It had been another two weeks since the accident and time seemed to be going so slowly. The days dragged on and the tears continued to fall. Today was the day, Meredith had her first appointment with the OB/GYN. Her choice of OB/GYN came across strange for a lot of people but Addison Montgomery was the best and even after all that they had been through Meredith had always had looked up to her in some way. It sounds weird, right? The dirty mistress looks up to the wife of the man she was a mistress to after she too the man away from her. Weird.
Alex still hasn't woken up despite Meredith's pleads. It seemed like over the last month… Other hospital staff was losing hope for his return back from the coma. Meredith refused to give up hope as did her friends but sometimes Meredith wondered if it was just because they didn't want her to get more upset.

The hospital looked as it did everyday she walked through the main entrance. They all gave her the same sympathetic looks they had been since the accident. She stopped caring about the pity they took on her. She walked to the elevator and silently waited for it. The door opened and there stood Derek Shepherd. They hadn't talked much in the last few months ever since he cheated on her and they broke up. She didn't even try to give him the cold glare she had grown accustomed to giving him every time she saw him. He gave her a little nod acknowledging her presence as she stood in the back. She barely even looked at him in return. After a few moments of silence, the door closed. They stood silent for a minute longer before he turned to her.
"Are we EVER going to be able to talk?" She just shrugged without looking at him. She was barely listening. She had a lot on her mind. Like the fact that the man she loves is in a coma, she's pregnant with his baby, she's getting interns tomorrow, and stuff like that. "Please Mere. I miss you. I want to be with you."
"Not my problem," She said coldly still not looking at him.
"Meredith, I said I was sorry. It was a mistake… a big mistake… the biggest mistake I made."
"A lot has changed," She said giving him the cold glare in the eye telling him to shut the hell up. But of course luck was not on her side.
"What? Kerev?" Derek said. "He's in a coma, Mere. Shouldn't you move on?"
As soon as those words left his mouth, he wished he could take them back. She looked up at him. Fire burning in her eyes as they filled with tears. She took a slap forward so she was a foot from his and smacked him across the face.
"Go to hell, Derek," She said. "I love Alex. Not you. You fucked up. Move on. I've moved on…" The doors started to open. "Leave me alone." She stormed out of the elevator.

Addison was standing at the nurses' station when Meredith walked up. She was still furious and Addison could tell. Meredith's eyes were still gleaming with tears but her cheeks were flushed with anger.
"Meredith? What's wrong?" Addison said looking at the younger woman as she put away the chart.
"I'm ready for the appointment when you are," Meredith said with a sigh.
Addison led her to a room not far away.
"Go ahead and lay down on the bed," Addison ordered kindly. Meredith did as she was told as Addison got ready for the ultrasound she would be performing on her. "How far along do you think you are?"
"I'm not sure. At least about a month of so." Meredith answered still trying to cool off after what Derek had said.
"This might be a little cold," Addison warned as she squirted some gel onto her stomach. "So are you going to tell me what happened? Cause I want to be friends Meredith." She said as she moved the paddle around on Meredith's stomach. Meredith watched the screen and her face softened as Addison pointed to it. The little baby growing in her stomach. "There it is.." There was a long pause. "There they are."
"What do you mean they?" Meredith said.
"You're having twins," Addison said.
"Oh my god." Meredith mumbled in shock.
