CLARKE PROV
I can feel my mouth hanging open as soon as Lexa said what she did. I know there are different kinds of things people use to have sex and I know everyone has a different appetite… I mean come on I grew up on a ship with books I wasn't that completely sheltered. I know things I've just never came face to face with it. It's a completely different scenario when you get lost in a book.
My curiosity got the best of me and I heard myself say "Is this something you have hidden away in your closet?"
"Of course not, I may be Heda and I'm sure a lot of people would like to think that I use these kinds of crazy stuff but no… it's not my style." She responded smiling slightly.
I felt myself breathe again as she finished her sentence. She really isn't that scary after all; not nearly as scary as I thought she'd be when I first met her… it seems like a lifetime since then and it's only been days.
"Clarke, would you like to move on?" she asks.
"Yeah, sure sounds good to me." I respond.
"There's something I want to show you, I think you might like it and it also might help when you go back to Arkadia so your people don't see us as monsters either." She says.
"Okay, I'm ready to see it!"
My heart started to hurt when she was talking about me leaving but the whole point of coming to Polis was to talk to her about our groups living peacefully without war but according to the grounders 'blood must have blood.' I'm honestly surprised that anyone hasn't come looking for me.
We made our way through the tents and when we finally got to the end I caught my breath. I could count at least 10 kids running around the muddy ground smiling.
"I know you think that we're all crazy and want to fight all the time but we do let the children be children. They're safe and don't have a care in the world and when they become of age they decide themselves if they want to fight or not." She says to me while I'm still staring.
I turn my head to face her and say "They don't get punished if they choose not to fight?"
"No. Why would you think they'd get punished?"
"I don't know honestly. I just feel like you have so many warriors that something would have to happen to make them want to fight." I say.
"Something does happen; loyalty to protect those who can't protect themselves." She responds.
I guess deep down I knew they all weren't bad people, or they would've killed us by now.
"I…"
"Heda!" I am instantly cut off by someone yelling for the beautiful brunette beside me.
Lexa and I both turn around to see where the shout came from and see the Grounder named Indra walking towards us and it looks like she has something or someone in tow.
"What is it Indra?" Lexa says formally in the voice of Heda.
"I found these three lurking around outside of Polis and I figure they were up to know good. Skycrew is always up to no good.
I find myself trying to look around Indra to see who she has captured but it's no use because she has black looking sacks over their heads.
"Well, let me see them." Lexa commands.
As soon as Lexa finished her sentence Indra pulled the two captives side by side and walked behind them to reveal their faces.
"Bellamy? Octavia? What are you doing here! They could've killed you!" I yell.
"Clarke we were just trying to" Bellamy starts saying but it shut up by a smack to the back of his head by Indra.
"Do not speak unless Heda has spoken to you and requested a response." Indra says.
"These two are from Skycrew correct?" Lexa says raising an eyebrow at me.
"Yes. They're my friends." I respond.
"Speak boy." Lexa says in her Heda voice.
"We were just trying to make sure Clarke was okay. She made her way up her in the middle of the night so she could talk to you today." Bellamy says.
"Yeah, it sure looks like they did some talking, with their damn clothes off." Octavia says eyeing my neck.
