Chapter 8: Chocolate
Meredith and Derek had been dating for a few weeks – but with one rule – no sex. Every relationship that Meredith had that began with sex was based on sex. Meredith didn't want that same outcome with Derek because she really liked him.
They had spent all weekend together at Derek's apartment, just hanging out, and being together. Watching movies, eating, playing games, and just enjoying each other's company. Meredith definitely wasn't looking forward to going to school on Monday. After being delayed by Derek kissing her and not letting her out the door, Meredith arrived at school exhausted but happy. She stayed at Derek's apartment every night that week, two by herself because Derek had been called in for emergency surgery. Even though she was disappointed that she couldn't cuddle with him and fall asleep in his arms, she was comfortable to be where he lived, it gave her peace, and she felt safe.
Meredith hadn't seen Derek since Wednesday evening when he had been paged to come into the hospital. Friday morning, she left his apartment, went home quickly to change, and then arrived at school just on time. She walked to her classroom and the door was locked which was very unusual. She went to the office to call a janitor to open to door and when she got back to her classroom, she walked in to see Derek sitting at her desk with a bouquet of flowers and box of chocolates. "What? What are you doing here?" she asked walking over and giving Derek a big hug. "I missed you. And I wanted to make up for not being with you the past two nights," he said. "Chocolate," Derek heard Meredith say as she walked around the desk and pick up the box. "I'm glad to see you too," he said, as he saw Meredith eat a piece, "How can you eat that this early?" he asked, making a face. "It's chocolate," she said, her mouthful. He laughed and walked over wrapping his arms around his waist. She turned around and he kissed her, her arms going around his neck. He started to inch his hand up her shirt when she stopped him. "Derek" she slapped his chest playfully, "We can't do this in my classroom, the students are going to …oohhh," she said as he started kissing her neck. "Derek!" she pulled away from him. "Sorry," he said, not really sounding sorry. "Yea, Yea, Yea" Meredith said. "I'm going to leave," Derek said, "But, my apartment tonight?" Derek raised his eyebrow and Meredith knew exactly what that meant. "I'll be there. What time?" she asked. "I have a surgery at noon, and should probably be out by four, so, how about six?" he suggested. "Ooo, lets go to the store, and get stuff and make dinner," Meredith said, excited. "Whatever you want," he said, kissing her on the cheek, and walking out the door.
The day went by pretty fast, given the fact that she spoke on the phone with Derek whenever they both had a free moment. And when they didn't, he sent her text messages, telling her how he couldn't wait to see her that night. As it got later in the day, Meredith got even more excited about what was to come that evening.
