when it's not the way it's supposed to be

It’s her eyes that kill him, that knock him backwards. Sometimes, he finds himself gasping for breath, because just looking at her is like an unfair sucker punch. He never sees it coming, no matter how hard he tries to prepare himself. mark/lexie -- somewhere in season five, between episodes thirteen and seventeen. one-shot.

Oh I love it. So much happier than they are now. Thanks for taking me back.

Oh, you're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it! It seems we're forced to dwell in the past for the time being...

Thanks! I'm actually working on another Lexie/Mark fic as we speak...
Yes, they're breaking my heart as well! I don't see them getting back together quickly, but I'm hoping they eventually reconcile!

I actually became side-tracked while writing my fic (I'm sure you know how that goes) and ended up writing a random mark/lexie one-shot.

Let me know if you find any good mark/lexie fics...I'm sifting through them all myself.

I cannot get over just how incredible this is. Every word and action exchanged between the two, I can see it perfectly in my head. I just love this couple and the idea of them, just lying in a bed in an on-call room, talking and kissing, that is perfection to me. I love quiet little moments like this between them and that line of Mark thinking she has never been more gorgeous to him than in that moment? I read that over about a hundred times. Fantastic job with this!

Aw, yay! I'm glad you liked it!!! =)
I love these two so much...more than Derek and Meredith even. I can't quite put my finger on what it is about them that's so brilliant, but there's something that I just absolutely adore about these two.
Thanks for reading!
