Hi you all! Another chapter from Allison. And now here we are, in today's chapter, Meredith's fate will be unveiled, Nancy and Derek are gonna get in a bit of a trouble, and Carolyn will grow protective of Meredith and her grandchildren. So, now on with the chapter.
Nancy was coming home from the hotel room, although her hangover was mostly over, her head was mostly exploding with pain. As she was just coming home, Meredith's home, she saw Derek pull up in the driveway. Her brother looked angry, which was rare, he was mostly calm and with a baby, correction babies, on the way, he was supposed to be happy, but he wasn't. As she saw him, she stopped, she didn't know why, maybe it was just an instinct, but she stopped. And everything was calm for a moment, like the calm before a storm.
As he got out from the car and made his way towards her, she knew this was gonna be a problem. "Derek, what happened?" she asked him, slightly amused. "You happened" said Derek, throwing his hands in the air in utter frustration "Why can't you just leave her alone ? Why do you have to put your unpopular opinion everywhere? Just because you think so, doesn't mean that's right."
"Derek, you're my brother. I have to look after you." said Nancy in a voice that was almost comforting "If I think you're going wrong with life, then it's my job to tell you the truth, even if it's ugly." She said in a sisterly manner. "Nancy, I'm going to be a father. I'm going to have a family, Nancy. Why can't you just be happy for me, for once?". said Derek in a manner that wasn't angry anymore, just plain annoyed. "I can't see you throw yourself off a ledge with Meredith. She's gonna hurt you, Derek." said Nancy, aggressively supporting her view.
"Yeah, and your dearest Addison, was perfect for me." said Derek, sarcastically "Just leave her alone, Nancy. It's not good for her, not good for the babies. Not everyone is like Jason." he said. Nancy's eyes began to water at the mention of Jason. Why'd you have to mention him? thought Nancy. Her ears hurting at the mention of him. But it was too late, Derek was already gone back in his car. As she heard the noise of the engine turning on, and the sound of wheel against the road. Derek drove away. And she went inside home and started to think about Jason. Her mother was not in sight. But she could hear Carolyn's voice, presumably reading a book to Valerie. So, she didn't disturb them, just went inside the room where she had been there, locked the door from inside and started crying her eyes out. She remembered Jason, how could she ever forget him ?
"I wouldn't worry if I were you. You're a Grey. You're strong. Your babies will be alright." said Lexie in her comforting, soothing voice. She was doing charts and Meredith needed them. She was hair standing there, thinking about what had happened. Had she wrecked a family ? His sisters already hate her, her being the reason Derek didn't visit anymore and now, she would be the reason why Derek has to fight with his own sisters. "Don't zone out like that, Mer." said Lexie, almost startling her "It's gonna be alright.".
"I don't know about that." said Meredith, looking at her pager again and again, nervously waiting for the results. "You're gonna get through it, Mer." she said "You're a fighter. You're a Grey. Have thought of a Godmother yet?". The last part of the question was almost inaudible to Meredith. "Do you wanna be it?" asked Meredith, making Lexie blush. "I know it's too soon. And at a time like this, I know it seems insensitive. But I'm your sister. You know what…..forget it, it doesn't matter!" Lexie blushed with embarrassment.
"Oh no! It's okay, of course, Lexie. I'll have to talk to Derek though." said Meredith. She has to respect his wishes. He was gonna be a father after all. "Really…..I mean, it would be such an honour. And I would….." Lexie stopped seeing that this wasn't the time or the place for such conversation. Meredith still had a tinge of worry on her face, she was still looking at her pager. Still eager. And in a moment, that seemed like a hallucination, the pager beeped, it was Dr. Wesley, her new OB. "Is that it, the OB ?" asked Lexie, looking more nervous than Meredith was. Meredith gave a small and nervous nod. "Doesn't Derek need to be there too ?" asked Lexie. Derek thought Meredith Where the hell was he anyway ?
Derek was driving back to the hospital, he was not on-call but he wanted to know the results. He wanted to know if his children were okay, if Meredith was okay. Gestational Hypertension was treatable but when it couldn't treated, it lead to placental abruption. It was better to be safe than sorry anyway. He was too engrossed in his thoughts. Too engrossed thinking about the well-being of the woman he loved, to see the car coming at a running speed from a distance.
The car was racing at a high speed, with loud music inside and when Derek noticed the car, he narrowly escaped the crash, the cars almost touching each other as they passed. The car driver had no clue of what had happened. Only Derek did. Drunk driver thought Derek. He stopped the car, it coming to a screeching halt. The shock of the incident just overcame Derek. His hands were shaking, his breathing became fast and for a moment there, when he had seen the car coming at him. All he could think was "I'm going to die. I'll never see my kids.". He realised for the first time in three months that he really wanted these children.
He stopped to calm down for a second. But after a few minutes, he restarted the car. Driving to the hospital, his hands still shaking but good enough to drive.
As Meredith walked down the hall, she could feel panic. As if something was wrong, she knew that something was wrong. She had never been to Dr. Wesley before, so finding her clinic was a little hard for her. But she found it and as she opens the door, she was greeted by a woman in her mid-40s. Black hair, tall, and looking tired but cheerful. With a smile, she called her inside. She had a paper in her hand, which Meredith assumed were the test results. She saw Dr. Welsey's expression change as she opened the test results. Meredith didn't need to her to tell her, she already knew what it was. "It's not good news, is it?" asked Meredith, her eyes tearing up.
"I'm afraid, it isn't my dear." said Dr. Wesley with concern in her voice and then changing back to her cheerful demeanour, started telling Meredith that she could overcome it. It was easy to beat and the things she should do. But Meredith wasn't paying attention. All she could think was Where the hell is Derek ?
So, short chapter. But crucial one. Now you know, Nancy had a husband- Jason who left her, Derek has a newfound love for God children and the children aren't exactly very safe. Sad, I know. I scared you in this chapter. But please comment.
