Chapter 2: Not Alone
"What do you mean you don't know?"
"I mean I don't know if it's Mark's or Alex's baby. I don't know."
"How do you just not know?"
"Well I slept with both of them."
"But you would still know who the father was."
"I don't wanna do this." Lexie got up and left with Jackson on her heels.
"What do you mean you don't wanna to do this?" She walked into her room and turned to face him.
"I don't want to talk about it anymore. Just leave me alone and don't tell anyone." She shut the door and he sighed. He had a bad feeling about this.
The next day, Lexie was nowhere to be found. Jackson knew she was had come to work. He looked around some more before deciding to ask a nurse. She told him that Lexie had left half an hour ago, saying she had something to take care of. Jackson frowned and went looking for Alex. He had a feeling what she was doing, but knew he couldn't talk her out of it.
"Alex!" he called down the hall. Alex turned and looked at him.
"What?"
"Come with me."
"Why?"
"Just come on." Alex starred at him warily before following him outside to his car.
"Dude, where are we going?"
"Just get in. I'll explain on the way."
"Just tell me."
"I can't. Not out here." Jackson got in and waited for Alex before driving off.
"Now will you tell me?"
"Lexie's pregnant." Alex looked at him and frowned.
"She's what?"
"She's pregnant and she doesn't want anyone to know. She left and a nurse said she left to take care of something."
"What does this have to do with me?"
"I think she's getting an abortion."
"No she's not. Not Lexie."
"She's not Lexie right now. She's pregnant and scared."
"So what do we do?"
"We're gonna find her and try and talk her out of it."
"Why do you need me for that?"
"Because you may be the only person she'll listen to."
"You want me to talk her out of something that is completely her choice?"
"She doesn't want to do it. She may think she does but she doesn't."
"Suppose your right. How the hell are we gonna find he?"
"We're gonna look." They drove around till they saw her car. They parked and went inside. The room had a few people inside, reading or looking around nervously. They walked up to the front desk.
"How can I help you?" asked the woman at the desk.
"Hi," Jackson greeted. "We're looking for an Alexandra Grey. I'm her boyfriend, Derek, and this is her brother, Alex. She asked us to come and we got held up in traffic." The woman nodded and looked at some papers.
"She's in Room 4, down the hall to your right."
"Thank you." They left and went down the hall.
"Dude, Derek? Really?"
"Do you honestly think she'd let me in?" Alex nodded and knocked on the door. The door opened and a woman, most likely a nurse of some sort, looked at them.
"Can I help you?"
"I'm looking for Alexandra Grey. She's my sister and this is her boyfriend, Derek." She turned and said something to someone before stepping to the side.
"Come in." They walked in and saw Lexie, sitting on a table with her to them. The woman left and shut the door behind her.
"Did Jackson tell you?" Lexie asked. "I told him not to, but apparently he doesn't listen."
"Lex…" Alex said, causing her to turn and look at him.
"What the hell are you doing here?"
"Stopping you from making a mistake," Jackson said."
"This is none of your business, and it's not a mistake."
"Yes it is and you know it."
"Just go. I don't want you here."
"Lexie, listen to him. Jackson knows what he's talking about."
"What does he know? What do either of you know?"
"I know you're making a mistake," Jackson said while moving closer. "I know your scared and don't know what to do. I know you think you're alone."
"That's because I am alone."
"No you're not. I can be the cool uncle, and Jackson can be-"
"I can be the dad."
"Jackson-"
"Lexie just listen. You're not far along enough for Alex to be the father, and everyone knows you're too pissed at him to sleep with him."
"So Sloan's the dad?"
"But no one needs to know. You can say we were together right before you got together with Sloan. Just shift the due date back a little."
"I hate to say it, but Avery's making sense." Lexie sighed and closed your eyes.
"I know you all wanna help, but it's too much."
"Oh come on. It's a good idea and you know it. So stop being such an ass and say Avery's the dad." Lexie glared at him before looking at Jackson.
"Are you sure you wanna do this?"
"Yeah, I do."
"I mean it. You can't just say it and then change your mind."
"I won't. I promise." Lexie smiled a little and nodded.
"Ok." Jackson smiled and helped Lexie off the table.
"Lex," Alex said as they were leaving.
"Yeah?"
"Don't forget, you're not alone."
Please tell me what you think, so R&R please!
