"Derek...Oh my god, Derek!" Meredith said as she shook Derek awake.
"Hmm..." He moaned as he rolled over. She shoved him with her hand, causing him to open his eyes. "Morning..." He muttered as he rolled over.
"It's nine thirty!" Meredith shouted as she jumped out of bed. "Anna has to be to school at nine. It's nine-thirty! Jane is off." She said as she pulled on a pair of jeans and a shirt.
"Shit!" Derek said as he jumped out of bed and joined her.
"What kind of parents are we?" Meredith said sadly as she began to walk out of their room, not bothering to brush her hair or teeth.
"The horny kind." He said with a shrug. "I love it, I mean it's great...but shit. I can't..." Derek said as he followed her.
"Oh, so now I'm too horny? You don't want sex? I can do something about that." She snapped. She quickly walked into Anna's room. She walked into the bathroom and her closet.
"She's gone!" Meredith screamed as she ran out of her room, and began looking in the other room upstairs.
"What do you mean, she's gone?" Derek asked in shock.
"She's..." Meredith trailed off as she ran around the upstairs. Derek rushed downstairs and began searching.
"Anna!" Derek screamed as he looked. He search was turning up nothing.
"Anna?" Meredith screamed as she ran downstairs and began to run outside. The door opened as she neared it. Drew walked in with a grin. "Anna! Have you seen Anna?" Meredith asked in a panic.
"I have to say..." Drew said slowly. "You guys are crappy parents." He said with a shrug as he walked into the kitchen.
"Drew, have you seen her?" Derek asked angrily as he followed Drew into the kitchen.
"Of course I have." Drew said as he poured himself a cup of coffee.
"When?" Meredith asked as she neared him.
"Um, when I took her to school this morning." He said nonchalantly as he sat down at the kitchen table and read the paper.
"You took her to school?" Derek asked with surprise.
"Yep. Poor kid was down here when I got up. She was eating her cereal." Drew said as he shook his head.
"She didn't wake us up." Meredith said quickly as she and Derek exchanged a look.
"She tried. I guess she knocked on the door. That's what happens when you stay up all night getting it on." He said quickly, without looking up at them.
"We're bad parents! We can't even get our daughter to school without her nanny. And now I'm pregnant. With twins. And we...we're shitty parents!" Meredith cried as she walked away.
"Mer!" Derek said quickly. She waved her hand and kept walking. "Mer!" Derek said, once again. "Thanks, Drew. Thanks a fucking lot!" Derek said as he shook his head and jogged up the stairs.
Meredith laid back down in her bed. Why didn't she even bother getting up? She may as well just stay in bed forever. What was she thinking, getting pregnant? She not a mom. She can't be a mom. She's too wrapped up in everything. And the sex. She was horny. The hormones were killing her. She craved him. All of the time, she craved him. And now it was biting her in the ass. She didn't wake up to take her daughter to school because she was too busy getting it on with her husband.
"Mer..." Derek said as he laid in the bed and joined her. "This isn't a big deal..."
"Not a big deal?" Meredith snapped as she looked up at him. "We didn't wake up. We can't even take care of a six year old. And now we're going to have babies. Two." She said as she looked into his eyes.
"Meredith, we will be fine. It will be fine. Anna was fine. Drew took her to school. If he hadn't, we would have. She would have been late... Mer, you are not a bad mother. Anna is happy, she's taken care of, and most importantly, she is loved, and she knows it." He said as he rubbed her back.
"What if we don't wake up? What if the twins lay there for hours because we didn't wake up?" Meredith said in a panic.
"Meredith! It will be fine..." He said as he tried to soothe her. "We'll just have to make sure that we get to bed at a decent hour. And we'll have the baby monitors. You will be a wonderful mother." Derek said as he continued to rub her back. "It will be amazing. Once you have them, your motherly instinct will go into overdrive." He said reassuringly.
"Really?" Meredith asked with a hopeful look.
"Yes." He quickly told her. He heard his pager on his hip go off. "I have to call." He said as he walked over and grabbed their phone, calling the hospital.
Meredith walked into the bathroom and looked in the mirror. Maybe Derek was right. Maybe the motherly instinct would kick in. She was hoping. She was praying. She looked down at her swollen abdomen. It was getting bigger by the day. She had to smile. Her children were inside of her right now. They were growing. She was supporting them. She was their lifeline. That made her feel better than anything anyone could say.
"Everything okay?" Meredith asked as she walked out of the bathroom, looking better than she did going in.
"Yeah. A patient coded, but he's stable now." Derek said as he looked at her. She looked perfect, standing there in her jeans and tee shirt.
"Go." Meredith said with a smile.
"I'm fine." Derek said with a faint smile.
"No. You're worried. You need to go check on him. You'll be distracted anyway, you may as well check him and do rounds." Meredith said as she crossed the room and laid her head against his chest.
"You're sure?" He asked as he looked down at her.
"I'm sure." She said as she looked up and kissed him softly. "Besides, I'm sure Drew and I can figure out something to do..." She said with a giggle.
"Funny..." Derek said, shaking his head. "You're lucky I know better." He said as he looked into her eyes.
"Yes, I am." Meredith said as she returned his gaze.
"So why is he here, anyway? And why is he staying in our house?" Derek said with a confused look on his face.
"Hell if I know. I thought you asked him to stay." Meredith said with confusion.
"Nope." Derek said with head shake.
"I should probably take a run." She said as she walked over to her dresser and grabbed out her clothes.
"Mer, you have got to take it easy..." He said as he looked at her.
"I will. Addison said it was okay. I need to run. I just need the time to myself." She said with a smile.
"Okay. I'll be back in a couple of hours." He said as he kissed her on the forehead and walked out.
Meredith pulled her stretchy jogging pants on, and a tank top. It was a warm morning, but she needed to run. It made her feel better. She wished she had done it all her life. It was the only time when she could be alone, when she could think. She jogged downstairs to see Drew sitting in a chair, playing on his Blackberry.
"Where are you going?" He asked as he glanced up. He almost had to laugh. She was cute. Her once thin frame now had a big baby bump in the middle of it. It wasn't wide, it was straight out in front of her.
"What?" She asked as she noticed him looking at her.
"Nothing." He laughed as he continued to stare.
"I'm a cow, right?" Meredith asked with a frown.
"No. No, Mer, you look great. I just-- I never would have thought-- The first time I saw you in the bar, I never thought that it would be like this." He said with a chuckle.
"What, that I'd marry your cousin, and be a huge incubator for his children?" She asked.
"Yeah, something like that." He said quickly. That wasn't what he was thinking, not at all.
"Well, I'll be back." She said as she opened the door and walked out onto the porch.
"Were are you going?" He asked as he followed her.
"Running." She said as she began to stretch her aching body.
"Oh, what a coincidence, I like to run." He said with raised eyebrows.
"No. I just want to run alone." Meredith said as she looked over at him.
"Well, you kind of forfeited that when you asked me to lie to your husband. And as long as your stalker is out there, I'm not leaving your side." He said as he walked into the house. "I'll go change."
"Seriously?" She asked with a frown.
"Seriously." He yelled from the stairs.
She rolled her eyes and jogged off. He was running with her, he was going to have to catch up. She started down the dirt path. A small amount of apprehension washed over her. He wasn't a stalker. Sure, he was creepy. And he was a snake. But he didn't follow her. He didn't pursue her. It just happened when they were in the same place at the same time. She just prayed that she was right. She prayed that he wouldn't follow her.
"Hey!" Drew shouted as he finally caught up. Meredith kept running along.
"So you finally caught up?" She joked as he looked over at him, sweat on his brow.
"I always catch up...eventually." He laughed as he jogged alongside her.
"You don't jog." Meredith said simply as she glanced over.
"I do too. I work out four times a week. Did you think my body was just naturally this stunning?" He asked as he motioned to himself. She rolled her eyes. "Wait a minute, you don't jog..." He said quickly.
"I do. I do now. I was getting tired. And sore. It seems to help. If I do it first thing in the morning, I just feel better." She said as she looked over at him. He was in good shape, he wasn't looking strained whatsoever.
"I'm really sorry about what I said. You guys aren't bad parents." Drew said apologetically.
"I know. I'm just hormonal." She told him frankly. "Normally that wouldn't have bothered me."
"So the babies, they take a lot out of you, huh?" He asked as looked down at her baby bump peeking out from her shirt.
"Yeah. It surprising. I thought I would just carry them around for nine months. No so much..." She laughed as she rubbed her stomach. She slowed to a walk.
"Why are you slowing down?" Drew asked as he also slowed to a walk.
"The tree." She said as she approached it. "Fond memories." She giggled as she looked at their tree.
"What?" He said with confusion.
"I use it as a marker. Derek wants me taking it easy. I slow down here." She said as she looked over, her hand still resting on her abdomen.
"They all look the same." He pointed out as he looked around.
"Nope. That's an oak. A very large oak." She said with a laugh as she smiled. "And those are walnut trees." She said as she began laughing even harder.
"I don't get it..." He said as he watched her. "But knowing you, it's probably dirty. You're a GW."
"A what?" She asked as she whipped her head around.
"Gutterwhore. You're mind is always in the gutter. I've come across a few of them. Steph, Marci, Rebecca, Jessica, Ashley, Robin...oh there are so many more..." He said as he looked off into the distance.
"Fond memories?" She said as she shook her head.
"Maybe. But you'll have to ask them..." He said with a laugh.
"I probably don't want to know." Meredith said as she shook her head in disgust.
"Probably not!" He agreed. They both looked up when they heard a loud crack. "What the hell was that?" He asked as he looked around.
"Probably a broken limb." She suggested with a shrug.
"Probably?" He said quickly. "What if it isn't?" He said as he stopped walking and stood there, trying to listen.
"It is." She moaned with irritation. "It's called nature." She said as she walked off.
"This is why someone needs to be with you. You are oblivious and stubborn!" He told her quickly.
"I am not!" She said loudly as she continued walking. "Why are you so freaking worried about it?" She asked with irritation.
"Because I care. Because if something happened to you, I would never be able to forgive myself. Because I worry." Drew finally admitted.
"You worry?" She asked with a chuckle.
"Of course I worry." He said as he came up and threw his arm around her. "You're my girl. Well, not my girl, but... I care." He said as he continued to walk.
"And you stink." She giggled as she pushed his arm down.
"What?" He asked offensively.
"Your pits. They stink." She said with a shrug.
"They do not." He said as he attempted to smell himself. He moved closer to her, shoving himself in her face.
"They do!" She argued as she shoved him away.
"Okay, maybe they do." He finally agreed. "I forgot deodorant when I was rushing to get your daughter to school." He whined.
"And how did that go?" Meredith asked with a smile.
"She's okay, for a brat." Drew joked.
"Yeah. She is. She really is." Meredith agreed with a faint smile. "And she also has a crush on Uncle Drew." Meredith said with a chuckle.
"Oh god..." Drew moaned.
"You are all I heard about last night!" Meredith said as she thought back. "Uncle Drew this. Uncle Drew that."
"What can I say? I'm irresistible!" He said with an arrogant laugh.
"I resisted you." Meredith said quickly, knocking him down a peg.
"Yeah, there was a flaw in that plan. I just haven't figured out what that was yet." He said with a laugh.
"Derek. The flaw is called Derek." She said as she thought about the past.
"Yeah, I suppose that's it." He said sadly as they headed back to the house.
"You haven't eaten breakfast." Drew pointed out.
"I ate a granola bar before I left." Meredith pointed out as she walked into the house and grabbed a bottle of water and handed one to Drew.
"Not good enough. An omelet. You need an omelet." He said as he began grabbing all of the ingredients out of the refrigerator.
"Spinach, broccoli, ham, cheese, onions and peppers." She said as she watched him begin whipping the eggs.
"Yuck. But, okay." He said as he grabbed more food.
"And banana." She winced as she watched his reaction.
"No. I draw the line there. I am not putting fruit in this omelet." He said frankly. "You can add it to the top." He said quickly.
"Fine..." She moaned. "I need to take a shower. I'll be down in a few." She said as she trotted off.
"Thank god, cause you stink!" He yelled as she ran off.
"As do you." She yelled back.
Meredith pulled off her sweat soaked clothes and threw them into a pile on the floor. She turned on the hot water, and slowly climbed in. She was lucky. So lucky to have everyone around her that cared. Most of her life, she felt alone. Not now. Now she was surrounded. She let the soft water pound on her face as she smiled, one hand on her abdomen. She looked over as she heard the bathroom door open.
"That didn't take long." Meredith said happily.
"I rushed. I needed to get home to my gorgeous wife." He said with a huge grin.
"And how would you like to join her in the shower?" Meredith asked as she opened the door.
"Oh yes." He said, as he quickly peeled off his clothing. "And I love the pregnancy hormones."
"I bet you do!" She laughed. He quickly climbed in with a grin. "I missed you..." She muttered happily.
"I was gone two hours." He laughed as he attacked her neck with kisses.
"I know." She agreed. He smiled as she looked up at her for a moment. She felt him move down to her breasts, sucking and teasing each one. His mouth moved down her swollen abdomen.
"Hello Thing One, Thing Two." He said as he kissed her stomach. She stood up and kissed her deeply, then shoved her against the wall, pressing her back against the cold tile.
"Oh Mer..." He whispered. He easily pushed her up, her knees resting on his shoulders. Her swollen abdomen slightly in the way. The hot water trickled down both of their bodies. He looked up into her eyes, and smiled. He softly pressed her legs apart a little farther, and slide his tongue into her warm folds. He could taste her need, her warmth, her heat.
"Oh God Der." She mumbled as she felt him pressing and sliding his tongue in all the right spots. His quickened his pace, as he moved in a swirling motion. "Der, I'm...oh god...I'm..." She squealed as she felt her self tightening up. Derek tasted the warm rush that soon came, his mouth sucking her warm fluids. He felt her beginning to tremble.
"God, Mer..." He muttered as he dropped her feet to the floor and moved his mouth to hers. He tasted her sweetness as his lip sucked her bottom one, causing to to swell.
"Come on, Der...Please...I need you..." She said with need in her eyes. His smile grew as he pulled her legs up, and she tightened them around him. She felt him slide himself into her. "Ohhh..." She moaned as she felt him thrust into her hard. Their bodies both crashing into the wall. She tightened her grip on his shoulder. Her nails dug into his flesh as he thrusted once again, even harder. Her teeth latched onto his skin.
"Oh Mer...Oh baby..." He muttered as he could feel her tightening. She pulled her legs apart father, allowing him deeper penetration.
"Hard Der...Harder!" She shouted. He did as she said and pounded into her harder. "Harder." She screamed as she felt herself teeter at the edge, ready to let herself succumb to the pleasure he was creating. "Oh...god...I'm coming..." She muttered as she felt the hot rush run over her. He felt her warmth encompass his large cock. She felt him release with a loud moan. Her feet dropped to the floor, and they both leaned against the wall, attempting to catch their breath.
"You are amazing." Meredith said breathlessly.
"You are...god I love you." He said with a smile as he pulled her close.
They quickly got dressed and headed down to the kitchen.
"You two are horrible." Drew said as he looked at them both.
"That smells horrible." Derek said as he pointed to the omelet.
"And you smell like sex." Drew pointed out with a laugh.
"Maybe..." Derek said with a chuckle.
"I'm starved. You made me hungry." She laughed as she looked at him. Drew quickly placed the plate in front of her. "I need chocolate syrup. Oh and bananas." She said. They both wrinkled their noses. Derek rushed over and got them. They watched as she placed her toppings on.
"You are disgusting." Drew said as he shook his head.
"But we still love you." Derek said as he kissed her. I am loved!
