-Mer , are you ready? We can leave now! - Izzie shouted.
-Yeah. - i came out of the bathroom fully dressed, recovered and healed, ready to hop rogth back into work.
-Oh! You look good! - Izzie cheered me, as i came out in a white shirt and light indigo pants.
-Thank you! Are we taking George?
-Yeah, he is already in the car, at the back.
-'Kay. Give me the keys. - i put out my hand waiting for her to drop it, and as soon as i got it, i left.
-Close the doors!
-Mer, are you okay? You sure to be back? - George asked me when i sat behind the wheel.
-Absolutely! Look at me! I am fine! I want to work again, so badly! - i took the whole weekend off, and Monday too.
-I mean the Chief could give you some time out,
-I am fine George! Stop worrying!
-Okay, it's just that not too long ago, you were
-George i can take care of myself. Thank you for being kind and thoughtful, but i can make my decisions. - i started the car, after interrupting him for the second time.
When we got out of the car, and left towards the elevator George turned to me again.
-Are you sure, Mer?
-George, i am completely okay. You are just like Derek. Could you - i suddenly stopped when the light bulb turned on in my head.
-George. Did Derek ask you to keep checking on me? - i asked in a warning voice.
-Y...i mean no...Of course...not, we .... We just you know and he asked ... no.
-George. Did he ask you to do this? - i asked again in that voice, and looked at his sweaty forehead.
-Y...yes. - he confessed.
-Ahh, i can't believe this! What an ass! - i cursed.
-Hey, Mer, he is just trying to look out for you! - Izzie added.
-Okay, but still an ass! - i continued.I was wheeling an old man out of surgery, towards the elevators. The surgery was such a high...I don't know why any people take drugs. Since our intern exam was within the month, Bailey let us do some surgeries alone. It was calming to do a surgery without supervision. Full of responsibility, but the best. Luckily Bailey hadn't been like Derek, and , let me do the things everybody else did alone. I knew he was just worried about me, but still.. such an ass...
When i pushed the button, and the doors opened, Derek was in there waiting for me. I pushed the movable bed in, with Mr.Green on it, and he was looking around, observing.
-Meredith, how are you? Heard you did a surgery alone! Congrats!
-You asked George to track me. - i started furiously.
-I did not.
-You did! I know you are worried about me, but please Derek, i am asking you to -
-Mer, i am sorry. Okay? I was just... trying to make sure tat on your first day back, you are completely fine. I will stop. I promise you. I will stop if you promise me something. - i stopped wheeling the gurney, forgetting about the old man for the moment.
-Yes?
-Tell me if you are not okay. Tell me if you are just Meredith fine. - he asked with pleading a pleading smile.
-Okay...I can do that. But will you stop with the looking after me?
-I always look out for you.
-Okay, but do in in the normal boyfriend mode. You know giving my your hoodie, punching Mark, taking me home before the tenth tequila shot, pulling me out of the sea, buying me dinner things. - i kept telling him the things i liked, whispering.
-I will, so dinner tonight?
-Going to Joe's with friends.
-Am i coming? - he asked with his brows furrowed.
-You are a friend...
-Just a friend?
-A boyfriend kind of friend. Who by the way i love...And i will need somebody to take me home before my tenth tequila shot. - the doors opened and i wheeled out the patient, with Derek on my side.
-Mhm, your boyfriend who loves you is taking you home after your seventh...- he arranged my bangs for a brief moment as i stopped for a second, to let someone cross the hallway before me.
-Before you start flirting with everybody else...- he added stealing another moment for his fingers to stay on her face.
-Jealous? - i asked smirking at him.
-Nope...I know i am the only one getting these. - he pulled his hands down on my back, as he had just taken off some dirt.
-Derek...I have a patient! - i pointed at the man in front of me, who now seemed to be very interested in our conversation.
-Okay. I will see you at home.
-Home? - i asked back giggling at his reaction when he was wordless, while i was wheeling Mr.Green further.
-It's okay. I will see you at home! - he turned around to leave, but between us, grabbed my hand.
-And Derek! - i turned after him.
-Yeah?
-Sorry i called you an ass! - i shew him an evil smile.
-You didn't. - he was confused.
-I did...Three times! - i smiled at him again.
He just shook his head laughing too, and i closed the door after Mr.Green and me.
-Girl, if you don't marry him, i will. - he said turning back towards me.
-Dr.Green, please don't turn your body that much yet! - i warned him, but smiling. Eventually i wanted to get married. Not now. Not tomorrow. But once. Because now i was sure Derek was the one for me.
