med school roommates

chapter 17

I turn on Derek's room light, walking in. He groans. "Its 7am.. what are you doing?" He groans. "I'm okay with it" I say. "What?" He asks.

"You're not a commitment guy.. I get it.. so if you want to date me.. and other girls at the same time.. we don't have to be official.." I say. He sits up. 

"If you do I don't want you to bring the girls back here.. I don't want to meet them and I don't want you taking them to dinners with our families" I say.

"but I want to be with you.. I want to keep seeing you as more than friends.. if that's something you don't want then tell me but I just thought you should know" I turn the light off and walk back to my room.

He walks into my room. I turn to face him. "What?" He says. "Derek.. just- just think about what you wanna do.. but I'm in either way" I put my hand on his cheek, kissing him softly.

"I'd rather be the only one dating you.. but sex wise.. I don't-" I sigh "if you want more than me then I get it.. we don't have to be official or whatever" I say. He looks into my eyes.

I look down nervously. "Mer I've not flirted- I've not even looked at any other girls since you told me you have feelings for me too.." he says. I look at him.

He holds my hand. I walk towards him. He puts his hands on my cheeks. "I only want to be with you.. that's all I've wanted since we got married under the tree with haribo rings when we were 7 years old" he chuckles softly. I smile.

"But-" I say. "Hey I'm not finished" he interrupts me. I grin, shutting up. "Meredith.. Will you be my girlfriend?" He grins, pushing my curtain bangs out of my face. "Mmmm... I'll think about it" I tease, a huge grin on my face.

He gasps. "Say yes" he tickles me playfully, making me laugh hysterically. "Stop!" I giggle, trying to pull his hands away.

"Say yes and I'll stop" he grins. He keeps tickling me. "Yes! Yes!" I say. He chuckles, stopping.

"Yes.. I'll be your girlfriend" I grin, wrapping my arms around his neck. "So that means you can't sleep with anyone else" he teases. I glare at him.

"You're the one to watch.. not me" I say. He chuckles. "I'm kidding.. I trust you" I say seriously. He smiles. I kiss him softly. I pull away, walking to my bed.

"What- where you going?" He asks. "I'm calling everyone in my contacts to tell them I have a boyfriend" I grin, picking up my phone. He laughs, walking over to me. I giggle as he takes my phone, shaking his head.

"Its time for school now anyway.. go get changed.. I'll brag later" I roll my eyes. He chuckles, walking to his room. We get ready for school and he drives us there.

Our class isn't for another 20 minutes so I'm sat in the break room. "Hey" cristina sits next to me. "Hi" I smile.

"What's up?" She asks. I look at her. She raises her brow. "I have a boyfriend" I grin. "Do you?" She chuckles at my excitement. I nod.

"Who?" She asks. Derek walks over to me. "Oh.. should've guessed" she says. I grin. "We're you talking about me?" He smirks, picking me up. I giggle as he sits down, putting me on his lap instead. I nod.

"I was just telling cristina that I have a boyfriend!" I say, emphasising the word boyfriend. They both chuckle.

Izzie walks over to us. "What you talking about?" She asks. "I have a boyfriend" I grin. She gasps. "You two?" She asks. We nod. "Wow" she smiles.

"I'm going to get water.. want anything from the vending machine?" He asks. "Coke please" I smile. He gets up. I sit back on the couch.

"So.." cristina says. "What?" I ask. "How is he?" Izzie smirks. "What?" I ask. "Hes the biggest player in college.. he must have some moves" cristina says. "Oh.. sex?" I ask. "Yes!" They both chuckle.

"We um.. we haven't actually.." I look down. "He hasn't done you yet?" Cristina gasps. "We've only been on 2 dates" I say. "You live together!" She says. I shrug.

"Is that bad?" I look at them. "Yes" cristina chuckles. "No!.. he probably just doesn't want to rush you" izzie says. "Probably" I smile small.

"You nervous?" Izzie asks. "A little nervous" I say. "I'm sure he knows what he's doing" cristina chuckles. "Who knows what they're doing?" Derek walks back over. "Nothing" I grin, thanking him as he passes me my coke.

"Come on.. class" he holds my hands, pulling me up gently. I stand up. "Bye guys" I smile at izzie and cristina. "Bye" they both smile. Mine and Derek's fingers entwine and we walk to class.

I look back at izzie and cristina. Cristina points at us before pretending to thrust her hips back and forth. My eyes go wide and I giggle as izzie hits her. "What?" Derek looks at me. "Nothing" I chuckle. We walk into class.

We walk out of class. I giggle as he pushes me up against the wall in the hallway, kissing me passionately.

"You made me drop my notes" I whine against his lips. "You're so sexy when you're being all nerdy" he smirks. "Shut up" I giggle.

"Derek" a girl walks over to us. We look at her. "I'm going to that party on Saturday.. you coming?" She smirks. "Dude.." I raise my brow.

"After you" she rolls her eyes. "She's my girlfriend" Derek says, putting his hands on my waist. I grin. She groans, rolling her eyes.

"Fine.. can you get mark to go with me?" She asks. "I'll get him to call you" he rolls his eyes. She walks away.

"Sorry" he looks at me. "Its okay.. not your fault" I smile. He kisses me softly. I look into his eyes. "Derekkk" I grin. "Yes?" He chuckles softly.

"Can we get pizza on the way home?" I ask. "Again?" He groans. "Pleeeaasseee" I grin. "Fine" he grins. We hold hands, walking out to his car.
