A/n: This is it! Thank you to each and every one of you who not only read this but especially to those of you who took the time to review. It really means a lot to me, so thank you. (*hug*) This is the last chapter/one-shot/drabble in this collection, but fear not, for someday there will be another collection. In the meantime, I am working on a potentially epic G/I fic, so keep your eyes peeled. Thanks again and enjoy!


Test

(Season 1-2)

He didn't know whether it was actually an argument or a playful debate, only that it had been going for quite some time. He could hear the noise of raised voices as he read the comics section of the newspaper and ate his cereal.

Eventually they came downstairs, talking now in low voices. He didn't pull himself away from his newspaper until they entered the kitchen and addressed him.

"George, we have a question for you." said Izzie at once.

"Okay?" he swiveled on the stool to face her and Meredith.

"Which is worse: kissing a girl and not telling her you like her, or not kissing her but telling her you do like her?"

He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked from Meredith to Izzie and back again, sure whatever answer he gave would get him in trouble with one or both of the girls before him. "Is this a trick question?"

"Just answer." Izzie prompted.

"Well," he began hesitantly, unsure which was the answer he should be giving. "If it was me… and I'm not answering for anyone but me right now… but… I think that if I'm not kissing her, but I, uh, I like her, then… I'm probably just taking it slow." He glanced at them nervously. "Kissing her, but not saying anything… um, sounds maybe a bit like… using her or maybe, um, maybe going too fast? Or something?"

Meredith seemed satisfied as she shot Izzie a rather triumphant smile. Izzie looked a bit irritated but ignored her and plowed on.

"Okay then, which is better for a guy to do with a girl? Being all cool and avoidy or being plain and honest?"

He shifted uneasily. "Look, is this a test?"

"Pick one."

He bit his lip then said, "Honest is better than avoidy."

This time Izzie looked smug while Meredith turned sulky.

"And which is more attractive: red or blue?"

"For what?" he asked. "For who?"

"Red or blue?" Meredith prodded impatiently.

"Um… blue, I guess?"

"Hah!" Izzie grinned and Meredith crossed her arms. The pair left the kitchen and headed back upstairs, continuing whatever they'd been arguing or talking about before.

More than a bit bewildered, with a sigh and a shake of his head, he resumed reading the comics and eating his cereal (which had grown unpleasantly soggy). He never found out what that had been all about nor what they were still arguing about. He figured he was probably better off not knowing anyway.


A/n: Thanks for reading and reviewing everyone! See you soon with something new. :)
