17 parts Ongoing MatureWhen Meredith Grey begins her first semester at Dartmouth, she expects long nights, impossible coursework, and maybe the occasional heartbreak.
What she doesn't expect is Derek Shepherd - brilliant, composed, and far too hot to be her professor.
A chance meeting, an impossible pull, and a series of moments that blur the line between admiration and something dangerously close to more.
In a world built on rules, they both have everything to lose... and something undeniable to find.
A story of intellect, restraint, and the kind of connection that changes the way you breathe.
