So here's Chapter 4. This should explain MOST if not ALL of the confusion. It also kinda shows how close Jaicee and Mer are.

Thank you every one for the great reviews!

In the last chapter there was a paragraph where it said Carmen instead of Christina. I had to do a story for school so I used this and just changed the names. But I copied and pasted from the wrong document, so that's how that got there. I thought I fixed it all, but guess not! Sorry about the confusion!

-------------------------

Christina and Izzie drove us home so they could talk to mom. It was a silent car ride until Izzie and Christina started bickering over who would talk to mom. Christina won because she was her 'person', what ever that means.

When we got to the house I lead Christina up to mom's room even though she seemed to know the way pretty well.

She knocked, no banged, on the door. "Meredith?" Christina said forcefully. Mom didn't answer. She banged harder, "Meredith open this door now!"

"Uggg, I really don't want to talk to anyone right now." Mom yelled. Cristina rolled her eyes.

"Mer, do you even know who this is?" mom was quiet. Cristina sighed with frustration. "It's Cristina! Your person! Remember me? Your best friend that you haven't call for 2 years?"

"Hi Cris! Now go away! Please?" mom yelled from the other side of the door.

Christina tried the handle. Still locked. "Mer open this door now! Come on ill help you. You obviously are sick and from what Jaicee has told be there is something else, some thing more important."

"No just leave me alone for today! Until I feel better!" mom yells back.

"Do you still have that key hidden under the rug?" Cristina asks as she looks at the rug at the end of the hallway.

"No." mom says quietly. Cristina laughs.

"You suck at lying!" she turns and walks to the end of the rug, flips it over and grabs the key. She unlocks the door and walks in. "Spill now!" she demands. I stay hidden by the door.

"What part of I'm sick don't you understand! I really don't feel like talking about my other problems right now!" Mom wines. I here rustling then footsteps and then… throwing up.

"Yes I get that you are sick but I know you have worked when you had the stomach flu and you at least made sure the kids had some food. But you haven't even done that. And lets move onto the bigger and more apparent thing. You're in SEATTLE!" Cristina always got mom to tell what was really going on. Mom walks back to her bed and plops down on it.

She sighs dramatically. "Now I feel like the worst mother ever."

"No you are not. The kids are fine." Cristina said, her voice bordering irritated. "So besides the sickness what made you move back to Seattle? And where is Ty?"

"Hopefully burning in hell." Mom growled sadly.

"What happened to he's the love of my life! He's perfect for me!" Cristina said in a mock tone.

"That all went down the drain when he cheated on me. I had just dropped all the kids off at friends houses. We had the house to our self. When I walked in there he was." Mom sniffed. What a bastard! I can't believe Ty would do that!

Well I've heard enough to keep my brain going for a while so I head back down stairs.

-

"Izzie, do you know who my real dad is?" I ask randomly when I reach her on the couch. She is silent and starts to play with the sleeve of her sweater. I plop down next to her. I watch Aimee and Nate play go fish with Sadie until Izzie speaks again.

"Yes. Why the sudden interest?" she looks at me.

"Because apparently Ty cheated on mom and they are getting a divorce and it just got me thinking why mom never talks about him. Did they get divorced too?" Izzie goes back to playing with her sweater. She looks up suddenly.

"Did you just say that Ty CHEATED on Mer?"

"Yeah." I say quietly.

"I'm so sorry Jen." She says quietly.

"Its ok. And I kinda go by Jaicee now."

"Ok, Jaicee, now to answer your original question. Yes I do know your real father. They never got married. But I think I should let Meredith tell you the details." She pats my back a little and stands up when Cristina comes down the stairs.

-

After I got all the kiddos in bed, I wandered into moms room.

"Hey bud." My mom says from her bed.

"Hey." I say as I climb into bed with her. I feel like I'm 5 again, crawling into my mommy's bed because of a bad dream or there's a thunder storm. She wraps me in a hug and kisses my head. "So you're ok? Your not gonna like throw up on me are you?"

She laughs a little. Well at least she is feeling better! "I'm ok. Just food poisoning. I think it was from burger king."

"Good cause I was worried." She laughs.

"I noticed." She starts to twist my long brown hair.

"So that much needed talk." I say.

"Yes. Where so you want me to start?" I pause. That's a good question. What do I want to know first?

"So, Ty cheated on you?" Ok so that probably wasn't the best way to word it, but that was how it popped into my head.

"Yeah" she says quietly. "but we are getting a divorce."

"So that means we are staying here permanently?" I'm hoping we will go back to Nevada, that's where all my friends are, my dance team, and not to mention ALL of our stuff!

"Yeah, I'm afraid so." Well this sucks.

"We're gonna get all of our stuff though right?"

"Yeah it'll be here soon. Ill have Mae pack it all up, and sell the house." Mae is my best friend Connors mom. They lived a few houses down from us. Mae is a realtor, so it shouldn't be a problem.

"That's good." She kisses the top of my head as we slip into a comfortable silence.

"Can you tell me about my dad? And why you two arnt together anymore, and why you never talk about him." Mom takes in a deep breath.

"We dated when I was an intern. He was and attending. Sorta against the rules, but Cristina and Burke were doing the same thing, so no one could complain. He had perfect brown hair, and deep blue eyes. That's where you got it from. We called him McDreamy. And when you are trying to be charming and get your way, you look just like him. Other wise you look like me." She smiles at me. Its good to know where I get my hair and eyes from.

"What happened then? It seems like you two were fine."

"well... his WIFE showed up."

"Oh ouch!"

"Yeah ouch. So he had a choice, me- the woman he hadn't known for more that a few months, or the woman he had been married to for 11 years."

"And he chose her. But why was he with you in the first place? He's no better that Ty." I ask.

"Well he moved to Seattle when he found his best friend and is wife together."

"So she cheated on him first. So I guess that's a little better, but he was still married." mom smiled.

"I raised such a smart child." She laughs.

"I know." I say. "So finish the story."

"Well for a year he and his wife stayed in Seattle. And the whole time he wouldn't stop looking at me. Then prom came, he left and you were born."

"Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't prom only for high schoolers?" mom laughs again.

"The chief's dieing nice missed her prom so we had it at the hospital. Everyone was there; McDreamy with his wife and me with fin."

"Finn? Nice name." I giggle.

"Yes Finn my TEMPORARY boyfriend." I raise my eyebrow at her.

"Geese mom, you really do have boy issues."

"Hey!" she said in mock hurt.

"So does this McDreamy have a name?" she just looks at me, deciding weather or not to tell me.

"Yes." I look at her expectantly. "Derek Shepherd."

"Jenevieve Shepherd, Jaicee Shepherd, Meredith Shepherd. Nope doesn't sound very

good." Mom laughs and hugs me tighter.

---------------------

Did that explain things better? I hope it did. So tell me what you think! Reviews are greatly appreciated!

The next chapter will be a few days later when they get all there stuff. And Derek comes into the picture!
