((Here's a new story for ya guys! I got this idea when listening to "Honesty, Write me a list." By: Rodney Atkins. Such an awesome, but anyways. I was like, what makes a good relationship? I asked a few people and I was like, maybe that could have repaired Addison/Derek's relationship. Very random I know… But, Then I was like, MARK! What if Mark tried to win Addison back? And he had to work on a few things, who would help him? I thought of Izzie and how she changed Alex and BOOM. Fanfic. I hope y'all like it! It's about 5 am so I hope it doesn't sound too tiring! Please Read and Review!))

Changing Fate

Prologue

Izzie headed into work a little late knowing she'd probably have to pay the price for it too. Bailey was on the warpath ever since Cristina got away with, well not murder. She pulled her scrubs over her head and heard Bailey cough slightly behind her and she spun around.

" I am so sorry! The cookies too awhile…to..." She trailed off seeing the look on Dr. Bailey's face and then held out a bag of cookies. "For you?" She said sheepishly.

"You are 15 minutes late…Because of cookies Stevens? I can't believe you!" Bailey grabbed the bag of cookies from her and headed out of the locker room before turning. "By the way, Your with Dr. Sloan today. Have fun!" She opened up the bag and headed out of the locker room letting the door click shut behind her.

Izzie groaned and sat down on the bench. She'd been working with Mark for the past week, every single shift, every hour. It was pissing her off, HE was pissing her off. But at least he let her do stuff. Last week he let her stitch up a woman's face who had a glass mirror shattered in her face. Of course he was standing behind her the whole time but that was better than nothing!

She got up and slammed her locker door shut before turning and see Mark there and jumped slightly.

"Damn, I missed the model dressing? I always have bad timing." Mark started out and leaned against the doorframe crossing his arms. "Your late…that calls for lunch on you right?"

Izzie took a deep breath and stuck her hands into her pockets moving up to Mark and then stood there. "Excuse me." She said lightly, not looking at him.

"For what? About not letting me see you dressing? It's okay, I've seen your ads."

"Oh, okay you've GOT to be kidding me right?" Izzie had had pretty much enough and she looked up at him. "Will you lay off the sexual sarcasm? No wonder Dr. Montgomery isn't with you anymore. You lost her you know that right? You may walk around here all macho and I do hear you singing Sexyback in the hallways when you think no one's listening well guess what. You won't be all hot and macho when your 70 so enjoy these days Mr. McSteamy. Get laid all ya want. Because when your 70, you'll just be old and alone. And Addison…She'll probably be married again to someone better. In fact, I know she has a date next week with the Pediatric Doctor over at Mercy West." Izzie knew she was hitting close to home when that smirk on his face turned into a frown.

She held up a hand when he started to speak. "I don't want to hear it. You know what I overheard Addison tell Callie last week? That she missed the old you. The you in New York. But don't let what I'm telling you stop you from being a pompous ass. Now please…get out of my way." Izzie pushed past him and walked out the door.

The nerve of that man made her want to kick every single male ass in the hospital. She saw Alex up ahead who was coming towards her and she shot him an 'Izzie' look and it said for him to back the hell off. She got onto the elevator and ignored Mark coming after her. She pushed the button on the elevator but Mark had slid into the elevator after the doors shut and hit the stop button.

"First of All Dr. Stevens you are my subordinate, my comments should be taken with a smile and a laugh. Second of all, you have just earned yourself a run to Starbucks. Third of all, Addison…Addison's a subject we will not speak about."

Izzie finally turned and looked at him. For once he sounded so serious. The look on his face could only be read as angriness and worried all wrapped up into one.

"Fourth of all…does she really have a date?"

That question was something she didn't expect him to ask and she blinked a few times. "Excuse me?"

"Does…Does she really have a date?" Mark crossed his arms and was looking everywhere but at her.

Izzie knew she had 2 options. She could pay the guy back and make something up huge or tell him the truth.

"No, but she was asked out. She said she'd think about it…Dr Bailey brought you up and she said she missed you. I wasn't supposed to hear that last part though, so don't go running off your mouth." Izzie clipped her pager to the side of her scrub pants and then looked back up at him. Normally his eyes would be watching that movement but he wasn't.

Mark had his back to her and pushed the stop button again to get the elevator to move. As it dinged open he turned to Izzie. "I want to change for her. But she wants what I left behind, How do you get that back again?" It was an honest question and he got off the elevator making the way to the first patient's room.

Izzie got off but didn't follow him. She stood there not really sure if what happened on the elevator reaaaaaally even happened. Did he just inadvertently ask her for help? Could she even help him? She shook her head a little not sure and then walked down the hall going into the patients room.

The rest of the day flew by with Mark patiently teaching her, not once did he throw a comment her way and it freaked her out. He even let her do another suture and take care of a patient all by herself. By being nice to her and showing her a different side she knew he wanted her help and she waited for the right moment to lay it all out on the table.

That moment just happened to be lunch.

Mark was in the cafeteria sitting at a table, his patient's charts all out in front of him. Normally he'd be in his office but he was leaving the moment open for Addison to walk in. She never did if she knew he was in there, but every other day he'd give it another try.

He saw Stevens from the corner of his eye and started to smirk before erasing it off of his face, putting that serious, I'm so sad, look back on his face. She had got to him that morning but not as bad as he let on. He knew had to change and he really didn't know how and he knew she'd break down and try to help him. It was during that she was trying to help him that he'd get her into bed.

Every girl loved to be a rescuer. Loved to change a man. He would change for Addison but why not get some booty on the way? Mark loved Addison but each day she didn't talk to him or ignored his looks he felt himself getting angrier and angrier. What else did she want from him?

He sold his practice, gave away his apartment and moved everything to Seattle for her and it wasn't enough. He wanted another chance but with her acting like she was he didn't see how. That's where he wanted Izzie to come in.

Mark wanted Izzie to show him how to get Addison's attention back on him and maybe make her fall back in love with him. He didn't know for sure if Addison still loved him, or the idea of changing him. So he wanted to try and change for her. Sleeping with Izzie was just a side bargain that he really wanted.

"Dr. Sloan?"

Mark looked up seeing the person of his thoughts standing right there in front of him and he closed his files. "Dr. Stevens?" He said politely and then nodded to a chair. "Sit down."

Izzie instead just stood there. She knew her friends were over on the sidelines wondering why she was near the beast. If she sat down with him, they would give her more crap. In fact, she could hear them talking about them now. She ignored them and took a step closer.

"You really want Addison?" Izzie asked and tilted her head crossing her arms. The girl could have some doubts, especially about this guy.

His reply didn't even miss a beat. "Yes."

"Why?"

That one stumped him and he hesitated. This was getting a little too personal. "Because… I love her and I want her back." Mark laughed slightly. "Why else?"

"Annnnnnd wrong. If you want my help, if you really really really want Addison back by, let's say…Christmas Which is about 29 days away, Your going to have to be honest with me and her. So tell me, why do you want her back?" Izzie leaned down and opened up a chart pretending to look at it.

Mark leaned forward and took a deep breath; He could smell her strawberry shampoo. "Mmmm, you smell like strawberries, Chocolate covered cherries are my favorite…But Chocolate covered strawberries would be nice."

"Mark Sloan!" Izzie snapped and took a step away moving across the table. This was going to be harder then she thought. "Why do you want Addison back?"

"I love her." Mark sighed when Izzie just shot him the look and then handed her a chart. "Because I miss her and I do, really love her." There, that was all the honesty he'd give her today. "Take this to the lab…when you get the results page me."

Izzie stood up and opened it up. "Allright…I'll help you. With both things. Let's meet tomorrow in your office at around 8ish?" She turned to walk away.

"I'll clear my desk for you, literally. I'll take plenty of notes…"

Izzie rolled her eyes as she walked away.

GA

"So he really wants to change for me?" Addison asked not looking up from her computer screen. She knew Izzie was standing in the doorway.

"Yep! He cornered me on the Elevator Addison, it was quite sad. I think he's confused if he's serious or not." Izzie moved in from the door way and shut the door. She and Addison had been friends for about 3 weeks and tonight was the first time she had been invited into Addison's office to talk about something other then work; But when Izzie had come up to her today and said, "Mark asked for help with you." She invited Izzie immediately over for details.

Addison stopped typing and frowned, then took a deep breath. Just when she had thought she'd gotten rid of him, he'd suddenly be back on her ass pushing his sex appeal down her throat. She then turned from the computer screen looking at her. "Are you going to help him?"

"Well, yeah. You guys love each other." Izzie laughed at the look on Addison's face. "You know you love him. I know it, everyone knows it. You have every right to be ignoring him though…for now. Sooner or later though, let's just say you can't fight fate."

"We're not fate." Addison rolled her eyes and turned saving her document. "I'm his monthly obsession."

"That's lasted 13 years Addison?"

Addison was caught with that one and she laughed. "Iz, He never loved me all 13 years. We pretty much hated each other. I was the bitch who took his best friend and he was the man who literally tried to sabotage our relationship. We only knew each other because Derek forced us and now look at him and look at me. I'm broken and he's the biggest man whore…you can't change that. He's sex…He's all about it."

"Well, Maybe I can help that. I'm going to try Addison, because…" Izzie trailed off thinking. "Because…Well I don't know yet, but he asked and he's certainly going to get what he asked for and more. I just… I thought you might want to know. Give you a heads up. We'll be able to see how serious Dr. McSteamy is about all of this. Trust me. Just…keep your eyes open and watch." Izzie waved at her and then turned heading out of her office.

Addison watched her leave and rubbed her neck. This wouldn't last long, not if she knew hotshot Mark Sloan from New York. She thought about Izzie's comments and hated the fact that she was right. She missed Mark, she was once in love with him but he had hurt her when he slept with that woman and she refused to go back. She couldn't. It'd hurt too much. She let out a breath and laughed a little. She was worried about nothing.

The day Mark Sloan changed would be the day the impossible happened.

((What do you guys think:D I was thinking this story would be about how Izzie pairs up with Mark to try and change him and win Addison back. Don't worry along the way there will be twists and turns. Anyways, Please Review! )
