#lexie grey x amelia shephard

[oneshotnewbie]

Can you do a headcanon about Lexie and Amelia being the annoying little sister's to Derek an Amelia and both of them get compared to their older siblings by everyone?

It wasn't always easy to be a Grey or a Shepard, especially when you were the younger born under that name.

For Lexie, being a Grey meant being compared to her older sister at a young age and being compelled to follow in the footsteps of her famous mother; Ellis Grey. She often didn't like the fact that she was not seen by everyone as a person of herself but always only carried under her last name.

That also meant pressure for the youngest. Nocturnal study phases, perfect grades, no time for friends. She often felt left out and alone, but she didn't know it any other way; she was always told that her career is more important than anything else in the world.

Amelia was no better. She also had a huge name that she had to bear with all the burdens that came with it. And she broke because of them. The feeling of being overwhelmed and fearful of failure were feelings that were accompanied by shame. There was no room for that in this family full of doctors.

She struggled through breakdowns, deaths, loss, drug use and pulled herself together at school to keep the name Shepard clean. And so she got one of the best neurosurgeons in the state.

Lexie and Amelia met in the early years of medical school when they walked into each other and since then, they have been inseparable. Because they both were the youngest and had two of the greatest doctors in the family, they quickly came to a common denominator.

Once they became medical students at Seattle Grace, where again they were only known as the younger siblings of the best surgeons, they gave Meredith and Derek hell on earth.

They were annoying in different ways. They crashed romantic dates, destroyed intimate moments and the quiet idyll of the OR was devastated by their problems and thoughts. Suddenly, they were in the center of the hospital, everyone talking about the younger generation of Shepards and Greys and put their siblings in the shadows.

Derek and Meredith also had to listen to the little quarrels between the best friends and mediate between them. They hated it, but they were happy and proud that they gave each other the support to keep each other away from problems.

But it was also the other way around; if the older ones had an argument, both tried with positive impressions and gentle efforts to bring them back together.

They went up the hierarchy and became the favorites of Bailey and Webber, you would think that Derek and Meredith were jealous of them. They are always choosing Lexie and/or Amelia to assist in an operation.

Now they were the Seattle Grace superstars.
