Don't Stop Belivin'

This is my first fic... right now it's just a one-shot but I may become a 2 or 3 shot I'm not sure just yet. Disclaimer: I own nothing excpet for my laptop on which I typed this with Positive. Meredith Shepherd stared at the tiny word on the fifth pregnancy test she had taken. Positive. The more she stared at it, the louder the word became in her head. Pregnant. She was pregnant. She and Derek had been trying for years and after many negative tests they had decided to stop focusing so much on trying and would let nature take its course. Meredith had started to give up hope. She had thought it was some higher power's way of telling her she shouldn't be a mother, but not long after they had stopped trying she had begun to feel sick. She hadn’t wanted to tell Derek yet. She hadn't wanted him to get his hopes up just to have them shattered when the test came back negative. She had just decided to go to the drug store on her way home from the hospital and buy a test. It would be negative and she could deal with that on her own instead of hurting Derek again with another negative test. Derek had still been at work, so it was the perfect time to do it. Just get it over with. Rip off the band-aid. No anesthesia. Much to Meredith's surprise the test had been positive. She hadn’t believed it. "It has to be wrong, a false positive," she had said to herself. She had driven back to the store and had decided to get four more just to be sure. Every test said positive. Meredith Shepherd was pregnant. She and Derek were going to have a baby. "How do I tell him?" she wondered out loud. "How do I tell my husband in a cheesy, romantic way that he will love, that we are having a baby?" Millions of ideas ran through Meredith's head, but not a single one of them sounded right. "Cooking? No, definitely not a good idea. Spelling it out with candles? No, that's too much even for my idiotic cheesy husband." She thought and thought and paced the bedroom and even rambled to herself, but nothing was coming to her. The next thing Meredith knew Derek was opening the front door to the house. "Shit!" "Mer?" "I'm…..I'm in the bedroom!" she yelled back. "Hey,” he breathed, kissing her hello. "Hi." "Why are you pacing in the bedroom, Mer?" Derek asked. "I'm…just thinking,” she said almost too quickly. "Hmmm, about what?" he asked "Umm…" "Meredith, whatever it is you can tell me." "Der…I….uh…I'm..." Meredith stumbled over her words, trying to find the best way to tell him. "Mer, what's wrong? Are you feeling ok?" Derek asked worriedly at his wife's behavior. "Impregnant," she said so fast that she couldn't even make out the words. "What? You're going to have to say that again, slower this time, Mer." "I'm…we….we're going to have a baby. I'm pregnant, Derek,” she said slower and calmer this time. Derek just stared at her. He just stood there and looked at her like she had four heads or something. "Derek? You're going to have to say something. Anything. Please." "Pregnant." It was all he was able to say before he grabbed his wife and kissed her hard. "Pregnant." Meredith breathed into his mouth as she returned the kiss, full of love and passion. They were going to have a baby. In nine months there was going to be a baby Shepherd in their home. Baby. Meredith already loved the sound of the word in her head. Baby. Author’s note. So Meredith is pregnant and they are happy and this was basically just some happy fluff that came to my head while I was sitting at work bored. I hope you all liked it. |

So here's part 2. I have decided to make this a 3 shot. It skips ahead in time and is from Derek's POV. Enjoy My beautiful wife is glowing. She hates when I tell her that, but it’s the truth. I love her swollen stomach that is growing my baby. I love to touch it and talk to it, even if Meredith rolls her eyes and calls me an idiot all the time I still love it. It has been six months since Meredith told me we were going to have a baby and I was in complete shock at first. We had stopped trying. I had almost given up hope and was ready to suggest adoption that night. I had been doing some research on it before I left the hospital and was going to bring it up to Meredith that night, and then she told me the best news of my life. Pregnant. Meredith was pregnant, and now six months later I can feel my baby and I have heard the tiny flutter of the heart beat. We are going to see Dr. Peterson today. Hopefully our tiny Baby Shepherd will decide not to be shy this time so we can find out the sex of our little one. I hope we are having a girl. I’ve told Meredith that I didn’t care, that I would be happy with whatever we have, which isn’t a lie, but I would love to have a little girl. A little girl with her mother’s nose and her mothers giggle that I love so much. “Der?” “Are you ready? Do you need help with anything?” He asked the second she was down the stairs. “I’m fine Der,” she rolled her eyes at her overprotective husband. “Don’t roll your eyes at me, I’m just making sure you and our baby are both doing okay today.” “We are both fine Derek and I think our baby would like to be called a name instead of ‘our baby’,” she said as she kissed him and he helped her with her coat. “You hear that little one, your mommy and daddy want to know if you are a boy or a girl so we can give you a name. You have to cooperate with us today little one,” Derek said to his unborn child while he rubbed Meredith stomach. The drive to the hospital seemed to take forever today. Maybe it was just because I am so excited to get to there and see my child and hopefully find out if we are having a little princess or a little baseball player. I already have names in mind, but I haven’t told Meredith yet because she would just roll her eyes and say we should wait until we know for sure before deciding on a name. We finally reach the hospital after what seemed to be hours. I ran over to Mer’s side of the car to help her out. She takes my hand and together we walk into the hospital where of course everyone looks at us, but this time they look and smile not look and whisper. “It’s almost time to see our baby Mer” “It is. And I hope you let us see you this time little one,” Meredith said to her own stomach and she rubbed her lower back with one hand and her swollen stomach with the other. “Kicking a lot?” Derek asked “Yes. We may have a soccer player on our hands” “Hmm, I guess I will have to read up on soccer then so I can know what I’m doing when the time comes to teach our little star,” he said with a smirk “Meredith Shepherd, to see Dr. Peterson,” Meredith said to the receptionist “Good afternoon Dr. Shepherd. Dr. Peterson will be right with you,” she said kindly. “If you would just take a seat the nurse will call you when they are ready.” After sitting in the waiting room for what felt like an hour the nurse finally called us back. Meredith had changed into her gown and was now getting her weight and vitals taken, which she hates the most. “Everything looks good Meredith,” the nurse said with a smile. “Dr. Peterson should be right in. “Thank you,” Meredith said “I hope we find out today,” my beautiful wife mumbled next to me “So do I. The waiting is killing me,” I say “Meredith. Derek. How are you two doing today?” Dr. Peterson said when she walked in. “Good, other than my child thinks that it’s fun to kick the crap out of me,” Meredith said trying to be serious but giggled the whole time. “Well lets see this baby and see if he or she will cooperate with us today.” Dr. Peterson turned on the ultrasound machine and there was my baby. Looking right at us. Finally turned in a way we could see him or her. “We can find out today. You’re 100% sure you want to know?” Dr. Peterson asked just to be sure. “Yes,” Meredith and I both side at the same time. “OK.” The suspense was killing me. Dr. Peterson knew what we were having and she was keeping quiet for far too long. “Well?” I asked “Congratulations, it’s a girl.” A girl. We are having a girl. I’m going to have my little princess to spoil. “Mer, we’re having a girl,” I say with the biggest smile on my face. “A girl,” She breathed before turning to kiss me. “A girl.” Author's note: Not to much to say really. Derek wanted a little girl and now he's getting one. This was just them finding out what they are having. More fluff and all that jazz. Part 3 will probably be up later today because I'm off and everyone else is at work so have nothing else to do. |

Here's part 3. It's again from Derek's POV because I felt it would just fit better. It's jumped ahead again by 3 months. Enjoy! Ella. Ella Michelle Shepherd was born April 26th at 5:24 am. Meredith was in labor for almost 14 hours before our little girl decided to finally come into the world. I can’t believe she is here. She’s perfect and tiny and just so beautiful. “Hi baby girl,” Derek whispered to his nearly three hour old daughter. “Your mommy and I have been waiting so long to meet you.” I walked around the hospital room bouncing my sweet little angel. Talking quietly to her while Meredith slept soundly. My poor Meredith. She was so exhausted from pushing. It pained me to see her that way. Gasping for air with each contraction. Seeing her in so much pain, but she said the end result was worth it, and I couldn’t agree with her more. “You look so much like your mommy,” I say quietly so to not wake Meredith just yet. Ella was going to be hungry soon and Meredith would want to be awake to feed her or even just to watch as I fed her, but right now she could sleep and I can bond with my daughter. “You’re named after your Grandpa Shepherd. He would be so proud of you.” I suddenly felt a tear roll down my cheek. I hadn’t even noticed I had been crying until now, but holding my child and talking to her about my father are both very emotional things for me at this moment. “Mmmm, Der?” I hear Meredith mumble as she begins to wake up “Right here.” “Do you have Ella?” “I do. Would you like to hold her mommy?” “Please.” I hand Ella over to Meredith carefully and after I’m sure she has her I kiss her softly on the lips. “Did you sleep ok?” “Yes. You wore me out Miss. Ella” She said to her daughter Ella just looked up at her mother. Meredith looked so beautiful holding her. I never thought I could love her more in my entire life, but in this very moment I do. “I love you,” I say “I love you too. So so much. Thank you Derek.” “For what?” I ask confused. She has nothing to thank me for, if anything I should be thanking her for giving me everything I have ever dreamed of. “Everything. You’re amazing and I love you and just…Thank you for being you.” I feel another tear roll down my cheek and I just can’t help but kiss her. “You’re welcome, but you don’t need to thank me for anything. I should be thanking you.” “Why should you thank me?” She asked “Because you have given me everything I have ever wanted. You love me and you put up with me, and you also gave me the greatest gift anyone could ever give me.” Meredith blushes and rolls her eyes but she knows that it’s the truth and that I mean every word. “She’s perfect, Derek.” “She is and she looks so much like her mother.” “But with her daddy’s hair and I hope soon her eyes will be her daddy’s too.” Just then Ella decided she was ready to eat. “I’ll go find the nurse and have her bring in a bottle.” “Okay. Derek?” “Yeah” “I love you” “I love you too Meredith. I love you too.” Meet Ella Michelle Shepherd ![]() Author’s note: So that’s it. The end. They had their baby girl and named her Ella Michelle. There really isn’t anything left to say. This was just some cute happy |

Aww that was so sweet... very refreshing to read. And yeah... I agree, using Derek's POV was better. Describing his feelings made the story cuter.
