Hey! This is a companion piece to Good Morning Sunshine and You are my Sunshine but can be read alone :)

Enjoy!


Lexa sighed, checking her phone again, still no response from Clarke. Lexa drummed her fingers on the keyboard in front of her, weighing her options. She hadn't heard from Clarke all day and could feel the worry creeping in. She knew Clarke would roll her eyes and make some sort of sarcastic comment about being pregnant not dying, but she couldn't help herself. Giving in she grabbed her phone again and dialed a familiar number.

"Heey Detective heart eyes, what can I do ya for?" Octavia asked cheerfully.

"Are you busy at the moment?" Lexa queered.

"Nope I'm free as a bird, is everything okay?"

"Would you be able to check on Clarke for me? She isn't answering any of my messages or calls and I am going to be stuck here until Later and I.."

"And you're worried" Octavia finished.

"Yeah" Lexa admitted. "She is getting so close and I hate leaving her for so long."

"You know she is gonna be pissed if she finds out you sent me to check on her" Octavia chuckled.

"I know, I know, a pissed Clarke I can deal with but anything else.." Lexa sighed trailing off.

"Clarke's a big girl Lexa I am sure she is okay but I will head on over and check anyways"

"Thanks Octavia" Lexa let out a breath of relief.

"Sure thing Lexa"

"Oh and Octavia can you please make sure she actually eats something and make sure she resting and not doing anything strenuous" Lexa added.

"It's okay Detective I've got this" Octavia reassured her.

"Sorry, Thanks Octavia you are a good friend to Clarke"

"I like to think we are friends to Lex" Octavia teased lightheartedly.

"Goodbye Octavia" Lexa shook her head hanging up.

Octavia arrived outside of Clarke and Lexa's apartment, she knocked firmly on the door and then waited impatiently. After a minute with no response Octavia knocked more firmly and called out-

"Clarke wakey wakey" She then listened carefully, expecting to here some sort of movement, but there was no noise.

"Clarke if you don't answer right now imma knock this door down!" She all but shouted. Her brow furrowing in concern. Still no response.

Octavia felt the fear for her closest friend increase. Maybe Lexa was right to be worried. Octavia hurriedly searched her bag and fished out a credit card. After a moment she managed to jimmy the lock open. She let the door swing open and apprehensively stepped inside the silent apartment.

"Clarke it's Octavia" her voice echoed, but there was no answer. Octavia moved further through the apartment. There was no sign of Clarke and at nine months pregnant Clarke was hard to miss. With an increasing feeling of dread Octavia hurried through the rest of the apartment looking for her friend. Octavia peered in to Lexa and Clarke's bedroom hoping to find Clarke peacefully sleeping, but the room was empty as was the bathroom and the nursery.

"Where are you Princess?" Octavia asked the empty apartment, running a hand through her long hair before pulling out her phone.

–-

Lexa eagerly grabbed her phone when it rang only a short time later. Her blood ran cold when she saw Octavia's name on the screen.

"What's wrong?" She asked without any greeting.

"She isn't here" Octavia answered gesturing to the empty apartment.

"What do yo mean?!" Lexa snapped, standing from her chair abruptly, receiving a few strange glances from her co-workers.

"The apartments empty, she isn't here, where would she go?" Octavia questioned.

"I don't know" Lexa conceited. Clarke was supposed to be on strict bed rest so she shouldn't be going anywhere. "Are her things still there?" Lexa questioned. She was leaning on her desk, fist clenched. Octavia checked the space by the door where Clarke and Lexa normally hung their keys and coats.

"Her handbags gone but her car keys are still here"

"What?!" Lexa screeched, her normal calm demeanor faltering. "She can barley walk from the bed to the bathroom without loosing her breath!"

"What should I do?" Octavia asked the panic in Lexa's voice causing her to worry even more.

"You call Raven and Bellamy, see if they have heard from her, I'll call Abby" Lexa's mind worked quickly.

"Okay" Octavia responded. Lexa ended the call immediately and then dialed Abby's number.

"Hello Lexa" Abby greeted after a few rings.

"Have you heard from Clarke?" Lexa asked hurriedly, already gathering her things and preparing to leave the station.

"No not since yesterday, is everything alright Lexa?"

"Shit" Lexa cursed.

"Whats wrong?" Abby questioned, voice full of concern.

"She hasn't been answering my calls or messages all day, I sent Octavia to check on her but she wasn't there" Lexa's level of concern increasing the more she thought about her missing girlfriend. Lexa gulped as images of Clarke laying unconscious somewhere or in danger flashed through her mind.

"Calm down Lexa, I am sure she is fine, she's a smart girl. I will call around and see if anyone has heard from her"

"Okay" Lexa hung up and strode towards the exit of the station. Looking down to check her phone she collided with someone.

"Watch it" she snapped, annoyed. She looked up, into the harsh face of her chief, Indra.

"Oh sorry Chief"

"Where are you going in such a hurry Detective?"

"Clarke's gone missing, I have to find her" Lexa spoke, trying to not let her voice waver under the steely gaze of her chief. Indra nodded sharply her fierce eyes softening a little.

"Let me know if there is anything you need" Indra offered.

"Thank you Indra" Lexa nodded acknowledging Indra's offer before continuing to make her way out of the building.

She had almost reached her car when her phone buzzed in her hand. Her heart skipped a beat in hope, only to be disappointed when she saw Octavia's response.

Octavia: Raven & B haven't seen her. R is going to check at Grounders & B is checking with Monty & Jasper.

Lexa quickly sent back 'ok' before getting in to her car. She ran her hand through her messy hair, taking a deep breath, trying to calm herself. She hit speed dial again, closing her eyes and silently paying that Clarke would answer.

"Hi!, You have reached Clarke I'm not available, please leave a message and I'll get back to you soon!"

"Clarke where are you? I am starting to get worried, please call me back, I need to know you're okay" Lexa pleaded with Clarke's voicemail.


Lexa walked in to the apartment to see Octavia on the phone.

"Okay just let me know if you see her, thanks" She hung up.

"That was Kane, no word" Octavia sighed shaking her head.

"Where the hell is she!" Lexa slammed her a hand down on the kitchen bench in frustration.

"When was the last time you heard from her?" Octavia asked.

"Not since I left this morning, 8 hours ago" Lexa answered, checking the time on her watch. Without another word she stormed off towards the nursery. Everything was still in it's place. The bag Clarke and her had packed to take to the hospital sat untouched. Next she checked their room, everything to appeared to be in order and she couldn't see a note. Her phone sounded again, it was Abby.

'Hello" Lexa answered, her greeting harsh.

"I haven't had any luck, have you found her yet?" Abby asked, clearly worried for her daughter and unborn grandchild.

"No, no one has heard from her, I don't know what to do" Lexa admitted, tears beginning to well in her eyes. The situation all to familiar. Memories of finding Costia's lifeless body filled her mind. "I can't do it again Abby, I cant do it" Lexa chocked back more tears as the lifeless face in her mind became Clarke's.

"Yes you do Lexa, Clarke isn't Costia, you're a Detective this is what you do, so you need to pull yourself together and find my daughter!" Abby strongly urged.

"Right, you're right" Lexa took a deep breath, standing straighter running and hand across her face removing any sign of tears. "Ok Abby, I want you to start calling all the hospitals in the area and see if she is there."

"Okay will do" Abby answered, hanging up. With new determination Lexa strode back to the living room, where Octavia was waiting.

"Call Raven, have her and Monty trace Clarke's cell, I'd have work do it but they will probably be faster" Lexa spoke.

"Okay" Octavia nodded "Is there anything else I should do?"

"Stay here in case she comes home" Lexa grabbed a larger coat from the rack by the door and shrugged it on, pulling her hair free from under the collar and double checking that her side arm was still firmly in place on her hip. She then opened a cupboard to reveal a safe, she quickly typed in the pin and pulled a decent sized knife out.

"What are you doing?" Octavia's eyes widened at the sight of the knife.

"I am going to go pay Finn a visit" Lexa answered coldly as she fastened the knife to her thigh where it would be covered by her coat.

"You.. you don't think he has something to do with this?" Octavia gaped.

"For his sake, I hope not" Lexa spoke through clenched teeth.
