Thank you for your review!
Enjoy this new chapter :P
At Meredith's.
Meredith and Lexie were sitting in the kitchen, both of them were feeling awkward.
"Ok, I don't really know what to say in situations like this, so, please, be patient with me." Meredith said to her little sister after gave her a cup of coffee.
"It's okay, Meredith. I'm just happy to stay here with you, so you don't have to say anything else to make me feel better. I'm not really okay with everything, you know, these days were so hard for me and…" Lexie was babbling fast and Meredith decided to cut her off.
"What's the point Lexie? You're babbling. I'm babbling too when I'm nervous, but now you have to tell me what you really want to say."
"What I want to say is..that I'm okay with you and that I'm really happy to stay here with you." Lexie said blushing hard.
"You're not kidding me, right? You're really happy for this, I mean you…me..here at my house…"
"Yes I am Meredith. It's very simple to make me happy. I'm a simple person. Maybe you think that I'm all smiley and puppy faces, but I'm not like that. Not all."
"What? Why are you saying that?"
"Because Sadie told me what you said to her about me." Lexie nodded. "I'm not the person that you think I am. I'm not this kind of person. I'm not like you too, that's true." Lexie sighed as she sip her coffee. Meredith was studing her sister.
"I liked your mother, you know? I met her when your sister, Molly, was pregnant. And then she helped me a lot when my mother dead."
The memory of Susan made feel Lexie a little sad. She missed her Mom a lot. Now in particular.
"She was very nice and kind." Meredith added.
"Yeah, she was." Lexie nodded with a sad smile on her lips. "I miss her in every moment. I really miss my family. My Dad too. I'm sorry that you didn't know the real Tatcher. I'm really sorry for that, because he was a great Dad for me and Molly. And now that my mother is dead it's like he's dead too. But in the reality he's not. He's a drunk. And that's hurt me. A lot, Meredith."
"He's not your Dad anymore.."
"No, he's not."
Then there was silence between the two of them. Both were lost in their private thoughts. A question crossed in Meredith's mind and before she could realize that she was speaking, the words that she was thinking came out of her mouth.
"So…soon we have to call you Dr. Sloan?"
Lexie blushed as she looked at her left hand, where Mark's ring was.
"Yeah, I really think so."
"I didn't think that you were interested in marriage."
"Me neither, but then Mark came in my life and I started to see things in different ways. For the first time since I come back in Seattle I'm feeling wanted. And that's only because of him."
"Are you scared?"
"About what?"
"He's Mark Sloan."
"I heard every single gossip around him and I know how he is with me. He's a different person. He's not the manwhore. He's Mark. He's just Mark. He's complicate, I know that, but with me he's perfect. He respects me. He really cares about me. And he asks me to marry him."
"But..does he love you?"
"Yes, he does."
"Just checking. You know, sister's thing."
"Yeah I know." Lexie laughed softly.
"Meredith, can I ask you something?"
"Yes, sure." Meredith nodded but she was feeling nervous and a little scared.
"Do you want to be one of my bridesmaid?"
"Oh..well…are you sure about this?"
"I'm sure." Lexie said with a sweet and hopeful smile.
"I will be one of your bridesmaid."
"Really?"
"Really, Lex. Really."
And with that Lexie brought her cup to her lips to drink. Her smile was visible in her eyes too. Meredith rolled her eyes and laughed as she watched her little sister. It's not so bad to have a little sister to take care of. Meredith thought.
After his shift ended, Mark went to the gift shop of the hospital. He looked at every single puppet before he found the one he was searching for : a little white tiger. He saw one of this tiger in an old Lexie's picture. She was six years old and she kept it close to her chest. When he saw that picture he felt his heart getting warm.
And now, after a shower and a change of clothes, he was parking is car in front of Meredith's house. The little white tiger in his left hand as he opened the front door. A small light came from the kitchen, he looked inside to see if Lexie was there.
"She's in the attic." Meredith said as she watched Mark's eyes run from corner to corner. "I think that she's asleep. We talked a lot." She said proud of herself.
"Thank you." Mark said with a smile. And he found himself proud of Meredith. Once he arrived at Meredith's attic he opened the door with caution. He didn't want to wake her up.
Mark sat up on the floor, his eyes were looking, studing with curiosity Lexie's face and he felt his lips curving in a smile. He placed the little tiger on her pillow next to her. Unable to resist, he interlocked his fingers with hers, caressing her hand with his thumb as he watched her sleep.
She woke up an hour after and she found his blue eyes waiting for hers.
"What.." she said as she saw the little white tiger on her pillow.
"It's for you." He leaned forward to give her a kiss on her cheek.
"It's beautiful." She said intercepting his lips and he covered her with his body.
"It is." He smiled on her lips as his left hand was rubbing her hip.
"How are you feeling Lex?"
"A little better." She said as she was looking at her puppet. "A little better because now you're here with me."
"You are too sweet for me." He said kissing her neck.
"Said the one who gave to his girlfriend a cute puppet." She laughed softly.
"Don't tell this to anybody or I'll bring it back to the shop."
"My mouth is closed."
"That's bad. I was going to kiss you."
"Now my mouth is open."
"Good." He said as he covered her lips with his for an intoxicating kiss. He was the one who pulled back. Breathless.
"I missed you today. I really missed you. I can't stay away from you." He whispered and then he kissed the corner of her mouth. "I hate to stay away from you."
"It's the same for me." She moaned softly as he started to kiss her neck again, his left hand now was under her t-shirt, rubbing her back. She moved her hands to caress his jaws, playing with his stubble.
"Lex?"
"Mmmhh?"
"Do you want a baby?"
"Now?" she whispered.
"Addison said that we can try again. Do you want to try again?"
"I'm scared."
"Me too, Lex."
"I want to have babies with you."
"Do you want try?"
"I do."
"Good, because I want to try too. And this time everything will be fine."
"How do you know that?"
"Stop talking."
"Mark?"
"Everything will be fine, Lex." He looked into her eyes hoping that everything will be really fine for the both of them.
"Kiss me, Mark." She said, her eyes darkened with desire. Mark kissed her neck, then her right cheek and finally he kissed her lips parting them with his tounge, tasting her mouth. His hand were caressing her hips before made their way to her back before and to her bottom then. Lexie's hands were oh his back, when she reached the hem of his shirt she lifted it up leaving Mark half naked.
"Everything will be fine." He said again as he took off her t-shirt. "You're so beautiful." He murmured as he found her breasts already free. He covered it with his hands, they're eyes locked and she moaned arching her back a little. He kissed her left breast, suckling and nipping her skin before took her turgid nipple into his mouth.
"Oh God Mark." She cried out as she felt her desire into her belly and then between her legs. He smirked against her breast. One of his hands dipped inside the front of her panties.
"You're so wet."
"I know." She moaned again as she felt her thumb massaging her clit. "I can't stand it."
"You can." He said in an husky voice as he buried one finger inside her. "All you have to do is cum for me, Lex. I want to feel it." He whispered against her lips before he slipped his tongue inside her parted lips. She moaned again and again until she clenched his finger with her body, whispering his name. He discarded his jeans and pushed his jeans and boxer briefs down over his hips. With one easy thrust he disappeared into her body.
"No condom?"
"No condom, Lex." He whispered on her lips, biting her bottom lip as he began to stroke her body with his.
"How are you feeling?" he asked.
"I'm in Heaven." She murmured before moaning, her hands were locked in the back of his neck, her eyes locked with his and when they come their juices were mixed. He collapsed on the top of her whispering her name and suckling her earlobe.
"I love you." She said breathless.
"I love you too, sweetheart." He rolled on his side and she rested her head on his chest.
"You look tired, Mark."
"I am." He sighed. "But I want to stay here with you. I want to talk to you."
"We can do it anytime you want." She kissed his lips. "Anytime, Mark. Now close your eyes and sleep." He smiled and after another kiss he did what she requested falling asleep.
