Together at last! Some Grey’s Anatomy fans are losing their cool over speculation that Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) and Alex Karev (Justin Chambers) maybe, just maybe, hooked up during the Thursday, February 2, episode. Many viewers have been waiting what feels like a lifetime for the two characters to just get together already, and some Twitter users think their wish has finally been granted.
Under the Sheets
After searching several jails in the area, Meredith gave up looking for Alex and decided to hit the hay. She sat down on her bed and, to her surprise, Alex was right there taking a nap! Who among Us hasn’t hoped to find a surprise Alex Karev waiting in bed?
After Alex confirmed that he’d been in her sheets all day, Meredith forcefully pushed him back on her bed, and the screen went black — and that’s when things got extra-flirty.
“All day?” Meredith asked.
“All day,” Alex confirmed, to end the episode. Who knows what actually went down off camera, but many fans posted on social media that the two may have had quite a frisky reunion.
Finally Happening?
Fans had been shipping #Merlex together since the winter finale in November, when there seemed to be some real chemistry between the two. And after series creator Shonda Rhimes offered vague hints to TVLine about the potential relationship, fans were totally convinced the pair are meant to be.
Could everyone’s favorite friends without benefits actually spark up a real romance? Check out the tweets below.
