It's been months since the night of incident on Malibu. Everyone tried thier best to move on and focus on their job.
It's also been months since Meredith decided to forgive Andrew, since then they've been talking not too much just a little conversation."Wait, am I missing something?" Christina asked while she sat next to Meredith inside the coffee shop near the building. Meredith grins. "So, since when did you and Andrew started talking?" she asked again. "Since, I let him talk and ask for forgiveness" Meredith replied smiling. "Really?" Christina said doubting. "Yeah?" Meredith replied. "Well, I used to think of you as someone who's dark. Since when did you learn how to forgive?" Christina said sarcastically. "Christina!! I am not that mean, of course I know how to forgive" she said elbowing Christina. They both chuckled.
Derek called Andrew and Meredith, he said it's something really important. Meredith walks to his office, her face is turning red. She's nervous, she's afraid that Derek found out about her and Andrew's past. She met Andrew just a few meters away from Derek's office.
"Do you think he knows?" she asked. "I don't know but let's hope not" he replied. "What if he found out, he will despise me" she said worriedly. "Oh c'mon, Mer I'm sure he will not despise you you're his fiance and besides that there is nothing going on between the us, it's all in the past. Right?"Andrew stated. "Yeah, it's all in the past" she replied. They continued walking until they both reached his office. They walked inside together."Hey, you're here" Derek stand up. Meredith noticed a very unfamiliar expression on his face. Sweat are streaming down on Andrew's forehead.
"What's the matter, Derek?" she asked frightened. "I am assigning you two on a project together" he sighs. Meredith felt a relief. "What?" she asked shocked. "The two of us?" Andrew asked. "Yeahh, the two of you" he replied. "Isn't there others who can work him, i still have reports to do" she said. "Nope, i picked the two of you. The client really wanted to meet Andrew and i chose you because you know everything that happens here" he said. "Okay, you've made your decision" she sighs. "You're going to New York together for two days" Derek added. "What?" Andrew asked shocked. "New York? The two of us?" she asked. "Yeah, you'll go tomorrow" Derek replied.They continued talking about the project and the client they will meet on New York. Meredith wants to decline the assignment but there's nothing else she could do Derek has made his decision final and he's right she knows everything that goes on inside their company. It's just that even though he has forgiven Andrew, she's still not comfortable being around him for so long.
And now, they're staying on New York together, just the two of them together.Meredith went home to pack her things, Christina help her. "You have got to be kidding me. You're staying on New York for two days with him?" Christina exclaimed. "I'm not kidding, as much as i want to decline the project but Derek has made his decision. And besides its for the company's sake so I have no other choice but to go there with him" she said. "Well, you've forgiven him, you've move on so there's nothing to worry about" Christina stated. "I don't know, I'm not sure if I'm ready to spend two days with him. I'm still not comfortable" she said fixing her bag. They continued fixing Meredith's things.
The next morning....
The alarm clock rings over and over again. "Oh shit!!" she opened her eyes and look at the time it's past 7 in the morning their flight is 9:00 am. "Damn it!! I'm late" she quickly stand up and went straight to her bathroom. She took a quick bath, she brushed her teeth, picked the clothes she's going to wear, she put on a little make up. By the time she finished it's already 8:20 am. She grabbed her things and called for a taxi.She reached the airport at exactly 8:50 am. She looked for Andrew, she saw him standing also looking for her. "Heyy!!" she shouts, waving her hands to Andrew. "Eyy!" Andrew greeted, he help her with her bags. "Sorry I'm late" she said. "It's alright" he replied quickly.
They stepped inside the airplane. They sat next to each other. Meredith sat on the window side so she could enjoy the view.When the plane manage to take off successfully, Meredith looked at view. She looked at Andrew who's already asleep wearing headphones. She looked back on the window, wondering about what could possibly happen once they reached New York.
