Entry tags:!complete, andy gallagher, day 18, lexie grey, location: in town, open

Day 18, 10:21 AM
Who: Lexie Grey and OTA
What: Wandering around in a big, yellow rain coat
Where: In town, nearest landmark the Pharmacy
When: Day 18, 10:21 AM
Rating: It's Lexie, PG is probably safe

Status: Active

Lexie Grey had been dropped off at the gym at approximately 4:20AM. It'd taken her that long to gather her senses and realize just where she was - which was no longer in that apartment with people she either barely knew or was out and out afraid of. Instead, she had been dropped off in the woods with everyone else; whom she very expeditiously serperated from. So, it wasn't safe to be alone? Well, she'd take her chances. Sure, Sarah Jane at least seemed nice enough. The rest of them? Flipping creepy. Well, except Ianto. Ianto was at least personable, too. 

Lexie had slipped into the gym, feeling like a ghost. She'd managed past the cots and down the hall whisper quiet, peaking into her room to see Dean there, asleep. He hadn't been sleeping so she thought it best not to wake him; it wouldn't be right. No, she'd talk to him soon enough, time to let the poor guy rest. It was enough that he was in fact all right. Everyone else in the sleepy town? Well, something told her that Dean wouldn't be sleeping if all wasn't quiet on the western wall. 

So, she was back out the main door and on her way to the pharmacy. She needed to stock up on some things. And then it started to rain. Ridiculously. Making a beeline for the thrift shop she wandered the aisles. No umbrellas. However, she did find a bright yellow slicker, kind of like the sort of thing the Gordon's fisherman wore and she pulled it on, immediately wincing as the smell of old rubber hit her senses. It smelt bad, and she cuild even taste it as it clung to her tongue. Wonderful. It was better than being wet, she supposed.

Back out the door, a pharmacy basket in the crook of her arm as she started down the path in the direction of the gym once more.

Andy couldn't quite put his finger on it, but there seemed to be something different about the way Lexie grinned. It seemed, for the first time maybe, to be genuine. Maybe that last experiment had been exactly what Lexie needed. Actually, the more he thought about it, the more Andy thought it was. Lexie had been so busy trying to keep her strong disposition in the face of awful things, trying to make it look like deep down she was okay when she wasn't, he thought, that maybe the experiment in which she'd been stuck in the bunker apartment, able to actually eat and shower - and from the sounds of it, get a good night's rest - had been all she needed to relax just a little. It was nice to see a genuine grin.

All Andy could think about as he looked back at her, even as he tried to ignore it, was how much more beautiful it made her look. He'd probably never have the balls to say it out loud to her face, but it made him smile back at her anyway.

Lexie said she'd like to see the van and Andy felt an almost ridiculous swell of pride in his chest. Even if it looked kind of like a bad wannabe love nest, it was comfortable; it was home. It would be like taking Lexie back to his place, because really...that's exactly what he'd be doing. Nodding in the direction from which he'd come, Andy made a mental note to hit up the pharmacy later. "Come on, I'll show you and then I'll drive you back to the gym, if you want. Save you the walk," he suggested.

Lexie's smile was usually pretty genuine only because she'd never learned to fake one properly. Some people from birth knew how to smile when they felt absolutely terrible - Lexie Grey was not one of those people. She also couldn't say she wasn't hungry when she really was; but, that was another problem entirely.

When Andy smiled back it made her feel a little bit better; as if the awkwardness was melting away and maybe they could get back to being friends. Had they stopped being friends? Maybe things had just gone on the road of odd and now they were back on track to normal. Yeah, that sounded good.

"Yeah?" She smiled to his offer, shifting the basket she was carrying from one hand to the other. "Sounds great," she smiled, turning a bit in the direction he'd indicated. "It's not too much trouble, right?"
