We start off the chapter with a flashback of their actual first meeting at a party of her parents in the summer of ninth grade :)
And we also see the Private Practice characters because Emma is preparing to go to Stanford in a few months so now she lives down there in her mom's old house. She's going to study orthopedic surgery.
Let's go into the story, shall we?

Mark takes Addison's hand in his. "Your hand is like a holy place that my hand is unworthy to visit. If you're offended by the touch of my hand, my two lips are standing here like blushing pilgrims, ready to make things better with a kiss." he said.
"Good pilgrim, you don't give your hand enough credit. By holding my hand you show polite devotion. After all, pilgrims touch the hands of statues of saints. Holding one palm against another is like a kiss." Addison told him.
"Don't saints and pilgrims have lips too?" he asks as they put their palms together.
"Yes, pilgrim—they have lips that they're supposed to pray with." she smiled and took a sip of her wine.
"Well then, saint, let lips do what hands do. I'm praying for you to kiss me. Please grant my prayer so my faith doesn't turn to despair."
"Saints don't move, even when they grant prayers."
"Then don't move while I act out my prayer." Mark kisses Addison. "Now my sin has been taken from my lips by yours." he points out.
"Then do my lips now have the sin they took from yours?" She questions.
"Sin from my lips? You encourage crime with your sweetness. Give me my sin back." They kiss again.

Emma woke up with the worlds worst headache, she was groaning.
"Last night..." she turned over and found Pete in the bed next to her.
She thought. Oh no. I slept with Pete?
"Emma your parents..." Charlotte starts as she walked in and saw Pete in the other side of the bed. "Oh my god!" she shrieked.
"Oh shit." Pete started to get out of the bed as Charlotte hands him a robe. He put it on. "I gotta." he started to run out but was stopped by Cooper.
"Hey." Cooper greets.
"Oh my god." Emma exclaimed.
Pete put his hand up to his forehead and groans. This was reminiscent of him and Sam walking in on Mark and Addison when they took her down here months ago, and now it's come back to bite him in the ass. He had slept with their daughter.
"Breakfast is here." Cooper informs him as he walked away. "Maybe I should should sleep with her." he mutters and walks out of the room.
We next see Sam and Emma at the seating area of the practice. There is a box of donuts.
"You get 30 seconds." Sam said.
"I'm sorry?" Emma asked.
"I used to be your mother's business partner and I'm your sole provider now, so you get 30 seconds, to answer."
"To lecture me on my business practices? But if you start to lecture me on something not related, to my business practices, I will walk away. Those are the rules."
Oh, so our friendship has rules now?" Sam questions the red-headed girl.
"No." Emma starts. "We're not talking." she churned her head over a bit. "Well, I want to talk to my mother's friend."
"She doesn't want to talk to you right now. So now you're talking about yourself in third person."
Naomi walked in and took a strawberry-frosted doughnut. "Hi. Did you sleep with Pete last night?" she asked.
"Yep." Emma agrees.
"You broke the rules!" Sam exclaims.
"I'm walking away."
After Emma exited, Naomi shot Sam a glare because she was trying to be friends with her best friend's daughter and her ex-husband's cornering does not help.

Back in Seattle. Addison leaves the apartment in only her Columbia University t-shirt and a pair of red striped panties, to find Callie standing out in the door in her robe having just taken a shower.
"Mark is a sex machine!" Addison exclaimed.
Callie laughed. "He's that bad?" she asks.
"Yes!" Addison laughs back. "He's worse than anybody."
"But it's good?"
She nodded and smiled. "Amazing. But I should kind of know that having sex with him gives me risks."
Callie pats her friend on the shoulder and goes to say something else but Addison continues on. "Having sex with him gets me pregnant. I got pregnant by him three times already and had a pregnancy scare when we dated again in Med School, all because of him." her friend rambled on. "Mark loves sex more than anyone, you know. I took him up on that in high school then again in Med school, then again in the last four years before my divorce. He loves it so much that in the weeks leading up to my divorce; he dropped everything to come the night I overdrank myself. I called him out on it, saying it was a 'transcontinental booty call.' So, yeah. He loves sex more than anyone else does."
"Transcontinental booty call?" Callie giggles.
"Shut up Torres." Addison shushes her. "Did you know we were friends with benefits for years? It stopped when I moved back here for good. Between him and Caleb making me tired as hell...I just can't."
Before Callie could say something else, Mark sticks his head out the door with only a pillow covering him.
"Addie? Come back to bed." Mark says and goes back into the apartment.
Addison looked at Callie. "See what I mean?" she follows him back in.
[-]
We see scenes of Los Angeles and the screen zooms in to find Emma looking over at her letters. Pete entered with Lucas and put him to sleep upstairs, then came back downstairs and poured two glasses of wine for him and Emma, and sat down next to her.
"What are you doing?" Pete asks as he held the wine glass out to her.
Emma jumped and took the wine glass. "Just looking at the pictures of Caleb that my parents sent me." she holds the picture up for him. "He looks so much like my dad and I don't know why because I look nearly the spitting image of my mom." she sips out of the wine glass. "Except for the nose. My mom calls it the 'Sloan nose'. Sometimes I really don't get my mom."
Pete chuckled, "The Sloan nose?" he asks.
"Shut up." she gave him the finger. "About last night..." she started.
He ran a hand through his hair and gulped more of the Muscadet. "I know, you were drunk, I took advantage of you. I shouldn't of did it." he starts to panic. "Your dad doesn't like me very much; he's going to kill me."
Emma tries to calm him down. "I want this, I want us." she assures him and set her wine glass down.
"Really?" he asked.
"Yes." She smiled, "I want you."
"Good, because I want you too." Pete pulled her into a huge kiss. "I want this chance." Then their clothes went flying as he carried her upstairs. Individual pieces of clothing in each path.

There is rain. We zoom out to find Addison sitting on the porch, which has also made us realize that it is around the time she got pregnant with Emma. Actually, it exactly is that time. She is soaking wet.
"Red, what are you doing out here?" Mark asks as he unlocks the door and helped her up. "My parents are not home so we have the house to ourselves." he informs her as they walked in.
"Mark..." Addison began with a huge smile and he knew that she wanted him to make love to her.
He grinned, and led her upstairs, starting to undress her after they had reached his bedroom.
Little did they know that this was the night that had changed both of their lives as they known it.
[-]
"What? Why are you looking at me like that?" Addison asked that day at lunch.
"Addison," Callie began. "Are you speaking the vagina monologues now?" she asks, recalling their previous conversation the night before when Mark was sex-crazed.
"What?"
"I'm all for it, OK? I think it's fantastic. Friends with benefits with Mark for all these years? I mean, that seems great, Mark is open to those things." Callie ate another potato chip. "I really do like that idea actually, I do."
"Are you? You want to really want to go there? Because I was talking with you as Mark made me exhausted?" Addison teared a piece of her pizza, stuffing it into her mouth.
"Because that is big." Callie tells her, "Really big." she adds. "How could you keep it a secret from me? You guys were fuck buddies for nearly eighteen years!"
"Umm... OK. That's, that's just that's insane, is what it is, Calliope." Addison insisted as Mark walks over and starts to kiss her neck.
"Red?" Mark asks and she knew right away what he wanted.
Addison is about to protest but she just got out of her seat and followed him into an on-call room. Callie smirks as she watches them go.

Several hours earlier.
In Los Angeles after her sex with Pete, Emma is at the ice cream shop to get ice cream.
She was paying as she heard three girls talk. "That girl is definitely fucking the needle dude. Her mom the baby doctor was probably fucking him too but now she's fucking that girl's father again." One girl said.
"Like mother, like daughter." Another girl snickers. "I heard that girl got pregnant and her parents bailed her out by taking the child."
"That girl's father is probably fucking the mother and all of the nurses at that hospital." A third girl grins. "Once a cheater, always a cheater."
Emma decided to say something but then she took the ice cream and bolted out.

Flashback to four months ago.
"What am I sitting on?" Meredith asks.
"Top of the world? Dock of the bay?" Mark joked and tries think of another one but can't. "I'm out."
Meredith takes something out of the couch. "Ew-eww! Undies!" She throws them into the kitchen and Cristina picks them up with the handle of a large spoon. Mark and Addison have horrified looks on their faces.
"All right! Who's are they? Who's are they?" Cristina held the underwear up.
"Well, they're not mine!" Owen tells her.
"Well, they're Karev's! They gotta be Karev's!" Mark shouts as Cristina turns and stares at him.
Alex decided to just take the blame. "Yeah, they're mine." He agrees.
'See? They're Karev's! K-K-K-Karev's!" Mark stumbled out.
"Why are they here?" Owen questions.
"I don't know uhh…" Alex pauses as he thinks about it. 'Well, I'm Alex. Yeah, I'm disgusting, I take my underwear off in the living room and leave it there." He informed them.
"Well, get 'em out of here! What's wrong with you?" Cristina questioned him.
"Yeah!" Mark agreed.
"Yeah!" Addison chimed in.
Cristina is waving them in his face. "Take 'em!" Alex makes a noise and jumps out of the way. "Alex you can touch them! They're your underwear."
Alex reluctantly takes them. "Mark? A word." He directs to the door. Mark follows Alex upstairs, and shrugs on his way out. "That's it! I'm tired of covering for you two! This has got to stop!" Alex realizes he still has the underwear in his hand. "Ahh!" He throws them towards Meredith and Derek's room. "And tighty-whiteys! What are you, 8?" He questioned.
Addison enters. "Thank you Alex, thank you so much!" She told him.
Alex does a double take. "Oh hey, no, you're not welcome. OK, look, I hate this! You guys keep embarrassing me!" He turns to Addison. "Yesterday, Avery and Yang found your razor in our bathroom and I didn't know what to say, so I said it was mine and-and that I was the woman in a reconstruction surgery demo. And one thing led to another and," he puts his leg on the chair and pulls up his pants leg to reveal that he now has shaved legs.
Addison inspected his leg. "Wow! And around the ankles, you know that is a tough spot." She confirmed.
"Yeah, it was! All right, listen, I can't…" Alex began.
Mark interrupts him. "All this lying has been hard on us too." he said.
'Oh-oh, yeah-yeah, I bet all the sex makes it easier for all this time!" Alex agrees sarcastically.
"Well, yeah actually." Mark agreed back.
"Meanwhile, I get Cristina shoving your underwear in my face and asking when she can come see me star in Ugly Woman!" Alex ranted.
"We'll try to be more careful, OK? It's just that, we don't want everyone to know because this is going really well, and maybe the reason it's going really well is because it's a secret and our last try." Addison promised.
"I know it sounds really weird, but we're just so bad at relationships and we keep coming back to each other." Mark added.
"We are! Help us!" Addison begs the former intern.
"Help!" Mark pleaded.
"All right!" Alex gave in.
[-]
In Seattle, the interns are gossiping and pointing at the attendings.
"Hey, did you know that they were friends with benefits when she was married to McDreamy?"
"I know. Let's tell McDreamy."
"NO!"
"They've been 'more than friends' for eighteen years."
"I wonder how McDreamy will react when he found out his ex-wife was with his best friend for almost two decades, and including when they were married."
"I bet that's why he became absent in the first place."
"He didn't react so badly when he found out his ex-wife had a child with McSteamy long before they met."
"They met when the daughter was around seven."
"I'm pretty sure the fact that McSteamy had lots of baggage issues is what made Satan's parents hate him and they made her marry McDreamy instead."
"Hey! Satan always loved McSteamy."
"No she never did and she never loved McDreamy either. She doesn't know what love is, she doesn't have a heart or maybe her heart is made of stone plus that is probably what made her give up McSteamy's baby and when he got her pregnant again; abort it."
"I bet that the daughter is fucking people at Satan's practice."
"She is in L.A, right?"
Overhearing the interns talk about her, Mark, and Emma made her very sick. She was so close to telling them off but then felt sick and throw her vanilla milkshake away, then ran to the nearest garbage can.
A little while later, Mark walked into the supply closet to find his girlfriend crying and on the floor with her legs spread out. "Red what are you doing? I paged you to an on-call room thirty minutes ago."
Addison got up and smoothed out her lab coat. "Mark," she breathed. "There were people talking about us and Emma."
He held her close. "Who were taking about us?" he asks.
"The interns," she confessed. "They were saying I don't love you, I don't know what love is, I don't- don't have a heart," by this time she is crying. "They said it's also why I didn't tell you about Emma before, and aborted your baby without realizing how you felt."
"Ads-" he tried to say but she cut him off. "I think it would've been another girl, her name would've been Ella and she would have turned six. I'm sorry Mark, I'm so sorry." she sobs.
"Red." Mark wiped her tears away. "It's OK; neither of us were ready and you were still married." he kissed her passionately and opened the door to find the origin of his girlfriend's crying.
"Honey?"
"Yeah?"
"I love you."

This is before the previous flashback.
At the apartment, Addison is doing a crossword puzzle.
Mark entered and threw his leather jacket down on a chair. "Hey!"
"Hi." she greets and set the book down.
"I just came over to drop off…nothing. So that weekend kinda sucked, huh?" he questioned.
"Yeah, it did."
"So, I guess this is over."
"What?"
"Well, you know, you and me, it had to end sometime."
"Why, exactly?"
"Because of the weekend, we had a fight."
"Mark, that's crazy! If you give up every time you'd have a fight with someone you'd never be with anyone longer than—Ohhh!" They both realize something there.
"So, this isn't over?"
She laughs. "You are so cute! No. No, it was a fight. You deal with it and move on! It's nothing to freak out about."
"Really? OK. Great!
"Ohh, welcome to an adult relationship!" She goes to kiss him.
He stopped her. "We're still in a relationship?"
"I'm afraid so."
"OK." They kiss.

I know you guys will probably be thinking, Pete and Emma? But it's actually experimental and hey, we can consider it karma for him and Sam walking in on her parents in the crossover.
I think it would be perfect too because Emma is kind of alone as her parents have Caleb and his father stopped speaking to her when she got pregnant with her son, and Pete's love life is kind of on the brink as well.
I forget if there was Paddison in Season 1 and 2, but if there was then we'll pretend there never was since I can't stand them either.
As for Maddison, OMG; Mark is truly a sex machine and it's making Addison exhausted. LOL, right? Just wait until she gets pregnant and becomes a horndog just like him. I hope you guys love the Callie/Addison and the flashbacks. We have the conversation from Piece of My Heart, but this time it is Callie who asks and stuff instead of Addie being the one, love it.
I'm pretty sure that without reviewing as this story only has five reviews, that you guys want the MerDer. You will but right now I'm kind of more leaning on Maddison and Calzona so I'm gonna have a very hard time writing MerDer again, and will need your help.
I decided to add Jackson/Cristina(Crackson) too. I love Japril, Burktina, and Crowen but Crackson is funny. Especially in the extended version of 8x13 when it's implied they have sex but keep it a secret at the hospital.
One last thing: even though the only reviewer in Chapter 3, reviewed in Spanish; they want Maddison hot scenes and since I'm not very comfortable writing sex scenes, PM me if you want to help write it out.
Please review, I'll be so happy :)
(P.S: I'm not getting reviews on any of my stories, but I don't give up and here is hoping this will get more reviews)
Response to the review I just got:
Guest- I don't hate MerDer; I love them very much. I don't like Addek; that's the one I can't stand.
I'll get back to writing them soon- I'm just kind of more leaning into Maddison right now, you know?
