Oh no, she did not!

That was the first coherent thought that shot through her aching head the following day as she faced the déjà-vu when she woke up in her bed. She stared at the manly figure lying next to her equally naked and supported her heavy, hung-over head. She let her eyes travel back to the stranger in her bed laying in a similar position her previous one night stand had been in except this time there were black, messy curls straying into all directions.

Realising she was going to be late for her rehearsal, she repeated her "poking" ritual to wake him up.

Yet unlike her last one night stand, this stranger woke up after her first three relatively gentle pokes.

"Ugh", he groaned and rolled over and blinked a few times.

"Heey!", Meredith said with an angelic fake smile on her face. "So, I'm late for rehearsal aand… so I'm gonna go take a shower and when I get back you won't be here anymore so…" and with that she turned with her crisp white blanket covering her naked self to walk towards the bathroom.

"Wait, you're kicking me out?!" She groaned. What is it with guys in New York? In Seattle, she never had a problem with kicking out guys in the morning yet somehow here the one night stands she chose seemed to be quite daft.

She stopped in her tracks and turned around to face him. God, he's hot. I'd totally turn him into a multi-night-stand if he weren't so crackbrained… Not knowing what to say she simply let out "Uhm…yeah?"

"Sorry", he chuckled and put on his boxers, "I've just never done this before…"

What? He's never done this before? As in…"What?! You've never had sex before?!", she let out incredulously. She kept a distance to her one night stands. Doesn't mean she didn't care if she by mistake just took his virginity…

Wait! That couldn't be! Because she remembered quite exactly that he was a god in bed. So not possible for first timers.

"No!", her one night stand quickly assured her and buttoned his shirt. "I mean, this one night stand thing it's just…", he paused and looked at her. "You know what, we don't have to do that thing. It's obvious you're waiting to get rid of me so…bye Meredith.", he said and offered her his hand.

"Bye…uhm…" Shit. Note for the future, leave a note and get a shower. Better yet, stop having one night stands!

"Derek…" he provided her his first name in a tone that told her she was supposed to offer the last name. How the hell was she supposed to know his last name if she didn't even know his first name for fuck's sake! "Come on, you're kidding, right? Is this some sort of a joke?"

"Uhm… what?" so what if she didn't know his last name! He doesn't know her last name either!

"…Shepherd", her one night stand finished and repeated again. "Derek Shepherd."

Was that supposed to ring a bell? Derek Shepherd. Never heard of it…although…

"McDreamy?", he offered, still trying to trigger something in her. Seriously, what did he expect? New York was shit for one night stands. And what's that kind of a clue? McDreamy?!

"Sorry, look I really need to get going.", Meredith explained and retreated slowly to the bathroom not before turning back one last time "But…uhm…if it's any consolation, Derek Shepherd, McDreamy, you are awesome in bed and…uhm I had a great time last night…sooo…Bye, Derek.", she finished and closed the door not before shouting a "Have a nice life!"


"Ugh, I swear! Meredith ought to stop having one night stands. Or at least put some dampers to the headboard.", an annoyed Asian girl grunted while sipping at her coffee.

"Yeah", a blonde girl sitting opposite of her making French toast replied. "You'd think she's left her "Dark'n'Twisty" place by now. I mean, it's been over two months now."

"She's definitely not in her "Dark'n'Twisty" place. Don't think it's about Jake anymore, more like testing boy toys in the new town. I mean, we used to do that when we first arrived.", the Asian girl replied, not seeming to care too much while her blonde friends just sighed.

"Oh hey! Did you watch "Complications" last night?", the blonde asked enthusiastically. When her Asian friend didn't reply she started to blabber about her favourite TV show. "Derek Shepherd had a guest appearance last night as a patient and the nurses McNicknamed him to "McDreamy"! I mean, how fitting is that? God, he's so hot. He might be on for a couple of episodes. And apparently he still lives here when he's not filming, you think there's a chance we might meet him? Like at Starbucks? Or you think he's more into places like where we hang out like at "Joe's"?"

"Look, Iz", the Asian girl replied still her annoyed self, "I don't give a shit about "Complications" or whoever that Duke Shannon is or wherever he hangs out. What I do care about is Meredith and that she's going to be late for rehearsal if her one-night-stand hasn't run through the house door in…", she said and checked her watch

"five…four…three…two…"

Just before his time expired, the two girls heard a loud thud in the hall, followed by a row of cursing. Curiously, they tilted their chairs to see just who their friend had been keeping company in bed last night, yet all they could see was a head full of dark hair slamming the front door shut. Disappointedly they sat back and counted another 15 seconds until they heard their roommate running down the stairs, cursing as well.

"I'm so late!", she yelled frustrated and grabbed the thermo flask from the Asian girl's hands. "Shit, I'm so screwed!"

"We know.", her roommates replied in unison.

Grabbing the French toast out of the blonde's hand and taking a quick bite she ran out of the house, slamming the door shut without another word to her friends.

"She really needs to stop those one night stands. If not forever, at least temporarily especially now that she's been kinda promoted.", the Asian girl said long after she left the house.

"Word.", the blonde agreed. She was about to add something when suddenly the front door burst open again.

"Forgot the car keys!", the stressed girl explained and quickly added before she slammed the door shut again: "By the way, who the hell is "Derek Shepherd"?!"

"…"

"Oh she did not just…"

"Oh she so did.", the Asian girl smirked in confirmation.


I know, I'm super late for this update! The thing is that I couldn't find several parts of this chapter 'cause they weirdly were scattered all over the place...

Anyhoo, a short update, trying to reconstruct the rest of the chapters I've already written although you'll have to wait for at least another week since I'm going to be out of town next week!

Please do review, they help a lot and keep me motivated!

Love, Lexie
