Love will conquer all

Maybe I do

Alex pov

I drove home as fast as I could. Getting into the house even faster, just to find Jo sitting on the coach looking nervous as hell. "Jo what were you thinking." I asked her, covering my hands with my face. Jo got up from the coach looking pissed. "Alex. I promised myself with what happened last time that I would never let it again to me ever again." She said, putting her hands on her hips. She thought I was pissed she defended herself.

"Well it was better you got to him before I did. I probably would have killed him." I admitted. I looked over to see her eyes where wide open. "You would do that for me. Why?" She asked, like an innocent child. Did she really not know how I feel for her. Why I was so hurt she got a boyfriend. That I acted like a child, because she wasn't with me.

"Shut up." I paused for a minute thing about what to say. What would Meredith say? Probably anything better than what would come out of my mouth. So the real question is what would Derek say? "Why wouldn't I?" I asked her. Jo still looked shocked as hell to hear the words coming out of my mouth.

"Jo, I have something I need to say." This is it. It's now or never. And I'm choosing now. "No, don't say it. " Jo interrupted. What? "You don't even know what I'm going to say." I said looking at her. She shook her head. "I think I do. Don't. I ruin everything good and I don't want to ruin what we have." I couldn't believe she think she could ruin our friendship. I will always love Jo. Even when I'm dead. I'm that in love with her.  I love her as much as Derek loves his hair products.

"No you won't, please let me speak." I paused for a minute to think of the exact words I wanted to say. "I don't hear anything." Jo spoke suddenly. Smartass. Did she really have to say that? "Shut up." I said, as a defense. Probably not the best thing to say to her right now, but oh well. I look to see that she was still smiling. Okay I didn't ruin it with telling her to shut up.

"Jo, I love you. I know I always will. You make me better. I'm a changed man because of you. And I know you have a husband, or did or whatever.it doesn't stop me from loving you. I love you no matter who you are, and we'll find a way to get married and start a family if that's what you want." I looked away from my hands to her. She was smiling the brightest smile I've ever seen in my life. And I've seen some pretty happy people.

And this was the moment I was waiting for, for what felt like forever. I then leaned in and kissed her.

Authors note: FINALLY! Jo and Alex are together! Well kinda. At least here they are. I still have a bunch of chapter's planned for this story. So anyway hope you enjoyed this.
