Sexual Healing

[lexiegrey_md]

I sit at the bar at Joe's, drinking silently next to Meredith. Every time the door opens, I turn and glance at the newcomer. It's pretty quiet here tonight. Apparently no one in the health care profession feels like drinking except for me and Meredith. I think she's hoping that Alex will make it here. I think I'm hoping someone else will

I almost spit my drink across the bar when Lexie announces she's going to have sex tonight. It's not something I expected out of her.

"Oh?" I can't think of anything else to say.

"Oh? That's your answer? Oh? You're supposed to talk me out of it, or talk me into it. You're not supposed to say oh."

I wave to Joe, and he quickly makes me another drink.

"I'm sorry that I was a little shocked by that comment."

I take the drink from Joe and take a sip before I set it down.

"The last time I had sex was-well, you know when. I keep waiting, and it's going to become this big thing, this hang up. I don't want it to be a big deal, so I'm just going to rip the band-aid off."
