Later that evening Meredith is stood by the door watching Eden sleep.
She sighs heavily and pulls the door shut and heads into the kitchen clutching papers in her hand.

Meredith-Ok lets get this done.

Meredith reads through the papers and signs on the dotted line 8 years of marriage all gone 8 years of her life all over.
The man she trusted thought would never hurt her left her broken-hearted.
She had to leave run away and here she is in her childhood home somewhere she vowed never to return but she was left with very little choice.
At first she choose to ignore the hickies on her husband's neck him smelling of other women's perfume she tried for Eden's sake to make it work but she was desperately unhappy.
When she first told her husband she was leaving her laughed told her she wouldn't survive without him Meredith believed him let him wear her down but coming home from a 16hr shift to their house they shared as a family and finding another woman in their bed she flipped grabbed her bag and rushed to the school dragged Eden out of class and headed to a hotel while trying to figure out her next move.
Which luckily for Meredith had a doctorate conference weekend going on and she bumped into an old family friend Richard Webber who offered her a second chance Meredith accepted and here she is sat in her childhood home in the kitchen that desperately needs decorating.
She looks around and bursts into tears so unsure if she is doing the right thing her cell starts ringing in her bag she answers the call.

Meredith-I told you stop calling me.

Man-Meredith come home.

Meredith-Stop calling me leave me alone.

Meredith disconnects the call.
The following week she is desperate to make Eden happy and get the house right and liveable she hires professional decorators buys brand new furniture.
Eventully the house looks great and Meredith prepares to get Eden ready for her first day at school and she gets ready for her first shift at the hospital.
That morning Meredith drops Eden at school and walks through the reception of Seattle Grace bumping into Derek.

Derek-Nice to see you again Dr Grey.

Meredith-Oh Dr Sheperd good morning.

Derek-You got everything you need.

Meredith-Yes just need to pick up my pager.

Derek-I'll take you there i'm heading that way have you met the rest of your residents yet.

Meredith-No haven't found the time iv'e been busy.

Derek-Looking after your daughter and working here life must be mad.

Meredith-Life is settling down i'll put it that way.

Derek-So when do we get to meet your husband.

Meredith-My husband.

Derek-Your ring is he also a doctor.

Meredith-Oh that yeah my uh my marriage is actually over in the middle of a divorce but i can't get the stupid thing off.

Derek-Try baby oil worked for me.

Meredith-Your divorced.

Derek-Yeah welcome to the club.

Meredith-Club oh uh yeah thanks.

Derek-Sorry that was a stupid joke i was just glad my marriage ended clearly your still raw as such.

Meredith-Oh um i'm glad it's over but adjusting yeah i'm still adjusting to it.

Derek-If you need any advice i'm around.

Meredith-Oh yeah thank-you but i'm sure we will be ok.

Derek-Your new to Seattle right.

Meredith-No i grew up here left 10years ago.

Derek-Oh that's cool i didn't realise your mother lived here.

Meredith-You knew my Mom.

Derek-Kinda she terrified me taught me in college.

Meredith-Terrified you try having her for a mom.

Derek-Yeah sorry to hear about her illness.

Meredith-Oh right you know.

Derek-Yeah sorry i wasn't going to say anything but i just felt i should is she ok.

Meredith-Oh um she's in a home Alzhimers final stages doesn't even reconise me anymore but then i haven't seen her for nearly 10yrs so it's understandable.

Derek-Is there anything i can do.

Meredith-No no it's uh no just a waiting game i think i know that sounds awful.

Derek-No i understand right we are here see Thomas and he will assign you a pager and i'll take you to the doctor's lounge and make some introductions.

Meredith-Oh right ok.

Chief-Dr Sheperd.

Derek-Chief.

Chief-How is Dr Grey settling in.

Meredith-Dr Sheperd i just paged you.

Derek-What's the problem.

Meredith-I was called down for a consult 8yr Tiffany Bennett extensive head damage iv'e taken CT scans and she is currently in MRI.

Derek-What was the cause.

Meredith shows Dr Sheperd the scans and he sighs.

Meredith-No chance is there.

Derek-No the bleeding is extensive we could go in but i don't think it would help.

Meredith-I'll tell her Mom.

Derek-I'll come with you.

Meredith and Derek walk off towards Tiffany's mom.

Cristina-I like her she seems kinda ok.

Alex-Yeah i suppose thats true you know i'm sure i reconised her from somewhere.

Meredith smiles and walks away bumping into Cristina and Izzie.

Cristina-Hey Meredith are you going.

Meredith-Oh um i can't i'm sorry.

Cristina-Go on everyone will be there proper introductions.

Meredith-I really appreciate the offer but i can't i have to pick my daughter up from school.

Meredith-Nothing i'm sorry really bad day at work.

Eden-School was cool i made loads of friends.

Meredith-That's great babe.

Meredith and Eden head home and as they pull up Meredith's cell starts ringing.

2 weeks pass and Meredith seems to be settling in more with the staff at Seattle Grace especially Derek they work together everyday and she is really enjoying his friendship and the surgeries he allows her to deal with she is really trying to get along with the other residents and eventully they brgin to understand why she chooses not to go out and instead goes home to Eden Izzie after meeting Meredith's daughter only once falls completly inlove with her taking her shopping and spoiling her.
Later that night Derek is walking down the corridor and he finds Eden sat on a gurney.

Derek-Eden.

Eden-Hello Dr Sheperd.

Derek-Derek.

Eden-Eden.

Derek smiles and Eden giggles as Derek sits next to her.

Derek-Waiting for your Mom.

Eden-Yeah we are going out.

Derek-Anywhere nice.

Eden-Don't know she has a surprise for me she left her bag with me promising not to be long that was over 20 minutes ago.

Derek-I thought she finished ages ago.

Eden-She did but she forgot to sign off a chart so we had to stop on the way back.

Derek-You settling in ok.

Eden-Yeah i really like the house and iv'e made loads of new friends Izzie is so cool she took me shopping yesterday i bought oads of new clothes.

Derek-That's good.

Eden-Is Mom ok here.

Derek-Yeah she seems to be really settling in she's an amazing surgeon.

Eden-Cool she seems to be happy she wasn't happy in NY.

Derek-I heard she's going through a divorce.

Eden-Yeah Mom and Dad are getting divorced i really miss my Daddy.

Derek-You a Daddy's girl then.

Eden-Yep my Daddy anything i wanted he gave me i miss him but Mom was sad and i'm her kid she gave birth to me carried me for 9 months so i go with her as she says.

Eden giggles at her words and Derek frowns.
Meredith walks back along the corridor towards Derek and Eden just as her cell starts ringing in her bag Eden answers it.

Eden-Hi Daddy.

Meredith rushes to them as she realises Eden has answered her cell.

Eden-Yeah we are in.

Meredith snatches the phone from Eden to Derek's shock and speaks into her cell before quickly closing it.

Meredith-Don't do that.

Eden-Mom i was talking to my daddy.

Meredith-Eden lets go.

Eden storms towards the elevator.

Derek-Meredith are you ok.

Meredith-Fine yes i'm fine it's ok.

Derek-Meredith is everything ok.

Meredith-Yes i'm fine goodnight Dr Sheperd.

Derek watches Meredith and Eden walking across the car-park he sighs and walks away.
He has recently found himself enjoying Meredith's company but finds her secrecy about all aspects of her life very hard to deal with.

Meredith pulls up at the docks in silwnce Eden is sat in the front with her arms folded and thw biggest scowl on her face.

Meredith-Baby.

Eden-I was talking to Daddy he wanted to know where we were.

Meredith-Yeah i bet he did.

Eden-Mom why did we come here to Seattle.

Meredith-Because my mother she's sick.

Eden-Not because Daddy made you cry.

Meredith-Yes that too but my mother needs me.

Eden-Why am i not allowed to see her.

Meredith-She's sick.

Eden-Daddy said she is losing her mind that she's mad.

Meredith-She's not mad she's sick she has alzheimers which is an illness it makes her really forgetful.

Eden-Can i go see her.

Meredith-No baby she's sick and doesn't like visitors i go to see her and she doesn't even reconise me.

Eden-Really aww Mom thats so sad.

Meredith-Yeah listen anyway time for your surprise.

Eden-The water.

Meredith-No i promised you a ferry boat at night so here we are.

Eden-Wow really.

Meredith-The lights of Seattle at night is the most amazing thing babe you'll love it.

Eden-Cool.

Meredith drives her car onto the ferry and they head to the top and Eden absouetly loves it she is completly transfixed by the lights and sparkling sea as they slowly make there way across the calm sea.
Eventully Eden starts to flag and climbs into the back seat and falls aslep Meredith smiles as she pulls a blanket over her.
She walks to the edge and looks at her wedding ring and engagement ring twinkling in the moonlight she kisses them and throws them into the dark sea.

Derek-Meredith

Meredith-Dr Sheperd.

Derek-Meredith.

Meredith-Sorry Derek.

Derek-Are you ok.

Meredith-Yes listen i'm sorry about my outburst earlier you shouldn't of been witness to my emotional breakdowns.

Derek-It's ok is everything ok i'm just you are so guarded.

Meredith-You don't want to hear about it.

Derek-I'd like to think i'm also a friend and not just your boss.

Meredith-You are Derek.

Derek-So please trust me i'm here as a friend as your boss whatever you need.

Meredith-It's just so messed up.

Derek-Your husband are you on the run did he hit you.

Meredith-Hit me no never i'd like to see him try he just he cheated endlessly on me i was so inlove with him yet i was never enough.
I gave him a daughter that beautiful girl is all his and still it wasn't enough to keep him there with us.

Derek-Meredith i'm sorry.

Meredith-Don't be i finally had enough and left him but he wants me back has made all these promises that i don't believe for a second.

Derek-He doesn't know your in Seattle.

Meredith-No but he will eventully find me he will show up here begging for forgiveness swearing he's changed.

Derek-Will you go back.

Meredith-No not this time i can't but Eden she is such a Daddy's girl she hangs on his every word she absouetly adores her father and he is angry iv'e taken her away from him.

Derek-He doesn't seem very nice.

Meredith-He was the most amazing man when i fell inlove with him he broke my defences promised me the world and then took it all away.

Derek-I'm sorry Meredith.

Meredith-I'm ok what about your marriage.

Derek-Wife cheated with my best friend we lived in NY i was kinda absent you know working long hours and they betrayed me.

Meredith-Oh i'm really sorry.

Derek-Thank-you i gave it a 2nd chance 3 years we tried but i just couldn't i couldn't forget the betrayal.

Meredith-Hurts like hell don't it you always ask why your not enough.

Derek-We were married 11 years i mean it was over 9 years ago now the affair but i'm amazed at how the anger still appears.

Meredith-First time i caught him with another woman i blamed myself i wasn't exactly the best wife i had just had Eden and was run ragged,
He swore it was a one-off never again and for a while he was the best then the tell tale signs appeared he was always coming home late smelt of a woman's perfume that wasn't mine hickies on his neck.

Derek-Hickies what is he 10.

Meredith-Sometimes i asked myself that very question.

Derek-You your rings.

Meredith-Baby oil i just threw them cost him a few thousand dollars now at the bottom of the sea.

Derek laughs and Meredith giggles and they catch eachother's eye Meredith looks away quickly as the ferry horn sounds signalling the end of their journey.

Meredith-Thank-you Derek.

Derek-Anytime listen how about dinner next week just friends we can take Eden with us try and help her forget her Dad.

Meredith-Friends.

Derek-Just as friends i don't want to complicate things for you Meredith.

Meredith-Ok dinner friends Eden really likes you.

When are we going to find out who is (or was) Meredith's husband. He sounds like a trouble-maker and the worst part is that Eden is Daddy's girl. I hope she becomes Daddy Derek's girl soon :snigger:

More please!

Derek look up to see both Meredith and Eden asleep they look so peaceful he doesn't want to wake them.
He pulls a blanket over them and heads up to bed.
A few hours later Meredith wakes up and for a second doesn't realise where she is her cell is vibrating in her bag she opens it up and sighs as she sees the name flashing on the screen she closes her phone and hears noise coming from the kitchen.
She gets up and walks along to find Derek filling a flask with coffee.

Derek-Morning.

Meredith-Hey i uh i'm sorry we fell asleep.

Derek-Don't be sorry.

Meredith-Are you going to work.

Derek-No i'm on day off.

Meredith-Me too.

Derek-We are going to see the sunrise hence coffee and the waking of Eden.

Meredith-That won't be easy she hates getting up early she's just like her father.

Derek-Oh i love the mornings best part of the day.

Meredith-Iv'e decided i'm gonna let her go.

Derek-Go where.

Meredith-Camp i was talking too well he rang me last night and i'm pretty sure it's only a matter of time before he tracks me down.

Derek-Are you worried.

Meredith-No actually i'm not i'm immune to his promises now they go through me like an open drain.

Derek-Are you ok.

Meredith-Yeah i'm good anyway what time does this sun rise.

Derek-In 22 minutes.

Meredith-It will take me that to wake her up.

Meredith laughs and puts her phone down and walks into the living-room.
Derek follows as Meredith's phone starts vibrating on the table he glances down and sees the caller ID it makes him laugh as on the screen is ''asshole'' he walks in and finds Meredith trying to wake Eden who is having none of it.

Derek-Can i try.

Meredith-Be my guest.

Derek leans down and whispers something to Eden and she is up and wide awake.

Meredith-How did you.

Derek-It's a trick i got from having so many nieces and nephews.

Eden-Morning Mom.

Meredith-Morning babe.

Derek ushers them out of the house to the cliff just as the sun is coming up on the horizon.

Eden-Wow Derek that is amazing.

Meredith-It's beautiful.

Derek-I try to come and see it everyday when i can it's just as good at sunset.

Eden-Can we stay and see the sunset please Mom.

Meredith-Oh i uh.

Meredith looks at Derek who is smiling.

Derek-It's absouetly fine.

Meredith-Ok looks like we are staying but we have to go shopping today and i need to pop into your school.

Eden-Eugh shopping i hate it.

Meredith-Well unless we go shopping you can't go to camp.

Eden-I'm allowed to go.

Meredith-Yes.

Eden-Aww brilliant thanks Mom.

Derek-So do i get to see the Grey's girls shopping.

Eden-You want to go shopping.

Derek-Yes i have a few things to get.

Eden-Daddy hates shopping he moans all the time about it.

Meredith-Yeah but he always finds something to occopy his mind like eyeing up the women.

Eden-What was that Mommy.

Meredith-Oh nothing baby it's ok.

Derek-I can drive if you like.

Meredith-Well that would be a plan seeing as i don't have my car.

Derek laughs and Eden pushes open the front-door.

Derek-Is this ok me coming if it's too much or to fast just tell me to stop.

Meredith-It's fine honestly.

They eventully manage to get out of the house and Meredith goes to the school to pay for Eden's school trip but her card is declined.

Derek-Let me get it.

Meredith-No i have the money i just need to get to the bank.

Derek-Let me do it then you can pay me back.

Meredith wearily nods as Derek pays for Eden's trip and drives her to the bank.
She heads inside and returns with a face of thunder as she meets Derek who is outside a clothes store watching Eden looking at clothes.

Meredith-Here's the money thank-you.

Derek-You ok.

Meredith-He's frozen our joint account.

Derek-What.

Meredith-He's cleaned out the account everything he took all our savings the asshole i can't believe he would do that.

Derek-Why did he.

Meredith-Because he thinks it will make me go back but he forgets i have my own money more than enough to live on the rest of my life and death.

Derek-The more you tell me the more i hate him.

Meredith-If you knew him you'd hate him.

Derek-You ok.

Meredith-Yes i'm just i'm angry with myself with everything how can you misjudge someone so badly.

Derek-It happens Meredith i did it.

Meredith-If it was just me i'd walk away so easily but she adores her father she wants to see him she sees no fault in him.

Derek-She will eventully.

Meredith-I know and that's what i don't want to happen.

Derek-I don't understand.

Meredith-He's her father her idol she thinks he is the best i don't want her to see Mark's real side.

Derek-Oh i kinda understand your theory.

Meredith-I just want to hurt him so much but he is immune to everything.

Derek-Meredith just i know it's easy for me to say but just calm down and forget him he clearly isn't worth getting yourself so upset.

Meredith-I know he's not i just it's hard.

Derek pulls Meredith into his arms and she holds him tight she feels so safe in Derek's strong arms.

Derek-Better.

Meredith-Yes thank-you.

Eden-Mom come and see all these clothes iv'e chosen.

Derek looks at Eden and the piles of clothes she has and laughs.

Meredith-I'm sorry.

Derek-For what.

Meredith-You must think i'm a right miserable cow.

Derek-No i don't think that.

Meredith-I'm not usually like this just you met me at the worst time in my life.

Derek-I like what i see but i know you need time and a friend and i'm here for you.

Meredith-Really i just don't see why.

Derek-Because i think your amazing i know that sounds cheesy but your amazing so today forget all about Mark and his behaviour and we will enjoy ourselves in this highly overpriced glass house they call a mall.

Meredith laughs.

Derek-Good a smile it's a start now we better go and sort through the clothes Eden wants to buy because i'm pretty certain you won't agree with a few items she has.

Is Mark Sloan Eden's father?? Does Derek know Mark? I mean, in this story?

I am glad that Derek offered her his friendship and lets him in. It's a good start.

Looking forward for more :flowers:

Eden-I can't believe i'm gonna get to go on camp.

Derek-Sounds good lets go.

The following week passes really quickly and before Meredith knows it she is standing outside the school waving Eden off to camp.
She waits until the coach is out of view and climbs into her car and drives to the hospital.

Derek-Hey did she get off ok.

Yup so Mark Sloan is Eden's Daddy and Meredith's husband. Now, does Derek know Mark in this fic? Things are getting intense in here and I look forward for Meredith's reaction to Mark's appearance.

I must say, Eden thinks very maturely and reasonable for her age; I mean what kid would tell its mom to go be happy with a man that's not its father. Also funny how she calls Meredith 'mom' while she still goes with 'daddy' for a father... I think that really shows how attached she is to Mark.

Update soon :flowers:

Richard-I'm not giving you Meredith'd address Mark.

Mark-Dammit she's my wife i have a right.

Richard-From what i gather you lost that right when you cheated on her.

Mark-Just give me the address Richard.

Richard-No now please leave my hospital.

Mark-Do you know who i am.

Richard-Only too well.

Mark-Your making an unbelievable mistake.

Richard-How is that.

Mark-The people i can bring to your hospital the intrest.

Richard-Is something i do not want now please leave before i call security.

Mark storms out of the office bumping into Izzie in the hall.

Izzie-Dr Sloan are you ok.

Mark-Dr.

Izzie-Steven's Izzie Steven's.

Mark-Dr Steven's maybe you can help me.

Meanwhile back at Meredith's She and Derek have moved out all of Eden's furniture and are currently trying to paint the walls.

Derek-Eden's very bright for her age.

Meredith-Independant more like i just i bought her up to not rely on anyone other than herself.

Derek-Oh.

Meredith-I know thats bad but i had no-one growing up.

Derek-I kinda understand.

Meredith-She is my whole life you know but i fear sometime even i won't be there when she needs me.

Derek-She adores you.

Meredith-Yeah but she is besotted with her father worships the ground he walks on.

Derek-Yeah i kinda guessed that with how she calls you Mom and still calls him Daddy.

Meredith-I know she stopped calling me Mommy when she was about 6 she is very mind set knows what she wants the thing is i think she knows that Me and Mark are over.

Derek-At 8yrs old i'd be devestated if my parents weren't together.

Meredith-I thought she would be but she just she only said she wants me to be happy and she knows being with Mark i wasn't happy.

Derek-She's an amazing kid Meredith.

Meredith-Thank-you did you not want kids.

Derek-Oh definetly one day hopefully but with the marriage ending like it did.

Meredith-It was a bad divorce.

Derek-It got messy put it that way.

Meredith-How did it end your marriage.

Derek-She cheated on me with my best friend my brother it broke me and tore my family apart so i know exactly what your feeling.

Meredith-I'm sorry.

Derek-Yeah me too sometimes she was my highschool sweetheart we married after graduation he was my best man.
They swore it was just once but i found that hard to believe.

Meredith-You shouldn't ever believe that it was only ever once with Mark.

Derek-Anyway lets change the subject before we both end up getting severly depressed.

Derek starts to paint the wall and silence falls between them.

Meredith-Derek i just.

Derek-Just what.

Meredith-Being around you i feel all girly and stupid no-one not even Mark has ever made me feel that way.

Derek-I wish i met you before.

Meredith-Before Mark i can't say that because however much i hate him he gave me my beautiful girl.

Derek-He doesn't deserve you.

Meredith-Derek i'm sorry.

Derek-Don't be it's not your fault just bad timing i need to go and clean these brushes.

Derek walks out of the bedroom and Meredith follows him stopping him in the kitchen and kissing him taking him by surprise.

Derek-Meredith.

Meredith-I know i said just friends but i just i wanted to kiss you.

Derek-I'm glad you did.

Derek kisses Meredith back as the doorbell goes.

Meredith-Who could that be.

Derek-Ignore it they might go away.

Meredith-No i'll be right back.

Meredith walks into the hallway and her heart sinks to see Mark stood on the porch she drops the paint brushes in her hand.

Derek-Meredith you ok.

Mark opens the door.

Mark-Hey baby.

Derek-Sloan what the hell are you doing here.

Mark-I could ask you the same thing.

Derek-What.

Meredith-You know Mark.

Mark-How do you know Derek is he the bloke you met.

Meredith-Derek please tell me he isn't.

Derek-Meredith Mark is my ex best friend my ex brother who slept with my wife.

Meredith-Mark you need to leave.

Mark-Like hell i do Sheperd keep your hands of my wife.

Meredith-Soon to be divorced wife.

Derek-Meredith.

Mark-Get the hell away from her.

Meredith-Mark you need to leave i don't want you in my house.

Mark-I'm not going anywhere i want to see my daughter.

Meredith-Eden isn't here.

Mark-Where the hell is she.

Meredith-Camp i told you to get out of my house.

Mark-No we need to talk Sheperd get lost yeah.

Meredith-No i asked you to leave Derek is staying right here.
