The semester had kicked off and we were all in
our first class for the semester "foundations of clinical medicine" sounded easy enough. We had been studying for several hours and we all seemed getting exhausted.
"Oh my goooood" mark said slamming his textbook.
"Mark…" Addison warned.
"No! I...this is so much, this chapter is literally everything we learned in college. Everything. What's after this? Everything was useless" he raged.
"Mark, calm down" I said slightly annoyed.
"We'll take a break, if I have to look at one more picture of a petri dish, I'm dropping out anyways" Addison said slamming her own books.
"Thank god, this is why I love you Addie" Mark sighed.
"You wanna talk about the girl from the party that you're keeping a secret?" Addison asked, deciding to change the subject.
"I really don't" they had asked me a few times. I wasn't a party guy, I've slept with two girls my whole life. Once after graduation in high school and once with a girlfriend in college.
"Oh come on, what's she at least look like?" Mark questioned.
"She's pretty, a little young but-"
"Addie stop." I warned.
"Okay okay" she smiled.
"God man, why is this such a sore subject?"
I didn't have much to say, I didn't really know anything about her, Not even her name. Even if I did, I wouldn't say anything, that's what they want. It's just annoying and insulting.
"We should do something tonight, all we've been doing is sitting in this room studying for the past three days"
"No more college parties" Addison ordered "unless you want to, der. Maybe you could see blonde again"
"Hah so she's blonde? Nice"
"She's not blonde. She's like honey brunette….maybe light chocolate, hmmm which is funny because she smelled a little like chocolate and flowers hah and tequila but that's…. I have laundry to do" I said grabbing my bag.
"Aye well when you get back, we'll go out somewhere" Mark called as I walled out.
"What the hell?" Mark laughed staring at Addison.

"This week has been hell" Cristina groaned, throwing her bag on the ground.
Our school has us move into our dorms a week early and then we have a week of boring meetings and seminars.
"I know! I thought college was supposed to be fun" Izzie pouted.
"Better than being with my mother so I can't complain too much" Cristina said laying back.
"Yeah" Izzie nodded.
"Yeah…." I mumbled. Just then there was a knock at our door, we looked around for a few seconds before realizing none of us was willing to open it.
"Fine" Izzie roared hopping up to get the door.
"Hi! Um I...are you Meredith? Sorry...I'm just...I have been trying to find her and I can't seem….are you Meredith Grey?" A young girl with dark curly hair tied back in a ponytail asked.
"Mer it's for you" Izzie said as I looked up.
"You're Meredith?" She asked awkwardly. She was pretty, definitely young. Probably 14 or 15.
"Yes." I said confused.
"Hi! I've been looking for you. My mom...she said you were here too and I just thought….I thought this is my chance."
"I'm sorry, who are you?" Cristina sassed.
"I'm Maggie….I...we're sisters...I think...my mother...your mother. I think we're sisters. You're mother is Ellis Grey right?" She stammered.
"I'm an only child" I said shaking my head.
"Wait your mother is Ellis Grey?" Cristina screamed.
"Oh god…" i rolled my eyes. "Look I think you're confused, kid" I said running my hands through my hair.
"No I….my mother my adoptive mother helped me find her. I did some reasearch at the library and they said she had a daughter and that you still lived in Boston so I just...I just wanted to see you." I scoffed, I know it was rude but she was lying...so obviously lying.
"Look Megan I don't know who told you this but, you're not my sister. You're what 13? I would know if my mother was pregnant."
"I'm telling you, Look" the girl said handing over papers she had been holding close to her chest the whole conversation.
I read through the papers quickly before pushing them back at her.
"I don't care, You could have easily written this up" I scolded.
"But I didn't, please believe me. I….do you know where our mom is? What about my father? I….I assault we have different fathers. Richard Webber? Do you know him?"
"Get out of my room." I scowled.
"Please"
"Just...I need to think" I seethed.
"Okay wel...I'll see you around campus I guess."
The girl said before turning and walking down the hall with her head low
"Wow" Izzie said
"Family drama?" Cristina asked.
"I don't understand…"
"You've got a sister?" Izzie said excitedly.
"I'm an only child" shouted.
"Okaaaay"
"Whatever it's over now. I-I need to be drunk" i said standing up.
"Where are you going?" Izzie questioned.
"I-somewhere with tequila."
"Well I'm not taking care of her alcoholic meltdown later"

I loaded my clothes into the dryer..
45 minutes.
45 minutes to do what I wanted.
There was a Chinese place, a library and a bar.
It was her, the girl from the party. Her hair was messy and she was wearing a large jean jacket that hid her whole body, she was drenched from the Boston rain but...it was her and she was heading to the bar.
"Hi" I said walking over to her. Her head snapped around to me before she turned back around.
"Hi…." she stormed. Ahead while I held my jacket over her head.
"Bar?" I asked
"I need to drink" she muttered.
"This a habit or yours then?" I smirked.
"Might become one" she taunted.
"Well why don't I buy you the first one, on me" she glared at me, hah even mad she looks mind blowing.
"I can get my own drinks"
"Hah, that's what you said before"
"And I got them...a lot of them, remember?"
"I do" I smiled as we entered the bar.
"...shut up" she said sitting st the cushioned seat.
"So...can I get your name?"
"My name?" She asked flipping her head around.
"Mhm…I don't know i. Is it Mary? Miranda maybe?" I asked.
"Haha...close, how are you close?" She said shooting back a shot.
"That girl, she called you mer"
"Hm" she nodded turning away.
"So...no name?" I said sitting down next to her.
"Why were you here?"
"Laundry, I'm waiting for it to finish"
"Right"
"And you?"
"I told you, I need a drink"
"Ah"
—
"Derek's still not back and I'm gonna head out if he's not back soon" Addison said
"My dad is…."
"I know Addie…." Mark sighed
"He's still all…."
"Are you okay?" He asked softly.
"I'm fine I just…"
He stood up swiftly and wrapped his arms around her as tears pricked her eyes.
"Im sorry Addie" he mumbled. "I'm sorry about your mom"
"Yeah uh me too" she said pulling away and wiping her tears away. "And uh...thanks for….thank you, Mark"
"Anytime" he mumbled as she left.
—
"So...this was nice" the boy smiled at me.
I was still upset about the girl who showed up but at least he was nice.
"I um...should get going" I said smiling.
"Oh, okay...well um...maybe one more drink?"
"Hah okay...one more drink" I smiled, who cares? Nobody's waiting for me.
—
Everything happened fast. We were having a drink and then….it was all very fast.
I'm not complaining, I started it….maybe….I don't know….it was mutual but…
"We should get outta here" He muttered in between kisses.
"Yeah, You um…. you have laundry to...pick up…" I reminded. Breathlessly.
"Screw it" he smiled running his hands down my back.
"Mhm...I….warm laundry. It's important to me. I love warm laundry"
"Mhm" he continued.
"I'm uh...that's my only excuse" I muttered.
"Good" he smiled as he called over a cab.

Okay so I have a few ideas in my head of how I want things to go, nothing is set in stone yet though.
