Not much to say, so let's just get on with it.
Disclaimer: NO!
Four more days... Oh, god.
SLAP!
"You cheated!" Meredith screamed at Derek.
"No I didn't!"
"Whatever..."
A few seconds pass.
SLAP!
"Stop cheating!"
"I'm not cheating! You're cheating! You stop cheating!"
"Hey! I'm not cheating!"
"Fine, just keep going."
A few more seconds later...
SLAP!
"Okay, I'm done with this! You are such a cheater!" Meredith yelled.
Derek laughed, "You are such the cheater! You stop!"
"Okay, fine. We are so done playing this." Meredith said from her seat on top of the coffee table. Derek was sitting on a chair facing the table, cards in between them. She started to clean up the cards, "You know, its sad really that you feel like you have to cheat in a simple game of slap jack." Derek started to laugh again. "I mean, if you're trying to compensate for something just get a-" Meredith couldn't complete her sentence, Derek pulled her onto his lap and captured her lips with his. She dropped the cards from her hands and started to play with his hair. Derek pulled away and whispered in her ear, "Do I have to compensate for something?"
Meredith looked down and laughed, "Well... I guess-..."
She was interupted by the doorbell. The two looked at each other, then Meredith jumped up, "PIZZA!" She ran to the door, on the way grabbing her purse. She flung open the door, retrieved the pizza, and paid the delivery boy. She closed the door and started laughing all the way to the kitchen.
Derek looked up at her with a puzzled expression. "I'm not even gonna ask."
Meredith laughed even harder at this. "That delivery boy was checking out my boobs."
Derek laughed. "But everyone checks out your boobs."
Meredith stopped. "What? What are you talking about? No one checks out my boobs!"
"Mer, when we were at the grocery store yesterday, like three guys were checking you out, and you were totally oblivious. Weren't you wondering why I just started to make out with you for no reason?"
"Well, not really..."
Derek laughed.
----
Meredith sat in Derek's arms on the couch. They were watching The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Meredith was scared shitless. She didn't like scary movies, they gave her nightmares. Derek knew this when he went to rent a video. Whenever it got to an especially scary or gross part in the movie, she inched closer and closer to him, until she was on his lap. After she couldn't be more on top of him, she would lift his shirt up and hide her head underneath it. Then, after a couple minutes, she would make her way out of the shirt. Derek laughed at her each time.
"Derek?" She whispered.
"Yeah, Mer..." He whispered back.
"Can we watch something else?"
"Um, yeah, the bag is on the kitchen table."
Meredith didn't move.
Derek looked down at her. "Do you want me to go with you?"
"Yes, please."
Derek laughed a little, "Okay, Mer, I'll walk you into the kitchen."
Meredith got up and pulled Derek up by his hand and led him into the dark kitchen. He smiled as she frowned when she looked in the bag.
"Derek, these are all scary movies, Saw one, two and three? The Shining? The Birds?! Derek! What the hell?"
Derek just stood there, his eyes wide, like he just saw a ghost. He was looking past Meredith, into the darkness. Meredith started to get scared. She didn't want to turn around because she was scared at what Derek was staring at.
"Derek?"
"..."
"Derek, what's wrong?"
Derek slowly raised his arm up and pointed right behind her. He kept on staring, not breaking eye contact with whatever he was staring at.
"Derek! What the hell are you staring at?!"
Derek just kept staring. Meredith, tired and scared of whatever it was, turned around swiftly, and was met by a small black thing jumping into her arms, and something grabbing her from behind. Everything happened so fast, she didn't have time to think of anything, but she was able to produce a loud, ear piercing scream.
"HOLY SHIT!"
She ran to the light switch and turned it on to reveal Derek bent over laughing in his place. She looked down at her hand holding the black thing that jumped on her and found Bear. She looked back up at Derek. He was still laughing. She walked calmly into the living room and sat down on the couch with Bear. A few minutes later, Derek walked in and sat down next to Meredith.
"You scared the shit out of me!!"
Derek couldn't keep his laughter in any longer. "I'm sorry, but it was hilarious!" He looked down at Bear and took him out of Meredith's hands. "Bear and I were planning it all day."
Meredith looked up at him and scooted down the couch away from him. "I'm mad at you."
She looked to the television. The scary man in the movie was sawing off body parts. She looked back at Derek, sitting all by himself over on the other side of the couch. She looked back at the television, blood was everywhere. She crawled over to where Derek was and laid her head on his chest, buried her face in it.
"I'm still mad at you." Her muffled voice came out a few seconds later.
He kissed her head and said, "Sure you are."
Okay, another chapter, fluff, no Finn thoughts, just think of it as the calm before the storm.
Oh, and Bear. I totally forgot about Meredith's dog. So Bear is Meredith's dog, don't feel bad if you forgot about him, I did. Aren't a good fic author?
Please review! Thanks.
