High School Never Ends

What to do

Meredith is now twelve weeks pregnant. The only one who knows besides her and Derek and their parents is Cristina. Meredith couldn't lie to her best friends. She is sick all the time now and starting to get a little stomach. Derek and she have been lying to everyone and it is getting harder.

One day after lunch right before Thanksgiving break Izzie and Addison go into the bathroom after Meredith ran from the cafeteria. They hear her throwing up and question her about it.

"Mer are you okay?" Questions ever protective Izzie. Meredith checks under all the bathroom doors to make sure they are alone before speaking.

"I am pregnant." She mumbled out softly barely above a whisper.

"I must of misunderstood I thought I heard you say pregnant." Addison said growing concerned for her friends.

"That is what I said." She says staring at her shoes and goes to leave the bathroom but turns back. "Oh it's a secret don't tell anyone."

"Does Derek know?" Izzie said staring at her friend's stomach.

"Yeah he knows he took me to the doctor and we found out together." With that Meredith left the bathroom and went back to the table.

After Christmas break Meredith tells Miss Caldwell she can no longer be a cheerleader. When she asks why Meredith can no longer lie and tells her that she is pregnant. She is shocked at first and then talks with her for a while. Then Miss Caldwell gets an idea and tells her to meet her after school with Derek and she will tell them about it.

All day Meredith and Derek are anxiously waiting to hear Miss Caldwell's idea. They are very happy when it comes to the afternoon to hear her idea. They meet up with her and Mr. Write in his office after the last bell of the day rang.

"Meredith and Derek thank you for meeting with us." Ms. Caldwell said. "I have an idea to run by the both of you. So please just hear me out."

They both nod their heads and listen intently to her and Mr. Write.

"Mr. Write and I are getting married in February. We want to have kids right away and you have a child. So we thought we could take care of two problems if you didn't want to keep your baby." She held onto Mr. Write's hand waiting for them to answer. They both looked relieved that someone wanted to raise there baby that they could trust. Meredith and Derek both still planned on going to college.

"Yes, I think it could work because Derek and I were planning on giving the baby up for adoption anyway. It would be good to give the baby to someone we trust." She smiles and gets up and walks out of the office with Derek.
