Chapter 60: Back to Reality

Meredith and Derek spent as much time together hulled up, just living a somewhat normal or day-to-day life. There was only one problem, that life could only be contained within the walls of one of their apartments, primarily Meredith's. They could be open in front of Alex; however, he had found a place to go Saturday night, knowing full and well that things would get a little loud. He loved his best friend, but she was loud when she was having sex and had gotten seemingly louder with Derek.

The alarm sounded which caused Derek to nuzzle in Meredith's neck, kissing it lightly. "We need to get up."

Meredith groaned, "No, we stay here forever."

"Naked and together, I like it." He smiled while breathing her in.

Feeling his morning wood against her ass, "I think you would stay inside of me forever." She giggled, still keeping her eyes closed.

Derek opened his eyes and leaned up enough to whisper in her ear, "You want me inside of you right now."

"Hmmm… maybe." She stayed in the same position, but moved her leg, giving him better access to the spot he found to be the sweetest place on earth.

"We could be late for work if we follow on this path." He warned while moving his hands over her nude hip and ass. He loved that they slept skin on skin. Whenever they were feeling the need, the access was always easy this way.

"Are you scared of a little ass chewing?" Meredith smiled in her thoughts.

"Only if you were the one doing it." Derek purred in her ear.

"I could you know, if you wanted. This morning though, it would be your Chief." Meredith knew he would be written up for it after they had the weekend off. But, she knew Derek walked the straight and narrow and never got in any kind of trouble.

"So worth any punishment." His hand had made its way down to her inner thigh, both of them taking deeper breaths in anticipation. Derek knew this was more of a quickie, but he had to make sure she got what she deserved as well.

"Yeah." Meredith breathed out the second she felt his hand near her waiting pussy, ready to take him fully. She didn't think she could ever get enough of him.

Derek entered her from behind and knew he couldn't get a good angle on her clit. "Stimulate yourself. I want you to cum for me this morning." He had learned it didn't take too long for her to orgasm with stimulation.

"Oh yes." This was a quickie, but even in the quickie, he was still thinking about her which is one more reason for her to love him.

After mere minutes of this, they both reached their peaks with sweat glistening both bodies. "Damn it." Derek said after a minute of lying in the post coital moment.

"What?" Meredith flipped over to look at him for the first time this morning.

"My car." He grumbled getting out of bed immediately.

"Shit." Meredith said, and added, "We really didn't have time for our morning fun."

Derek stopped and smirked, "There is always time for that." He walked over to her and kissed her lips quickly.

"Morning breath is attractive you know." Meredith smiled, getting out of bed herself.

"Yeah, I have always thought so." Derek laughed but was trying to think of a plan while going to her bathroom to shower.

"What about Mark, can he come and get you?" Meredith asked trying to think clearly this early in the morning, after one orgasm.

"Let me call. We might make it on time." Derek said going back to her bedroom to get his phone off of the side table.

"You know, I could say I just picked up a stray on the side of the road and take you to work, I found you standing there all alone." Meredith couldn't help but find the humor in situations like this.

While Derek dialed Mark's cell, he smiled to Meredith and her comment, "That shouldn't be a problem, you love my doggie style anyway. Mark?"

"Let me guess, you need me to come and get you?" Mark said in a sleepy voice.

"Um?" Derek simply said in an unsure voice.

"I figured when I walked out a few minutes ago and saw you guys didn't come to get your car last night, you would need a ride." Mark explained, knowing it was smart they had thought to bring Derek's car back to his place so that people didn't recognize it at Alex and Meredith's.

"Yeah, I guess we got caught up." Derek raised his eyebrows suggestively to Meredith.

"Don't care to hear about you and Grey in all your glory. I have heard enough as it is. Besides, you would have never competed with Yang and me. She is one crazy ass woman in bed. Not that I am complaining. Best sex of my life." Mark bragged.

"You are unbelievable; I don't care to hear about you and Yang either although Mer and I would have you beat. Just come and get me." Derek started the shower.

"I am almost there actually." Mark knew Derek would need a ride and decided to just go on over that way.

"Well, I am jumping in the shower." Derek smiled to Meredith and added, "Have to get the sex smell off as best possible."

"Five minutes." Mark groaned and hung up the phone.

Derek hung up the phone and Meredith spoke, "I am going to get some breakfast so you can shower. I don't have to be in for another hour. I have a flight scheduled at 1. You would think since we just got back, they would give us a break." She knew the next few weeks would be busy with deployment coming up.

"Yeah, deployment..." Derek trailed off, but kept his loving eyes locked on Meredith's.

"Shower." She mumbled out.

"I… I love you." He couldn't help saying, thinking about how hard the next 9 months would be. They had another few weeks on the boat in a month, then back for a month before the big 6-month deployment.

Meredith took a few steps towards him, "I love you too."

Derek leaned down to lightly kiss her lips, "I have to shower."

"You do."

"I just want to stay here, wrapped up in your arms." Derek wanted her forever and still had no idea how things would play out.

"Tonight. I think we can get together tonight." Meredith said hopeful.

Derek couldn't help but get a strange feeling when she said this; he had no idea what this meant but didn't want to let her go. "Tonight." He kissed her one last time and went to get in the shower, ready to start his day. A day he would never forget...

Why do you think Derek is feeling strange?
