Luna was stood in the kitchen, with a cup of tea, watching the toaster before the two slices of bread popped out. After her conversation with Mr Duff from the day before, she had been in an unusually good mood so she decided to celebrate by having breakfast.

She hummed the lyrics of 'Rich Girl' lightly as she was smothering the toast with strawberry jam. The girl was dancing around the kitchen as she put the jam back in the cupboard before picking up her plate and cup, moving it into the table.

Soon enough, she was sat with nothing but her own silence, staring at the toast infront of her. Just then, Derek strolled into the kitchen, he saw the position the girl was in and after the tense conversation the morning before, had figured out what was going on here. But he didn't want to point it out so tried to distract the girl into eating it.

He wandered over to the cupboard and pulled out his usual bowl and muesli, pouring it in "Is that strawberry or raspberry?" he asked, referring to the jam on her toast "Hm?" she hummed, her head clearly not in the room.

"The jam" Derek clarified, bringing his bowl of muesli and sitting opposite her on the table, she finally looked up at him "Oh! Its uh- it's raspberry" she watched as he ate a spoonful of his breakfast.

She felt so stupid. Derek was just sat eating like a normal person and it made her feel like a baby, the fact that she was just staring at hers. "Hmm, raspberry jam is my favourite out of all of the jams"

She smiled at his attempt at a normal conversation, she knew what he was doing and the thought of it brought a smile to her face "Mine too" the girl stated before lifting the toast and taking a reasonably big bite. Derek smiled but didn't make a big deal, eating another spoonful of muesli "Good?" he asked her, she shrugged "Not the best toast I've ever had"

He chuckled "You ever tried this?" he pointed down to his bowl using the spoon, she took another bite of toast before covering her mouth with her hand and shaking her head "Seriously?" he asked her, she smiled, now nodding.

He pointed the spoon at her "Tomorrow morning, you are eating muesli with me" Luna just smiled, liking the sound of that.

Luna wandered over to Dr Bailey who was leaning on a desk, looking down at paperwork "Hey Dr B" she smiled at her, Bailey however, just looked up with her usual displeased face before facing her paperwork again.

"Can I help you, Dr Lovelyn?" Luna nodded "Uh yeah, I was wondering who's service I'm on today? I tried to find Izzie to see who she's with but she's MIA, so is Meredith and George definitely doesn't wanna talk to me right now and" she paused, seeing the bored expression she was receiving from her resident.

"And you don't care" she trailed on, Bailey nodded "Correct, I don't" the intern pursed her lips, nodding her head "And you can stay with me today, I could do with an extra set of hands"

Miranda started walking away, Luna looked around, not sure whether that was indication for her to follow or now "Are you just gonna stand there? Come on" Bailey ordered, Luna quickly trailed behind her.
