It's almost Christmas but my readers are getting their gift early. Gift because you guys have been asking this since I posted the first chapter. The Reveal, and you guys have been patient and you have waited and I won't keep you waiting for long now. On with the chapter…..
Meredith Grey opened her eyes to see her person Christina standing by her side. "Oh my God" said Christina "Meredith you're awake.". Meredith couldn't remember what had happened the only thing that she did know was that her head hurt. "What….what happened?" asked Meredith as she tried to sit upright. "Meredith, you were shot." said Christina "I leave you alone for a few hours… and this is what you get yourself into?". The memories came back to her but now she wished they hadn't. She wished they would just get repressed and she couldn't remember. But she remembered it, every second of it, and it was horrible. She could remember screams, screams of little kids.
"I remember screams of little children." said Meredith with concern "Are they all right ?". Seeing stuff like somebody getting shot could really just traumatize a kid. "They might have just saved you." said Christina "Meredith….who...who did this ? Was it McDreamy ? You both weren't really very much in love when you fought in the hallway.". Derek….Meredith needed to talk to him. She was going to come clean, she had to. "No, Derek, did nothing like that." said Meredith, "Where is he, I need to talk with him.".
Christina heard Meredith and rolled her eyes. She was worried sick for Meredith and now the first thing she asks after waking up is if she can run back into the arms of her McDreamy. As they were talking about McDreamy, Derek along with a talk dark-haired woman walked in the room. As he walked into the room, he stopped for a second. Meredith looked up to see Derek. It was time to come clean. They both looked at each other, deep into the eyes. They both loved each other deep down, no matter how much they fought. They were in this together.
"Real beautiful, okay." said Detective Dawson "Now let's get to work." She looked at Christina and said "Ma'am I have to ask you to leave the room.". Christina felt hurt at hearing this. "I am practically her family." said Christina. Detective Dawson was reaching the end of her rope. She was a no nonsense kind of person. And she wanted to go back to her boys as soon as she could. "Woman, I don't care if you raised her." said Detective Dawson in a harsh tone "GET OUT!… please."
Christina got out of the room in a bad mood, she was really sulking over what had happened. In the corner of her eye, she could see the children who brought Meredith and Alex was talking to them. "What's up, Evil Spawn." said Christina as she went towards him. "Evil Spawn ?" said Carrie in her little voice. "It's just a nickname kiddo." said Christina in a harsh voice. "Weird nickname." said Carrie.
" Look your friend is hurt, I get that." said Matt "But don't you agree that our Halloween got ruined?". "Boo-hoo Halloween is ruined." said Christina sarcastically " Get over it already.". "At least now I have real blood on my dress. " said Carrie "Makes me look like a real Carrie.". Emily struck her on the back of the head lightly and said "Carrie, that's actually really insensitive.".
"What do you want ?" asked Christina, and then seeing the silence of the kids offered to call their family. As it turned out they all lived on the same street as Meredith and Emily's parents were both doctors. Christina stole a glimpse of her friend talking to the detective with Derek holding her hand. Christina just wished that Meredith wouldn't forget her.
"Ma'am you have suffered traumatic experience but you have to help us help you." said Detective Dawson. Meredith nodded. She could feel Derek staring at her, his blue eyes looking at her. She turned towards Detective Dawson who was waiting eagerly for a statement. "I have a stalker." said Meredith. She could feel the tension in the air.
"His name is Phil. I got him fired because he tried to kiss me in the elevator. He has been sending me texts ever since. And he ...he followed me home. I took a gun in my defence and...we got into kind of a struggle, so, he accidently fired the gun and he went away.". Detective Dawson nodded as if it was just another day at the office. "We will need your phone." said Detective Dawson. Meredith nodded.
"Would you mind giving us a moment ?" asked Derek. Detective Dawson nodded and went away. Derek's expression was really mixed and Meredith was not able to read into it.
"You have a stalker ?" said Derek "You could have said something. Told me the truth. You know I love you Meredith.". "We were going through rough time Derek. " said Meredith "And I didn't know if you would stay by my side...". Derek interrupted her and said "Meredith, I took a vow. I will never leave you and in times like this, I am on your side. We are in this together." Derek slid his hand in Meredith's as they both looked at each other. Tomorrow is a new day and no one knows what will happen next. But they were together in the moment and they both loved each other. That was all that mattered right now.
I wish you liked it. I softened the blow of course. Also, I have to say right now that I am not sure about 'The Christmas Gift'. So, I am thinking of deleting it and I am writing another Christmas story. Look out for that and look out for the updates on this and 'The Wrong Timing'. I am really excited for Christmas. And I want you all to give me reviews. At least 6. Come on, show me how you feel.
