So, here's a little background about this story -
Mark and Lexie are still living their lives. Julia and Mark are together, and Lexi feels alone most of the time in her new apartment. Lexie begins to rethink a lot of her decisions about the future...
Meredith drove her and Lexie back to Mer and Dericks house, giving them an hours notice until the party started. They carry the bags inside, and Lexie greets each of Meredith's children with a smile and a hug
Ellis - "auntie Wexie" she cries out, running towards Lexie with a smile
Lexie - "hey sweetie, are you okay?" She says softly, lifting Ellis from the ground
Ellis - "me has missed you auntie wex" she struggled to pronounce, as she interlocked her hands around Lexies neck
Lexie squeezed Ellis extra tightly, and breathed in the scent of the tiny toddler who she had gained such a loving relationship with before her downfall.
The other children gave their hugs to Lexie, before all getting ready for the party
Lexie went to the bathroom, and slipped on her gold dress again, avoiding the small mirror above the sink. She walked out, with her curling iron in order to curl her hair to make her look and feel slightly more acceptable for a celebration.
Meredith - " Lexie you really do look beautiful" she says, strolling past Lexie and putting in her earrings as she does so.
Lexie - "thank you Mer, I'm feeling a lot better after your encouragement" she smiles
Before Meredith can continue, Ellis runs in excitedly ready to announce something

Ellis - "auntie wexie, pweaseee can you do my hair like yours?" She asks looking up at lexie with her big green eyes
Meredith - "she's all yours" and she smiles as she walks out of the room
Lexie - "Of course I can sweetie, come and sit down here, I'm pretty much done with mine"
and Ellis sits in the chair, smiling at herself in the mirror. Lexie takes a brush and combs through her hair gently, watching herself also in the mirror.
Ellis - "auntie wex?" She questions
Lexie - "yes sweetie?"
Ellis - "you're so pretty. " she says staring at a dolled up Lexie in the mirror taking her eyes away from her own reflection
Lexie doesn't say anything, just smiles brightly and continues brushing through the few knots in Ellis' hair. As she starts to curl her hair, she looks in the mirror again at the tiny little human who loved her so much, and she began to think about being a mom. Lexie had always dreamed of being a mother, but hadn't thought about it in months. In this moment, she certainly thought about it, and then she thought of Mark and how great he'd be as a father...Father. Then, Lexies thoughts became dark as she thought of the greeting she had had with her own earlier that day. But before Lexie could run away and never return, Ellis interrupted her thoughts....
Ellis - "wow! It wooks so good auntie wex! I hope I can look like you one day" she says tucking a curled piece of her thin hair behind her ear smiling.
