Meredith looks at the alarm clock on the nightstand beside her big bed it read 6:00 She then rolled over and closed her eyes. .She took at deep breath before she then shook Derek to wake up.
" Babe wake up we need to get going we have early surgeries."
"Ummm... go back to sleep Mer we don't have to be in until later"
"Derek I'm going to go take a shower when I'm out you better be up and ready to head to the hospital"
Derek did not respond he just rolled back over and kept on sleeping. Meredith shook her head at his attitude this morning usually it was he that had to drag her from bed.
"That's no fair."
"Yes. It is."
Meredith gets up and walks out of her room and across the hall to the bathroom. Derek could not believe how lucky he was to have Meredith in his life after everything they had been thought. Derek would not believe it himself if had not lived through it.
Derek lies there a few minutes and then he slowly gets out of bed. He had no clue what he had done to deserve someone so terrific and as wonderful as he had done to deserve someone so terrific and as wonderful as he had done to deserve someone so terrific and as wonderful as Meredith. Meredith was the only woman he truly cared about and that would never change. He was going to love her tell he dies He was going to prove it. Prove it by taking the next possible step... Marriage... He head blurry eyed into the bathroom to get ready for the day and another day with the love of his life. Another day of surgeries...Another day in the hospital that he had learned to love...
He never for one moment regretted moving to Seattle because if Addison and Mark had not slept together it would never made his move to Seattle and Meredith and for that even through they had hurt him in the past he would be forever grateful.
He did not want to say it. However, it had to be said .He owed Mark and Addie a lot for this. For him actually moving here .Even though it took him a lot to admit it he had to... Mark and Addison were only helping him to... Helping him by making him realize that he had to move on and love someone else .Someone that happened to be the most beautiful woman in the whole world. The woman that loved him and would fight for him...
He even had become friends with them after Mark had moved to Los Angels to follow Addison because in the end of everything everyone was finally happy. Derek loves when Addison and Mark come to visit. It is as if the gang is all back together. He just loves to hear all there stories and how life is treating them...
All the sudden the sound of Meredith being ill in the bathroom brings him out of his musings about everything and he heads into to make sure she is ok.
"Meredith, are you ok?"
All he could here from the bathroom door was the sound of her throwing up. He went to the door and started knocking and when he got no responds he tried the door luckily it was unlocked.
"Meredith is everything ok?"
Meredith wipes her mouth.
"I think that I have the stomach flu that is going around ..."
Derek was shocked by how pale she looked as he entered the bathroom he grabbed a washcloth to cool her down. Then he bent to her level and wipes her face she moans softly…
"Thanks"
"It's what I'm here for now lets get you in bed then I will call Richard and request a personal day for both of us"
"Derek you can't do that people need you I'll be fine"
"No I told him that there was a possibility that I was going to call today for a personal day."
"Derek you have patients that you need to..."
Meredith leans over the toilet bowl and throws up again.
"Babe you need me more so I'm not going anywhere"
Once Meredith is done, again Derek helps her clean up and lifts her in his arms to carry her back to bed. Meredith snuggles into his arms and lets her knight and shining whatever take care of her.
