I hope you all are liking this story!
The chapters are shorter than I am used to writing, but I just feel that is where they should stop!
Enjoy!
Chapter 2: Harder to Breathe
She awoke to the smell of waffles and bacon. Sitting up she saw her bed was empty. Walking down the hall and into the kitchen she found her brand new fiancé making breakfast for her.
"Good Morning." Derek said as she walked up to the island in the kitchen.
"Morning." Meredith replied.
Derek smiled, "I was thinking we could call your parents and tell them the good news." He said looking at her snazzy diamond.
Meredith frowned, "Actually, I think I should tell them in person." She said looking at the marble of the counter top. "Alone." She said.
Derek sighed, "They haven't even met me. Don't you think I should get to know my future in-laws?"
"I haven't been home in 10 years. I need to tell them in person. Just let me talk to them alone." Meredith said hoping she could convince Derek.
Derek nodded, "Okay. But I want to meet them soon. I don't know anything about your family."
"Don't worry you will." Meredith glanced at her watch. "I have a flight in three hours. I need to pack and get to the airport.
Derek nodded and let Meredith go pack her things. An hour later Meredith was at the airport waiting in the security line. She needed it to move faster. She wanted to get this visit over with.
Her nerves finally calmed down when she was in the sky. Most of that was probably due to the wine she had on the flight. She had wanted tequila, but the airlines didn't carry alcohol that strong. It seemed like minutes and the plane was landing in Seattle.
Meredith walked off the plane and found her way to the rental car lot. After getting her rental car she drove the familiar route to a house she spent many days at. Walking up the steps she knocked on the door. She faintly heard a dog start to bark. When no one came to the door, she wasn't surprised.
Meredith got back in her rental car and headed towards the one place she didn't want to go. Meredith Grey was on her way to Seattle Grace Hospital.
