Awesome prompt - I still love these two. _______
He hadn't been expecting it. Not after what he had told her earlier that day, about what kind of guy he was and what she could expect of him. No, nothing prepared him for the moment a few hours later when she walked up to him, hands on her hips and a glimmer in her eyes.
"If you don't want to have a drink with me," she offered, raising her eyebrows, "then how about some sex instead?" He laughed, thinking she was joking. But she pursed her lips, dead serious, and waited for his response, and all at once she wasn't the girl he took her for.
What was he supposed to say? No?So Alex took her home (because it's his home too). He tore her clothes off halfway up the stairs, inciting mad giggles and blushing. He ripped the sheet off of his bed and wrapped her in it, trapping her in his arms and pressing her against the wall before moving in for a kiss. Lexie smiled and closed the rest of the distance, eagerly waiting for their lips to crash together for the first time

Oh, my. This was so very Alex. I always liked these two as well, and I'm glad you wrote this.
He spoke, and it was gravelly and cocky with the slightest hint of underlying meaning. "Alex Karev doesn't make mistakes."
That is so Alex that is quite uncanny. Thank you for sharing this. I didn't realize up until now how much I used to like these two. Up until the point where he forgot he slept with her LOL

I love how forward she is in this -- mostly because it's a nice call back to the way she is with Mark in 5x10. Everyone things she is this shiny and bright person, reserved, but I know there's something more to her and you really captures it here.

My Mark and Lexie heart kind of still thinks Lexie and Alex are not as awesome, but in a weird way I did appretiate AL back in the days (So I am not against to read anything from those days, specially as good as this) and I really enjoyed this prompt. You filled the spaces the show missed and they did have potential. Anyway, it's always great to see Mark and Lexie from past and present in order to built them as character and you do have an great understandment of them (Lexie specially). I love it! Alex's line about not making mistakes was great.

You know, I really liked Alex and Lexie together on the show =) And I remember laughing especially hard at the expression on Lexie's face when Meredith opened her door. This was a *great* read XD I especially loved the insights from Alex's POV. Lol, I always wondered how he felt...Awesome job, as usual! =D

I absolutely adore the way you word things. Everything just flows, when you write, and it's a skill I'm particularly envious of.
wonders if you always have to regret your mistakes or if they can just be that thing you did a few times too many and nothing more.
That line specifically for all the implications it brings about and the specific insight into Lexie.
I could so see this happening on the show -- one of those moments we just never got to see -- and I think that is such a testament to how good of a writer you are.

You envy the way my writing flows? I've got news for you hun, but your stuff flows like no other, and that's one of the reasons you are like one of three people whom I religiously read fic from in this fandom. Seriously.
And yeah, I like canonizing everything. It's a habit I've been told I need to break, but in cases like these it actually helps me know what to write, or maybe when to write it contextually.
I'm glad you liked it! Thanks for reading and for doing this :)
