The morning before their shift, Mallory Shepherd and Alex Karev decided to stop over at Meredith Grey and Derek Shepherd's house. They all sat in the kitchen while they discussed the plans for the house Derek wanted to build, a plan that Derek had been discussing since the group had first become residents.

Everyone figures doctors are the most responsible people they know.

"I'm thinking we put the tub here," Derek told them, showing his sister and brother-in-law the blueprints for the house. "That way Meredith can take a bath and look out the window at the trees."

"Oh my God, Meredith," Mallory turned to Meredith with a grin. "Do you hear this? He is spoiling you. I want a house."

With a shrug, Alex retorted. "So we'll buy a house."

"No, I want you to build me a house," Mallory stressed to him. "Let's build a house."

"It's an idea," Alex nodded slowly as he replied. "Though, I'm not sure we'll have the time for it at the moment."

All Mallory could do was sigh as she nodded along, knowing that he was right. Between Carter turning one and them finding out about the pregnancy, building a house would be the last thing they needed on their plate.

"But since I want to do that," Derek continued with his ideas. "It means we would have to move that sink there, because there's no way we can get two sinks on that wall."

"Okay," Meredith replied, not seeming to be listening. "Sounds good."

"Okay," Derek's brows furrowed as he asked. "So, do you want me to move the tub or do you want to share a sink?"

They hold lives in their hands.

"Man, decisions, decisions," Mallory considered the choices since Meredith wasn't considering them herself. "If I were you, I would pick my own sink."

"Hey," Alex spoke up with a raised brow. "We share a sink."

"I know."

Just then, Jackson Avery walked through the kitchen on his way upstairs, reeking of alcohol from the night prior. The second the scent hit Mallory's nose, it sent her running into the bathroom to throw up.

They're not flakes.

She ran out just as Lexie Grey walked into the kitchen. When she noticed the look of confusion that began to cross Derek and Meredith's faces, she was quick to turn her attention to Carter, pretending she hadn't noticed at all.
