Enjoy!
Derek drove through downtown Boston, stopping outside a downtown mall, where Izzie was waiting for her, Meredith looked across at Derek with wide eyes, Derek simply smiled before he got out of the car and opened the door for Meredith and walked her over to Izzie. Meredith quietly said bye to Derek while she and Izzie went shopping. Derek had to pick Mark and Addison up from the airport, his mother had arrived the day before, Derek knew how much she want to see Meredith again, but Meredith was still quite sensitive, and he didn't want to upset her until everything was sorted.
Derek had also arranged for Cristina to come out, and she would be arriving in Boston later that evening, Derek had it all planned out, he had to pick his mom up from the hotel, and decided to show her location before going to pick Mark and Addison up, he wanted his mom's input, especially has she was still annoyed at him, for finding out that he was back with Meredith from the papers, and that she hadn't had a chance to see her yet. Derek prayed that Meredith wouldn't freak out about the wedding when she found out, they had only been back together a month but Derek knew exactly what he wanted, and he knew that she did, she was too scare to grab it. At least here, he felt connected to their little boy. He still hadn't mentioned anything to his mom yet about Liam, he was waiting for Ellen to arrive and he decided to tell them together and take them to see him. Derek pulled up to the Ritz Carlton Boston Common. He gave his car to the valet and went into the bar, where his mom was sat waiting for him.
"Hey mom, sorry I'm late" Derek says leaning down and kissing her, before sliding into the seat next to her.
"I trust everything went well"
"Meredith is with Izzie, shopping, and I am going to meet her later"
"Where does she think you've gone?"
"I just said that I had friends here, which isn't an exact lie, but she find out that surprise tonight" Derek says grinning.
"I am glad to finally seeing you happy Derek, its about time"
"I am just glad that I managed to find her again, mom"
"So am I, I just wish it hadn't taken so long"
"So, do I mom, but trust me, she hasn't had it easy these last fifteen years mom"
"Changing the subject Derek, what time are you picking Mark and Addison up from the airport"
"In a couple of hours, Meredith flying out too"
"Isn't that awkward having two Meredith's or haven't they met yet?"
"Your granddaughter does like being called Ellen, mom. And they have met, only once, but they do talk on the phone quite often"
"I haven't seen her in over a year Derek"
"I know and I am sorry mom, you know how Carole gets"
"I am surprise that she let her fly out here"
"I didn't exactly give her much choice, mom, I want my daughter here on my wedding day, and I think Meredith would also"
"I hope you right, Derek" Carolyn said to him.
"I know I am mom, shall we get going, it take a while to get to the airport"
"Don't get cocky with me, Derek" Carolyn says to him, has she gets up. "I am surprised Meredith put up with it" Carolyn places her arm in Derek's, walking out the hotel lobby.
---------------------------------------------------------
An hour later they arrive at the airport, the flight from Los Angeles is due to land in fifteen minutes, and Derek decided to take advantage of the time and called Meredith, who answered on the second ring.
"Hey, Derek"
"You having fun"
"Having fun, being dragged around a load of shops trying on dresses and I don't even know why"
"Just enjoy it, Mer" Derek laughed down the phone.
"Do you know how expensive these dresses are?"
"Meredith, it doesn't matter, Izzie's got my credit card, and so have a splurge"
"Derek, I can't do that it is your money"
"Meredith, are going to be wife, what is mine is yours and has your future husband, I am telling you to spend my money"
"You are going to regret telling me that Derek"
"Just buy one thing that I tell you, okay"
"Do I have a choice?"
"No, buy some sexy lingerie, for wear tonight under a hot sexy dress tonight" Derek says quietly into the phone, not wanting anyone to hear what he is saying to her.
"So I guess that mean lots of hot sex, after wherever we are going," Meredith teases him.
"Don't tease, I'll see you later, love you"
"Love you too, bye" Derek turns to find his mom standing behind him, and he jumps. "Mom, you scared me"
"Sorry, but the flight has just landed" Carolyn tells him, and Derek follows his mom over to the waiting area, and Ellen is the first one out followed by Mark and Addison.
"Dad" Ellen waves before coming over and give her father a big hug. "Where's Meredith?" she asked looking around for her.
"Meredith doesn't know your coming; she knows nothing about this, not until tonight anyway"
"Okay, dad. Hi Nan, I haven't seen you in ages" El says giving her Nan a hug.
"You get more beautiful everytime I see you Meredith"
"Nan, please call me Ellen, it is a lot easier, especially once Mer is around too" while Ellen and Carolyn are talking Derek greets Mark and Addison, they can all tell that Mark still isn't happy about this, but Derek didn't want to get married without Mark being his best man. Addison gives Derek a hug, and while Mark carries the bags, and Derek grabs Ellen case, Addison links her arm through Derek, leaving Mark walking behind them.
"Derek I am so sorry about Mark, I have warned him that he better behave him, or I will divorce him"
"You didn't Addie"
"Yep, I did, I am sick off his attitude, all we want is for you to be happy and Meredith makes you happy, and I always like Meredith so he can either be a friend and be supportive or he loses me" Addie says to Derek.
"You wouldn't actually leave him over this would you Addie?" Derek says to her quietly.
"Of course I wouldn't but he doesn't know that" Addie says with a smirk on her face. They walk out of the airport, and Derek drop them all back to the hotel that his mom is staying at, Ellen is getting ready at the hotel, but Derek is taking her case back to the house, he wanted his daughter with them.
