After Cristina had said that it was Meredith they all rushed to Derek's room to see what was going on. When they got there they were met by Olivia at the nurse's station.

"Olivia, what is going on? Why did you page me about Mer?" Cristina asked.

"I was just walking by when I noticed that Dr. Shepherd was pacing in her room. Then when I looked more carefully I noticed it looked like she was in labor" Olivia explained.

"WHAT?" They all exclaimed.

"Okay, I think we all should back away and let the people closest to Meredith handle this so she's not overwhelmed" the chief said.

"Well I am staying" Cristina said.

"Me too" Izzie said.

"Yeah I am not going anywhere either" George said.

"Well if you are staying then I am too" Alex declared.

"Lexie and me are not going anywhere either" Mark said sternly.

"Hold on there! You are not all going in there!" Bailey said stepping forward.

"Well I am her person so I am not going anywhere" Cristina snapped.

"Okay, I can understand that but you tree" Bailey said as she pointed at George, Izzie and Alex "Look I know you are all friends and all but she can't handle all this people right now so you have to wait. I'm sorry" Bailey said sincerely.

"Now what is your explanation to why you should stay, Sloan?" Bailey asked with raised eyebrows.

"Yeah we live with her and we don't get to see her why should you?" Izzie asked as she crossed her arms over her chest.

"I am Derek's best friend. And that is my best friend's wife who is also my friend so you can not stop me even if you try!" Mark explained.

"And I am her sister so I also have the right to go in there" Lexie said as a matter of factually.

"Fine but the rest of us will go and do our jobs. Let's go people!" Bailey said as only bailey could.

"Okay, let's go and see what is going on with Mer" Cristina said as she walked in the direction of Derek's room.

When they reached the room they could hear Meredith gasping of pain.

They walked over to the door and stood in the doorframe and just looked at Meredith.

Meredith then noticed them looking at her.

"What are you doing her? I am not a monkey you come and look at like in the zoo you know!" Meredith snapped.

"Sorry Mer. We didn't mean to stair at you like that" Lexie said as she made a move walk in to the room.

"Stay right there! I don't need you to babysit me!" Meredith snapped.

Just then another contraction hit.

"Oh sweet mother of god! Do you really hate me that much?" Meredith yelled.

"Meredith you are in labor. You need to let us help you!" Cristina stated.

"No go away! I don't want you here!" Meredith held her hand up to signal them not to come in.

"Mark, do something!" Lexie says as she elbowed him in the ribs.

"What could I possibly say that would make her listen to her? This is where Derek is useful not me. If you need to sweet talk a woman, give me a call. Pregnant women in labor… yeah not my thing…" Mark said shaking his head.

Then they could hear as another contraction hit Meredith.

"Well then sweet talk Meredith in to let us in to help her. I don't care what you have to do to let us in but by the sounds of it if we don't do something soon the baby is going to come in to this world in a couple of hours. And it's going to be all alone except for a mother that is hysterical!" Lexie snapped.

"Okay I get it. You don't have to go all mental on me!" mark said.

Mark cleared his throat will thinking about what the hell to tell Meredith.

"Hey Meredith?" Mark said hesitating.

"What Mark?"

"Well I was thinking maybe that by you ought to let one of us in to have a look on you…"

"Yeah I don't think… so" Meredith said through gritted teeth.

"I think you do!" Mark said now with an idea that Meredith could not turn down.

"Oh yeah! Well what if I don't think so? What will you do then?" Meredith dared.

"Well then I would have no other choice then to get Mom make you!" Mark said now smirking with his plan.

Lexie and Cristina looked at each other confused. Mom? Who the hell were they talking about? Meredith's mother was dead so obviously she couldn't come besides why would Meredith listen to her?

"You wouldn't dare! Besides she is in New York. It would take hours before she would be here!" Meredith said now a little nervous.

Ever since she and Derek had gone serious and he had taken her to meet his family she had gotten close with his mother, Carolyn. They would at least talk ones a week. Derek would complain about it but deep down she knew that he was really happy that they got along that well. After the first visit Meredith had already called Carolyn mom after Carolyn had insisted on it.

"Ah there you are wrong! I called her last night to tell what was going on and she took the first flight out her to see Derek but especially you. Actually right now as we speak a driver is driving her here to the hospital. And I am sure she would agree with us about letting one of us to check you out but if you want to wait on her that is fine by me!" Mark smirked. He knew his plan was perfect. Nobody could turn down Carolyn shepherd. He knew it, Meredith knew it even Carolyn knew it.

The panic on Meredith's face did not do unnoticed by the others. They knew they had her corned and Meredith thought it sucked. It wasn't that she didn't want to have her baby. It was the opposite actually. But she wanted to experience this with Derek and she couldn't do that until he woke up so there for she had to hold her baby in until Derek was by her side.

Lexie looked at Mark both with a happy feeling about Meredith would have someone to take care of her. But the other feeling she had right now and that feeling dominating the happy feeling. And that was anger.

"You stupid ass! Why didn't you tell me that the woman that may as well be your mother was coming?" Lexie yelled as she hit Mark hard on the chest.

"I'm sorry. But that was not really on my mind. But I will introduce you to my mom as my girlfriend after all I did meet your father there for it is only fair that you get to met my mother" Mark smiled.

After that Lexie couldn't be mad at him any more. He was just too cute.

"Wow, you really do know how to sweet talk women!" Lexie smiled and leaned up and gave Mark a sweet kiss.

"Markus Sloan, tell me where she is right now!" a voice was heard down the hall.

Mark turned around and walking towards him was his mother Carolyn Shepherd.

"Hello to you too mom" Mark gave her a smile.

"Mark now is not the time to play a dump ass. Now tell me where she is!"

"I already like this woman" Cristina whispered to Lexie.

There you have it chapter 10. Wow I can't believe that it has already been teen chapters!

Anyway some of you guessed right. The woman Mark was talking about was Carolyn Shepherd.

I would also like to thank all of you for your awesome reviews. I loved every single one of them!!!!
