"I did it" Meredith said popping her head into Addison's office.
"Hey, did what?"
"Finished with Derek"
"You came all the way to the hospital to tell me you'd finished with Derek"
"I couldn't wait" Meredith said as she closed and locked the door behind her, she walked towards Addison holding her eye contact, she leant over the desk grabbed onto Addison's white lab coat and pulled her in for a kiss.
"Meredith"
"Don't interrupt me while I'm kissing you"
"I'm sorry but don't you think we have things to, discuss"
"I suppose we do" Meredith walked around to Addison and perched herself on the edge of her desk "I don't really know how this works"
"What the girl thing because I'm not really the person to ask"
"No not the girl thing, I think I can work that out but us, how does us work?"
"I...have no idea" Addison sighed.
"Come to my house tonight"
"What about your friends?"
"They're both in surgeries until the early hours, not that I'd care if they saw you anyway, people will have to find out eventually, its not like we're gonna post a notice on the bulletin board"
"I know that but, how are we going to tell people"
"Don't think about that for now, just come to my place tonight, OK!"
"OK!"
Meredith leaned in and gave Addison another kiss then she made her way back home.
As she stepped into the elevator Cristina jumped in just in time.
"Hey, sorry I didn't call, so what happened with Satan?"
"Don't call her Satan"
"Why do you look happy, Mer, what happened?"
"I finished with Derek"
"And you're happy about that?"
"Well its not the best thing thats ever happened but.."
"What did you do?"
Meredith smirked to herself.
"You didn't, y'know, with Addison did you?"
"No"
"Are you planning on.."
"Maybe"
"You are! I didn't know you had it in you"
"Me neither but last night after I called you, she kissed me, it was...interesting, intense, hot!"
"I get it Mer, it was good, so are you two a, thing now"
"We'll see what happens tonight but you have to keep quiet about this Cristina, you have a guilty looking face so please until I know what's going on, keep your big mouth shut!"
"OK Mer, your big gay secret is safe with me"
Meredith hit Cristina on the arm as they elevator doors opened and she stepped out "Bye Cris!"
Later that night…
"Doors open" Meredith shouted as the doorbell rang "I'm in the kitchen"
"Hey...so what's the plan?" Addison asked.
"Well.." Meredith said walking to meet Addison in the middle of the kitchen, wrapping her arms around her neck "I thought maybe we could have some wine, some chinese food and then make our way upstairs for...desert"
"Sounds, interesting"
About 3 hours later
Addison and Meredith lay with each other on the couch, Addison had her arm around Meredith twiddling with the ends of her hair.
"It's late, we should go to bed" Meredith said.
"Who said I was coming to bed with you"
"Me! Come on" Meredith stood up pulling Addison with her, they walked up the stairs and into Meredith's bedroom.
"Can I use your bathroom?" Addison asked.
"Yeah sure, go ahead"
Meredith stripped down to her underwear and climbed under the covers.
"Hey you" she said as Addison returned "Are you getting in?"
"Sure" Addison sat on the edge of bed, slipped of her dress and climbed under the covers. Meredith cuddled up to Addison, her hands nervously resting on her waist, feeling another woman's skin against hers was a whole new experience.
"We don't have to do anything tonight" Addison whispered "I just want to hold you"
Meredith looked up at Addison and smiled "Perfect" she said softly, they had one last passionate kiss then fell asleep.
The next morning the sun beamed through the gap in the curtains onto Addison's face. As she stirred she remembered where she was, she turned on her side and stared at the beautiful woman lying next to her. She looked at her watch, it was 6 in the morning.
"Mer" she whispered giving her a nudge.
"What.." Meredith groaned.
"I have to go, I have work in an hour, I need to change and I should probably leave before Izzie and Alex see me"
"Do you have to?"
"Yes, we can't tell them now, later today, we'll tell everyone"
"How?"
"It'll happen Mer, I promise you that"
"What are you plotting?"
"Nothing" Addison smirked.
"Addie"
Addison slipped her dress back on, grabbed her bag and kissed Meredith on her forehead.
"See you at work, it's your first day back so don't be late"
"Fine! See you later baby"
Addison quietly snuck out of Meredith's room, down the stairs and out of the front door. She walked up the driveway and the short way back to her car which she parked around the corner.
'Last night was perfect, I'll see you at work, Addie xx' Addison quickly text Meredith before she stepped into the hospital.
'Missing you already xx'
