This story takes place five years later, when a chance meeting reignites feelings both parties thought had long since been laid to rest. 
Rating: pg-13
Author's Notes: 16,408 words. Written for het_bigbang. General series spoilers, but veers off into AU territory after 5x24. No further plot points are taken into account here. SOOOOO. The season finale happened this spring. And even though I haven't watched this show in years it still managed to rip my heart out and shred it to pieces.This is the ending I wish so very much these two characters could have recieved. In fact, this is my offical head!canon because Mark and Lexie of season five deserved so, so much more than the cards they were dealt. Thank you to leobrat for that early look and justforyoudear for the beta.

Rating: pg-13
Author's Notes: 5,819 words. Set in between seasons five and six. It's mostly a Lexie character piece with Mark thrown in because he was a major part of her life during this time. Don't let it throw you off if you aren't a Mark/Lexie fan, but a Lexie fan, 'kay? This story has been my baby for about 6 months. General series spoilers. HUGE thank-you to justforyoudear  for the hand-holding and convincing me that this wasn't completely crap. All mistakes are mine. These characters, however, are not. Con-crit is both welcome and appreciated.

Title: Sometimes We Lose Ourselves in the Uptake
