a shield is not enough to protect the most important things.

@twelvcmilcs once her lab coat was off and tossed onto the floor, he worked with her to get his own off, letting it fall onto the floor before his hands moved to the bottom of her scrub top.
he pulled it up and over her head, breaking their kiss to do so before immediately leaning back in.

[𝒋𝒂̲𝒄̲𝒆̲. @earnestempathy]

@twelvcmilcs he moaned into her mouth when she deepened the kiss, hands frantically moving to take off her lab coat.
wary of the fact they might not have much time, but also just needing to feel her in that moment.

𝐏𝐒𝐀.
this account will be shipped with @earnestempathy as a main ship and @medicooptimist as an au/side ship. anything that is marked with:

[ au ]* is in the au ship between lexie + elliot. in default ( unless stated otherwise ) lexie is with jace.

[𝒋𝒂̲𝒄̲𝒆̲. @earnestempathy]

@twelvcmilcs he hoped she’d know what he needed and wanted in that moment, because he knew they couldn’t waste anytime.
he wrapped his arms around her and lifted her up off the ground, pulling her body impossibly close to his as he pushed her up against the nearest wall while kissing her.

[𝒋𝒂̲𝒄̲𝒆̲. @earnestempathy]

@twelvcmilcs “okay, good.”
he said with a soft grin on his face as he stood up when she did, making sure to push his chair back before following her into the supply closet.
“more than you’ll ever know.” he whispered before immediately leaning in to connect their lips in a deep kiss.

[𝒋𝒂̲𝒄̲𝒆̲. @earnestempathy]

@twelvcmilcs “okay.”
he nodded before scooting even closer so his hands could rest on her hips, his thumbs brushing over the top of her scrub pants. “i love you so much.” he whispered softly.
“are you almost done with that work?” he asked as he pointed to the scans.

[𝒋𝒂̲𝒄̲𝒆̲. @earnestempathy]

@twelvcmilcs “of course i do? i know you wouldn’t do that with anyone else. that elliot was an exception.”
he explained with a shrug, biting his lower lip as he looked into her eyes when her forehead rested against his. “don’t apologise.” he said softly.

[𝒋𝒂̲𝒄̲𝒆̲. @earnestempathy]

@twelvcmilcs he frowned slightly when she tensed up, nodding his head as she spoke.
“i trust you. i trust you so much, that sometimes it scares me.” he admitted quietly. “i didn’t think i’d find anything like this when i moved to seattle. but i have? and so quickly too?”

[𝒋𝒂̲𝒄̲𝒆̲. @earnestempathy]

@twelvcmilcs was prepared for something to happen last night. i’ve done my processing. all i need ( you ) * to do is promise me that nothing else will happen between you and elliot.”

[𝒋𝒂̲𝒄̲𝒆̲. @earnestempathy]

@twelvcmilcs he watched her with his eyebrows furrowed before listening to her, his face relaxing from the reassurance that there was no competition.
“if there’s no competition, i don’t need to process ( anything ) *.” he said softly as he looked at her, scooting his chair closer to her.
“i

[𝒋𝒂̲𝒄̲𝒆̲. @earnestempathy]

@twelvcmilcs he knew this was hard for her, so he didn’t pull away when her hand rested on his leg, just staring at her for a moment.
“i’m not sure, lexie. i do really love you, so much.” he explained.
“but what if what you have with elliot is something that i can’t compete with?” he asked.

[𝒋𝒂̲𝒄̲𝒆̲. @earnestempathy]

@twelvcmilcs this leave us?” he asked.

[𝒋𝒂̲𝒄̲𝒆̲. @earnestempathy]

@twelvcmilcs he listened to her, his eyebrows immediately furrowing at her words. of course he was hurt by the confession, but he was also angry.
he thought he could trust elliot enough to not make a move, but he was wrong.
“okay.” he nodded slowly, thinking for a moment. “so … where does

[𝒋𝒂̲𝒄̲𝒆̲. @earnestempathy]

@twelvcmilcs “yeah— he kind of confessed it to anyone who would listen what i assume was just before he told you.”
he explained as he let out a shaky breath, running his fingers through his hair. “how did it make you feel?” he asked

[𝒋𝒂̲𝒄̲𝒆̲. @earnestempathy]

@twelvcmilcs he frowned a little when lexie refused to look at him, clearing his throat before biting his lower lip.
“i’m fine. what did you want to talk about?” he asked with his head tilted.

[𝒋𝒂̲𝒄̲𝒆̲. @earnestempathy]

@twelvcmilcs he moved towards lexie to take a seat next to her, letting out a soft chuckle as he shrugged.
“fifteen minutes, actually. like i promised.” he admitted before his eyebrow raised. “you okay?” he asked.

[𝒋𝒂̲𝒄̲𝒆̲. @earnestempathy]

@twelvcmilcs as promised, he’s making his way to the radiology mri room fifteen minutes later after leaving his interns to check over his patients.
he walked into the room and closed the door behind him before looking at lexie. “hey.”
