You don't have to save me, you broke my fears - All this Way.

She spends the first three days after Henry's operation by his side. She doesn't move from her seat, thinking she's already spent too much time thinking of other things than him. She holds his hand and tells him meaningless stories that he can't hear. But it makes her feel better. Arizona comes in a few times, checking in on him – updating her of any changes. Alex does to but he doesn't talk to her much, just watches Henry's stats for a bit before leaving.

Callie comes and sits with her and Addison tells her she doesn't want to talk about Owen and the other woman understands, so they talk about the beach in LA instead. Derek and Meredith pay her a visit and the second day, they bring baby Bailey and introduce him to her. In turn, she introduces Henry, who's started breathing on his own – Meredith tells her she should get some sleep that's not in an uncomfortable chair. The adult Bailey drops in for a chat the next day, and tries to talk her out of doing whatever it is she's doing with Owen but Addison just ignores her. Richard makes an appearance too, standing at the door, talking about her days as an intern, he, like Meredith, tries to persuade her to go to the Archfield and get some sleep.

On the fourth day Owen turns up. He takes a seat and proceeds to complete some of his paperwork. They sit in a comfortable silence until April comes looking for him. Amy appears and they talk more about what happened with Jake – Addison tells her that he didn't leave her because of a job but because she couldn't see how important the job was to him. Amy asks about the person he cheated with but Addison is fuzzy with the details. Soon Amy leaves, promising to come and see her again later.

For most of the afternoon of the fourth day she is alone, she thinks a lot about Jake, about her marriage and whenever he thoughts stray to Owen she makes herself think of something else. At midnight Derek shows up, telling her he's going to drive her to the Archfield. He doesn't take no for an answer and basically drags her to the car. Most people would see this as odd – they've been divorced for seven and a half years and haven't seen each other in four. They both cheated on each other and by the end they just didn't love each other enough but yet as she climbs in to his car she realises it's not odd. You can't be married to someone for eleven years and not care about them, they were good friends before they got married and they're friends now – they still love each other; they just love other people more. He leaves her in the parking lot to go home to his family; she just goes in to the hotel and sleeps.

They fifth and sixth days are repeats of the fourth, if you were to replace Derek with Callie and then Amelia. She spends her mornings with her son and then as midnight calls, someone will persuaded her to go back to the Archfield. She says goodbye Henry – who's making good progress – and then sleep in her hotel bed until the next morning. Except when she appears at the hospital on the seventh day Henry hasn't progressed, he's taken a step backwards. He's back on the ventilator but Alex tells her it's only a precaution, to make sure his lung re-inflates the whole way. Addison goes and stands on the walkway for an hour or so – watching life happening, watching the doctors and nurses and pretending, for a bit, that she's gone back in time.

That evening, when midnight strikes, it's Owen who takes her away. Instead of driving her to the Archfield though, he takes her to his apartment. He sits at his kitchen table while she sleeps in his bed. At three in the morning he joins her, holding her like she's going to disappear – they sleep together, in the most innocent sense of the word.

When she wakes on the eighth day she has a headache. Owen makes her breakfast but they don't talk. As they prepare to leave the apartment she goes dizzy, and nearly faints. Owen's there to catch her and she realises that she hasn't really drunk much in the last few days; she's just been too worried about Henry. When they reach the hospital Henry is just about to come off the ventilator again. Addison sits by him for the whole day; Owen comes down and does his paperwork, and Richard drops in. There still not okay with it, Bailey thinks that Owen is a step from throwing his career away and Derek doesn't think she's coping with Henry's illness and is turning to sex to make her feel better – or that's what Meredith tells her he said. Later Bailey makes an appearance herself, just after Owen has gone off to help April in the ER. She makes it clear she's not overly pleased with Addison. She makes a fuss of Henry, while they discuss Tuck. He's doing really well according to his mother, which makes Addison happy.

"He's doing really well too," Bailey comments, and Addison nods. She knows he is, she just worried he's going to take another turn. "He's going to be okay, I'm sure," she adds, a moment later. Her pager starts to beep and she glances down at it.

"Go." Addison advises, standing and moving over to her friend. She puts her hand up to her head, her headache having come back with a vengeance and starts to go dizzy. She puts her hand out to steady herself but it doesn't help. She falls to the ground unconscious.

"Addison?" Bailey starts, knelling down next to her. She calls out for a nurse but Derek appears instead.

"What the hell?" he asks, seeing Addison on the floor. "What happened?"

"She just collapsed. Pulse seems normal. She seemed fine," Bailey states. Derek leans down and picks up his ex-wife.

"I need an exam room," he says as Bailey opens the door to the room next to Henry's. Derek follows her in, placing his ex-wife on the bed. Addison's eyes flicker open and she looks up unsteadily.

"Hello." Derek says, pointing a light at her eyes. "You gave us a scare."

"I'm fine," she replies, sounding better.

"You collapsed for no reason," Bailey interjects. "I'm going to at least take some bloods."

Owen stares down at his patient, a 45 year old male who crashed his car in to a wall. He has a crushed pelvis, he's broken 4 ribs along with one arm and a leg and is currently in cardiac arrest. Owen doesn't think he's going to make it – they've been shocking him for half an hour now. April looks up and him and he nods, it's time to call it.

"Time of death 15:55 pm." Owen strips his gloves off as Derek Shepherd appears at the door.

"Hunt," he calls and Owen turns to Kepner for a second.

"Can you inform the family?" he asks and she nods, and his attention goes back to Derek. "What is it Shepherd? Do you need me for a case?"

"It's Addison, actually, Chief," Owen eyes snap up to Derek's, a worried look appearing on his face.

"What is it?"

"She collapsed. She's fine now, or says she is. How was she this morning?"

"She felt a little dizzy, that was it." He sounds uncertain, and Derek nods. Owen turns as a gurney is wheeled in to the ER.

"Patient suffering from third degree burns…" Owen looks back at Derek and speaks.

"Page me if something happens."

Miranda Bailey doesn't like waiting for results. She definitely doesn't like waiting for results when she's technically meant to be at home. Seeing Henry was the last thing she was supposed to do, she hadn't really anticipated that Addison would collapse. She's worried; people don't faint for no reason. She's looked at Addison's file, which didn't have anything of note in it apart from her fertility problems.

"Results for Dr Bailey," the man calls and Bailey moves to pick them up. She starts reading them as she walks to Addison's room. When she enters the other woman is pacing, up and down, near the window. She turns to face her, a concerned look on her face.

"Is Henry okay?" Bailey nods and Addison gives a sigh of relief, sitting down on the bed. "Okay."

"I have your results." she states, waving the piece of paper in the air.

"And they came back clean, didn't it? I'm fine, I'm just tired." Addison smiles and stands up, going leave.

"I think you should sit down Addison," Her voice has a touch of the maternal about it and it makes Addison look up, staring at her friend. She doesn't sound worried, in fact, she sounds the complete opposite, but it slightly unnerves her. She turns as does as Bailey wishes.

"What is it?"

"Your HCG levels are high," Addison stares at her, and then looks down. Bailey doesn't insult her intelligence – she's a neo-natal surgeon after all.

"My follicle count is two, two Bailey." she says disbelievingly.

"That didn't mean it was impossible, just unlikely. You're pregnant Addison." Her friend doesn't look up at her words but speaks anyway.

"How high are my HCG levels?"

"I'd say you were a week gone, if that." Addison nods, taking in this information. "I take it you know the risks." Again Addison nods.

"This isn't happening." she whispers. "for god's sake Henry could die!" she shouts. "and I'm pregnant."

"Would you like me to page Owen?" Addison ignores the question as a knock sounds at the door. Bailey moves and pulls it open. Amy stands, the smile on her fades as the sees the upset look on her friends face.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, Amy. I'm fine," she replies, wiping the tears from her face.

"I'm sorry to interrupt, but…but Jake's at the front desk." Addison stares at her and feels like screaming, instead she swears under her breath.

"Jake?" Bailey asks. "As in your husband Jake?" Amy nods as Addison swears again.

"Stall him, take him to Henry. I don't care. I really don't want to speak to him right know Amelia. " Amy turns; she's confused but doesn't ask any questions.

"You have to be very careful, Addison," Bailey says, pausing to gauge Addison's reaction. "About telling Owen about this."

"It's his baby Bailey. I'm having his baby." she's saying this more for her own benefit really, it doesn't seem real. None of the last week seems real if she's being honest.

"Wanting children is what ended his marriage. He wanted kids and Cristina didn't. It ripped them apart."

"Can you page him please?" Bailey nods, leaving her alone. She sits, her eyes shut, taking it in. Her son is in the next room, his lung having collapsed nine days previously, she assumes that her husband is with him at this moment – the husband who walked out on her a month ago. And she's pregnant, a thing she thought was impossible, with the baby of a man who she's known for just more than a week.

She swears, loudly, for a third time, standing and moving to the window. She slides down the wall until she's sitting on the floor and puts her head it her hands. She breaths in deeply, fearing that she's going to start hyperventilating if she doesn't. Addison is starting to panic, she's pregnant with Owen's baby and Jake is here – right at this moment. Despite what she's told Owen, what she's told everybody, she has no clue how Jake will take the news that she's been sleeping with someone else. She doesn't think he has a right to be angry but thinks he probably will be.

The door swings open and Owen stands there, and everything suddenly feels much more real, much more frightening. He walks over and slips down next to her, and for a crazy moment she thinks Bailey's told him.

"Bailey said you had to talk to me?" she nods, looking at the floor. Addison has no idea how to broach the subject, should she tell him about the baby first or the fact Jake has turned up. She goes for the easy option.

"Jake's here."

"Oh." He sounds defeated and when she looks at him he refuses to look at her.

"He um…might hit you when he finds out, so…so be prepared, okay?" She's stuttering because her mind is on the other point she has to mention. Owen stands and makes for the door, she can tell by the way he moves that he's angry.

"Owen."

"Save it, okay. If you want to go back to your husband that's fine by me." His words are sharp and he's basically shouting. She stands too, knowing she has to tell him.

"Owen," she starts as he reaches for the door handle. "I'm pregnant." He spins round and stares at her. "with your baby," she whispers. Her words are greeted by silence and for a second she's scared he's going to be angry at her. Instead of shouting like she thinks he might, he walks over to her and kisses her, his hands in her hair. This is the moment, though, that the door opens. Jake stands in the door way, Amy and Derek behind him. Amelia is in the middle of saying something but the words die on her lips. Addison pulls away and stares at her husband. It's good she told Owen to be prepared. Jake does exactly she thought he would.

He punches Owen.
