This Is What Dreams Are Made Of: Merder

Baby or DC

"You're what?" Derek said shocked. "We weren't even trying. Hell we weren't even attempting. What we have sex maybe 4 times since you've had the twins and you're pregnant again? What ever happened to this hostile uterus. Like Meredith don't get me wrong, I am thrilled you know me, I always wanted a big family, but you do realize that this is crazy and we are going to have 5 kids under 6 by the time this one is born, well what do we know, you might be carrying triplets, maybe quadruplets in there since apparently you went from hostile to over producing in 15 minutes.

"And that's the exact reaction I was expecting. Honestly, you drop a freaking bomb on me, you want to uproot everything and move to freaking Washington D.C. where we would have no family and no friends to help us with the kids? Oh and don't even say one of your sisters could come from New York or Maryland to come help us because you know every single one of them hates me except Amy who conveniently lives in SEATTLE, where we have this beautiful house you built us, amazing friends and the perfect jobs here. What do you expect me to do in D.C.? Work at a basic hospital that I won't learn anything at? I can't do it Derek, we can't move 6 people across country and expect to settle in. Seattle is our home."

"I don't understand why it is such a big deal, you act like we won't make money in Washington, we make what 3 million a year here combined? Mer we could be making 5, 6, 7 million in D.C."

"You don't understand. It's not about the money. It's the fact that we physically cannot move that far away and think everything will be perfectly fine. It's about the fact that our family is here. We have settled in here. Zola goes to school here and has friends. All of their Aunt's and Uncle's live here, and don't act like your sisters who live on the east coast don't have enough money to fly themselves out here to see the kids every once in a while. They don't put the effort in so why should we? I can't take the kids away from what they have here. They love having Callie, Arizona, Jackson, April and Alex here. They're all just a phone call away and they don't mind taking them for a few hours if we need them to. What happens when we go to D.C. and lose that luxury? Derek, i'm not going."

"Fine. I'll try to work something out, maybe I can stay here during the week, and go there on weekends. I'm not even exactly sure what's going on there, and why they want me, this was all sudden for me, we've just started talking about it. I'm sorry for what I said earlier about the new baby. I'm just shocked and nervous about having 5 kids. I mean I always said I wanted a house filled with kids, and a beautiful wife, in my house in the woods."

"I mean, that'll have to work I guess. I just don't think I want to all the way across the country with 4 kids and being pregnant. I just don't think it would be practical for us right now. If this is really what you want to do, then go do it. I'll support you through it." I said back to him. I really did mean that I would support him. I just was reluctant on this whole traveling thing.

"Thank you, and see even when i'm gone, you'll have Alex, Jackson, April and all of them to help you with the kids if you need it."

"Sounds like a pretty good plan to me." I said before getting up and going back over to the sink to finish cleaning up.

AN: I'm trying to go along with the plot of season 11 of grey's but just adding in the whole pregnant plot for something a little extra. I don't own anything from Grey's if I did season 11 would've ended differently and Derek wouldn't have you know what. If you came from my other fanfic "ooo baby baby" comment below!!!! ily guys.
