Lexie was struggling with fear and thos nervous feeling, you feel when you are totally excited about something. She was standing in front of Mark Sloan Appartment door, ready to tell him she loved him. But she was afraid that she was too late, and she was afraid he didn't want her anymore. But she told herself to be strong ans show some curage.
She was about to raise her hand, to knock on the door, when suddenly, the door of Callies appartment opened.
Callie was weeping and crying. And Mark stood beside her. Holding Callies hand, Mark said '' Cal, I'm sorry, I gotta do that, y'know, I just …''. Then he saw Lexie standing there. With her hair brown again. She looked like she used. ''Lex...'' was all he said. Callie still weeping, turned ourand, shut her door and left Mark and Lexie alone.
''Mark'', Lexie started ''I gotta talk to you. It's important. Really.''
Mark put out a key, opened his appartment door and let Lexie in. ''Go ahead'' he said.
When she walked in his appartment, all the memories came back. It felt different to be here now.
She was afraid that he would sent her away.
Again she took all she had together and started explain '' Mark , I don't know how to start this. Everything went wrong. From the moment we broke up till now. The thing with Alex, and the shooting. It was so much, and I made a mess out of trying to handle it. Infact I would not have been able to handle it without you. And then I had this breakdown and you made sure I'm fine. And I pushed you away. I didn't meant to, really. After all I just, I broke up with Alex, Mark. When I said I loved him, I thought he would die, because of me. Because I helped killing Gary Clarks wife. Damn.''
''Lexie'' Mark started but she interrupted him immediately,
''No, please listen to me. I, I'm a fool. And an I don't even deserve you, but I want you. Just you, and not Alex. Mark, I love you. And now I'm asking you ,can you give me, us another chance? I really hope you can because I really don't wanna live without you anymore.'' There wasn't anything more to say. Lexie said it. The only thing he wanted her to tell him.
That she loved him.
It took everything about a second till she was in his arms and his lips were on her lips.
And the world, seemed to spin around again, finally.
