Disclaimer: I don't own Grey's Anatomy and if I did, I would have Patrick Dempsey running around naked all day long. Sigh.
So this story is situated 2 weeks after the season 3 finale, when Meredith and Cristina have returned from Cristina's honeymoon. In this fic, there is no Burke and Meredith and Derek haven't broke up, but things aren't going too well... It's my first fic, so please be nice! And review!
Chapter 1: Introduction.
Meredith sighed. She felt so small as she was standing in front of the large SGH building. She knew she would have to face Derek one day, but she didn't feel like doing that today. Unfortunately, she had to work. So did Derek.
"Em... hi" a voice way too familiar to her came from right behind her. Meredith slowly turned around to find Derek there, staring with his georgous blue eyes into hers.
"Oh...em...hey" she responded quickly. There was awkward silence between them as they were both staring at the floor underneath their feeth.
"So..." Derek started, "I think we should talk about, well, you know, what happened at the wedding. About what you said?"
Just as Meredith opened her mouth, Cristina, who had walked in front of Meredith and now was walking all alone, yelled at her. "Seriously, Meredith, what are you doing? Get your ass over here, I don't want to face those gossiping and bitchy McNurses alone, looking at me with their oh-my-god-she-got-dumped-at-the-altar-by-her-freaking-boss-boo-hoo-looks!" Cristina looked annoyed, but also a bit uncomfortable.
Meredith first looked at Cristina, then at Derek, again at Cristina and finally again at Derek. "I have to go, but I promise we'll have the talk. Maybe we can lunch together? I'll page you."
Derek gave her his dreamy smile, the first in weeks. "Lunch is good, it's good" he said. "Okay, see you then." Meredith answered. Derek give her one last little smile and immediately, Meredith felt her knees going weak, but then got herself together, hurrying up to Cristina and leaving Derek behind.
"Oh god, you're so not over him, are you?" Cristina muttered.
"I don't know why I should even be over him, because as far as I know, he still is my boyfriend, even if things haven't been going well lately!" Meredith reacted.
"Things haven't been going well? Meredith, he met another woman who he flirted with the night before my non existing wedding. Then he declares his love to you, saying you're the love of his live and all you can say is that you have to go and as last, you leave on a holiday for 2 weeks and you didn't even give him one single call? I mean, give me a break." Now, Cristina was practically yelling and she had people staring at her as the two new residents walked trough the hospital doors.
Meredith knew her person was right. Derek didn't deserve what she had done. She had let him down, him and his loving feelings for her. She decided that at lunch, she would tell him about how she felt.
Meredith couldn't wait till lunch and she felt the desperate need to be around Derek again.
She hadn't realised how she had missed him, but seeing him again had made that she now was for sure that he also was the love of her life.
Now all she had to do, was tell him at lunch.
This lunch, if everything went well, could be the lunch that changed her private life for good. In a damn good way!
Okay, I know this isn't the longest chapter in the world, but please let me know what you think about it and whether I should continue or not. I'm planning on making it really fluffy, so for those who love that...REVIEW!!
PS, I'm sorry if there are spelling errors, but English isn't my mother tongue so...
