Perfect For Her

The next morning Derek woke up early. He tried to be as silent as possible, when he was leaving the bedroom he heard Meredith stir.

"Morning beautiful!" He said.

"What are you doing up so early?" She asked.

"I have a surgery, i didn't want to wake you up." He said and kissed her.

"It's alright, are you leaving already?" She asked.

"Yeah, i have to go. I'll see you for lunch okay?"

"Ok, love you." She smiled

"Love you too. Bye"

He left and let a deep breath flow. He had never been too good at hiding surprises and there was no way he could take a chance on letting Mer suspect anything.

Thankfully, the Chief and Mark would help cover him while he was ring shopping.

He drove downtown and arrived around 8 am. It was still a little early for some jewelries to open, so he got a cup of coffee and started to flip through some ring catalogs, he like a couple of them.

Finally the stores opened. So he started by the nearest one on the left aisle of the mall.

"Good morning sir, are you looking for anything in particular?" A young man asked him.

"Good morning, yes I'm looking for an engagement ring." Derek said, he couldn't avoid grinning because only the idea of thinking about Mer saying yes and marrying him made his head and heart spin.

"Who is the lucky lady may i ask?" The young man said.

"Her name is Meredith, oh i have a picture of her here." He said taking a photo of him and Mer in the park out of his wallet.

"Oh, she's very beautiful sir."

"Yeah she is gorgeous." Derek smiled.

"Ok, so what kind of ring are you looking for?"

"I want something delicate and elegant, nothing too big or whatever exaggerated, that's not her, something feminine princess like." He said giggling after he realized how cliché that sounded.

"Ok sir, i think i have exactly what you're looking for."

"Mhmm, i like this one. May i see this one as well please?" Derek asked taking a look at the rings.

Meanwhile, Meredith arrived to the hospital and left Laura at day-care.

"Hey! Where's Laura?"

Cristina asked.

"I already dropped her off at day-care and Derek had a surgery earlier." Meredith answered.

"Morning everyone. Ok let's go check on some patients." Bailey said entering the changing room.

She leaded them to the patients room and assigned a patient to each of them, Cristina had a case in peeds, Meredith had a cardio surgery and the rest were between trauma and oncology.

Derek had visited a couple of jewelries but ended up going back to the first one, he had loved a ring that had beautifully shaped diamond in the

middle, with a couple of details, very delicate and gorgeous. "This one is perfect for her." He said smiling.

"Exquisite choice sir. I'm sure she'll love it."

"Thank you very much for your help."

"You're welcome. Good luck with Meredith!" The young man said.

Derek arrived to the hospital and quickly pulled on his scrubs and went to the cafeteria to meet Meredith.

"Hey! There you are! I was looking for you. Mark told me you were still busy on surgery. How did it go?" She asked.

"It went great, perfect." Derek said.

"Wow really? Cause the Chief told me it was a craniopharyngioma." She said.

"Yeah it was tough, but in spite of all the complications you could imagine it went really great." He said and stared at her smiling.

"That's good. What? Why are you looking at me like that." She said.

"Nothing, it's just that you're so beautiful." He replied and pulled off his dreamy look.

"Thank you." She said and smiled back.

They finished lunch and headed to day-care for a moment to check on Laura.

Later on, they went back to the ER where they were both paged.

"Grey! I need you with me!" Callie said.

"Shepherd we have head trauma over here! the Chief called.

They both ran into the direction they were called to.

Meredith worked with Callie on a teenager who had broken ribs and limbs bones after an awful fall while skating.

"Here's the chart, help me take him to get some x-rays and CT exams." Callie said.

"Ok. Hi Charlie I'm Dr. Meredith Grey, I'll take you to run some tests on you so we can fix your injuries ok?" She said.

"Ok, thank you."

She left and took the boy to the x-ray room.

Meanwhile, Derek was examining a patient when Mark and the Chief approached him.

"Hey! How did it go? Did tou get te ring?" They both asked.

"It went great, yeah i got it. She's not around right?"

"No, she just took a kid for some x-rays." Mark assured.

"Look." Derek said taking out the black box from his pocket letting the gorgeous ring shine.

"It's beautiful." The Chief said.

"I like it! She'll love it." Mark said.

"Oh, by the way, thank you for covering me, and Mark, craniopharyngioma? Seriously?!" Derek laughed.

"I couldn't think of anything else haha, but at least she bought it."Mark said.

"She totally did." Derek stated and smiled.

The rest of the afternoon went by smoothly. Meredith scrubbed in with Callie to Charlie's surgery and Derek did ended up performing a small procedure.

They ran into each other at the nurses' station.

"Hey, you ready to go home?" He asked.

"Almost, i've just gotta check on a kid i operated before leaving, to make sure he's doing fine."

"Ok, i'll wait for you outside the room." Derek said.

"Hey Charlie, how are you feeling?" Meredith asked.

"Much better, thank you for helping me." He said.

"You're welcome, Dr. Torres did an amazing job with your leg. You just have to do some physical therapy and be very careful from now on." She said.

"I will, thank you Dr. Grey."

"You're welcome Charlie, sleep well." She said and left the room, the kid waved back and smiled.

"Ok, let's go home." She said

Derek smiled at her. He loved how warm and nice Meredith was to everyone, he could not wait to pop up the ring.

"Tomorrow you have the afternoon off right?" Derek asked.

"Yeah!" She said happy.

"Why don't we do something?" He suggested.

"You got the afternoon off too?" She said smiling.

"Yeah i do" he grinned.

"Ok, what are we going to do?" She asked.

"Mhm i don't know, something special and nice." He winked.

"Ok!" She said grinning.

They took Laura inside, she had fallen fast asleep in the car. Meredith woke her up to feed her.

After feeding her and making her walk around the house they went to tuck her in to bed. Meredith read her a book until she fell back asleep.

"Good night sweet pea." She said

"Night night mommy" Laura replied making Meredith cry of excitement and Derek melt at the precious scene.

Tomorrow could not come fast enough. It was going to be perfect.
