Thanks for all the reviews! And Kayli and Jess, I love you too :)
I changed the title of the story because well, in history class my teacher was talking about irony. And I can't have people continuously walking in on Derek and Addison this whole story, so at the end, expect a little twist.
--------------------------------------------------------
Dawn was approaching. Light poured in through the windows of the Airstream trailer. Derek awoke at the sight of the light, he rolled over to his side. Addison was still peacefully sleeping, he could hear the soft sound of her breathing. Taking a chance, he whispered "psst Addie, you awake?" No reponse.
"Addison!" he tried again, voice louder. She was either still sleeping, which wasn't possible, or she was simply ignoring him. Derek was getting annoyed and horny. He lightly shook her although she hated it when he did.
"What!" She turned around to face her husband. Addison was exhausted, having come home late from surgery.
"I was thinking... you know" There was a mysterious twinkle in his eye.
His wife just smirked "Okay, whatever you say" she rubbed her finger against his wrist "Ugh be right back" Hopping out of bed, she hurried to the so-called bathroom which was scarcely bigger than the hospital's linen closet.
"You all right?" Derek asked after a few moments of agony as he waited for his squee partner.
"I'm fine!" she lied, sticking her head back in the toilet as another wave of nausea hit.
"You don't sound like it... I can call Richard if you want..."
"No!" Addison sharply interrupted. She didn't like missing work; her philosophy was that patients always came first, unless she was terribly ill. Which in this case, she wasn't.
Derek gave up "If you say so"
Addie returned to the bed a few minutes later, wiping her lips "Okay, I'm ready" she leaned closer towards him
Her husband pulled away "You know how I don't like sick people"
"...and yet you work with them everyday" she retorted
"I don't like them in bed..." Addison scowled, and Derek quickly added "No babe, if you're sick..." he stopped with a sigh "forget about it and you relax"
"Derek, I'm fine" she crept even closer "now let's do it."
He grinned "Wow... you do know how to make a man happy" he said as he reached down her pajamas and felt a skimpy thong
She gave him a look "Your trailer is tiny. Closet is too small. What else am I supposed to wear?"
"For starters, nothing" he grinned naughtily, stripping off her shirt.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Half an hour later, all was good in the Airstream trailer, specifically in the bedroom.
"You're very good for a sick person" Derek teased, laying back on the pillow
Addison pretended to be offended "Why I am not sick and you know it"
Derek stood up and stretched his arms "Whatever you say dear"
His wife also got out and started making the bed, pulling the sheets tightly against the mattress. "oh god not again" she murmured, rushing to the bathroom. She hoped Derek had not noticed, but he was already on his way out the door. "I got to do something about this" she muttered to herself after the ordeal was over.
"You coming Add?" Derek called out from the door "You know how Richard threatened to put us on probation if we're late again"
The world renowed surgeon put a hand to her chest and took deep breaths, panting like a dog "I'm coming..." she weakly yelled back
--------------------------------------------------------------
All day at Seattle Grace Hospital Addison couldn't help but think about what was going on inside her. She tried not to get her hopes up, she and Derek had tried for years before he gave up and became indifferent. But there was nothing else to do but wonder...
"Hey, wait up!" Addison chased Derek through the hallway
Derek turned around "Oh I didn't hear you walking... but hi" he said with a smile
"You couldn't hear me in these heels?" she pointed to her feet
"What did you want me for?" Derek glanced at his watch "I have a cranial reconstruction in half an hour"
"Oh, I was just going to say I'm leaving in a few minutes, just wanted to let you know, so you don't have to wait for me or anything"
"Okay, see you later" He pecked her on the cheek as they parted
Addison took a deep breath. She walked out the doors and into the parking lot, driving to the nearest drugstore. Cautiously walking inside,fingers trembling as she grabbed the home pregnancy test from the shelf. There was that thrill and fear of it being positive, and the disppointment and relief of it being negative. Tossing the rectangle box on the counter, she hastily slapped a $20 bill down, grabbed the bag containing the precious pregnancy test, and swiped her change from the cashier.
Rushing home was a disaster. She ran 2 stop signs, got a few honks from angry drivers and almost received a ticket. It was not like Addison Shepherd to act this way, but with all the sex she and her husband had lately, it wouldn't be much of a surprise if it was positive.
Derek arrived home to a unusually quiet trailer. Is she asleep now? he wondered, since the TV or cd player was usually on. But it's only 9:30... "Hey, Addie, you awake?"
No answer. He walked to the bedroom, making sure she was okay before anything else. Addison heard his footsteps, and as soon as his shadow came into sight, she threw a plastic bag at him.
"Wow, somebody suddenly get pissy?" Derek joked. He picked up the bag and studied its contents "Oh god..." he whispered

There. You got the FHBs :)
