My first one shot =) Might make this a collection of shots involving elevators but not quite sure of what the subjects will be!! Hope you enjoy! I give you DAMN ELEVATORS!

Addison stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for the surgical floor, the doors started to close but were stopped by a familiar hand, Derek's hand.

"Morning" he smiled.

"Morning" she nodded back.

As the doors began to close again another familiar hand stopped them, Mark's hand.

"Hello best friends" he smiled.

Derek chocked on laughter quietly and Addison rolled her eyes as the doors began to close for the third time another familiar hand stopped them, Alex's hand, he smiled awkwardly at them as he entered.

'This is really not my morning' Addison thought to herself as the doors finally closed.

As they began a quiet ascent to the surgical floor Addison stood awkwardly in the middle of the three men, the three men she had slept with, the three men that had broke her heart in one way or another, this really wasn't her day, at least Derek and Mark didn't know about Alex, one of them would have made a snide remark by now if they did.

As they were almost at the end of there short elevator ride it jolted causing them all to stumble slightly, the lights flickered, they were stuck.

"Great, just what I need!" she grumbled to herself.

Alex leaned over to the emergency button and stabbed it repeatedly with his finger "I think its broke" he mumbled "Has anyone got their cell?"

"I do" Addison said pulling it from her purse "Not much signal but I'll try"

"Chief, hi it's Addison….we sort of have a little problem….myself, Derek, Mark and Karev are stuck in the second elevator between the 3rd and 4th floors and the emergency button isn't working, can you find out how long we'll be stuck and call me back, thanks chief"

"Well isn't this fun" Mark smirked.

"The best" Derek grimaced.


15 minutes later Addison's phone rang "Hello….Hi Chief….3 hours are you kidding me! I have patients, we all have patients….fine, ok, bye"

"We're gonna be in here for at least 3 hours so we might as well sit, he's going to get all our patients dealt with" she said as she lowered herself to the ground "The one day I decide to wear Gucci to work and I have to sit on this dirty floor" she moaned.

"So, 3 hours huh" Derek said.

"The joy" Addison said sarcastically, suddenly her phone rang.

"Callie hey….yeah we should be in here for about 3 hours, it sucks….Derek, Mark and Alex….Callie don't even say it! I know what your thinking, don't!….i hate you right now y'know that, you're a sucky best friend sometimes….sure Joe's at eight….i have a feeling I'm going to need plenty of Martini's after this….ok, bye Cal, I'll probably bombard you with texts when I'm bored….i will….bye!"

"I thought I was your best friend" Mark exclaimed as she shut her phone and threw it back in her purse.

"Shut up Mark" she replied harshly.

"Woah, someone's in a bad mood"

"Well being stuck in an elevator wasn't the way I was expecting to start my morning"

"Maybe you should start taking the stairs" he smirked.

"Do you have to be an ass all the time?" she smirked back.

"Will you two stop bickering" Derek snapped.

"Only if Addison here cheers up a bit"

"Shut up Mark!" Derek and Addison shouted.

Alex had remained pretty quiet, he had been enjoying the interactions of the 3 attendings and the view he had of Addison's legs but that wasn't something he should be thinking about 'We are remaining professional now Alex, get it together, so we had sex once, it was one time, it was hot, I have no feelings for her at all, it was just sex and I made a prat of myself after, idiot, ok so maybe there were some feelings but it doesn't matter, we are being professional'.

"You're awfully quiet over there Karev" Addison said calmly.

'Shit, now I have to look at her' he cursed in his head.

"What, no, I'm fine, don't really have anything to say"

"That's so unlike you, you seem to have a lot to say for yourself in the OR" she laughed.

"Yeah well I might as well take this time to think" he said, his eyes locking with hers almost hoping she understood that all he was thinking about was her.

"Don't hurt yourself" she laughed.

"I won't don't worry" he smirked 'Yep, she doesn't get it, thats a good thing, chill Alex, get it together' he thought to himself.


Half an hour later they noticed the elevator doors starting to open.

"Hey guys" the Chief shouted through the small gap "We're trying our hardest to get you out but there's something wrong with the hydraulics or something like that, are you all ok?"

"We're fine Richard" Derek shouted.

"I could do with some food" Mark groaned.

"Still thinking with your stomach I see" Addison smirked.

"I'll see what I can do, Addie someone wants to talk to you"

"Hey Manhattan" Callie shouted through the gap.

"Hello there Mrs O'Malley"

"So, having fun?"

"The time of my life"

"I bet you are, must be pretty awkward being in there with the three guys you….oh they can hear me can't they"

"Yep, they can hear you"

"I'm gonna go"

"You better run Calliope Iphegenia O'Malley!"

"The three guys you what Addison?" Derek asked.

"Callies middle name is Iphegenia" Mark laughed.

"Dude she's Callie O'Malley" Alex laughed.

"Alex, Mark shut up" she replied "What are you talking about Derek?"

"Callie, she said it must be pretty awkward being in here with the three guys you….what?"

"Nothing, I don't know, work with or something, its Callie, she's strange, she's all loopy since her vegas wedding, she's not making any sense lately, don't know what she's talking about"

"They had sex" Mark muttered.

"What I didn't, we didn't, I, we, we didn't" they both stuttered.

"I saw you, coming out of the on-call room, your hair was all over the place and you couldn't look each other in the eye, you had sex"

"Oh shit" she groaned.

"So he's telling the truth" Derek said "An intern, really Addison, I thought you had more taste"

"I'm still here y'know" Alex said waving his arm "And anyway, you can talk, the name Meredith ring any bells?"

"That's different, me and Meredith love each other"

"Well judging by the way Karev here's been looking at Addie I'd say he has a little crush'"

"What no, I, no, we, no" Alex stuttered.

"So you just had sex with her?" Derek asked.

"Well no, I, no, we, no" he stuttered again.

"Mark, Derek, leave him alone, so we had sex, it was one time, it was good sex, hell it was great sex, sometimes you just need a little release after a hard day"

"Is that why you slept with Mark?"

"Derek how many times do we need to have this conversation, I slept with Mark because you ignored me for the best part of two years, I couldn't actually remember the last time we shared a bed let alone had sex and I have never, ever slept with anyone I didn't have feelings for so don't try and make me out to be the only bad guy in all this"

As Derek was about to say something until a package flew through the gap "I bring you food" said Callie.

"Thank god!" Mark sighed.

"How you all holding up?"

"I am going to kill you Callie" Addison shouted.

"What, what did I do?"

"Thanks to your 'the three guys you' speech dumb and dumber here know about me and Alex and they won't shut up about it"

"Sorry"

"Yeah you better be sorry, now all anyone can talk about is my sex life"

"You slept with KAREV!" the chief shouted through the gap.

"Ah, Chief, I didn't know you were there"

"Addison Forbes Montgomery I expected better from you, sleeping with an intern, its bad enough that Derek and Burke did it, now you"

"It was just once Richard, calm down"

"This hospital is a sexual harassment law suit waiting to happen, you should be out in 2 hours, the gap is going to close now, I'll talk to you when you get out"

"Great, just great" Addison sighed.

"Wait until Bailey comes after you" Derek smirked.

"Oh shut up"

"So you've only slept with people you have feelings for huh?"

"What, I didn't say that"

"Yeah you did Addie" said Mark.

"Well, I….its irrelevant"

"Were you aware of these feelings Karev?" Mark asked.

"Well, the fact that she kissed me a few weeks before she dragged me to an on-call room, I sort of figured she was attracted to me"

"Well by the sounds of it it was more than attraction, right Addie?" Derek smirked.

"Can you both just shut up, just drop it"

"Add what did he do to you?" Mark asked calmly.

"What makes you think he did anything, maybe it was me"

"Because believe it or not Addison I know you, what happened?"

"Mark please drop it!"

"It's obvious she doesn't want to talk about it so can you just shut up!" Alex shouted.

"Well when somebody messes with one of my best friends Karev I have something to say about it!"

"Best friend, really Mark" Derek snorted "You wouldn't know friendship if it slapped you in the face, if you did you wouldn't have slept with my wife"

"Derek lets not even go there please" Addison begged.

"Fine" he grimaced.


The 2 hours were endured in almost complete silence, the sounds mostly coming from Marks eating and Addison's endless text session with Callie, Alex and Derek both sat staring at there hands and generally not doing anything.

"Did you really have feelings for me?" Alex asked softly, the three attendings all froze, their attention now focusing on Alex.

"Not now Alex" Addison sighed.

"I need to know, did you have feelings for me?"

"I said not now!"

"No, Now! I need to know, I've been sat here for 2 hours thinking about it so I need to know did you or did you not have feelings for me?!" he said, his voice getting angrier with each word.

"It doesn't matter, I'm not your girlfriend remember" she spat angrily.

"Addison I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say all that to you, I don't even know why I did, I was an ass, a complete moronic ass and I'm so sorry. I put my stupid guard up because I was scared of breaking your heart like the McMorons over there…."

"Hey we're still your bosses y'know" Mark snapped.

"Shut up Mark!" Addison snapped back not averting her eyes from the gaze her and Alex sat in.

"I didn't want to hurt you, I wanted you, I didn't want 20 minutes in the on-call room, I wanted you, I want you because god damn it Addison you drive me crazy and we spend most of our time screaming at each other over patients because you always seem to think your right which makes me want to kill you sometimes but I love you, I love all of you and letting you get away was probably the most ridiculous thing I have ever done and I just need you to know that I am in love you"

"Did he just say, he loves you?" Derek gasped.

"Shut up Derek!" Addison snapped again, she paused briefly and took a breath before speaking "You broke me Alex, you did exactly what they did, you made me feel small and worthless" she said her voice cracking as tears began to stream down her face "I didn't once say I was your girlfriend but I thought maybe from the weeks of endless flirting you'd get that I had feelings for you because even though you can be a complete ass, you said you'd notice if I went missing, you bought Mark a vanilla latte because he was rude to me…"

"Hey! You said…"

"AND" she started not letting Mark finish "you made me feel like myself again, I have tried to forget how I felt but I can't I wanted you too, I was ready to love again and I did, I loved you"

"And you don't now?"

"Alex I am unbelievably, absolutely, stupidly in love with you and you were too focussed on the fact that we might mess it up to see that and then you went and messed it up anyway! I have tried so hard to forget you, to forget when we almost kissed in NICU, to forget when I kissed you at Joe's, the way my hand felt on your face and the way it felt to be held by you but I can't forget because I love you and I don't want to have to forget!"

Addison and Alex sat staring at each other for an endless minute, neither knowing what to do or say next, their breathing was heavy, Addison was sniffing back tears and she could've sworn she saw some in Alex's eyes too.

"Dude if you don't get off your ass and kiss her I promise I will kill you!" said Mark.

"I second that" said Derek.

Alex stood up slowly, walked over to where Addison was sat, her knees pulled close to her chest, he grabbed her arm and pulled her up, he wiped away her tears with his thumb and kissed her softly on the lips "I love you" he sighed "I can't believe I'm saying all this in front of your ex-husband and ex-whatever but I love you and…." he was cut of by Addison's lips on his, they broke away again only for her to say "I love you too" before their lips crashing back together.


"I think they've forgotten we're here" Mark whispered after a few minutes of staring at the sight in front of him.

"I think your right" Derek laughed "Hey we're moving!" he said jumping to his feet.

As Mark stood up the doors pinged open revealing the Chief, Callie, Bailey and her interns.

"OH MY GOD!" the interns gasped as they saw Alex pressing Addison up against the elevator wall, her legs wrapped around him, kissing each other passionately.

"What the…." Bailey started.

"They've been doing that for at least five minutes" Mark said stepping out of the elevator.

"They confessed their undying love and haven't put each other down since, Karev can make quite a speech, Addison too for that matter" Derek smirked.

"Addison! Karev! Get out of that elevator NOW!" the chief shouted making the pair jump away from each other quickly, they had barely noticed the fact that they were no longer stuck and being stared at by some very surprised faces.

Addison straightened out her hair and skirt and stepped from the elevator dragging Alex with her, she stopped briefly to wipe the lipstick of his mouth.

"Hi Chief, nice to see you, its been a long 3 hours" she smiled nervously.

"Would you like to explain why Karev here had you pressed up against a wall?"

"Ah well, its kind of a long story"

"I'm sure it is" he sighed.

"Wait did you just say they 'confessed their love'?!" Izzie exclaimed looking at Derek.

"I did, its kind of our fault that they're kissing, we said we were going to kill him if he didn't kiss her after everything they said"

"You told Alex to kiss your ex-wife?" Meredith asked curiously.

"Yeah"

"And you don't think thats weird in anyway?"

"Oh its weird but it would have been completely ridiculous if he didn't"

"And your ok with this Mark?" Meredith asked.

"If she's happy, then I'm happy, yeah thats right, I've grown" he smiled.

"What the hell are you doing kissing one of my interns!" Dr Bailey shouted slapping Addison on the arm.

"OW! Hey, what about Callie she married one of your interns, in Vegas! And how can we forget McDreamy over there" Addison shouted back.

"Oh don't worry, I had words with them too but why the hell is it always one of mine!"

"You got the pick of the best" Addison smiled.

"You are such a suck up!" Bailey smirked.

"Told you it was Bailey you had to worry about wait until she finds out you had sex with him in the on-call room" Derek laughed.

"DEREK!" Addison shouted.

"OH, sorry I didn't mean to say that out loud"

"You slept with him already!"

"I might have done"

"In the hospital"

"Possibly"

"Addison I thought you were better than those fools" she said gesturing towards Derek and Mark.

"I am, look it was weeks ago and we pretty much ignored each other after but being stuck in that elevator gave us time to think and talk and we realized that we were both being completely stupid and I love him"

"Yeah and I love her" Alex grinned sheepishly.

"Fine, as long as there is no favoritism when it comes to work you do what you damn well want, the others have" Dr Bailey groaned, she turned to face Mark and poked him hard in the chest "And you stay away from Izzie Stevens, I'd at least like to have one intern who hasn't slept with their superior"

"I can't promise anything"

"Yes he can, he can promise, I am not going to sleep with him Dr Bailey" Izzie said quickly.

"So are you my girlfriend now or what?" Alex said pulling Addison into him.

"I think it could be arranged" she smiled kissing him again "I love you"

"Love you too" he smiled.

"Ok, seriously, Evil Spawn being all cutesy with Satan, making me feel a little bit sick" Cristina grimaced.

"We can hear you crack whore!" Alex shouted.

"Alex, language!" Addison said hitting him on the shoulder.

"Someone's whipped" said Cristina.

"I'm not…."

"Alex, why don't we use all that frustration of yours for the better, my office has a very nice couch we can take advantage of" Addison winked.

"Woah, woah, woah, no sex in this hospital! Honestly Addison whats gotten into you!" he turned his back to Addison and Alex to face the group "You are all a bunch of horny teenagers! Honestly what the hell is wrong with you all! This is a hospital, this is not a place for you to get your kicks, you can do that at home" the Chief shouted.

"Uh, Chief" George started.

"Yes O'Malley"

"They left" he said gesturing to the spot where Addison and Alex were stood.

"Oh for god sakes, get back to work all of you"

"Chief, if I were you, I wouldn't go after them" Derek smirked.

"I know but when I get my hands on them…."

"Bye Chief" they all shouted.
