We were in New York City! I'm so excited. I have been waiting so long for this and finally it has come true. We were on our way to look at apartments around NYU. With school just getting out there are a lot of apartments that have just gone up for sale.

"Ok so this first one is the cheapest one I'll be showing you today. It is priced at $825/month. It has two bedrooms, one bathroom, wood floors, and it is alittle outdated, but it is right across from NYU." Says our realtor.

We look around and we just weren't feeling it. We really wanted something updated. So we go to our next apartment. It is $1,250. It is alittle more updated then the last one. But it was small.

Finally at the last one we knew it was the right one.

"Ok so this one is in a new building that just went up. It has two bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, hardwood floors, fireplace, balcony, and is all updated. It is pricey at $2,800, but I think you will like this one."

She let's us go inside by ourselves to look around.

"Oh my god Derek this is gorgeous."

"It is perfect for us, but I don't know about the price."

"Well We have a pretty good chunk of money from selling my mothers house and we have a good savings, plus with all of my scholarships I got I don't have any college expenses plus I still will be getting money from my mom every month so we can do this."

"Yeah but I don't want to put this all on you though."

"It is ok what is yours is mine and what is mine is yours. We are in this together."

"So you really love it?"

"Yes I do so much and I want to start our lives together here."

"Okay."

"Okay?"

"Okay let's do this then."

"Thank you. I love you so much."

One week later

"It feels nice being here." Says Derek as we are cuddling on our matress by the fireplace with chinese food.

"It does. I have been waiting for this moment all year and I'm so glad it is finally real."

"You know what would make it even better?" Says Derek sitting up.

"No what?"

He gets onto one knee and says, "Meredith ever since that day junior year I knew you were going to change my life. You have changed my life so much and I want you to change it even more by becoming my wife, so Meredith will you marry me?"

"Oh my god!"

A/N Sorry short chapter and cliffhanger but I will have another update up probably Friday that is longer and gives you the answer.
