Thanks to everyone who reviewed I deeply appreciate it! Although many of you thought I was continuing their trip in Disney, well we've moved onto where they come home and Derek receives some horrible family news.
Meredith continued to put away vacation clothes two days after they had arrived home. She had just finished putting the clothes away when, the phone rang. Meredith quickly put the clothes in her hand into the drawers and answered the phone before it could wake up any of the girls.
"Hello" said Meredith. She listened as Kathleen rambled on in tears, about Derek's mother. His mother had just had a heart attack and died almost instantly. Meredith covered her mouth as tears came pouring down her face. They needed Derek in New York before or in two days before the wake. Meredith and the girls were of course told to come too. Meredith talked to Kathleen trying to calm her down and then told her she would call Derek and tell him. She hung up the phone and sighed, Derek had been through so much with his father. How was he going to take this?

Derek had just scrubbed out of a craniotomy and had changed and was driving home when he received a page.
911 Home
After reading this page he quickly sped through all the lights and raced off into his drive-way and pulled in and jumped out. He ran into the door and saw Meredith sitting at the table staring at her hands, her eyes rimmed red obviously due to crying.
"Meredith what is going on?" asked Derek. "Is it one of the girls? Are you okay? What's going on?" asked Derek
"Derek I'm fine and so are the girls. I need you to sit down though." said Meredith as he sat down.
"Alright I'm sitting now tell me." said Derek
"Derek, I don't know how to say this." said Meredith as she took his hand in hers.
"Mere just tell me." said Derek as he nervously stroked her hand with his thumb.
"Derek, today you're mother had a heart attack." said Meredith slowly.
"Is she okay? Should I call Nancy or Kathleen or Anna or Jane?' asked Derek as he sat up and rambled on.
Meredith eyes filled with tears as they began to make their way down her cheek." I'm so sorry Derek." said Meredith as she stroked his hand.
"No. No. She can't be dead! It has to be a mistake. "said Derek getting up and pacing.
"I'm so sorry Derek." said Meredith as she got up and went to hug him.
"No." said Derek as he angrily punched their cabinet." I can't. It's not right not both parents right now!" he said as Meredith took him into his arms as he just stood there staring his eyes almost blanking over.
"I'm so sorry." said Meredith as she hugged him.
Short but that was mainly just a filler! The funeral which is more Mer/Der is up next, so if you want a real Mer/Der chapter. Review!
