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.
@medicooptimist βwe always have.β
she reassured and moved to lie back down on her back, watching the fire from above her head, her hands readjusted to rest on his arm that was draped over her. βbut things are never as scary when Iβm with you.β
[ au ]*
after a tough conversation with jace, she immediately left the hospital and made her way to lennonβs knowing thatβs where @medicooptimist was hiding out; thanks to his sisterβs intel. the rain was beating down unrelentingly, she hadnβt been lucky enough to avoid +
@medicooptimist βIβm glad we finally found our way back to each other.β
she whispered again before moving against him to gently peck his lips, resting her forehead against his for a moment. βeven if things are slightly more complicated now.β
@medicooptimist she moved closer and pressed her body up against his.
βI missed you every single day.β she admitted quietly as one of her hands moved to rest on his neck, her thumb caressing his jawline as her eyes flicked to his lips momentarily before returning to his eyes.
@medicooptimist βI canβt wait.β
she smiled softly as she moved across the blankets so she was lying on her side directly eye level with him to make the conversation easier. βthen itβs officialβ we are official.. again.β
she scrunched up her nose with a genuine smile, biting her lower lip.
@medicooptimist βoh, completely yes? you mentioned a diamond ring?β
she teased again and rested her hands over her stomach, fully relaxing as she bit her bottom lip. βI want it to be. as long as you want it to be and itβs something that will make you happy?β
@medicooptimist βyouβre kidding, right? that was the whole reason I chose you?β
she teased, her playfulness seeping out as she moved her head to glance over to him. βso is that what this is? officially a relationship?β she asked in curiosity as her brow arched a little.
@medicooptimist βyou know, that stops today. youβre going to be leaving a trail of broken hearts, Iβm sure but * ( youβre ) spoken for now.β
she reminded and grinned before climbing down onto the blanket, lying on her back with her head on one of the cushions. βoh? youβre working on a +
@medicooptimist she heard his comment but decided to wait until he returned to response. her eyes watched him the moment he reappeared into the room and set up the coffee table.
βif I recall last night correctly, * ( you ) were the one who mentioned marriage? so pretty boy, whereβs my +
@medicooptimist βa lifetime of fun.β
she called back from her spot in front of the fire. after successfully getting it going, she stood up and grabbed all of the blankets and pillows she could find, scattering them on the ground a safe distance from the flame.
@medicooptimist halting quickly when he stopped on the bottom step, she nodded and arched a brow.
βokay, ellβ five minutes, go.β
she grinned and then jumped off of the bottom step, running into the lounge before kneeling down to begin working on the fire.
@medicooptimist βyeah, I know that most of them need to mind their own business.β
she admitted and scrunched her nose before following after elliot, down the staircase before moving into the lounge. βIβll get the fire ready, you get snacks and drinks?β
@medicooptimist βohβ mel mentioned there was gossip around the hospital about us? which, doesnβt entirely make sense.β
she said softly and took the hoodie, pulling it over her head with a nod, getting comfortable in it.
βIβm ready.β
@medicooptimist βcertain people? how many people did you tell?β
she asked as she looked to elliot, trying not to laugh as she let go of her hands and ran her hands through her wet hair, scrunching up her nose. βdo you have a hoodie? and Iβm not sure. she wouldnβt tell me.β
@medicooptimist βvery funny. mine was more romantic; it was in the rain. romantic movie type scenario.β
grinning she freed herself of her pants and quickly reached to grab the new dry pair, pulling them up and tying up the drawstring belt as tight as possible. βshe seemed okay, maybe a +
@medicooptimist βI laid my heart out on a plate for you. thatβs always scary.β
she said, seeing him freeze which made her chuckle slightly as she knelt down to kick off her pants, reaching her hands out to him for balance. βI saw lennon at work, where is everyone else? but yes, Iβd like that.β
@medicooptimist βI needed to talk to you and it couldnβt wait. plus, I knew if I waited Iβd be too scared and wouldnβt actually do what I wanted to.β
she explained and unclasped her bra, tossing it to him before grabbing the shirt and pulling it on over her head.
