A\N: Hey everybody. Sorry it took me so long to update, but here's the next chapter!

Thanks for all those sweet reviews, please make me happy again!

~~Addison's POV~~

As she grabbed a mug from the cupboard, she softly sang a happy song. She didn't notice Pete walk into the kitchen, or that he stopped to lean against the doorway to listen to her singing. He stood, contently, and watched her, a sweet smile on his face. She put the mug down on the kitchen counter and took hold the coffee pot, pouring hot steaming coffee into her mug. Still singing the song she turned around, ready to drink the warm liquid. She immediately stopped when she noticed him.

She narrowed her eyes. "How long have you been standing there?" she demanded, the mug still near her lips.

He smirked as he pushed himself off of the doorway and took a few steps towards her. "Long enough to know you have a beautiful voice," he told her, the smirk changing into a sincere smile.

She raised her eyebrows and snorted, leaning against the counter to give herself a pose. "Nice try, mister," she responded, trying to act like she wasn't flattered by the compliment.

"What?" He pouted, taking another step towards her. "Don't you believe me?" he asked, looking in her eyes playfully as she did nothing to move away from him.

She smiled at him, looking him up and down. "Should I?"

"Of course," he responded softly, giving her goose bumps when she felt his breath on her skin.

"Then I will," she told him with a small smile, her voice barely above a whisper.

They were standing dangerously close, smiling at each other, happy just to be in the presence of the other. To an outsider, they would've looked like a couple, which was exactly what shot through Naomi's mind when she saw them as she walked into the kitchen. Her entrance made them jump away from each other as soon as they noticed her.

"Hi… Nae," Addison greeted her, glancing at Pete nervously.

"Hi…" Naomi stammered, looking from the one to the other and back.

"Uhm, I have to go… prepare for our patient," she told them. She sent a smile in Pete's direction, who happily returned it. He then watched her with a small smile as she walked away, her hips swaying a little.

As she reached her office she quickly walked inside, sitting down behind her desk to wait for Naomi, who she was sure would burst in any second.

"Okay, so, come on. I want details," Naomi demanded only minutes later as she walked into her office and closed the door, sitting down on her couch.

She smiled at her and stood from behind her desk, walking towards the couch to sit down next to her. "Okay… Well… Do you want the whole night? Or… I mean, I've got a patient coming in any minute… so…" she replied, knowing it would take a long time before Naomi would be done interrogating her.

Naomi chuckled. "Just start."

She grinned at her, taking the box of chocolates from the table and offering her friend one. "Okay," she started, "well, after you left, I went outside, and there he was," she said, her smile getting happier. "We walked to Sam's house together, we eventually even held each other's hand, and we just talked, you know. It was very comfortable… I mean, of course there was tension, but it wasn't forced or anything. It's nice to be in his company," she told Naomi with a smile. "Great, actually, but… I don't know what to think of it, you know… I mean, I'm used to him being cocky and arrogant. He always teases me, but now, he was nice, sweet, he was so… different."

Naomi chuckled and she stopped talking, looking at her friend with a questioning expression on her face. "It's nothing, you're just… blind, that's all." Naomi shrugged and received raised eyebrows from her friend. "Come on, go on. You held each other's hand while walking to Sam's?" she asked, bringing Addison back to their original topic.

Addison smiled again. "Yes, yes we did… We walked to Sam's and we held each other's hand... And then, he held the door open for me and we just stared into each other's eyes… it was so… confusing. I mean, it was great… but also confusing." She frowned slightly. "I'm just sure we would've kissed if we would've gotten the chance… but then Cooper interrupted us and it was kind of awkward because Pete and I were standing very close and…" she rambled on, but stopped when there was a knock on the door. She looked up and the door swung open, revealing the man in question.

"Hey," he spoke kindly, grinning at her.

Her face lit up immediately at the sight of him. "Hey," she responded, smiling sweetly at him.

"Uhm, our patient is here," he told her, pointing behind him.

"Okay, I'll be right there." The smile was still on her face.

"Don't let us wait too long," he replied, grinning cockily at her.

She raised her eyebrows at him and her eyes twinkled with pleasure. "What makes you think that?" she asked in a semi-shocked voice and let out a surprised chuckle.

He chuckled smugly and stepped a little closer, not looking anywhere else than her. "Prove me wrong," he told her, his cocky smile still in check as he stared in her eyes, daring her to look away.

"I will," she responded daringly, grinning flirtatiously at him.

"Good," he said before turning around, a smug expression on his face.

When he had left the room, she turned to Naomi, smiling smugly at her.

"Jeez, next time get a room!" Naomi told her, looking incredulously at her.

Addison just raised her eyebrows at her. "What?" she asked.

Naomi gave her a 'duh' look. "The eye-sex, it was just… unbelievable." She shook her head at the memory.

She grinned mischievously at her. "I wish we'd have to, 'get a room', you know." she responded. Naomi let out a semi-shocked gasp, which only made her laugh. "I have to go Nae, don't want to prove him right." She continued. The mischievous grin was still in place.

"Oh, you're bad, you're so bad!" Naomi told her playfully, her eyes full of disbelief.

As she walked to the door, she giggled, and turned around when she opened it, smiling at her friend. "That's not a crime," she responded smugly before walking out of her office.

"No, but you two practically having sex in public just by looking at each other should be!" Naomi yelled after her, a knowing expression on her face, which changed into smug when she turned around and walked back into her office, looking at her friend in astonishment.

"We were not…" She started indignantly, "I mean… we were just…" She continued, not really knowing what she actually wanted to say, because actually, Naomi was right.

"Just go, Addie. We'll talk later," Naomi told her warmly. "You don't want to prove him right, do you?" She asked her smugly, trying not to laugh.

She let out a short sarcastic laugh. "Oh, there's not even a word for how bad you are." She told her, trying not to smile as she turned around again and quickly walked away.

She chuckled when she heard Naomi's laugh behind her as she walked towards the exam room. She couldn't help but get a little nervous as she got closer. They hadn't been alone in a room for more than ten minutes since what had happened the previous night and she didn't know what would happen. Of course, they wouldn't be completely alone because their patient would also be there, but if it was going to be a repeat from this morning, they might have a problem. The difference was that their co-workers wouldn't be there, there wouldn't be the pressure of Naomi or Cooper searching something behind every glance or smile. She loved them and they kind of gave her hope, but they also pushed her. They pushed her while she actually wanted to take things slow. She didn't even know if she was what Pete wanted, if the feelings were coming from both sides.

She suddenly realized she was standing in front of the exam room and she stopped walking, taking a deep breath before reaching for the door handle.

~Pete's POV~~

"Dr. Montgomery will be right here," he told his patient while he helped her sit down in the chair, hoping that she indeed would be right there.

"Okay, that's good, that's very good." The patient nodded while her hands were on her belly.

After a while he looked at the clock and decided he would go and see where Addison was. After he told his patient he would see where Dr. Montgomery was, he walked out of the room and almost immediately bumped into her. Her. Addison. He still didn't understand how somebody could be that beautiful, but he was happy it was possible.

As he looked down, he smiled lovingly at her. "Hey," he greeted her for the second time that day. Why couldn't he say something better? Why was all he could say was 'hey'? At least it was better than no 'hey' at all.

"Hey," she whispered back, smiling sweetly at him. "I'm sorry, I wasn't really…"

"Paying attention?" He finished for her, a smile on his face. "It's okay. I wasn't either," he told her.

She smiled at him and he looked into her sparkling eyes, not daring to close the small remaining distance between them. As he stared in her beautiful blue eyes their smiles faltered slowly and the tension rose. He realized she didn't dare to move either, which actually meant she did want to. He slowly put his hand on her hip, hoping she would interpret it as a sign to move closer. He squeezed her hip softly and a smile tugged at the corners of her lips, their eyes never leaving each other as the tension mounted. The distance between their bodies slowly decreased as she set a small step towards him, their bodies brushing against each other.

Suddenly, an agonizing scream woke them out of their little bubble, making their heads shoot up. They ran into the exam room, finding their patient clutching the chair she was in as a contraction washed over her.

"Guess this'll be more than just a check-up, huh?" their patient asked after the contraction was over, still panting slightly.

Addison smiled soothingly at her. "I'm afraid so, Lisa. But you're going to be okay, I promise."

"Is there anyone we can call for you? Your boyfriend or husband?" he asked, looking questioningly at her.

"He kind of… left me," she told them, her expression turning sad slightly. "But he'll come back, he just needs time."

He just raised his eyebrows, not able to believe she would just take him back if he would return.

Lisa seemed to notice because she looked at him and he quickly explained himself. "It can't understand how you'll just take him back." He hoped he wouldn't hurt her feelings.

"Well, I… Is there a woman you love?" she asked him, looking directly at him. His and Addison's head shot up simultaneously, both taken aback by the question.

There was a small pause before he answered. "Yes," he told her honestly. "I think there is." Was there? Did he love her? He glanced at Addison and saw she was looking at him with a surprised expression on her face. He smiled softly at her, wondering if she knew it was her he meant. Their eyes met and for a moment the rest of the world disappeared, but then Lisa coughed and they looked at her again, slightly ashamed.

She was eying them with a knowing look, a small smile on her face. "I see." She spoke, and he instantly knew what she meant but hoped it wasn't too obvious, not everybody had to know.

Then a new contraction hit her and he didn't have the time to worry about how obvious his love was. He looked at Addison as she tried to help Lisa through the contraction and he knew he loved her, he had never been so sure. The woman in front of him could make shivers go down his spine just by smiling her breathtaking smile at him and one touch was enough to send electricity jolts through his body, and, she made him a better man by just being herself.

Hours later they walked out of the exam room together, feeling quite content with themselves. Lisa had given birth to a beautiful baby boy and there had been no further complications.

"That went well, didn't it?" he asked her, smiling at her as they walked next to each other. "We make a good team."

"Yes we do." She grinned, their hands brushing against each other as they walked. "It went very well."

Just as he wanted to speak again Naomi called her name and they turned around, slightly annoyed that their private moment had – again – been interrupted.

Addison smiled at her best friend. "Hi, Nae."

"Hey, Addie. I was wondering, maybe we could have dinner at yours or mine? You know, girl's night in?" Naomi asked her, smiling hopefully at her.

Addison's face lit up. "Sure, yeah!" she answered, returning Naomi's smile. "Mine? Seven o'clock?"

"See you then," Naomi replied before saying goodbye.

Addison turned to him again and he looked at her, a small smile on his face. "So, I have to go… see you tomorrow?" she asked, as if she was afraid he wouldn't be there.

"Of course." He smiled reassuringly at her.

She grinned at him before saying goodbye and walking away.

He watched her walk away and suddenly knew what he was going to do that evening, he would see her earlier than tomorrow at work, he would see her tonight, because he had just decided Sam would have a drinking buddy that evening.
