The Slexie Love Story

Viral!

      I head toward the bathroom. People were passing by me but I kept my head down. I get to the bathroom and I sit on the floor for a bit. I managed to get my emotions in a bundle and calm myself down. I plopped my things down on the counter and sat on the floor. I hear the stall doors open, 2 nurses come out and just stare at me. "Shows over, move along" I say to them. They wash their hands and walk out. I sit by the door, trying to block out anybody who tries to get in. I feel the door trying to open. "Take a hint!" I yell, i then got up and creaked open the door. I excepted to see the 2 nosy nurses, instead there was Mark. He had followed me but frankly I was too wrapped up in my emotions to notice. "Oh it's you", I say, opening the door a slight bit wider. "Are you okay? Those nurses practically came out running. What happened in the ER?" He says, I could tell he was worried but I didn't care. He didn't tell me the truth. He let me make a fool in front of my friends and the hospital. He was the last person I wanted to see. "I'm fine, just go away." I replied and closed the door. I locked it to make sure he wouldn't come in. Or anyone in fact. "If you're fine then open the door.", he yells thru the door, he tried opening it and then realized it was locked. "Fine, be like that." He says, I hear footsteps walking away, then I hear talking. I walk up to the mirror and clean up because I looked like a wreck. And then I hear keys in the lock, the door opens and in comes Mark. "What did you pick the lock?", I say annoyed.

"Well no, the janitor has keys to every room in the building." He says, I could tell he was proud of that. I grab my things and walk out, I just wanted to go home. I wanted to crawl into my bed which I wasn't even sure I could do. It's not my home, it's Meredith's home, which I assume she's not even talking to me. Mark yet, continues to follow me. I stop at the residents lounge and drop off my things and I'm so tired, I don't even get dressed, I leave the residents lounge with my scrubs, Mark was waiting outside for me. "Where are you going?" He asks me. "Home. Or the bar. I don't know, all I know is I want to leave.", I keep walking and Mark grabs my arm. "Talk to me. What's wrong?", he asks me. It seemed like he had enough of this. Well guess what. So have I. "What's wrong? Really? You let me make a fool of myself all day. I risked my friendships for you," I say frustrated.

"I never asked you to. What is this really about?", he says.

"You slept with Derek's wife! And you didn't tell me! You let me help you, you even asked me out and I let you because I thought you were charming and cute? Well guess what, I'm over it." I yelled, we were arguing in the middle of the hallway. Nurses, Surgeons, even patients were everywhere. I look back at Mark and he has a surprised look in his face. As if he couldn't believe I was capable of doing that. I turn around and keep walking. I could tell Mark wasn't following me this time. And I don't blame him. I walk to the parking lot and sit in my car for a bit, I get a notification on my phone. It's Jackson.

Jackson: Hey, you've gone viral! What the hell happened today?!

Me: What are you talking about?

Jackson: Check this out.
Attachment: 3 videos

       I could not believe what I was looking at. It was 3 videos of the ER. I looked like a complete maniac, yelling at them like that. I drove home and kept replaying and replaying it all in my head again and again. I arrive home and see Alex and Izzie's car in the parking. "Great" i say to myself. I grab my bag and and enter the house, I was really hoping they would be asleep by now but they were in the kitchen, I walk toward the voices and see April sitting with Izzie and Alex  all sitting together. Everybody else wasn't home yet and I was so glad. I could tell they were talking about me. But even then, they didn't seem as pissed as I expected.

"You want a beer?", Alex asks.

"Hell yeah." I say as I take the beer bottle. I take a huge sip and we all sat down and acted like nothing happened. I just pray that this all blows over.

3 hours later...

        It feels like we had been talking forever. I check my phone and see that it's 1:02 am, I am exhausted so I head upstairs and go to bed. Except I couldn't sleep. All I could think about was the hell I was gonna go they the next day.
