Ok I was soooo happy when I got your reviews I sat for ages and I didn't know what to write so I finally came up with this I hope u like it!
"Ok, I'll talk to you soon Chris can't wait to see you." Meredith hung up the phone as Derek came in.
"Who was that?" Derek asked.
"Oh just an old friend."
"You have friends that don't work at this hospital?" Derek joked.
"Yes I do!"
"So who is it?"
"Who's who?" Meredith said trying to change the topic of conversation a little.
"The person on the phone who was it?"
"Just an old friend."
"Mer."
"Fine he's name is Chris I went to med school with him." Meredith saw jealousy roll across Derek's face, he turned around to hide it.
"Thank you that wasn't that hard was it." He smiled. Meredith had to hold in the urge of mentioning her name so she could win but didn't. "You ready to go?"
"Yeah I'll get my stuff."
Everyone's day at Seattle Grace was very stressful. Burke's patient died on the operating table. Alex was being a prick. Izzie and George were fighting and Meredith could still feel jealousy in Derek which uneased her a bit now.
"Dr.Shepard" she called after him.
"Yeah." He turned around to face her.
"Is there something wrong?"
"No why would there be something wrong."
"You've just been acting weird since this morning that's all."
"I'm fine Meredith. Are we still going to lunch?"
"Yeah of course."
"Ok I'll see you then." He turned around and walked down the hall. Leaving Meredith standing there quizzically.
Meredith sat on a chair in the waiting room. 'What is wrong with him' she thought? But her thoughts were interrupted by Derek.
"Hey" he said smiling at her "You ready to go?"
"Yeah." They kissed briefly. "Where are we going?"
"I just thought we'd go to the coffee shop down the road, nothing to fancey."
"Oh that sounds great." Meredith stopped at the door staring at someone getting out of a car.
"Mer are you alright."
"Yeah hang on second." Meredith went walking over to the car. "Chris!" She hugged the man standing there. "Oh my god I thought you weren't coming until tomorrow!"
"Yeah well I thought I might surprise you." Meredith looked back at Derek, then back at Chris.
"Listen Chris I'm about going out to lunch with someone right now, I'll give you my spare keys ok you go back to the house and make your self comfy and will get my friend Izzie to make a great dinner tonight and you can meet some people ok."
"Ok Mer." Chris gave her another hug then got into his car. Meredith walked back to Derek with a smile on her face.
"Who was that." He questioned her.
"The guy I was talking to you about this morning, I was going to tell you tonight he was coming to visit, he wasn't meant to come until tomorrow."
"Ok" Derek said leaving it for the time being. "Let's go." He put his arm around her a held her closely.
They sat down in the coffee place and the waitress took there orders.
"Why didn't you tell me this morning that he was coming." Derek asked. Meredith sighed she new this was coming.
"Just didn't think of it." She was unable to make eye contact with him.
"Don't lie Mer."
"'I'm not…" her voice trailed off he was good at telling when she was lying. "We used to date in Med school that's all I didn't think you would be comfortable with it. I know how jealous you get." She gave him a cheeky grin hoping push him off the subject.
"You still should have told me."
"Yeah like you should have told me about-"
"Meredith!" he stopped her before she could finish. Meredith beeper went off.
"I have to go we'll talk about it later." She gave him a small smile and kissed him.
Meredith fell onto her couch when she got home. Derek still had to work for another hour. She was ready to go into a very deep sleep but was soon interrupted.
"Hey" Chris's happy voice came from above her.
"Oh my god I completely forgot you were here, I'm sorry, really tough day work." She said jumping up from the couch.
"That's alright. So let's talk about stuff hey."
"Yeah we have heaps to talk about. So you seeing anyone?" Meredith gave him a grin.
"No not at the moment just broke up with someone."
"Oh I'm sorry."
He shrugged. "Don't be. So how about you anyone special in Meredith Grey's life?"
"Yeah actually there is Derek we've been dating for about a year and a bit now if you don't count the year I was away. He's coming tonight we kind of live together, kind of we switch from his place to my place every so often." She smiled.
"Mer that's great." They talked for a little while longer then Meredith told him were the bathroom was so he could have a shower. When he got out he heard a knock on the door and listened to Meredith conversation with someone, a bit nosey he new but he couldn't help himself.
"Hey." Derek grinned pulling out some flowers from behind his back. "Just to say sorry for about today."
"Oh Derek it wasn't that big of deal!" Meredith exclaimed.
"I know." He dipped her and kissed he patiently as Chris was walking down the stairs.
"Hey there are other people in this house to you know." Chris grinned from the top of the stairs.
Derek lifted her up and Meredith started the introductions.
Izzies dinner that she made was delicious and everyone had a great time and seemed to be having a good time but there was a silence when Chris said something Meredith didn't want any of them to know.
"I remember when we were engaged Mer-" He started.
"Chris shut up!" Meredith snapped. "Ummm George Izzie do you mind clearing up I'm going to bed." Meredith got up from the table and began walking up stairs leaving Derek and Chris sitting at the table as George and Izzie had gone to the kitchen.
"I'm going to go check on her." Derek started "Nice meeting Chris." He got up from the table and went to Meredith's room. He knocked softly as he opened the door.
"Don't say anything Derek." She was laying on her bed in the dark.
"Ok." He replied.
"Really your not going to push it?" Mereith sat up.
"No" He walked over and sat on the bed next to her leaning his head against the wall. She laid her head against his chest and snuggled up to him.
"I'm sorry." she whispered.
"Shhhhh go to sleep." He stroked her hair and kissed her lightly. They fell asleep in each others arms.
