A/N-Sorry for the delay. Here it is.

-Georgie's Room-6 am-

Addison slowly opened her eyes expecting to find a small curly headed little girl sleeping next to her, but instead she found a note taped to the bed. Wiping the sleep from her eyes, she reached for the note and read it.

Dear Addie,

Took Gigi to the cafeteria for some ice cream. Be back soon.

Derek

Addison rolled her eyes. That was all she needed, a hyper four year old. She pulled her sweatshirt on and put her hair into a messy bun. She honestly didn't care what she looked like. She chuckled at this thought. Four years ago she would be petrified for anyone to see her like this, but having children changes you in many different ways. As Addison walked into the cafeteria she quickly spotted her messy daughter and not so clean ex-husband. He was trying to help her keep the ice cream off of her gown, but he was failing terribly. She laughed hard as Georgie accidentally creamed Derek in the face with her fudge bar. She decided to save him before it was too late. She walked over to them and smiled as Georgie hoped up and ran towards her. Derek grabbed Georgie before she could get her chocolate all over Addison. "Gotcha!" He yelled as he grabbed her. Georgie giggled loudly, and the whole cafeteria laughed at the little girl's infectious giggle.

"I probably should have told you that I was taking her this morning, but I didn't want to wake you." He said as he sat Georgie on the table.

Addison grabbed some napkins and began to clean Georgie off. "Yeah, and I could have told you that she doesn't do ice cream so well. Might have saved you from the wound." She smiled as Derek tried to remove the ice cream from his face.

Derek stood back and watched as Addison went into mom mode, and liked her finger, then rubbed it on Georgie's cheek. The little girl squirmed, but was too weak to get away from her mother's grasp. Once Addi was done she stood back and helped Georgie off of the table. "So what did you two talk about?" She asked.

Georgie ran and grabbed Derek's hand. "Unca Derek said he is my daddy!" She looked up at him and smiled, then looking at her mother she continued. "Is that true Mommy?"

Addison looked at Derek slightly annoyed then at her small child. "Yeah baby, that is true."

The little girl's eyes lit up. "Really?" Both of her parents nodded happily. "Yay! I have a mommy and a daddy!" she yelled then hugged Derek. He picked her up and smiled. Addison walked toward them and reached over to take Gigi.

"Come on squirt. Let's get you cleaned up, and then you know what we are going to do this afternoon."

"Yes, Unca Derek, I mean Daddy." she smiled at this "Is going to help the doctor fix me. Right?"

"Right, and I am not going to let anything happen to you. Okay?" Derek said lovingly. He spoke to Georgie, but looked at Addi. She nodded and unconsciously pulled her daughter closerto her.

-Scrub room-12:00 - Derek's POV-

I stand and watch as they prep. Georgie for her surgery. I start to wash my hands, then my forearms, and then my elbows. Making sure I get every inch clean. I hear a knock on the door and see Addison come in. She gives me a small smile. "Are you going to scrub in?" I ask. I knew that I could get her in, especially with her reputation.

She shook her head. "No, I can't watch them cut into her. I know that sounds retarded, it's just that she's not just a patient to me, she is my daughter."

I've dried my hands off by now and I am just staring at her. I walk towards her, but she backs away. "Derek you will have to scrub again." Not paying attention I grab her around her waist and pull her to me. "Then I will scrub again." I run my hand through her hair and sigh. "Addi I promise to take care of our daughter." She pulls back and looks into my eyes. "Are you going to be okay? I don't have to scrub in if you need me."

She smiles a genuine smile and shakes her head. "No I need you in there with her. I will be fine." She places her soft hand on my cheek. She leans in and kisses me softly, I begin to deepen it, but she pulls away. "Go save our daughter."

I nod and turn back to wash again. "I promise to take care of her Addi."

She stops to look at me. "I know you will."

-O.R.- Derek's POV-

"Okay Georgie, we are going to give you some medicine that is going to make you sleepy, then you are going to take a long nap." said the anesthetist.

"Where's my mommy?" she asks on the verge of tears.

I walk over to her and look at her. "Georgie it's me, daddy. You are going to be okay, I promise. When you wake up you can see mommy. Okay?"

She nodds. "Okay daddy. I love you." she whispers as she becomes sleepy.

My hearts jumps, she just told me that she loves me, I almost want to cry. "I love you too." I whisper as she closes her small eyes. Taking a deep breath I say calmly. "Okay people lets get started."

-Surgery Waiting Room- Addison's POV-

It's been four hours, and I haven't heard a thing! Why can't someone just tell me what is going on? I guess I know how my patient's families feel, and let me tell you it is not good. I have tried reading, watching television, and even sleeping but nothing is working. I should march into that O.R. and demand an explanation. Although Derek would probably kick me out, and then I would really look like an insane person. I see Izzie walk towards me, and I am relieved to see a familiar face.

"Hey, have you heard anything yet?"

"No, I am still waiting." I say as I twidle my thumbs.

Izzie reaches over and takes my hands in hers. "She is going to be okay."

For some reason when she said it seemed like she was telling the truth. I could not count the times people had told me that today, but right then I believed it.

-Surgery Waiting Room-1 hour later-

Derek emerges from behind the swinging doors and looks over at Addison. She looks into his eyes that are emotionless. All she could think was that she had lost her little girl. She walked to meet him halfway. "Well," she said anxiously.

"She pulled through like a champion." He said as his smile crept across his face.

Addison let out a breath she had been holding. She grabbed him and pulled him to her burrying her head in his shoulder. "Thank you, thank you." she whispered.

"No problem." He said softly. "Do you want to see her?" Addison wiped her eyes and nodded vigorously. They walked hand in hand to the recovery ward. "Now she is still grogy, but she should be fully awake here in a little while."

"Derek I know how this works." she said with a hint of a laugh.

"Yeah, yeah I know you know everything." He said happily.

"That's right, and don't forget it." She laughed at his face, then slowly opened the door to Georgie's room.

"Mommy?" Georgie said sleepily.

"I'm here baby." she said as she took Georgie's small hand.

"I had a dream."

"You did, what was it about?"

"You and daddy had a baby. I had a baby brother." As she said this her little eyes fluttered shut.

Derek and Addison both felt very uncomfortable, and didn't know what to say. "So when do you want me to help you move some of your stuff into the house?" he asked changing the subject.

"Um...I am having some of it shipped to your house this Friday, and she should come home Sunday, so I guess this Saturday. Is that okay with you?"

"Yeah, Saturday sounds fine."

-Saturday- Derek's house-

Georgie had been healing great. She had had all the nurses wrapped around her little pinky. She even convinced one of them to put on a pink bandange instead of white. Derek had requested the day off so he could help Addie unpack all of their stuff, and boy did they have a lot of stuff. "Good grief Addi, did you ship the whole appartment." Derek grunted as he picked up yet another box and carried up the stairs to Georgie's room.

"Ha ha, you think you are so funny, well your not. So hush and get another box."

"Yes mam." he gave her a mock salute and marched downstairs.

Three hours later they had completly unpacked all of Georgie's room and had it set up for her. Next they started to work on Addi's. Derek sat on the bed and began to unpack a box of clothes while Addison worked on the bathroom. "So where was this when we were married?" He asked holding up a skimpy little black neglage. "This is definantly Victora's Secret issue." He said with a chuckle.

Addison walked out of the bathroom and looked at what he was holding up. She ran over to him and tried to take it away. "You little pervert. You would unpack my underwear box." He laughed and grabbed the box running across the hall to his room. "Derek, give them back now!" she yelled as she chased him.

"Never!" he laughed evily. Addi glared at him and he started to calm down. "Okay, as long as you tell me when you got this."

"Fine, but will you give the box back once I tell you?" he nodded and she sighed. "Izzie bought it the night we went out on our date. I stuck it in the box once I got here, so I would remember to get rid of it. Happy now?"

Derek just stared at her. "Were you wearing this that night?"

"Yes, now can I please have it back?" she asked sticking her hand out for it.

"You know the good thing about us?" Addison just stood there waiting for him to explain. "I've seen you naked, and now I've seen this so it doesn't take much energy to picture you in this." He knew this would simply irritate her more, which is exactly what he wanted.

"Derek Matthew Sheppard I am going to kill you!" she dove across his bed to get him, but he was too quick. He came behind her and pinned her to the bed. He stratled her and stared into her eyes. They both breathed shallow breaths. "Derek," she whispered. He placed his finger to her lips, then leaned in and kissed her hard. They kissed over and over, each time they wanted more. Things were quickly getting out of hand. Addison couldn't let this happen, not again. "Derek,"

"What?" he asked breathless.

"I...I..." she looked into his dark eyes. "I have a boyfriend. We haven't been together, but we have dated for a long time. His name is Brian Harris, and he is a lawyer in New York. I ... I wanted you to know." Derek just stared at her with hurt in his eyes. He moved off of her and sat next to her on the bed. "You had Meredith, and I needed someone. We were divorced, I never thought I would see you again. I thought you hated me." she said sadly."He is coming to Seattle for a week, we are supposed to see each other." She looked down at her hands, then up at him. "I'll break it off with him if you want me to."

"No, don't do that." he sat quietly. "I am going to go for a walk." he said softly.

Addison sat on the bed and sighed. How did he not know how much he was hurting her. All he had to do was say "Yes, stop seeing him." and she would have in a minute. Now all she could do was to try and move on, again, but this time would be harder than the last.
