Derek couldn't help but feel overwhelming joy as his hand lingered on Meredith's stomach, feeling their maybe baby. They were lost there for a second, both starring into eachother's eyes. It was a gentle moment of peace between the two and nothing else mattered in those briefs seconds, not Addison, not Richard, nothing, just the two of them.

"I love you" Derek said softly as his hand remained on Meredith's stomach

"I love you too" she said again with tears welling in her eyes.

Derek suddenly couldn't take it anymore, he shoved her against the wall and began to kiss her. He kissed everywhere on her face. He kissed her forehead, her jaw, her cheek, and made his way as he passionately kissed her lips

"I've loved you for forever" he said as he kissed her neck

"And I already love our baby" he stated as his hand once again made its way to Meredith's stomach

Meredith wrapped her arms around him and kissed him sweetly.

"I want the rest of my chocolate cake" she said breaking away from him

Derek picked her up and smiled at her as he brushed a stand of hair out of her face

"Anything for you" he said softly as he sat her back down on the bed and cradled her.

Meredith and Derek spent the night wrapped in eachother's arms, Derek's hand remained on Meredith's stomach as they slept.

Meredith woke up before Derek the next morning. She slept the best she had slept in months. She noticed how peaceful and sweet Derek looked beside her. He was curled up so close to her. She found herself rubbing the side of his face and kissing his forehead. She loved how protective he already became over her. The way he already loved their baby was the sweetest thing in the world to her.

"Morning" he said sleepily as he awoke

"Morning baby" he said as he placed his hand on Meredith's stomach

"Derek" Meredith said sadly

"What happens when we go back home, what are you going to do about Addison, I mean I can do this by myself I don't need any help, I don't want to ruin your marriage" Meredith whimpered

"Look at me" Derek demanded

Meredith continued to look down

"Mer, I love you, Only you. This baby is the best thing that has ever happened to me. My marriage was long over before Addison came to Seattle, it was over before she slept with Mark, it's been over for a very long time. When we get back to Seattle, I'm signing the divorce papers and I'm ending it" He stated

"Okay" Meredith said with a small smile.

Derek kissed her gently.

Richard was pacing his office, Derek and Meredith were set to perform the surgery at any moment.

"Richard" Mr. Ramblings from the board said as he sat in the office

"Ferris" Richard said in acknowledgment

"I'm sorry to have had to put this much pressure on you" Ferris said snidely

"I can handle it" Richard shot back

"Does your surgeon know that if he doesn't save the King you're fired?" Ferris asked with a grin

"No, he doesn't"

"How did you get him to operate?"

"I told him if he was successful, he might be chief"

Ferris laughed deeply "Always protecting your own ass Richard" Ferris said

"Is that not the same thing you've been doing for years?" Richard shot back

"Go ahead and give them a call, I want to make sure everything is set"

Richard called Meredith's cell phone

"Hello" she answered

"It's Richard, are you and Derek scrubbed in yet?" Richard asked

"No, not yet, Der- Dr. Shepherd is just talking to the patient but we will be in the next half hour"

"Okay Meredith, I want you to call me every hour and update me on what is happening"

"I can do that" she said

"Tell Derek, I know he'll do his best"

"Bye Richard"

"Goodbye Meredith"

"You two must come for the celebration banquet scheduled for Monday night" The king said merily

"I don't think you'll be up for that so soon, you're having brain surgery" Derek told him

"Nonsense, I will be fine, I want my two favorite doctors there" the king said as he took Meredith's hand

"We'll be there" Meredith said with a smile

"Send my wife in" the king said to the guards.

The kings wife came and sat by his bed. They exchanged words all in another language but you could sense the love just the same.

"Thank you, thank you" the woman said with tears in her eyes to Meredith and Derek. They both smiled at her knowing that she had no idea of any English. She was probably just told what thank you meant.

"This is my whole world" the king said to Derek as he placed a kiss on her cheek. Derek smiled at them and placed his arm around Meredith's back. Meredith smiled up at him.

Derek and Meredith began to scrub in

"Hey this is a 6 hour surgery, I don't want you on your feet so much" Derek said to Meredith as he washed his hands

"I told Richard I would update him every hour, so I can sit then"

"If you start to feel sick or weak, I want you to tell me and go sit down"

"Derek you don't have to be so overbearing" Meredith said with an eye roll

"Get used to it, that's our baby in there, and I'm not going to let anything jeopardize it."

Meredith leaned up and kissed him. "Are you ready?" she asked.

Derek smiled and they made their way into the OR.

Meredith called Richard every hour to update like promised. There were a few complications but Derek was able to remove the tumor. Meredith let the chief know and relief was evident in his voice. Derek and Meredith informed the family that the tumor was removed; they just had to wait for the king to wake up.

As they sat around the hospital waiting Meredith got an idea

"Since we're already here and have nothing to do, do you want to get an ultrasound and see the baby?" she asked sheepishly

"Lets go" Derek said with a huge grin leading her to find a doctor.

Okay so I was so excited to read all my reviews. This was just a filler chapter, and the next chapter I want to be really long. The next chapter will be the return to Seattle and all that entails. Although things seem to be great for Meredith and Derek right now things may not be so easy when they get back home. Also sorry the chapter is short, I just really wanted a happy fluffy filler before the bomb goes down! R &R my dears!
