Meredith Pov
"Guys come on get in the car or you'll be late for school!" I yelled from downstairs.

I grab my keys and I hear the kids arguing while coming downstairs.

"Mer! Cristina took my backpack and won't give it back!" Alex yelled.

"Cristina give it back to Alex" I said

"Fine!" Cristina threw the backpack back at Alex.

Those two are always picking on eachother.

The youngest, George and Izzie, came down behind Alex and Cristina and they held my hand.

We walked to the car and everyone got buckled in to their seats. Me in the driver's seat, Alex and Cristina in the back row, and George and Izzie in the middle row.

Since I started my senior year I have a two free periods in the morning. I drive my siblings to school and then I go to school and talk to my friend before class starts.

"Okay Alex and Cristina we are here. Have a good day I'll pick you up in the afternoon." I said

"Bye mer love you" they said in unison

"Love you too"

I waited till they were inside the school then drove off to the elementary school.

I parked in the parking lot and helped George get unbuckled because he has always been a little behind then Izzie when it came to learning things.

I held onto George's hand and walked over to the other side of the car and George held izzies hand. With my other free hand I grabbed their bags.

I took them to their class and said goodbye.

I drove to my school and met my friend Derek in the Cafeteria. Derek has been my bestfriend since 1st grade when I moved back from Boston.

Derek knows everything about me. He's seen my ups and down. I'm surprised he is still my friend with all the chaos he has seen.

He has helped me many times when it came to my siblings.

"The kids in school?" He asked

"Yep I'm tired" I said resting my head in my hands.

"I bet, when was the last time your parents were home"

"Umm last Tuesday" when I said that a disappointed look washed over his face.

"How about I come over tonight and help you" as soon as he said that I looked up at him.

"Oh please can you? The kids love you"

"Of course you look like you need some time to your self" he chuckled.

"I look better than you"

"You always do"

"Thanks"

"Come on get up" he said pulling my hand

"Why I'm tired"

"We have 30 minutes before class starts"

"And?"

"Let's go for a walk you need a break from everything"

"Okay" I stood up and we walked the premises of the school.

Derek and I have the same classes so when we finished walking we headed to AP Calc which people says it's hard but I enjoy it. Call me a psychopath I don't mind.

-End of the school day-

"Did you drive to school?"

"No I took the bus" derek said

"Would you like to come pick up the kids with me?" I saw his eyes light up

"I would love too but can we get ice cream after?"

"Sure" I chuckled

We got into the car and drove to pick everyone up.

"Derek!" Alex said when he saw Derek sitting in the passenger side.

Derek got out and hugged Alex and Cristina. He helped them into the car and we drove off to pick up the last two.

I got out of the car and went inside to get the kids from their class while Derek stayed back and took care of the other two.

"Hey guys how was school" I asked

"Great!" Izzie exclaimed

"Wanna get ice cream with derek?"

"Derek's here?"

"Yep in the car waiting for us"

"Yay ice cream with derek!" George said

We walked to the car and Derek helped get them into their seats.

We drove to the ice cream shop and sat down at the picnic table outside.

"Here you go one coffee, one chocolate, one vanilla, and three strawberry." The waitress said handling us the ice cream cones.

10 minutes later

"Oh Alex gross!" I laughed throwing some napkins at his face. His mouth covered in chocolate ice cream.

"Not you too George! Come here" I chuckled.

I grabbed a napkin and cleaned his face. Boys love getting dirty.

"Atleast you girls are clea- Derek really" I said looking at Derek who copied the boys and had ice cream all over his mouth too.

I was laughing until I saw Ellis's car park at the shop. Everyone didn't notice but I did.

"Mer what's wrong" Derek asked

"Oh nothing come on guys let's throw away out trash and head home" I faked a smile and grabbed my trash.

We all got buckled in the car and started to drive home.

"Wait mer before we get home can we go to the park" Cristina said

"Yes mer can we" said Izzie

"The one down the street from the house or the one by the church?" I asked looking in the rear view mirror for a spilt second.

"By the church! By the church!" Everyone chanted

I nodded and drove to the park.

I parked in the parking lot and the kids rushed to the playground and started running around.

Derek and I sat on top of the monkey bars and let our feet swing from the top.

"So mer what was that at the ice cream shop?" Derek asked.

"I saw my mom.." I trailed off.

"Oh but why did we leave?"

"The kids looked so happy and everytime they see their parents they get sad. I just didn't want to ruin their mood" I said Derek wrapped an arm around me and kissed my forehead.

"I'm sorry"

"Me too"
