This is how it used to be when they went on business trips. They'd have a key to one another's room, sneak in at night and they'd fall asleep tangled up in each other. Nick was the first to wake up first and didn't want to move, so he stayed there listening to her snore. He wanted it to always be like it was in that moment. He looked to see her hand on top of his as it rested on her abdomen. There it was, their little baby.
The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
"Morning." Phyllis said in a soft voice not wanting to move but knew she needed to.
You're barely waking
And I'm tangled up in you
Yeah
"Morning." Nick said back feeling her snuggle closer to him
"I love it here, watching the sunrise. It's so beautiful."
"Yeah it is. Are you up for a walk?"
"Yeah, why?"
"I want to show you something."
"Ok" Meredith responded following behind him.
I'm open, you're closed
Where I follow, you'll go
"You haven't smiled all morning."
"And…"
"And you usually smile in the morning that's all."
I worry I won't see your face
Light up again
"Yeah I do but that's after I have something to…" She got up and ran to bathroom and emptied whatever she'd had last night into the white porcelain bowl. Nick followed behind her and held her soft red hair back and gently rubbed her back.
Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
"Can you go out to my car and get the black bag in my back seat"
"Sure." He said and came back as quickly and he left.
"Thanks." She said with a little smile.
"So you have a carryon bag with you."
She nodded yes in responses as she brushed her teeth before putting the brush back in its case when she was finished.
"I began carrying it around when I started spending more time at Michael and Lauren's and whenever I went back home I would repack."
"So the morning sickness, how bad is it?"
"Well I was having morning, noon, and night sickness."
"Is it still bad?" Nick asked as they walked back into the room.
"Yes but I have a prescription for Zofran. It was getting pretty bad to where I wouldn't leave bed all day because I couldn't keep anything down, which is…"
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
I somehow find
You and I collide
"…why you were from work so long."
"Exactly" She said sitting down on the bed and eating some crackers.
"Wow…Derek this is… beautiful." Meredith said as they looked at all of Seattle from the view.
I'm quiet you know
"This is where I want to build the house."
"I would love it if we…you build the house here."
"Well I'm glad you want our house built here."
"What about building a house near the lake?"
"We can do that too. It can be our hide-away for when my sisters come and visit."
"You've been thinking about this for a while haven't you?"
"I have because I wanted to do it with you."
You make a first impression
I've found I'm scared to know I'm always on your mind
"Breakfast?"
"Sure, I don't have to be to the office until 12:30."
Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the stars refuse to shine
"So last night…"
"Last night was productive."
Out of the back you fall in time
I somehow find
You and I collide
"You told me you loved me."
"Nick a piece of me will always love you but don't make more out of it than it is."
Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
"Ok, I was just going to say that I love you too."
Out of the doubt that fills your mind
"You couldn't drop it could you?"
You finally find
You and I collide
"I'm just saying after everything we've gone through I love you. I know you probably don't want to hear it so I'll just stop while I'm ahead."
You finally find
You and I collide
"Thank you." She said looking away from his captivating eyes.
You finally find
You and I collide
