Takes place a month after "Finally". Stephanie lives with Jo and Alex in Meredith's old apartment. Izzie will be mean , rude and manipulative in this story. Enjoy Jolex fans!
It was morning in the Karev-Wilson-and (unfortunately) Edwards house. Alex rolled over and was met with a bush of brown hair. Jo. He snuggled closer to his girl-no, fiancee, he reminded himself. He pulled her closer to his chest; inhaling in the scent of her vanilla shampoo. Oh how he loved that.
"Mmm," Jo turned to face him. How did he always manage to look so irresistible in the morning?
"You ready?" Alex moved a piece of her hair from her face.
"For?"
"Work," he pointed out. It hit her. Oh yeah, she could come back. A month ago, there was an explosion at the hospital and she suffered second degree burns. She was ordered to stay away from work for a month.
"Well yeah," she sat up a bit. "But I was thinking we could do something a bit more…naughty," she smirked at his surprises expression. He then smirked as well. "Thought you'd never ask."
Jo sat on top of him and leaned down to kiss him roughly.
"Ew are you two still together?" a voice snorted.
Alex, who's eyes were closed, prayed with all his might that it wasn't who he thought it was. It couldn't be. But lone behold, there stood Cristina Yang with as smirk on her face. "Keep that up and we'll have tiny Evil Spawn's among us."
"Get out of my room!" He snapped, annoyed. All he wanted was one quiet morning with his fiancee, wasn't it too much to ask for?
"It's been what, five years?" She sent a scruntnizinf look over to Jo. "Huh, no bar girl or nurse; I'm impressed, Karev."
To say that Jo was embarrassed that her former boss found them in bed was an understatement. They really needed a lock.
"Why are you here anyway?" he asked gruffly, sitting up in bed. Jo hesitantly did the same. Good thing she was wearing real pajamas. Alex was just in a shirt and boxers but she knew he didn't care. Alex and Cristina lived together before.
"I moved back here," she shrugged. A moment later she added, "And I'm living here."
"W-what," Alex choked. "You're-you're living here? You can't." She raised her eyebrows.
"Edwards has your old room."
"Move her to the attic," Cristina waved dismissively, as if it was no big deal.
"Fine-no!" Alex shot back when Jo glared at him daringly.
Cristina waved her hand again. "We'll talk later. I have hearts to play with." She left without closing the door.
"Dress appropriately for the eyes!" she called over her shoulder.
Alex groaned and fell back on the bed. "We'll never have privacy again," he said more to himself then Jo.
