As human beings, sometimes its better to stay in the dark; because in the dark there may be fear, but there's also hope

Early one Sunday morning, the ringing of the door awoke Meredith. Not seeing Derek in sight she decided to answer the door herself. She got downstairs to find Burke and Derek talking in the family room. The odd thing was that they were both dressed in fishing attire.
"So you guys go fishing?" she asked.
"As often as we can." Burke said.
"Sorry I didn't wake you, usually I don't because it's too early and I know that you like to sleep in." Derek said to Meredith.
"No, no that's fine. You guys look ridiculous you know that right?"
Derek and Burke both looked at each other.
"Yeah, we know." They said together.
"Ok, just making sure, I'm going back to bed."
The next day both Meredith and Derek were in the middle of an tumor removal when suddenly all of her memories started rushing back to her.
Meredith awoke the morning after the bomb incident to find her room was filled with lavender and a note beside her bed.
Meet me at the ferryboats at 7:00
I signed, it's over
-D
Meredith looked up and saw Izzie standing at the door with two cups of coffee in her hand.
"He's incredible you realize that right." Izzie said to her friend.
"Yeah, I know."
"Everyone can I have your attention." Derek yelled out on the balcony to the entire surgical staff.
"Derek what are you doing?!"
"Making sure that you say yes. In front of everyone I want to ask you to marry me."
"Derek don't."
He got down on one knee.
"Meredith I am so in love with you. I have been for a long time and I know that it's taken a while for us to be together but I don't want to waste another moment without you being my wife. We are meant to be with each other. So marry me."
"Yes." She said softly.
"Yes?"
"Yes!" Meredith screamed.
Before the ceremony started, Derek said "I love you so much"
"We are gathered here today to celebrate the marriage of Meredith Grey and Derek Shepard. If anybody here feels that this two should not be together for eternity, speak now or forever hold your peace."
Everyone and thing was silent except for the sound of the water.
"Meredith and Derek have decided forgo traditional vows for ones they have prepared from their hearts. Derek you may go first"
"The night I met you in the bar forever changed my life. You were absolutely break taking. So imagine my surprise the next morning when you kick me out" Everyone laughed.
"But when I saw in the hospital that day I thanked God because fate at that moment was on our side. We may have had our share of problems but I am overwhelmed on how much I love you, your incredible. So as I stand here today with you I want to thank you for choosing me, picking me and loving me"
Meredith's eyes were on the verge of tears
"Oh God your making this really hard on me to start my vows" Derek chuckled "Words can't even express how much I am in love with you. I always heard people say that there was difference from loving someone and actually being in love with someone and now I understand. I can't ever imagine my life with out you. You make all the problems I have in my life just disappear and I am so grateful for that. I am in love with you more than words can describe."
"So now I ask, Derek, do you take Meredith as you lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, to love and to cherish, from this day forward until death do you part?"
"I Do"
"And Meredith, do you take Derek as your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, to love and to cherish, from this day forward until death do you part?"
"I Do"
At this point they were both smiling like idiots but they didn't care.
"Can I have the ring?" The celebrant asked
Burke reached out from inside his suit and handed the rings to him. The celebrant held up the rings.
"These rings are a symbol of everlasting love- a circle that never ends or breaks just like the love between a man and a woman." he handed a ring to Derek. "When you place this ring on Meredith's finger, please repeat after meā¦Meredith, with this ring, I thee wed."
With his fingers trembling, he repeated "Meredith with this ring, I thee wed"
"Now Meredith repeatā¦Derek, with this ring, I thee wed"
With tears and a smile on her face she repeated "Derek with this ring, I thee wed"
They both stood there starring in each other's eyes
"I take great pleasure in now pronouncing you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride"
Derek pulled Meredith into him and they both got lost in the kiss.
"I believe milady that it is tradition for the man to carry his bride over the threshold."
"Derek we've been married for almost two months."
"So, we're still in the honeymoon phase."
"We'll always be in the honeymoon phase."
Derek picked Meredith up, he whispered into her ear, "I have glow in the dark condoms in my back pocket."
Meredith had been sick to her stomach for several weeks know and had decided to have it checked out. Since Cristina and George were busy she had decided to have Izzie check her out.
After about 10 minutes of waiting in the exam room, Izzie came back in.
"Good news is that nothing bad is wrong with you."
"So what's the bad news?"
"There is no bad news, your pregnant."
"Seriously?"
"Seriously. Your 3 months along."
"Derek there's something that I need to tell you."
"After a few minutes of finally searching for Derek she found him looking at the board.
"Sure, what's up?" He asked without looking away from the board.
"Derek this is important."
His demeanor changed and he turned his head. "What's wrong?"
"I'm pregnant."
Derek's face broke out into a huge grin.
"Really?" he asked.
"Would I lie to you about this?"
He picked her up and spun her around.
"I think this calls for some celebration sex tonight."
"Dr. Shepherd are you ok?" A fellow resident, Lindsay Thomas, asked her.
Derek looked at her with concern.
She smiled, "Yeah, better than ever."
Then she collapsed on the floor.
A/N I didn't have school today so I thought I would get a new chapter up. I hate to say but I think that the next chapter is going to be the last. Although I have thought about doing an prequel of sorts to this story and wanted to know what you guys would think of that. So let me know and review!!!!
