Meredith Grey was sitting in a local café reading the daily newspaper sipping on her latte. Meredith was a world class surgeon and a single mom; despite the fact her mother was one as well. The reason for Meredith being a single mom is when she found out that she was pregnant she told the love of her life to leave and get out her life because he was still married.

Chloe Marie Shepherd had grown up with a very large family consisting of Mark Slone, Cristina Burke, Izzie Stevens, George O'Malley, Alex Karev, Preston Burke, Grandma Ellis and Grandad Richard. They had been there for her first word, the first time she cried, the first time she cried, everything. Meredith had done her best to ensure that Chloe would always have someone there for her no matter who it was.

When Meredith reached the middle pages of her newspaper she saw an article which caught her eye.

Derek Shepherd saves the life of the senator.

Dr Derek Shepherded performed an emergency medicalmedical on senator Williams . The Senator fell ill on Friday night and was rushed to Washington General. Where Shepherd found out he had a brain tumor that if had been left could of killed him.

Dr Shepherd had just accepted the job of chief of surgery at one of the countries leading hospitals Seattle Grace where current Chief of Surgery Richard Webber will be retiring,

Meredith was enraged by this article not because she hadn't told Derek about Chloe but because her own father had not told her about him taking over the job. Meredith slammed a couple of dollars down on the table and stormed out of the café heading toward Seattle Grace

As soon as Meredith Land over rover rolled up to Seattle Grace she headed for the chief of surgery's office. She opened the door without knocking and said

"You made him the new fucking chief of surgery and didn't even tell me,"

Meredith then noticed that Derek was sitting in the room with the chief.

"Hello Meredith,"

"Shut Up you don't get to talk to me,"

"Meredith I was going to tell you the decision was only made yesterday," Richard said

"Then how the fuck was it in today's newspapers, you're supposed to be my so called father and yet you lie to my face," Meredith said

"Meredith," Derek said

"NO you don't get to talk to me you left me with a fucking child to raise by myself," Meredith yelled without remembering that she hadn't told Derek.

"WAIT, I am a father," Derek said

"Ok I think we should calm down," Richard said

Meredith just ran from the office, tears were streaming down her face. She found the nearest closet and slumped to the floor of it remembering the night Derek left.

"You have to fight for us," Derek yelled

"NO, you are married Derek you have a beautiful wife who loves you I will not be that person who breaks up a marriage, I will not be the person, I fucking refuse to be that person,"

"Meredith I am divorcing Addison,"

"I have heard that before,"

"Mer I love you."

"Just get the fuck out of my house," Meredith screamed.

Once Derek had left Meredith ran to the bathroom and puked. She decided to take the test and see if she was right.

Three minutes later the test showed it was positive. That night Meredith cried her self to sleep.

The next morning a note had been shoved threw her door saying

Gone to New York, call me when you are ready to talk

All my love

Derek x
