I need a little time, to think it over.
Again, i want to experiment with a 'what if?' More for my curiosity, but if you MerDer shippers are like me, you'll like this story...
It had been weeks, months even, since Prom. Meredith had just received news that Addison and Derek were divorced. Meredith should have been happy, that she could finally be with the man of her dreams, that was until she found him half naked in his trailer with a tall and beautiful woman, she ran out before he could explain, which he managaed to do at the hospital. Luckily for her, it was his sister, Nancy or now known as 'McBitch', visiting from the East Coast. But knowing this information now, she realised how much she still didn't know about Derek, and how little she trusted him. She had come to the conclusion that she needed a break fromSeattle, a break from her constantly-nagging friends, and a break from Derek. As had finished arranging her unexpected time off with Chief Webber, who should she run into on the stairwell -none of than McDreamy himself.
''So your sister really doesnt like me, huh?'' She smiled at him.
''Sorry,'' He explained, ''She's just, from the east coast'' They stood in silence glancing at each other.
''Well, uh--''
''Look i-- you know, i should've called''
''But you didnt...''
''I want us to work its just complicated i think i need a little time to--''
''Take some space''
''Yeah! to clear my head''
''Yeah okay okay''
''Okay.''
Meredith began to walk away but called after him, ''Derek!'' He headed back in her direction, smiling at her, flashing his sparkly, pearly whites. ''Im going away for a while. We both need some space. Just to let you know.'' He smiled at her again, looking down at his sneakers. ''Where are you going?''
''Minnesota, my mother owns a cabin up near Robina Lake. It's got a pretty good view up there. What about you?''
''Montana, also by a lake. I guess that's another thing we have in common. I'll see you when i get back?''
''Yeah, i'll..i'll see you then.''
Meredith continued to hurry down the stairs ready to go home and pack; the sooner she could clear her head, the sooner she could have Derek in her arms.
