Shattered

CHAPTER ONE

It was a rainy day in Seattle just like everyday. In the state you usually see about seven semi-clear days which are nice; today was not. The thunder and rain droplets kept banging against Meredith's window like a drum keeping her up. "God the rain will not let up tonight" meredith mumbled trying to use her pillow to cover her head and drown out the noise. She shifted a few times in her bed before giving up and getting up out of bed. She looked at her alarm clock seeing that the clock says 3:10. "Crap I still have another 2 hours before I actually have to get up" She grumbles while exiting her bed and leaving her room.

She leaves and checks to see if anyone else happens to be awake. Meredith has 3 roommates. Izzie and George who she met during her first year as an intern and Derek who's Meredith's best friend since they were kids.

Meredith notices that Derek's bedroom light is still on and approaches it and knock. She slightly creeks the bedroom door open as she sees derek reading another one of his medical journals. "Hey, you up?" Meredith whispers creeking the door half open. " Yeah I couldn't sleep. You can come in" derek replies and Meredith creeps in and plops on Derek's bed.

"I couldn't sleep either. Could I hang with you. I still have a couple of hours till I gotta wake up for rounds." Meredith said. " Yeah sure, come here" Derek said as he motions her to sit next to him. Meredith scoots next to him as he continues to read. Meredith stays up for a little but feels her eyes become heavy as the room becomes dark. "It's ok Mer, go to bed and I'll wake u in a couple" derek said as he feels her head relax on his shoulder. She was able moments after to drift into a deep sleep next to Derek.

It's weird but she always felt safe with him. Safety.
