Ok, another update! Sorry it took so long, my internet went dead for a couple of days. The song is 'Fallin' by alicia keys, i think ;
Enjoy! Aiden belongs to me, the rest to Shonda Rhimes
Derek searched frantically for Meredith, but to no avail. He finally gave up, figuring that she had gone home. He would surely catch her tomorrow, somewhere where she couldn't escape him, somewhere like the elevator. Because he was on call, he decided that he should try to get some rest. He opened the door to the on-call room that he an Meredith left not more than an hour ago. And, to his surprise, there she was, laying perfectly in another man's arms. Aiden's arm was wrapped smugly around her small frame, as Meredith's face was buried into his chest. He is devastated; finally when he thinks he might be able to make it up to her, and try to do something right, he is struck down with a blow like this. He suddenly realized how in love he actually was with her, and, seeing her happy put him at rest. He wouldn't ruin this, he wouldn't ruin her life for his own selfish reasons, it just wouldn't be right. Letting out a deep breath filled with sorrow and regret, he stepped out of the room, closing the door quietly so that he wouldn't wake Meredith.
I
keep on fallin' in
And
out of love with you
Sometimes
I love you
Sometimes
you make me blue
Sometimes
I feel good
At
times I feel used
Loving
you darling
Makes
me so confused
As he exited the room, Derek's pager went off signaling a 911. He also heard Meredith's and Aiden's pagers, and then shuffling within the on call room. He stopped, looking back as Meredith launched out of the room. She stopped dead in her tracks as Derek stared at her, his eyes filled with sorrow and remorse. Aiden followed quickly after her, practically running into Meredith's stopped body. He looked up, realizing why Meredith was frozen. He glared at Derek, taking Meredith by the arm and leading her around him. He only stood there, his back now facing the two as they ran off. She couldn't help but look behind her to see Derek's response to what had just happened; she remembered when she visited the hospital to see Derek, they would sneek into a nearby on call room and make love before he had to rush off. Meredith couldn't help but wonder if Derek had thought thats what her and Aiden where doing, and frankly, she didn't want him to.
When they arrived in the pitt, there was many people being wheeled into the hospital, most of them in critical condition. Aiden kissed Meredith on the head quickly, "I have to go," he explained; she nodded in response as he ran off. Bailey entered the scene, screaming orders to evryone there, although at the time Meredith was the only intern present.
I
keep on fallin' in and out of love with you
I
never loved someone the way that I love you
"Grey, your with Dr. Shephard, go!" She exclaimed, not even waiting for a response as she turned around when the other interns entered. She didn't really have the time, or the guts to stand up, so she ran to OR3 where Derek was scrubbing in. She stopped when she saw him; she really needed to stop doing that. He looked up from the sink, staring softly into her eyes. He cocked his head, but in a different way than Aiden always did; this made her heart melt, her stomach drop, and her knees weak, but she couldn't help it; Derek had always done that for her.
Oh
oh oh I never felt this way
How
do you give me so much pleasure
And
cause me so much pain
Just
when I think
I've
taken more than would a fool
I
start fallin'
Back
in love with you
She snapped out of it quickly, rushing next to him to wash her hands thoroughly. Placing his hands at the edge of the sink, he leaned into it as he watched her hands intently. She watched her hands as well, knowing perfectly well that his eyes were on her. After completely cleaning them, she decided to do it again, washing her hands roughly. Derek stood up straight, walking toward her until his chest was leaning slightly on her shoulder. At this point, she began to scrub harder and harder because she was nervous. He took in her familiar scent, smiling as he did so, placing one hand on the both of hers, "Not so rough," he whispered softly into her ear, "They are clean, I promise."
She turned around swiftly, meeting him face to face for the first time in a year. His smile calmed her, and she realized why she had been with him for so long. It took every fiber in her body not to throw her arms around him and cry, apologizing for leaving and not trying to make it work. She wanted to kiss him all over, and he do the same for her, but she knew she couldn't. He let a small chuckle escape his lips, placing a stray bundle of hair behind her ear, "Just as beautiful as ever," he intended to say more to himself, but noticed that he forced Meredith's blood to rush to her face, causing her to blush.

They entered the surgery, Derek flirting with Meredith the entire time; more with his eyes than his words. It was long and hard, but it ended as a sucsess. As everything was being finished and sewed up, Meredith saw Derek look up to the observing room; she noticed a smile under his mask as he threw his hands in the air. Looking up, she saw none other than Preston standing there, smiling back down at the two. They both left the room to scrub out, Derek still wearing a goofy smile. Nervously, Meredith looked from her hands to Dere, "You know Preston?" She asked quietly, almost nonchalantly.
His smile carried over to his glances at Meredith; he was overly ecstatic that she had said anything even remotly nice to him; or rather, not mean to him. He leaned over, nudging her with his shoulder, causing her to giggle, "Yeah, do you?" She only turned to smile at him as he handed her paper tawels to dry her hands off.
