Thanks for all reviews.

Here's my new chapter. Hope you like it. Enjoy!


Chapter 3

"So, what do you want to talk about?", Amelia asked her parents.

"Amelia you left New York without telling me", Addison said angry
"Yeah. I know. I'm sorry."
"Ami, you can't just go to Seattle, because you heard a phone call between your mother and Richard and leave home without a word", Derek added.

In this moment Amelia got really angry, "No? Because it is what you did. You were never home for month, than things went rocky and you left mom and me without any word. We didn't know for month where you were. You don't tell me about leaving, because it is what you can do best. Where were you all the years? You were never home. You left us years before you really left New York. I played with the New York philharmonic orchestra, everybody was there … only you, my father, were at the hospital, because a god damn patient was more important than this. Hell, even Naomi, Sam and Maya came the way from L.A. … and you couldn't make your way from the fucking hospital. You know what, I don't care, because you didn't care for years. You wonder why it was Mark? You really wonder? He was there! He was more a father to me than you were. He was more a husband to mom than you were. You sent him always! Anniversaries, birthdays, whatever … so know what. I will go back to New York tomorrow, because there are people who care and I really hope that mom will leave with me", she glared at her dad, turned around and left the office. Both Addison and Derek were stunned about what happened.

"Wow that was …", Derek said after a while.

"Unexpected? No Derek, it wasn't. She missed you so much. You know her, she was always you little girl, but when you stopped coming home, she went miserable. She never complained or something like that, but … she throw herself into work, she played the piano for 5 hours a day, she went out, she did everything not to think about it. She's like you. Derek, I know sleeping with Mark was … was one of the worst ideas I ever had, but … she's right. He was there all the time. I'm really sorry about what happened and I regret it and if I could, I would turn back time, but I can't. We have three options know and it's your turn. So Ami and I could leave with the first flight tomorrow, you could come with us or we could all stay here both as a family", she gave him some papers.

He looked at it, "Divorce papers?"
"I will sign, if you sign. Your decision, but I really want to make it work.", Addison had tears in her eyes, "Our flight will leave tomorrow at 7 am."
"What about your patient?"
"I will operate in a few hours and when there are complications I will come back and help, but I don't think I can stay here, when you're with your girlfriend, your Anti-Addison. So … I will search for our daughter and you should do some thinking … so see you."
She turned around to leave.

"Addie, wait", Derek grabbed her arm, "Addie you can't just do that … decide like this."
"But you have to. It's me and your daughter or you little girlfriend. I just … I told you when you sign, I will sign without a word."
"But Addie, it's been …"
"Don't … just don't … I'm … a good surgeon, a good mother and … maybe I wasn't the best wife, but I want to make it work. But I don't want to be with someone, who doesn't want to be with me, Derek.", she looked into his eyes, "Just decide."

She wanted to leave again, but Derek pulled her into an embrace and kissed her like he hasn't kissed his wife for month. Hell, he missed her, even if he doesn't want to admit it. Meredith was nothing like her. Addison was right. Meredith was his Anti-Addison. The kiss was beginning to heating-up, when Addison abstracted herself from the embrace.

"We can't go on like this. We can't go on like that. If I can make a wish, don't take it back(1)", she just said and left and left Derek stunned and alone in the office.

Meanwhile Meredith told Izzie and George about what happened last night.

"He really has a daughter?", Izzie asked confused.

"Yep", Meredith nodded, "never met a girl, who was arrogant like her."

In this moment Alex arrived, "Who's arrogant?"
He sat down next to Meredith.

"You didn't hear it. McDreamy has a daughter. She arrived yesterday and told Meredith a slutty intern, who screws her dad", Izzie answered.

Alex had to laugh, it sounded so much like Amelia. He could imagine her saying that.

"What's so funny about that?", Meredith asked.

"It's funny… a 16 year old said something like that… that's funny."
"Hahaha. She's really Satan's child", Meredith said.

Alex stood up, "Don't you dare. Do you even know here? What would you say in her situation?", he said angry.

"Alex, I'm …"
"No, don't. By the way his wife arrived a few hours ago."

"WHAT?"

"She's beautiful, a red head, just like her daughter."

"Alex. What are you doing?", Izzie asked.

"I'm … "

In this very moment Amelia arrived, "Alex, hi. Can I talk to you for a moment?", she looked at him and he saw that she felt miserable. He stood up and said, "Yeah sure. Let's go out of the hospital", he smiled at her. They left.

Izzie looked at Meredith, "Was that…?"
"Yeah."

"Wow. She's really … she looks beautiful."
Meredith looked at Izzie, "You're not really helpful. You know that?"

"Sorry."

Alex and Amelia sat down at a bench in front of the hospital.

"What happened?"
"I screamed at my dad", she looked at Alex.

He had to laugh a little, "Really?"

"Yeah", she looked at him miserable, but he started to laugh, "Sorry Ami, but this is … his face had to be great." Amelia started to laugh to, "Yeah. It was really … he didn't expect this."

The laughed for a while and it was healthy for Amelia, but then she started to sob and cry. Alex didn't say anything. He just pulled her in a embrace and tried to comfort her, "Everything will be alright Ami."

She looked at him, "No, it won't. Mom and me … we will leave Seattle tomorrow and I don't think he will come with us."

"Ami, I …"
"No, don't. It's not your fault."
"You want to tell me what happened in New York."
She shrugged, "He was never home and … mom and I, we both became miserable. He always sent Marc. His best friend to look for us and one night… I don't know why, but mom was really miserable. It was their anniversary and she spent hours to prepare everything. She came back from work really early. I went to a friend, because I really didn't want to bother them by whatever they were doing. I came back the next morning and … our brownstone looked … different. A few of her designer clothes were dirty and lying on the floor and she sat on the stairs and didn't say anything. I didn't know what to do, so I called dad, but he didn't pick up. Then I called Marc and he came and we put her into bed, she doesn't want to go to her and dad's bedroom, so we brought her to the guest bedroom and Marc, he … he told me, that something happened between him and mom and I … I don't know. He left and mom became better. She said that, but she missed him and I don't know… it's just … I wish I could forget this, but I can't so… we will leave tomorrow."
"Ami, I'm sorry about what happened."

She looked at him, "I'm glad you were one of the first people I got to know in Seattle. I like you. Your like a big brother."
He smiled at her, "Yeah and you're like my little sister. So, normally I'm not that nice, but I like you to Amelia and I will be sad when you leave tomorrow."
"We can call."

"Yeah, sound good."

In this moment Addison arrived, "Ami, I searched you everywhere."
"Sorry mom."

"So… maybe it would be the best, if you go shopping?"

"Shopping on my own is boring."
"I…"
Alex jumped in and said, "I could go with her Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd. My shift you ended a few minutes ago."
Addison looked at him skeptically, "You sure?

"Yeah. What do you think Amelia? Shopping?"
"That wasn't a real question. Right?"

Addison looked at Alex relived, "Thank you Dr…"
"Karev"

Addison gave Amelia her credit card, "Here you go. Have fun and Ami don't forget to stop and eat."
"Yeah mommy", Amelia said ironic.

Addison left and went back to hospital. That Karev-guy seemed to be ok and she didn't want to leave Amelia alone, but she had an op. He seemed to be a friend to her. So she hadn't to care this much.

When she entered the hospital, a young surgeon came up to her, "Dr Montgomery-Shepherd?"

"Yeah."
"I'm your intern for the op. I'm Izzie Stevens."
"Ok. So Stevens you know the patient?"
"Yes."
"So go prepare her. I will be there in a few minutes."

"Sure", she left and went to the patient. She didn't know why, but she liked her. She seemed to be nice.

Meanwhile Derek sat in his office and was thinking about his family. They would leave with the first flight tomorrow. What should he do? He looked at his watch and noticed that Addi was beginning to operate in a few minutes, so he went to gallery. He always watched her op's when they were younger and she watched his. She was right. He left her and Amelia and sent Marc. He looked down at his wife in the or.

Was he really ready to let her go?


(1) In the end of the dialog between Addi and Derek I used a lyric from "We can't go on" by Lena. I don't know if you know her, but she's a german singer and I really like her and was hearing that song non stop when I wrote this chapter. So it seemed fitting.

So hope you liked it and review.
