She was packing her boxes. Richard Webber called her for a consult in the same hospital were her husband – ex husband, she corrected herself, was working too. Her eyes caught an old photographic album. She didn't remember it. Addison opened it and smiled a watery smile. 12 years had passed from the last photo that they took together. It was taken before he left for the Army. He wanted so badly to be a pilot. To be a hero. An year after, he went missing. His brother told her. 12 years without any news. He was the only friend that she had. He was her best friend. And probably the only one that she really loved.

They had only 2 years of difference between them. She was the older one. A red haired little girl, stubborn and with the gift to always drive him crazy.

He was a mouthful kid, and her bestfriend. They were neighbors. Alex's father was a drunkard, junkie man, always beating Alex's mother. Alex started to take care of his parents and little brother and sister when he was 7. Addison was the second daughter of a very rich and important doctor, the Captain. She was rich, he wasn't. She wanted to become a doctor, he wanted to become a pilot.

They always fought a lot but they couldn't live without each other.

"Brum….whoam. Hey Adds, wanna fly with me?"

"Alex, come down from up there. You can get hurt."

"Whatever, you can take care of me. Whoam." Alex was on a tree, pretending to fly.

"Alex." Addison whined, afraid that her 10 years old best friend could get hurt.

"You're a pain in the ass…" Alex growled coming down from the tree.

"You're an ass, Karev." She fired back.

"Fearful."

"Idiot." She turned her back at him. "Not that if you hit your head on the ground you're going to feel something stubborn as you are."

"Dude, did a snake bite you?" he smirked cocky and then grabbed her hand with his. "Do you wanna help me with my homework?" Alex asked her squizzing her hand. "Please?"

"C'mon, ace." She grinned at him and he grinned back.

"Y'know, Monty, you can join the Army too. As a doctor." Alex smirked laying on the grass of Addison's garden. "And I can teach you how to fly. It's cool." He faced her grinning. At the end Addison did his homework while he was watching the tv.

He was 10, she was 12 years old.

Alex was hiding in Addison's room crying quietly. He wasn't at school that day. He stayed home 'cause his father was drunk since last night and he had to take care of everything. Alex was making a sandwich for his little sister when he heard her mother and father fought. He knew very well what's going to happen and he took his sister by the hand and the two of them left the house. His sister was laying on Addison's bed and he was on the floor, crying. Some minutes after, Addison entered her room. She noticed the two Karev and without say a word, she sat near Alex, taking his hands in hers. He cried quietly on her shoulder, not ashamed.

"My bro is camping. Wanna sleep in his room?" she whispered in his ear. He simply nodded.

"You're my bestfriend." Alex whispered back.

He was 12 years old. She was 14.

"I hate him. Damn I hate him." Addison shouted. She was running from her dad's office after have understood that she was some kind of alibi for his random fuck. She didn't want to go home. She couldn't face her mother.

"Alex." She shouted under his window. "Karev. Get your ass over here."

"Hey woman." He made his appearance in a perfect Romeo&Juliet's way. "Say please." He grinned, but then his grin faded when he saw the tears and her face angry.

"What happened?" he jumped from the window, not caring that he could have broke his head.

"Nothing."

"Liar. What happened?"

"The Captain."

"What the fuck he did to you?" he hissed worried. "Talk, Montgomery."

"I…saw him cheating on my mother." She swallowed but she looked at him with that fierce that he always envied her.

"Come here." She grabbed her arm and pulled her into a hug. "I can kick his ass if you want." He whispered but she laughed and so he grinned.

She was 16 years old, he was 14.

Alex came to her house right after his wrestling training. A lip swollen and bleeding. He slammed the door shut and Addison poked her head into the kitchen where he was now.

"What the hell happened?"

"A dude punched the hell out of me. I hate him." She rolled her eyes and took some ice for his lips.

"You should stop with this wrestling stuff." But he just shook his head.

"Can't. And this is the last year. Next one I'm going to enlist. And waiting for you to send me a naked picture of yourself." He smirked and she slapped him. He laughed even more.

"Don't wait for that. I'm not going to take naked pics for you, perv." Addison glared at him with a Satan look. Alex froze and swallowed. She then grinned satisfied.

She was 17 years old and he was 15.

Alex was pacing nervous Addison's room, waiting for her to come back from her 'mother-daughter-shopping-for-the-prom'. He had paid all of his money to buy a suit. And now he was waiting for her to come back. When she opened the door he froze.

"Is everything okay, Alex?" he nodded and swallowed again.

"I..uhm… come to the prom with me." She raised her eyebrows. He knew that she didn't like when someone tell her and not ask her those kind of things.

"I mean..do you want to go to the prom with me? I know that I'm 2 years younger than you…but..Next year you'll be at college God knows where…And I won't miss the opportunity to go with someone that really cares to me." He rambled. An habit that he picked from her.

"I'd like to, ace." She smiled blushing and he grinned.

The night of the prom he picked her up with a limo that Archer, Addison's brother, rented for him.

"You look beautiful." He murmured while they were dancing. Her chin on his shoulder. He was 15 years old but he was tall and big.

"Trust me, you're more beautiful than me." She smiled and hugged him tightly. "Yale accepted me. I'll leave this summer."

"Congratulations, babe." Alex kissed her cheek smiling but his eyes were watery.

"I still want you to fly with me, tough."

She laughed and caressed his cheek slowly.

"You're making me fly now, Alex." He smiled this time. Not cocky, but sweet. And Addison kissed him. "I love you, Alex. You're not only my best friend. And I think that you are smart enough to understand what I mean." She whispered, kissing him again.

"Love you too, Monty." He nodded still smiling but then…he grabbed her ass with one hand and grinned. Addison slapped his chest and he laughed.

"C'mon. You'll leave for College tomorrow. We have to take a lot of pics so you can't forget my face." Alex smirked grabbing her waist from behind and hugging her tightly.

"Oh trust me. With that grin, your face is unforgettable." Addison laughed but she didn't try to escape from his grip.

"I love you, Adds." He whispered kissing her neck softly.

"You're such a sweetie. What happened to my cocky bestfriend?" she teased him but with a smile.

"He became your boyfriend." He smirked kissing her cheek this time.

"Yeah, he did." Addison nodded and turned to face him. Her arms around his neck and her hands were running through his hair. "I'll leave tomorrow." She whispered resting her forehead on his.

"I know." Alex nodded. He took a deep breath and swallowed. "But you'll be back for the Thanksgiving, right?"

"Of course." She replied softly, pecking his lips. "Don't get yourself in trouble. Promise me."

"I'll try my best. I promise."

"Good. That's good." She nodded and kissed him. "I'm going to miss you so much."

"Fuck. Me too." He groaned and started to kiss her neck with more craving. Their breath unsteady. A little moan escaped from Addison's lips and she swallowed.

"You're trembling." He whispered against her skin. Addison simply nodded half-closing her eyes. He turned her on. And that scares her because she never felt like this. "If you don't want…stop me.." Alex made his way toward Addison's bed with her in his hug. She didn't reply. She just shook her head and took off his BonJovi's t-shirt. Her eyes became dark, her hands were running on his muscular chest. Her breath became more heavy and quick. She looked up at him and swallowed hard.

"I..I never done this before…" she whispered, her face burning.

"Do you wanna do it with me?" he lay her down, his lips closer to hers.

"Yes. Yes, I want to." She whispered again and he smiled unbuttoning her shirt. His hands were trembling too. Even more when he left her only with her bra and her jeans.

"You're beautiful." She smiled, her face burning even more. Alex took off her jeans and did the same with his own too.

Addison quickly took a look to his body, swallowing when she saw how tight were his black boxer now. She shivered when he lay on top of her. They're underwear was on the floor some minutes later and he was attacking her body with his lips.

"There's no coming back..y'know, right?" he whispered against her entry before gave it a tentative lick.

"Oh God, Alex." Addison moaned loudly unconsciously spreading her legs even more for him. He grinned and made his way back on her body. His eyes on hers.

"It could hurt a little. Relax, babe.." Alex breathed on her lips, kissing her slowly.

"I'm relaxed." She grumbled.

"No, you're not." He shook his head and tried to enter her with his index finger.

"A..Alex.."

"See? You're not relaxed. You're having a dead grip on my finger. And…it's only my finger." Alex deadpanned and she slapped his arm.

"I don't think that you're in the position to slap me. I have my finger in your…."

"Alex!" she said out loud, covering his mouth with her hand.

"Now you're relaxed." Alex said satisfied and with an huge grin.

"I don't know if I can stand this.." Addison swallowed. Alex simply smiled now.

"We don't have to rush it. We can take our time." He guided himself toward, after have put on a condom, and pushed a little. "Does it hurt?"

"No, it's..it's..wow.." she breathed and Alex, slowly, entered her waiting for her body to adjust around him.

"You okay?" Alex stroked her cheek and the moved his hand on her breast.

"I'm perfect…" Addison half closed her eyes and locked them with his when he began to move in and out of her. "I love you, Alexander Michael Karev."

"Love you too, Addison Adrienne Forbes Montgomery." He kissed her hungry, speeding up a little more his tempo. Alex felt her shiver in his arms and several minutes later he felt her body massaging his.

"I…" she gasped and let herself gave everything to him, moaning.

"Me too.." he replied smiling, coming right after her.

"That was..amazing.." she was breathing heavily and Alex withdrew himself from her, laying next to her and taking her in his arms.

"Yeah, it freaking was." He grinned and Addison curled against him. Her cheek on his chest.

"Where did you learn those things?" she looked up at him with an eyebrow raised.

"I'm not answering…"

"Alex." She demanded in that Satan way that always scares the hell out of him.

"I…I watched a lot of those movies…y'know.." he confessed blushing.

"Perv." She laughed kissing him and then she resumed her position on her chest.

"You're tired?" Alex asked and she simply nodded. "Sleep, babe. I'll be here when you'll wake up."

"Promise?"

"Promise."

She was 18 years old, he was 16.

Addison sighed sitting on her seat on the plane to Seattle. She asked for something strong to drink. The steward brought her the drink and she thanked him.

She didn't know what she was going to do to have her husband back. To make things right with him. She just…Couldn't let Derek walk away from everything, their life, their marriage, her.

When she entered the Seattle Grace sliding doors with that fierce that everyone envied her , she saw something that broke her inside but that made her look like the class woman that was since she became the world class surgeon, double certified OB/GYN Addison Forbes Montgomery-Shepherd.

She walked toward the couple that made her grew evil inside in that moment. That Satan woman that always scared the hell out of everyone who crossed her way.

"Addison…What are you doing here?" Derek asked her with an annoyed look on his face.

"You would have know if you bothered to return anyone of my phone calls." Addison raised one of her perfect eyebrows. She was pissed off royally. Seeing her husband with that 12 years old made her blood boil. "Hi, I'm Addison Shepherd." Addison presented herself to this woman.

"Shepherd..?" The 12 years old replied confused.

"And you must be the woman who's been screwing my husband."

Review please! It means a lot to me!
