Okay guys so I know that the last few chapters weren´t a lot of slexie scenes and I just wanted you to know that it won´t be a whole slexie fanfiction for a few more chapters. It is because I have a lot of ideas for Mark and Lexie but they need to be a couple for a little bit longer. And for now I planned a lot of izzex, calzona and crowen. Of course I will do slexie but just be prepared not to read only slexie. But stay tuned and wait! You won´t regret it!
"So again – You and Derek talked, while you were stuck in the elevator. And now everything´s fine?" Lexie asked confused and Mark nodded."Why couldn´t you two talk two weeks ago after your fight?" but Mark replied that it´s not important anymore and that she should stop thinking about it and went to the bedroom.
"I should stop thinking about it?!" Lexie murmured "How should I stop thinking about it? You two fought because of it and you couldn´t operate the last weeks!" she mentioned when she also entered the bedroom.
"But Bailey gave me the okay to operate again today so please could you just stop and come to bed? It was a really stressful day!" Mark begged and put off his shirt and jeans and laid into bed in his boxers.
"Fine!" Lexie accepted mad. "But just to be clear: I won´t have sex with you tonight!"
"Oh come on...You abstain from having sex?" Mark asked sad and Lexie thought about it.
"Fine you won I can´t do that. It´s too good to not have it.." she admitted trying to cover her smile.
"I love you Lex!" Mark said and kissed his girlfriend passionatly who replied the kiss immediately.
Callie had her arms around Arizona and tried to calm her down.
"It´s okay...the girl´s heart was just too weak...she couldn´t-"
"No we could have saved her life...but we didn´t!" Arizona pretended. Callie bit on her lip. She really wanted to kiss Arizona right now and she really wanted to spend happy time with her but she knew she had to comfort her.
"It´s okay, it´s okay you´re right we could have saved her life...but we weren´t able to..." Callie meant and Arizona laid her head on Callie´s shoulder.
"I´m home! Cristina? Honey?" Owen shouted through her apartment when he entered it and laid the keys on the table. He smelled that something was burning and saw smoke coming out of the kitchen. He immediately ran into it and opened the oven where it was coming from and took a pan out of it.
"Damn it!" he shouted when he burned his hand by touching it. Owen threw the pan into the sink and poor cold water over his hand.
"Oh god!" Cristina screamed when she came out of the bedroom and saw what happened. "I totally forgot about that chicken.." Owen raised an eyebrow and looked at her with an misunderstanding gaze.
"Why are you trying to cook? You now you can´t cook!" he laughed and earned a mad look from his girlfriend.
"I saw this on TV today and I thought this looks easy and I´ll try it out to congratulate you for the therapy you succeeded." Cristina replied and came closer and saw that Owen was hurt. "Crap! I´m so sorry!" She ran to him and took his hand and blew air on the burned spot.
"It´s okay I´m fine!" He lied and tried to concentrate on something different than the pain.
"Are you sure?" Christina asked and Owen nodded. "Then maybe we´ll order some pizza?" Owen nodded again. Both started smiling but when Cristina turned around to grab the phone Owen stopped and looked at the painful incineration.
"Have you seen Izzie?" Alex asked Meredith with a husky voice.
"She´s on the toilette. I just came from there. Why?" Meredith wanted to know but didn´t get a reply. Alex just ran straight to the toilette and entered it. A nurse let out a little scream when she saw him on the women´s toilette and ran outside.
"Alex this is the false room!" Izzie giggled but her eyes didn´t look happy at all.
"Why didn´t YOU tell me? Why do I have to hear it from Cristina? Why can´t my girlfriend tell me that we´re getting a baby?" Alex asked angrily with a loud voice that frighted Izzie a bit. She couldn´t answer. She knew anything she would say couldn´t be an apology for him. Tears streamed down her face and she stroke with her hands through her hair.
"It is possible that I die before the baby can be born." she cried. Alex mad eyes turned into worried and guilty and he looked down at his shoe.
"See, I know you are scared. I´m scared too. But together we will fight the cancer and we will be the best parents ever!" he tried to comfort her but it didn´t help.
"Alex! I have a surviving chance from about 5 percent!" Izzie screamed. Alex´eyes filled with tears. He took his girlfriend in his muscular arms and both started crying.
"I don´t understand what happened.." Meredith admitted and Derek went through the bedroom and prepared his clothes for tomorrow. "You were stuck in the elevator and talked about the `good old times´and now you are best friend again?"
"Yes that´s right!" he meant and laid himself on her and kissed her.
"Stop!" she chuckled. "That´s everything?"
"Yes." he answered and kissed her a second time.
"Mark?" Lexie whispered and didn´t get any reply. "Mark are you asleep?" she asked again. His head laid on her shoulder and his muscular arms pressed her body against his.
"Mark!" she asked a third time, this time louder.
"Hm?" he answered with his eyes closed and barely awake.
"I still don´t understand what happened..." she admitted and Mark slowly turned on his back.
"Lexie!" he meant madly and looked at the clock. "It´s three am. Can we please just sleep?" He begged and turned on the other side.
"No because it doesn´t let me sleep! Can you please tell me everything? You couldn´t just talk and now everything´s fine!" she explained in a normal tone again.
"Of course it can be like that Lexie! And now let me fucking sleep!" Mark shouted angrily and Lexie looked surprised. She didn´t know that Mark could get so furious. She didn´t answer and turned around and so they slept back by back. Lexie had to cry. Tears found their way down her cheeks and she tried to cover the fact that she couldn´t breathe through her nose anymore. She laid the rest of the night awake until the alarm went on and she hopped out of bed to get ready soon and leave the apartment for work. She couldn´t stay longer than necessary.
"Good morning doctor Hunt!" Richard greeted his employee when they met at the nurses station.
"Good morning doctor Webber." he smiled and tried to cover his burned hand.
"I got a coffee for you doctor Hunt." Webber explained and held the hot cup of coffee in front of Owen.
"Oh..um..well, thank you! And why?" he thanked and grabbed the coffee with his burned hand and immediately felt a big wave of pain flowing through his body when he touched the hot cup. He put the cup on the desk as quickly as possible and Webber watched him. But after Owen started smiling again he continued that he and his wife Adele watched a movie last night where a billionaire helped poor people and he decided to do nice things for others like giving them a fresh coffee. Owen thanked again before Webber left to do some chief stuff. After he was out of sight Owen looked at his hand and thought that he would need to let examine it, so he went to an empty examination room and paged Meredith Grey.
"You paged me?" Meredith asked when she entered the room and saw Owen sitting on the bed.
"Yes...um...well, I burned my hand and I cooled it and did everything necessary for this injury but it still hurts very badly. I think there´s something more complicated. Could you please examine my hand?" Owen explained and Mer nodded. She put on some sterile gloves and looked at the hand.
"Why didn´t you ask Cristina to do that?" she asked with a concentrated gaze on the hand.
"Well, haha.." Owen laughed. "It was kind of her fault." Meredith looked confused. "Well, she wanted to cook something because I finished my-...because we wanted to celebrate something and she forgot the chicken in the oven and I wanted to take it out and burned my hand."
"Cristina doesn´t cook." Meredith joked but when she saw Owen´s serious eyes she stopped. "Really?!" And Owen nodded smiling when he suddenly squalled.
"I´m sorry!" Meredith excused. "I think that perhaps your nerve could be damaged.."
"You think that perhaps it could? Doctor Grey you´re a doctor! If I would be a normal patient this would scare me!" Owen explained and Meredith looked down at her shoes.
"Maybe we should do some tests?" she asked uncertain.
"Are you asking your patient what to do?" Owen replied strict.
"No..no of course not! We are going to do some test. I´m getting the mobile ultra sound machine and I will find out what the problem is." she answered and left the room. Outside she leaned against the door and sighed.
"Hey beautiful one!" Derek meant and kissed her on the cheek. "What are you doing here?"
"Nothing! Owen teaches me how to talk to patients." Meredith answered quickly and Derek raised an eyebrow.
"Since when are you interested in trauma? Your my future neuro goddess! You were from the very first beginning." Derek smirked.
"Yes but just because I was a much younger intern who fell in love with the head of neurosurgery." Meredith replied smiling.
"You´re still much younger! Oh by the way I wanted to ask you if it´s okay for you when I go to Joe´s bar with Mark tonight?" Derek wanted to know and Meredith stopped smiling.
"I still don´t understand what happened but yeah it´s fine. I´m going to do a ladies night with Izzie."
"There isn´t anything to understand. I love you!" he replied, kissed her again and went down the hallway to search for Mark. Owen opened the door and and Meredith fell back.
"Your patient is waiting!" he said and Meredith stood up quickly.
"Yes! Of course! I´ll be right back!" she answered and ran outside to bring the supplies she needed.
"Hey Mark! I wanted to ask you something." Derek warned when he came closer to Mark who wrote something in a chart.
"Derek, of course ask whatever you want." he replied not looking at his friend at all.
"Would you like to go to Joe´s with me tonight?" Derek asked and Mark thought about it for two seconds.
"Yes of course!" he replied and gave the chart to a nurse and winked "Thank you." Derek raised an eyebrow.
"What was that?" he asked when they walked down the hallway.
"That? Nothing! I have a girlfriend!" Mark laughed.
"Don´t remind me.." Derek whispered and they went down the hallway talking a little bit about their patients till they split up and followed their own ways.
"Hello Mrs. Mills!" Mark greeted his patient when he came into the room. "Excited because of the operation today?"
"I couldn´t be more excited. I´m scared.." she admitted.
"You don´t have to be scared! I´m the best plastic surgeon you could get!" Mark explained and smirked. The patient smiled and Mark checked the vitals before he left and Sadie Harris came to him.
"Doctor Sloan?" she asked flirty "I wanted to ask you if I could assist you today at Mrs. Mills operation."
"Um..No!" he answered and was about to leave.
"Excuse me? Why?" she asked again and pulled him back.
"Because this woman needs a surgeon and an assistant that are a good team and can cooperate with each other." he replied mad.
"And you think that we are not a good team?" she asked sarcastically
"No! After the scene you made me on the hallway on your first day...I don´t want to work with you doctor Harris!"
"What?! And if I would like to specialize in plastics?" she wanted to know.
"There are also some other plastic surgeons who can take you under their wings!" he explained, turned around and left.
"But you have to teach your students!" she yelled after him.
"I already taught one!" he smirked and thought about Lexie.
"Interns!" Cristina shouted and hers came to her. "Okay doctor Webber thinks he has to punish me so we have to work in the clinic today. Be prepared for some hypochondriac people who got a running nose and think it would be brain fluid or people who want to enjoy the drugs for free." she explained annoyed and went to the Denny-Duquette-Clinic and the interns followed her.
"Lexie!" Cristina shouted through the clinic and Lexie said that she´s sorry to the patient she examined and went to her resident.
"Yes doctor Yang?" she asked and was happy because Cristina remembered her name.
"Tell me everything you know about Izzie Steven´s melanoma!" she whispered and Lexie cleared her throat.
"Well, she has stage IV metastatic melanoma which already spread to her brain and if there are tumors the possibility for having tumors on the liver and other organs is really high. Her surviving chance is about five percent. And as you already know she´s pregnant and Alex doesn´t know it yet and she won´t fight!" Lexie replied quietly.
"Alex knows.." hristina murmured.
"What?"
"He knows. Izzie told me about her disease and I told Alex. She will fight now that he knows it." Lexie nodded.
"Okay that´s everything, now go back to work!" Cristina ordered and Lexie did it.
"Who paged me?" Mark asked madly as he entered the clinic.
"Um..over there I think. A cut or something." Christina answered and pointed on a curtain which covered a patient´s bed.
"You call me because of a cut? What kind of stupid-" Mark asked angrily when he put the curtain aside and saw Lexie. "Oh sorry."
"No, no it´s fine..." she admitted and sew the patient. "I didn´t page you because of the cut. I paged you because I wanted to talk with you. I wanted to ask you what you´re doing tonight, because maybe you want to go out with-"
"Derek? I´m glad you also thought about it" Mark cut her off "I already told him that we are going to Joe´s tonight." Lexie wanted to say something but his pager went on and he left saying that he has to meet a patient.
"...with my father and me..." she continued.
"Deary, that´s your boyfriend?" the gay patient asked "He´s hooot!" he continued and waved with his hand like he would like to cool down.
"Yeah he is...but he should learn to listen.." Lexie answered awkwardly and finished the cut.
"Maybe you should tell him what you really wanted to ask." the patient suggested.
"See, He knows that I had a big fight with my father. I mean..that´s why we became a couple!" Lexie explained sarcastically "And last night my father called me and meant that he got sober and was in a clinic and wouldn´t drink anymore. He told me that he already got the 30 day chip! And I really love my father and it was hard for me, not to have contact with him..So I suggested that we could go out for dinner tonight and he´ll meet my boyfriend...but my boyfriend has other plans." Lexie got really mad.
"Well, I had the same problem once. Tom he meant that golf would be more important than meeting my best friend Jessie. But I went to him and told him that we can only have a relationship if he won´t always think about himself and if he meets my family and friends." the man answered.
"And did it help? Are you two still a couple?" Lexie, who already calmed down, asked.
"God...no! I surprised him while he was making out with his golf partner! But the point is that you have to stand up and fight for your right!" he smiled and Lexie started laughing because she really liked him.
"Yes it´s definitely your nerve." Meredith saw on the display of the ultra sound. Owen let his head fall back on the wall and sighed. "But you don´t need to be operated. Rest and an o.r. prohibition for the time it is damaged will be enough." she explained when she cleaned the machine and put it away.
"Okay...thank you..And I´m sorry that I was so rough." Owen admitted guilty "I wanted to teach you how to talk with patients."
"It´s okay. I mean I can communicate with patients very well but you are the head of trauma and Cristina´s boyfriend so I was a little bit scared." Meredith smiled and Owen had to smile to.
"So as I said thank you and I will ask the nurse to give me something to reduce my pain and then I´ll look after my patients." Owen meant and left the room. Meredith cleaned it and then also left.
"Mark!" Lexie said loud as she went towards her boyfriend.
"Lexie good to meet you! I wanted to ask if you would like to assist today at Mrs. Mills operation.
"No! I don´t want to assist you today because I need to get ready for the dinner with my father tonight who – I wanted to tell you 10 minutes ago – Is out of the clinic, sober and wanted to meet me and my boyfriend. But now I hear that my boyfriend rather wants to meet his best friend than his future father-in-law!" Lexie yelled but started to whisper angrily when she noticed everyone´s gaze on them.
"Future father-in-law?" Mark asked but Lexie stayed quiet. "I´m sorry I didn´t know that. You know, I´m not the kind of man fathers love for their daughters and Derek asked me and you wanted us to be friends again for so long an-"
"Arrgh! Forget it! You´re such a...a...arrgh!" Lexie yelled again, turned around and left him. "Son of a bitch!" she whispered to herself hoping nobody heard her.
Evening:
"Hey Iz! Are you home?" Meredith shouted through the house.
"Yes I´m here!" Izzie screamed from the first floor and went down the stairs Alex following her.
"Would you like to have a girls night? Just the two of us! I bought chocolate for melting and fruits and I borrowed some cool DVD´s. Oh and the most important thing...I´ve got wine!" Meredith meant singing when she took everything out of the bag.
"Where´s McDreamy?" Izzie asked smiling because of Mer´s happiness.
"McDreamy is going out with McSteamy!" she smiled and Izzie and Alex noticed that she already drank some of the wine because she was so happy.
"And what should I do during you´re watching romantic movies and cry?" Alex asked bored.
"Leave the house meet some friends go to the bar I don´t know just let us two alone!" Meredith laughed and Alex looked to Izzie and whispered to her if she wants him to go.
"It´s okay..I need something to distract me from all of this." she whispered back and Alex nodded.
"Okay..but don´t drink the wine!" he warned and kissed her before he left the house and went to Joe´s bar. When he arrived there he sat down at the bar and ordered a beer. He looked through the crowd and saw Derek and Mark sitting on the bar only two empty chairs away.
"Two Scotch again please!" Derek ordered and showed two fingers. "What´s the matter with you? You´ve been looking like that the whole time we´re sitting here"
"Nothing.." Mark lied.
"This doesn´t look like nothing."
"Lexie and I had a fight."
"Why?"
"Not important." Mark lied but Derek didn´t want to stop with asking.
"She wanted to introduce me to her father and I said that I already have plans with you and that fathers usually don´t like me." Mark explained and Derek raised his eyebrows. Alex also stopped drinking and looked at the attending.
"You did what?!" Derek asked surprised.
"It´s true. Usually when fathers met me the first time they forbid their daughters to meet me again." Mark remembered.
"Dude, that was really stupid!" Alex meant and the two men turned around and noticed him.
"I´m sorry? Did you just call your attending stupid?" Mark asked seriously.
"Well, you have to admit that telling your girlfriend that you won´t come to meet her father for the first time because you´d rather want to drink scotch with your best friend is stupid." Alex explained and sipped from his beer bottle.
"He´s right!" Derek admitted and Alex smirked. "I won´t be mad at you if you would like to stop here and we will continue another time."
Mark thought about it while switching his gaze between Derek and Alex.
"I´m glad you called me. I really missed you dad!" Lexie smiled and drank from her didn´t want to drink alcohol in front of him.
"I´m glad you wanted to meet me after everything that has happened." Thatcher admitted and they talked about Lexie´s job while waiting for their meals.
"And what is with this boyfriend you told me? You said he would also be a doctor at your hospital. Max..Mario...something like that." her dad asked. Lexie stopped smiling for a second. She didn´t want to answer this question. But she did.
"Mark...His name is-"
"Good evening! Mark. Doctor Mark Sloan!" Mark said when he reached the table the two were sitting. Lexie didn´t know what to say. She was surprised and happy that he showed up but still kind of mad. He even wore a suit. He reached out his hand to Lexie´s dad.
"I´m sorry are you her teacher?" Thatcher asked confused and shook his hand. Mark and Lexie both blushed.
"No! He´s my..he´s um..He´s Mark." Lexie replied and Thatcher understood.
"Really?! Nice to meet you! Please take a seat." he smiled and Mark sat down. Lexie could see that he was nervous and took his hand. Mark replied it and they were holding their hands till the meals came.
