Beautiful desires

2.

The next morning, Meredith took an aspirin while she waited for the kids to come in. Her head was pounding, and the sight or mention of food made her want to puke her insides up. This used to be a way easier, she thought to herself. They really weren't 20 anymore. And on top of that, she remembered all her conversations with Derek. She prefers when she can't remember her drunken words. She was feeling quite humiliated but she couldn't help but think about him. About how good his shirt looked against his arms and chest, how incredibly amazing he smelt, how focused he was on her, how his glances made her feel. She shook her head.

The day went by gradually, but she was more than glad when the home time bell rang. She waved the kids off. Then spotted Amelia. "Miss grey." Amelia smirked.

"I am so sorry about last night." Meredith said quietly, as Julia headed to get her coat.

"Oh please I was the one pouring the shots for us. I had a great night, and great company. Chill Meredith you were just out with friends, as I was."

"Derek offered to pick Julia up today, I can only wonder why."

"I don't know who's worse, you or Mark." Meredith laughed. Trying her best to keep her blush under control.

"See you tomorrow sweetheart." Meredith smiled.

"Bye teacher!"

"Nice seeing you Meredith."

"You too Amelia." She smiled. Why is this family so nice, she thought to herself.

Cristina was finished around this time on Thursday's too, so she made her way across to the high school. The sunlight certainly hurt her eyes.

"Are you feeling as dead as I am."

"Like a bus ran me over, then yes." Cristina sighed.

"Let's just get home." Meredith yawned, pulling her arm.

When they got home they both collapsed on Meredith's bed.

"I think I might have really embarrassed myself last night." She eventually said.

"Mcdreamy?"

"Mcwhat?"

"Oh yeah while you were lost in derek land we decided the nickname was fitting."

"Mcdreamy? And I was not lost in anyone."

"Well tell me what this embarrassment is about."

"I don't know Cristina, I got really drunk, before we left I said some things, like how I don't do one night stands, and how I am most definitely not sleeping with him."

"That's not embarrassing."

"Cristina! I insinuted that sex was on the table by saying that."

"Mer! It's not like you just came up with it, I mean the man was practically drooling over you."

"No he wasn't." She rolled her eyes. "But mentioning it clarifies it was on my mind."

"So it was on your mind." She smirked.

"Cristina!"

"What? Were you? I mean the first night I met Owen, before anything happened, I definitely was thinking about it."

Meredith turned on her side. "Yeah?"

"Oh yeah." Cristina laughed turning on her side, now facing each other.

"Was talking to evil spawn today and he told me that he'd been speaking to Mark, and apparently Mark says that Derek was totally amazed by you."

"Cristina." She had to force her cheeks and lips not to smile.
