I bent over to help him pick it up. "I did take the Grey case. She is inside with Mark. He frightened her when we came here and she kicked him in the face, and that was with a gunshot wound."
The man looked impressed as we walked inside. "You know. Mark always had a way with the ladies. Let's go in so the big brute of the family doesn't get his ass kicked again." The man says laughing as she hands me some of the grocery bags to carry as we start heading for the house.
As we walk into the house we hear Mark yelling "Stop it! That hurts."
"Well do you want to keep that pretty little face pretty? Than let me do this. I went to medical school before I hit it big. I know what I am doing you big baby. It can't hurt that bad, stop being a sissy." Meredith says to him.
"Come here and let me break your nose and then you can tell me if it hurts till then leave me alone you devil woman. Go work your shady voodoo elsewhere." Mark tells her waving his hands in the air at her as Derek comes around the corner with the bags the other man following him close behind.
"I don't know man. With the way you are whining like a little girl I think she could take you." The man says putting the stuff on the counter and starting to put it away.
"Shut up or you won't eat baby bro. Did you get all the crap I wanted?" Mark asked as he pushed Meredith away from him and walked over to the counter with the bags on it.
"You're not cooking. You are fucking bleeding all over everything. I will cook. You and Alex just go fix your nose at the doctors in town since you won't let Meredith do it. Dinner will be done by the time you get back." I tell my little brothers as Alex picks up his and Mark's coat laughing.
"Let's go Marcia before she kicks your ass again. I guess you're not the pretty one anymore." Alex says walking towards the door.
"Stop teasing him Alex and just go before I turn her loose on you too." Derek shouts from the kitchen as Meredith is giggling from a stool around the center island.
"Marcia, Marcia, Marcia. Oh my nose. My beautiful perfect face is ruined." Alex says continuing to tease Mark.
"Oh that's it. I am done listening to your ass." Mark says tackling him on the living room carpet.
Meredith and I walked into the living room to see Alex and Mark wrestling on the living room floor. I sigh and walk back over to the island in the kitchen pulling the ingredients for dinner out and placing them on the counter.
"You are both acting like girls." Meredith voice floats down the hallway. A few moments later, I hear the front door open with Mark and Alex quickly shuffling through it. I hear the door shut and a car start driving off as Meredith reappears in the kitchen.
I smile hearing Meredith reenter the room and sit down on the stool at the island.
"So those were your brothers?" Meredith asks as I work on dinner.
"Yes, Mark is known as Sloan, Alex as Karev. They didn't want to fall into my shadow." I tell her smiling. "You know for someone that has the damsel in distress act down pretty good you sure know how to ruff people up pretty good." I said laughing.
"Oh shut up I know how to handle myself with rough housing and stuff. It's the guns and shooting, people dieing stuff I'm not so good at." She sighs... "So what's for dinner?"
"I guess it is looking like herb crusted halibut, mashed potatoes, green beans, and a salad." I said looking up at her. "Would you like to help?" I asked her.
"Sure, but I tend to be a disaster in the kitchen so don't leave me alone with anything ok?" She said sighing as she got up from the stool she was on. "So what do you want me to try to do?"
"Well why don't you come help me over here and we will get started?" I said as she walked over by me and leaned against the counter.
