"Do you want me to stay with you until your dad gets home?" Derek asked Addison as they walked into her hallway.

"I don't know." She walked into the lounge and sat down on the couch, Derek close behind her.

"You shouldn't be alone right now." Derek sat next to her and took hold of her hand again.

"My dad's away again tonight."

"Come and stay with us. My mom with mother you, my sisters can tell you more embarrassing stories about me." He gave her a smile and got a small one in return. "Get some stuff and we'll go to mine."

"Okay." She nodded and stood up, walking up the stairs.

Half an hour later and Addison sat at the Shepherd's dining room table and was eating dinner with them. She smiled at the friendly banter, it made her feel more relaxed. Derek rolled his eyes at his sisters and smiled when he saw the look on Addison's face.

"So did you have fun today?" Kathryn looked at Derek and Addison.

"Well, I thought we did, but she says she won't let me take her again." He smirked.

"You made me go on that ride!"

"What ride?"

"Erm, Big Ben I think it was called."

"And you liked it really Ads." He rolled his eyes at her. "Even if you spent most of your time screaming."

"You would of if you had been made to go on it as well." She pouted.

"Whatever you say." He smirked and sat back in his chair. Kathryn shook her head at them and began to clean up, with help from the girls.

"I think I'll go take a bath." Addison stood up.

"I'll get you some towels." Derek smiled and stood up as well, following Addison up the stairs and getting her some clean towels, as she ran a bath. "Here." He smiled as he handed her the towels.

"Thanks." She smiled back at him.

"If you need anything, just shout."

"Will do." Derek smiled before leaving the bathroom and shutting the door behind him. Addison turned to the bath and stripped, before getting into the water.

About half an hour later, Derek walked past the bathroom and heard a scream. Immediately after the door opened, and Addison ran out. "What's wrong?" His voice was full of concern.

"There's a spider in there." She pointed to the bathroom.

"Where?" Derek walked in and Addison followed, pointing.

"There!"

"That?" He chuckled. "It's tiny."

"I don't care, I hate spiders!"

"Okay." He bent down and picked the spider up from the mat, before opening the window and throwing it outside. "All gone now." He turned around and realised she was stood in front of him, in just a towel, that stopped mid thigh. Her hair was wet and stuck to her neck and she held her towel up against her body safely. She just looked back at him, and he felt his jeans starting to become uncomfortable.

"Thanks." She shifted on the spot, realising what she was wearing.

"No problem." Derek took a step forward, feeling his jeans tighten even more, just by looking at her. "I'll let you...umm, finish...doing, whatever." He suddenly felt her lips on his, kissing him, her arms around his neck. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her close, his tongue slipping into her mouth.

A cough at the door pulled them apart and Derek looked up to see his mother stood there. "Are we done with the bathroom?" She raised an eyebrow.

"Yeah…" Derek took a step back from Addison who just looked at the floor.

"Okay then." Kathryn looked at them. "Can I use it now then?"

"Yeah." Addison gathered her clothes before they left the bathroom and Kathryn walked in, shutting the door behind her. Derek looked at Addison hesitantly. "Erm…" He started unsure of what to say.

"I'm just going to get changed." She pointed and walked towards the guest room, shutting the door behind her and sliding down it. All these feelings were rushing through her body, but she didn't want to get hurt. "I'm so stupid." She whispered and closed her eyes.

Derek stood on the landing and mentally cursed himself. He shouldn't have kissed her. Wait, no, she kissed him, she started the kissing, not him, so she must have wanted it, right? He was so confused. He quickly made his way to his room, wanting to get rid of the uncomfortable-ness in his jeans.

--

A little while later, Derek knocked on Addison's door; he wanted to apologize for making her feel uncomfortable. He hadn't seen her since and wanted to make sure she was alright. He waited for a response. A small 'come in' was heard and he opened the door, stepping in and closing the door behind him. "Hey." He smiled at her.

"Hey." She sat up on the bed.

"I just wanted to apologize if I made you feel uncomfortable earlier." He sat down on the bed as well. "I shouldn't have let it happen."

"It's okay." She shrugged.

"It's not if you felt uncomfortable." Addison just looked at him, she wasn't going to let him know that she had enjoyed it. "I'll erm, go." Addison nodded and he looked at her. "Sleep well." Derek stood up.

"You too." She watched as he walked towards the door. "Derek." He turned to face her, and she got off the bed.

"Yeah?" He watched as she walked towards him and kissed him again. Her arms once again went around his neck, and his went around her waist. Her tongue pushed against his lips, until he parted them, letting her tongue slip into his mouth. She moaned slightly and pressed her body against his. He kissed her back for a while before pulling away. "We shouldn't."

Addison looked up at him and pulled away completely. "I'm sorry, I should have know you didn't mean…" She began to ramble.

"Whoa!" He took hold of her arms, making her look at him. "Who said that I wasn't interested? I just don't think we should move fast here, I don't want you feeling uncomfortable. Let's take it slow, okay?" She looked up at him and nodded. "Okay, do you want to take it slow with me? You don't have to, we don't have to do this if you don't want to, it's your choice."

Addison just looked up at him. "I don't want to get hurt." Her voice was quiet.

"I won't hurt you, I won't make you do anything you don't want to do. I'm not going to hurt you intentionally, I promise." He smiled at her.

"Okay." She nodded. "I…I want to try it, between us, I'm trusting you."

"I know, and I don't plan on hurting you, I swear." He smiled and pulled her into his arms, dropping a kiss on her hair. Addison nodded and just let him hold her, her head resting against his chest. He just wrapped his arms tightly around her and smiled, holding her close.
