Derek stood outside the bar for what seemed like forever. He kept looking at the picture of his little girl. Derek never thought that he would have a child much less with Meredith. Everything that has come about is now running thru his mind.
Meredith
Emma
Meredith bought his old land
The house that Meredith built on his old land
Just thinking about how Meredith was before he left, he would never have guessed that she was the one that would do everything that he had pictured for them. Meredith made a family, but the only thing missing was him.
Derek knew that after how he had treated Meredith in the bar that he was on her 'shit list' and would need to do a lot of graveling to get back into her good graces. Now that Derek knew of Emma he had a lot to think about in the ways of his life. Less than a year ago he backed up and moved in hopes to never return. But now he had a reason, it's just getting to get Meredith to let him back in that will be his problem. He couldn't blame Meredith for any of this. He was the one to leave. He was the one to disconnect himself from everyone in Seattle so he couldn't be found.
Now he had to fix it.
