does she not want to be a mom. or what's her deal exactly? i think it would be pretty awesome if derek got full custody of emma and she could grow up with her brothers. cause meredith is definitly not mother material well so far. she's kinda making elise seem very mrs. cleaver. so can you imagine what this little girl would turn into growing up with mommy dearest. so i look forward to the next chapter. and the boys will be here. so exciting. update soon!
-The custody thing will play a role in this story in future chapters.

Why is mer being so weird around her daughter? Good chapter update soon! Hopefully with some more addek
-Much more Addek =D
deslil & iSeriouslylovegreys: To answer both of your questions, my point actually was that she is overchallenged. I think she doesn`t know how to feel about having a child depending on her. She never had a good mom either and I just think that she doesn`t know how to deal with her feelings for the baby. I do belive that she loves her, but is scared for some odd reason. Not even I know the real answer but I think something like that.
Mariella: I have to rewrite the "What if" part you asked for. I`m just not happy with it. I think I think to much about it because I want it to be perfect and right now it`s just a really stupid chapter. Sorry but you have to be a little more patient. But I`m working on it. PROMISE 3

Chapter 10
.
Addison was waiting at the airport for over an hour now. Derek`s plane was late and she was hungry. She wasn`t worried because she knew that the plain left Seattle airport late.
Then she saw him walking towards her with a big smile on his face.
"Hey" he said huggin gher closely kissing her softly.
"Hey. I´ve missed you." She told him honestly.
"I`ve missed you too. All three of you." Her talks back giving her another kiss. "Let`s go home and meanwhile you can tell me how you`ve been the last three weeks." He smiled now a small smile.
He then took her hand and she led him to their car. During that walk they mainly enjoyed being together again.
"Well I`m good. I got a little backpain now. They are getting heavy and my feet are swollen but besides that, I`m great. I`m mostly in a good mood and I think they are too. They are both very active."
"Hope they aren`t fighting." He chuckled. "I`m sure they`ll fight a lot if they are a bit like the both of us."
"Hmm probably. Now tell me about Seattle. How`s Emma and Meredith?"
He`s been 3 weeks in Seattle, because Derek didn`t want to leave Emma just yet. He didn`t trust Meredith enough to leave earlier but Izzie convinced him that his daughter would be fine. She`s there after all and so is George.
"Emma`s doing good, but I`m worried anyway. Meredith isn`t as attached as a mother should be I think. But hopefully this will get better."
"I`m sure it will get better. Meredith`s young and wasn`t ready for a baby. You said that yourself. Maybe she`s only needs a little time to grew into the motherly role."
"I certainly hope so. But for now Izzie is there and she tooks real good care of Emma. And George is very sweet with her too."
"See, that`s good. I`m sure Meredith will come around." But actually she wasn`t so sure at all. She hoped that she`ll come around for Emma`s sake, she honestly did.
"Yeah. You know I already miss her. She`s the most beautiful girl I`ve ever seen. She`s so lovely and such a good baby. She hardly ever cries and sleeps 4 hours straight."
"That sounds as if she feels comfortable." Addison replied looking forward to their boy`s birth.
"Yeah, I guess so. I hate that she`s in Seattle. It`s so far away." His honesty surprised her. He`s never been the man that talks a lot but this was good. She was glad he trusted her enough to talk to her about his fears concerning his baby daughter.
The weeks passed quickly, at least Derek thought so. Addison couldn`t await the birth of her children and she felt as if the weeks passed very slowly. Finally 9 days earlier than her due date her biggest wish was fulfilled.
„Derek!" Addison yelled when she suddenly felt that her pants were all wet.
"Addie?"
"My water just broke."
"Oh my god. Okay, uhm sit down, I`ll get your stuff and we can go." He was excited and nervous this would be his sons birth. The first time he would witness a natural birth. In his intern years he only assisted a couple of c-sections but he`s never been at a life natural birth.
During their 20 minutes car ride to the hospital, Addison had her first contraction. She was painful but not too long. She also felt that the first baby was now lower in the pelvic.
She suddenly griped for Dereks right hand and groaned.
"Addison? Are you okay?"
"I think this was the first contraction." She said when it was over, trying to concentrate to breath correctly.
Now it was 11 in the evening and Addison was already in labour for 12 hours and for about 20 minutes she was pushing.
The moment she felt the first contraction, she knew she has never done anything as hard as childbirth before.
"It`s crowning Addison." That the midwife said 15 minutes before.
"Keep pushing and he`ll be out in like a minute." Kristen the midwife encouraged her. "You`re doing very good."
Derek was sitting behind Addison supporting her as good as possible. His arms were slung around her body like she wanted it and his hands were placed on her belly. Every now and then Addison would take a hand and squeez the life out of it. Not on purpose of course but she just needed something to hold onto. And he was glad to obey because after all, she was just making him a father. She was having his sons.
"The head`s out Addison, do you want to feel it?" Kristen asked a very, very tierd Addison.
She just nodded and moved her hand towards the place where she knew her son`s head was.
The second she touched her son`s head, tears started streaming down her cheeks. Tears of joy. She`d never been that happy before.
"We need to continue Addison."
And again Addison pushed as hard as she could and when she felt the tiny little body leave hers, she was so happy and when she heard Tyler`s first cries she sunk back leaning into Derek. Relived that he was okay.
"You did great. Henry will be here in no time now. You`ll see." He said while stroking a strain of ginger hair out of her face.
"You do it, I`m too tiered." She said closing her eyes for only about 2 seconds because of the really painfull contraction she felt. Biting on her lips, she started pusing again and this time, it would be harder. Different because the second baby was breech. But they agreed on natural birth anyway because it wasn`t really more dangerous than cephalic presentation.
"All right Addison, come on. I know you can do it. I can see the baby, just try to keep pushing." Kristen encouraged her. And with one big push, suddenly the baby was out, except for the head.
Addison had to breath in slowly to adjust to that new feeling. It felt strange that the baby wasn`t out but wasn`t in completely either. She felt like the baby would rip her in two pieces. But she knew she has to stay strong and so she continued pushing. Pushing so she would finally be able to hold her sons.
It took almost 10 minutes until baby Henry was born but even though it was the hardest and most painful thing Addison has ever done, it was also the most beautiful thing she has ever done and would do it again if necessary.
This time Derek lifted Addison up before he softly let her fall back into the cushions and got up to cut the umbilical cord while Tyler was placed on his mothers chest for the very first time, Derek took Henry and sat next to Addison placing the second boy on her chest as well.
"You did such a good job." Derek said softly kissing his wife. Afterwards the newborn twins got his full attention.
"We did a great job." The new mom replied still not beliving how happy she was in this exact moment.
"Okay, but you did all the difficult and painful stuff while the only thing I did, was having lots of fun with their mother."
"You have a point there." She said smiling. "They are so wonderful, I feel like I`m complete now."
A couple of days later
"Finally home." Addison exclaimed happily and walked straight into the living room sitting down on the comfortable couch, her eyes falling shut only a few seconds afterwards.
"It seems like we`re on our own now boys." Derek said but soon noticed that both babies were asleep as well.
"Or better, I`m on my own hmm?" he whispered to himself and put both boys in the cradle they had put up in the living room. As they were very little, both twins fit in there together easily. Then he joined his wife on the couch placing his arms around Addison and decided that a little sleep wouldn`t harm.
To be continued…
Thanks for reading guys ;)
I actually had the idea of a breech birth while writing another fanfic, but then I found out that it`s very common that one twin is born cephalic presentation and one breech so I decided it would fit better in this story. Thanks for reading. I have written one more chapter (I promise it`s not the end) I just haven`t had time to think any further. It sets 4 years later so the question to you, do you want another chapter between this one and the one that sets 4 years later or shall I just update the one already written? It`s your decicion so please review
