BIG SPOILERS FOR 3X07! Hi guys, I wrote this to fix the end of the episode because IT JUST DIDN'T HAPPEN OKAY I REFUSE TO BELIEVE THAT D: I've been crying for two hours and after I calmed down a bit (and rewatched all Clexa scenes from 3x07 at least ten times), I wrote this. I didn't even proofread it that much so I'm sorry for any grammar mistakes or awkward word placement. Anyway, my mourning continues so excuse me, I need to go cry some more... I hope this will make you feel a bit better :')

(I used some words in Trigedasleng and translated them at the end of the fanfic.)

3X07 THIRTEEN - CODA

.

"Can we talk about something else?" Lexa asks as she turns around. She's so beautiful like that. With her long brown hair on the pillow, green eyes and lips. I wonder why didn't we do this sooner, why did we wait until the very last moment. Until I had to leave.

"We don't have to talk at all." I smirk as I look down at her, into her eyes. This finally happened and I don't want it to end now.

As soon as I say that, she smiles and glances down to my lips. Then she leans closer to me and we kiss again. It still feel like it's the first time and I don't want it to ever end. I kiss her back and smile into the kiss, closing my eyes. This feels like a dream.

An hour later, I open the door to my room and sigh happily. The smile on my lips disappears the moment I walk farther into the room though and my eyes widen. There's Murphy, with a red piece of cloth in his mouth. He looks unconscious... or dead.

"Murphy?" I say and immediately rush to him to free him. Is he even alive?

"He's alive." I hear someone say behind me. It's Titus.

"What did you do to my friend?" I ask him. I never thought Titus would be able to go this far, even though he didn't agree with my and Lexa's opinion about blood must not have blood.

"Your friend was caught stealing from people on their way to the Polis market." He explains and Murphy stirs.

"Hey, you're okay." I tell him and quickly start removing the gag. His face is dirty and there's blood on his clothes. He's been probably tortured, possibly even by Titus himself. Oh God. Before I manage to remove the gag, Titus speaks up.

"Please don't do that." He says and... and he has a gun in his hand. Where the hell did he get a gun? Grounders feared Skaikru weapons, then why did he have it? I raise my hands and stand up, slowly getting away from Murphy. I never thought Titus would want to hurt me. Lexa would be furious if she found out, especially after what we did an hour ago.

"Titus, what is this about?" I ask him.

"I'm sorry it had to come to this, Clarke. Truly, I am." He says as he steps closer to me and Murphy.

"I'm leaving right now. Octavia's waiting for me." I try to explain, but something tells me Titus doesn't care anyway. "Just let me take Murphy and we'll go."

"Wish I could." Titus says as he points the gun at me. "Lexa will never execute her duty while you live."

"Hey, Titus, think!" I try one last time. "She's gonna know it was you."

"She'll think it was him!" Titus points at Murphy. His voice is shaky. I know he doesn't want to do this, but he thinks he's doing the right thing. "Skaikru weapon in the hands of a Skaikru thief. She might even be angry enough to declare war!" He shouts and fires the gun. I manage to bend down and he misses, but in that moment the door opens and Lexa enters the room. Titus immediately lets go of the gun and lets it drop down to the floor. It's too late though, Lexa saw him. "Heda..."

"Gona!" Lexa yells and after a while the door opens again. Three warriors get inside. "Take him." She tells them and nods towards Titus.

"Forgive me Heda, I-"

"Daun ste pleni!" Lexa shouts at him and he bows his head. That is what I call respect.

Just before the guards take Titus outside, Lexa stops them and looks at him. "You will never again attempt to harm Clarke. Swear it."

"I swear it." Titus says and after Lexa nods at the guards, they finally take him away. As soon as the door closes, she comes to me and puts her hands on my face.

"Are you alright?" She asks.

"Yes." I smile at her and she hugs me. I hug her back. "I'm glad you came here before he managed to hurt any of us." I smile and close my eyes. I'm so much more comfortable around her since we... did we start dating? Are we together now?

"I'm glad, too." She smiles and pulls away, still holding on to me.

"Umhmhmh-umhm!" Murphy mumbles and only then I remember he's still in the room. Lexa turns to look at him and frowns.

"It's alright, he's a... a friend." I say and go to him to finally remove the gag. Lexa picks up the gun and lays it on the table. Murphy takes a deep breath and starts coughing and then he stands up and wipes his mouth and stops coughing.

"Thanks." He mumbles.

"You're welcome." I smile, but then my smile vanishes. "How come you were stealing from the people coming to Polis?" I ask him and he smirks.

"Had nothing to do and nothing to eat." He explains.

"You will answer for your crimes." Lexa says from behind me and I turn around. "Blood must not have blood doesn't mean we ignore all Skaikru crimes."

"I agree." I say after a while, but Murphy rolls his eyes.

"Come on, I've just been tortured and hit in the head by that guy!"

"You and Titus will both answer for your crimes." Lexa says and calls the guards. After they enter the room, she commands: "Take him to the healer and then to the prison. But not together with Titus." The guards nod and take Murphy away.

Once the door closed the second time, Lexa looks at me and I look at her. Our eyes lock and I step closer. "When do you leave?" Lexa repeats her question and only then I realize it's too late for me to go. Octavia has left at least ten minutes ago and there's no way I can catch up to her when I'm here, in the highest room of the tower of Polis.

"I'm not." I smile. "I'm too late for the meeting with Octavia. She's already left."

"Does this mean..."

"Yes." I smile and come closer to her. "I'm staying." I say and lean in to kiss her again. She kisses me back and smiles into the kiss. Her arms wrap around me and I put my hands around her neck, pulling her closer as we fall into my bed. There's no reason for us not to repeat what we did an hour ago now, is there?

Gona! - Warrior! (I couldn't find any translation for "guards" so I used this.)
Daun ste pleni! - That is enough!
