AN: Welcome to another chapter of Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This). I skipped the episode "Time After Time." I really, really, tried to make it work, but I really didn't like this episode, it was never my favorite and I always saw it as a filler episode and I couldn't figure out how to fit Eddie's story in. 

So, we are going to move onto Desire! I hope you enjoy this chapter. We are coming closer to Part 2!

Burke and Cristina's apartment was today's central hub for Cristina, Eddie, Meredith, Izzie, George, and Alex to study for their intern exams. They had been studying every chance they could get. 

Burke was trying to figure out wedding preparation while listening to his fiancé and her friends studying using Eddie's detailed study aids as if they were on a game show. It was currently Meredith's turn to be in the hot seat after George had been in the seat for about ten questions.

"What percentage of Americans look at an acute apnea?" Alex asked Meredith, who was having her turn in the hot seat.

As interns we know what we want...to become surgeons. And will do anything to get there...

"What are you two going to do night while I go study with my friends?" Eddie asked Mark as she gathered everything she needed in her bag.

Mark was standing in the kitchen with Frankie in his arms.

"We're going to watch some baseball," Mark said. "We need to get this one rooting for the right team, right Frankie? Go Yankees!" 

"Of course." Eddie said with a smile. "I should be back around ten or eleven, or whenever Burke kicks us out." 

Mark laughed. Burke would make them leave after a few hours because he like his routines and having people invade his home for hours would drive him nuts.

"Okay," he said as Eddie made her way over to him and kissed him and then she kissed Frankie.

"I love you both, Frankie make sure your daddy behaves." Eddie said with a teasing smirk.

"Haha." Mark deadpanned as he kissed her once again. "I love you too sweetheart."

Eddie smiled, as she kissed Frankie one more time and then she made her way out of the apartment.

"What are the signs of a central line infection?" Alex asked after Meredith got her last question right.

"Puss, redness and fever." Meredith answered.
