Meredith was sleeping in the hospital bed with derek siting in the chair next still holding her hand. The door slamed open to reviel Ellis looking very angery. Derek stood up when he saw Ellis and still held on to Merediths hand who was now awake.
"How dare do you not call me" She said looking towards Meredith. "Do you know how embarasing it is to get a call from Richard telling me that my own daughter was raped and he was wondering why I wasn't with her? Do you?" She yelled at meredith who then started to cry. "Why didn't you call me?"
Meredith let go of his hand and covered her eyes. So Derek started to talk in a stern voice "Please don't yell at her she has been asleep so she couldn't have called you. I am very sorry that I didn't call you but I was a little busy trying to help Meredith."
"Well I am her mother I should be the one who is there to take care of her not you. I am the one who needs to help her not you the one who got her into this mess."
"Shut up Ellis you are no more a mother to me than the nurse out in the hall way." Meredith yelled still with tears in her eyes. "And this is not his fault. You pushed me in to this just as much as you did so you just shut the hell up." she said covering her eyes back up. Ellis just had a stuned look on her face from the way her daughter had spoken to her.
"Your coming home now." She took the cloths from the dresser and put them in the bags. "I have already filled out your discharge papers so lets go." Derek saw how hurt she was emotionaly and physically as she started to get out of the bed. Ellis was to busy to notice so Derek helped her out. She stood as Ellis turned around "your work here is done Derek. I want you gone by the time I get done packing Merediths things from the bathroom" She left and Derek turned towards Meredith.
Derek lifted her chin to look in his eyes "I love you. Your mother is not going to change that fact. Now I have to go but I will call you tonight. Ok?" He kissed her lightly on the lips but she pulled away quickly and he saw tears start to well up. "I love you" He pulled her into a hug and put his head on top of hers. Derek heard Ellis starting to finish up in the bathroom. He pulled away and looked at her one last time.
Derek turned towards the door when he heard her say "I love you too.Thanks"
"Anytime" he made a kiss face and left the room.
