Ally, this was simply amazing. And so beautiful. I could picture it perfectly in my head. Mark and Lexie sitting on the bed, Mark trying to talk but Lexie just holding his hands, staring at them. I loved all of her internal thoughts. I absolutely love writing Lexie and I love fics that delve into her inner thoughts like this. Great job, Ally! I really enjoyed this! And can I just say that I am so happy you are writing M/L again? Because I am super happy :D

Thank you so much, Katie. I am so thrilled you loved how it flowed and could actually picture it. I love when people are able to picture it. I've never really delved too much into Lexie's thoughts but this was fun and I enjoyed writing this. :) Awww, thank you. I am super happy to be writing them also. I actually sent this to a writing professor who is a friend of mine and she gave me an idea how how to possibly continue it. What do you think? Would you want to read a continuation of this?

Great way to capture this moment between them!

Thank you so much! And thank you for taking the time to read and comment. It means so much to me. ♥

This is gorgeous.

I think it can sometimes be tempting as a writer to separate the sweetness of a relationship from the harder realities a couple faces, but it's so much more meaningful (and that much more romantic, actually) when the two coexist - and you've done a wonderful job with this.

I loved how Lexie didn't flinch from any of the truths of the situation; but through this loved Mark even more. The way you use their hands (her examining his; the contrast; his grip tightening on hers) is really masterly and very beautiful. I also had a very strong visual sense of everything happening; and you used 2nd person very well to dig into Lexie's introspection.

Awesome work. Thank you so much for writing it for me &hearts

Thank you so very much. I am so beyond thrilled that you liked it. I was nervous since I look up to you when writing so writing a prompt for you was a wonderful experience.

I'm glad you loved the hands. Masterful and beautiful? Wow, I think I just fell out of my seat. Hearing that from you means the world to me! ♥ I cannot even tell you. This was the first time I've ever attempted 2nd person so I am so glad it worked for you! :)

You're so very welcome, and thank YOU for prompting me with it. Feel free to prompt me anytime you want. I want to get back into writing Mark and Lexie more often. :)

I actually sent this to a writing professor I know and she gave me an idea of how to continue it, or to work more with it. I wanted to see what you thought of that.

I'm intrigued. To me it seems like one of those one shots that is complete around a central idea; and I'd love to know how a writing professor would go about expanding it, partly because this is something I have no idea how to do. (I can almost never write sequels / extend stories I have conceived this way.)

If you do continue, I would love to read.

I was intrigued when she gave me the idea also, however she doesn't know anything about or watch Grey's, so I'm not sure if it could work. I could try it though and see what you think!

Coming from you, that means A LOT! Thank you! :)
