"Oh honey I'd be honored! But," she paused, "on one condition." Meredith looked questioningly at her. "Don't call me Mrs. Shephard again. It makes me feel so, erm, OLD! Call me mom or Elise." Meredith smiled and nodded, "Thank you mom. I really do feel like I've known you my whole life." She hugged Elise then knelt down to Dani.
"Dani, sweetie, would you like to go to your grammy's for the night?" Dani nodded and jumped in Elise's arms. Meredith laughed and kissed her daughter on the forehead. "Goodnight sweetie, have fun." Dani kissed Meredith's nose, "I LOVE U MOMMY! Dani pwomises to have buwndwes of fun!" With that Elise took Dani and left Meredith and Derek alone to talk.
Derek looked toward Meredith, "So," he paused, "We're alone." She nodded and smiled, "We're alone." A devlish grin spread across his face, "Well, what do you say we get out of here and go celebrate." She perked up at the idea and quickly grabbed her things and was practically out the door before he could even pay their bill.
She had waited two years to be back in his arms, to be back in the heat of passion with him. She was ready to make passionate love to him exposing her undying love for him.
He watched her. She was ready to celebrate. Her anxiety illuminated the room. Her passion when looking at him burned his soul. He knew had had to get her back to her hotel room, and fast, otherwise he was going to rip her clothes off of her right then and there.
Fire danced in their eyes on the way back to the hotel. They said not a word, only exchanged longing stares as if reading one anothers mind. Once they reached the hotel, the both ran for the elevator like two kids playing tag. The woman behind the counter watched them as they playfully chased one another, and just smiled. "Ah to be young and in love," she thought to herself.
The minute the elevator closed, Derek cupped Meredith's face in his hands. "I know this is sudden, Mer, and I know we need to take thing sslowly, but, I want you. I;ve wanted you every day for the past two years. I want to hold you close to me, feel you around me, make love to you all night long. I've never stopped loving you, and tonight, I want to prove to you how deep my love runs." He kissed her and stared deep into her eyes.
Before she could reply, the elevator opened, and Derek reached down and picked her up. He carried her all the way to their room. "Close your eyes," he told her. "What?" She questioned. "I said, close your eyes, I have to check on something real fast," He smiled as she reluctantly closed her eyes and sighed.
Derek walked into the room, looking around at the sight that lay in front of him. Hundreds of yellow rose petals laying sporadically around the bed. Lavendar scented candles were illuminting the photos he had had strategically placed throughout the room. He took a deep breath, smiled and opened the door, "My lady." She took a step into the room and the sight took her breath away.
She tenderly touched all the photos she passed on her way through the room. Each one a memory they had together. She didn't know Derek had kept all of these. She could remember some of them just like yesterday. She sat on the edge of the bed just looking around, taking in everything she left behind two years ago. She looked up at him, leaning in the doorway smiling at her. "Derek, I dont know what to say, its all so, beautiful." She was crying again. She was getting pretty good at that.
Derek walked toward her and bent down and looked her square in the eye, "Meredith Grey, don't be sorry for leaving me. Don't have any regrets. Mer, you and I both know, things turned out better this way. We learned for ourselves we couldn't live without one another and now we realize to cherish every moment we have together. If you hadn't have left we probably would have continued the vicious cycle that was our lives then: Pain and Hurt." He wiped her tears gently away and kissed her eyes before whispering to her, "Meredith Grey, I love you with every ounce of my being and I promise, from this day on, I will never leave yours or Dani's side."
He gently laid her back onto the bed of roses and kissed her softly. She stared into his deep blue eyes, yearning for him, silently begging him to make love to her. He slowly unbuttoned her shirt and kissed her soft skin as he exposed it. Her senses tingled at the warmth of his lips, gently caressing her bare skin. He slowly slipped the rest of her shirt off of her before momentarily making a mental picture of her in the candlelight.
She reached toward him, slowly lifting his shirt above his head. She caressed his bare skin, remembering every curve and muscle that she had yearned for for so long. He trembled at her touch, remembering how soft and tender she could be. Their souls intertwining with one another, the sexual tension in the room was exploding.
The warmth of their bodies together was enough to make either of them crazy. They were taking things slow, trying to become reaquainted with one another. He leaned toward her, gently brushing his lips against hers, teasing in a sense. She felt her body ache for him, she felt her insides burn. She tried to pull him into a more intense kiss, but he resisted as he travelled his way down her body until he reached her hips.
He slowly removed her skirt and panties revealing her special area. She moaned as he drew closer to her, his warm breath causing her to tense up. He slowly worked his way down to her, kissing her thighs first, then finding his way to her.
He touched on every spot he remembered her liking, causing her to arch her back and moan in pleasure. She gripped the sheets of the bed, trying with all her might not to grab his hair and force him further into her. She wanted to cherish this moment of passion they were sharing together.
He began to tickle her faster, and she felt herself begin to climax when he slowly made his way back to her lips. They crashed together as he placed himself inside of her causing them both to scream.
He gently rocked with her, going deeper inside of her each time. As he watched her arch in pleasure as the candle light and the reflection of the moon bounce off of her silky skin, he began to feel his passion intensify. He gently laid her back and thrusted into her like a wild animal who hadn't been fed.
The two stared deeply into the others eyes, talking silently, soul to soul. Their looks grew more and more intense as they both climaxed together. Derek gently leaned toward her, kissing her ever so softly, and whispered, "Meredith Grey, I will always love you."
Meredith looked up at Derek with tears in her eyes," Gosh, I can't seem to stop crying today." He laughed at her but let her continue. She rolled him over and placed herself gently on top of his stomach, laying stomach to stomach. She whispered, "Derek, that was the most amazing thing I have ever experienced, and I've experienced alot." They both laughed. "I just cant help but think about how things could have been. All the time we missed out on. Had I not been so scared..." He cut her off by pulling her close and kissing her lips.
"Shh, don't worry about the past, look toward our future. Mine, Yours and Dani's. That's all that matters now." She smiled at him sweetly, the playfully tickled his ribs. The two were rolling around in the sheets tickling one another acting like children when suddenly, the fire in their eyes returned. They were in sync. Mind, body and soul. She lay on top of him, gently kissing his ears and neck, feeling him grow and wanting her more and more.
She slowly made her way down to him where she took him in her mouth and tickled the top of him with her tongue. She was teasing him this time. She remembered exactly what to do to get him excited, and fast. She continued moving her tongue around him as he held on to her head, moaning in pleasure. "Mer, Oh, Mer," she smiled knowing she was pleasing him. She finished him off with one last trick of the tongue before quickly positioning herself around him soon enough to feel him release inside of her.
His warmth flooded her veins and she felt weak from head to toe. She had never enjoyed so much ecstacy in one night, let alone so much love. He reached for her, pulling her close to him, as they lay naked surrounded by rose petals in the soft Seattle Moonlight.
