According to Derek, there is a wrong and a right way to wrap presents, here I thought it didn't matter, you just put paper around it and then your good. We have been wrapping presents for almost a week now and I'm starting to get the hang of it! We've been wrapping presents for Derek's four sisters, mom and his nieces and nephews, all of which I have not met yet. We leave in two days and I am still not anywhere close to being packed.
DECEMBER 20th- 5 days until Christmas
"Have you started to pack yet?" Derek asked me from the bathroom as I got changed, noticing that I would not be able to hide my bump for much longer. "No" I bluntly replied, Derek walked out of the bathroom to see that I was focused on looking at my bump in the mirror, "well you should start soon" he suggested, as he wrapped his arms around me and the baby. We stayed there for awhile in silence before he said, "you look beautiful and I love you", I look over at him in shock, 'he said it does that mean I have to say it or does that mean I don't mean it-' he spoke to reassure me "you don't have to say it back, I just wanted to let you know". "We have to get to work" he started to walk out of the room but I stopped him, "I love you Derek Christopher Shepherd... and I cannot wait to start my life with you" there was a smile on my face the whole time, Derek turned around kissed me passionately, his hands were on my waist and my arms around his neck, we broke off and he smiled at me.
~At the hospital 3 hours later~
Me and Cristina were sitting on a gurney eating lunch while I ranted to her, "I have to spend 3 days with all four of Derek's sisters, their kids and his mom, who I'm sure hates me, you know what I bet they all hate me, they all probably loved Addison too and I'm just the slutty intern who broke up Derek's marriage" Cristina rolled her eyes at me and then spoke, "all of those things that you listed off are probably true but, you're forgetting something-", she motion to my growing bump "- you said that his sisters have kids so that's what you can talk to them about" I took a deep breath out and then responded, "your right, thank you" I got off the gurney to go run labs for Dr. Torres.
"You paged, Dr. Torres?" I asked as I walked up to her in radiology, "yes I did, this is Ms. Robinson's x-ray what do you see?" she pointing to an x-ray of a collarbone, I responded quickly "her collarbone is broken pretty much in half" Dr. Torres nodded "right, so what would the treatment plan be for Ms. Robinson?" I took a minute to think and then answered "well, in this case Ms. Robinson would require surgery, where we would place metal rods to keep the bone in place" she replied "okay lets go inform the patient".
We told Ms. Robinson about her collarbone and then booked the OR. I went to go sit down because my feet had been killing me the whole day, I found a chair behind the nurses station and looked over her post-ops. "Ugh" I groaned moving my body around in the chair, trying to get comfortable, Izzie walked over to get one of the nurses a patient chart and saw me moving around, "how ya' feeling?" she asked curiously even though I told her that I didn't want to talk about it at work. "Fine just sore" I satisfied her curiosity so she walked away, I got up to go find somewhere to lay down.
I sat down in the on-call room to close my eyes and then the door opened, Derek walked in, "hey, how are you?" he smiled at me, sitting on the end of the bed, "I'm okay" I nodded while speaking and he looked at for a long time. "No your not, Meredith your 16 weeks and you never lay down, you are not fine, please tell me maybe I can help" Derek looked right at me with his deep blue eyes, "okay, I'm not fine, I'm exhausted, my feet have been killing me all day and so has my back" I took a deep breath. He moved his body behind me, starting to massage my back, I closed my eyes 'ohhhh this feels so good, why didn't he do this earlier?'. Once he was done I laid back onto him and he wrapped his arms around me, I knew that we were both safe now, Derek would never let anything happen to me and his child.
