Chapter title (Escapar) is a song by Kudai.


"If you would just do things correctly, I wouldn't have to be so hard on you", Finn stated. He was standing near the front door, facing Meredith with a suitcase next to him.

"I know.", Meredith sheepishly replied, looking at the patterns of the hardwood floor of their appartment. She had just woken up, hence the ratty t-shirt and the pyjama bottoms.

"Good. Don't do anything stupid", he warned her like a parent would to his child. "I will only be gone three days so there's not much damage you can do anyway!". Her eyes reflected the stinging in her heart as she heard, once again, one of his condescending comments.

He stepped forward to kiss her but she quickly backed away. It was a reflex. Usually when Finn came closer the way he had done, it was either to hit her or kiss her. She was never sure which one it was; Finn being so unpredictable. The words he had said to her yesterday still resonated in her mind and she was wary of any physical contact with him.

"Come over here", he barked. Meredith came closer to her boyfriend. He took his right hand and passed it through her hair, leaned down and kissed her lips with force. All she could do was let out a small whimp. He broke the contact of their mouth, opened the door and stepped outside, where Alex was already waiting for him in his car.

Meredith closed the door and leaned her back against it with her eyes closed. She sighed of relief. She was indeed relieved that she would be by herself for three days. Meredith knew it wasn't normal for a girlfriend to be so relieved that her boyfriend was gone but it's a feeling she couldn't help. Living with Finn was like being in a rollecoaster and she was grateful to hop down, even if it was of limited duration.

Come on, gotta get ready for work.

She walked towards the bedroom to prep for the day with a smile on her face.

Derek was sitting at the kitchen's table, drinking his coffee and going through the newpaper's ads in an uninterested manner. He was impatiently waiting for Rose to finish getting ready for the day and had read the whole thing twice. All that was left were the ads. As he was reading the selling section, he suddenly felt anger making its way inside of him. Derek put down the paper and called for Rose.

"What? What's wrong?!", she answered when she got to the kitchen of their appartment, trying to figure out why he was so mad.

"Selling trailer. In good condition. $1000 negotiable. Contact Rose at 555-265-8986." he read outloud.

" You're selling my trailer! You're selling MY trailer behind my back!", he furiously stated. He was looking at his fiancée with disbelief and anger while she stood in front of him, caught red-handed.

"I just-I was gonna tell you. Your trailer is the middle of a land. A gorgeous land. Once our house is built, we won't need the damn thing! Better to get rid of it now.", she stammered.

He could not believe his ears. He could not understand how she could possibly come up with excuses for this.

"WHAT? This trailer belongs to me! You don't get to decide what happens to it!"

"But-"

"I don't want to hear it. You are going to call the newspaper and fix this mess!", he angrily said.

Derek got up and walked towards the front door with determination. Rose quickly followed him.

"Where are you going? I'm not ready to to the hospital yet!"

"You can take a cab.", he said coldly before taking his briefcase and walking out the door.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

They had been driving for fifteen minutes when Alex spoke.

"Is everything alright with Mer?". His hands were on the steering weel and his eyes on the street.

"Yeah, everything's great. It's..ummm...it's awesome!", Finn replied, with a tad too much enthusiasm, which got a quick suspicious glance from Alex.

"Why are you asking?"

"It's just that when I picked her up last night, she was crying and said you had a fight."

"Oh, that! She was probably overracting.", he said.

"You know Mer, she doesn't cry often. She's not a crier", Alex insisted, still watching the road.

"Yeah, but you know how girls are, right?", Finn joked, which made Alex chuckle.

"Right. Did she ever tell you about her last boyfriend?", Alex asked.

"Umm..His name was Kevin. That's all I know.", he replied with a quizzical expression.

"Yeah, Kevin. They had been dating for a couple of weeks and everything was fine. He seemed like a nice guy, polite and everything. One day, I overheard him and Mer arguing. He called her a whore, a bitch and said she was worthless. The next day I was with Mer and Izzie at a bar and we saw him kissing another chick! Can you believe that?", he said with anger in his voice.

"No, I guess not", Finn nervously replied.

"I was really mad, you know? So when I saw him leaving, I ran after him. When I got in front of him, I punched him. Again and again until he was bleeding and begging me to stop. I told him if he ever tried to get in contact with Meredith, I would kill him. We never saw him again. I take my sister's well-being very seriously, Finn."

"Why are you telling me this?". Finn was folding and unfolding his fingers resting on his lap and sweat was making an appearance on his forehead. The car stopped as the streetlight went red. Alex took this opportunity to let go of the road and look directly into Finn's scared eyes.

"Because we're friends and I would really hate if something like that happened to you, you know what I mean?", he insinuated.

"Yeah, I do", he nodded hesitantly.

"Good." The light turned green and Alex concentrated back on the road and put his foot on the accelerator. The car ride to the airport continued in silence and tension.

----------------------------------------------------------------

"In the waiting room? With people watching? Sick people?!"

"Yes, we were in the waiting room but people weren't paying attention.", Derek stated for the third time.

"I would've definately been watching!", said Mark with a sleazy smile.

The two men were having a guy talk in the plastic surgeon's office. The were sitting in front of each other, with the desk between them.

"Hey! I came to you for advice. Not to know your perverted opinion about my sex dreams.", Derek said exasperated with his best friend.

"Okay, okay. No need to get all bitchy!, Mark replied, throwing his hands up in a surrending manner.

"Why haven't I met this girl again?"

"Because I barely know her myself", he answered."I met her a couple of days ago and now, I can't get her out of my head."

"And she works here?"

"Yeah, she's an oncology resident"

"What are you going to do?", Mark asked.

"I don't know. I just-....I don't know, he said, passing his hand through his hair. "Talking to her is so easy, you know? She's beautiful, caring and simple.". His eyes glittered at the thought of Meredith and the smell of her hair. "And Rose, she's just so complicated and unnerving. She tried to sell my trailer. Behind my back." Mark opened his mouth in shock.

"Are you kidding me?!", he exclaimed. "She has some nerve! Your dad gave you this trailer."

"Yeah. She says that once our house is built, we won't need it anymore", he sighed.

"Derek, can't you see? She's using you. She only wants your money! When you're talking about this Meredith, you look happy. Happier than I've seen you in a long time."

The sound of Derek's beeper ended their conversation.

"Gotta go save lives.", Derek said, looking at the little black box attached to his waist. He got up to walk out of the office but Mark's voice stopped him.

"Addie and I are going to Joe's tonight. Wanna come?"

"Yeah, sure.", Derek replied before leaving.

He thought he would get some answers talking to Mark, but instead walked out more confused than when he came in. He did feel happy just thinking about Meredith .But the fact that he was engaged and that she had a boyfriend made things a tad difficult.

What am I going to do?

--------------------------------------------------------------

"There you are! I've been looking all over for you", Izzie exclaimed as she approached her friend who was leaning against the nurse's station.

"What's up?", asked Meredith, looking up from her chart.

"We're all going over to Joe's tonight. You coming?"

"Yeah, okay.", Meredith replied with a smile.

"Perfect!", Izzie cheered in her usual bubbly voice before walking away.

It had been a while since Meredith had gone out with her friends. Finn usually wanted her to come home right after her shift so it was a good opportunity to let loose and have fun.

A night out with friends, that's exactly what I need!, she thought, excited.


Next chapter will be part 2, at Joe's.
