Okay so this is just an idea I had after Sam told Addison that he had went to her house one night for help with the speech for Maya's wedding. Not really sure if I should make this a one-shot or continue it I guess I'll let you be he judge of that.

Addison laid in bed thinking about the conversation that had taken place just over an hour ago with Pete.

"I'm sorry Pete I thought I could do this but I can't. I can't be with you knowing how in love I am with Sam and you with Violet."

"Addison, I'm so happy to hear you say that. I mean this past week it's been great and I've loved talking to you but.."

"But I'm not Violet."

"yeah…"

"It's okay I know what you mean."

"So there isn't any hard feelings?"

"No; not at all."

"Addison?"

"Yeah?"

"You need to tell him; You need to tell Sam that your in love with him. I would give anything to know that if I told Violet I loved her that she would say the same. But that's not how it is. I know you don't want to hurt Naomi but if you don't tell him your going to regret it forever. So go. Go tell him how you feel."

"Thank you Pete."

"No problem."

Addison's thoughts were broken when she heard a knock at the door she was hesitant at first but then hopped up out of bed and went to answer the door. Addison was shocked to see Sam standing there. She knew that he had still been mad at her for the conversation that had taken place between them. Not so much as that he was mad at her more of the fact that things had been awkward between them. How could they not be he had been completely opened and honest with her and she tore him down. She didn't know why Sam was there but thinking about what Pete had told her she wasn't going to waste anytime.

"Sam Hi!"

Sam smiled at the enthusiasm Addison had.

"Addie; I hope you don't mind I sort of need some help with my speech for Maya's wedding."

Addison looked at him wondering whether or not she should tell him after she helped him or now. She wanted so badly for him to know how she felt about him. That he wasn't the only one who had feelings for the other. But she knew he also needed her right now so she decided to wait just until they were done with the speech.

"Sure, come on in."

"Thank you so much you have no idea how much of a help your going to be to me."

"Sam don't even worry about it, I'm happy to help."

Addison and Sam walked back towards the living room and sat down on the couch.

"You know it's just that everybody expects me to be happy and write this amazing heartfelt and touching speech that will bring tears to everybody's eyes but I'm not happy. How can I be? I mean my fifteen year old daughter is pregnant and getting married."

"I know this has to be hard on you Sam; especially with Naomi not being there for you and Maya."

Sam smiled thinking about the memories he had of Maya when she was a little girl.

"You know there was a time when Maya wanted to marry me?"

"Really?"

"She said I was her anyway buddy and that the best person to get married to is your anyway buddy."

Addison laughed thinking about little Maya talking to Sam like this it was cute.

"What's an anyway buddy?"

"Well its basically somebody who will always be there for you and will always love you no matter what. They love you anyway."

"That's the cutest thing I ever heard."

"Yeah its hard facing that she's growing up faster then she should have to because of one mistake she made."

"But you and Na taught her better then to abandon her baby; you taught her to take responsibility for her mistakes. I know this sounds bad but in some way you should feel proud that she chose to face her mistake and the consequences that came along with it."

"I guess you right but I just wish that I had taught her well enough not to make such a mistake to begin with."

Addison sat listening to the way Sam spoke about Maya he had so many beautiful things to say about her; Addison was confused as to why he was having trouble to begin with.

"Sam; wait what about anyway buddy."

"What?"

"You know for your speech. What if you talk about how much Maya has grown up, and how you hope she found her anyway buddy."

"Addison that's a great idea! How did you think of something like that?"

"Well Maya may have been young when she said it but I don't know she makes a lot of sense."

"What do you mean?"

"I mean she was right in saying that the best person you could possible choose to marry is your anyway buddy. Who better to marry then the person who will always support you and be there for you when you need them. Who will be your shoulder to cry on and your war to vent to."

"Addison that's beautiful."

Addison smiled at Sam thinking about the words she was choosing to speak next.

"Sam… I … can we talk?"

"Is everything okay?"

"You know the other night when you came by and you…"

"Addison we don't have to have this conversation I understand that you don't want to hurt Naomi I was wrong to be mad at you."

"No Sam you don't understand."

Sam looked at Addison with a confused look he wasn't sure what Addison was going to say but he was hopeful. Maybe she would give them a chance. Addison scooted closer to Sam bringing her hands to the side of his face and kissing him softly on his lips. After doing so she brought her lips to his ear and whispered,

"Take me to my room."

Review please ;)
