My life as a dirty mistress Chap. 3:The Morning After

Well I am glad with the outcome of reviews I got. This is the third chapter and it tells about what happened after Mark took Meredith home… she wakes up in his arms… what is his reaction? Her's? Derek's? Well here it is. Please R&R.

Meredith woke up, she could barely see and the room she was in did not look familiar at all. Looking over at the person beside her she flinched…none other than Mark, her ex-boyfriend's best friend. She was screwed…literally.

"Hey beautiful." He said noticing the look on her face, distressed. "Use your words, Mer."

"We…had sex?" She questioned.

"Hell yes. The best sex ever." He said with a grin.

"Did you use a condom?"

"Take a chill pill mer. I did." He said pointing to the open package on the ground.

"Good." She collapsed back into bed. He rolled over and looked at her.'

"Meredith?"

"Yeah, Mark?" she asked with her eyes shut.

"What does this mean?"

"Meredith, what does this mean?" Derek said giving her an intense look through the silence as Callie walked in.

"The sex?" She asked knowing it was stupid but she needed more time to think. She couldn't love Mark could she? She definitely felt like she did. What did she have to loose? He was good looking, had close ties to Derek [make him jealous. Sure worked for Addison, and he liked sex. The perfect fling.

"Yeah…what did you think?"

"It means you have a choice to make… Cause we could do this. Make this work. Make us work. For awhile I mean." She said shrugging.

"I like the way you think." He said pouncing her back onto the bed as she giggled. She felt bad that he was so into this because it was just a fling, right?

"We better get ready to go to work."

"Crap! I don't have a shirt to wear." She said holding up the t-shirt she had worn last night. It had a large rip down the front from her and Mark's night.

"Take this." He said handing her one of his shirts.

"Its too big." She whined.

"Well do prefer too big or your boobs hanging out. I wouldn't mind either way but whatever makes you more comfortable."

"Funny Mark." She said pulling on her clothes and grabbing the coffee he handed her.

"You ready to see a very pissy Derek."

"I've been waiting too long already."

"Ok then let's go." In about 10 minutes they were at the hospital and walking through the parking lot.

"Look." Mark said pointing to Derek who looked like someone had just killed his dog. He hadn't even seen Mark and Meredith yet. Meredith grabbed Mark's hand.

"Well, well, well someone's forward."

"Oh this is why I love you." She said kissing him lightly on the cheek. Turning back to Derek who slammed his car door and threw the keys down.

"Maybe he's mad because Rose has a penis instead of a vagina." Mark said grinning. Meredith laughed, she didn't remember ever being this happy with anyone… but this was just a fling… the perfect fling.

"Maybe. Or she gave him syph. She is a nurse ya know, that's pretty much all they are good at." Meredith said and Mark laughed with her, her hand still held in his. The laughing caused Derek to look at them. His already high temper made him very angry.

"Get your hands off her!" Derek said to Mark.

"Whoa, chill man. You two broke up remember? Your with what's her face now…"

"Rose…" Derek said impatiently.

"Yeah Derek you don't get to tell me who I date." She said knowing it was just a fling… or was it more? It felt like so much more.

Derek thought it himself. 'So they are dating, damn. It doesn't seem to bother her that im with Rose. Huh, that's weird, it bothers me. I thought she loved me, I still love her.' He couldn't stand here anymore so he walked away. After Mark and Meredith had gotten in the building Mark was going to walk to his locker room.

"Mark?"


"Yeah, Sweetheart?"

"Sweetheart?"

"Thought it would help piss Derek off…"

"Well you can keep doing it just not to piss Derek off."

"Well alright, what is it that you want?"


"Can you walk me to my locker room?"

"Sure…" he paused for a moment. "Sugar muffin." Derek paused when he heard this. Meredith never let him call her nicknames. Not even, hun.

"Sugar muffin? 5 seconds ago it was sweetheart. Now its sugar muffin…"

"Well I just thought I would be calling you sugar and muffin so why not start with both."

"Well just walk me to my damn locker room so im not late for rounds, my interns think im horrible."

"Except O'Malley. He knows so." Mark said kidding.

"Haha very funny." She said playfully slapping him.


"Well I guess this is where we part ways." He said grinning.

"I guess so, McSteamy."

"So I get a nickname?"

"Correction…McName." George said walking past awkwardly.

"Yeah anyways bye." She said hugging him as he turned and walked away.

"What the hell was that Meredith?" Cristina asked.

"What was what?"

"The nicknames and the PDA with Sloan?"

"McNames." George corrected again.

"Whatever bambi. Wait what the hell is bambi doing here?"


"I have permission. I have the best resident ever." George said pointing to George.

"No George I am the best resident." Cristina argued.

"Whatever you say Cristina."


"Dr. Yang." Cristina corrected.

"Right."

"Well I will see you out there in twenty minutes, Meredith." George said to her. She simply nodded and ran into the restroom, she had just gotten sick.

"Meredith are you pregnant?" Meredith puked again and chanted. 'I can't be pregnant.' If she was what the hell was she going to do? He had used a condom. This was just great!

Well there is chapter 3. The next chapter is called "What have I done to deserve this?" Please read and review and I will have the next chapter out by 9 o'clock at night tomorrow!
