"Mommy, when is daddy coming home?" She asks, walking over to me. "I'm sure he's just running a little late" I pick her up, sitting her next to me on the couch. An hour late.

I pick up my phone and call him. I groan as it immediately goes to voicemail. "Do you think he forgotted?" She asks disappointed.

"No baby, he'd never forget about you" I smile, kissing her head. "Okay" she smiles, kicking her legs happily.

An hour later and she's asleep on my lap. I carefully pick her up and take her to mine and dereks bed, laying her down. I pull the covers over her.

"He fowgot" she opens her eyes. I stroke her hair gently. Her lip trembles. "Its okay, don't cry" I whisper, laying next to her. I wrap my arm around her.

She starts crying. I pick her up, pulling her onto my lap as I sit up. She cuddles Into me as she cries more.

"Baby, I'm sure daddy just got stuck at work.. you can go out tomorrow" I kiss her head. "But he pwomised!" She sobs. I'm going to kill him.

"Shh it's okay" I whisper, stroking her hair. She calms down a little and eventually falls back asleep in my arms.

A couple of hours later he walks into the apartment. I get up and walk over to him. "You stupid.. inconsiderate.. selfish bastard!" I push him against the wall.

"Meredith" he says, pulling me off of him. "Where were you!?" I hit him. "At work" he says.

"Mer, I'm sorry.. I just lost track of time.. I caught the guy who stabbed me and had to deal with him" he says.

"She's been crying for hours because her daddy forgot they were supposed to be going out.. don't apologise to me" I say. He sighs. I go to the bathroom, slamming the door behind me. I turn on the shower.

Derek's pov:
I walk to the bed, sitting next to her. "Lilia" I whisper. She opens her eyes slowly. Her eyes are red from crying. I sigh.

"Where's mommy?" She pouts, sitting up. She crosses her arms over her stomach angrily, glaring at me. "She's in the shower" I say. She stands up on the bed.

"Lily I'm really sorry" I say. "I'll never fowgive you!" She tears up. "Help me down" she sobs. "Baby, please don't be mad at me" I pick her up. She kicks her legs, glaring at me. I put her down.

She goes to the bathroom. "Mommy! Mommy!" She knocks on the door. She opens the door, wearing just a towel. She hugs her legs.

"I wanna stay with mama instead" she mumbles. Meredith glares at me, picking her up. She hugs her, closing the bathroom door behind her.

Meredith's pov:
I sit on the edge of the bathtub with her on my lap. "Do you not want to at least hear daddy out?" I put my hands on her cheeks. She shakes her head. She hugs me. I stroke her hair.

I pick her up and leave the bathroom. I look around the room. I frown as I see Derek's not here. I lay her on my bed.

I go to the drawers and get changed into my pyjamas. "Come on" I hold her hand, taking her to her room. I get her changed into her pyjamas and tuck her into bed.

She reaches for her Teddy that me and derek gave her when she was a baby. I pass it to her. "I love you mommy" she mumbles. "I love you more baby" I kiss her cheek.

"Daddy loves you too" I say. "I know" she whispers. "Can you tell me story?" She asks. "What do you wanna hear?" I twirl her hair around my finger.

"The mommy daddy stowy again" she says. "I told you that story three days ago" I chuckle. "Again" she says. I tell her the story of how me and derek met in my cafe and she falls asleep.

I go back to bed and climb under the covers. I wonder where derek went. I pull the covers over myself and cuddle into my pillow, closing my eyes. I fall asleep.
