Thanks for the reviews guys it means a lot! I love knowing what all of you think.

Meredith left work at 7 o'clock with Izzie that night to go home and set up a dinner for her and Derek. She put the takeout bags in the oven so they would stay warm and set the table. After the table was set Meredith decided to sit in the living room and watch TV until Derek came home. Around 7:30 she heard the front door open and Derek drop his brief case by the door and hang his jacket on the coat rack before going in search of her.

"Mer." He yelled walking down the hallway towards the kitchen.

"I'm in the living room." She called as she saw him appear in the doorway. He sat on the couch next to her and pulled her into his arms,.

"What's with dinner?" He asked before giving her a kiss on her lips.

"Well that is a surprise." She responded while climbing into his lap.

"Come on I hate suprises, can't you just tell me?"

"No I can't but we can go eat and then after dinner I will think about telling you my surprise."

"Whatever you say Mrs. Shepherd lead the way."

Halfway through dinner the small talk had finally ended and Derek turned to Meredith.

"So do I get to know the surprise yet?" He asked the mcdreamy smile going from ear to ear.

"yea... well I'm pregnant." She blurted out causing Derek to choke on his drink.

"Wait a minuter pregnant as in having a baby pregnant?" Derek asked his eyes becoming wider.

"Yes pregnant as in having a baby pregnant, do you need the whole birds and the bees talk." She asked the smile spreading on her face.

"No I don't need the birds and the bees talk, it's just so sudden and it's not like we were trying or anything."

"I know, but we did talk about it and decided that when the time was right whatever happened happened so I guess now the time is right." She said still smiling.

"Your not freaking out." He said getting up from the table and pulling her up to her feet.

"No I mean I did at first, but now I'm happy, excited even i can't wait for the baby to come and for all of us to be a happy family together." She said quickly before he pulled her face to his.

"I can't wait either, having a baby with you is one of the most wonderful things that I could ask for." He said staring her straight in the eyes and seeing the smile break out on her face. "Now I'm thinking that we should celebrate." He said his eyes suddenly shining with excitement.

"Whatever you say Dr. Shepherd." Was her response as she jumped up and wrapped her legs around his waist smothering him in passionate kisses.

"So are you going to come with me when I tell the chief." Meredith asked as they walked into the hospital holding hands.

"Nope your on your own." He said trying to keep a straight face but was failing miserably, as her jaw dropped. "I'm totally kidding I would never make my beautiful wife and the mother of my future child do this on her own."

"Good save Der, but the sweet talking will not get you anywhere and I'm already feeling nauseous so don't try to sweet talk me."

"Awwww well can I get you anything ginger ale, crackers, anything at all to settle your stomach.

"No, but thats nice that you offered. Now why don't we go and get this over with before I loose my courage."

"Yea lets go." Was Derek's response as he ushered her into the elevator. Once it took off Meredith was taking deep breaths trying to relieve the nauseous feeling in the pit of her stomach. "Mer are you sure your alright."

"Derek I'm fine can you stop worrying already. I'm pregnant not terminally ill, it's just a little bit of morning sickness." Was all she could spit out before the door opened and they proceeded to walk down the hall to the chief's office,

"Here goes nothing." Derek said as he pushed the door open to see the cheif sitting behind his desk.

"Well if it isn't my two favorite brain surgeons." The chief said when he saw who walked through the door. "Not that I'm not ecstatic to see both of you this morning, but why are you here early and in my office."

"Well chief we have some news good news, but it is going to compromise the working situation." Derek said looking at the chief.

"I'm going to go out on a limb here and take a guess that Meredith is pregnant." The cheif said now turning his attention to Meredith.

"Wow you should join the CIA or something." Meredith smiled relieved that she didn't have to tell him.

"Well we all already thought it would have happened long before now, so it's no surprise. At any rate congratulations and Meredith we will adjust your schedule when that point comes. Now if you excuse me I have a surgery to get to, but yet again congratulations you too." He said getting up and walking out the door. Meredith sunk all the way down in her chair and let out a deep breath.

"Thank god that's over." She laughed and turned used Derek's hands to pull herself out of the chair.

"Yea that was probably the easiest one now we have to tell everyone else." He said leaning down and putting a gentle kiss on her lips.
