So, I've been basically going crazy from studying for final next week ): But, I give up for tonight (:
"Izzie!" Meredith yelled.
"Shut up," She groaned and pulled a pillow over her head. "I hate Mark. A lot."
Meredith laughed. "Come on." Izzie slowly sat up and let out a sigh. "So, still think Alex is hot?"
"Yes," Izzie nodded. "Very."
"Hmm," Meredith said. "Derek and Mark are waiting for you downstairs," She frowned.
"Boo," She pulled on her shoes and ran a brush through her hair.
"I know." They both headed downstairs and into the living room. "Do you guys have to go?"
"Unfortunately," Derek wrapped his arms around his girlfriend and held her tight. After delaying for another twenty minutes, the four teenagers headed outside to mark's car.
"So, call me when you get home, okay?" Meredith looked up at Derek.
"I will, don't worry," He leaned down and gently kissed her on the lips. "I love you, baby."
"I love you," She said goodbye to her friends, before walking back into her house. She headed into the kitchen to stuff her face with some sort of comfort food.
"Hey." Nicole walked inside and sat at the kitchen table. "Come talk for a minute."
Meredith grabbed a gallon of ice cream and then two spoons before sitting across from her Aunt. "Is this about last night?"
"Yes," She grabbed a spoon. "So, I think we both know what was going on last night."
Meredith shoved the strawberry ice cream into her mouth. Maybe because she was hungry, but mostly because she didn't really know what to say. She didn't want to deny it, but she didn't want to admit it to her, either.
"You're seventeen, Meredith," She continued. "Trust me, I understand that it's 'not the eighties anymore'." Nicole said as Meredith smiled. "I want to be your friend, but I have to be your guardian first."
"I understand." She nodded.
"I know health class in high school probably says this almost everyday, but… you don't want to get pregnant at seventeen. Your smart and you have your whole life ahead of you."
"I know," She nodded.
"Have you talked to Derek about what would happen if you did become pregnant?" Nicole asked her.
"…No. I never really thought about talking to him about that… in detail." She pushed the hair out of her face. "Maybe we should talk about it."
"I think that would be a good idea." Nicole nodded. "I can tell you not to be sexually active, but you're still going to make your own decision."
Meredith let out a sigh. "I don't know. I think I need to talk to Derek about everything."
"I think that's a good idea."
"Oh," Meredith sat up. "Derek's Mom invited me over for dinner on Monday night. Is it okay if I go? Since there's no school on Tuesday."
"Yeah," Nicole nodded. "I think that would be okay. Just… remember what we talked about okay?"
"I will."

"You're an ass, by the way." Meredith sat down across from Alex the next day.
Alex shrugged. "Did you really expect anything else from me?"
"I hoped?" Meredith shook her head, but then laughed. "So, what did you think of Izzie?"
"The blonde? She's pretty hot, I guess." Alex said. "Why?"
"Oh, nothing," She smiled.
"Great, you're planning something, aren't you?"
"What are you talking about, crazy?" Meredith laughed and continued to work on the project they had to get done.
"I hate you."
"Likewise." She shrugged.
