Grey's Anatomy
Chapter: Meet the Grey's.
Disclaimer: I, unfortunately, do not own Grey's Anatomy. If I did, I would probably make Meredith a bit more open with Derek. I wish those two would stop with all the S and M thing and really get together.
Summery: Meredith had a one night stand with Derek without knowing who he was. After returning home, Meredith found out she was pregnant. While abortion and/or adoption were probably the best two options for her, she decided to keep the baby. She was determined to be a better mother to her child.

17 year old Meredith Grey took her fake ID from the club bouncer and danced to the music as she made her way in. She was on vacation, and was determined to make it the best Christmas break ever. She went over to the bar and ordered a beer.
21 year old Derek Shepherd sat at the bar drinking his beer when a girl, who he thought was more than likely underage, come up next to him and ordered a beer.
"A little young to be here, don't you think?" He asked.
"Not according to the state of Massachusetts." Meredith said simply.
"Ah, fake ID" Derek said taking a swig of his beer.
The two sat at the bar all night and drank. At around 3 a.m. Derek and Meredith ended up at Derek's apartment. The next morning Derek woke up with a killer headache. He looked in the bed next to him and found a note. There was only one word written on the post-it. It read: Thanks. And nothing else.

Meredith was awake and had already showered when she walked into her daughter's room. There were still some unpacked boxes in the corner of the room. Riley was fast asleep in her bed. Meredith went over to the edge of the bed and sat down. She shook her daughter lightly in order to wake her up.
"Riley, C'mon sweetie, time to get up. We have to get you to school." Meredith said.
"Can't we just stay home like we did all week?" Riley asked.
"No, you have to go to school, and I have to get to work." Meredith said.
Riley pulled the covers over her head and turned over Meredith laughed, and tried to pull back the covers again. She started tickling her to get Riley to let go of the sheets. She pulled the from over Riley's head.
"You need to get dressed." Meredith said with her forehead pressed against Riley's
"Okay." Riley sighed.
Meredith left the room letting her daughter get dressed. She went downstairs and started making come coffee and pulled a box of Riley's favorite cereal and a bowl and spoon. Riley came into the kitchen and sat at the table. Meredith poured her a bowl of cereal and poured milk into it.
"Okay, now you remember what to do after school?" Meredith asked sitting next to her daughter with her steamy mug of coffee.
"Uh-huh, I get on my bus. It's supposed to drop me off at the hospital and not supposed to leave until I get inside. Then I go to Uncle Richie's office." Riley said.
"Right." Meredith said. She pulled out one of those butterfly phones that only had 5 numbers in it. "I want you to put this in your backpack. It has to stay off until you get to the hospital. When you get to the hospital I want you to call me. It will send a special message to my beeper. I don't want you to talk to anyone, just come straight to Uncle Richie's office."
"Okay." Riley nodded.
"Good, now finish up. You still have to brush your teeth and we have to meet the principle." Meredith said.
After finishing her cereal and brushing her teeth, Riley and Meredith got into Meredith's Jeep and headed over to Riley's elementary school. Meredith got out of the driver's seat and opened the back door.
"Ready, kiddo?" Meredith asked as Riley hopped out of the back seat.
"Do I have to?" Riley asked.
Meredith knelt down in front Riley. "It's okay to be nervous, but you don't have to be. Everyone is going to love you, I already do."
"You have to say that you're my mommy." Riley said.
"I don't have to say anything. I just said the truth." Meredith said.
"Okay, let's go." Riley said.
"That's my girl." Meredith said giving Riley a big hug.
After dropping Riley off at her class she headed off to the hospital.
Hours later Meredith made her way to the chief's office. Riley was sitting on the couch outside of Chief Webber's office coloring when she came by.
"Hi sweetie, are you having fun coloring?" Meredith asked crouching next to the coffee table.
"Yup. Agnes gave me a new coloring book." Riley said speaking about Webber's secretary.
"Alright, well it's time to go. It is way passed your bedtime." Meredith said.
"Okay." Riley said. She began putting her new coloring book and crayons in her backpack.
Once they got to the car Meredith helped riley buckle her seatbelt, then got in the driver's seat and started the car. When the two were about half way home, Meredith looked in the rearview mirror at Riley. Riley was fast asleep with her head resting on the seatbelt. Meredith knew she had to get a more stable routine for Riley, but she hadn't the time to figure it out yet. On top of that, she couldn't handle the hassle of such a big house on her own. Riley needed a Babysitter, and they needed roommates fro the house.
Before she knew it they were at the house. Meredith pulled into the driveway, and turned off the ignition. She got out and, without waking Riley, Picked her slumbering daughter up. She grabbed Riley's backpack and locked and shut the door. Once inside Meredith took Riley upstairs and woke her to get a quick bath before bed.
"Come one sweetie, a quick bath, then we both go to bed." Meredith said as Riley sleepily followed her into the bathroom.
Once the bath was done Riley changed into her pajamas. Meredith came in wearing her own pajamas. Before Meredith could pull the covers back on the bed Riley stopped her.
"Mommy, can I sleep with you?" Riley asked.
"Sure, let's go." Meredith said with a smile.
Meredith and Riley snuggled in bed and went to sleep.
AN: So, this is my first GA fic. I feel like part of this chapter was a little weird and doesn't connect with the rest of the story. So please read and review. Tell me what you think. I want to make Riley 16 as it says at the top. It'll come out more as the story progresses.
