Chapter 44: Alone Time
Work was absolutely insane. It was crazy and there were patients in and out, people running around left and right. Now, Derek found himself with more patients than he could imagine. Which meant more paperwork. He was schedule for three surgeries for the rest of the day but at least he had time to have lunch with Meredith. Except now he was stressed out as he filled out papers at the desk in his office.
It was a complete relief when he heard a knock at the door that he could only assume was Meredith bringing him lunch. "Come in!"
"Hey..." Meredith stepped in, large carryout bag in her hand as she closed and locked the door to Derek's office behind her.
"Hi." Derek smiled, closing the file in front of him and putting his pen down.
"I picked up lunch." Meredith replied, sitting down the bag on a side table, the aroma of the food immediately filling his office.
"I think you might be a saint." Derek sighed, leaning back in his chair running his hands through his hair.
"Saint might not be the word." Meredith replied, turning around, and untying her long trench coat.
"Why not?"
"I did a stupid and corny thing." She whispered, opening the coat to reveal a black lacy bra and matching panties set, with garters attached to black stockings.
"You...Oh...Wow..." He breathed, looking her up and down as a smile spread across his face.
"Not my best idea..." Meredith giggled, tossing the coat to the side and walking up to his desk.
"I thought you were at work." Derek whispered, putting his hands on her waist.
"I changed in the bathroom before I left...keeping this hidden wasn't very easy."
"It's...Wow..."
"Enjoy?" She whispered, reaching for the stack of papers on the desk and sliding them into the top drawer.
"I'm...really enjoying it." He breathed, not taking his eyes off her.
"Good." She whispered, sitting back on his desk, placing her left foot with black pumps on his thigh.
"I just...Wow..." He repeated, running his hand up and down her calf.
"So...how is work?" She whispered, using her feet to kick around his hair, placing her hands on his scrub clad back to massage him.
"Hectic...busy..."
"That's too bad." She whispered, leaning over to press soft kisses against his ear.
"Better now that you're here though..." He whispered.
"You needed lunch...and we still haven't had our time...alone time."
"Come here..." Derek smiled, taking her hand.
"What?" She giggled.
"On my lap..."
"Oh..." Meredith moved to straddle him.
"Thank you for coming." Derek whispered, running his fingers along her thighs.
"I was worried about you...being back at work and...I know you've been back since but I missed you."
"I missed you too."
"And I was told I was in trouble..."
"You're in big trouble."
"Dr. Shepherd..."
"Hmm..."
"Fuck me."
"With that on...I don't think you have any choice."
"Okay..." She whispered in his ear.
"Desk..."
"Okay." She whispered, as he stood up with her in his arms.
"Door locked?" He whispered.
"Yeah."
"Good..." Derek said, pulling his scrub top over his head.
"Yeah." She whispered, reaching forward to mess with the tie on his pants.
"I missed you so much." He breathed, kissing her neck as he untied and kicked off his pants.
"Yeah?" She whispered, sliding a hand down into her panties.
"Mer..." He groaned.
"Yeah?" She bit her lip, moving her hands in circles.
"Just...I need you..."
"You need me?" She moaned, at the touch of her finger on her folds.
"I need you so bad." He moaned, pushing down his boxers to release his throbbing erection.
"Hmm..."
"Right now."
"Okay." She nodded, her eyes closed as she kept a hand on herself.
"I love you so much..." He whispered, positioning himself over her on top of the desk.
"Love you..." She moaned, sliding her panties to the side.
"Shit..." He muttered, quickly slipping into her.
"Ooh..."
"Fuck..."
"Hard..."
"I love you...I love you..." He groaned, starting to thrust in and out of her.
"I...hey...stop." Meredith clenched around him, holding him in place, as small gasps escaped her. "You...you know how you always say I'm little and cute and...you know how you say stuff like that?"
"Yeah?"
"Forget all of that stuff..." Meredith moaned, kissing him deeply. "Fuck me like you don't care about how small I am or how fragile I might be...you're stressed at work..."
"Mer..."
"Harder." She demanded, before slamming her lips into his.
"Fuck..." He moaned against her lips, pushing himself further into her.
"Derek..."
"Oh god..."
"Oh...Derek..." She gasped against his lips, her fingers digging into his back.
"I...Oh fuck..." Derek moaned, slamming into her.
"Ohh..."
"Mer..."
"Derek!" Meredith moaned.
"I...shit...Meredith..." Derek moaned, his legs shaking.
"Oh...oh..." Meredith bounced her body below him.
"Fuck..."
"Derek..." Meredith screamed, her body shaking as he slammed himself into her, each time with more force that sent her towards the edge. "Oh My..."
"Oh god..." Derek moaned, emptying into her as he thrusted into her one last time.
"Fuck!" Meredith screamed as he slammed his lips onto hers. Her body shook as she came, clutching him close.
"Oh..."
"It's...Are you...Did I hurt you..."
"I loved every minute of that."
"Okay...I...Okay..." He breathed, pulling out of her, and resting his head on her chest, still completely out of breath.
"Oh..." Meredith panted.
"I...no more stress..." Derek breathed.
"No...that's good."
"Thank you..."
"You're welcome...I think." She giggled nervously, her body still glistening
"I...Now I'm starving." He chuckled.
"Well I guess it's good we have food."
"Very good."
"Go get it." She pointed.
"Why me?"
"I just got done walking in heels for you...and you're ass is hot...and the part where you love me."
"Okay." He laughed, kissing her before getting off of the desk and grabbing the good.
"I wasn't sure what you wanted so I just got a couple of things..."
"What did you get?"
"Garlic Chicken Pasta, BLT, Spaghetti, Meatloaf...Chocolate Cake, the tuna melt..."
"BLT."
"Here." She handed it to him.
"Thank you." Derek smiled, leaning over, and kissing her.
"Hmm..." Meredith reached for a plastic fork and the spaghetti before moving to sit on his lap.
"It had been a long time since..."
"Yeah..." Meredith smiled, twirling the fork in the pasta.
"That was so worth it though."
"I agree." She giggled, taking a bite of the pasta.
"We should do it in bed though." He laughed, taking a bite of his sandwich.
"That would involve one of us having a place...or well me having a place."
"I have a place..."
"I have a daughter."
"A daughter who has lots of people to watch her and loves going to other people's houses for sleepovers."
"Hmm...only sometimes."
"Tell Izzie we need to have sex." Derek laughed.
"Oh okay." She replied, taking another bite before resting her head on his shoulder.
"We still have to have our date." He whispered.
"We do..." Meredith whispered.
"I have Friday off..."
"I have the lunchtime shift."
"But you're off at night?"
"I think so." She whispered.
"Its a date." Derek smiled.
"I wish you didn't have to stay here all day." Meredith whispered.
"I know..."
"Were you scared?"
"What?"
"When the gunman came in." Meredith swallowed, closing her eyes. "Were you scared?"
"I...yeah I was." Derek whispered.
"And you...you saw him?"
"Yeah..."
"Derek..."
"I'm okay."
"You're okay...you're okay...you're okay..."
"Are you?"
"Uh huh..."
"Meredith."
"What?" She said quietly.
"I'm fine...Everything is going to be fine." He whispered.
"I know..."
"Don't worry, okay?"
"I'm not."
"Good...Because there's nothing to worry about."
"Not anymore." Meredith sighed. "The other night...that was something to worry about."
"I'm fine..."
"I know." Meredith replied, sounding slightly irritated. "I know you're fine."
"That night...all I could think about was you." Derek whispered.
"You could have died." Meredith whispered. "You could have...I keep saying that and you didn't, but you could have and..."
"You're scared."
"It's just that everything changed that night."
"It did..."
"And I wasn't...I didn't know I was going to keep saying things and I did and I meant what I said but the things I said are big."
"Is it too much?" He whispered.
"No...I don't know." Meredith sighed. "I want those things but...I don't know when and how we're going to make those things work and I just...I'm worried."
"We'll make them work." Derek insisted.
"But some of the things...they're big things."
"Like the house?"
"The house and money...babies..."
"Oh..."
"I just...I don't know."
"Okay." Derek whispered, pulling away.
"What's wrong?"
"I have surgery."
"But..." Meredith frowned, looking around the office before back to him. He looked distant, a weird kind of distant. "Okay...surgery. Of course."
"I um...we'll talk about this tonight?"
"Sure." She groaned, standing up and placing the spaghetti on the desk.
"Are you mad at me now?" He asked, pulling his scrub top back on.
"No...I just...you didn't seem to...whatever." Meredith reached for her trench coat. "We can talk tonight."
"Come here." Derek whispered, holding out his hand.
"No...we'll talk tonight like you said." Meredith didn't look at him, reaching into her purse to pull out a pair of black pants.
"Meredith...come here." Derek said again, pulling her gently to him.
"You said we would talk tonight." Meredith groaned.
"I know. I just don't want you to leave here upset."
"I'm not upset." She rolled her eyes.
"Okay."
"Just...okay."
"What?"
"Nothing...I just...you have surgery and I have to go to work and apparently we have to talk now." Meredith pulled away, sliding her pants on.
"I'll call you when I'm out of surgery." Derek sighed.
"Okay." Meredith pulled a matching top out of her bag, pulling it over her body.
"Promise you're not mad at me?"
"I promise I'm not mad..."
"Okay...I have to go."
"Now...me too." Meredith reached for her stuff.
"I love you.
"Love you." Meredith sighed, walking towards the door.
"Hey..."
"What?"
"Don't worry."
"I'm not...not about you...you're okay."
"I'll talk to you later."
"Yeah..." Meredith smiled weakly, leaving him in his office.
"Bye..." Derek whispered as she closed the door. They were having a great time. Being together and eating and then things had gotten weird. All of the issues they had before had just come up again just when Derek thought it was pretty much behind them.
