Chapter 8
Lexie walled back to her cabin, after the incident with Mark she had cried. Why does Mark get to me so much? I just met him. She thought to herself. She was walking back from the Bailey's office, she had given her Tango as a surprise. He was happy to see her. The puppy was now happily jumping next to her. "Aww who is this cutie?" She turned to see Derek emerging from Meredith's cabin. "This is Tango, he is my dog." She replied. Derek bend down to give the energetic puppy a cuddle. "Lexie?" He asked softly after a couple of minutes. "What's wrong? Lexie bursts into tears. "Mark is being so mean! He-he and I were st-starting to be friends b-but now he. Lexie trailed off. Derek pulled her into a hug. "I know how Mark can be, I have been his best friend for years, he doesn't let people in easily. I only knew he was in the army after is mum accidently said it on the phone, that was years after we became friends." Derek replied. "I am here for you." He said reassuringly. All Lexie could do was nod.
Mark was having nap, he just picked up Kipper, who was now lying on his chest, Mark was hoping he could get some rest. "Mark? Are you listening to me? It was Lilly his sister who was talking to him. It felt so real. "We need to get out of here it's going to blow! She shouted over the sounds of gunshots. "I know." Mark shouted back. "Stay behind me." They crept to the broken wall at the other side of the building, bullets were flying everywhere. Mark noticed a hidden sniper from afar. "Lilly watch out!" But it was to late she was hit in the chest. "M-Mark. I-I love you." She sputtered. "Find love, be happy, j-just live your life." Mark was bend over her watching the light die in her eyes, there was no life left in them. "Lilly! LILLY!" He cried out, she was gone. Mark woke up in tears, he missed her every day, he would find the person that killed her, and when he did he would finally get his revenge.
"Yes!" April exclaimed. "Another point for team Japril!" She gave Jackson a high five. "That's not true we are going to win the next game." Alex stated. "We'll see." Jackson replied daringly. The ball was put in the middle of the foosball table and moments later April made yet another point. At that moment, Lexie, Addison, Derek, Callie, Arizona, Meredith and Teddy walked in with a puppy trotting next to Lexie. "We were about to play a game of charades, you guys in?" Derek asked. Izzie nodded. "As long as it's a game where Jackson an April don't win. She laughed. The gang sat down and began writing down movie titles, songs and books.
"Cristina I think we should talk." Owen stated as he walked into Cristina's cabin. Cristina looked up. "I am sorry I walked out on you." She said. "I just thought that you would prefer it if I was gone when you woke up. "Cristina, I enjoyed it, a lot and I like you, a lot and I don't want things to be awkward between us-" Cristina cut him off. "Close the door." She said softly. "What?" Owen asked. "Shut. The. Door." She repeated. Owen did as told. With that Cristina got up an began to take her clothes off. "Then it's a good thing I like you to.
"Mark? Can I speak to you?" Meredith asked as she stood in the doorway of his cabin. Mark got up with Kipper on his heels. "What is it?" He replied grumpily. "Don't do anything with Lexie." Meredith said. "I know who you are, I know you hurt people, but if you hurt Lexie I will end you." Before Mark could reply she was already gone.
