Derek met Meredith outside her locker room. They went to their appointment with Addison and Derek answered Addie's questions before she proceeded with the tests.

Now Derek and Meredith were driving home, well to his home anyway. They had picked up their Indian dishes that Derek had pre-ordered and were almost at his place.

"Where are you taking me?" Meredith asked curiously. They were obviously on the out skirts of town.

Derek focused on driving up the gravel road, and through the gate that he had left open the other morning.

Meredith's eyes widened at the view in front of her. There was a little trailer with a veranda built on in the middle of one of the most beautiful pieces of land that she had ever come across.

"What is this place?" she asked as Derek pulled up.

Derek climbed out of the car before opening her door and leading her onto the veranda. Derek put down their take away. He pulled Meredith into his arms and sighed. "When I found out that I had the job here the first thing I did was go to the real estate website, scouring for our perfect home and I found this." he told her.

Meredith couldn't help but giggle. "A trailer is your perfect home?" she asked.



Derek shook his head. "No, I wanted this land to build our prefect home. I say our Mer because before I found this place I already knew I wanted to build us a home. A home four our family, which we are already starting. But I won't build that home Mer until I do this." He told her as he pulled away and dropped to one knee.

"Meredith you are the love of my life. My world spins only for you. I wake in the morning with the need to see your smiling face, to hear your melodic voice and to get lost in your eyes. I want you to feel my love as strongly as I feel yours. I don't want sleep over's, I want a home for you and me. But most of all Mer, I want you, I need you and I love you." Derek opened the box that had been resting in his hands. "Meredith Grey will you do me the greatest honour of becoming my wife?" he asked.

Meredith looked down at him. Tears were welling in her eyes. "You're not just asking because of the baby are you?" she asked hesitantly.

Derek shook his head. "No, I brought this ring 2 months ago. I have just had a hard time finding the right time to ask you. Plus I wanted your father's permission first."

Meredith was in complete awe. "You asked my dad's permission?"

Derek nodded. "I did unofficially yesterday and officially today. "he told her "but Mer, can you please give me and answer because the wooden decking is hurting my knee and your lack off an answer is breaking my heart.'



Meredith pulled Derek to his feet. She crushed her lips against his. "Yes Der, oh my god yes." she told him when she finally broke the kiss."

"Thanks for that" he sighed as he slipped the ring on her finger. "I can't wait to make you Meredith Shepherd." Meredith smiled at him as she laced her fingers with his.

"I better feed you now." he told her.

Meredith giggled, "yeah I am eating for two." she joked.
