-1Kelly's POV
Negative. Negative. Negative. All these damn pregnancy tests are negative! It can't be right, Jeff and I have had more sex this week than Alex and I ever had and still no brat growing inside of me. One more chance, just one and then I will think of some way to get out of this lie. Maybe go back to Iowa for a while. I can tell Alex it's too hard to see him with another woman and I need to be able to concentrate on our baby. When I call him and tell him about the miscarriage I will be sure to cry about how alone I feel, maybe he will fly out to be with me.
I scoop up the small fortune of pregnancy tests that are scattered across the bathroom floor, tossing them back into the same bag I snuck them up here in. The worst part about staying in Izzie's old room is the lack of privacy. Honestly, how much information do you need about what someone else is doing in the bathroom? Lexie is annoying; she's always watching everything I do. Alex made me apologize to her before I moved in, I don't get why he is so protective over these women. If you ask me they are a bunch of clingy bitches!
As I pull open the bathroom door, she falls toward me. No surprise, she's always there. "Did you need to get in here or are you offering to hold my hair back as I puke?"
Her eyes narrow suspiciously. "Were you sick cause I didn't hear anything?" She smiles at me as she crosses her arms. Irritating little shit, reminds me of my sister.
"Just nauseous, no actual puke. Too bad, you could have put your nursing skills to use." I smirk, knowing how to push her buttons.
"I'm a surgeon, not a nurse!" Although she's shorter than me, Lexie steps closer and looks up at me like she's ready for a fight. It's almost funny, I would kick her scrawny little ass if I didn't think it would fuck things up with Alex, however if she hit me he would probably never speak to her again.
"Hey, is there a problem?" Shit! It's Alex. I guess I'll have to piss of Lexie later.
"No, no problem. I was just going downstairs to get something to settle my stomach. I didn't know you were coming over this morning. Do you want me to make you breakfast?" I smile at him with my sweetest smile, hoping he will forget about walking in on the tension between Lexie and me.
"No thanks, Izzie made me breakfast already this morning." Bitch! "Why don't you go downstairs and I'll be down in a minute, I need to speak to Lexie about something…privately." Wow maybe I won't need to pick a fight, he sounds pissed at her already.
"Okay, I'll be downstairs." I wish I could stay. I really want to hear why he seems to be mad at her. "Alex, don't be too harsh with Lexie. I understand why she doesn't like me; I knew that she would still be upset about what I said to her…even after my apology. It will take some time but I'm sure we will become great friends. At least that's what I want."
I flash an innocent smile and walk away leaving them in the hallway alone
Alex's POV
I pull Lexie into her bedroom and close the door tightly behind us. I don't want anyone else to hear what I have to say. It's something private between me and Lexie, something that happened by accident. I lean in, so close I almost brush against her ear with my lips. "What did you find out?" I whisper, desperate to know if she has found out anything.
"She has been out late every night this week and spends over an hour in the bathroom every morning. She claims to be having morning sickness but I never hear her getting sick." Her breath tickles my ear as she reports a weeks worth of spying on Kelly. Do I feel bad about that? Yes…but it's necessary. I don't trust her, not even a little and I won't have her fucking things up for me on purpose. I called to speak to Meredith the night I suggested Kelly move in here, she wasn't home. Instead Lexie informed me of something she saw, something she thought I should know. While there to pack some of her things Izzie had let it slip to Lexie that Kelly was pregnant. Later that night Lexie was meeting someone at the Archfield for a drink in the hotel bar, she thought she saw Kelly sitting by herself downing shots, not something she should be doing if she was pregnant. Lexie ducked behind a wall and left shortly after, not sure what to do with this information she kept it to herself. She wasn't completely sure it was Kelly and didn't want to accuse her of anything she wasn't sure of. I asked for her help. Help keeping a watchful eye on Kelly for me. "I don't think she suspects that I'm doing this for you but she does realize I've been watching her."
"Okay just keep doing what you're doing and let me know if you find out anything." I step past her, before reaching for the door. I pause, looking back at her briefly. "Thanks for doing this Lexie." It means a lot, something isn't right I can feel it.
