Life's Greatest Irony Part 4

Disclaimer: I do not own Grey's Anatomy

Alex's POV

As he drove to Joe's where he would hopefully find comfort in the form of alcohol, Alex felt angry and betrayed. How could Izzie sleep with Mark? It wasn't like Izzie and Alex were together or anything, but he still could not comprehend how she could do that to him. Why she would do something that would hurt him. He loved Izzie so much, he thought. And then he saw the yellow lights.

Izzie's POV

Izzie stood motionless, staring at the door that Alex had slammed, hoping that if she wished hard enough, he would come walking through. He could start a full-on confrontation for all she cared, but the continuing silence was horrible.

Mark: "Izzie, come on. Come back to bed."

Izzie: "I can't believe that after what just happened, you're still only out to get some."

Mark: "Well, I'd love to continue… But, Izzie, you're physically shaking. Staring at the door, wishing for him to walk back in, isn't healthy."

Izzie: "How did you know that's what I was doing?"

Mark: "Because it's the same thing I did after Addison left." Izzie and Mark locked eyes and it was at that moment that she realized the connection that she had with Mark. "Izzie, it's not going to make him come home any sooner."

Izzie sighed and walk back to her room, as Mark's pager went off, signaling some emergency back at Seattle Grace.

Mark's POV

Damn. Alex had completely ruined his chances to finish what he started with Izzie for that night. Situations like this weren't exactly something that Mark was adept at dealing with. And this particular scenario reminded him a bit too much of when Addison walked in on him when he was with another woman.



He had finally gotten Izzie to stop staring at the damn door. As he watched her go back to her room, his pager went off. 911 from Dr. Bailey…

Dr. Bailey's POV

After four long surgeries, Bailey was finally going to go home. Or so she thought. Her pager went off, telling her to report to the pit. But she wasn't prepared for what awaited her.

Paramedic: "26 year old male, victim of and MVC. He has multiple burns and probable internal bleeding."

Alex: "Dr. Bailey..."

Bailey: "Don't try to talk, Alex. Okay, we need a trauma room and a trauma team! Who's on call tonight? Cristina. Page Dr. Yang and Dr. Sloan. Stat!"
