Chapter Two

Izzie was sitting in the cafeteria at lunch time. She hadn’t seen Alex all day and hoped that she would see him at lunch. She was shadowing Dr Shepard that day, she still wasn’t allowed to do any thing but at least she wasn’t Sloan’s intern, he treated her like a slave and she was sick of the non stop sexual innuendos. Dr Shepard asked her questions and kept her busy with labs and charting, and even allowed her to draw blood. Drawing blood didn’t excite many interns, but when you were reduced to a candy striper it was a hell of a lot better then nothing.

She heard a masculine laugh and a small smile crept on her face. She looked up and her smile faltered a bit when she saw who was standing beside Alex, it was Addison Montgomery. Since when the they get along. When Alex talked to he always said he hated working with Satan. That what he called her. Satan. But looking at them now you wouldn’t think that. Alex was smiling widely and Addison had her head thrown back in laughter and was playing with the ends of her hair. She saw Alex look at his pager as it went off. But what he did next surprised her, her leaned forward and kissed her on the lips, and she in turn wrapped her arms around his neck.

She felt her chest tighten, tears prick the back of her eyes and bile rise her throat. She quickly lept out of her chair and ran out of the cafeteria. She was struggling to breathe and a lone tear escaped her eye and made its way down her cheek. It fell to the ground like her hopes.

Summary: Set a week after Alex kisses in the stairwell. Izzie realizes her true feelings for Alex. But is she too late?

Izzie was sitting on her bed looking in the mirror. She had made an effort to her appearance today. Usually she just through some clothes on and put her hair in a ponytail. Her blonde hair fell in curls around her face, she had a light layer of foundation on and lip-gloss that tasted like strawberries. The lip gloss was for him. The first time he kissed her, he told her she tasted sweet, like strawberries.

Last week when he had kissed her she had told him she wasn’t ready and that it was too soon after Denney. He apologized but said he wait for her for as long as it took her to be ready. She a big smile on her face. A real Izzie smile, it was like she was lit from within and her eyes sparkled. The weather seamed to match her mood and the sun was shining brightly in the sky.

As Meredith and Izzie walked up to the hospital, Meredith noticed something different about her roommate, it was like she had the old Izzie back, the pre-Denney Izzie. And for this Meredith was glad. As they ere getting ready in the locker room Meredith's curious side took over.

Meredith looked at Izzie and asked "What’s got you looking so bright and shiny today?"

Izzie looked around the room and when she was sure the were alone she answered "Well you last week I was working with Alex? Well he kissed me. But I told him I wasn’t ready and that it was too soon after Denny but he said that he would wait for me and that he would wait for as long as it takes and I’m ready and im going to tell him that I’m just going to walk up to him…."

Meredith interrupted" Your rambling, but that’s great Iz I’m really happy for you. It’s like I have the old Izzie back."

Izzie looked at Meredith, eyes wide. "Wow Mer that was very bright and shiny. But the old Izzie loves bright and shiny Meredith, much better then dark and twisty. So I’ll meet your for coffee later to tell you how it went."

Meredith smiled and replied. "Ok see you later."

Then Izzie left the locker room to find Alex with an extra spring in her step.

Bright and Shiney
