Chapter 64: I Gotta Go

Derek made Meredith relax in the living room while he cleaned up the dishes from dinner. When he was done, he went into the other room and saw Meredith sitting on the couch watching TV and laughing. He stood in the doorway watching her – nothing made him happier then to see her smiling and happy. And that was a rare occurrence since Laura came into the picture. After a few minutes, Meredith realized that she was being watched. She looked up to see Derek standing in the doorway with a smirk on his face.

"What are you looking at, Dr. Shepherd?" Meredith asked, turning off the television.

"You," he said, walking over and sitting on the couch next to her, "I've decided that we need to do something about the food you eat."

"What? Why? What's wrong with the food I eat?"

"Macaroni and cheese for dinner? Cold pizza for breakfast?"

"So?"

"You need more fruits and vegetables."

"Um, there's vegetables on the pizza. But…can we forget about my nutrition for right now and talk about the wedding like we're supposed to be doing?"

Derek chucked and gave her a kiss on the cheek, "Of course. What about it?"

"Everything," she said, becoming very animated, "Invitations and favors and guest list…and, I've been meaning to ask you, do you want an engagement party?"

"It's all up to you, Mer," he said, leaning over and kissing her neck.

"Ohhh…that's the other thing," she said before she wouldn't be able to stop him or herself.

"Hmmm?" Derek asked, continuing to kiss her.

"No sex."

"What?!?" he said, pulling back and looking at her with his eyebrows raised.

"It's just…some couples wait until they get married to have sex and I thought we should wait until we're married to do it again."

"I don't get it. We've already had sex. Lots of sex. So why wait now?"

"Derek!" she said, stopping him from kissing her again.

"Seriously? You want me to wait to have sex with you for 6 months?"

She smiled a big cheesy smile that always made Derek laugh.

"We'll see about this, soon to be Mrs. Shepherd," he said teasingly.

The next morning, they were sitting at the kitchen table enjoying breakfast. Meredith eating leftovers from the night before, and Derek, as always, having a bowl of muesli. They were talking about making an appointment to see somebody for invitations when the phone rang.

"I'll get it," Meredith said, putting her dish in the sink and then grabbing the phone, "Hello?…Hi Ms. Abbott…My summer is very good…Okay…Seriously?…I'll have to get back to you….Yeah…See you soon."

Derek heard Meredith's voice drop as the conversation continued, but had no idea what was going on, just that Ms. Abbott was the principal at the school that Meredith taught at.

"Mer? What's up?" he asked, as she put the phone down, a shocked look on her face.

"Nothing. I, uh…I gotta go…I'll see you later."

She gave him a quick kiss on the cheek and then rushed out the door.
