A/N: Hey… A lot of thanks to all those reviewed… I'm so happy that a lot of people like my story… I didn't think you would like it… Thank You… and Happy Valentines Day!!!
Disclaimer: I don't own Grey's Anatomy… I wish I did… I only own those unnamed people that pass by or those people you've never heard of before… and of course the plot and Erika…
Last time:
"…and you must be the intern who's been screwing my father."
XXXX
"Father? You and Satan have a daughter and you didn't even tell me? How could you keep something as big as this from your girlfriend? When—How did this happen?" Meredith fired the questions at Derek. How dare he hide the fact that he has a daughter with his ex-wife! He's her boyfriend and they shouldn't keep things from each other.
"You see, a little more than 15 years ago, my parents fell in love, had hot steamy sex, Mr. Sperm meets Ms. Egg…" Erika said like she was talking to a 10-year-old. Meredith winced and snapped at her.
"I know how the process goes. I'm a doctor and I'm not stupid!"
"Then stop asking stupid questions. You very well know how this happened. They were in love, married and had a child. That child happens to be me. Is that so hard to understand?"
"I wasn't even talking to you. I was talking to my boyfriend."
A voice was heard from behind Meredith. "Then talk to your boyfriend outside, Dr. Grey. I believe this room was prohibited to everyone except for the required staff."
XXXX
Addison woke up a few minutes after Derek had but chose to remain on the couch. She heard the door open and another person entered the room. She saw who it was when she partially opened her eyes, and was furious at Derek for bringing Meredith in the room without telling her. They haven't talked about telling other people yet.
When her daughter introduced herself, she was so proud. It reminded her of the way she introduced herself to the same intern when she first came to Seattle.
Addison tried to stop herself from interfering, convinced that her daughter can handle herself but when Meredith started to take out her anger on Erika, she had enough. She rose from the couch and stood behind the intern.
"Then talk to your boyfriend outside, Dr. Grey. I believe this room was prohibited to everyone except for the required staff." Addison moved to her daughter's bedside.
"Keep your personal life to yourself and away from your professional life, especially when you're in front of a patient. More so, when that patient is my daughter. Now I suggest you get out of this room before I very well lose my temper and report you to Dr. Bailey."
Meredith turned to Derek for support but he wasn't even looking at her, and it hurts. He was too busy looking at his daughter.
"You heard her, Meredith. Go, I'll talk to you later." Derek said, still not looking at his girlfriend.
Good thing she wasn't on-call tonight. She's going to Joe's and celebrate her once-again miserable and dramatic life. With one last look at the "family", she ran out of the room.

"I'm so happy you're awake. I really missed you so much." Addison said, hugging her daughter. Derek repeated her action.
"You scared the hell out of us, Gummy Bear. Don't you ever do that again, okay?"
"I'll try my best. I missed you both so much. One year away from my favorite parents is just too much." Erika said, really happy to see her parents again.
"We're your only parents." Addison answered laughing.
She missed times like this when they are just themselves, relaxing, laughing like they just don't care.
"You know what, when you get better and if you want to, you can move to Seattle." Addison was so excited at the prospect of being with Erika again. It was the best thing that came from their marriage. "That way, you will be near Dr. Burke when your heart troubles you again and I have my shopping partner back."
Derek groaned, while the girls laughed. Both Erika and Addison's past time is shopping.
Back in New York, Derek used to complain that he has to carry all the bags and that both his hands weren't enough to carry all of their purchases, but being with his two favorite girls was more than enough payment for the service.
"I don't think my salary is enough to pay for all of this. We might be going broke with all this shopping you both are doing." Derek used to tease them. But both Addison and Derek know that their 6-figure salaries are more than enough to pay for all of their expenses, luxuries and more.
"Seriously?! Seriously?!" Erika asked really excited.
"Doesn't she remind you of someone?" Derek asked laughing.
"Seriously, Erika, but only if you want to." Erika answered her daughter and turned to Derek "She's like Izzie Stevens when she gets excited.
"Nice try, honey. Only the 'seriously' part is Stevens. But she's more like you when she's excited."
"What do you expect?" Erika answered. "Like mother, like daughter."
That statement remained hanging in the air.
"Gummy Bear… About Meredith…" Derek tried to explain. Nobody was saying anything but he was sure it was all in their minds.
"Derek…" Addison said, knowing their daughter wasn't ready for that kind of conversation just yet.
"Dad, can we not discuss this now? I don't want to hear anything about her or related to her just yet."
"We'll wait until you're ready. But at some point we have to discuss this."
"I know… Mom, Dad, I met Dr. Stevens, Izzie, when I first came here. Is it okay if I talk to her?"
XXXX
"Stevens!" Dr. Miranda Bailey called out to her intern who had just finished her rounds and was talking to George O'Malley.
"Yes, Dr. Bailey?" Izzie asked
"Come with me. O'Malley, shouldn't you be doing your rounds?"
"Right on it, Dr. Bailey." George answered leaving as fast as he can, not wanting to feel the wrath of the Nazi/
"Who is your attending today?" the Nazi questioned.
"Dr. Montgomery but I can't find her anywhere."
"I want you to get the lab results of Ms. Brooks for Dr. Montgomery. You are to give it to her at Room 219."
"Seriously? I'm allowed in there? I thought that room was prohibited."
"I know that and now the occupant of that room wants you there, so you go in there. Don't let them regret the decision of allowing you there." Miranda said and began to walk away but turned back
"Oh yeah. Don't forget to knock and wait for them to open the door. Whatever you find out in that room, you keep it to yourself. Are we clear?"
"Yes, ma'am… I mean, Dr. Bailey." She was surprised that she was he one requested to go in there when everyone in the hospital will go in there given half-a-chance to do so.

Izzie and Alex were both on-call that night. Cristina and George both assumed that Meredith was with Derek so the two of them decided to go to Joe's to finish the day with alcohol in their system. When they entered the bar, they saw Meredith alone in a booth, drowning herself in tequila.
"What happened to you?" Cristina asked, sitting in a chair opposite Meredith.
"My life is a miserable soap opera. I am the most miserable woman on earth." Meredith answered, a little drunk.
"Where's McDreamy? I though you two are together. I haven't seen him all day."
"He's with his daughter." Meredith said while the two were drinking their beers. They choked on their drinks and fluid came out of their nostrils.
"He's with his what?!" both of them stared at her and answered in shock.
