Hey guys,

I wrote this for all Addek's fan especially for Antoni, you're really great and I'm glad you're my beta.

This story isn't beta readed, but I hope I didn't make too many faults.

I hope you enjoy this and had a nice Christmas.

Love and best wishes Mariella

Come what may

He saw her entering the hospital. He sighed. He couldn't get her out of his head. He missed her the last months. When she was gone he realized that Meredith was nothing like her. That Meredith was just the Anti-Addison. He smiled at her when she came up to him.

"Derek, hi", she smiled at him. She missed him so much, but she couldn't tell him that. He looked good as always.

"Addison, good to see you, you look good, L.A. suits you."
"Yeah, it does, I love the beach, it's much more chilled than here and I love surfing."

Derek looked at her skeptically, "You go surfing?"
"Yes … no … not really, but I like watching the sexy surfers go surfing."
Derek laughed, "I could have expected this."
"Yeah, you could. How are you and Meredith doing?"

"You know, we … we aren't together anymore. After the almost-wedding we didn't get back together."

"Oh, I thought. I'm really sorry Derek."

"No, don't be. She wasn't what I wanted, I only noticed that a little too late."

Addison looked at him, but before she could say anything, her pager went off, "Sorry Derek, my case … I need to go. See you later?"

"I'll wait for you."
"Thanks", she smiled at him her bright smile, "I missed you in L.A."

She was gone before Derek could say anything. Derek smiled like a fool, she missed him, how much these little words meant to him.

Mark just came around the corner, "Hey Der, heard Addie just arrived."
Derek didn't answer; he just starred at the spot Addison had stood a few minutes ago.

"Derek, is everything ok with you?"

Derek looked at Mark, "Sorry, what did you say?"

Mark looked closely at Derek, "You're still in love with her, aren't you?"

"Yeah."
"Then don't let her go without telling her."

"Mark, I don't …"
"You're Addison-and-Derek. You're supposed to be together. Some things never change."

Derek looked at Mark and remembered one of these special mornings in mad school with Addie.

XXXXXXXXXX

Addison was sitting at her piano and playing some melody when Derek entered the room. They just moved in together.

"What are you playing gorgeous?"

"Don't know, it just came into my sense. You want to hear it?"

"Sure."

Addison started playing and by the way she was playing Derek could tell that she put all her emotion in the playing. He got inspired and started singing.

Never knew, I could feel like this,
Like I've never seen the sky before
Want to vanish inside your kiss
Everyday I love you more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sing
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change, winter to spring
But I love you, until the end of time

Come what may, come what may
I will love you, until my dying day
Addison smiled at him and joined him by singing
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you

… and they ended together, they didn't know why they were so sure what the other one wanted to sing, but it was perfect.
And there's no mountain too high, no river too wide
Sing out this song and I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather,
And stars may collide

But I love you (I love you)
Til the end of time

Come what may, Come what may
I will love you, until my dying day
Oh come what may, come what may
I will love you

Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Come what may, Come what may
I will love you
Until my dying day

They looked at each other, "I will love you until my dying day", Derek whispered into her ear.

"I will love you until my dying day too."

XXXXXXXXXX

Derek sat at the gallery and watched Addison operate. He always loved to watch her operate and he noticed that he missed that too.

After she was finished he waited for her with a juju.

"Great work."

"Thanks, I saw that you watched me."
"Yeah, I did this a lot of times back in New York."
"Yeah, but this is a long time ago."
"Addie … you didn't give me the chance earlier, what I wanted to say about Meredith …"
"Derek you don't have to …"
"But I want to. Addie, listen. Do you remember this morning in med school, when we sang …"
"Derek that …"
"Shh, Addie, I'm sorry for Meredith, I'm sorry I ignored you, I'm sorry I didn't want to forgive you, I missed you so much when you weren't here … I love you, I love you so much that it hurts when you're not here. I want to be with you, where ever you want to be, we can stay here, I can move to L.A. or we can go back to New York. I just don't want to be a single day without you. I meant it, I meant every word I sang, I will love you until my dying day, Addison and I'm sorry I let you doubt that."

"Derek, I … I missed you too and …", Addison had tears in her eyes, "Are you sure about that? Because I couldn't take it if you …"

"I won't. I love you Addison … come what may."
"I love you too Derek … come what may."

XXXXXXXXXX

A few month later Addison and Derek were sitting at the deck of their house in L.A.

Derek smiled at her. They remarried a few weeks ago when they were in Bali.

Addison just came up to him and sat next to him, "Mrs Shepherd, you look too gorgeous to be true."

Addison smiled at him, "Derek, I have to tell you something."

Derek looked at her, "Is everything ok?"

"Yeah, I'm .. pregnant Derek. Naomi made the test this morning. I'm third week pregnant."
Derek looked at her in shock for a moment, before he lifted her up and swirled her around, "You make me the most happy man on earth Addison Adrienne Forbes Montgomery-Shepherd."

Addison smiled at him and he whispered into her ear, "Come what may, I will love you until my dying day."

Addison looked at him and whispered softly, "Come what may, I will love you until my dying day."
