Love is in the air
It was finally Friday. Izzie, Alex, and George were arriving in three hours at the airport. Meredith took off of work until the 26th to entertain their friends. Cristina and Meredith were in the kitchen talking. Burke and Derek went out golfing, which according to Cristina it was to cold for. It gave Cristina and Meredith some much needed girl talk time. They were eating left over Chinese food waiting to go to the airport.
"So Mer I didn't think you ate Chinese."
'I don't but I was craving it at midnight last night and by the time Derek got it I didn't want it anymore." She said shrugging it off. Derek had been catering to her every wish.
"Oh that is nice of him."
"Derek wasn't too happy."
"Do you blame him? So are you still having sex?" Cristina asked curious.
"Oh god are we ever. It is like so much better since I got pregnant. I don't think I can even explain it." She said having a dazed over look.
"Are you nervous for your medical career that you won't get any surgeries?"
"No I am going to give life. That is more important at the moment. Plus I am already guaranteed chief of Neurology and I am getting named chief resident in September. My career is going good and everyone is excited that I am having a baby. No one really has kids so I am sure she will be loved at the hospital."
"Wow your career is going far. Burke and I decided not to have kids if we ever get married. Could you imagine his mother would probably move in with us. I would shot myself. That woman hates me." She laughed knowing she would go soft if she did become a mother. Meredith was softer and bright and shiny now and no longer dark and twisty.

Derek and Burke got out of the car at Hotel Hershey. The walked into the main lobby and Derek led them to the jeweler.
"What are we buying at The Jeweler at Hotel Hershey?" Burke asked surprised that Derek was buying jewelry.
"I wanted someone else's opinion on the ring I want to buy Meredith." Derek said having a smile on his face from ear to ear.
They walked into the store and went up to the main desk.
"Dr. Shepherd good to see you back. Is this the friend that is going to give you an opinion?" The sales clerk asked.
"Yes this is my friend Dr. Preston Burke. He is going to help me decide on the perfect ring for Meredith. She deserves the best. I already have the engagement planned. All our friends and family are coming in and it will be near the Christmas tree at the stroke of midnight on Christmas Eve." He sounds quite proud of himself.
"Well we have only the best for Meredith.'
"I was thinking either princess cut or heart. Which one do you think she will like better?"
"I don't know she might not want it to be huge but it is you expressing your love for her." When Derek made a face saying you are supposed to be helping me. "I would go with the princess cut."
"What do you think of this ring?" He showed Burke a ring that was a princess shape, ideal cut, the best color and clarity money could buy and the band of the ring was 18K gold with small diamonds all wrapped around. The stone itself was 5 Carats.
"Wow that is a beautiful ring. I don't think it will be too big for her. It will definitely take her breathe away." He said almost in shock over the ring.
"You don't think I should go bigger." Derek said getting nervous. "I want her to know how much she means to me." He said when he was getting strange looks from someone else buying a necklace.
"I think she will get it with 5 carats."
"Okay good otherwise I would have to go somewhere else." He took one final look at the ring and then turned to the sales clerk. "Well I guess I will be buying that ring. If she doesn't like it can I return it."
"Within thirty days you may return it." The clerk said and handed Derek a box with the ring inside it.
