I probably will not mention the interns too much. But thought it would be easier if you all knew the names…

Courage is Being scared to death, but saddling up anyways…

Meredith is facing some trouble in her life. What she really needs is a strong man to protect her. She is expecting but what happens when a single event changes everything? Can she really go on with this all? Will her hero be Derek? And will they face troubles along the way? And will Mark Sloan ever stop being a Manwhore? The only way to know is to read Like the Rain.

Courage. It's a gift. Some have it, some don't. The lucky few who do have it abuse the gift. But the large number of people who don't have it could definitely put it to great use. Take interns for instance…interns are so full of courage it blinds them from the truth. It blocks out all hope we have. But when we finally do cross the intern/resident line we are really up to the test on who has it and who doesn't…

Meredith looked out her bedroom window she could see the rain leaving streaks on the glass. She ran her hand down the window and sighed. Storms always made her think about her and Derek's relationship. She kept a secret from him though, unwilling to tell till she knew he would not mind the surprise. A large boom of thunder went off and she took a step back. Obviously taken off guard. Then a large cracking sound and all electronics ceased. She looked around and lay down to try to get some sleep. As soon as she pulled the covers over her head, she heard a buzzing sound coming from her pager. She ran into the hallway to see Izzie and George standing outside her door.

"911?"

"Yep let's go"

"So whatcha think is going on?"

"Well I don't know but Bailey, Mark, Derek, Addison, Burke, Torrez, and chief are all here so must be something big…."

"Well I hope something that will wake me up, Mer"

"Yeah me too" George said in between yawns.

They quickly walked in and saw a group of people surrounding the chief. They went to their interns. When the chief began to talk.

"Ok people, we have just been notified a tornado has a the south side of Seattle. We have arranged a few teams to go out but please be warned of how dangerous it will be. Not everyone is going. All interns will stay here and await the ambulances besides the following, Dr. Lexy Grey you will be following Cristina, Norman you with Karev, Dr.O'Malley you follow Dr. Meredith Grey, and Dr. Lisa Walton you follow Dr. Stevens. No time can be wasted. I want all residents to meet your usual attending. Let's go people."

Meredith met up with George and went to find Derek. They found him talking with Dr. Bailey.

"You two mine today?" Derek asked hopeful he would be working with Meredith. She nodded. He ordered Meredith to go and get the car number from chief.

"George there might be sometime I'll be away from you to. And I want you to watch Meredith closely. She hasn't been acting herself lately. Do you know why she is acting so weak all the time?"

"Yes I do sir. But with all due respect to Meredith I cannot tell you."

"I respect that dr. O'Malley but should I be worried?"

"No sir"

"Good." Meredith had returned once again holding her stomach.

"Car number 23"

"Ok let's go." Derek waited till Meredith was right beside him to say anything.

"Hey Mer are you feeling ok?"

"Uh yeah I'm fine." Meredith knew this was a lie but she had to keep her condition a secret just awhile longer.

"Are you sure? I could always drive you home and then come back."

"Derek listen we cant do this. We aren't a couple anymore. I am waiting, and you are hopefully waiting till I can actually commit to a relationship." She spat out and Derek was taken back.

"I am, Meredith. Believe me I'm trying but it is a little hard to see everybody so happy and it makes me miss you."

"Well I know but how do you think I feel? I live with Izzie who has Alex and George who's with Callie, and Cristina?"

"I know Mer, I know."

"Whatever let's just do our own things…" Meredith hops into the ambulance and sat in between George and Derek.

"So do we know how bad this is?" George broke the silence.

"No all I know is it's a tornado and we need to get out there." "You guys remember your safety protocol?"

"I do."

"Yeah"

"Good okay looks like we are arriving. Watch your step and I want you both to follow me until you get used to everything." An EMT opened the door and slyly looked at Derek.

"Listen I know you're a hotshot neurosurgeon and these are your prize guinea pigs but I ain't gonna kiss your asses all day."

"That was a very inappropriate thing for a person as low on the hospital food chain as you to say…" Derek fumed. Derek led them to a few patients lying on the ground. One with a metal pole piercing her heart, a pregnant women with a broken neck, and a man that was evidently having some very fierce back pains.

"Meredith you tag the pregnant women and the penetrated women. George go get me a stretcher and two body bags."

"Yes sir" In no time the two bodies was bagged and Derek had the one patient on the way to the hospital.

"Good job you two."

"Derek there's one over here" Meredith called out.

"Ok I'm coming" he examined the patient. He was an older fellow lying in a ditch evidently trying to escape the tornado. Meredith was actually talking to him.

"Sir are you ok?"

"I'm fine I fell and broke my ankle trying to escape. Its no big deal I just couldn't get up."

"Well sir it is a big deal. You just outsmarted a tornado." Meredith said smiling.

"Well I don't know you miss but you sure are a looker." He said smiling at her.

"Well your not the first to tell me that. But I'm not sure it's a good idea to hit on your doctor."

"I wasn't flirting I was stating a fact. What do you guys think?" he said pointing at George and Derek.

"She is absolutely gorgeous" was Derek's response and George just nodded.

"See young lady"

"Ok sir but I think we should get you onto a stretcher."

"Ok if you say so miss. But do you have a name?"

"Dr. Grey. But its just Meredith. Call me Meredith."

"Ok Meredith. That's a pretty name." he said as an EMT loaded him into the ambulance.

"Good work Mer."

"Yeah anytime." She got dizzy and was having trouble standing. She grabbed Derek's sleeve.

"Meredith! Are you ok?"

"I don't feel good."

"It's ok. Just come on I'm going to take you home. We are pretty much done here." He said before tipping her into his arm and carried her to an ambulance so that they could get back to the hospital where his car was.

"So are you sick or something?"

"I already told you I'm fine!"

"You about collapsed!" he said handing her a bottle of water. Which she took a sip of and instantly started choking. Derek rubbed her back lovingly.

"easy there Mer."

"I was thirsty, I haven't had anything to eat or drink in a week." Knowing she said too much she put her hand to her mouth.

"Why?" he said with a look of concern.

"Uh no reason."

"Meredith?" he warned

"I can't tell you. Not yet anyway."

"When will you be able to?"

"Soon." He looked impatiently at her then pulled her onto his lap.

"Ok well hopefully you are not lying…"

"I'm not, Derek."

"Good." He said running his warm hands through her hair.

They had arrived at the hospital and Derek made Meredith get in his car and he drove her home.

"Derek?"

"Yeah?"

"Would you yell if I told you something?"

"Well I don't know what your referring to but no, I would never yell at you."

"Good. I can tell you when we get to my house."

"Wow that was fast. What made you change your mind?"

"Oh just the fact that I can't wait to see the look on your face when I tell you."

"oh must be something good."

"Well depends on how you look at it."

"Oh ok" he pulled in her driveway and walked her inside and carried her up the stairs.

"Now can you tell me?"

"Yep. I am pregnant, with your child." She said hoping for a good response. Which his jaw dropped down and he hugged her.

"That's great Mer! How far along are you?"

"3 months."

"You kept it from me that long?"

"Yeah you never even noticed?"

"Well you haven't been letting me!" Suddenly the phone began ringing and Mer picked it up. It was Cristina Yang.

"Mer?"

"Yeah what you need Cristina?"

"I'm pregnant."

Courage gives us the extra security and hope, but really it means nothing. You can do the same thing even if you have no courage at all. Life can make or break us; courage helps determine who goes down and who doesn't. We think we need it to survive but its just a side setting…
