Heart Skipped A Beat


Tumblr prompt: Character A tries to send a sexy snap to character B to remind them of them. it accidentally goes to character C instead.


"Meet me at seven, xo," says the text that Addison receives via Snapchat.

What was Mark doing coming all the way here from New York!?

Addison has no idea, but she decides to meet up with him anyway. He'll be able to help her sort this all out, she might as well see him in person if he's here.

Addison texts back that she'll meet him in the hospital lobby.

She receives a response back almost immediately.


"You're going," Cristina deadpans.

"Cristina!?" Meredith whines as she tries to pry her phone back.

"There, it's confirmed," Cristina smirks at her friend.

"Thanks, Cristina," Meredith sighs. "I would have chickened out otherwise."

"Of course you would have. That's why I am your person," says Cristina.


Addison changes her outfit three times before she heads to the hospital lobby.

Mind you, she also changed her jewlery, and finally, she does up her makeup.

When she emerges from her office, Addison is dressed in a navy blue dress with silver earrings.

She walks towards the hospital lobby, and she breathes a sigh of relief when she doesn't see Mark Sloan standing there yet.

Her stomach flips with butterflies when she sees that Meredith Grey happens to be there.


"Hi," Meredith says nervously as she approaches Addison.

Addison is so pretty in her blue dress, and Meredith feels a little bit insecure about her own outfit, which is a simple red shirt with a jean jacket and necklace.

"Hey," says Addison, lighting up when she sees her.

This is a good sign.

"So, are you ready to go? Or talk? Or…" Meredith asks Addison, and she's a little bit confused when Addison bites her lip nervously, and then leans down to whisper in her ear.


"Meredith… I am so sorry…" Addison says softly, and Meredith swears that she's getting some sort of flashbacks.

"I'm meeting someone here at seven," Addison sighs. "And he's not here yet."

"But… You said you were meeting me here at seven," Meredith huffs.

"Huh?" Addison says, as she looks at her phone. And low and behold, Addison's eyes widen to saucers as she takes in her Snapchat streak data. Seven days and counting, with Meredith Grey. And not a single message to Mark Everett Sloan.

"Oh, then I guess I am meeting you huh," Addison softens, and then she reaches to pat Meredith on the arm. And when Meredith nuzzles into her, Addison flushes at the realization that she'd been sending pictures of her half-naked to her blonde and charming colleague, who also happened to be her biggest crush of all time.
