After the wedding, Meredith and Derek both had two weeks off, which made them a very lucky pair of recently married surgeons. They had decided upon Martinique for their honeymoon, for the seclusion, sunshine, heat, and resorts. The first week had been spent with Meredith feeling queasy again, much like she had the day of the wedding. However, there had been no vomiting, so she chalked it up to the abundance of sunshine, which she certainly wasn't used to. As a doctor, however, she knew the signs…she was just too afraid to have her suspicions confirmed.

On the first day of the second week, Derek suddenly disappeared for 45 minutes, without mentioning where he was going. When he returned, it was to find Meredith with her head practically in the toilet, clutching it for dear life and throwing up the contents of her stomach for the past few days. He grabbed a washcloth from the stack of clean towels, soaked it in cold water, and caught her in his arms when she leaned back. Wiping the cold, wet cloth over her clammy face and neck, he pressed a kiss to her forehead, smoothing her hair from her face.

"Meredith, darling…I brought you a pregnancy test."

Her breath caught in her throat and tears welled up in her eyes. So he suspected the same thing. The smile on his face, however, told her that if it was a positive test, everything would be alright. They would live their lives and prepare to be parents. Taking a deep breath, she struggled to sit up, as he reached for the plastic bag containing the test. Pulling it out of the bag, he handed it to her as he stood up, leaving the bathroom. She understood that she was to take the test, and see if she were pregnant. Upon opening the box and doing a quick scan of the directions, she peed on the stick, set the test on the bathroom sink, and left the bathroom. She picked up her watch and set the timer on the test for five minutes, walking to the bed and sinking into Derek's arms. In five minutes, they would know the results that would determine the rest of their lives.

She jumped slightly when the timer went off, having zoned out. She wanted to look at the test. She wanted to be the one to tell Derek the news that would potentially make him even happier than they already were. She pushed herself off the bed and walked into the bathroom, biting her lip out of nervousness. She picked up the test with a tissue and examined it, as Derek struggled to read her expression. After a moment of this, his irritation grew.

"Well, Mere, what does it say!?"

She snapped out of her daze, her gray eyes showing a light he had yet to see since she had been so ill.

"It's blue, Derek."
