Pulling her in close she collapsed into a body of sobs, unable to control the pain she was feeling and it was all because the very man holding her.
'WHY? I love you and you said you loved me, why?' Meredith pushed Derek away to see his reaction to what she was saying.
'I had to give it a go, I gave her eleven years of my life, I can't give them up just like that, please, you have to understand some…'
'No, why should I have to understand anything, the man I thought loved me just left me and I'm supposed to be ok with that, like it happens everyday?' Meredith opened her car door and climb in. Revving the engine she could she the defeated figure standing, with the rain, running off the shoulders of his jacket.
Meredith sped down the high way, over 90kph, the tears streaming down her face when she looked at her phone. Slowing down she answered it, trying to clear her throat.
'Izzy, what's up?'
'I just got a call from Derek Shepard saying that you were really upset. What's wrong?'
'Izzy I'm on my way home just now, I'll tell you when I get there,'
'Ok, and Mere…'
'Yeah?'
'Please drive carefully,'
'Bye Izzy,' Meredith threw the phone on the passenger seat and speed up again, wanting to see Izzy soon.
Derek pushed the trailer door open to see Addison's clothes all over the floor. Closing his eyes, he pushed the door open to see Addison lying on top of a face he recognized.
'Nice to see you Mark, Addison, I'll leave the papers signed on the table. I will be back in an hour and I want you out, out of this trailer and out of my life,' with that he slammed the door shut and left the trailer in a state of shock. He didn't know where to go and could only start the engine and drive.
Izzy was in the kitchen, humming a tune and baking muffins when Meredith came in the kitchen, still wet.
'Oh my god Mere, what happened?'
Izzy threw the oven gloves off and ran over to Meredith who was standing in the doorway. Izzy flung her arms around her, and Meredith broke down to the floor, brining Izzy with her.
"It's ok…let it go…it's ok Mere…let it all go,' George came down the stairs to find izzy sitting with her back against the door frame, with Meredith's head on her lap, stroking her hair.
'Izzy…what's wrong?'
'Two words…Derek Shepard, and I'm gonna kick his ass so hard he'll be in pain for a while,' George came over and lifted Meredith up and pulled her close.
'Let's get you to bed,' George aided Meredith into bed and turned the lights out but not before making her smile.
'I promise you Meredith that if he tries to come near you tomorrow at work, I'll be your knight in shining armor,'
