Mark Sloan
Mark knew he had to get to the hospital as early as 4 am in the morning which he hated, he always hated it although he knew he got paid more. Mark rubbed his eyes as he changed into some sweats and decided to stay shirtless because why not?
..................................
Mark leaned into bed and sighed as his head hit the pillow, already having an alarm set for 3:30 am so he could have a good 30 minutes to get ready.
..................................
Around 12 am, Mark was sound asleep to the point you'd think someone whacked him in the face with a frying pan but that soon changed when he heard the sound of his phone ringing. Mark groaned a little and threw the pillow over his face as he let it ring but once it stopped, it just started again.
..................................
Mark groaned and rubbed his eyes as he leaned up angrily and mumbled to himself, grabbing his phone from the nightstand and clicking to answer.
..................................
"What the hell is so important that I needed to be woken up at 12 in the morning??" He asked, clearly annoyed and not knowing who was on the other end of the call.
..................................
His heart instantly dropped as he heard the small voice that echoed in his ear, "o-oh I'm sorry..I didn't know- I thought you were still up.." she said sadly and Mark just wanted to take that frying pan and actually knock himself out with it for making his girl upset.
..................................
"oh no no! I'm sorry, I thought you were the hospital calling, I'm so sorry for snapping baby.." Mark yawned, clearly tired.
..................................
Lexie Grey
as if Lexie didn't already feel horrible, she now felt ten times worse for waking her secret lover up just because she was having freaking nightmares. Her, a 25 year old grown woman having nightmare and deciding to call her 38 year old boyfriend, secret boyfriend to be exact.
..................................
"I'm sorry for waking you up,.I just- nevermind..I'm just being stupid.." she said with a nervous laugh.
..................................
"I know you, you're usually sleeping by 9 pm so something is clearly up..what's wrong?" Mark asked, more awake now since he wanted Lexie to just be okay.
..................................
"okay, well I'm sorry..again but I'm gonna sound really stupid but..I've been having nightmares, they're just crazy..like, it felt so real and I woke up sweating-" Lexie began to rant as her breathing quickened but Mark quickly cut her off.
..................................
"Hey hey, shhh..it's okay, calm down." Mark said softly, definitely more alert now. "It's not stupid to feel afraid after having a nightmare, no matter what age you are." Mark said in that same soft tone that made Lexie's heart grow no matter how cheesy it sounds.
..................................
"Have you ever had nightmares so bad you couldn't sleep..?" Lexie asked over the phone quietly, hoping to feel a little better if Mark agreed.
..................................
Mark's sigh could be heard from the other end but soon, a voice was heard, "I havent actually but that doesn't mean anything, okay?"
..................................
Lexie frowned but nodding as if Mark could see her, "y-yeah, I guess you're right..well, we gotta be up by 4 so I'll go so you can get some sleep.." before Mark had the chance to reply, Lexie hung up.
..................................
Mark Sloan
no, Mark wasn't going to go to sleep after that. He would be stupid to not check on her. Yes, they were dating in secret but it's because they had reasons. He still loves her though and she loves him
..................................
Mark checked the time which read out to be exactly 12:10 am. He sighed and got out of the comfort of his bed before going to his closet and pulling a grey shirt over his body then going to his fridge where he pulled a chocolate bar out that he was gonna save for after work but he would prefer Lexie to have it if it made her feel better.
..................................
Yawning, Mark grabbed his car keys and other keys before slipping his shoes on and going to his car, driving to Lexie's apartment building.
..................................
Once he was there, He got out the car and grabbed the chocolate bar then went to her room number and knocked gently.
..................................
Lexie Grey
The brunette tossed and turned in her bed after the phone call with Mark but she just couldn't sleep. She went under the blanket, put the pillow up some, tried different positions but nothing worked.
..................................
Just as Lexie gave up on ever sleeping, she heard a knock on the door which instantly made her freeze. Who the hell would be knocking on her door around 12 in the morning?
..................................
"I know you're up, Little Grey. Let me in" Mark said through the door and Lexie let out a breath she didn't know she was holding. Mark seriously drove all the way down here when he should've been sleeping just to make sure she was okay, how sweet is that?
..................................
Lexie got up quickly and ran to the door then unlocked it and Mark instantly walked inside, "so I got you this but then I realized you probably shouldn't have it if you plan on sleeping." Mark said with that same smirk as he went and placed it in the fridge.
..................................
Lexie smiled as she locked the door and turned to look at him, "it's late, what are you doing-" she cut herself off when she saw Mark take his shirt off and get under the covers on her bed.
..................................
Lexie got snapped out of it after hearing that voice once again say, "you just gonna stare or you gonna come get in bed?"
..................................
"you're different, why?" Lexie asked with an eyebrow raised as she went and got under the covers with him.
..................................
"Listen Lex, I know I said we should keep this relationship hidden but that doesn't mean I don't care and you called me because you were scared, now what kind of boyfriend would I be if I let you be all scared and alone?" He asked, wrapping an arm around her small waist and pulling her into his body.
..................................
The small brunette let out a tiny laugh and shrugged, "well it's really nice of you to come here and comfort me but we only have a few hours of sleep now" Lexie said, sighing.
..................................
Mark placed a soft kiss to the top of her head and stroked her hair, "then go to sleep, I'll be here when you go to sleep and I'll be here when you wake up." He whispered into her soft long hair and stroked up and down her arm that was slung over his chest.
..................................
after a few minutes, Lexie's tiny snores filled the small apartment and Mark couldn't help but to smile.
..................................
"I can definitely get used to this.." he whispered to himself before sleep consumed him as well.
..................................
Morning time (Everyone)
The sound of an alarm could be heard from Lexie's side of the bed and Mark groaned when he realized it was 3 am, of course she'd need the whole hour to get ready. He rolled his eyes but got up and went over to turn it off.
..................................
what he didn't understand was that she was still asleep even after he moved her to the side and the alarm blared loudly. He couldn't help but to chuckle as he bent over her body and left kisses all around her face, "come on baby, you gotta get ready for work.." he whispered.
..................................
Lexie awoke from the feeling of kisses being left on her tiny cheeks. It scared her for a split second until she realized..Mark was in her house. She opened her eyes slowly to be greeted with a firm kiss on the lips by him.
..................................
"I could definitely get used to waking up like that" Lexie said with a laugh and Mark rolled his eyes playfully but smirked, "me too, now get up and get ready little grey before I kick your little ass" Mark laughed.
..................................
Lexie gasped then got up quickly and went to the closet, pulling out some leggings and a hoodie before walking to her bathroom but stopped and turned around, "you of all people should know that it's not little" and with that, she turned and closed the bathroom door with a tiny giggle that made Mark smile softly, gosh he loved hearing those dorky little giggles.
..................................
After Lexie put some clothes on and some perfume and brushed her teeth and hair, she went back out to her bathroom and to the bedroom to grab her makeup but a strong hand grabbed hers.
..................................
now usually Mark agreed that makeup made women hotter, that is just who he was..WAS, with Lexie..he thinks everything about her from her toes to her head is insanely gorgeous. "Don't wear makeup when you don't need it." Is all he said before going over to put his shirt on.
..................................
Lexie blushed and thought about it for a moment but she was still insecure and put just some eyeliner and lipstick on, nothing too serious.
..................................
"Lex, I need to go to my place so I can change my clothes and brush me teeth so no one gets too suspicious" he said calmly which made Lexie's face drop.
..................................
"You have an extra tooth brush here from when you stayed a few nights ago but..would it really be bad if people found out about us..?" She asked curiously.
..................................
Mark looked at the little pout that formed on Lexie's face and he felt guilt wash over him, "you know it's because youre-"
..................................
"I know! I'm little grey, Meredith's Little sister..the one Derek told you to stay away from but I want to be your girlfriend, I want people to know I'm your girlfriend..I'm tired of hiding behind closed doors just because people say we can't be with each other. I'm 24 and your 37, so what? It's not illegal" Lexie said sadly.
..................................
Mark sighed and ran his hand through his hair as he thought for a moment. Maybe she was right and since when did Mark Sloan listen to rules? If he was gonna be with Lexie Grey then he will be with Lexie Grey.
..................................
Before Lexie had time to process anything, Mark was up and kissing her deeply before pulling away and kissing her head, "okay" he said simply.
..................................
Lexie raised an eyebrow but thought for a moment and a wide smile grew, "okay??" She asked hopefully and Mark nodded with a smirk before taking her hand and locking their fingers.
..................................
"okay" Mark repeated softly. And with that, they were out the door.
