Running into the room Lexie began to try to catch herself up to speed. "How long has she been down?" She asked with urgency evident in her voice but still level headed.

"About 3 minutes." A voice stated.

"Push one of epi." She stated as she began to do compressions on the woman's chest. "Charge to 300. Clear." Looking at the monitor she didn't see a change. "Again. Clear." Again, nothing. "Again." The process repeated over and over for what felt like hours but what was actually only a few minutes. Looking at the monitor, the rhythm hadn't changed. It was too late. Lexie backed up and stopped running the code. "Time of death, 19:47." Lexie does the room to go and talk to the family, finding herself in an on call room shortly after.

"Rough day?" Lexie heard a voice say from somewhere in the room. She immediately identified it as Mark's.

"Oh, I-I didn't know someone was in here. I'll go..." Lexie went to open the door keeping her voice low and quiet trying to mask the cracks.

"No. You don't have to. Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." She looked to Mark. "Sarah Holland- that car crash victim- she died."

Mark sat up on the bed, his features softened. "What happened?"

"Air embolism. She died almost instantly. There was nothing we could of done but somehow- somehow I feel like this is my fault." Lexie shook her head. "And now, she has a daughter, who needs nothing more than her mother right now. And now she doesn't have one. Yet another child brought into the world without both parents."

"Come here." Mark urged as he pat the bed next to him. Lexie was about to resist but she gave in before. "What's this really about?"

"I don't- I don't know." Lexie sighed. "Everything that's going on with Brooklyn- it's just- it's eating away at me."

"What you need is to clear your head."

Lexie scoffed lightly. "Yeah. How do you expect me to do that?"

Mark cocked his head and brushed her hair back from her face. "I might have a couple of ideas. That is, if you're up for them?" Mark gave a playful grin.

Lexie shot a sly smile at Mark. "Mhm, and what might those be?"

Mark leaned in kissing her lips lightly. "Something like that." He leaned in again. "Or this."

Lexie took this as her chance. "What about this?" She asked as she pushed him back onto the bed straddling him before leaning over and kissing him more aggressive than he did her. Before too long clothes began to come off article by article, person by person. Sex with Mark is something that Lexie had forgotten that she missed but now that it was back she was sure she would miss it again. They had always been good together. It was something that she hadn't experienced with anyone else.

Brooklyn was wandering around the hospital aimlessly. She had been back and forth between hanging out in the NICU and trying to find other things to do. This time she ran into Sofia. They hadn't talked since the news. Brooklyn didn't think they were avoiding each other. She hadn't been avoiding her but they hadn't talked. "Hey." Brooklyn smiled walking over the familiar girl that was technically her sister.
