Chapter 10

Grace had been in hospital for 3 weeks, she was getting discharged that day. Mark was going back to New York for a few weeks the next day. Grace was staying in Seattle with Derek. Addison and Derek had separated and weren't really talking. Derek was renting an apartment close to the hospital as the trailer would be cramped with Derek and Grace both living there. Derek and Meredith were still just "friends".

"Uncle Derek," said a male voice.

"Jake!" said Derek whirling round to face his nephew.

"Yeah it's me," said Jake.

"That is Jake," said Meredith who was standing next to Derek at the nurses station.

He looked like a mini Derek. He was slightly taller, more toned. He had short black hair, a funky little earring, and he was wearing a cord necklace. She looked at his luggage and her suspicions were confirmed when she saw his guitar case, he was a musician. He was basically a younger, cooler but just as hot, version of Derek.

"Yeah, this is my nephew Jake," Derek said to Meredith, "and Jake this is Dr. Meredith Grey"

"Oh this is…." Said Jake shaking Meredith's hand.

"It's nice to meet you Jake," said Meredith, "I wish I could stay but I have rounds to do"

"Well it was nice to meet you too," said Jake.

"She's cute," said Jake once Meredith was out of sight.

"And way out of your league kid," said Derek.

"I don't know, I'm pretty cute. Look at the beard," said Jake.

"Beard? I bet it you've been growing that little shadow since Christmas," laughed Derek.

"You're just scared of the competition, just because you're getting old and past it," laughed Jake.

"Uncle Derek, when am I getting discharged? I'm bored!" Derek heard Grace whine as she came out her room.

"As soon as the specialist clears you and your dad signs the papers," said Derek.

"Well everything in this hospital takes so damn long," she moaned, still not having noticed Jake as he had his back to her.

"Well Jake since you're such a hit with the ladies why don't you go and catch up with Grace while I go and finish my shift. I'll be back in 20 minutes, hopefully the specialist will be there by then and you can come home," said Derek.

"I'll do that," said Jake simply.

"Okay I'll be back as soon as I can," said Derek.

"Come on then Gracie," said Jake leading a stricken Grace into her room.

"You're here!" said Grace sitting down on her bed.

Jake closed the door. He looked over at Grace and suddenly all the feelings he ever had for her came rushing back. She was wearing jeans and a blue t-shirt, her gorgeous brown hair was tied back in a loose ponytail, with little stray hairs falling in her face, she was beautiful without even trying.

Grace and Jake had secretly been seeing each other for the past year. They couldn't tell anyone because she was Mark's daughter and he was Derek's nephew. Jake had just turned 18 and Grace wasn't 17 for another few months, Mark and Derek would not respond at all well to Grace having an older boyfriend. She hadn't told Jake she was going to Seattle and she hadn't been in touch with him since.

"Yeah I'm here and more importantly you're here," said Jake sitting his bags down.

Okay normally I don't write author's notes because they are annoying, but I'm hardly getting any reviews for this story I need feedback because to be honest I'm not that sure about the story line anymore. I know this was a short chapter it was meant to introduce Jake and explain a bit about Jake and Grace, and how they react to seeing each other. So plz be nice and review
