What is Meant to be, Will Be

Chapter 3

As we all looked at George we were schocked, pissed off, and most importantly, jealous. I had to work with my one night stand and he got to do a solo surgery. Perfect.

"He said me?"

George said. He had this cute little puppy dog look on his face. You could tell he was nervous and you could tell that we all were mad about it.

"Well at least I won't be the first 007."

Alex added.

Alex was with a different resident but seemed to like to but his nose into our buisness. He seemed like an ass and I wasn't about to talk to him. Yeah I could be an ass when I needed but he was just an ass all around.

"Why can't we be supportive? If that was you he might be supportive but all of you are just acting like asses!"

I was so sick of hearing them bitch and moan. I was having to look at the man that I met in a bar and hooked up with last night. He was beautiful, but something told me he wasn't on the market. Maybe it was the look in his eyes, or the way he flirted with me. All I knew was I was falling in love with him and that was the last thing I needed.

"Let's just congratulate him and get on with our lives."

I got up and walked away. I didn't want to deal with this, I just needed to move on, maybe this whole brain surgeon thing is getting to me. I can't get him out of my head, his perfect hair and pretty, no beautiful, blue eyes. All I could think about was staring into them. I wasn't even watching where I was going until I ran into someone.

"So we meet again."

He said smiling, and right then and there I knew who it was.

"Dr. Shepard can we please try to be professional? I mean I didn't know you worked here, let alone my boss, or I wouldn't have slept with you. So lets just, stop looking at me like that!"

"Like what?"

"Like you've seen me naked."

He just smiled and chuckled.

"How is our patient?"

As I filled him in on her status, we walked to her room, she was seizing! Dr. Shepard was brilliant, he knew exactly what to do. All I could think about was the way he kissed me last night. The way his lips fit to mine,

"Meredith can you get her up to CT?"

I snapped out of my daydream as soon as the words left his mouth,

"Yes of course Dr. Shepard."

And just like that he was stuck on my mind for the rest of the day.

*************************

Throughout the day I ran labs, ate some dinner, working a 48 hour shift gets boring at times so I took a half hour nap before I was paged 911 to Lyssa Smith's room. Dr. Shepard and Dr. Bailey were in there, Lyssa's left pupil had blown and they needed to get her into emergency surgery. I didn't know what to do so I just stood out of the way as the nurses prepped her and got her out of the room. This was crazy. Why was I here? I didn't have what it takes, and that's when my night took a turn for the worst.
