So tonight's episode was a bit on the dark side and I decided to write something lighter. Enjoy
There were many sacrifices but the battle was finally won. Commander Lexa felt proud. She knew that this victory would make sure that her name was remembered for an eternity, that songs would be composed to praise her that legends would be handed down the generations but she never cared about those things. For her it was never about glory and power. It was always about protecting her people, making their lives better. And seeing hundreds of them being freed from their cages brought her a joy like no other
And speaking of joy her eyes found Clarke. To say that the girl has severely affected her would be an understatement. She had never met someone like Clarke. This combination of softness and strength of empathy and ruthlessness was unlike anything she had ever seen and Lexa was utterly fascinated. After Costia's death she never thought she would have feelings like this again. Desire of course and while she desired Clarke very strongly and with an almost primal urge she also felt something more….a kinship, an attraction that went far beyond the physical. For the first time in far too long she wanted something for herself
Of course she knew this was not possible now. Clarke was not ready and there was still to much work to do on solidifying the alliance so Lexa stood back in the shadows and simply watched over Clarke who…was inhaling the vapors from the Cup of Heavens. Lexa winced silently as Clarke inhaled deeply. The Cup contained a combination of very strong herbs. Just a small amount was enough to affect even a grown man while a girl the size of Clarke….Indra had obviously decided to omit the proper way to conduct this ritual.
This rooted Lexa on the spot. She was going to make sure that nobody decided to take advantage of Clarke in the state she was about to find herself very soon. She couldn't outright go and join the party of course. She was the Commander. It was one thing to share a drink with her generals or to give a speech but mingling with everybody and celebrating was crossing a line. As much as she wished it she had to keep her distance least her authority be undermined
Soon Lexa began to saw the first signs as Clarke began to laugh more and more and stumble in her movements. Lexa hissed silently as he saw Bellamy supporting her and leading her to her tent. She gripped her handle of her sword till she felt like her hand was going to break when she saw both of them entering the tent. She cared little if Bellamy was hero or not. If he tried to take advantage of Clarke she would gut him like a fish. As soon she made her first step towards the tent she stopped when he saw Bellamy getting out of there. Good. There would be no reason for murder today. She didn't want to spoil the celebration
Just she was about to head back to her own tent she suddenly that there was something happening on the south side of Clarke's tent. She tensed yet again wondering if an animal had snuck inside the tent when she suddenly saw...Clarke's butt…..soon joined from the rest of her as she crawled backwards from the side of her tent. Getting on her feet woozily Lexa heard the wonderful if rather worrying sound of Clarke laughing and then she started running off into the forest
Lexa couldn't believe this was actually happening and she discreetly snaked out of the camp and followed Clarke least she be killed by the dangers of the night. It took her almost ten minutes until she finally caught up with Clarke who was currently twirling around in a field of flowers
"Lexa" shouted Clarke and then ran over and grabbed her hands standing a bit too close to her personal space for comfort" I am so happy to se you! You weren't at the party! I missed you so much"
"As I told you Clarke" said Lexa who coughed to try and get over how nervous she was to feel Clarke so close to her. She could practically feel her warmth" as leaders it's unbecoming to behave like this. It shows weakness and I…."
"You are like Mrs. Pickles!" slurred Clarke with a big goofy smile on her face
"…..what?" asked a confused lexa
"She was my bunny on the Ark…technically she my mothers lab bunny but I took care of her!"
"I am NOT a bunny Clarke" huffed Lexa halfway between outrage and confusion. And she had to put great effort into making sure she avoided looking directly into Clarke's eyes or smile because the moonlight made Clarke seem even more beautiful then usual
"Yes you are! Mrs Pickles was also serious and proud and beautiful and you know what?" said Clarke as her voice lowered to a whisper and she came even closer to Lexa" She also loved hugs!"
Lexa stood still as she suddenly found herself enveloped in a hug by Clarke. A hug that didn't seem to end as Clarked seemed to feel comfortable being draped all around Lexa's body
" Hmm this is nice. The stars are so nice and the flowers and the MOON. And you are so beautiful…and warm". Hmm sighed Clarke contently as she kept holding onto Lexa
Lexa nearly winced when Clarke squirmed and she could feel her breasts against her on own. This was not going well. She knew she should push Clarke aside and give her a stern lecture on how to be a leader but she felt paralyzed. She discreetly moved her head around to make sure that nobody was around to witness this humiliating moment. Thankfully they went past the border guards a while ago and they were alone
"I want to dance "said Clark who's face was suddenly very close to Lexa's own
" Clarke I….." Lexa was about to object and finally put a stop to this madness but Clarke started to move and their bodies were still so close that Lexa had only three choices. Go along with Clarke's version of a dance, fall on her ass or push Clarke away. And so she found herself dancing with Clarke in the woods
This was just the beginning of Lexa's first ever surrender. She just couldn't refuse Clarke anything when she begged her with those eyes and that smile. And Clarke was long from finished with her requests. They danced , they shared food (what Clarke refered to as chocolate and which was quite enjoyable Lexa had to admit) and now the last hour was spent with Clarke laying next to Lexa's while they exchanged stories until they finally asleep
Suddenly Clarke's eyes open carefully and after making sure that Lexa was asleep Clarke smiled a wicked smile. All traces of intoxication seemed to magically disappear. She was always a good actress. Snuggling close to Lexa she fell asleep happy in the knowledge that she managed to get Lexa to celebrate in her own special way
