oh, wow. that was a lovely ending...sorry i had to play dumb and ask if this was the last chapter coz i know that this story is done in 3 parts...well, i was kinda hoping there'd be more. :)

thanks for sharing this story. the trailer is not derek...but meredith's derek... :D

i love the trailer!! what it does to derek and meredith, how it gives derek perspective on things. i wish he'd tell her more about ny, just a hint on why he uprooted to seattle.

thanks for sharing with us what could have happened in the trailer..i like their trailer moments in the show, which i hope shonda had shown more :)

i'm on to my next chapter..is that the last? :(

this is so good!! 1st chapter and i'm a happy merder sucker satisfied!! i like how derek was apprehensive initially but meredith threw that away. sex on the kitchen table, well almost sex on th kitchen table..i wish they'd do it in every part of his trailer really...and all over his land, marking merder territory..would that be asking too much?? rofl!

thanks for sharing this!

That was the most perfect first chapter I have ever read. You have this amazing ability to get into your characters thoughts in all of your fics, and this is no exception.

Derek taking Meredith to his trailer was one of the best scenes ever, in my opinion and I am so glad you decided to write something from that point. I see it's only three chapters but I'm sure every sentence of the two I have yet to read will be as great as this.

Those last two chapters were amazing...never stop writing. This story cannot be over.
I have never felt the need to hit the review button on any of the stories I have ever read. This story was so well written; the narrative was perfection. Intelligent and aesthetic, the analogies were simply brilliant.

Ah...perfection. I absolutely love your writing. I hope you write something else soon, preferably MerDer related. But really, I kinda think you could make the dictionary sound interesting. I am very impressed. Thanks for such an entertaining piece.

That was a lovely ending to a great story :)

I'm so sorry I didn't get around to reviewing chapter two, but I do love this, the whole thing. As ever, it is fantastic.

Great ending! Very sweet and genuine. :)

How beautiful:) I hope it happened just this way.

Amazing conclusion! You're such a brilliant writer.

Thank you so much for this.

aww love this story. So cute storytelling. Wish there were more chapters :)
can't wait for your next fic!

That was a beautiful chapter. I love your detailed writing style so much! It's a joy to read and I can't wait for the final chapter. :)

What a pleasure to have you writing again, lovely and descriptive. I could see/feel the this beautiful lake. And, they seem so in character, this time gentle teasing. And you also write Mer with some sensitivity, by that I mean that she wonders, she knows something is odd/wrong/different about this situation - she knows it. Too often, she is written as very one dimensional and defined (in my opinion) only by her mannerisms and her sexuality. As well, you have written her as (understandably) not seeing herself has capable of helping anyone.

So, I feel like I'm gushing here but the metaphor of the tree with the sexual teasing included was awesome. And, Derek seeing her as his "roots". In truth, GA has left me w/ real doubts about the strength of his feelings for her or perhaps his ability to consistently act on them. In any case, you managed a wonderful brief story of a beginning.
