Her shift had just started but already Meredith just wanted to be back home, snuggled under the covers fast asleep. She was exhausted, to put it lightly. These days the baby was constantly moving, making sleep nonexistent for her.

She was running on autopilot, or adrenaline, she didn't know as she walked down the hallway on her way to see a patient.

She stood in the room watching as April talked to the patients, her eyes closing every once in a while as she would start to doze off.

"Dr. Grey?" She heard April's voice calling her name. She opened her eyes noticing the room full of people staring at her.

"What? Oh, I'm sorry." Meredith apologized.

They all headed out into the hallway, April stopping her.

"Are you okay?" April asked, rubbing her hand up and down Meredith's arm.

"Yeah, I just haven't been sleeping much lately." Meredith replied.

"That bad already?" April smirked, referring to the pregnancy.

Meredith slightly smiled. "Yeah, I mean it's a good thing because it means our baby is still alive but I would love to get some sleep. He or she kicks twenty-four seven although right now it's quiet."

April and Meredith parted ways, Meredith ducking into one of the on call rooms. She sat down, rubbing her hand over her face as she blew out a breath.

"Just a few minutes." She whispered to herself as she laid down, closing her eyes to catch some sleep.

She was standing at the desk listening to the commotion around her. Her head pounding as she tried to get through the paperwork in front of her.

A voice spoke, a voice she would reconize anywhere. She looked up seeing a person she hadn't seen nor care to see in years.

"What is she doing here?" Meredith muttered under her breath seeing Addison talking to the chief. She watched until the redhead started coming down the stairs, quickly making it look like she was occupied with her paperwork.

"Meredith Grey? Boy it's been a long time." Addison said as she approached Meredith.

Meredith laughed slightly, turning to face her. "Addison, nice to see you." She replied, trying to be polite.

"Likewise." Addison looked Meredith up and down. "You're pregnant?" She mused.

"Yes, twenty-eight weeks and yes, it's Derek's.

"Oh, he finally knocked you up. I'm surprised it took this long." Addison said snidely.

"This isn't my first pregnancy." Meredith said through gritted teeth. She slammed the files onto each other before picking them up, starting to walking away.

"I don't know what Derek sees in you," Addison started. "But I promise you that I will get him back. He can't resist me." She said smugly.

Meredith panicked, wanting to find Derek. He had to know Addison was back, back for him. She knew Derek loved her, that much was obvious but she also couldn't help but fear he would go back to her.

She wasn't anything special. She was Meredith Grey, fat and pregnant, in her mind. Addison on the other hand was beautiful, slim and sexy. The complete opposite of Meredith.

"Derek, we need to talk." Meredith breathed, thanking her lucky stars she found him.

"Everything okay? Are you two okay?" Derek asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine, the baby's okay. Listen, Addison is back and she's here for you."

"Come on, Mer. Don't be ridiculous."

"She told me, she's here to get you back, Derek.

"She told you that?" Derek asked in shock.

"Yeah, your ex-wife told me that." Meredith sighed. "Just please Derek... if you choose to go back to her, I'll understand."

"Meredith, are you even hearing yourself? I love you, baby and only you."

"You promise?" She asked, her eyes full of fear as ahe looked up at him.

"I promise, babe till the end of time." He spoke softly, kissing her forehead.

Addison went in search of Derek, finding him in the supply closet. She opened the door, making it look like she was in search of something.

"Derek," she whispered rummaging through a random bin of supplies.

"What are you doing back, Addison?" Derek asked, his voice dripping with venom.

"I decided to transfer and maybe...give us another shot." She said seductively, walking over to him.

"Addison, I'm in love with Meredith," Derek sighed trying to back up but found himself against a shelf.

"Don't you miss what we had, Derek? We were so good together."

"You slept with my best friend!" Derek shouted angrily.

"That's in the past, we could start over." Addison purred, pressing her lips right up to his cheek as she made sure he couldn't escape.

He closed his eyes knowing what was coming and there was no way he could stop it.

"Addison, please." Derek begged.

"I'm better for you Derek, better than her. She's nothing, just a depressed stuck up little bitch."

"You don't know anything about her." Derek seethed. Addison pressed her lips against his, trying to deepen the kiss as he tried to back away. He thought about pushing her but he would never hurt a woman in his life.

"Addison, stop." He mumbled, trying to lightly push her away. He could hear the door opening, a light bursting in. They both looked at the door, Derek turning pale as he saw it was the love of his life.

"Meredith." He breathed. She stood there in shock.

"Seriously? Are you fucking kidding me right now?" Meredith asked angrily.

"Meredith, wait." Derek tried but she was already gone, running down the hallway.
