Title: A/U Season 4

Author: NCIS1990

Disclaimer: I don't own "Grey's Anatomy" or it's characters.

Summary: A/U after "Crash into Me (2)". What if instead of going to Meredith's after Nick's death Lexie went to Joe's where she ran into a certain plastic surgeon? Slexie all the way.

SCENE: Joe's.

(Lexie is at the bar sadly staring at her drink when she hears a voice.)

Voice: You know, if you've paid for that you're aloud to drink it.

(Lexie looks over her shoulder to find Mark sitting next to her.)

Lexie: I know, it's just— It's been a hard day.

Mark: Yeah, thinking about that patient?

Lexie: I just, I wish there was more I could do for the pati— For Nick. He was nice to me you know, I felt like for the first time since I've been here someone actually understood me.

Mark: Don't do this to yourself, you did everything you could, sometimes even if you do everything right there's still no guarantee.

Lexie: Yeah.

Mark: If it's any consolation I think you kicked ass. Even when things got crazy you kept your cool and knew what to do. I was pretty damn impressed, most of the interns are complete idiots.

(Lexie lets out a slight laugh and looks at him shocked.)

Mark: It's true. Most of the interns just run away screaming in situations like that.

Lexie: Well, it's scary and intimidating, before this we were in Med school poking an IV into a dummy. Poking an IV into a dummy, nothing bad happens, poking an IV into a human, very different.

Mark: You sound like I was never in med school.

Lexie: Well Dr. Sloan, you sound like you were never a scared and intimidated intern.

Mark: Touche. And we're outside of the hospital, you can just call me Mark.

Lexie: Well then you can just call me Lexie.

Mark: Good deal. So where's Karev? Aren't you two—

Lexie: Oh go no! I mean we were but that's over now, he's a jerk. He didn't even remember sleeping with me.

Mark: Wow, nice.

Lexie: Yeah really, now I'm not just insecure about my job I'm insecure about my personal life.

Mark: Hey, it takes two to be good at sex, he's most likely the problem.

Lexie: Doubt it.

Mark: Really?

(Lexie and Mark lock eyes.)

A FEW HOURS LATER AT THE ARCHFIELD

(Mark rolls off of Lexie and lies down next to her and they are both panting for air.)

Mark: Oh yeah, Karev was definitely the problem.

Lexie: (Laughs awkwardly) That's good to know.

Mark: So that was—

Lexie: Mind blowingly fantastic.

Mark: Oh yeah.

Lexie: But wrong.

Mark: Oh yeah.

Lexie: I'm mean, you're my attending, and- and I barely know you. I mean I didn't even know your first name was Mark until you told me tonight.

Mark: I didn't know your name was Lexie. I only knew you as Dr. Grey, the girl from the bar and Little Grey.

Lexie: So, we agree, this was a mistake, we were vulnerable and it can never happen again.

Mark: Never.

(They stay silent for a few minutes.)

Mark: How about never starts tomorrow?

Lexie: Good idea.

(Mark rolls over on to of her and they begin to make out.)

A/N: Well there's the first chapter, I thought this was a good idea, let me know if you like it!
