Meredith POV

"Berrieeees!" Galen squealed as I gave him the strawberries from my cake. We're here at a café nearby the hospital.

"If you still want some, you can have mine" Derek said.

"Weeeeeeee. Tenchu (Thank you)" Galen said and Derek chuckled while he shakes Galen's hair then smiled.

I starred at Derek. I can see his watery eyes. He is trying so hard for that tears not to fall but it failed him. I saw the tear escaped from his eyes.

He quickly wiped the tear and starred and smiled at Galen again.

"Derek, I'm sorry" I said with a sad tone.

"No, I'm sorry Meredith" He said while he wipes the tears coming down from her eyes.

He gave me weak smile.

"I processed our divorce papers after our last conversation. I realized a lot of things back then, but It's too late because you we're gone."

I'm sorry

"I wanted to find you. I asked everyone, but it seems like you just left without anyone knowing where you could be."

I'm sorry.

"I waited for you to come back" He said with a weak smile.

"Im sorry" That is all I can say. I was hurt that he left me and chose Addison that's why I immediately decided to go away.

I hold his hand and press it softly.

He smiled at me and he caress my hand using his thumb.

Sadness. I can still see sadness in his eyes.

Sadness because he didn't saw his son grow.

Sadness because he wasn't part of his son's life until now.

"Where are you two staying at the moment?" He said.

"At a hotel. I didn't have the time to fix my house and I'm starting my first day tomorrow"

"Can I stay for the night?"

Of course. I will make it up to him. Perhaps, he didn't saw his son for almost 2 years.

"Of course" I retorted and he gave his famous McDreamy smile.

I smile at the scene, our hands are intertwined as we look at Galen, our son.

Derek POV

We arrived at the hotel Meredith and Galen where staying. I opened the passenger door for Meredith.

"Thank you"Meredith said I smiled at her as I reached for her hands to help her get out of the car.

"I'll get Galen" I said with a smile and I made my way to open the door car and get Galen from his car seat. He was sleeping so I carried him while I caress his back for him not to wake up.

We arrived at their unit. Meredith opened the door and I made my way to the bedroom to put Galen in the bed. I tucked him and put some pillows on his side but he was awakened.

"Mommyyy" Galen said as he saw me, he was about to cry.

"I'm here baby" Meredith chuckled as she made her way to sit down in the bed close to Galen and started to caress his cheek.

She grabbed my hand and motioned me to go to the other side of the bed.

I made my way to the other side and seat beside Galen.

"Galen do you want to meet daddy?" Meredith said. My eyes are wide open when I heard what she said.

"Yeeeeesh mommyyy! I've been pweying (praying) for my daddy evewy day!"

I was nervous, I don't know what to tell him.

I panicked.

Meredith hold my hand and smiled at me.

I got it.

I calmed down.

"Hey Galen, My name is Derek Shepherd" I said nervously and smiled at him.

My heart started to beat faster.

What if he doesn't like me?

"Me, Shepherd! Galen Christopher Shepherd!" Galen said and Meredith chuckled.

"Yes baby, you have the same last name because he's your daddy" Meredith said as she smiled at Galen and looked at me.

My heart calmed down.

"You my daddddyyyy? Weeeeee" Galen squealed. As he jumped into my lap and hugged me.

"I mish you daddy, I love you" Galen added.

He loved me.

He missed me.

He accepted me.

I smiled as I rest my head at Galen's shoulder while hugging him.

I kissed his forehead.

I sighed with relief.

I saw Meredith with tears but she's smiling at the scene.

I reached out my hand and I got her to join the hug.

I love this feeling.

Resting in my chest is Meredith, the woman I love and Galen, our son.

My life is finally complete.
