IT WAS NEW YEAR'S EVE AND MAEVE SLOAN FOUND HERSELF AT HER father'sapartment. she hasn't forgotten how mark treated her on christmas day, which is why she was currently picking her bag in her room, the same room sloan jacked form her. in a few minutes, mark is supposed to drop off maeve at myleen's house
"it's new year's eve" lexie whispered to mark as they were a few steps from the couch that sloan was laying on, which also happened to be maeve's bed
"i know" mark said in a lowered voice
"she shows no signs of leaving— no suitcase packed, nothing. talk to her right now, or no more sex for you" she says before walking over to help maeve pack her backpack
mark slowly walked up to sloan, as he took a seat on the coffee table next to the couch "so... what you reading?" he asks
sloan gave him a small smile before sitting up from the couch to be eye to eye with him "i can tell you don't really like me, and, um maeve definitely doesn't either, your girlfriend's like, totally freaked out by me, 'cause i'm kinda, like, hotter than her. but i'm pregnant. yeah. i'm having a baby, and um, that's why i dropped out of school and that's why my mom kicked me out. look...i know you don't owe me anything... but i can tell you guys are about to kick me out and i...i... i don't have anywhere else to go" sloan says as her voice begins to shake and tears well up in her eyes
"shh. shh" mark whispers as he goes to take a seat next to her, wrapping his hands around her as she begins to cry "it's okay. you're gonna be okay" he said as he stroked her hair
meanwhile, mark was comforting sloan, lexie was furrowing her brows as she saw just how much clothes maeve was packing "hey maeve, you're just spending two days with your mom. why are you packing... your whole wardrobe?"
maeve grabbed her shirts that were on the bed and started stuffing them into her backpack "i clearly told mark that if sloan wasn't leaving anytime soon, that i would go live with my mom" she shrugs
