"I can't believe you got us kicked out!" Meredith muttered under her breath. Her arms were crossed in front of her chest tightly as she slowly made contact with the cool New York air outside.

"Oh, this is my fault too?! Unbelievable! Un-fucking-believable!" Derek yelled raising his hands up for dramatic effect. He could feel her eyes burning two holes in his leather jacket.

"I can't believe you two! What the hell was that?! I'm banned! Banned! From my favorite ice cream shop! What the hell is going on with you two?!" Now it was Allison's turn to be mad. She not only had to spend half an hour watching her two best friends bicker, but as a result of the bickering, she was now no longer welcome at the little ice cream shop. She didn't understand what they could possibly being yelling at each other about! Pregnant, married couples were supposed to be happy, elated even. But somehow, in this stupid, twist of fate, not only were they not happy. They hated each other's guts, or so it seemed…

"I'm sorry, Allison." Meredith said sincerely. She truly was sorry about the whole banning incident. God knows Allison was probably embarrassed out of her wits sitting there watching the two of them have a screaming match. She didn't even know how it had all turned out this way. One minute she was supposed to meet her best friend for some delicious strawberry ice cream at Serendipity and the next minute she was having a screaming match with her husband. Well, technically ex-husband. Or at least, soon-to-be-ex-husband…

"No, no, no…No way are you getting out of this that easy. Sorry is not going to cut it. You are totally going to tell me what that was in there." Allison said as she walked in-between the pair, acting as a barrier of sorts as they shot daggers at each other.

"I-"

"Nothing. It's nothing. Derek and I just got into a little fight about…classes. Um…father-to-be classes. I wanted him to take it. And he said he would contemplate it. And then I got mad when he said he was just going to 'try'." Meredith explained quickly, putting air quotes around the word try. She bit her lips, hoping Allison would not catch on. She had never been the best liar, she had always been caught. She just prayed to God that Allison would accept the excuse and move on.

Derek looked confused as he mouthed the words 'father-to-be classes?' to Meredith. Meredith giggled, seeing Derek's confused reaction.

"Father-to-be classes? Seriously? Do you take me for an idiot? You guys so were not arguing about that." Allison said, easily catching Meredith's lie. Allison had known her best friend for years and she knew that when Meredith lies, she always bit her bottom lip. It was her tell. It made Allison smile remembering times when Meredith had planned surprise parties for her only to be foiled by that lip-biting. Of course, Allison never told her that she'd known of the party all along, or brought it to her knowledge of that very helpful habit. She liked to think of it as an advantage over her best friend.

"What? What are you talking about? Of course that's what it is!" Meredith lied, biting her bottom lip harder.

"Oh god! You bit your lip! We're screwed!" Derek exclaimed, throwing his hands up in the air. Meredith had never been a good liar. In fact, she was a horrible liar. He had always used it to his advantage. It was the lip-biting that gave her away. The soft biting of the bottom lip. He'd never told her, it was nice knowing about surprise parties ahead of time, or what she was going to plan for their anniversary. But now, the lip-biting was definitely turning out to be a disadvantage. Obviously Allison knew of the tall tell sign. Him and her used to secretly laugh about Meredith's inability to lie.

"What are you talking about?!" Meredith asked. She seemed out of the loop as both Allison and Derek began to burst out in laughter. Surely they were going insane! Muttering about lip-biting…

"You…are…a…horrible…liar!" Allison shouted between fits of laughter. Allison could remember the good ole days when Derek and her would laugh about Meredith's flaws. And the lip-biting was usually a primary topic of discussion. They all knew that if they needed to keep something a secret, they should NEVER tell Meredith. Although she did not directly give them away, it was the lip-biting that did them in.

"It's true, honey. You bite your lips every time you lie. Personally I find it adorable." Derek chuckled as Meredith scowled at his comments.

"I hate you both!" Meredith yelled, frustrated. Crossing her arm tighter in front of her chest, walking faster, hoping to get away.

"Hey, you're not getting away that easily! You are going to tell me why I'm banned from my favorite ice cream shop and you're going to tell me now!" Allison demanded as she caught up to Meredith who was now looking guiltily at Derek.

A/N: Sorry for taking so long to have this up...Just that this site went all crazy on me and wouldn't let me update! So now...Allison will find out? Or will she? Will Meredith lie again? (Lamely I might add) Or will she finally confess the truth? But what exactly is the truth? Ahhh...So many questions...Want them answered? Just REVIEW!!!!!
