"You never told me you were good with kids." Meredith said, smiling, from the door frame.
I turned around, surprised, to look at the beautiful girl. "What're you doing up here?"
"She's my patient." She said pointing to Elizabeth and pushing herself off the doorway and walking towards them.
"For what?" He asked alarmed.
"Jus a thorough exam, Bailey said she was an important patient."
"Bailey knows her…?" He asked confused.
"Addison sent her here for some reason…" She said starring at Elizabeth. "Is that why you're here? I don't think I missed anything..."
"Just a quick test." He said starring down at the little girl.
"Oh, did you need help?" She asked eager to work more with neuro.
"Nope, I can do this. You go get ready to leave." He said, hoping he wouldn't have to disappoint her.
"Oh, alright then." She said deciding to ignore whatever problem was going on. "I'll see you soon." Meredith walked towards Derek and kissed him lightly on the lips, Kassandra resting in between them.
"Sounds good." He said a bit distracted. As Meredith was walking out of the room he though of something, "Oh Mere, can you actually stay a minute? I need to go talk to a nurse for a moment.
"Alright." She said walking back into the room to grab the sleeping girl.
Holding the baby, Meredith sat down in the rocking chair. "What's gotten into him?" She asked Elizabeth.
Derek stopped at the door, watching Meredith with the baby. He was in awe at how lovely Meredith looked with Elizabeth. They looked so natural, and Elizabeth had made Meredith so happy today…maybe things would work out. Derek could only hope.
