Hi guys! This is my first long Greys fanfic, and I'm really excited to see where it goes, I hope you all really enjoy it and please leave me a review if you do and it really motivates me to keep updating!
Amelia couldn't stand it anymore she had to get out of there. Charlotte with her sad "I know what you're going through eyes". Because she didnt know what she was going through, and she didn't need her sympathy. Sheldon with his constant neediness and smoothering, acting as if she didn't have bigger things going on in her life. But she did have bigger things going on in her life, nothing to do with him. Addie with that look of concern, and worse, disappointment. She acted as though Amelia's choices were an attack against her personally, but it had bothing to do with Addie. But the concern and disappointment wasn't the worst bit, it was the guilt. The look as though to ask "Was it my fault?" But it had nothing to do with her, it's Amelia's life, no one elses. Being in LA any longer was going to kill her.
"They know what's going on" Amelia thought to herself. "Well not Sheldon, he doesn't know anything. But Addie and Charlotte know. I can tell from the look in their eyes. The same look people have been giving me since she was 14" Amelia stood up from the foot of the bed and started pacing. "It's not like I've ever come to work high, or drunk, I've never hurt anyone." Amelia was reasoning to herself out loud now. "I would never hurt anyone, I'm just dealing with things how I need to deal with them, I shouldn't have to explain that to anyone,"
"Amelia?" Crap. Addison must have heard her talking.
"What Addie?" She snapped back
"Amy chill, whats wrong you sound stressed?" Addison was doing that guilty look again
"Str..stressed, stressed? What makes you say that? I'm fine Addie, just leave me alone for fucks sake, I'm fine, okay! I'm great actually, better than great! I've decided I'm gonna go and stay in Seattle for a while, with Derek, probably. I've got a load of personal days saved up, so I'm gonna go up, see the kids, and Ryans gonna come up to so I can show him around, so yeah I'm fine, definitely not your problem to worry about."
"Amelia what! Where has this plan suddenly come from? You can't just up and leave, talk to me Amy, what's the matter?"
"Addie I've seen the way you and Charlotte look at me. You don't look at anyone else like that, or when you go out drinking until the early hours of the morning, you dont see a problem with anyone else's drinking, but mine? Mine is all your business isn't it? People drink Addie, it's normal!"
"Not alcoholics Amy, thats not normal,"
"I'm not a fucking alcoholic!"
"Amelia are you high right now? Drunk? You're not thinking straight. Have you even called Derek to ask him?"
"He's my brother Addie, whats he going to do, turn me away on the doorstep? I've packed my bag already, I need to leave for the airport now if I don't want to miss my flight."
"Amelia please don't do this, don't leave."
"Its already done Addie. I'll call you tomorrow." And Amelia picked up her bag and walked out without looking back. Addison stared at her as the door slammed, wondering what else she could have done.
I hope you liked it! Please leave a review if you did, along with any suggestions, I'm really excited for the fic!
