when love hurts
Mark had to talk to Lexie and he knew how to. He had Kepner page her. He knew that if she was paged at the pit, she would come ten times faster. So he waited, sitting on bed 8 with the curtain closed so she wouldn't suspect anything.
"Where do you need me?" He heard her say.
"Bed 8," April responded.
Mark heard footsteps coming toward him. Lexie opened the curtains and smirked.
"Did you break your penis again? Because if so, I don't think you need a neuro consult." She said.
"Why do you even... it doesn't matter." He looked at her and he asked himself one last time if she could really do that to him. Didn't she told him she loved? She couldn't have done that to someone she loved. "We need to talk."
"I'm sorry Mark but I got paged for a consult. April probably made a mistake and gave me the wrong bed number." She was about to walk out. He had to say something. Didn't he want to know the truth?
"Lex, are Brian and Leslie mine?" He blurted it out. He couldn't wait anymore. He had to know.
"What...?" She was shocked. How could he know? "Why would you think that? I wouldn't do that, keep my children apart from their father. What kind of person do you think I am?"
"You're someone I hurt. What I made you go through was unbearable, but if you kept them from me. If you hide them so that you wouldn't have to face me. It would be worst." He took a deep breath. He knew that if he went down that ride there was no coming back. "You're the one who supported me when Sloane came back, you knew better than anyone how I felt when I learned that her mother had kept her from me. To know that you would do that to me, that you would even think of keeping me from the truth. It would be unbearable and I don't know if I could trust you ever again."
What Mark had just told her made her angry. Yes, she did knew how it affected him. She knew it better than anyone because he chose the daughter that he barely knew over her. He hurt her, without thinking of how she would be affected. But now he was using all the pain he had inflicted her against her.
All her children's life she had tried her best to keep them from the pain she suffered. Even if that meant that they never would meet their father. And now, he was telling her that what she did was wrong. Her job as a mother was to keep her children safe and that's what she had done. He couldn't blame her for that.
She couldn't control herself anymore. She had done that for the past 6 years. Maybe he was right to blame her for keeping Leslie and Brian safe, but she also had the right to blame him for her crushed heart and all the pain she had felt years ago. She exploded.
"I'm sorry, I'm the one to not be trusted?! Do I have to make you remember everything I've been through? You left me there, then when I asked to go back into your life you couldn't bear that I had slept once with someone else while you were in LA screwing Addison over and over again? Is there something I'm not understanding here? You left me heartbroken like garbage. You knocked up your best friend and expected me to take it like everything was fine when you knew I wanted to build a family with you. I... I..."
He cut her off.
"You wanted to build a family with me? You could've called me when you learned you were pregnant, but no, it was too hard." He yelled back.
