Meredith sat, watching Aiden's operation. It was about 6 pm; it had lasted over 5 house, and still going. So many complications had been occuring, and she wasn't sure that he would be able to save his patient. She placed an M&M in her mouth as Cristina plopped down next to her. "Oh God, I hate him."

She laughed, putting another one in her mouth, "I know you do, and I love it."

"Oh shut up," She grabbed the bag of candy out of her hands, downing the rest of the goodies.

"Excuse me! I was eating those!"

"Was."

"Oh! Your impossible!" She crossed her arm, leaning back into her chair.

"Hey guys!" Izzie exclaimed, sitting sown on the otherside of Meredith, her hands full of snacks.

"Hey Izz," Meredith said, almost not even turning her head to see her, just reaching over to grab some food.

"I hope he dies on the operating table." Cristina continued, also taking some food from Izzie.

"Cristina!" Izzie scolded.

"What? Would it be so bad for McCreepy to lose a patient every once in awhile?"

"McCreepy?"

"You know what Cristina?" Meredith budded in, "Your just jealous!" She said, waving her arms about for a second.

"Jealous? What could I possibly be jealous of?"

"Who is McCreepy?" Izzie asked, confused.

"You are just sour because you will never be as good of a surgeon as Aiden is!"

"Sour?"

"Yes! Sour. . ." She picked a bag of sour skittles out of Izzies arms and opened it, taking out a green skittle, "Here is you, a sour, envious little beast."

"Ok, so now I'm a skittle?"

"Yes! A skittle you are!"

Izzie only stared at them, dumbfounded, "Dr. Schaffer is McCreepy? Why?"

At this, both Meredith and Cristina stopped their little rant, they had both forgotten that Izzie didn't know about the relationship. Cristina smiled, Izzie was the biggest gossip in the whole hospital, "Oh yeah, McCreepy, thats Meredith's fuck buddy!"

"Cristina!!!" Meredith yelled at her, standing up.

"You and Schaffer did the nasty-nasty?" Izzie exclaimed.

"Izzie!" She yelled at her, luckily they were the only three in the room. She sat down again, next to her, covering Izzie's mouth, "This does not leave this room, understand?" She nodded in agreement, Meredith's hand still cupped on her mouth. "Good." She sat back in he seat right, elbowing Cristina as she laughed. Aiden looked up from his surgery, confused by what had happened. Meredith just smiled at him, hoping that he would ignore it; he did.

"Hey babes," Alex jumped in, sitting in the seat behind Meredith.

"Meredith and Dr. Schaffer are screwing each other!" Izzie told him.

"Izzie!" Meredith yelled, "What did I tell you?"

"We are in the room, are we not? It hasn't left!"

"Wow, Grey!" Alex punched her back lightly, "Is he any good?"

"Shut up, just shut up, I don't have to listen to this!" The entire time Cristina was laughing so hard, she couldn't even speak.

"Is who any good?" George chimed in, carrying snacks as well.

"Schaffer and Grey." ALex pointed at Meredith as he stole some goodies from George.

"Seriously?" He asked, shoving a donut into his mouth.

Meredith just places her head in her hand, mumbling short sentences to herself. Looking up, she saw that the surgery was over; a success. Aiden removed his scrub cap, pointing to the door as he looked at Meredith. "Oooohhhhh, a lovers quarrel!" Cristina stopped to say before she began laughing again.

Meredith just sighed, hitting Cristina upside the head as she left the room.

Meredith ran down to meet Aiden after the surgery, "Hey whats up?" She asked as he scrubbed out. He had his cap off, laying next to the sink; drying off his hand, hekissed her nose lightly before running his fingers through his light broen hair, "Is somthing wrong babe?" Meredith questioned, more worridly.

"No, nothing at all," He smiled, reassuring her, picking up his cap, "I just wanted to see you, thats all."

She cocked her head, stretching her shoulders back and forth, taking in a deep breath, "I think something is up." Her hands were now placed snuggly against her chest, wrinkling her light blue scrubs.

"No," He reassured once more, taking steps closer to her. He placed his hands on her elbows, standing close to her. Leaning down, he put his nose on hers, "I was just thinking about last night." She smiled, remembering what happened all too well.

"That was fun wasn't it?" She took her small arm and wrapped them around his neck, pulling him closer as he nodded.

"It was." He confirmed, "I was just thinking how much I would love to do it again. Are you staying late tonight?"

"Just waiting on you!" Her warm body was still close to his. "Good." he whispered, grabbing her bottom lip with his own. They stayed in that spot for quite some time, allowing each other to deepen or lighten the kiss as they wished, which Meredith did many times to laugh. "Whats so funny?" He questioned, finally pulling away from her.

"Nothing, your just so cute." She said, giving him eskimo kisses. He laughed at her childish antics, pulling her up close so that her toes barely touched the ground.

"I think I love you, Meredith." The conersation suddenly took a serious turn once Aiden let this out. He lowered her to the ground every second that she didn't reply; soon, her feet were fully on the ground. She wasn't quite sure that she was ready to say it, not that she was still in love with Derek, more of she was afraid to be broken again. She looked up into his eyes, as tears began to form. Her cheeks were glowing red, and her voice was clearly cracking, "Aiden, don't hurt me, ok?" He was taken aback by her response, his eyes filled with sorrow and remorse.

"I never will, I promise," He said, taking her into his arms, holding her tightly as he kissed the top of her head.

"Thank you," She whispered.

--------------------------------------------------------------

The other four interns were now leaving the hospital together, laughing about who knows what. They were planning on heading across the street for some well needed drinks. Their hysterical laughter would cause anyone to think that they were already drunk, but tonight, tonight they were just having fun. Their fun was immediately interrupted by a ringing cell phone. "Whoohooo, thats me!" Izzie said enthusiasticaly as she giggled with the rest. Looking down at the ID, her laughing stopped abruptly, "Oh, sorry guys, I gotta go."

"What? What, no!!! You gotta come with us down to Joe's Izz, baby!" Alex shouted to her as they walked away.

"I'll try to meet you guys there, how about that?"

"Alright baby doll! See you then!" They continued their trot to Joe's without her.

"Hello?" Izzie asked as she picked up the phone.

"Izz, why didn't you pick up earlier?"

"Maybe because I was tired of your self pity and moping!" She exclaimed.

"Well, I'm sorry, but we need to talk."

Its almost here! I decided to shorten it up a bit, and soon, all will be revealed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
