Hi guys. Sorry it's been so long since I have updated but I just haven't felt really inspired but now I think I am back on the horse so there should be more updates on the way. Anyways on with the story.

Enjoy! =)


After they left the bar Derek led them over to his car. When Meredith saw what car his was driving she stared at him confused. Why the hell is driving a minivan? Unless he is married and when you are married then you often have kids. And with kids you need a minivan. Oh my god, am I about to have an affair with a married man?!

"Okay I know what this looks like" Derek said.

"Oh yeah. What does this look like?" Meredith dared.

"it looks like I am driving am driving a minivan"

"So this is not your car?"

"It is but only because the rental agency mixed my orders and this was the only car they had left so I had to take it...." Derek explained.

Oh yeah that's right he just moved here! That explains why he would need to rent a car.

"I guess that makes sense" Meredith said.

"Okay so if we have finish talking about my car can we get moving because it is freezing out here?" Derek asked.

And that was when Meredith remembered why she liked to drive her own car. It was not so she would have it in the morning but when they were taking her car it was her that was driving and there for being in control of where they were going.

But when Meredith looked at… wait she still didn't knew his name!

Meredith you are not driving with a man whose name you don't know! For crying out laud you call him SMM. What if something happens and you have to talk to the police and they ask for his name. And all you can tell them is that you call him Sexy Mystery Man. I bet they will find him under that name!

But then again if you looked at him, he didn't look like someone who would drive off with some random woman he had only known for a couple off hours.

But when he opened the door for her she couldn't make herself to go and sit in the car.

"No I can't" Meredith exclaimed before she could think about what she had just done.

"Is there something wrong?" Derek asked with a confused look on his face.

That was when it hit Meredith what her outburst most have sounded like.

"No it is just that I still don't know your name and it's weird to get in a car with someone you don't even know the name of. And if something happens I won't even know your name and well that is just bad" Meredith rambled on.

But then she saw the look on Derek's face and realized she had just told him that she thought he would do something to her. And off course she think that he will do something to her but this is something that Meredith wanted him to do.

Okay Meredith you have just succeeded to ramble in your in your thoughts and only a master can do that. You have to fix it now!

"I mean not that I think you will do something to me or I do but only things I want and you seem like a nice guy and I would really like for me to shut up now. Please make me shut up because this is just embarrassing" Meredith rambled on again. And then she felt his lips on hers.

Derek was quit surprised about this woman's outburst but somehow he wasn't feeling offended out it more like he found it adorable and quit funny. But he wasn't sure how his facial expression looked but when he saw how this woman he still didn't knew the off by the way was looking panicked over outburst it only made it more funny. Derek could see that she was trying to figure out what say and he gave her the time. All he could think about was that every minute he spends with her the more he liked her. There was just something about her that was so special. So when she asked him to shut her up there was only one way he could think about and then before he knew it his lips was crashing on to hers.

First Meredith wanted to point out that this was not what she had in mind not that she was complaining. But when he wouldn't leave her mouth to let her speak and all of her words came out as a blur Meredith gave up. If there was on thing this unknown man knew how to do it is kissing her senseless.

When they finally needed to come up for air Meredith was gasping like she had just run a marathon. When she looked over to look at Derek he had a smirk on his lips.

"So what was the problem again?" he asked with a playful smile.

"I-i…can't remember" Meredith stuttered still out of breath.

"Okay then. Should we get going or do we still have some stuff to deal with?"

As an answer Meredith moved over to the still opened car door and climbed in. Derek closed her door and quickly moved over to the driver seat and climbed in to the car as well.

The car ride to the liquor store was in an awkward silence. Nether knew what to say to each other. Thankfully the store was only a couple off blocks away.

Derek maneuvered the car in to the empty parking lot in front of the store. Derek offered that she could stay in car since it would only cake a couple of minutes. Meredith agreed taking the time alone the pull her self together. After Derek had gotten out of the car and walked in to the store Meredith toke a deep breath.

"Meredith, get your self together! It is not like you haven't done this before. It is not like you are going to marry him or something. This is just a one night stand. It is not a test. Besides if there was a test you have already past it since he decided to walk up and talk to you. So take a deep breath and stop acting like an idiot!"

After taking a couple of deep breaths Meredith toke out a small mirror she had in her purse to check how she looked. Just when she had putted it back in her small purse she saw Derek coming out with a brown bag that probably contained the booze. They made eye contact and Meredith gave him a smile which he returned. Way to go Meredith. You are back in the game. Meredith thought.

Derek got back into his car where he gave Meredith the booze.

"So where are we going?" he asked with a goofy grin.

Meredith gave him the directions to her house. Derek reached over to turn on the radio where he had a CD with his favorite band in the CD player. When the sound of The Clash come out of the speakers Meredith couldn't help her self and began to laugh. Derek quickly turned over to look at her with an amused look before he returned to watch the road.

"What is so funny?" Derek asked.

"Nothing" Meredith answered while she struggled to stop her laughter.

But when she heard him humming along with the song there was no force that could stop the fit of laughter that was about to take over her entered body. So when a hysterical laughter could be heard in the car Derek asked again.

"Okay seriously what is so funny that you can hardly breath?" Derek asked in amusement.

That laugh was defiantly the best sound he had heard his entire life. When he heard this woman laugh it made him smile to and that had never happened before. He had to know what she thought was so funny because would do anything to make her laugh like that again.

"It just… well never mind. It's stupid really" Meredith stammered after she caught her breath.

"No come on tell me… please" Derek said as he turned to look at her while they stopped at a red stop light.

"No really you don't want to know"

"You can't laugh like that and then not tell me what is so funny afterwards…"

Shit Meredith why couldn't you keep your mouth shut? Now you have to tell him that you think he has a crappy taste in music. Way to keep it cool!

"Well… it's just… I kind of hate well may by not hate or yah I do hate them" Meredith rambled.

Derek laughed at her rambling. He found it adorable. But he didn't get who "them" were.

"Who are them?" he asked in a amused voice.

Shit did a just ramble in front of a wary hot man that I want to have sex with? What the hell is my problem? Know he probably thinks that I am a completed lunatic… fantastic!

"Uhm The Clash" Meredith murmured.

"I'm sorry what did you say?" Derek asked.

"I hate The Clash! I think the suck big time so I thought that it was funny that you seemed to like them. And when you started to hum along I couldn't stop from laughing. I'm sorry…" Meredith blunted out.

OMG! Did I just say that? What the hell is wrong with you Meredith?! All you can do now is to wait and see how he reacts to your stupid outburst…

And to surprise Meredith Derek started to laugh.

"Well if The Clash suck big time" Derek said using her words "what do you suggest instead?"

Oh thank god, he's not mad or anything!

"Well there is Duran Duran to start with" Meredith mused.

"Okay now you can't be serious, can you!?" Derek asked amused with the situation.

"As a matter of a fact I am! What is wrong with Duran Duran if I may ask?" Meredith asked with a grin.

"That is a simple question really. Everything!" Derek answered as if it was obvious to everyone in the world.

"Okay you have a serious problem! Who doesn't like them?" Meredith laughed.

"If it means I have a problem if I don't like Duran Duran well then I can live with that" Derek laughed.

As Meredith saw her house coming up on the road she thought that it was probably a good idea to let him know since he didn't knew where she lived.

"I lived in the house over there" Meredith said pointing at the house.

"Okay" Derek answered as he pulled the car up the driveway.

When Derek turned of the ignition he waited for Meredith to make the first move.

"So we should go inside and we can talk more about thin in there" Meredith said hesitating.

"Sounds good" Derek smiled and got out off the car.


So this chapter turned out to be really long. Actually I think it is the longest in this story yet. But I just didn't know where to cut it without making it weird.

Okay just so you know I have nothing against The Clash or Duran Duran.

Anyways please be kind and leave a review. They really make me happy.
