Disclaimer: Hey, so yeah, Grey's does not belong to me, and even if it went on the market I'm sure that there would be a loooooooong line until I could buy it.
Okay, so who else was super happy after Thursday's episode? I know I was.
The other day, I got to thinking… all my friends think that I am uber obsessed with Grey's Anatomy, I mean, just because I dressed up as Meredith Grey for Halloween, doesn't mean I have a problem? So I am having a Grey's Anatomy Desperate Fan Contest (though, there's no prize, except to know that you are the number one Grey's Anatomy fan who reads this story.) so read this chapter and in your review write why you think that you are an obsessed fan. I'll read them all, and by my next update, I'll come up with a winner.
Before I begin to write, I want to clear some stuff up. For the sake of this story the age difference between M and D is much much smaller than I'm assuming it is in real life (or real Grey's Anatomy life) if Meredith is 21, I'm going to say that Derek is 25.
So
on with the story, eh?
It
was the last day of the convention, the day when Ellis Grey would be
presenting. Meredith was really dreading this day, she had no idea
what her mother was going to say in the presentation, and the
possibility of revealing Meredith's true identity to Derek and the
rest of the convention was scaring Meredith beyond belief.
Meredith really like Derek, she didn't know why or how she could like him this much in only one week of knowing him, but they were all ready planning on spending the next week together. Derek was going to take a few days off from the hospital and on the other days, Meredith was going to explore the city herself.
"Good morning" Derek said as he rolled over in bed to greet Meredith
"Nooooo, sleepy" Meredith smiled; her eyes still closed
"How can you be tired? We went to sleep early." Derek asked
"To be fair, we didn't do much sleeping" Meredith giggled, "let's just stay in bed all day."
"Wish I could Mer, but the only reason I came to this convention is doing a presentation today in an hour" Derek said as he got out of bed
"We could order room service, and go swimming, I mean really, no one will care if you ditch, will they?" she asked, batting her eyelashes
"Don't you want to meet Ellis Grey?" he asked from the bathroom, as he brushed his teeth, Meredith scrunched her nose,
"I'd rather spend all day in bed."
"Why?" he stepped into the bedroom, his toothbrush hanging out of his mouth
"Because I'd be in bed all day."
"But she's this amazing surgeon" he explained
"But, its bed" Meredith said raising her eyebrows and patting the empty space beside her, Derek chuckled
"Do you know what Webber will do if he found out that I skipped this?"
"So be sneaky, I am excellent at sneaking" Meredith said stubbornly
"Sorry, but I have to… I also have to take a shower, and so do you…" Derek smiled dreamily "we could save water by sharing?" he raised his eyebrows, like Meredith had done only seconds before, Meredith frowned
"I like my idea better." Derek pouted, "but I suppose…" she said giggling as she hopped out of bed and ran into the bathroom, grabbing Derek's arm as she passed by and pulling him with her.
"I don't wanna go" Meredith whined as they approached the convention room, she grabbed for Derek's hand
"Why not?"
"Because… I have a feeling…"
"I get those" Derek smiled
"Really? What do you do?" Meredith asked
"Wait for it to pass"
"Oh"
"But—" Derek began as a certain redhead entered his peripheral vision
"But what? What is it?" Meredith asked, she turned around and followed Derek's gaze only to find Addison laughing at something that Mark had said. Meredith turned back to Derek, but it didn't matter, because Derek was shut off to the world as he stared at his ex-girlfriend.
Addison finally caught on, and she turned to look at Derek, they both just stood there and stared at each other.
"Derek, Derek, if we are going to this thing, then we have to get seats, Derek?" Derek just tuned her out, "Derek?" she let out an annoyed sigh, she ran her hand through long blonde mane, and caught the eye of Addison's steamy friend Mark, she smiled, but he quickly turned back to Addison. "Derek, I swear to god" Meredith had no idea what to do. Until it came to her, it was so simple. She kicked Derek in the shin.
"Ow, what the hell?" Derek yelped grabbing for his leg, across the room Mark let out an amused laugh; Meredith just rolled her eyes and ran to catch the elevator back up to her floor.
"Meredith? Meredith where are you going, Meredith?" Derek ran after her, trying really hard to forget the pain in his shin. He messed up, he knew he messed up, but he just couldn't look away. He got to the elevators just in time to see Meredith step in. He slipped is hand to catch the doors and slid in after her.
"What? What do you want, Derek? Do you want me to just step aside so that you can get back together with your perfect ex?"
"What are you talking about?" Derek asked
"We have been dating for what, a week? And it's been the good kind of dating, the kind where you spend every waking moment with the other person. But every single conversation we have always ends up with you talking about Madison, I didn't mind at first, you were just getting over her, but now its annoying to the point where I'm standing right next to you, trying to have a decent conversation, and you cant stop staring at her! I mean if you love her so much, why don't you just marry her?" Meredith rambled, Derek's face feel
"I tried."
"What?" Meredith asked sharply, she was very mad
"The night that Addison broke up with me, I proposed. I had gone to my mom's house in Connecticut, so that she could help me pick out the ring. When I got back, Addison was really weird and then I did, and asked, and she broke up with me. So I went to Ohio, to see my other sister, forget the world, you know?" Derek explained. Meredith was speechless, "I loved her-I wanted to have a life with her."
There was a long silence that was interrupted by the elevators doors opening, but they didn't get off.
"So what now?" Meredith asked
Okay, so that's all I can handle for now, and it's kind of a cliff hanger, but only slightly.
So, you find out a little more about the whole Addison and Derek mishap, but if you combine this information with the info from the last chapter this is what you get: Derek goes to Connecticut to buy an engagement ring, meanwhile back at home, Addison sleeps with Mark. Derek comes home, pops the question and not being able to tell the truth; Addison finds it easier to break up with him, nice, eh?
And now what's gonna happen…? I dunno, actually I do know but that's a technicality.
SO as for the "Grey's Anatomy Desperate Fan Contest" you have until Sunday November 19th 2006 to submit your entries in a review. Good Luck!
Read,
review and stay tuned…
