Once inside his room, Jackson closes the door over with his foot, and takes Lexie over to his bed. Slowly putting her onto it he pulls the covers up over her body before he goes to turn away.
Taking a step forward he is stopped by Lexie grabbing his wrist firmly and says forcefully "Stay."
"Lexie, I'm not going anywhere, I'm just going to get changed then I'm sleeping on the floor." Jackson whispers looking down at her.
As she opens her eyes she looks at him intensely and says "Hold me please, i don't want to be alone."
"Your not going to be alone." He says trying to ease his wrist out of her grip.
"Please?" She begs.
Sighing at the fact she looks so scared and vulnerable he decides to cave in and says "Fine, scoot over." while he takes off his clothes so he is left in his boxers.
Getting in behind her as she lays on her side, he places his hand around her waist and rests his head on top of hers.
"Thank you, i just, i can't sleep at night, i see Mr Clark's face, and the words he said to me, i see Alex and Mark that day, it all replays over in my head, i then get different scenarios playing out in my dreams, i just can't take it anymore, everyone walking around eggshells around me, Alex wanting nothing to do with me because he has had enough crazy in his life, Mark constantly watching me and then goes shoving his tongue down Amelia's throat, i can't sleep, i don't feel safe and i don't like being alone." She silently rants off to him.
"Well your safe now so try not to think about that day, don't even think of blaming yourself for it either, and who cares about Mark or Alex, they are both idiots and are as bad as each other, and stuff what everyone else thinks or does around you, you just need to focus on yourself, if Meredith heard this she would go off her block at you telling you off, you have heaps of people that still care about, and hey we all hate being alone, but you won't ever be alone, your safe with me now, just close your eyes and i will be right here." He says soothingly into her hair and slowly rubbing her arm.
Once she fells asleep, he started thinking about how light she was and how he could almost feel her ribs right now. Relieved that so far his the only one who has noticed how much weight she has lost, he decides he needs to act fast and help her before it gives Meredith another thing to worry about.
Closing his eyes he tries to let sleep overcome him so he can start helping her tomorrow morning.
... Waking up the next morning, Jackson rolls over to look at the time on his clock and sees that they both have three hour until their shift starts.
Getting out of bed, he shakes Lexie and says "Wake up sleepy head and get ready, we both need to go somewhere before we start work, I'm going for a shower."
Groaning Lexie just rolls onto the other side away from Jackson. Knowing that she won't move in a hurry otherwise, he grabs his pillow and starts whacking her with it while saying "Come on, get moving Lexie, get moving, we have stuff to do today."
Sitting upright she glares at him as he grabs his change of clothes. On his way out she throws the pillow at his back and he just laughs.
...
Once they are both ready they yell out goodbye to the others in the kitchen and head out of the house with Lexie giggling at Jackson.
"At least she seems happy today, i think thats the first time i have heard her laugh this ear;y in the morning since before the shooting." Meredith says.
"At least Jackson is being a good friend to her, he must be helping some how." Derek says before putting his bowl in the sink and walking out of the kitchen.
...
"Where are we going Jackson?" Lexie asks as he turns around the corner.
"You will see in a minute." He says looking at her and smiling.
Smiling at the fact Jackson is being so mysterious, Lexie is feeling pretty happy at the moment, this is probably the first time she has felt happy and not feeling like she has to force on a smile.
Pulling into the parking lot and turning off the ignition, Jackson looks at her and says "Here we are."
"You brought me to a diner, seriously?" She asks getting out of the car.
"Yes because you need to eat, and i am not talking just some plain old cereal or toast, you need the real deal, and we aren't going to leave until you have a decent amount of food, no arguments, or i will talk to the chief." he says opening the door to the diner.
"Hey you can't do that." She exclaims in genuine shock.
"I can, so sit down and order some food, you don't need Meredith or anyone else for that matter worrying about whether you are starting to suffer from anaerobic, seriously Lexie, you have dropped heaps of weight and not in a good way, your going to start eating more until i am satisfied you are back to a healthy weight again." He says sternly.
"Yes Dr Avery, I'm pretty hungry anyway and if it's your shout then i will eat as much as i can." She says cheekily.
"Of course you would, well lets pick some stuff out and eat before we have to go to work," He says smiling at the fact that she isn't arguing with him.
