Merder the best of love

Chapter 32

I breathed deeply. He leaned us down so that my back was on the bed and he was on top of me.

"Meredith we lose people okay" he said

"You think that's supposed to calm me?" I asked

"No I'm saying that you shouldn't get attached" he said

"I didn't, all we did was have conversations" I said

"Okay whatever you say" he whispered

He kissed my cheek and sat in front of me. He was on his knees and I sat up.

"How's our little girl. Is she okay" he asked putting his hands on my stomach

"I don't know" I said crying

"Meredith I keep asking because you shouldn't put stress on yourself. It's not good for you or the baby" he said

He lifted my shirt up over my stomach and it rested on it. He started kissing my stomach.

"Mer I want you both to be okay" he whispered

"Derek I know, but I have feelings it's not like I can hide them as good as I can when I'm not pregnant" I said

"Let's go home" he said putting my shirt back down

He got up and put his hand out. I took it. He helped me up and we walked out of the room. We went out of the hospital and went in our separate cars. I left the hospital first. I stopped at Taco Bell because I was really craving it. I ordered some tacos and baja blasts for Derek and I. I grabbed the food and parked in the parking lot. I needed a taco. I started eating it and moaned at the flavor. I grabbed my phone and answered it on Bluetooth.

"Hello" I asked

"Mer are you okay. It's really raining out here" he said as the rain hit my front window

"Yeah I stopped at Taco Bell" I said and heard gunshots.

I ducked in the car.

"Mer" he whispered through the phone

I heard yelling and another couple gunshots. I turned my phone volume down. I finished my taco and the people started getting closer to my car.

"Derek I'm scared" I whispered

"Stay on the phone. I'll be there soon" he said

"No I'll be fine" I said as I heard more gunshots by my car

I heard yelling and it stopped

"Let's go" someone yelled

I lifted my head up.

"I knew it" someone yelled

The window broke and I felt myself get shot

Derek's POV

I was staying on the phone with Mer. A lot of people were at the Taco Bell near the hospital with guns.

"Derek I'm scared" she whispered

"Stay on the phone. I'll be there soon" I whispered

"No I'll be fine" she said and I heard more gunshots

I heard yelling and a bunch of arguments. I heard another close gunshot and glass break. Meredith was crying. That's it. I quickly drove out of Mer's driveway and drove 100 on a 45. I called 911 and told them to come. I hung up with Mer because I knew I'd be there in about 3 minutes. I rushed there and quickly parked. I ran over to her car and blood was everywhere. Everything was soaked with rain. I picked her up and laid her on the ground. I was trying to find the bleeding. I couldn't see it. I noticed something on her shirt. I lifted her shirt up. She was shot on the side of her stomach. She was coming in and out of consciousness.
