So this story is about if Finn abused Meredith. It isn't great but I have fun writing this. I go on holiday this week so won't get updated that often. I DON'T OWN ANYTHING. Please review. Thanks for reading Emilyxxx
As I sat on the cold floor of my bathroom shaking I tried to think how this had happened. I couldn't picture it. We were Meredith and Finn. We were happy. He said he loved me. He said it more than once. But deep down I knew it's all just a lie. He didn't want me. He wants to compete with Derek. Derek... he should've loved me but he doesn't. Finn is staring at me with cold eyes.
"You tell anyone and I'll do more than slap you got it?" he spat harshly. I nodded. I couldn't speak . The pain was too much, not just the physical pain either. He left me sitting against the wall. I could hear the engine of his car getting further away. I sighed and looked in the mirror. I touched the red patch on my cheek. Thinking how I could cover it up. I heard the door open and dashed to my room.
My only and therefore best idea was makeup. Lots of it. I definitely covered it but I did look a tad orange. Thankfully I wasn't bothered much. George asked if I wanted dinner but I just shook my head. I wasn't up for eating.
The next morning I did the same. It was starting to bruise. I decided I would ask Mark later how long it would last. Izzie looked but didn't say anything. I could feel her eyes on me the whole journey.
"Mer, you been on holiday?" Christina joked. I wasn't in the mood for her at all today. I glared at her and just kept on walking. Everyone kept looking and whispering. It was making it harder to keep my head held high. I was wondering if last night would be a one off. Something in Finns eyes told me it wouldn't.
"Mark" I called weaving through the masses of people. He turned around and gave me his famous smile.
"How long do bruises last?" I asked trying to sound as innocent as possible.
"Depends on how they got it why?" he looked at me closer. I could tell the whole patient wants to know thing wasn't going to work this time.
"A patient slapped me" I muttered while staring at the floor. His eyes widened and he pulled me into an empty on call room.
"Sit". I was totally regretting telling him. Why couldn't I have gone with the other excuse?
"It's fine Mark, I just wanna know how long it will be there for" he looked more unconvinced than he did before. I sighed and buried my head in my hands. Only to realise it hurt. A lot. I gasped and sat up.
"I'll call Derek" he warned.
"You wouldn't" . He nodded and stood up.
"Fine " I huffed. I took off my makeup. He took my face carefully and pressed on the bruises. I winced and he shot me and apologetic look. Five minutes later he stepped back.
"Well big grey, they'll take about a week maybe more. You should really report the guy who hit you; it must have been pretty hard." I nodded and walked out. I would never report Finn. It would mean Derek would know and prove I'm a weak person. Prove my mother right. It might just happen once, I tried to convince myself.
"Hey Meredith, would you mind giving me your opinion on a patient" he said dazzling me with his smile.
"Sure" I replied taking the file. Before long we were laughing and talking like we were best friends. For once I completely forgot about Finn and was happy again.
Once my shift was over I went to the locker room. Finn was standing talking to George. I smiled and waved to Finn. He said goodbye to my friends and walked me to my car.
"Why don't you come over to mine" he whispered in my ear. I swallowed and got into my little car.
"So how was your day, talk to Derek much?"
"It was good I didn't really see much of Derek" I lied hoping he would believe me.
"Funny, I saw him talking to you earlier, looked pretty cosy to me" he hissed really mad now.
"I didn't y-you know I w-wouldn't do that to you" I stammered. He punched me hard and I felt a sharp pain in my ribs. I cried and bit my lip. He threw me against the wall.
"You're lying Meredith, I SAW you". Before I knew it I was on the floor and he was kicking me. I shut my eyes and pictured Derek, his McDreamy smile and beautiful eyes. I missed him. Once Finn had finished he calmed down and said he was sorry. He kissed me goodnight. I shakily stood up and made my way to the car. I wanted to get as far away from Finn and run until I couldn't breathe but I knew I couldn't hide from him forever. I drove fast out of the driveway and sped home.
I lay on the couch watching my mum's old surgeries with Alex and Christina until way past midnight. I couldn't sleep.
"Hey Mer, what's up. You haven't spoken in like an hour."Alex asked.
"Nothing I'm fine" he didn't look convinced but let it go.
"Grey, Yang, Karev why do you fools look like you haven't slept" Bailey yelled.
"Um... we haven't "Alex answered looking a bit uncomfortable.
"Your doctors for god's sake you need sleep to save people "she continued to rant in the middle of the hall.
"Stevens and O'Malley pick where you want and Grey, Karev and Yang charting. Go!" she turned and marched to the nurses' station.
"This is your fault" Christina almost screamed at me. I sighed and picked up the charts. At least I could get some sleep later.
"Big grey how's the face?"Mark asked half joking. I looked over his shoulder to see Derek coming over to us. I sent a deathly warning look at Mark. He continued
"You let any more big guys slap you... oh hi Derek" If it was possible to die of embarrassment I would have.
"Meredith what does he mean?" Derek demanded.
" Nothing, a patient got a bit angry and slapped me but it was nothing" Mark was so dead after this.
"Are you okay, can I take a look?"
"Derek you don't get to care, you have Addison".
"Even if I have Addison I still care"
"I'm sorry Derek but it's too much, just leave me alone okay" I snapped. He stared after me.
"Mark if I can't keep an eye o her will you?"
"Oh great, I get to spy on her now" he muttered.
On call rooms aren't the nicest place to sleep but they do for us. I dream of Finn every time I shut my eyes, it scares me. But on call rooms are different; they make me think and dream of Derek. I was peacefully sleeping until
"Meredith, Oh Merry, wake up... MEREDITH!" I woke up to Mark shouting in my face. I jumped and winced touching my ribs. They were still sore. I looked to see if he had noticed. Oh great, another thing to explain.
"Mer? Did he hit you there too?"
"No..um yeah Mark but just leave it" I sighed. Turning over.
"Let me guess your fine" he said sarcastically.
"Why do you care?"
"I'm spying on you for Derek now, he'll forgive me for the Addison thing then."
"Wow Mark Sloan being truthful could ya say it again for the tape" I rolled my eyes not caring he couldn't see that.
"Look why don't I take you home and I won't say anything to Derek if your really are fine"
"Fine" she realised too late she'd just said her favourite word yet again.
"So I kept my part of the deal you keep yours" he said.
"Nope I'm too comfy now" I replied sleepily. He pulled me off the sofa and I landed hard on the floor.
"Ouch, Mark way to go that really hurt "he smirked. He picked me up and sat me on the wooden table and lifted my shirt.
"Which one?"
"Second from the bottom" I was too tired to fight.
"Not broken" he concluded.
"See nothing to worry about" I said proudly.
"It's not broken but it is badly bruised so you might want to be careful. And you should really get it x-rayed". I just gave him a look that said not happening.
"Fine then, night big grey"
"Night Mark".
