'Grey's Anatomy' season 13 premiere spoilers: Meredith will never forget Derek even if she falls for Nathan

(Facebook/Grey's Anatomy)Will Meredith have a chance to be happy in "Grey's Anatomy" season 4 now that there's a possibility for a romance between her and Nathan?

As the season 13 of "Grey's Anatomy" draws nearer, fans who have followed the series for its past 12 seasons can only wonder what the series might have in store for them in the upcoming season of the said series. For one thing, fans are eager to know if Dr. Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) will finally usher in happiness back in her life now that she has an opportunity to be so, thanks to Dr. Nathan Riggs (Martin Henderson).

Avid viewers of the show want to see Meredith happy again after she was subjected and tied to grief over the tragic passing of Dr. Derek Shepherd (Patrick Dempsey) with the help of Nathan. Although it wasn't at the latter part of "Grey's Anatomy" season 12 when Meredith and Nathan improved their dealings, as Nathan's feud with Dr. Owen Hunt (Kevin McKidd) hindered a harmonious personal relationship between them, things look promising for the two. According to reports, with everything water under the bridge between the two now, it seems that the two are heading to something that will transcend friendship and become more romantic.

While there is a possibility for Meredith to get into a fling, or even more than that, with Nathan, this doesn't mean though that Derek will be replaced and forgotten. In her interview with TV Line last month, Pompeo revealed that her character will always reserve a special place in her heart for her deceased love, Derek.

"Sure, you may have other relationships, and you may even marry again. But everybody has that one great love," Pompeo said in her interview with TV Line last month.

Apart from looking forward to a possible romance between Meredith and Nathan, fans are also looking forward to the love triangle waiting to happen in the series as Meredith's half-sister, Dr. Maggie Pierce (Kelly McCreary), has also set her eyes on Nathan.

Will Meredith fight for her chance to be happy once more? Will she give way to her half-sister? Who will Nathan choose between Meredith and Maggie? Find out when "Grey's Anatomy" returns to ABC for its season 13 run this Sept. 22.
