A/N: Okay, this didn't really take that long to write once I started writing, but it was the whole, I need to get ideas and shiz. Then I was thinking about adding something but didn't. Not much really happens in this chapter but I think it kind of needs to be here. There's one more chapter after this one and then the story is finsihed. Now I feel sad. Please review.
Enjoy
Addison had taken Archer's advice and stopped what she was doing with Noah. She had told Noah that she couldn't do it. She couldn't break up his family, couldn't be the adulterous bitch again. She just couldn't. She had decided to keep men out of her life. She was leaving her love life sleeping, leaving her single. It was all just too much for her. The only man that was going to be important in her life was Archer. He was the only one who really mattered.

Addison smiled as she cleaned the newborn baby up, weighing her after. The baby girl mewed softly, looking up at Addison with curious eyes. Addison smiled, putting the baby in a diaper before dressing her in a pink baby grow. Addison gently picked the baby up, turning and seeing Naomi stood there.
"Hey." Naomi smiled softly.
"Hey." Addison smiled back. "I'm going to take her back to her parents now."
"Okay." Naomi nodded. "It suits you, you know?"
"What does?" Addison looked at her friend.
"Holding a baby."
"Oh." Addison smiled softly. "I wish I had this." She sighed sadly. "I better get her back now." She gently carried the baby girl back to her parents, knowing she could have had it once.

"Life's a bitch." Addison sighed and plopped down on her couch next to Naomi, resting her head on Naomi's shoulder.
"I know." Naomi agreed and leaned her head on top of Addison's.
"Why can't it go our way for once?"
"I've no idea." Naomi gave a sigh.
"I should just turn lesbian." Addison mumbled. "Life would be so much easier without the penises."
Naomi laughed at her friend softly. "It would, but would it be as much fun?" She raised an eyebrow.
"That's a good point." Addison nodded. "Maybe keep them for that then."
"Good idea." Naomi laughed.
"It is, isn't it?" Addison grinned before laughing as well.
"We're such old prudes now." Naomi sighed. "I feel old." She whined.
"You're younger than me." Addison pouted.
"By four months." Naomi laughed.
"Still. Shush."
"Okay, okay." Naomi laughed again, thinking how good it was to have her best friend there with her.

Archer sighed, making himself a cup of coffee, downing it in one before placing the cup in the sink and wiping his mouth. He made his way back to his bedroom, stripping before walking into the bathroom and getting into the shower. He let the hot water relax his tense body, closing his eyes and dropping his head back slightly. Since Addison had called weeks before he had been worried about his baby sister. He had taken to calling her at least every other day to make sure she was alright. He missed her being in New York where he could see her and be her big brother.
Once Archer had gotten out of the shower he changed and pulled out his suitcase, putting clothes into it and zipping it up before pulling it off his bed. He grabbed his phone, dialling a number.
"Hello?" Addison's groggy voice floated down the phone.
"Hey, Ads." Archer smiled. "Did I wake you?" He glanced at his watch, trying to figure out what time it was for her.
"Yeah, I was having a lovely dream where I didn't have a brother who wakes me up at half five in the morning." She teased him.
"Oh shut up, Ads." Archer chuckled.
"So why have I been woken up so early?"
"Well, how do you feel about having someone stay for a while?" Archer carried his suitcase out to his car.
"Do I have a choice here?" Addison smiled in amusement.
"Not really." Addison laughed.
"When will you be here?"
"In a few hours."
"Okay. Do you want me to meet you at the airport?"
"No, I'll let you sleep." Archer laughed. "I love you, Ads."
"I love you too, Arch."

Archer relaxed himself into his seat on the plane. He felt happier that he was going to see Addison. He could make sure she was alright for himself. He could see how well she was doing. If he got the chance, he'd punch Kevin and Noah for what they'd done. He couldn't understand how guys could hurt her so much. It made him angry when he thought he wasn't there to protect her. Archer let out an angry sigh and closed his eyes, trying to get some sleep before he landed in LA.
-
When Archer arrived in LA he made his way straight to Addison's, smiling at his baby sister as she opened the front door. Addison smiled back at him before just falling into his arms, letting him hold her tightly as she buried her head into his chest.
"It's okay, Ads." Archer whispered soothingly and rubbed her back. "I'm here now."
