We were standing in the rain. He looked so broken, but I had things to say and damnit he was going to listen to me. He had broken me so many times, but this last time, that was it. I couldn't be put back together. Not here. Not in Seattle. Not with him.

Tears were streaming down my face. I could taste the salt as it passed over my lips. He started to walk toward me, I took a step back. "No, Derek. Don't. This," I pointed between myself and him, "This is over. You have broken me too many damn times. You may be a brain surgeon but you can be pretty damn brainless sometimes!"

"But Meredith-"

"Save it Derek. You had I don't know how many chances to make things work. You have had so many chances..." I started to lose control by now. He makes me so crazy! Why can't he just let me go? He obviously doesn't want me or he would have left Addison by now, but No. He chose her. He picked her. He loves her.

With that last thought, I finally did it. Something I should have done a long time ago, "Goodbye Derek." I turned and began to walk away, part of me hoping he would come after me, the other part hoping I would never have to see him again.

Derek POV

I stood their in the icy cold rain looking at the love of my life, and feeling my heart break in two. I had managed to hurt her again. She was crying and I wanted so badly to make her pain go away. I wanted her to understand that this time was different, but she had no reason to believe that. I had picked my wife over her once, why would she believe I wouldn't do it again? I had to try to make her understand. I started to walk towards her so that I could touch her, hug her, talk to her.

""No, Derek. Don't. This," she said. , "This is over. You have broken me too many damn times. You may be a brain surgeon but you can be pretty damn brainless sometimes!"

Her words cut through me like a knife. I couldn't lose her, not again, not like this.

"But Meredith.." I tried to say. I could'nt get my word out because she cut me off.

"Save it Derek. You had I don't know how many chances to make things work. You have had so many chances..." She paused and I was praying that she was re-thinking things.

"Good-bye Derek" Meredith said. I stood there for a moment frozen.

"Meredith wait! Don't go! I love you" I yelled. But my word were swallowed by the wind and rain. I began to run after but slipped and fell hard on the concrete. By the time, I was able to get up I could see Meredith driving away in her car. She would never know that I had gone after her. I couldn't believe it. I had lost her, and I felt like my world was crashing down around my ears. How was I going to live without Meredith Grey?
