Country Kind Of Love
LoveLastsForever: Hi, I'm glad you don't hate me for that last chapter but I'm really not sure if they'll make it through, at least not just yet… idk...
Jennifer: You rock! That was a great idea and it'll be perfect to mess things up a little more :D THANK YOU!
Addison-fan: I just realized I should have said he's a doctor so he could work at the hospital too… meh, but he'll stir things up enough! I'm glad you don't mind him showing up!
Guest: Yeah, I feel so bad for Derek! BUT we need some drama, even if it makes him unhappy...
NetflixPerson01: What's the other story? :D I'm really glad you didn't expect this because I was worried it would've been so obvious.
Lena-Prince08: I totally hated Derek's mom on the show (yep, actually saw that episode) so I'll rewrite her completely when she makes an appearance in this story :D Yeah, but Addison's fiancé is there now so things might be getting interesting soon.
Em: Becaus life isn't perfect so this story should reflect reality, shouldn't it? :D I'm sorry about the fiancé but now maybe she'll give him another chance, never know...
Country Kind Of: :D :D :D sorry! But now you're all updated ;)
And to everyone else, I'm hoping people are still reading, even though the fluff is on vacation...
Chapter 11
"Excuse me?" The tall, dark haired man said when he came to stand in front of them, "I'm looking for my fiancé and I was told that someone here could help me find her, she's a surgeon here."
"Of course," Derek and the other two turned around to face him, "what's her name?"
"Addison Montgomery." The man gave them a smile and Derek just stared at him in disbelief, he felt as if his entire world had come crashing down.
All three of them were standing there, just gaping at the other man in complete shock. Had he really just said that his fiancé was Addison Montgomery, as in Derek's Addison?
"Hey, what are you guys doing?" Addison came around the corner and had not yet seen what the other three were staring at but when she finally saw him she felt like someone had knocked the wind out of her. "Jason," she gasped, covering her mouth with her hand.
"Hi, Addie." He gave her a smile, which turned into a smirk when he saw the look on her face. "Long time no see, honey."
"So this is true?" Derek turned around to look at her, no longer shocked but now he looked like a kid whose puppy just died. "He's your fiancé?"
"No, well, technically…" She started but he only shook his head and walked away. "Derek, please." With one last glare at Jason she wanted to hurry after her boyfriend but was quickly stopped by Mark, who had started to walk after Derek. "Don't, Addison." He told her and looked at her like she was the anti Christ, Preston following the both of them.
"Jake, what the hell are you doing here?!" Addison was angry but she just felt like running after Derek so she could explain everything to him.
"Don't tell me you didn't miss me." He smiled smugly and took a step towards here. "So, was that your boyfriend? It's nice to see that you have a hobby…"
"Go to hell, Jason." She tried to blink her tears back when she turned around to leave but he stopped her by grasping her arm.
"Addie, I came here to take you back home with me."
Just as Addison was about to say something Miranda Bailey walked towards them, "Leave, this area is for surgical staff only." She saw him open his mouth but he never got the chance to say anything, "I can call security or you can just leave voluntarily."
"Fine." He let go of Addison's arm. "I'll see you tonight." And with this he turned around and walked away.
"So, is he really," Miranda started and Addison only nodded, tears streaming down her cheeks. "So you're engaged?"
"Was engaged." She sighed. "I have to look for Derek."

Later that night Addison felt completely drained, whenever she had seen Derek either Preston or Mark had made sure that she wouldn't talk to him but she just wanted a chance to explain all of this, explain to him that she no longer was engaged and that she had tried to put as much distance between her and Jason as possible but deep down she knew that he would still be hurt because she hadn't told him, hadn't even mentioned it and now Jason was here, in Kansas and at the hospital and she couldn't stop crying.
"Addison." Perfect, she thought when she looked up and there he was, just sitting in the lobby, apparently waiting for her.
"Go away, Jason, I mean it." She had wiped her tears away and just glared at him. "I don't want you here."
"Oh, what kind of a welcome is that? I come here, looking for my fiancé because I thought things were going great, then I come home from work one night and all your stuff is gone, all you left was the ring."
"Yeah, that was my hint as to the engagement is off. How the hell did you even know where I was?" She knew there was no chance he had called her best friend, Savannah, because she would have scratched his eyes right out.
"Your mother."
"Of course. You can tell Bizzy that I'm not marrying you, that I am not coming back to New York and that I want the both of you to just stay out of my life!" Without waiting for a response she walked towards the door quickly because all she wanted was to just explain everything to Derek.

Addison was sitting on Derek's porch. Even though she knew where he had his spare key she had figured that she probably was about the last person he wanted in his house right now so she had decided to wait outside. When she saw his car, she grew even more nervous but then he walked up the porch steps and just blankly looked at her.
"Derek, can we talk?" She asked quietly and got up from her chair.
"You're engaged, there's nothing left for us to talk about." She could hear the pain in his voice and it broke her heart because it was all her fault.
"I'm not engaged, Derek, at least not anymore. I told you that I was engaged once and that I freaked out and ran as far as I could and it's the truth because that's how I ended up here."
"Don't, Addison. Don't pretend like you told me because you didn't. You made it sound like it was ages ago and then this guy shows up and asks for his fiancé. I feel like the biggest idiot for believing we ever had something special."
"Please don't—"
"No, don't." Derek shook his head and unlocked the door in front of him. "I'm done, Addison. He's your fiancé and you didn't say a word, nothing. So I'm done. You don't have to explain anything to me." And with that he walked through the door and closed it behind him.
Addison stood there on his porch, feeling like someone had ripped her heart in little pieces and like she couldn't breathe anymore.

"So, a fiancé, huh?" Miranda Bailey sat down next to Addison, who was once again sitting on one of the benches outside of the hospital the next night. Addison was already done for the day but Miranda was just starting in an hour.
"Yep, a fiancé." Addison wiped her tears away and turned to face her friend. "Ex fiancé, but fiancé nevertheless…"
"What happened?"
"That's a really long story." She sighed. "He's never been the faithful type, and I thought that I really didn't mind because I was never completely sure. We got engaged because that's the right thing to do after being together for a few years." She noticed the look on Miranda's face, "yeah, wouldn't do it again, but one night he came home and when he kissed me he smelled like perfume, there was lipstick on his collar. And it was all such a complete cliché and even though I had thought that maybe I didn't mind because at the end of the night he still came home to me, in that moment I realized that I'm the biggest idiot on the planet. It wasn't that I was so hopelessly in love with him that I decided that it didn't really matter but because I thought it wouldn't feel the way it did. But when he kissed me and wanted to sleep with me, probably after just having had sex with someone else, I felt sick. I knew that I couldn't do this anymore and told him I was going for a walk. So after walking around New York City most of the night, in heels nonetheless, I came to the solution that I needed to leave."
"And then you came here."
"And then I came here and yeah…"
"I'm really sorry about what happened." Miranda gave her friend a slight smile.
"Don't be, I'm just so sorry about hurting Derek…"
"Give him time, maybe he'll come around."
"I doubt it. He said we're done and I can't even blame him. I just never thought Jason would ever come out here but damn my mother for telling him."
"Why did your mother tell him where you were after all that happened?"
"Because to her what he did is normal. It's something that happens, that you never talk about but it's completely acceptable. I grew up with my father cheating on my mother with numerous women and with my mother's countless affairs with her tennis or golf instructor and whoever else was there…"
"Geez, where are you from?!"
"Connecticut." Addison had to laugh slightly. "I've never felt about anyone like I feel about Derek. And I never thought I'd ever find anyone who could make me this happy…"
"Have you tried talking to him again?"
"Nope, he didn't come to work today." Addison ran her fingers through her hair. "I'm just trying to avoid Jason because I know he wants to talk to me to get me to move back to the city, which is completely ridiculous…"
"So he's not giving up, is he?"
"I'm sure this isn't even about me personally or because he is so very sorry and so in love with me but because he wants to prove something to himself…"
"Talk to Shepherd. Or at least to Burke and Sloan, they might understand. But maybe you should work everything out with your fiancé before you do that." Miranda got up. "I'm really sorry, Addison."
"Thank you." She gave her friend a weak smile and watched her walk away.
I have thought about just ending the story here but then I realized that I love Addek just a little (a LOT) too much to do that so there will be more updates...
Do you think they'll get through everything or will Addison give her fiancé another chance and go back to New York with him?
Reviews are love :)
