The Thing About Love
"Addison, please... Please don't leave like this. Not like this." Callie was trying to convince Addison to stay at Seattle Grace, but was not having any luck. Addison was standing by the door. Her bags were packed and in her car. She was heading to the door ready to leave Callie's apartment. They were both in tears. Callie could not stand there and let the woman she loved just walk away. She rushed over and stood in front of the door, not letting Addison open it. "Callie move!" Addison yelled. "No... No I'm not moving until we talk about this."
"There is nothing to talk about. Just let me leave."
"Let you leave? No, I can't. Not like this. I love you and I want to be with you."
"You should have thought of that before." Addison took a step back away from Callie. Tears were streaming down her face, making her mascara run. She looked Callie in her eyes. "Callie... It's over." She grabbed the door handle and forced Callie out of the way. Callie bounced to the side and placed her hands on the door as it closed. She fell to her knees, sobbing. She wondered how things got to that point.
(FLASHBACK era season 3)
It had been a long and dreary day. Patients were dropping in continously. Seattle Grace got slammed, but no matter how stressful the day became Addison and Callie new how it would end. Addison had been stuck in surgery all afternoon and she hadn't seen Callie since lunch. It was 6pm and her shift was finally over. While she was changing back into her clothes, she decided to text Callie. "Hey sugarbutt, I'm finally done! Where are we meeting?" Addison read over the message several times, each time it made her heart flutter. She had found the person that made her so incredibly happy. When she thought about Callie, nothing else mattered. She was in love with Callie.
She pushed send and anxiously waited for Callie to text her back. She took of her scrub top and through it in her locker. She then grabbed her tight fitting, short-sleeved, black sweater. She then sat down and put on her heels. As she strapped her heels on, her mind started to wander. An enormous sense of fullfilledness overwhelmed her and her heart skipped a beat. She then walked over to the full length mirror which was across the locker room and checked herself out. "Hair... makeup... check." She then did a model stance pose and proceeded to smerk. "Addison you are one hot fox." She said to herself.
Just then her phone vibrated. It was Callie. She raced over to her phone, which was on the bench and read the message. "Hey sweet cheeks! Bad news, Bailey just called me in to consult but it doesn't sound like anything major. I should be 15 mins." Addison texted back.
"Aww I was so excited to see your sexy ass. But ok, I'll wait across the street." Callie wrote back. "Perfect. See you there =P."
Addison threw her phone in her purse and headed to the door. Before she walked out, she took another look in the mirror, removing any fuzz and making sure she looked perfect. She took a deep breath, and headed across the street.
Callie was a little bit annoyed that she had to stay, because Bailey knew she was off. But being the trooper that she is, she helped. "Dr. Torres, we have a 48 year old female. She was walking down the stairs at her house when she slipped and landed on her ankle. There is swelling and bruising. All vitals are normal but I just wanted you to take a look at her ankle just to rule out anything serious."
"Ok... Let's see here..." Callie proceed to check out the ankle of the patient and found it was nothing more than a sprain. "Mrs. Stone, it looks like you have nothing more than a sprain. You need to ice it for 20 minutes every hour and keep it elevated to make the swelling go down. In about two weeks you should be good to go."
"But what about the crack I heard? I mean it was really loud and scary."
"Crack?" Dr. Bailey interrupted. "She says it has been throbbing nonstop and that she heard a crack."
"I assure you it's nothing serious, joints tend to crack when under pressure. You just need to make sure you are more careful when walking down the stairs."
"So it's nothing serious?"
"You'll be fine." Callie winked and signed off on her chart. "Thank you Dr. Torres." Bailey told her as she walked out of the room. "No problem." Callie mumbled. She was done. She briskly walked through the halls to the elevator, hoping no one would stop her. As she was waiting for the elevator she discreetly checked her phone and saw a message. "Waiting for you =P." She smiled and just then the elevator doors opened. She definitely was not prepared for who was inside. "Dr. Torres."
"Dr. Shepard."
"In a hurry?"
"No, why would I be in a hurry?"
"Well I thought you would be because I saw Addison fly outta here and we all know that you two never leave this building without each other." Callie tried not to smile because she did not want Derek to think he was right. But it was true. Callie and Addison were never apart outside of Seattle Grace. "Well, she was off, and I was supposed to be off, but Bailey needed my help so Addison left, and now I'm here... talking to you."
"I'm sure I'm at the top of your list."
"Yeah." Callie raised her eyebrows intent on making Derek realize that she did not really want to talk to him. "Hey Callie, can I ask you something?" Callie took a deep breath, preparing herself for what Derek could possible say. "Umm sure, I guess."
"Well, I've noticed you and Addison have gotten pretty close recently and well I've never seen Addison so content with a woman before. Is this really real or are you testing it out. What's really going on?"
Callie chuckled at the thought of Derek concerned about Addison's love life. "You... you really want to know what's going on between me and Addison?"
"Curious... Inquiring minds want to know."
"Well inquiring minds should mind their business and stop pretending like they actually care when in reality they are snooping for a reason to talk about Addison." Derek then laughed.
"Trust me, I have a million things I could say about Addison all having nothing to do with you and this psuedo relationship you two have."
"Then why are you questioning me about it."
"Because... as much as I don't like to admit it Addison is a big part of my past and she strayed because of me. If you are going to be with her, you need to be there for her."
"Ah, this is really awkward. I don't know if I can talk about this... this subject with you." Derek nodded his head. As the elevator doors opened he walked out. Before the doors shut he turned around to give Callie one more piece of advice. "I wasn't there. Be there for her or it might not end well."
The elevator doors shut and Callie took another deep breath. The last person she wanted to take advice from was Derek Shepard. However, she knew he was right. The elevator doors opened and Callie rushed to the locker room to change her clothes. She texted Addison to tell her she was on her way. As she left the locker room, she looked quickly in the mirror to make sure she looked perfect. She did. She pulled open the door and darted across the street.
Addison had been waiting for about 30 minutes and had had several drinks already. Callie burst through the door and began searching for Addison. Addison had been deep in conversation with another doctor who was sitting next to her. The other doctor was leaving when Callie saw them. She decided to sneak up on her. She quietly walked up behind her. She placed both her hands on Addison's sides and leaned in and whispered in her ear. "Hey sexy!" She breathed. Addison jumped a little and turned her head. She began to smile, turned around and stretched her arms towards Callie for a hug. Callie gave Addison a quick kiss on the cheek and sat in the barstool next to her. Addison was so happy to see her. "I missed you."
"I missed you so much too. Ugh, I was scared that I almost wasn't going to be able to leave."
Addison then wrapped her arms around Callie's shoulders, placing her hands behind her neck and leaned in. "Me too." She pressed her lips against Callie's, then pulled away. "Your lips are so luscious." Callie placed her hand on Addison's knee. "You know what else is luscious?" Callie then winked at Addison and Addison began to blush. "Callie... you little devil."
Addison and Callie were both extremely hungry, and decided to get Chinese take-out and headed back to Callie's apartment. When they got there all they could think about was ripping off each other's clothes but they wanted to see how long they could resist, at least to eat first. "No Christina?" Addison asked.
"She's on... all night." Callie smerked at Addison. They sat down at the table and began eating. Callie was debating whether she should tell Addison what Derek had told her. They had a very honest relationship, and promised each other that no matter what they would always tell the other how they felt. Callie wanted to tell, but was somewhat timid. She then decided she had to. "So guess who I ran into today, and who just had to give me relationship advice?" Addison chuckled and began to guess. "George? No, Mark ugh no he definitely doesn't have any advice on relationships. Umm, Izzie?"
"Derek." Addison raised her eyebrows surprised at the answer. "Derek... Derek gave you relationship advice?" Callie nodded. "What did he say?"
"It was very awkward, but he asked if there was something going on between us and then he told me that you left him because he wasn't there and that I should make sure I'm always there for you." Addison looked down at her food and began to play with it. She never told Callie why she cheated on Derek and she knew she would have to at some point. "Callie, there's something we need to talk about."
"Ok... shoot."
Addison took a deep breath, and looked Callie directly in her eyes. "I cheated on Derek... That's why he left New York. I slept with Mark and then Derek left me. And... I told you that he left and then Mark and I had a relationship because I was scared of what you would think. It was only one time before we split up and that's not the kind of person that I am. I---"
"Wait, hold on... You cheated on Derek?"
"Yes."
"Wha---why... why have I been believing that Derek left you and that's how you and Mark ended up together. I'm missing something."
"I wasn't completely honest with you. I wasn't sure of what you would think."
"Ok well... tell me now. The truth."
"Well, Derek was constantly working and I got lonely. Mark was there and we slept together. Derek caught us and he came here. Mark and I tried to have a relationship after Derek left. I actually believed that it would work, but then Mark cheated on me... That's when I came here to try and fix my marriage." Callie fell into a blank stare. She was shocked, and was confused about what to think. Addison revealing this secret almost made Callie look at her in a different light. She looked at Addison with an obvious confused look on her face. "Why did you wait so long to tell me? We've been dating for 5 months. Were you just never going to tell me?"
"No, no not at all. I wanted to. I really did. I just couldn't work up the nerve to. It's been awhile since I've dated anyone. I'm a little rusty."
"Yeah."
"Are you mad?"
"No, I could never be mad at you. I'm a little disappointed, but I think you thought I might think differently of you. But I don't."
"Really?"
"Yes, but just don't not tell me can never go wrong with being honest." Callie leaned in towards Addison and kissed her on the lips. Addison then placed her hands on Callie's face and embraced her. Callie threw her fork down and stood up. Addison stood up along with her and moved in closer. Callie wrapped her arms around Addison's body and they kissed passionately.
Things began to heat up. Callie tenderly took off Addison's top, and slowly un-did her pants. Addison then sliped off Callie's shirt, and started to kiss her neck. She then began taking off Callie's bra. They started kissing again...
As they are kissing, the walk over towards the bed. Callie slowly leans over Addison as she falls onto the bed. Callie crawls ontop of her. She grazes her hand up Addison's leg, to her thigh and grabs hold of her thong. She slowly pulls down the thong, and throws it onto the floor. Addison unbuttons Callie's jeans and helps her slide them off. They begin to kiss again. Callie starts messaging Addison's breasts, as Addison lay in ecstacy. She kisses Addison's neck and slowly moves down towards her breasts. The suction feel makes Addison begin to moan, and Callie starts moving her head further, and further down. She grabs hold of Addisons legs and spreads them apart. Callie gently kisses the inside of Addison's thighs, making her squirm. She then begins to slowly, and gently lick Addison's p*ssy. Addison grabs Callie's head and moans louder. Callie starts licking faster, and deeper. She flicks Addison's clit with the tip of her tounge. She takes her hands and continues to message Addison's breasts. Addison squirms moving her pelvis up and down. Her eyes roll back, and she lets out a big moan.
Callie then crawls up and begins to kiss Addison. She starts caressing Addison's body. Addison grabs Calli'es back, slowly moving her hands up and down. She moves her hands down further and gently grabs Callie's ass, smacking it. Callie starts to moan. Addison then flips Callie over onto her back and begins kissing her. She then starts kissing her neck, and works her way down. Kissing her chest, her stomach, and gets to Callie's throbbing pussy. Addison softly licks the roof of Callie's pussy, gently touching her clit. She begins to lick more, and more. As Addison is licking, she takes two of her fingers and places them inside Callie's pussy. She moves her fingers, in and out slowly and gradually going faster. Callie starts moaning even louder, her arms fling out to the sides and grabs the bedsheets. Addison keeps moving her fingers in and out of Callie's pussy, faster and faster. Callie starts squirming,
Addison repositions herself on her knees, sticking her ass in the air to gain momentom. In and out, in and out, in and out of Callie's pussy. Addison notices Callie's legs start quivering. Callie's pevlis starts to lift. Her legs spread wider. Callie then lets out a big moan. Addison softly kisses Callie's inner thighs and she catches her breath. Addison kisses, working her way back up to Callie's lips. She kisses her stomach, her chest, then her lips. Callie opens her legs and grabs Addison tight. Addison plops onto Callie.
They both breathed heavily, holding each other tight. Addison fell over to the side and faced Callie. She grabed Callie's hand and kissed it. "I think I'm in love with you." Callie still trying to catch her breath, turned her heard towards Addison and looked her in the eyes. "I don't think... I know." They kissed and laid there with no other care in the world.
