Meredith stood head resting on Mark's shoulder as they waited for his family.

One of Marks arms was wrapped around her shoulder and she held onto his hand, while the other hand securely rested on her abdomen.

After their morning romp session they had managed to eat some pancakes before heading to the airport.

"Tonight" Meredith spoke quietly. "We should all go out for tea, or have it at home."

"Whose we?" he asked.

"Greg, Lisa and Wilson, Plus Katie, Pete and Addie. I also think the Seattle Family as well as your New York family." Meredith suggested.

"And Derek?"

"If you want."

"You want it at our place?" he asked.

"Of course, i mean it's beautiful weather. We can have it inside or outside. I mean there's kids, and the yard and house is big enough." Meredith rambled.

Mark chuckled as he dipped his head to capture her lips. "It's a great idea Mer."


Meredith kissed him one more time before resting her head back on Marks shoulder.

Mark leaned against the rail content.

"There he is." Meredith and Mark heard Kathleen exclaim.

They both looked up to see Kathleen and David heading towards them followed by Nancy, Stephen, Marissa, Dustin, Natalie and Chris. Mom trailed behind with a school of kids.

They swarmed around the couple quickly greeting them. Meredith had tried to conceal her bump, but she was finding it a little hard as it was too warm for a sweater.

If the others had noticed they were yet to say anything.

Meredith and Mark organised a cart for the entire luggage and they all made their way to their cars, as they had made sure to hire 4 of them.

"You boys know the way to our place. We'll meet you there soon. We just have to pick up Katie on the way home." Mark told them as he gave the girls a quick kiss before helping Meredith into his car.

Driving in the car Meredith fiddled with the radio. She was hoping to find a station with a good song. Suddenly she hears it and leans back smiling with content.


A fire burns
water comes
you cool me down
you are warm and bright
you know you are so good for me
with your child's eyes
you are more than you seem
you see in to space
i see in your face
the places you've been
the things you have learned
they sit with you so beautifully

Mark looked over at Meredith. He loved how relaxed she looked and how she seemed to have the pregnant glow that everyone seemed to rave about.

Meredith's hand sat comfortably on her stomach. She was thinking about how true the words were in relation to Mark.


You know there's no need to hideaway


you know i tell the truth
we are just the same
i can feel everything you do
hear everything you say
even when you're miles away
coz i am me the universe and you

Mark reached and took Meredith's free hand.

You are the stars burning bright
making holes in the night
we are building bridges

Meredith looked over at Mark, she squeezed his hand. She found that she was zoning out. Her thoughts wandered from the moments she spent talking with Mark. The nights he held her in his arms. The love that they shared. Leading to the future ahead of them and the family that they are starting.

I am me the universe and you

As the song finished Meredith let out a sigh.

"Love you Mer." Mark spoke as he watched her come out of her thoughts.

"You too." she replied as she squeezed his hand beofer slipping back into her thoughts.
