You don't know what you got until its gone
It had been a week since he chose her, one week today. They went to see a marriage consultant that suggested they move into Derek trailer. Much to Addison's dismay. She lay next to him sleeping. He felt comfortable but couldn't help but think there was something not there. Something that was there with Meredith. Meredith he thought sexy Meredith Grey. But he put him thinking about her to a stop, he wasn't meant to think about her anymore. He put his mind back to how Addison kept on getting mysterious phone calls and, wouldn't tell him anything about them. He let his thoughts lay to rest as she stirred next to him and she woke up. He smiled at her and got up to get ready for work.
"Do you want some toast?" he asked her as she got up.
"Sure." She walked into the bathroom and turned on the shower. "Derek" she called from in the bathroom "come join me."
"No" he answered back. She sighed she new that would be the answer. She didn't know why but she had a feeling he thought about Meredith sometimes, sometimes when he was staring into the distance. She noticed him looking at her the other day when she was assisting him with a patient.
"Come on lets go." Derek called. Addison heard the door open then close and she grabbed her bag to meet him in the car.
"Jeeze Mer you look likeā¦like-" Izzie started.
"Like shit." Cristina cut in. She had been staying with them while her apartment was being re-wall papered.
"Do I really look that bad?"
"Yeah Mer you do." George came up behind her.
Izzie handed everyone a coffee and they left for work. "Mer when's it going to stop?" Izzie asked.
"When what going to stop?" Meredith looked at her quizzically.
"You looking into space all night instead of sleeping. I went in to see you the other night and you looked terrible."
"I'm fine Izzie."
"No you're not Mer the guy you loved just-"
"Izzie shut up!" Meredith snapped.
"Ok sorry. You know what I think we should go to Joe's tonight, he's got a DJ coming in we can dance the night away."
"Sounds good." Cristina said.
"Yeah." George agreed.
"Ok but let me get through today first." Meredith said as they walked through the doors of Seattle Grace. As they walked over to the elevator Addison and Derek standing near waiting to get in. Meredith sighed as they walked up to the elevator.
"I'm going to take the stairs." Meredith told her friend and headed in the other direction.
"Looks like you're not her favorite person anymore." Addison whispered in Derek's ear. Derek shook his head and sighed, today was going to be a long day.
Meredith stood near Bailey as the other interns came up to her.
"And where were all you Meredith was here 5minutes ago." Bailey snapped at her interns.
"Meredith took the stairs." Alex said coming up behind them "Staying away from Sheppard." He said cockily.
"Shut up Alex." Izzie snapped.
"Enough! Stevens your with the female doctor Sheppard, George you with me, Yang and Karev your doing rounds and sorry to say it Grey male Sheppard."
"Great." Meredith sighed and walked off to find Sheppard. She found him in room 1743.
"Ms Parker you have a tumor in your brain. Luckily for you it will be easy to remove and you'll have no problems recovering." Derek finished after being in the room for half an hour the mood was defiantly uncomfortable. As they walked out of the room Derek pulled Meredith aside.
"Mer-" he started.
"It's Doctor Grey to you." Meredith cut in staring at him with hatred.
"You can't hate me forever."
"Watch me. Know if you don't mind I want to get all my rounds finished so I can leave as soon as possible go have some tequila and dance the night away." Meredith stated, she turned around flicking her long brown hair in his face.
After finishing his shift Derek decided to go to Joe's to mellow out and relax. As he was walking up to the bar the music seemed a little louder then normal. He was greeted by a bunch of dancing people as he walked in. He fought his way up to the bar to talk to Joe.
"Hey Joe. What's going on?" Derek shouted across the bar.
"I'm trying a new Saturday night disco thing to get more money." Joe started laughing at something behind Derek. He turned around to see George Izzie and Meredith dancing on a table top. Meredith couldn't dance when she was sober but when she was drunk she looked amazingly sexy. She saw him and gave him an evil glare then continued on dancing. That's when he relised he had made a mistake.
"Great" Meredith thought "Just when I was having a good time he had to show up!" The song ended and Meredith fought her way over to the bar to get a shot of tequila and a bottle of water.
"Hey Joe Tequila and water please." Meredith said.
"It's on me" Derek voice came from beside her.
"What do you want?" Meredith said with annoyance in her voice.
"What do you mean?"
"Just leave me alone Derek." Meredith moved further up the bar. Derek stayed put.
Meredith moved her hips to the music while waiting for Joe when someone placed their hands on her hips from behind. They weren't Derek's. Meredith knew the feel of Derek's.
"Can I help you?" she asked as she faced a stranger.
"Yeah baby I'd like a serving of you."
"Really." Meredith put her arms around his neck and looked to the side George, Izzie Cristina, Alex, Joe and Derek were watching her.
"Know that's what I'm talking about" The man said eyeing her up and down. Meredith smiled and with one swift motion Kneed him in the balls. He collapsed to the ground in agony.
"Think about touching me again and I'll personally make sure you will never be able to use that thing again." Meredith turned around grabbed her jacket and left the stunned people behind heading home.
