Derek sat back in the chair in the corner of the study. Mark had called him several days back, and he had been meaning to return his call. There never seemed to be time to do anything. He was too busy following Meredith around. Not that he had anything he would rather be doing. He looked at his watch and dialed the phone.
"Yep..." Mark muttered into the phone as he answered.
"Hey... It's Derek." Derek said quickly as he laid his head back.
"Oh, hey man. How's it going?" He asked happily.
"Good. It's going great." Derek answered as he grabbed a magazine from the table and flipped it open.
"So what's been going on in Italy?" Mark asked quickly.
"Oh... We just came back from the riviera. Meredith and I." Derek said with a smile, knowing Mark would be jealous.
"No shit? Man, I knew I should have taken that job. How long were you there?" Mark asked.
"Oh, it was over a month. Right on the beach. Man, you really don't know..." Derek joked with a laugh.
"You lucky bastard." Mark muttered with a chuckle. "So how has it been... Did you do it?"
"Did I do what?" Derek asked quickly.
"Did you fuck her? Did you fuck Meredith yet?" Mark asked with a laugh. He listened to Derek's silence. "Holy shit! You did. You fucked her." Mark said in shock. "I- Wow."
"Why are you so shocked?" Derek asked simply.
Mark was his best friend. They had shared every secret and every experience in their lives. It wasn't odd that he was telling him this. He trusted Mark Sloan with his life. He was like a brother. He had been there through the roughest times of his life. This was nothing.
"Man... You are going to get your dick cut off. Sleeping with the boss's daughter. That is definitely a big no-no. I can't believe you'd be so stupid." Mark told Derek frankly.
"What!" Derek returned in shock. "You told me to! You encouraged me. You told me if you were me, that you would." Derek said quickly.
"I never thought you'd have the balls to do it! Damn, Der... You are playing with fire. I hope you only did it once. Once is a mistake. Once you can look past." Mark pointed out with concern. He listened to the silence again. "Oh shit... How many times?"
"Uh... I don't know. Um... Pretty much daily. A few times a day." Derek said with a big smile.
"Shit... You aren't kidding... You're an idiot. But that doesn't change the fact that I'm jealous. So... How is she?" Mark questioned.
"I am not talking about this with you." Derek told him frankly.
"You like her." Mark said quickly. "You are pathetic. You like her."
"I do. But she's- I do like her. I love her. She's just a little difficult. She can be a little pushy. And little-" Derek went on.
"Did you- Did you just say you love her?" Mark asked in shock. "Oh man... You did it. You can't love her. She's Meredith Grey. You can't- You are sabotaging yourself. You really did it..."
"Did what?" Derek asked with a sigh.
"You put your dick in some poisonous pussy." Mark said with a chuckle. "Enjoy that while it lasts. Or until you dick falls off."
"You're an ass..." Derek said as he looked up, seeing Meredith standing there. "And I have to go."
"Happy rotting." Mark said as he hung up the phone.
Derek looked up at Meredith with a smile. What did Mark know. He had no idea. He didn't know Meredith. He knew nothing. Meredith was special. Meredith was important to him. And he didn't care what he was getting himself into. He was already there. And he wasn't going anywhere.
"Hey..." Meredith said with a smile as Derek stood up and walked towards her.
"Hey. I was talking to Mark." Derek explained as he looked into her green eyes.
"Oh. Your best friend." Meredith said with a nod. "Um... Sofia needs you to help Tony move something. She is on a crazy cleaning kick. So watch out." Meredith told him as they walked through the main entrance and into the dining room.
"You need me?" Derek said with a smirk as he looked at the little italian woman.
"I do. This buffet needs to be moved. Carefully! It's over two-hundred years old. Handle it like you would a woman." Sofia warned them.
"Don't tell Tony that! He'll drop it." Meredith returned with a giggle.
"Funny, Meri... I'll have you know, I am very gentle with the ladies." Tony said with a smile.
"Let's just get this thing moved." Derek grumbled as he bent down.
Meredith watched Derek move the buffet. She couldn't help but study his strong arms. She knew what was underneath those clothes. His perfect pectoral muscles. That ass. The more she looked at him, the more she felt the fire between her legs begin to burn. She wanted him. She needed him.
Derek glanced over at Meredith. She was wearing a pair of shorts. They were just a little too short. Not for him. But definitely too short for anyone else to be looking at her in. He could see just a hint of cleavage peeking out from her top. Her tongue ran over her lips as she looked into his eyes. He could feel his cock growing hard. He needed her. And he needed her now.
"I have to-" Derek started as he walked away. "If you need me, I'll be-" He stammered as she rushed off and upstairs.
"What was that about?" Tony asked as he glanced over.
"I don't know. He was on the phone earlier. Maybe his sister." She said with a shrug.
Meredith knew what it was. She could see his cock getting rock hard. She could see the need in his eyes. She was teasing him. Not purposely, but she was. And he had to go before he shot a creamy load into his jeans. She did that to him. She gave him wet dreams. She made him uncontrollable. She was trouble.
"Mmm... You know, I'm a little tired. I think I need a nap." Meredith said with a fake sigh.
"Have a good nap." Sofia said as she watched her walk away.
"I will." Meredith said with a smirk.
She quickly rushed up the stairs. She could feel her creamy white fluid flowing. She needed him inside of her. She needed to feel that high. Her feet pattered on the floor as she made it down the hallway. She did a quick one two look before she walked into his room.
"I need you." She said as she rushed up to him.
"I need you." He said as he covered her lips with his. Meredith moaned as she felt his tongue slide in. She pressed her tongue against his, feeling him press against her. She ran her hand through his hair as he placed his on the sides of her face.
"Oh god... Now." She said as her hands quickly went to his jeans and unfastened them. They quickly fell to a pile on the floor. "Oh god you're hard." She said as she ran her hand over him. "Condom."
"Pocket." He moaned as she dropped to her knees and fished it out of his pocket. "Shit..."
"God I want to taste you." She said as she ripped his shorts down and ran her tongue up his shaft.
"Oh!" He gasped as he felt her warm, soft tongue tasting him. "Oh god..." He groaned as he felt her warm mouth encompass his cock.
"Mmm..." She moaned as she ran her teeth up and down him. They both looked up when the doorbell rang. "Ignore it." She said as she pulled her mouth off of him.
"Miss Grey!" Cristoforo shouted loudly. "There is someone here to see you."
"Damn-it!" Meredith spat as she pulled his cock out of her mouth and climbed to her feet. "I am so sorry." She told him as she pecked a kiss on his lips and walked out.
Derek quickly took matters in his own hands. He needed to feel her. Even if it was a pseudo Meredith. Her hand grasped his cock firmly as he pumped himself, imagining her warm hot core wrapped tightly around her. He groaned and moaned as he worked himself harder and harder. Derek let out a loud grunt as he shot out his warm load.
"Who is it?" Meredith grumbled as she walked down the stairs. Her eyes glanced up and she let out a groan. "Oh."
"Oh? Is that how you treat me?" Matt said with a grin as she walked down the stairs.
"What are you doing here?" Meredith asked as she hit the floor and walked up to him.
"Ha. Are you kidding me? I've come to see my future bride." He said with a big laugh.
"Oh. Yeah. You're bride." Meredith said with a giggle. "I have to say... At first, I thought it was funny. But now, it's getting a little annoying. So yeah, funny joke. Now make it stop."
"Me? You. You're the one that told them that." Matt said in shock.
"Why the hell would I tell the tabloids that you and I are getting married. I have no reason to say that. You told them!" She said as she pointed at him.
"Oh, yes. It was me. I was on a date. A good date. With a hot girl. Smoking hot. Not Meredith Grey hot... But yes, hot. We just got done eating, and we walk by a newspaper stand. I swear I have never been hit harder by a woman in my life!" Matt said quickly. "So no, it was not me."
"I was getting waxed. They were pulling hair off of my- And they were discussing china. Rose pattern. I have to tell you, a rose pattern is not a good idea. I hate roses!" Meredith told him quickly.
"Well, I will have to remember that on our anniversary." Matt said with a chuckle. "Hmm... So it wasn't you. I really thought it was. I figured you realized what a horrible mistake you had made in refusing to date me. I figured this was a ploy to get me back."
"Get you back? I never had you! And even more so, I never wanted you!" She said as she scrunched her nose. "How the hell did they come up with this?"
"You know that paps... And anything to do with Meredith Grey is a hot commodity," He said frankly.
Derek could hear the talking. A man and Meredith. He didn't know who the man was, but he sounded somewhat familiar. As he walked down the hall he heard her giggle. It made him jealous. A man was making her giggle. As he walked towards the stairs, his stomach dropped. Matt. What was he doing here. The anger built as he giggle and placed her hand on his arm. He walked heavily down the stairs with a clenched jaw.
"Oh! David..." Matt said as he glanced up.
"Derek! It's Derek." Meredith told him quickly.
"Oh... Oh yes, Derek. How are you?" Matt asked as he stuck his hand out.
"Fine." Derek grumbled. "And yourself?" He asked out of necessity.
"I am great. Even more so now that I am here. Here in front of the most beautiful woman in the world." Matt said as he ran his hand down her arm.
"You are too kind..." She giggled. "So why are you here again?"
"Yes. Why are you here?" Derek grumbled as he glared at him.
"I came to see Meredith... I'm hoping she will finally grant me a date. So will you, Meredith honey?" Matt asked with a big smile.
"Are you kidding me... Seriously, what brings you to Italy? More importantly, Bologna." She asked again.
"I was in the area. I figured I would visit my fiance. So what do you say, dinner?" Matt asked again.
"You obviously don't understand the word no." Meredith told him with a raised brow.
"And apparently, you are the queen of avoidance, because you won't answer my question." Matt pointed out as he looked into her green eyes.
"Lunch. Now, because I am hungry. That's all you get." She said as she started to open the door.
"Okay... But you don't plan on wearing that, do you? Not to mention the lack of shoes you are sporting." He said with a chuckle as he looked down. "And I doubt your father would allow you to leave the premises without your guard, I sure have you flustered, don't I, my dear?" Matt asked with a wink.
"No." Meredith muttered frankly. "And Derek, can you find Tony? See if he is willing to go along?"
"Tony?" Derek asked frankly.
"Yes, Tony." Meredith spat as she ran up the stairs.
Anger. That was all Derek felt. Why the hell would she want Tony to take her? Did she want to fuck him? Was his cock not enough for her? Now she wanted someone else's? He clenched his jaw and fists as he looked over at Matt, who was so obviously watching her ass as she trotted away. He shot Matt a look before he ran up the stairs.
"What the fuck?" Derek spat as he walked into her room.
"What?" Meredith asked as she buttoned her jeans.
"First of all, why are you going to lunch with him? And secondly, why the fuck don't you want me to come along?" He asked with a glare.
"Oh! You are so cute when you are jealous. You wear it nicely." Meredith said with a giggle as she grabbed his face.
"I am not jealous. And you didn't answer my questions." Derek said as he pulled her hand from his face.
"And the anger... That is unbelievably hot. Makes me want to tear your clothes off and fuck you right now." She told him with a giggle as she ran her hand over his manhood. "If only there were time." She muttered as she walked away.
"Mer!" Derek said loudly as he walked behind her.
"Tony!" Meredith yelled loudly. "I need you." She said as she jogged down the stairs in her heels.
"What do you need?" Tony asked as he looked over at her.
"I need you to accompany me to lunch." Meredith said with a smile as she opened the door.
"What's wrong with Derek?" Tony asked as he looked over.
"He has a bit of a sour attitude today." She muttered as she walked out.
Derek stood there in anger. Had he been in his own apartment, he would have broken something by now. She was going on a date. Was she trying to rip his balls off with her hands? Maybe Mark was right. Maybe she did have poisonous pussy. And maybe his dick was going to fall off and rot. At least that was how it felt.
It was lunch. Just lunch. She wasn't doing it to hurt Derek. She wasn't trying to make Derek jealous. She was trying to get it over with. Just lunch and then he would stay away forever. That was the plan. Not to mention, Derek was being foolish. If she had let him come along, he would blow their cover in an instant with his jealousy.
"So, Meredith... How are things?" Matt asked with a charming smile.
"Good. They are good. And you are wasting your time." Meredith said frankly.
"Oh... I don't think so. See, I got you here, didn't I?" Matt asked with a grin.
"It was purely coincidence. I was hungry. You showed up. That's all it was." Meredith explained in a huff.
"You intrigue me, Meredith Grey." Matt said with a chuckle. "You are awful guarded."
"Maybe." Meredith agreed with a smile.
"So.. How goes this grand adventure of yours?" Matt asked as he took a bite of his sandwich.
"And what would you be referring to?" She asked quickly.
"The guy. The guy that has you so wrapped up that you won't even acknowledge me..." Matt asked. "I am an amazing guy. No... No, I'm not kidding. I am great. And good looking. And charming. And good in bed. You would be lucky. As lucky as I would be to have you. And yet you are wrapped up. So how goes it?"
"Oh. That. That is- That is none of your business!" Meredith snapped frankly.
"So, not so well. When are you going to tell me who this is? Who could possibly have Meredith Grey on her knees?" Matt asked as he looked across the table.
"Everyone. She's on her knees for anyone." Tony muttered under his breath.
Matt looked over in shock. He could not believe that Tony had just made that remark. The anger boiled as he looked at the squirrel-y man before him. He wanted to hit him. He wanted to pounce on him and beat him to the ground.
"Get the fuck out of here." Matt spat quickly as he spun around.
"What?" Tony asked in shock.
"You- You don't talk that way. Not to her. Not to anyone. Who the fuck do you think you are? Get out!" Matt yelled as he got in his face.
"Matt, it's okay." Meredith said with a sigh.
"No. No it is not." Matt said frankly. "Get a cab. Walk. I don't care. But you need to get the fuck out of here."
"I- I-" Tony said in shock. He quickly gulped down the lump in his throat and scurried out.
"He's-" Meredith said quickly.
"I hope you don't let him talk to you like that." Matt said with a frown.
"He doesn't mean it. He's just an ass." Meredith said with a sigh. "But he is good at what he does."
"You are far too great to put up with that. He's- What an asshole!" Matt said in shock as he shook his head.
"Thank you..." Meredith muttered softly.
"You don't have to thank me. That's what friends do for one another." Matt said with a smile. "And someday, I will convince you to go on a date with me."
"Keep dreaming." Meredith said with a giggle.
