The next morning I woke from the chair I was sleeping in next to her bed. My back was aching and my body was stiff from sleeping in such an uptight position but I didn't feel comfortable leaving her alone after what just happened yesterday. I look over to the bed to see her sleeping so peacefully. Suddenly a very loud sound erupts from her mouth. I chuckle as I move to the window. I see a car coming fast up the drive way. I watched a man with red hair get out of the car and hustle over to the door. I heard a loud banging on the door and the maid screech as the man just pushed her out of the way walking into the house.
I sigh as I walk down the hallway towards the loud fight coming from the foyer.
I walk towards the commotion and I tilt my head smiling at him. "You never do things the easy way do you?" I said leaning against the wall.
"Oh please. Quit with the dreamy look shit. It doesn't work on me. I am dude. I kick asses like yours for a living." He says tilting his head and narrowing his eyes.
"Did you forget who you were talking to?" I say raising my eyebrow as he walks closer to me.
"Bring it on princess." He says motioning for me to come and get him.
Meredith poked her head out of the door at that moment. "Derek?"
"Meredith, there is someone I would like you to meet. This is Owen Hunt the man I told you about yesterday." I say turning to look at Meredith.
Meredith comes out of her room and runs to my side clinging to my arm. Owen looks at me and raises an eyebrow and gets a cocky smile. "Hello Meredith. So Derek do you take jobs based on looks of the client alone or does importance of there job make a difference." I scowl at his choice of words. "I don't even see why you can't handle a crazy ass fan." He says.
I got a feeling in the pit of my stomach; in my line of work you pay attention to those. I look around and Owen tenses up as well. Something is off. "Owen, stay with her." I say as I draw my gun.
"Derek, no don't leave me alone." Meredith says ripping her arm away from Owen's grasp and running to me.
"Meredith you need to stay with Owen. I am just going to find out what's going on." I tell her, my fingers caressed the soft curve of her cheek.
I make my way out side I hear a gun shots and screams from the house.
Running back in the room I see George and Owen lying on the floor and a masked figure jumping out the window.
I run to the window and see the masked figure running into the bushes. I shut the window and lock it and close all of the curtains in the room.
"Meredith, where are you? MEREDITH!!!!!" I scream as I lean down and check George's pulse then going over to Owen. As I lean down to Owen his hand shoots up grabbing mine and pulling me down next to him.
"Look at me." Owen whispers as I look in his eyes. "Take her now. GO! Go to the safest place you know. George is gone and I can't help you now. I will stay here and take care of this and help Yang. Take her and go." He says gesturing his head over to the bed. I walk over and kneel down to look under the bed.
I see Meredith under the bed shaking in shock. I pulled her out from under the bed and into my arms. "Meredith we need to go." I said whispering into her hair.
"George. He just shot George and Owen. He just came in the window and shot them. I mean what kind of person does that Derek." Meredith whispers into my neck. I cup the back of her head as we start to move to the door.
Suddenly the doors burst open and the blonde from the pool runs in as I draw my gun pointing it at the door. Meredith reached out and I lowered my gun. I saw a change in Meredith's air around her sister. "Izzie get your stuff we are leaving in 5 minutes." Izzie's eyes widened and she ran out of the room.
Five minutes later Izzie was standing by the door waiting for Meredith with 4 bags by her feet. The blonde tapped her foot impatiently. The maid began to bring them out to the car as I came up behind Izzie taping her on the shoulder motioning for her to be quiet and telling her to follow me with my hands. Izzie followed me to where Owen was waiting along with Meredith. Blood was soaking Owen's shoulder and it looked like he was quickly fading so I needed to work fast.
"I need you both to be silent as we go to the car. No talking, no whispering, no noise of any kind. Have I made myself clear?" I say looking intently at both women, Meredith nods and I lead them in the opposite direction of the car the maid was packing the bags in.
As we near the car Izzie looks around and starts yelling "Oh no. I am not going any where in that thing and I need my bags! I am not going anywhere without my stuff!" I grab Meredith's arm and run the last few feet to the car.
Pulling Meredith in front of me I pull the car door open and shove her inside as a bullet grazes her leg. She screams in pain as I lift her legs inside the car. I run around the hood, jumping in starting it and peeling out of the driveway as Owen provides cover fire.
As I get down by the driveway I hear the gunfire stop. Looking in the rear view mirror I see Izzie standing over Owen with a gun. The masked figure reaches into Owen's pocket a few seconds later my cell phone rings. I flip it open.
"You are pissing me off Shepherd. Just let me do my job. You know you will fail, again. I will get her just like I got your last little media darling, you remember that don't you? You want to watch this one die in front of you too. I will put you out of your misery too. So just bring the little ungrateful bitch back here or you will pay in ways you can only imagine." The masked figure says into the phone.
Suddenly I hear another voice from the other side of the phone. "I think you and your little bitch ass girlfriend will pay first you scum sucking bastard." I hear a gun go off as I see Izzie hit the ground.
