There are times when even the best of us have trouble with commitment and we may be surprised at the commitments we're willing to let slip out of our grasp. Commitments are complicated. We may surprise ourselves by the commitments we're willing to make. True commitment, takes effort, and sacrifice. Which is why sometimes, we have to learn the hard way to choose our commitments very carefully.

CHAPTER 9 You Can't Hurry Love
You can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait
She said love don't come easy
It's a game of give and take
It had been one week since Derek and she got back together and also a week since Denny had died. Derek and Meredith were happier than ever. They had decided to keep things quiet just until everything with Denny had settled down. They had to save their alone time to little visits in the on-call rooms and also elevators.
"Okay, Yang you're with me. Grey, Dr. Shepherd has requested your medical services today. George you seem to be popular too, Dr. Torres has requested you and Alex you are in the pit today."
Before she could find Derek, she was paged. She got into the elevator without realizing who was in there with her.
"You know elevator rides can be very interesting if you have the right person with you." Derek said.
Meredith turned around, "Really?"
He grinned, "Yep." He wrapped his arms around her tiny waist, "So do you want to make this elevator ride interesting?"
She leaned into him and was inches away from meeting his lips when she leaned to his ear instead.
"Remember what I said Derek."
"Yes, I know you said no sex for at least a month but come on Mere, it's me and you. We're practically a condom and if we don't have sex we are going to put the condom companies out of business."
Meredith laughed hard, "You're good." He smiled, "But it's not going to work."
"But sex is good."
"Yes Derek but the last time we were together is was all about sex and we are supposed to be dating. I hear that dating can be fun."
"Yes but dating can be even more fun with something to look forward at the end of the date."
Just then the doors to the elevator opened to their floor.
"I believe that we have work that we must attend to Dr. Shepherd." Meredith said in a very professional voice.
"Very well Dr. Grey."
The rest of the day went by slowly and it was Meredith's day to go home at lunch to check on Izzie. After Denny's death, Izzie took off two week from the hospital and was told that it meant longer shifts to make up for the lost time.
Meredith got home and called out for Izzie but there was no answer.
"Izzie!" Meredith called out again but got no response in return.
She walked into the kitchen and found a note on the refrigerator
I had to meet someone at Joe's. Don't worry about me, I'm fine.
Meredith was glad that Izzie was finally getting out of the house. The last time she had been out of the house was when they had brought her home from the hospital after Denny had died.
She was about to leave when she heard a knock on the door. When she got to the glass door, she could see Finn on the other side. That's when it hit her, she had forgotten to break up with Finn when she got back with Derek.
"Finn! What are you doing here?" Meredith asked.
"Oh I didn't know you were going to be home. I was coming to bring Izzie some food. I know how hard it is too lose someone really close to you and the thing that always made me feel better was when someone would bring me food." He smiled.
"Shiva."
"Yeah I guess. So I haven't heard from you in almost a week now."
Meredith was about to say something when suddenly Finn's lips were upon hers. The force of his kiss was so hard that as Meredith tried to pull away she ended up pushing herself into a wall, unable to break away. She put her hands on his chest to try to push him off at the same moment Derek walked into the house.
They broke apart and Derek stood there shocked and the bouquet of red roses in his hands had dropped to the floor.
"I thought you were different Meredith, I really did but you are just like her." Derek said with disgust in his voice and left.
"What was that about?" Finn asked.
"Finn I had meant to call but it slipped my mind. I decided to try to make things work with Derek and now I might have just ruined things." Meredith said pushing Finn out of the way and going after Derek.
A/N So that whole Finn kissing Meredith was not planned or even in my head until I started writing. But that Finn has caused so many problems for Meredith and Derek, will he cause more? Only I know the answer and only you will know if I get reviews. Remember the more reviews the more encouraged I am to update.
So I am kinda of so-so about how this story is during out. If you guys have any suggestions please let me know - it would help a great deal!
Thanks to all those who have reviews – they make me so happy!!!!!!
