"Hey."

"Your sister's going to kill me," She mumbled as they were standing outside of his house. "This is a very bad idea."

"I told you," He laughed. "She's not going to say anything."

"Sure," She shook her head. "She's not going to say anything to me."

"Come on," He laughed as they both headed inside. He led her to the kitchen where his mother was. "Mom, this is Meredith."

"Hi, Meredith. It's nice to finally meet you." Angela smiled.

"You too," Meredith smiled back, politely.

"We'll be downstairs in ten," Derek said before pulling Meredith up the stairs. "That was painless, wasn't it?"

"I'm gonna hit you," She mumbled and sat down on his bed. "So, run down on names and ages again?"

"Casey's eight; Sarah's fifteen; Nancy's seventeen; and Megan's twenty-one. Good?" He laughed.

"Oh, shit." She ran hand through her hair. "Isn't Sarah good friend's with Lexie?"

"…Oh," He nodded. "I'll tell her not to say anything."

"Alright," Meredith stood up. "You owe me big time for this, buddy." She shook her head as they both headed downstairs.

"Derek, go get your sisters upstairs and no screaming," Angela warned him and he shook his head and headed back up the stairs. "Meredith, what would you like to drink?"

Vodka, Would Help. "Water's fine, thanks," She smiled.

"So, you're still in high school, right?"

"Yeah," Meredith nodded. "I'm a junior at the moment." Soon enough, the rest of Derek's oddly big family were downstairs.

As everyone sat down, Meredith ironically ended up right across from Nancy; at least Derek was sitting next to her. "See, it's not that bad," Derek said quietly.

"That's what you think, bud." She mumbled.

"So," Megan said. "Derek was telling me that you're into the whole… dirt bike and racing thing, too, right?"

"Yeah," She nodded. "I would race myself, but my dad's not exactly a fan of the sport. He'd rather have me go out for cheerleading like my sister does."

"Oh," Megan nodded. "Well, even if you can't race, you can still ride."

"Usually, yeah," Meredith smiled.

The rest of dinner consisted of normal small talk and it seemed that she got along with every member of the family except for Nancy. That fact was not going to change though.

"Now, that was painless, wasn't it?" Derek laughed as they were upstairs and laying down on his bed.

"Shut up," She shook her head. "I'm pretty sure Nancy was staring me down the entire dinner, though."

"She'll get over it." He shrugged, then they both just kind of laid there. He went to go talk again, but then back down and let out a sigh.

"What?" She laughed.

"Nothing," He said. "I just had a question, but it's not important."

"That's a lie," She smiled and looked over at him. "Just tell me. Or I guess just ask me, but yeah, What's up?"

Derek let out a sigh. "Did you have sex with Hasley?"

Meredith looked at the ceiling. "So, that's what yesterday was about," She shook her head and stood up. "What? Did you think because I supposedly had sex with him that I was easy? Seriously, Derek? I thought you didn't believe your sister."

"It was just a question."

"No, it's not just a question. Try accusation. You should know me by now Derek. You know what happened between me and Hasley my freshman year. I made out with him when I was drunk. That was it. I'm so glad you believed me."

"Wait-"

"No!" She shook her head. "Don't even try it." Meredith pulled on a sweatshirt and ran down the stairs. "Thank you so much for having me, Mrs. Shepherd." She smiled and then was out the door. She literally ran home and through her front door.

"Where were you?" Thatcher looked up when she walked through the door. "Are you crying?"

"I was at Derek's house." She mumbled. "I thought I actually liked the kid, but no. Don't worry, I'm staying away." She bit her lip and he nodded. Meredith walked upstairs to her room and collapsed on her bed. She was starting to feel something more than just friendship towards him, but now…, now things had definitely changed.

A/N: Don't hate me….
