She pushed the door open and stepped into the house. She laid down her bag and slipped off her shoes before walking further into the living room. She smiled to herself when she found Alex asleep on the couch with the TV on. After staring at him for a good five minutes, she leaned down and kissed his cheek before walking into the kitchen.
She looked through all the cabinets to find something to eat. There was nothing except the baked goods that Izzie made. She sighed and looked around for the phone. She ordered some pizza and walked back into the living room. The remote sat on the floor, so she leaned down and clicked it off tossing it back on the chair as she walked towards the steps.
She changed into her pajamas, a pair of sweats and a cami, and her hair up in a messy pony tail. She headed back downstairs to see Alex waking up. His arm was up in the air as he stretched. His back was arched and he let out a groan before falling back into the normal position. He still hadn't opened his eyes or noticed Meredith was home.
"Stupid couch," He muttered to himself as she walked over. Her eyes never left his closed ones. He adjusted himself on the couch. She leaned over and kissed him lightly on the lips. He jumped in surprise and his eyes opened quickly. Once he realized that it was Meredith, he kissed her back lifting his hand and tangling it in her hair.
She broke the kiss in a couple moments. "Hey Sleepyhead," She said quietly.
"Hey," He yawned and sat up so she could sit down too. She sat down beside him and leaned into his. He wrapped his arm around her and rested his hand on her stomach.
"How was your day?" Meredith asked.
"I was dying of boredom," Alex said. "I HAVE to call the Chief tomorrow."
"Alex, you just got out of a coma," Meredith said raising an eyebrow.
"I'm not in a coma anymore. I'm fine…. How was your day?"
"Fine… long but fine. Oh I ordered pizza"
"Thanks"
