Sam Bennett was never really a man of confrontation. He awoke the next morning and took notice that Mark Sloan was still at Addison's. Wasn't he supposed to leave last night? Sam wondered what Mark was still doing here and then it hit him. There was no denying that Sam possessed strong feelings for Addison. He understood that Mark and Addison had a history together, but there was no way that Mark could actually be staying in LA. Sam remembered the conversation they had and never really took Mark seriously, until that morning of course.

Addison slowly woke up as the sun peered into her bedroom. She smiled when she saw Mark with a cup of coffee in his hand. "This is ideal." Mark said again for the thousandth time. Addison took the cup of coffee from Mark's hand and took a sip. "Mmm, you're absolutely right." Addison smiled, got up and kissed Mark on the cheek and walked into the bathroom.

Sam was the first to arrive at Oceanside Wellness that morning. He looked around at the empty office; it was Naomi's office. Ever since the news of Maya's pregnancy Naomi had become a stranger to Sam. Sam waited in his office for Addison to arrive. He hoped that she would arrive without Mark. Sam knew that hiring Mark would be a wise decision for the practice. His specialty would generate a great deal of revenue, but personally at the moment, Sam could not stand Mark.

"Mark?" Naomi said in confusion as she waited for the elevator. "What are you still doing here?"

"I'm moving to LA" Mark smirked as he wrapped his arm around Addison.

"Yes, Mark's moving in with me" Addison said smiling as they all walked into the elevator.

Naomi could hardly believe it. She knew something was wrong when Addison was being impulsive, but Naomi couldn't exactly put her finger on it.

"Well that's fantastic. I think it's great" Naomi said with a huge smile on her face.

"I think so too. Think Sam would hire me?" Mark asked Naomi.

"Why wouldn't he? Besides it's just not Sam's practice, it's Addison's practice too" Naomi said.

Addison gave Naomi a look, and they went their separate ways. "What time does your flight leave?" Addison asked Mark.

"Not until tonight. So if you wanna christen my new office, I think I could squeeze you in." Mark said as he saw Sam walking out of his office.

There he was, Mark Sloan. Sam hated how he always got his way with the girls back in med school. Sam couldn't take his eyes off Addison and he couldn't hide his feelings any longer. She couldn't possibly still be in love with Mark, after all these years. Sam thought to himself.

"So what's going on?" Sam asked as though he was fishing for information. "You're moving here and you want me to give you a job, is that right?"

Mark couldn't understand Sam's hostility towards him. For once in his life, Mark was trying to put someone else before him, before his needs. He had never stopped caring about Addison, and there was always a lingering feeling so strong and so passionate for Addison. Mark knew that she felt the same way.

"Dude, I don't know what the hell your problem is, but I don't need you to do me any favors" Mark said quickly turning around and heading for the elevator.

Addison was nearly in disbelief from what had just happened. She walked over to Mark and rested her chin on his broad shoulder. "Um..so what was that about?"

"Why don't you ask Sam? I can do this, it can't be that hard for me to find a job here. It's LA for Christ's sake." Mark said before getting on the elevator.

Addison sat at her desk before her first patient and thought about New York and living with Mark for those few months. He was a different Mark back then. Addison had so many regrets about the past, but she knew that her life was now slowly falling back into place. She couldn't help but smile when she thought back to all the wonderful things Mark said to her last night. Addison couldn't believe it,…and just like that, she was head over heels for Mark Sloan.

Mark came back to Oceanside Wellness around lunchtime with a bottle of wine in his hand. "You're looking at the new Head of Plastics at St. Ambrose" Mark said grinning. "And, No I didn't have to sleep with that blonde Chief of Staff, but I still managed to dazzle her." Mark smirked and kissed Addison.

"Close the door" Addison muttered against his lips.
