Mer and George taking:

-He wants to build us a house,
with kids' bedrooms and french doors,
and that scares me to death.

- Why?Just 'cause of the Rose thing?Well, that shouldn't scare you.It was just one kiss.

-One kiss?

-Yeah, I wasn't eavesdropping. It wasn't
like they were being secretive about it.
It was just something that happened.
Now that you guys are back together,
it's not happening anymore, so...

- Derek kissed Rose?

- Yeah, but you knew that.
That I'm an...An idiot.

Later...
Mer and Derek

-How's Tuck?

-He's intubated, and we won't know
anything for a few hours.

-How are you holding up?

-Who's Rose?

-Rose is a circulating nurse. I kissed her once. But you know that.
That's why you're asking me.

- When?

- When?

- When did you kiss her?

- Yesterday.

-So yesterday you were making out
with scrub nurses, and today you're building
our dream house.

-Yesterday we were dating other people.

- That's not the point.

- That is the point.
I told you I wanted to marry you...I wanted to build a house and a life with you, and you weren't ready.

-And Rose is?
You don't want to build a life with me.
You want someone. You want someone who wants the same things that you want.

-I knew the minute
I showed you those plans you'd find some reason to walk away.

- So what, you called my bluff?

- I did because I can't do this anymore.I can't do the fighting, the back and forth. I can't.
Are we together or are we not?

- We were together. I was in love with you.
You didn't tell me you were married.

-Okay, so now we're gonna have that fight again.

-You didn't tell me about your nurse. You want to know why I'm not ready to build a house with you?This is why. Because I cannot trust you.

-You can't trust anybody. And no matter what I do... You're always gonna look for reasons not to trust me. I can't do it anymore. I can't.

- Well, neither can I.

Mer's POV

It's been a week since me and Derek broke up. I gave up on tequila it has made me emotional 24/7 and very nauseous. Everybody in the hospital knows I'm in the dark and twisty place so everyone avoids pissing me off because they don't want me to explode into an emotion mess. McDrea- sorry McAss is strutting around showing everyone his new girlfriend, who by the way talks about him 24/7 and says she "loves him" with her doey eyes. You know what I'm gonna go get all drunk and have a one night stand! That'll make me happy! Well happier.

"Grey? Grey! GREY!"

"What? Huh? Sorry"

"I said your with Sloan!"
