For The Record, I'm Not Sorry

"Oh,shit!" he cried out, holding his eye.

"Aviana!" the Chief and Bailey shouted. Alex and Derek shared a small laugh while I glared at Mark who was now on the ground. My ex boyfriend gave a laugh then stood up, grinning at me before he stated, "You've always had one hell of a right hook."

"And you've always been a bastard." I spat, crossing my arms over my chest. Webber huffed then barked,"Okay, that's enough. Parker, meet me in my office. Dr. Sloan, Dr. Grey will clean you up and give you sutures cause it seems Parker got a pretty good hit on you."

"I'll see you in your office then." I started to walk up the steps before I stopped and looked over my shoulder then said,"By the way, you deserved that." I sat in front of Webber's desk with my arms crossed over my chest and a frown chiseled into my features, while I waited slightly anxious for my consequences.

I heard the door shut and I knew Webber was staring at me in disbelief but I didn't even try to defend myself. After all, there was no point. Instead, I stated, "For the record, I'm not sorry. So, whatever my punishment will be, I'll take it because he deserved that."

"Why exactly did he deserve that then? If I find the reason is justified, then your punishment won't be as severe." he replied, sitting behind the desk. So, I decided to go ahead and spill the entire story. From Manhattan to here. I even slipped my drug use in which Mark is to blame for.

He went silent for several minutes then looked up with haunted eyes before he stated, "Alright. A week out of the ER. You'll be on an attending's service and it won't be Sloan's. But you will not see the inside of an OR unless it's an emergency. Do you understand?" I nodded then left the office,only to find my friends waiting just outside of the office for me.

"What are you guys doing up here?" I asked, shocked. Cristina shrugged and replied,"We were curious to see why you hit McSteamy."

"Cause he's a bastard and a cheater." Derek answered for me as he climbed up the steps behind us. Payton glared at him then snapped,"He may be all of that-"

"He's also a jackass and a womanizing manwhore." I added, turning back to her.

"But he's still my brother." Cristina looked over at Payton with a shocked expression then demanded,"You're related to McSteamy? Damn! You look nothing like him!"

"He's my half brother." the British girl mumbled, crossing her arms over her chest.

"He seems like an asshole." Izzie grumbled, shrugging. Meredith nodded and added,"A smug one at that."

"So what was your punishment for hitting him?" Alex asked, standing up. Everyone followed suit,eager for results, so I spilled the beans about my deal with Webber and they all agreed that it was a fair deal.

"Wait,then who is the attending?" Cristina asked, turning towards the office in curiosity. I frowned, realizing that I didn't ask who my attending would be for a week, then went to head back inside to ask who's service I would be attending to when Webber walked out and called, "Parker, consider yourself Dr. Burke's bitch for the next week."

The blood ran from my face and everyone went silent after the announcement.

"Can I just die already?" I whimpered, falling to my knees dramatically. Meredith put a hand on my shoulder and stated, "It won't be so bad. Burke loves having you as an intern. Just do what he tells you and maybe you'll survive the week."

Everyone agreed and I felt a little better but to fully raise my spirits, I decided to go see Miska and Mariah. I lifted them out of the cribs then sat down in the rocking chair, smiling softly at them as I leaned back and forth, causing the chair to do the same.

"Are they your's?" Mark's voice interrupted my calm state. Immediately, my mood shifted from happy to really pissed off in a matter of seconds. Do you guys know anyone like that? My eyes flickered from my babies' precious faces then up to his now sutured up face. By the like of it, I did somewhat of a good job by hitting him. Go me!

"Yeah. They're mine. 34 weeks old actually." I answered, deciding to stay a bit more civil with him since I had the girls in my arms. He claimed a stray chair then turned it backwards before sitting down, facing me. He leaned a little closer with furried together eyebrows before he declared,"They look a lot like you. Lemme guess though. Two different fathers?"

"Unfortunately for the dads, yeah. I slept with the one while I was drunk and slept with the other the next day." Mark raised an eyebrow and let out a low whistle then stated, "Goddamn, Annie, you get around." I narrowed my eyes at him then snapped,"Like hell I do. It was a mistake, and one that I kind of regret. But if I didn't do it,my beautiful Mariah wouldn't have been born."

At the sound of her name, she looked up at me with big beautiful green eyes. Just like her father's. (Just to clarify, Mariah is Jackson's daughter and Miska is Alex's daughter. Whew.)

"So are you telling me that you wouldn't change your actions for anything in the world?" Mark pressed,scooting forward. I pursed my lips together then replied, "Absolutely not,never in a million years would I trade in my actions for something else."

"So, other than that, how have you been, Annie?" I grinded my molars together then snapped, "Don't call me that! No one can call me that... Not anymore. Especially not after what happened between us."

And what exactly would that be, Aviana?!" He spat my name like it was a bad taste that he couldn't wait to get out of his mouth.

"Everything! The lies, the cheating, the deceiving..." I trailed off and set my girls back in their cribs then finished my sentence quietly,"The drugs." He moaned, as if he were in pain, at the sound of the venom in my voice then cried out,"I'm sorry! How was I supposed to know that you were going to follow in my footsteps towards drugs?!" I raised my eyebrows, judging his expression which appeared to be a shocked look, so I took the best one I found filed away in my,"I will slaughter you along with the hogs, human or not." filing cabinet then glared at him.

"You're kidding me right? I followed you on everything! I always backed your opinions and views, I always agreed what you said,I always did what you told me to do. That's why I ended up in the freaking drugs,Mark! I wanted you to want me still! I could see that you still wanted Addison, even after she married your best friend. And of course, I was an idiot. When you asked me out on our first date,I thought to myself,My God, he's finally over the perfect little Addison."

I paused to scoff and wipe away a few stray tears before I spat,"But guess what? I was wrong, once a -freaking - gain, like normal. You know why? Because Addison Forbes Montgomery Shepherd is the woman that every man wishes they could have and that every woman wishes they could be. She's Queen Bee and I'm just a princess. You ruined my life, Mark. And I just let you do it."

Silence greeted my speech and I put the girls back in their cribs before I felt him pull me into a hug from behind, causing me to stiffen.

"I'm sorry. I am so sorry, Aviana. I would change it in a heartbeat. I didn't mean to ruin you." he whispered against my shoulder blade.

"Mistakes happen,Mark. And unfortunately for you, you were mine." I declared slipping out of his hold. He pressed his lips into a thin line and tried to block his true emotions from me but his eyes said it all. He regretted what he made me into.

"Would it be wrong of me to ask if I could maybe redeem myself as your friend?" Mark questioned, smiling. I gave a small smile, knowing that he could never remain serious then quickly hid it before he could see, and stated,"Maybe. I don't know. Take it slow, Mark. I just punched you in the face. I think you made a little process by just letting me do that."

"I don't think you gave me much of a choice to let you punch me." he joked. I nodded in agreement then said,"I'll see you around, Sloan. I have an attending waiting to torture me."

"Kinky."he added quickly with a grin and a laugh,"Just messing with ya. I've got a facial reconstruction to attend to."

I rolled my eyes and exited the room, scurrying to find out where Burke wanted me. I eventually found him and that's exactly when my week of hell started.

----------One week later---------

"Parker!!!!" My head shot up from the keyboard with terror in my eyes as I spotted Burke stalking towards me with a murderous gleam in his dark eyes.

"I-I have the lab results,I swear! They're down at the lab, I was just about to go grab them!" I quickly provided before I hurried away down to the lab for both the blood results and chest scans.

For all this week,I've had maybe an hour of sleep. Yeah, that's how much Burke has been working me. Take it easy on me because I'm his favorite intern my ass. When he was sleeping, I was a slave to the nurses.

Finally, I got back to Burke who was leaning over the desk that I was previously asleep on then handed him the results.

"Congrats,Parker. You lived. Go get some sleep,kid." he stated, sending me off to an on call room. I flopped down on the bed and started to close my eyes when I felt my phone begin to vibrate. I reached into my scrub pants and pulled it out, frowning at the caller ID. Great, this again. Well,I have to make a decision and soon. Might as well give her an answer now.

I pressed the answer button and held the phone up to my ear then stated,"I'll take it."
