The car skidded to a stop, and Meredith sat there for a moment, stunned, blinking.  A myriad of spider web patterns lanced out across the windshield.  Her airbag was out, slowly deflating in her lap with a hiss.  She swallowed

Okay hold on. There must be a mistake. Well, two. You didn't just have them get into a car accident and hurt Derek. ANd you definitely didn't just end it there. I mean, there's an update coming like..noww..rightt? Please!
AHH. Please let him be okay. What am I saying. Of course he's gonna be okay. It's Derek. And it's Meredith. It's Derek&Meredith and being as you are such a huge fan, he will be finee.
Apart from Derek being hurt, this chapter was amazing. How you portrayed Meredith and her trying to keep herself calm..it was perfectt.
And of course, your writing is amazing, as alwaysss.

It's gonna be interesting to see how Mer deals with the idea of losing Derek; see things through his eyes in a waay. Can't wait to see it all fan outt!

Thanks :) I did just have them get into a car accident, and yep, I completely maimed Derek. I'm sorry. It had to be done since it's the entire premise of my story idea :( I hope you continue to enjoy the writing. And you needn't worry. I fix everything I break!

Thanks so much :) This is the scene I was trying to build to from the beginning. It's the first one I wrote. I'm really pleased with it, despite the horrific roller coaster it is.

I'm sitting here basically unable to function - utterly amazing all over again and you better update soon! It's going to take a lot of SOSG re-reading to make me feel better now!

Thanks so much :) /Comfort.

Okay, obviously I drank more at dinner than i thought...

Because i appear to be hallucinating. First no mile high club then a seriously injured McDreamy...

No... I'm definitely not reading this!

On the plus side it must be going to have two definite consequences, Derek's family will get to see that Meredith really loves Derek, which will probably smooth things out between them, and I suspect that nearly losing Derek will clarify Meredith's feelings for Derek even further because a lot of the time in Grey's verse I think Derek takes the relationship a lot more seriously than Meredith does.

Beautiful writing as always, but... update quickly please

Thank you! And, yup, things went from great to awful in the space it takes to snap a rubberband. I'm just glad I still managed to surprise everyone :)

wow! that was an incrdible chapter!! Talk about calm before the storm in the other chapter, I really wasn't expecting anything going wrong so soon, but I suppose you've planned that way on purpose. :D . I loved the way this chapter begins, right after the accident for the added shock value.

Amazing... just.. yeah, amazing. I can't wait for more!!!

Thanks :) I was wondering if I was moving too abruptly into the meat of the story, and just decided to go for it. I'm amazed that I still managed to catch everyone flat-footed, despite the fact that I advertised that there would be an accident. You have no idea how much that flatters me :)
