surprise daughter // greys anatomy

Chapter 19

The next day rolled around quickly, I just want this day to be over with "should I be nervous? Like more nervous then I am now?" I asked derek as I was getting my shirt on

"Mer, calm down" derek told me

"Calm down?!?! You want me to calm down when in a few hours we are about to meet the parents of the kids who almost killed our daughter" I said whispering the last part

"Here pretend you are talking to a patients family today, calmly and formally" Derek said putting his hands on my shoulder as we look at each other in the mirror

We finish getting ready and head out our bedroom door to see Sarah's door open wide "sarah?" I asked as I peered into her room

"Hi momma" Sarah said behind me, I jumped a little when she spoke

"Oh my god Sarah don't scare me" I laughed

She smiled and walked into her room "so Lexie is off of work today and she will take care of you so be extra good, if you are amazingly good today we will go out to a restaurant your pick" I told her, a huge smile appeared on her face we haven't been to a restaurant together as a family. Sarah always likes to do new things and she's never been to a restaurant before

"I will be extra good today momma, I love you" she told me, I gave her a hug "rest up daddy and I love you" I blew a kiss to her and walked out of her room closing the door behind me, I walked downstairs to see derek waiting for me

"Everything okay?" He asked me

"Yeah I just told Sarah that if she's extra good today we would go to a restaurant" I laughed walking out the door

He opened the door for me and I sat down in the car once derek got in the car he took my hand and kissed it "I love you okay and everything is going to be fine I'll be there, Richard and Nelson will be there backing us up" he told me putting our hands on the middle Console

Once we got into the hospital a few hello's and hi's from other doctors and nurses we then got greeted by Richard and Nelson "they are in that room" Richard told us, all four of us walked into the room seeing two couples and Dr. Reynolds

"Mr. and Mrs. Shepherd thank you for joining us" Reynolds said

I looked at derek and mouthed Mrs. Shepherd, he raised his shoulders in confusion "now we officially can get started" he then said, we all sat down

"Now we are here because of a situation that happened two months ago, now Sarah came into this hospital because she passed out at school but yesterday she stated that your daughters hit her on the head with a book" Reynolds said

"My daughter wouldn't do that" Fallons mother said

"when she came in we did all of the tests we could, nothing could indicate that she actually passed out. When they did the CT scan a tumor showed up, she was previously at this hospital a year ago and when then did a scan nothing showed up expect for a brain bleed which rarely forms into a tumor and the week before she came in for passing out they did a follow up scan from a year ago nothing showed up" Reynolds then told them

The parents looked stunned at everything "how is Sarah?" Elizabeth's dad asked

"She is recovering fine, she's at home with her aunt" I told him

A pager went off and I quickly checked mine "damnit someone's aneurysm blew" derek mumble

"I'll do it shepherd, you have to stay here" Nelson said and literally ran out the door

"Wait your a doctor? Here?" Elizabeth's mother flirted, I glared at her when he nodded

"Okay let's get back" Richard said

"Okay but why are we here again? Our daughters hit their daughter with a book and a tumor appeared but Dr. Nelson got it out" Fallons father said

"I'm not sure if you know but this hospital was in a shooting a month and half ago, a doctor here left Sarah unattended and she escaped from the pediatric wing of the hospital. She found her way to the OR floor where she saw a man holding a gun up to Dr. Shepherd here while he was be operated on by Dr. Yang and Dr. Avery when her mother Dr. Grey told him to shoot her instead then Sarah told the shooter to shoot her instead" Reynolds told them, tears were escaping at a rapid pace as he spoke derek put his hand on top of mine then in his lap rubbing my arm

"Oh my god" fallon's mom put her hand over her mouth

"So our daughters drove Sarah to ask someone to kill her?" Elizabeth's mom asked Dr. Reynolds

"Dr. Shepherd, Dr. Grey. I am so unbelievably sorry for what Elizabeth and Fallon have done to your daughter, no parents should have to go through what you both have been through. When Fallon gets out of school today I'm going to have a very very stern talk with her" Fallons father told us

"I'll do anything to make up for it and I mean anything" Elizabeth's dad said

"We couldn't take it" Derek told him

"No I mean it" he told us getting out his wallet

I looked at derek "Sarah always wanted a puppy?" I told them, both of the dads nodded

"You can give me your number and I will find a dog do you know what kind?" Fallons father asked

"A German Shepherd, she thinks it cool that a dog has our last name" I said with a laugh

"Done deal, We will make sure Fallon and Elizabeth get the punishment they deserve" Elizabeth's father to us

We exchanged numbers, shook hands and this meeting was over finally "that turned out better than expected" I said once we get into the car

"Sarah is gonna be happy she's getting a dog" derek laughed, he kissed me right before we were about to leave the parking lot of the hospital
