Summer, where are you? Please come quick – 1st chapter
Meredith, Derek and Zola are going to take a trip to Mexico together. This happens around season 8, before the plane crash and McBaby. I do NOT own Grey's Anatomy - I wish I did. I just borrowed Mer, Derek and Zola for a little while (: enjoy!
Meredith had already packed her bags and Zola's, they were just waiting for Derek.
- Derek, let's go, we're running late! – She yelled, looking at him. – Your hair does not need to be perfect all the time. Besides, it already is. We're going to miss our flight if you keep doing that!
Meredith and Derek were going away for summer vacation for the first time in ages! Now that they have Zola – finally –, they just wanted to celebrate a little and enjoy their first summer as a family. Well, as an actual family. This is why they can't be late! For a first trip with Zola, they should at least make it perfect. Or try to, either way.
Meredith and Derek slept in the plane, and so did Zola, although they did have more time to talk a little and plan their summer vacation while the baby girl was asleep. When they arrived in the beautiful country of Mexico, Zola was still sleeping and Meredith didn't want to wake her. It's been quite a day; she should be able to get some sleep after all.
As soon as Meredith and Derek went into their rent house, they realized it was much better than expected. It seemed much more expensive, too! Either way, it's been paid a very fair price and no matter what happened, the important thing was to have fun. That's why they were there in the first place.
- Did you like the house? – Meredith asked, as she unpacked everything and put their clothes into their closets. Yes, they had closets. Five in the whole house.
- Are you kidding? This is great, Meredith! – Derek replied, waiting for her to say something.
She didn't say anything, just kept unpacking. She didn't want to admit it, but the house was lovely. Derek was the one who chose it; she didn't get a say. Meredith let him choose it because she knew – deep down, even though we wouldn't spill it out – how important that trip was to him. Both Meredith and Derek took around 2 months off of their jobs to make this unforgettable, in a very good way, to Zola. He wanted to choose the house, so, what's the problem? Meredith let him. She just didn't think he'd end up choosing a good one.
- Ok, so Zola's sleeping. – Derek said, matter-of-factly.
- Yes. I just checked. – Meredith replied, without understanding what he meant by that.
- I was thinking maybe you and I could do something together. – Derek went all over her, wrapping his arms around hers. – Anything you want.
- What I want is for you to help me unpacks these. –Meredith cut him off. That must have hurt. Oh well, it's not her fault he's so bubbly and excited these last couple of weeks. Derek seemed extremely happy and it was sort of getting to her nerves. He's never been so happy. Apparently, that's the reason why she loved him so much, because right now it was getting harder to breathe around him.
- Ok… I can do that. – Derek replied, smiling in acceptance to what she said. – As long as you stay here with me.
Seriously, are you off your meds? Are you taking something you're not supposed to?! – Meredith started it as a joke, but then she turned out to the serious tone. She was actually concerned, because it might have been it. It made perfectly good sense; he was a doctor! He could have prescript something for himself.
- I'm sorry, you're talking to me? – Derek asked as he looked all over the room to see if there was someone else.
- Yeah! What the hell is going on with you lately? I mean, I can barely be alone in the same room as you and already you're trying to feel me up. I liked it when it was something less often, but right now it seems more like an addiction. – Meredith was actually concerned. If Derek didn't explain himself in the next 3 minutes, she was probably going to run with Zola.
- I saw the pregnancy tests in the trash. – Derek affirmed. – They were all negative.
- Yes.
- You didn't tell me.
- That's no news. Besides, I stopped taking my birth control. So it's really not meant to happen. – She walked out of the room – the master bedroom – and hoped he dropped the subject to when they got home.
Derek followed her to the kitchen and tried to make her feel better. He didn't want to fight, he just wanted to make her feel comfortable with him again, even if it comes down to the point where she doesn't want another child.
- Meredith… - Derek started, before she could interrupt him.
- You know what Derek? We don't have to talk about this here. At least not right now, ok? And if you could just start acting normal again instead of a nympho, I would thank you very much. – She would thank him. For the less it seemed, she would thank him a lot! It seemed like the only reason why he was acting like this was to get her pregnant.
Derek got to thinking, a lot of thinking. Yet, he couldn't figure out why she was like that. So, in the temptation of acting like a nympho again, Derek went into their bedroom to "talk" to her. Meredith finished packing and got tired, so she fell asleep in the middle of the bed. Derek didn't want to wake her, so he just went to the counter to get a book and read it.
When Derek got to the counter, he saw the enormous amount of books they'd brought and got him one. As he picked up his book, all the other books fell to the ground, which made him get them all. That's when he read a book entitled "How to get pregnant – a few tips that can change your life" and found it interesting. So she wanted a baby. She did. She just didn't want to tell him that – but why? That's what he needed to know.
