I can't write. Prompt me.

Guidelines:

Fandoms: Lost, Grey's Anatomy. BSG, Gossip Girl, Oz, anything else that you know I watch. Any pairings go.
Prompt me with a fandom, character/pairing, and either a prompt word, song lyric, or picture.

I'm trying to get back in the habit of doing more than one fandom, so, really, you're helping me here.

There isn’t any getting down on one knee. To his credit, Derek knows better than that by now. He knows she would’ve run, said no.

Instead, it’s, “you want to get married?” in such a conversational tone that if she wasn’t paying attention she probably would’ve missed it.

Meredith waits to hear him call it a Freudian slip. He never does, he isn’t even really looking at her, in the middle of cooking breakfast. “What?” comes out stammered and she doesn’t know whether to smile or frown. She settles for this look on her face that she knows can’t be all that warm or pleasant. She’s having a hard time caring.

“I just figured I’d ask.” He actually shrugs when he says it. Shrugs. This is Derek she’s talking about. It just doesn’t make sense.

“Aren’t you...isn’t this supposed to go differently?” She finally asks.

He smiles, like it’s a joke he’s in on that no one else is. “How would you like me to do it?”

“I don’t…” she has no answer for him. It’s not that she’s never thought about it, she has, but she always figured it as something she would say yes to for him. Because it would be good for them. “Are you serious?”

“Should I be?”

“Stop answering my questions with questions?”

Derek comes around from behind the stove, presses her into the counter, inches from her. That smile never leaves his face, and damn if it isn’t contagious. “Marry me?”

“Fine.” She replies, like she’s giving in, like it’s forced, but really, this is why she’s saying yes. This, all of it, proposing on a random Thursday over breakfast, with absolutely no precursor. He gets her. So she’s saying yes. “If it’s what you want,” and she’s got this stupid grin on her face and she just wishes he would kiss her, just so that she could feel like less of an idiot.

“You’re sure now? No second thoughts?” He’s purposely stalling; she hates him a little bit for it.

“I’m sure.” Meredith’s laughing as he kisses her, long and deliberate and somehow everything feels so right.

This was so sweet! Very MerDer--no frills or anything, just something simple. Loved it! :)

You know, I just don't see Meredith as the type who does frills. She isn't the type who probably dreamed wedding dresses when she was younger -- at least not in the canon that resides in my head.

I'm glad you liked this! Thanks for reading and reviewing!

I do know how much you value me "hugs". They don't need the frills for this, there relationship has never been about them. This just seems like them. No, I don't think Mer ever really sat around and dreamnt about what her dream wedding would be like.

For someone that doesn't do Mer/Der very much you'd never know.

Some people may want the lavish dinner under the stars, this simple gesture speaks volumes!
