i think i'm just as frustrated with this as i am with the show. and i think it shows. but i tried damn hard.

Never let it be said that Cristina Yang does things half-assed.

She supposes a similar statement could be made for Alex and it’s a bit of a comfort -- if she was really looking for that sort of thing -- that the same thing holds true for the both of them. When they cut, they do it straight to the bone.

And really, she’s just tired of being told she’s doing the wrong thing, being treated as if she was just as green as the day she walked in these doors for the first time, being jerked around by a guy who brought her a cardio god in the form of his almost-girlfriend.

Alex’s thing…well it’s all about Izzie. It’s always been all about Izzie. Most of the time she finds it pathetic. Sometimes it angers her. It makes her hate him, that he can let himself get so wrapped up someone. He should’ve learned by now, that it never turns out well.

(Really, they should’ve learned by now, but she’s not about to go so far as admitting that part out loud).

People like to play out revenge scenarios in their minds. They’re feeling ignored, they’re feeling slighted, they’re feeling some other complicated emotion that Cristina doesn’t feel like delving into.

Her and Alex just took that one step further. Because they don’t do things half-assed.

Instead they do things in her apartment where she knows full well Callie and Arizona will notice, will hear, will spill to Owen either by accident or out of some sense of obligation to tell him, because he’s their friend too. It’s a risk she’s willing to take and it’s a risk that means absolutely nothing to him.

There’s no one for this to get back to, for him. Not anymore.

He pushes into her and says a whole host of inappropriate things into her ear, against her skin, and he calls her ‘Yang’ like this is just part of their daily conversation. She keeps her eyes open and looks straight at him and asks aloud if this is the best he can do. They push and poke and prod and piss each other off but at least they’re not kidding themselves.

They’re not trying to fool themselves into thinking that this is something it isn’t, or that they’re with someone they’re not.

This is all a means to an end and they’re just pressing the fast forward button for lack of anything else to do about it, for want of a sense of control that keeps evading them.

HAWT. This is exactly what I was looking for. I swear to God if I had any sort of talent writing Alex I would write the dirtiest porniest Alex/Cristina smut ever.

Thanks! I love it! ♥

Wow! I could never think of a scenario where something like Alex/Cristina happens, but this is perfect. And it's not really an Alex/Cristina thing anyway. You got their characters so right and even though I can't imagine the show to go there, you could :) And you did a great job. The last line is so so perfect!

I secretly ship them sometimes. It's a thing, and I'm such an Alex fan that I ship him with everyone if the opportunity presents itself. I'm glad that this worked for you, even if you could never see the show going there (I can't either, but who knows).

I'm glad you liked this! Thanks for reading and reviewing!
