Meredith couldn't sleep. The bed was uncomfortable and the gown she was wearing itched. She wasn't tired and the silence was driving her mad. She tossed and turned and finally ended up turning on the t.v.
The only movie on was a basketball movie. She hated basketball but she watched it anyway. She sighed and fell back onto her pillow. She hated being stuck in bed and not doing anything. She could page the nurse but they would probably give her medicine that made her sleepy. She didn't want that kind of sleep. She wanted to not be restless and upset.
"Meredith, you should try to sleep." Derek told her walking into the room. He was in his scrubs still and he looked worn out.
"So should you." Meredith told him and turned off the t.v.
"I should but I can't."
"Why not?" She asked.
"I've been doing a lot of thinking. Meredith when I thought about losing you I..." He ran his hair through his fingers.
"You what?" Meredith prodded.
"I wanted to do this." Derek walked over and kissed her. He was going crazy for her. He couldn't be in the same room without his heart beating faster and his breath coming slower. She tried to pull away but she couldn't. She didn't want to. She could feel him smile and he was about to pull back but she grabbed him. "No." She whispered as she kissed him again.
"We can't." Meredith tried to tell him but wasn't very forceful. She knew she shouldn't be doing this. He was married.
"Derek you're married." She told him and finally pulled away.
He was smiling and he took her hands in his. He hugged her and tried to kiss her again but she pulled away.
"Derek you're married!" Meredith tried to say.
"But I love you." He told her.
"You can't."
"But I do." Derek whispered his voice cracking as he looked at the tears running down Meredith's cheek.
