Meredith sighed and dropped the phone back in her pocket after putting it on silent.
"Who was it?" Derek asked her.
"It was Izzie, probably wanting to know what's happening." Meredith lied. She shifted from one foot to the next as Derek looked down at her. She knew, he knew, she was lying. But he didn't have the heart to ask who it really was just then. Taking her hand he pulled her close to him once again. He put his finger under her chin making her look up at him. Running his hand across her jaw he pulled her even closer. Their faces were now centimeters apart. Derek smiled, he knew the effect this was having on her. He brushed his lips against her so lightly she wasn't sure if she made it up or if it had really happened. Putting his hand on her hips he pulled his face away. "Care to dance?" He asked, knowing for a fact that Meredith would laugh at the extravagance. She surprised him however by pulling him close to her and kissing him. First softly and then more heated. She let his hands roam up over her stomach and sides down to the back of her legs. She felt him smile as he kissed her collar bone but he didn't go any lower knowing that's not what she wanted.
"Derek." Meredith gasped. Laughing as he nuzzled into the crook of her neck. "It's late." She stated simply. She wished she could stay out here with him forever but, she had work tomorrow.
"I'll drive you home." Derek said and took her hand.
Arriving at the house he walked her to the door. "Goodnight Meredith." He told her and for the last time that night he kissed her. Breath mingling and both smiling the kiss was sweet and simple. He gave her a quick hug and drove off.
Meredith stood there for a moment and extracted the phone from her purse. Five missed calls from Shawn. She groaned. She walked in the door and almost screamed in fright. For there he was in the middle of the room.
