Lu78 - I think this chapter is a bit happier so i hope i don't make you cry lol. Enjoy it!

Tna - Thank you and i totally agree with you there. I would have made him work a lot harder if i had the confidence to write a longer fic. Anyway i hope you like it.

Suz - I don't mind that you weren't first, my fault for posting when you were out :) I agree i think Addison does love Derek no matter what, and she can only resist him for so long hehe.

Mony19 - I hope you like this, thank you for reviewing the last chapter.

A/N - Right so here is the final chapter. I am sorry if you feel this story is too short, before you get mad i will try to explain myself. This was my first Addek fic and i really didn't feel confident enough to get in to a longer story. So i apologize if you are unhappy with how this plays out. That said i am quite happy with how it turned out so you can expect more from me in the future.

Just a warning that this is rated M for a reason, so don't read if you don't like it. And as always thank you to Suz, your help with this chapter was invaluable.


There's a voice shouting inside my head
There's a space on your side of the bed
There's a hope every time there's a sound
There's a silence that's playing too loud

I don't know where to start
Or how to begin
But I know I love you still.

Take That, I'd Wait for Life

Chapter 3 – I'd Wait For life

Addison hated staying alone at the hotel. She hated sleeping alone in a king-size bed, it served as a reminder of all the nights Derek had failed to come home from the hospital, it made her feel insecure and most of all lonely.

She threw herself in to her work at the hospital in the hope that she could forget her personal problems. All that this achieved was to make her feel cut off from the rest of the world. Derek moped around the hospital with his tail between his legs, and she couldn't help but feel a stab of guilt whenever she saw him.

To make matters worse the other interns had of course discovered that Meredith and Derek had once again been split up. And of course it was all Satan's fault. She maintained a professional relationship with them all but their immature remarks were wearing her down.

After the week from hell Addison entered her hotel room thankful only that it was over. She kicked off her heels and went straight over to the mini bar to pour herself a drink. The alcohol burned her throat as it went down but she welcomed the sensation.

The knock at the door surprised her and she tried to remember if she was expecting anyone. She opened the door and froze when she saw Derek on the other side.

"Can I come in?" He asked softly, giving her a half smile.

Addison debated saying no but in the end she just couldn't bring herself to say it. She opened the door a bit wider and he let out a sigh of relief before entering the room.

"For a minute there I thought you were going to say no."

"For a minute there I was going to say no. What are you doing here Derek?"

"Addison, we can't go on like this. I refuse to accept that this is the end for us…"

"I've told you I can't do this again Derek. I'm not strong enough…I can't put myself out there again only to have it thrown back in my face." Addison replied heatedly.

"It won't be thrown back in your face. I was an idiot…I see that now. I ignored you, I was indifferent towards you and I didn't put you first. But that won't happen again, you're my soulmate, I can't live without you. Please Addison…give us one last chance…I love you"

Derek moved towards her and cupped her face between his palms gently. She locked her gaze with his and couldn't help but lean in to his touch. He leaned in closer towards her mouth so that his lips were millimetres from hers. When she didn't pull away he closed the last remaining space between them.

Addison parted her lips under his and his tongue slipped in to her mouth immediately. She reached her arms around his neck and pressed her body closer to his. Derek grabbed her hips and manoeuvred her backwards towards the bed.

Addison felt her legs hit the back of the bed and fell backwards pulling Derek down on top of her. Addison's heart was beating fast and her head was spinning. She could feel Derek's hands moving on autopilot hitting all the right spots. She didn't know why she let him do this. She didn't know how they ended up on the bed with her lying under him, all she knew that she needed this, and that she wanted this…she wanted Derek…and then there was no room for any more thoughts.

He squeezed her breasts through the fabric of her top, then slid his hands down to the hem and slipped them underneath. He pulled his lips from hers and kissed his way down her neck and collarbone His hands pulled her top up and over her head then immediately went back to her breasts.

Addison moaned at the feel of his cool hands on her heated flesh. She ran her hands through his hair as his head moved lower. Derek dipped his tongue in to the valley between her breasts briefly making her squirm before continuing his journey downwards.

He reached the top of her skirt and went straight for the zipper on the side. She lifted her hips off the bed so he could slide it down her legs and throw it on the floor. Addison groaned when his fingers slid up her inner thighs, stroking everywhere but where she needed them to. He pulled the panties down her legs agonizingly slowly, leaving her laying there in just her bra.

Addison was past the point of caring about how submissive she was being. She didn't care that she was almost naked while Derek was fully dressed, she didn't care about anything other making sure he didn't stop what he was doing.

Derek had no intention of stopping as he moved his head to between her thighs. At the first touch of his tongue on her centre Addison bucked her hips and clamped her legs around his head. Derek pushed her hips back in to the bed to hold her steady as he continued to pleasure her. Her hands pulled on his hair gently as she moaned and held his head in place.

Derek had her on the edge of an orgasm in no time at all. He kept her teetering on the edge until he thought she couldn't take it anymore. He pressed his tongue on to her clit, watching her face in pure awe as she cried out loudly in release.

Addison was panting hard when Derek moved back up her body to capture her lips with his own. She could taste herself on his lips, as she came back down from her high it dawned on her that he was still fully clothed. She used her body weight to flip them over and set to work unbuttoning his shirt, crashing her lips back down on to his.

Addison pushed the shirt off his shoulders and ran her hands over his chest. She teased his nipples and he tried to stifle a groan as she leaned down to kiss him. Addison just gave a mischievous grin and reached her hands down to unbutton his pants.

Derek ran his hands through her hair as she slid his pants and boxer shorts down his legs, revealing his hard member. Derek waited until she moved back up his body before rolling them over so he was back on top. He kissed her passionately and reached down to slip a finger inside of her.

Addison could feel his erection pressed against her thigh and involuntarily thrust her hips against his leg. She sighed when he pushed a second finger in to her but she still wanted more. Derek thrust his fingers a few times to make sure she was ready then positioned himself at her entrance. He could feel her warmth and just the thought of being inside of her made him moan. He entered her, thrusting in to her slowly and holding still so she could adjust.

Addison felt complete when she felt him enter her and wrapped her legs around his waist to pull him deeper. He started thrusting slowly but soon picked up the pace.

Derek pressed his thumb to her clit as his thrusts became more frantic, capturing her groan in his mouth as he kissed her. He felt himself getting closer and he was determined to bring her with him.

Addison moaned his name and thrust her hips wildly as she neared her release. She felt her muscles start to clench around him and cried out as her orgasm took her over. She felt Derek shudder and release himself inside of her. Addison watched as a bead of sweat rolled down his face and dropped on to his shoulder.

He rolled off her and kissed her slowly. Addison felt her eyes drooping tiredly as she smiled at him.

"Mmmm…Derek?"

"Yeah…?"

"You better be here when I wake up in the morning" Addison said as she snuggled closer to him.

"I will I promise…and the morning after that…and next week, next month…I'll still be here. Does this mean that you're giving us another chance?"

"Yeah I guess it does. Try not to screw it up this time, ok?"

"I'll try my best." Derek grinned at her and kissed her softly on the forehead. "Go to sleep Addie, I love you"

"Love you too…" Addison whispered.

She wrapped her arm over his chest and closed her eyes.

The End
