What Was I To You?

Chapter 9

Humiliation. A feeling she'd never once felt before. Meredith sat in the fine rain on the swings alone, she used to see people in this position and ask why they never defended themselves but now that she was the one in the position, she understood. She never should have went to that party, a party that she never wanted to go to in the first place but the idea of making new friends and not forgetting the pleading from Addison to go, she thought why not? What did she have to lose?

Turns out it was more than she bargained for.

Right now, at this moment, Meredith had never felt so alone and humiliated. She had never experienced people confronting or being mean to her, she was a nice girl, a nice girl that everyone loved and respected. A popular girl. But not a girl with an ego that is too heavy to carry.

Her thoughts were disturbed by her phone ringing for what must have been the 20th time in the past hour, she knew she should probably answer it, that Addison would be worried about where she is, but she didn't have the confidence to talk to anyone. The last thing she wanted would be for Addison or Mark or Derek to confront the group of girls, that would only cause more trouble for herself, but she knew as soon as they found out what they done to Meredith, they would be on a war path. It's what friends do.

"She's not answering her phone." Addison sighed as she put her phone back on the desk.

"She's got to be here somewhere, it's Grey. She wouldn't just get up and leave." Mark said.

"Well then where is she Mark? Do you see her around? Because I don't." snapped Addison who received a glare from Mark.

"I'm sorry. I'm just worried about her." she picked up her phone again and called Meredith's cell one more time.

"No, so am I, especially after this morning, something definitely wasn't right." Derek admitted.

"She had cramps dude, stop worrying." Mark rolled his eyes.

"Exactly she could be in pain somewhere, alone, we need to find her and help her. Get her some chocolate and Tylenol." Derek blushed.

"Your such a girl." Mark laughed.

"Well when you grow up with four sisters, you learn a few things. Especially if you want to keep your sanity with them all screaming and crying at you." Derek winced at the thought of all four hormonal sisters taking their issues out on him.

"Sure your not a woman Shep?" Mark mocked.

"Shut up you asshole." Derek rolled his eyes and swatted the back of Marks head.

"Will the pair of you just shut up! Mer started the pill like two weeks ago because her period cramps were unbearable, she doesn't have a period anymore, which means she won't have cramps. She was lying to you." Addison told them both.

"And really Mark? Are you sure your not a woman with the way you cried like a bitch baby from a bee sting?" Addison sniggered making Derek laugh.

"Do you need reminding of how much of I woman I am not?" Mark smirked.

"No. I definitely do not." Addison shivered.

"Okay I'm not sitting here and listening about your sex life. What are we going to do about Mer?" Derek asked.

"Um." Mark muttered. "I have no idea."

"Try snap map." Addison said.

They checked it and found Meredith's location, she was last active 11 minutes ago.

"Shall we go?" Addison said as she started to stand up.

"I'll go." Derek offered.

"No, we'll all go. Come on." Addison told him.
