Chapter 3

Oh my god thats our baby

Actually I'm detecting five seperate heartbeats

What?!

"F...Five there are five babies inside my body oh my god"

"I'll give you two a minute" Addison said quietly leaving the room

"Oh my god Derek five babies FIVE! We cannot hae five babies one is terrifying enough but five?!"

"Meredith look at me" he said firmly grabbing her hand "you can do this okay we can do this"

"But what if i can't Derek?"

"You can I'll be with you the whole time okay we can do this" he repeated for his own sake as much as hers.

"You promise?"

"I Promise" he said kissing her forehead

"Okay Meredith it looks like you are about two months along" Addison said coming back intot he room " Now I'm sure you know that carrying quints is risky but there are other options"

"No" Meredith said firmly

"Mer maybe..."

"No Derek I won't I cannot kill my babies any of them"

"Okay I will go talk to a nurse about getting you admitted" "thank you Addison"

"Meredith are you sure about this"

"Yes Derek I am sure I will not kill my babies"

"You're right" he said sitting on the chair beside her bed " It's just what if something went wrong I don't know what I would do if I lose you"

"You won't okay? I'm not going anywhere but we can't kill one of them"

" I know you're right" " Thank you" she said trying to stifle a yawn "Tired?"



"Exhausted" "you should go to sleep we'll be able to move you up to a room on this" " Okay" she yawned " "Will you hold me?" "Sure" he said climbing on to the bed.

A few minutes later Addison came back into the room he gently lowered himself off the bed Causing her to stir slightly " It's okay Mer we are just moving you to a room go back to sleep" " Okay" she yawned and drifted back to sleep. Later he caught Addison in the hallway "I just wanted to thank you" "for what" she asked confused "for taking care of Meredith and being okay with the divorce" she smiled "she makes you happy" he nodded "i'm sorry I didn't love you not they way you desrved to be loved" "yeah" she sighed "me too we were happy though? I mean there was a time when we loved each other?" "There was I guess we just got lazy. I wasn't fair to keep it going" "you're right goodbye Derek" "Goodbye Addison" he said opening the door to her room and the start of his new life

She was discharged the next morning Richard having given both her and Derek the next week off.

"So your place or mine?" he asked as they walked out of the hospital " Can we stp by mine o get some stuff then go to yours" " Sure." They drove to her house in a comfortable silence. When they arrived she grabbed a small suitcase from her closet and began throwing stuff in it while he lay on the bed

"So I have a question " she said from the bathroom "Shoot"

"Where are we gonna live?"

"I've been thinking about that myself actually"

"And?"

"You know the land over looking the city?"



"Yeah?"

" I thought we could build a house" There was a long silence from the bathroom before she came out and leaned against thne doorframe. "Seriously?" "seriously" he nodded she smiled at him and he returned it "you're okay with this? I mean us and being pregnant and everything I know it's fast"

"Yeah it is and it is scary but as long as you are here with me I'll get used to it" she said rubbing her stomach "I'm not going anywhere" he said pulling her down on the bed causing her to giggle. "So any requirements?" "A jacuzzi bathtub and a big balcony coming of our room." "Is that all?" "Hmm oh can we have a pool?" "whatever you want" he smiled "what about you don't you want anything?" "as long as you are in it with me i'm happy" "you're so corny" she said swatting him lightly.

I REALISE THAT WAS A BIT CHEESY BUT I'M A SUCKER FOR A BIT OF CHEESINESS THANKS FOR THE REVIEWS SO FAR.
