"Well Addison Montgomery," Mark looked over at her, lying on his side as he ran his fingers through Addison's hair. "Looks like you still have it," he told her teasingly with a wink.
This was the first time she actually felt like they were a couple. She wanted to point that out but she knew if she did, she'd hear an entire song and dance from Mark as to how he wanted it before, but she refused. So instead, she enjoyed the moment, smiling as he ran his fingers through her hair, her naked body lying beside his.
"Still have it?" she asked teasingly. "I never lost it Mark Sloan. Where the hell have you been?" she asked with a laugh.
"Well I would have been here months ago if you I actually knew you wanted me here," he told her with a laugh. "But let's not get into that," he said to her surprise. It wasn't like them to not argue over something, everything really, but she was more than happy to accept it. "I just want to spend my time with you, happily. No fighting. I want to see that smile," he told her as he ran his thumb over her lips.
Feeling his skin against her lips, she felt a smile pulling from her lips. "I'm so happy you're here," she reached up for his hand and held it tight. "Don't leave me. Promise me you won't leave me."
"Begging?" Mark grinned. "This new Addison is showing sides I never knew existed, though I really can't complain. I'm loving every moment of it," he leaned over and kissed her softly. She returned the kiss moaning softly which was nearly enough to drive him mad.
Now that they were back around each other and actually trying to have a real relationship, Addison knew that she'd never be able to kiss him enough. When they had their famous friends with benefits relationship, Addison hated that she loved his kisses so much. She knew he wanted to be with her, but at the time she couldn't trust that he'd actually stay faithful to her, so she couldn't risk anything. She refused.
Breaking from the kiss, Addison placed a hand over Mark's bare chest, feeling his heart beat against her hand. "We should go out," she told him with a weak smile. "We can walk on the beach or something and be one of those mushy couples we used to always make fun of," she giggled softly.
He laughed with her, smiling brilliantly. "Oh so you want to be one of those couples?" he grinned. "Don't tell anyone, but I want to be one of those couples too," he told her in all seriousness. This did catch her off guard, and he could see that by the look in her eyes.
"I want to be one of those couples that hold hands on the beach, or one of those couples that can finish each other's sentences. It's corny, but I want that to be us. I want us to be those people that can never get enough of each other, and no, I'm not talking physically. I, Mark Sloan, can seriously say that this isn't all physical. You're beautiful Addison, of course, but there's so much more beauty than what anyone can see just by looking at you. This is going to sound selfish, but I don't care. I want to be the only one to see that beauty. I want to be the only one you let in."
Addison looked up at Mark in awe, this being a side that clearly, she didn't know existed until now. They were both seeing sides of one another that left them both in shock and it was a good thing. Good because they wanted to be together and they needed to know these things. It was even better because she really did love these parts of Mark that she was being introduced to.
"Don't worry," she whispered softly, kissing him quickly on the lips. "I'm yours. No one will ever know me the way you do. I never let anyone in fully. I've let you in, and you're probably the only person that knows me so well. That's not going to change."
"Promise me now Addison."
She smiled. "I promise Mark, as long as you promise me the same."
Seeing the smile on his face was answer enough. Sitting up, Addison looked around before finally getting up to scramble for her clothes. She picked everything up before deciding to find something else to wear. It was just like Addison to not want to be seen in the same thing after already taking it off.
She looked around, finally settling on a black bikini and a pair of jeans. Once she was dressed, she looked back at Mark to find he was about finished getting dressed too, taking out a sweater from one of his bags.
"Just one more thing Addie," he said as he walked over to her with the grey sweater, walking over to her with a smile, slipping it on. "It's probably chilly out babe," he kissed her as he reached for her hands. "Let's go walk on the beach, show each other off and be one of those couples."
Addison started following him out of the bedroom, holding onto his hand with both of her own. "You're amazing, you know that right?"
"Addison," he looked down at her. "You're asking me if I know I'm amazing?" he grinned.
The redhead shook her head with a laugh. "Dear god, what was I thinking?" she asked sarcastically before kissing his arm as they walked toward the back door.
"Not as amazing as you are though," he finally told her.
Addison slid open her back door to reveal her backyard; they beach. "Would you look at that," she pulled him out, looking over at him with a smile. "We are one of those couples."
