A/N: I'm so sorry Finn had to die. But otherwise the story would be become boring. Time to bring some old new things into the fanfic!
Read, enjoy, review!
Chapter 10: Ferryboats in Seattle.
It's been over a month since Finn died.
"Mummy, why do we have to go?" Sarah nagged.
I sighed. I'm at the airport. Again. Three weeks ago I was here to, waving Derek goodbye. It's strange I'm so sad about him going back to Seattle.
Now I'm at the point of going back also, but now after a very long time.
"Because mummy is very sad here. In Seattle there are some friends of mummy, and maybe they can cheer me up," I replied to Sarah.
"Why I can't cheer you up?" she asked a little sad.
"You do, you do, honey. It's just.. Everything here remembers me all the time about daddy, and that hurts.." I said.
"I know," she said quietly and she grabbed my hand.
"Let's make a stop at the bathroom before we go on the plain," I said after a moment of thinking.
"Are you sick again, mummy?" she asked me.
The past month I wasn't feeling very well, and Sarah noticed, obviously.
"I'm not sick. I'm just a little nauseous, that's all." I said, not being entirely true.
"All right. I'm glad mummy." she replied, and walked with me to the toilettes.

A few, well, okay, lots of time later, I drove trough Seattle with a sleeping Sarah on the backseat, and lots of bags.
I didn't know where to go, I didn't want to go to my old house, yet anyway.
I knew Izzie and George still lived there, but I didn't want to face them now. It would be painful to tell the whole story. I just wanted some peace and quiet right now.

There he was. I didn't go here, to find him. Or see him. But now he was here.
I walked over to the bench he sat on. I shove Sarah a little aside, she was sleeping on my hip. Then I quietly sat down next to him.
"Hey Derek," I said, trying to let my voice sound calm.
His head turned to me, then he just looked at me for a few seconds.
"Mere," he said, a little confused.
There was a moment of silence, and I took the opportunity to watch a ferryboat float by.
"What are you doing here? I mean, what's the matter?" he asked, on a nice and sweet tone.
"I..I'm moving back here," I stumbled.
Another ferryboat floated by, and Derek nodded.
"It's just.. everything reminded me of him back there.. The house, Detroit Hope, the people, even the supermarket.."
A tear fell down on my jacket.
".. I'm moving back here," I said, now more secure than a minute ago.
"You're moving back here," he said, with his understanding, comforting voice.
"Do you have a place to sleep?" he asked, a few minutes later.
I shook my head.
"Do you want to sleep over at my place?" he asked.
I looked a little confused. How..
"What do you mean? At the trailer?" I asked.
"Yeah.. You and Sarah can sleep in the bed. I'll sleep at the couch. Maybe Sarah can play with Roger a little bit," he nodded.
"Roger?"
"My dog. I got a dog," he replied.
I nodded. "What about Addison?" It was surprising I really didn't thought about her earlier.
Derek looked away smiled. Why did he smiled? I asked myself.
"Addison left. A long time ago. She's back to New York. Maybe to Mark, I don't know.." he said.
I nodded.
"Why?"
"I don't know how, but she found out about prom.." he said quietly.
"She got really mad at me, and said she finally understand everything. I was confused, but not sad.." he said, and looked at me.
"The next day she was gone. And then, when I went to work, I heard you left town also.. I was lonely again. Then I got Roger.." He sounded sad.
"Things were complicated, Derek.." I replied, trying to comfort him in some way.
"Yeah.. I know. So.. What do you think?" he asked.
"What do I think?" I said a little confused.
"About sleeping over.." he replied with a smile.
"It'll be great, Derek. Thank you. Tomorrow I'll go to Izzie and George," I said.
"No hurries, no worries.." he said, and we watched the ferryboats for a while.
Thank you for reading. Next chapter, a Izzie-chapter! Don't forget to review.. ;-)
