Chapter 20: A Thing

Magic. It was magic. She thought it was ridiculous to think that way about anything. She was a doctor for God's sakes but still. There was no other way to describe what this moment was. The world around them had vanished, faded away completely. All that existed was her and her lips and her touch. Everything was her.

The kisses had started off slowly but had grown passionate rather quickly. Both finally letting go of all they had been keeping in. Finally letting their feelings towards each other lose.

Addison let her hands roam down Aelwyne's sides and back. She could feel the intern shiver at her touch causing her to grin onto her lips. Aelwyne's hands remained tangled in her hair and she gently pulled at times but Addison did not mind at all. In fact she enjoyed it. Things kept heating up quickly, maybe a bit too quickly for it having been the first time they had kissed.

Addison pulled away grinning as Aelwyne hummed in disappointment and a frown grew on her face. The redhead giggled at the frown and wanted nothing more than to kiss it away. Just as she was leaning in her pager went off. The whine from the intern was prominent then making Addison laugh.

"Looks like I've been summoned." Addison said with a smile.

"You have to go, don't you?" Aelwyne pouted.

"Yes. I have to go but first let's fix that." Addison said, pointing at the intern's pouting face.

Leaning in quickly she crashed her lips against the brunette's. Her kiss was deep and fiery. Just as Aelwyne's stun wore off and she began to wrap her arms around her she pulled away grinning.

"Can you do my last post op? And do try to catch your breath and calm down before you see a patient." Addison said as she walked out laughing and closed the door behind her.

She never thought kissing someone would be like this. Never in her life had she imagined she would feel more complete, more whole just by being with someone else. She was soothing. She was calm. She was passion. She was everything. She, who had come into her life just a few months ago. She who had cheered for her. Who had stood by her. Who had defended her and taken care of her.

Her lips still tingled as she walked out of the on call room wide grin on her face and slightly flushed. She was a damned good kisser, that sweet woman with golden eyes. Aelwyne liked her and she liked Aelwyne. So everything in the world was just right. Life was full of moments and this one was by far the best one.

-CRASH-

"Oh I'm sorry, Doctor!" The nurse who had collided with her apologized.

"It's alright. Everything is alright. The world is alright." Addison replied with a smile and continued walking without a care in the world leaving a very confused nurse behind.

Aelwyne sat at the edge of the bed still trying to recover from the heavy make out session. Addison had left giggling after getting the page, the sound of her laugh still ringing in her ears. The redhead had asked her to do the last post op but to try and breathe and calm herself beforehand.

The intern was currently attempting to do just that. She was trying so hard to calm herself but the tingling and electricity everywhere Addison had touched her still lingered. She needed to do the post op and also she needed to talk to someone. She needed to share this because if not she would explode. She had just kissed her. She had just been in heaven. Addison liked her and she liked Addison. But maybe it was more than 'like' because the way she was feeling was not like anything she had ever felt before.
