Grey's Anatomy Quote
Meredith: So, I got Alex to cover for me so I can leave right after I round on my patients... 48 uninterrupted hours!
Derek: Yeah, yeah, yeah... um... you know, maybe this is not a good weekend.
Meredith: What did Lexie say about me?
Derek: She didn't say anything. I did all the talking. Oh, don't blame her.
Meredith: So what, you're friends with my sister now? I mean, you talked to the other Grey about me?
Derek: You know what I talked about with the other Grey? All the things this Grey won't let me say.
Meredith: You can say anything to me.
Derek: I want to marry you. I want to have kids with you. I want to build us a house. I want to settle down and grow old with you. I want to die when I'm 110 years old, in your arms. I don't want 48 uninterrupted hours. I want a lifetime.
(Meredith steps back a little)
Derek: Mm. See what happens? I say things like that, and you fight the urge to run in the opposite direction. It's ok. I understand. I didn't, but now I do. I do. You're just getting started and I've been doing this for a long time. Deep down, you're still an intern, and you're not ready.
Meredith: I'm not ready right now. But things can stay the way they are, and I can get ready. I'll get ready.
Derek: Things can stay the way they are. We can still meet in the elevator, the on-call room, and maybe you'll get ready. And I'll wait. I'll wait until you're ready.
Meredith: Ok, then...
Derek: Yeah, but what if, what if while I'm waiting, I meet someone who is ready to give me what I want from you?
Meredith: What if you do?
Derek: I don't know...
Derek: Yeah, yeah, yeah... um... you know, maybe this is not a good weekend.
