How much do i love you guys? I sat in work writing an update, and i have finished typing it. I Have just worked my second of three long days with no day off until next Saturday. This is just a filler, but i want to write what was going through their minds, i still haven't actually decided what i am going to do yet, some of you don't think it is too fast, while others don't, i think i have an idea of where it is heading, but i can't decided where i originally decided to go or not. This update go back and forth between Derek and Meredith's thoughts. Enjoy!

Previously on A Love that Knows No Boundaries

"Derek, if there is one thing I have learnt being with Mark is not too waste any time, and i want to spend a lifetime with you, i want to wake up in your arms every morning, and know that you are mine and that i am yours. Derek, will you marry me?"

-----------------------------------------------------------

Derek stood there staring a Meredith, in shock; those were the words he was not expecting to hear, especially not on this day. Derek was totally speechless, as his family milled around Meredith giving her their congratulations which gave Derek a chance to think about the million thoughts going through his mind. Yes, he wanted to marry her, and his want children with her, and he knew that he wanted to spend forever with her, but marriage now, no matter how much he loved her, he wasn't sure that he was ready, yet. After his divorce from Addison, he swore that he would never get married, that is why over the years, he has never had a serious relationship since until he met her a year ago.

"Derek" his mom's voice broke through his thoughts.

"Yes mom"

"We are going to celebrate the good news, are you coming?"

"I will follow you mom, there is something i need to do first"

"Okay" Carolyn said, Derek pulled Meredith into his arms and gave her a gentle kiss on lips, before letting her go and watching her being dragged off by his family.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Will you marry me?"

Where the hell did that come from, as soon as those words left her mouth she wanted to slap herself, where on earth did that come from, she had only just thirty minutes before been granted her divorce, it was way to fast to be thinking about marriage, no matter how much she loved him. She knew that she had never loved anyone like she loved him. Meredith was watching Derek closely, and for the first time since they met, she couldn't read him, and she so desperately wanted to know what was going though his mind. Meredith was pulled out her thoughts by Lacey throwing her arms around her, and congratulating her, and once \lacey finished hugging her, she was pulled into another hug by Carolyn, she offered Derek a small smile but he never noticed.

"Let's go and celebrate Meredith?" she heard Carolyn say and before she could respond, she heard her addressing Derek and his reply broke her heart, she was so worried that she ruined the best thing that had ever happen to her. When Derek pulled into his arms and gently kissed her, her heart leaped, before they dragged her away from him. Yes she wanted to celebrate but only with Derek.

------------------------------------------------------------

Derek watched has his family pulled Meredith away from him, and once she was out of sight, he walked toward the bar across the street, and decided to have a quick drink before meeting them, when they got back to the hotel it was time to deal with elephant that stood between them right now.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Meredith wanted to fight them and stay with Derek and talked about this, the big elephant that stood between them right now, she kept looking behind her hoping Derek was following them, but he wasn't, her heart sunk. Meredith had to believe that wasn't it that they could work through this, that this wasn't the end of them.
