awesome is that.

Meredith and Izzie continue the small talk until they arrive at the locker room, where the rest of the interns are. She likes Izzie, but she is almost too happy.

Izzie: Hi everyone! I'm Izzie, and this is Meredith, we are both with the Nazi.

George: I am George O'Malley, I've got the Nazi too.

Alex: I'm Alex Karev, I've got the Nazi.

Alex: Who are you, "Miss Friendly"? (He says to a girl who didn't look to friendly.)

Cristina: I'm Cristina Yang. I am here to learn, not to socialize. I've got Bailey.

Meredith liked her. Upfront, honest, and bitter. Just like herself. The interns meet Dr. Bailey who informs them of their tasks, and is well, a Nazi. The interns were going about their day busy as can be. Meredith was getting hungry and hoping she would be able to eat soon.

Bailey: Dr. Thompson!

Meredith: Yes, Dr. Bailey.

Bailey: Dr. Shepherd, our Neuro attending needs an intern. Go find him.

Meredith: OK

Meredith begins searching for Dr. Shepherd. She sees a man standing at the nurses station. He glances over. Their eyes lock. She feels like he is looking into her soul. He gave her a calm feeling, like nothing she had ever felt. Those blue eyes pulled her in like a magnet.

Shepherd: I'm Derek Shepherd. Are you my intern? (He looks into her eyes. She is beautiful. He feels like he has never felt before. Like she was his soul-mate.)

Meredith: Yes, I'm Dr. Thompson. (She can't stop looking into those eyes.)

Their connection is broken when they hear machines rapidly beeping.

Derek: That's our patient. (He explains what is going on as they run in the room. They begin helping the patient, who is coding.)

Nurse: He's stable now.

Derek: Good! Now Dr. Thompson, take him for a full work up and let me now when we get the results.

Meredith: Right away, Sir!

Derek meets up with is friend, and famous plastic surgeon, Mark in the hallway.

Mark: Hey, what's going on? You look distracted.

Derek: I think I just met my soul-mate.

Mark: WHAT? Are you OK? You the man who won't commit? Didn't you say there was "No woman for you."?

Derek: How did you feel when you met Addison?

Mark: Like I met my soul-mate...

Derek: OK then...

Mark: You want to grab a cup of coffee?

Derek: Sure.
