Meredith's POV:

A knock on the door makes me jump. I go to open it and immediately want to close it. Whitney is standing there and I pray he doesn't know about my contact with Chloe. "Hello, Mrs. King! I wanted to check in and make sure you are keeping your end of our little deal." Thankfully I restored my iPhone after texting Amy. I immediately hand it to him. He glances through the calls and texts and smiles at me. "Good!" I invite him in. "Meredith, I truly am sorry about what I did. It's just-" I hold up my hand. "Stop! It's in the past, Whitney!" He sits down and puts his head in his hands. "I still need to apologize! I'm-" I sigh and interrupt him again. "Whitney, stop please! Let me make you dinner!" He lifts his head and smiles. "Are you asking me on a date?" I smile and roll my eyes. "You wish!" Why is he making me act like a silly teenager again? I haven't felt this way since I met John. He laughs and thinks. "Hmmm, what are you going to make me?" I shrug. "What do you like?" He rubs his chin while keeping his eyes locked on mine. I giggle and again ask myself why I'm acting like a teenager. His eyes are the most wonderful shade of blue that I have ever seen. "Fettucini Alfredo please." I nod. "Coming right up."

I make the food and we eat, laugh, and talk about childhood memories. I know my guard is slipping fast even though it shouldn't. "No! Seriously, I thought I could fly! My mom tried to make me get off our roof, but I jumped and broke my arm AND leg! I screamed and my mom was caring and yet strict since she had warned me!" He eats the last bite of food. "I'd better go! My son...died today! I need to arrange a funeral!" I nod and internally know it was because of Chloe. I walk him to the door. "Good night, Meredith." I smile. "Good night, Whitney!" He smiles and slowly leans down. He stops a centimeter away from me to read my reaction. He finally brings his lips to mine and I can't control my heartbeat. I feel my knees shaking and the butterflies in my stomach will not slow down. His lips are soft and warm. He leaves after hugging me and giving me one more quick kiss. Is this some sort of way to keep tabs on me?

AN: Short! I know! Don't kill me or send Kai and his pack to get me!
