A/N: Ahhh, so I suck, I know, I know. Shoot me. Life took over. It does that alot. I'm sorry. Forgive me?

Pete was sat in front of the TV, sipping on a bottle of beer and switching through the channels, when there was a knock on his front door.

"Hey," Addison spoke softly and looked up at him as he answered the door. "Can I come in?"

"Yeah, of course." He nodded and opened the door wider before closing it behind her.

"I brought Italian." She held up a brown bag as she stepped into the hallway.

"Oh, good, I haven't cooked anything." Pete took hold of the bag. "I didn't know you were coming over."

"I'm not interrupting anything am I?" Addison's face suddenly fell and she lowered her hand with the food. "I can go."

"No, no, you're not." He shook his head and smiled softly as he looked at her. "I just wasn't expecting you."

"If you'd planned something I can go." She motioned towards the door.

"I haven't planned anything." Pete looked at her. "Stay." Addison nodded and made her way into the kitchen where she placed the bag of food down. Pete followed her and got two plates from the cupboard before he placed them next to the bag.

"I didn't know what you wanted so I got a bit of everything," she explained as she began to take the food out of the bag.

"Sounds good." He gave a smile. Addison nodded and piled some food on the two plates. "What do you want to drink?" Pete watched her.

"Water is fine."

Pete nodded and got them each a glass before they moved into the living room together. They began to eat in a comfortable silence. Addison kept her gaze on her plate the whole time she ate.

Pete noticed her behaviour and tried to break the silence after a while. "So, any reason you decided to stop by?"

She shrugged and shoved some food around her plate. "I didn't feel like being alone."

He nodded and leaned back into the couch. "Well, I'm glad you came here."

"You are?" she questioned and looked up at him.

"Yeah." Pete nodded again. "You shouldn't be alone if you don't want to."

"Okay." She nodded.

"Are you alright?" He watched her.

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"You don't look fine."

"I am, honestly."

"You know you can talk to me."

"I know." Addison nodded and looked back down at her food. Pete did the same and they continued to eat in silence with the noise of the TV in the background.

"Are they any films on?" Addison asked after a while.

"I don't know." He gave a small shrug and reached for the remote. "What do you feel like watching?"

"Anything."

Pete nodded and zapped through the channels before settling on SleeplessinSeattle. She curled her legs underneath her body and leaned back into the couch.

"Ice cream?" He glanced at her as he put his empty plate on the coffee table.

"Sure." She nodded and looked at him. Pete gave a smile and carried their plates into the kitchen before he returned with a bowl of ice cream. They sat and ate their ice cream together while they absently watched the film.

"I've been thinking about visiting my mother to find out about my father," Pete began to speak after a while.

Addison turned her head to look at him. "Do you want me to come with you?"

He looked back at her before he shook his head. "No, you shouldn't have to go there."

"And you shouldn't have to go alone," she pointed out.

"I'll be alright."

"I don't mind coming with you."

"Really?" Pete looked at her. "I haven't seen my mum in years. I don't know what state she's in."

"That means that you shouldn't go alone." Addison reached out for his hand and squeezed it.

"Thank you." He gave a small smile as he looked at her.

"When are you thinking of going?" she asked.

"I don't know yet." Pete shook his head. "Soon, I think."

"Okay." Addison nodded and squeezed his hand again. Pete gave a soft smile and gave a squeeze back. "It'll be okay," she reassured him.

"I hope so."

"It will."

Pete nodded and looked down at their hands.

"Well, we've missed this film," Addison commented and nodded towards the TV where the credits were rolling.

"Looks like we did," he agreed. "But we've seen it before."

"True." She nodded. Pete gave a soft smile and put the bowl of ice cream on the table before leaning back into the couch. A comfortable silence surrounded them as they leaned back into the couch.

"Are you nervous?" Pete spoke after a while. "Naomi scheduled the IVF today, didn't she?" Addison nodded slowly and began to lean into his side. "Three more weeks."

"It's not long," she spoke quietly.

"No, it's not." He shook his head and shifted so he could wrap an arm around her shoulders as she leaned into him. Instantly Addison rested her head against his chest so she could hear his heartbeat.

"You don't have to be scared." Pete softly rubbed her arm.

"Aren't you?"

"A little," he admitted. "But I don't want you to worry too much. It doesn't do you any good. You're not alone, no matter what happens."

"I know I'm not. I know I have you."

"So whatever happens, we'll do it together." He looked ahead of him as he gently ran a hand through her hair.

"We will," she agreed and nodded. "Together." Pete gave a small smile and rested his cheek against the top of her head.

"Do you promise you'll always be here?" Addison whispered and slowly looked up at him.

He lifted his head so he could look back at her before he slowly nodded. "I promise."

"I can't do it alone. I need you to be here, no matter what."

"You won't be alone, Addison. I'll be there for you, for whatever you need. I promised you and I'm going to keep my promise."

"Thank you," she whispered and looked up at him.

"Always." Pete gave a soft smile and brushed a strand of hair behind her ear as he looked down at her.

A comfortable silence fell over the pair of them before Addison slowly began to lean closer. He watched her for a few seconds and began to lean closer as well before placing a light, tender kiss on her lips and slowly pulling back again so their faces were still close. She cupped his face and pulled him closer to kiss him again. Pete closed his eyes and kissed her back instantly, his arm tightening around her. Addison shifted closer to him and wrapped her arms around his neck. He slid his hands to the small of her back to hold her tight to him as they kissed.

"Shall we go upstairs?" she whispered. Pete nodded before he returned his lips to hers and stood up with her in his arms. Carefully, he carried her up the stairs and into his bedroom where they gently made love.

Okay, we just couldn't not have this cuteness in here. They also needed to take this step, don't you think?
