Chapter 21

Izzie's face lit up during an episode of CSI:Las Vagas. She realized how she's going to help Meredith catch McHusband!

"Meredith!" she squealed. Izzie wondered briefly was it wrong to want and help break up your friends marriage.

"Shhhh! Later," Meredith stared at the screen.

"Mer!" Izzie whined.

Flopping on the couch next to Meredith Izzie waved her hands in front of her face. Meredith just swatted her away and concentrated on the glowing screen of the TV. Izzie folded her arms not ready to give up. She grinned.

"I know how you can catch me and Scott and me in the 'act'," Izzie used her fingers to enforce the quotes.

Meredith's back stiffened. She turned her head sharply to Iz,"How?"

"Easy," her grin got wider,"I need your phone."

Meredith knitted her eyebrows together confused,"What?"

Izzie rolled her eyes getting tired of explaining to people,"Just give it to me!"

"Jesus Iz," Meredith handed her the phone.

Izzie took it looking through Mer's contacts,"Here we go," she found the number that she was looking for. Into her own phone she placed that number on her phone. She quickly discarded Mer's phone and started texting furiously.

"Done. All you've got to do is wait by the front of the hospital without him seeing you," Iz grabbed her coat and started to leave.

"Now?" Meredith wined indicating to the TV.

Izzie sighed,"Yes now," she grabbed Mer's arm and dragged her out the door.

"Hey," Izzie smiled. She was going to throw up, it felt so wrong. Wrong like walking in on your brother having sex wrong.

"Hey," he grunted.

In Mer's Car:

Meredith watched from afar unknowing what they were saying. She watched as Izzie flirted

outrageously and saw Scott fall for it. Meredith gagged. Then she saw Izzie's eyes for a second and she saw that she didn't want to do this at all.

Mer sighed. She shouldn't have pushed Iz in this. It was her business and her business only. Guilt flooded her body. Then anger and jealousy when she saw Scott was leading Izzie in his

car. Meredith started her own car and was ready to follow.

In Scott's Car:

"Izzie, you know I'm married," Scott was at the wheel barely paying any attention to the road.

"So," Izzie fidgeted nervously.

"You know that I'm married to Meredith right?" he said trying to push some information out of

her.

"Does that matter?" she gave him another flirtatious smile and that kept him quiet. She kept on twirling a piece of her blond hair.

This is not going to turn out right. It never turns out right... Izzie kept on repeating to herself.

Izzie walked into Scott's hotel room. He didn't waste any time at all. He leaped on Izzie pushing her on the bed. He kissed her hard.

At that moment Izzie realized she hadn't had sex for a long time. A really long time. The beast was reforming again willing to take any food it could get. So she kissed back. She kissed back with as much intensity and lust as Scott was. She wanted to hear him moan in pain.

Meredith pressed her ear on the door. She immediately hear grunts, moans, and the banging of the bed hitting the wall.

Oh, god, Meredith groaned. Its happening again. Except with a twist, her close friend, Izzie was the mistress. Izzie! Izzie for god's sake.

Oh no.

Meredith's eyes were wide. She realized that Izzie hadn't had sex for a while since Mark is on a business trip. Meredith remembered that she mentioned something about a hungry beast in the past. Beast. Hungry. Mer swallowed hard. The beast was Iz's sex cravings.

Oh no, oh no, oh no. Its happening again. He's cheating again. Its a lie, right? Its just a big fat lie that turned out to be true. This was not good. Not good at all.

Meredith slipped in the door key that she persuaded that clerk to give her. The light turned green and she swung open the door.

There they were. Izzie and Scott together in a bed, naked, fucking each other like animals. Meredith bit her lip.

"Izzie! How could you?" she tried to fight back the tears.

"Oh, like you didn't know," Izzie spat out bitterly.

Meredith tasted the sweet-sour taste of blood in her mouth from biting her lip so hard,"Iz! He's my husband!"

Izzie rolled her eyes,"Sure, okay. While you were fucking Dr.Shepard?"

Scott shook his head disappointed in his wife.

"HEY!" she screamed at Scott,"You have no judgment! NO JUDGMENT! Last time I checked you cheated first. You lied to me. I thought I was divorced but apparently I'm MARRIED AND NOW I FIND YOU CHEATING WITH IZZIE?!"

"You told me to!" Izzie pulled the white sheets over her body.

"What?!" Scott asked completely confused by the women talk,"You told her to seduce me?"

"Well I-" Meredith stuttered out.

"Yes," Izzie put in smugly,"She wanted to catch you cheating so she could divorce you."

"IZZIE!"

"What?" Iz glared at Meredith.

"Fine! Here! The divorce papers. Sign them and its done! For all these years it'll finally be DONE!" she threw the papers that she's been clutching on to the whole time,"Get your mistress to give it to me later," Meredith spat bitterly.

Mer slammed the door on her way out trying to save what's ever left of her dignity. She fell to

the floor crying. She couldn't help it. So what if she didn't love him anymore? It still hurt. He was still her husband, or ex-husband since he's going to sign the papers. She had an ex-husband, officially. It made her cry even more.

"Mer, where've you been?" Derek asked worried when she came in the door.

"No where," Mer turned her head so Derek couldn't see her face. Her face was stained with tears and eyes swollen red from crying.

"Come on Mer. Its one in the morning you had to be somewhere," Derek tried to wrap his arm around her but she kept avoiding getting close to him.

Meredith walked up the steps without another word. A lump started to form in her throat. All she wanted to do was stay home and cry. And she would do that. Tomorrow was her day off and no one else's. That means the whole house to herself.
