Chapter Nine-Tell Me

Clarke and Lexa's foreheads gently rested against each other's as their lips moved closer before their lips could connect Lexa moved her head back slightly keeping their foreheads connected but stopping their lips from meeting letting out a sharp breath she softly said;

"Clarke…" Closing her eyes for a second internally kicking herself for stopping herself from getting what she wanted since the day Clarke asked her to leave the house "This isn't a good idea" At the words Clarke quickly went to remove herself from Lexa's lap only to be held in her place by Lexa's quick hands "Clarke…don't run please" Clarke didn't fight Lexa's grip but instead looked down at her own lap not looking Lexa in the eyes "It's not that I don't wanna kiss you…because believe me I really do….but it's not fair on either of us, you know I love you and in an you made me crazy with how amazing you are kind of way, not a friendship way….I wanna move back home and I want us to be together again but I'm not sure you do…"

"I do want that…I just…."

"You just what Clarke?"

"My brain is so jumbled at the moment I can't seem to work out what I want" Clarke lifted her head up turning and looking at Lexa, bringing her left hand up to gently caress Lexa's cheek as she continued speaking "I miss you so much, and not because I'm not used to being alone but...because I still love you, and I don't think I can change that…I don't think I want to….but more than anything I'm dealing with the possibility that I made a mistake and we lost a year as a family because I didn't trust you" Clarke explained looking into Lexa's eyes and seeing that same green colouring that she fell in love with "I was so sure that what I was told was true and that you would lie to hide the truth that I didn't think about the possibility that Nia or Roan or however could be trying to get in-between us…I didn't even think that was a possibility at the time to be honest, so much so I didn't even give you a chance to defend yourself properly, I shut myself down and even worse I shut you out of our lives…"

"Clarke…"

"Let me finish please…..I knew that I'd forgive you and I thought that it'd be because you'd convince me to forgive you without admitting anything to me…I just got so into my own mind and I'll let Roan get into my head as well…" Clarke let out as tears starting escaping from her eyes running down her cheeks, removing her hand from Lexa's cheek she gripped onto her other hand nervously clasping her hands together "I thought he was being a good friend and trying to make me feel better but now I realise that he was just trying to get into my head….and I let him"

"Clarke…. what do you mean you let him?"

"He was the one that suggested filing for divorce…. he convinced me that you'd try and kick me out of the house and take the kids from me…that you'd call me a bad mom and say I was unfit to look after them…. He was the one that suggested the monthly stays and the fortnightly days with the kids…I just let him get into my head..." Clarke again lowered her head avoiding looking at Lexa the shame and guilt she was feeling was overwhelming at this moment in time

"Hey…Clarke look at me…" When Clarke continued to look at her hands, Lexa reached up with her right hand gently lifting Clarke's chin up until the Blonde was looking her in the eyes "None of what you chose to do was wrong, you weren't played or tricked by anyone, you made the best decision you could to protect yourself and the kids….I don't hold it against you…so you shouldn't hold it against yourself…"

"You don't hate me?"

"I don't think I could ever hate you…even if you did something that warranted hate…which for the record I don't think you ever could" Lexa honestly replying smiling up at Clarke as the blonde's face filled with a small smile "So please stop seconding guessing yourself and letting that idiot get into your head ok?"

"Ok"

"Good…" Lexa smiled back releasing her hands from around Clarke's waist, Clarke smiled at her before quickly standing up and taking a few steps towards the island counter. Lexa noticed the tenseness and emotion in Clarke's body language as the blonde kept her back to her, standing up she stepped forward standing behind Clarke she slowly turned the blonde around so they were face to face, without a word she wrapped her arms around Clarke, who instantly wrapped her arms around Lexa's waist burying her head in Lexa's shoulder breathing in the smell of her ex, the woman who she missed more with every breath she took, the same woman she was still technically married to by law, the same woman she wanted so badly to come home. Lexa just kept her arms wrapped tightly around Clarke's torso, resting her cheek gently on the top of Clarke's head taking in the smell of Clarke's shampoo and conditioner, the same one she'd used for years upon years ever since they started dating.

The two women held onto each other tightly like there was no tomorrow, like if they let go of each other then the moment would end and they'd go back to hating each other. The minutes flew past them both, neither one releasing that time had continued moving on without them. Lexa finally pulled back bringing her hands to rest on Clarke's neck just near her jawline, gently caressing Clarke's jawline with her thumbs she leant forward placing a gentle kiss on Clarke's cheek, her lips lingering against Clarke's cheek for a few seconds more than they perhaps should have. As Lexa pulled back looking into Clarke's eyes she debated whether or not she was right to stop Clarke kissing her, but before she had a chance to say anything to Clarke and before Clarke had a chance to say anything to her, their attention was brought to the kitchen doorway when they both caught sight of Olivia standing there looking at them both, stepping back slightly to create space between her and Clarke, Lexa looked at her daughter smiling before she asked:

"Hey princess…what can we do for you?"

"Can you watch the film Mama?" Olivia sweetly asked nervously twirling from side to side on her feet as she held her right hand over her mouth with her forefinger resting on her lips

"Of course I can"

"And you too Mommy"

"Are you asking for some Woods family time?"

"Yes please"

"Ok then…" Looking to Clarke for confirmation, when Clarke nodded her head smiling brightly at her she turned back to Olivia, walking forward "Let's do it" She half shouted quickly moving forward and lifting Olivia into the air without stopping her walk, Olivia let out an excited squeal/giggle as Lexa caught her against her chest and carried her to the couch closely followed by a smiling and seemingly happy Clarke.

Lexa and Clarke sat with the twins' watching the rest of The Lady and The Tramp, Oscar was sat in the corner with Lexa after she had placed Olivia on the couch and sat herself down Oscar had crawled the small space between them and sat down on her lap stretching his legs out over Lexa's as she removed her trainers and stretched her legs out on the couch in front of her. Clarke laughed at the sight in front of her as she watched Lexa lift Oscar's duvet until it covered her and her son. As Clarke sat down Olivia quickly climbed onto her Mommy's lap adjusting herself once she was comfortable, resting her upper body against Clarke's chest adjusting herself so that she could see the film as it continued to play, Clarke did as Lexa did and brought Olivia's duvet over them covering them both allowing them to snuggle up more.

Once the film was finished Lexa stood up and placed Beauty and The Beast in the Blu-Ray player pressing play and siting back down with Oscar. As she sat down Clarke moved herself shuffling her position on the couch slightly, as Clarke finished moving Lexa sent her an amused look earning her a roll of the eyes from Clarke, neither of them noticing or caring that Clarke's movements had resulted in them being a little closer together. They both turned their attention to the film watching the movie, as the movie continued on and on Clarke and Lexa's hands moved naturally closer together, as the film was about half way through Olivia bounced on Clarke's lap making Clarke laugh slightly and move her hand to the left more. Her hand landed on Lexa's, she instantly removed it not looking at Lexa in case she thought she'd done it on purpose. Instead continuing to look forward keeping her attention on the film as they both ignored the slight tension between them as they sat on the couch with their kids. The film came towards the end with Beauty dancing to the films theme with the now human beast, as the two cartoon characters danced together on the screen Olivia and Oscar leant forward both giggling softly and clapping their hands together as they looked at the screen and the scene in front of them, as the films theme played in the background the twin's began singing along to it, both Lexa and Clarke sat watching and laughing at the twins…they twins remained engulfed in the film until the credits rolled and they both looked at Lexa and Clarke:

"Did you both enjoy that?" Lexa asked looking at the twins' already knowing that they wanted to watch another film "Was it a good film?" She asked, when neither of them answered her first question

"Yeah" The answered at the same time "Another?" The added looking sweetly at Clarke and Lexa

"Not right now…" Lexa answered looking at the clock noticing it was now 6pm and was nearing the twin's bedtime, she knew that Clarke would more than likely want to give the twins their dinner now before even thinking about letting them watch another film. Looking to Clarke she softly smiled asking "Do you they need a bath tonight?"

"No, I think we can let them off tonight…. but they do need to go get in their pyjamas..." When the twins faces filled with sadness and they went to protest she continued "Mama isn't going anywhere…you two go get changed into your pyjamas and I'll make some dinner, then we can all sit and watch another film and after that film Me and Mama will put you to bed ok?"

"Ok Mommy" The both responded smiling brightly at each other, jumping down off of the couch at the same time they both walked towards the stairs, Oscar disappeared up the stairs and out of sight his excited giggle fading away. Olivia on the other hand stopped at the bottom of the stairs turning around she looked at Lexa like she wanted to say something. Sensing what was wrong Lexa stood up and walked over to Olivia kneeling down in front of her she softly said;

"I won't go anywhere princess I promise" Olivia smiled at Lexa quickly hugging her Mama before she turned and ran up the stairs to join her brother. Standing up Lexa turned around looking at Clarke "Thanks for letting me stay so late…" She instantly noticed the nervous look on Clarke's face "Unless you want me to leave?"

"No it's not that it's…"

"It's what Clarke?"

"Would you mind staying the night?" Clarke noticed the unsure look on Lexa's face, standing up and walking over to Lexa she softly added "You can stay in the guest room or I can and you can sleep in our room…. It's just if Roan comes back…I'd umm…I'd feel safer with you here"

"As long as you're sure you want me to stay"

"I am…you'd be helping me out"

"Then I'll stay"

"Thanks…I still have some of your clothes upstairs so you'll have stuff to wear"

"Thanks Clarke….so anyway what's for dinner? …anything I can help with?"

"Sure" Clarke smiled before walking off in the direction of the kitchen to cook dinner for her Lexa and the twins' something she hadn't done for a long time. Clarke and Lexa went about making the dinner for themselves and the twins, Lexa did as she was told by Clarke smirking at the bossy nature that emerged everytime Clarke cooked, within Twenty-Five minutes they had finished making four bowls of pasta with Chicken in a Tomato puree sauce. Clarke placed the last of the bowls on the island counter before looking at Lexa and curiously saying "I wonder why the twins are taking so long?"

"I'm not sure…How about you get the drinks ready and I'll go check on them?"

"Sounds like a good plan"

"Awesome" Lexa smiled at Clarke softly as the blonde smiled back at her with just as much brightness as Lexa's smile. Turning and walking out of the kitchen Lexa walked towards and up the stairs continuing until she reached the twins bedroom, as she reached the door she laughed softly to herself when she heard the twins whispering to each other, walking into the room she kept her face stern and serious as she noticed Olivia and Oscar were still in their clothes kneeling up on Olivia's bed, as they noticed their Mama in the room they both looked in her direction their hands shooting behind their backs, she looked at Oscar's hands firmly behind his back clearly hiding something from her looking at him she firmly asked "What are you hiding?"

"Nothing Mama" Oscar quickly responded straightening his back and adjusting himself slightly on the bed

"Nice try Oz…but you remember it's bad to lie to Mama right?"

"But…"

"No buts Oscar…now show me what your hiding"

Oscar looked to his twin sister for help and silent advice, shaking his head at her signalling he didn't want to show their Mama what was hidden behind his back. "Show Mama Oz…. we're not meant to be bad." Olivia said to her brother her Mama's warning from earlier in the day ringing in her ears. Oscar though for a second his chin contorting as he moved it with every thought he had. As Lexa took a step forward he looked at her, slowly he moved his hands from behind him placing them between him and his Mama revealing a piece of paper folded over once to make a card of sorts. Looking at the piece of paper in Oscar's hands Lexa reached forward taking the card from her son she looked at it closely, Oscar and Olivia had apparently been upstairs drawing for the last twenty-five minutes, looking over the picture they had drawn Lexa took in the drawing of two children, one boy and one girl, along with a bigger/older woman in the background of the card was a house with a porch in the front of it, green trees scattered around behind it with some bushes in front of the people in the picture "Open it Mama" Olivia's voice encouraged as the twins looked up at her smiling toothy grins at her, smiling she opened the make shift card smiling as her eyes feel on the crayon written words on the card 'Mama, We lov u mazillions and balllions Olivia and Oscar' her eyes welled up as she read the messy crayon written words of her children, looking down at them she sniffed back tears before she spoke;

"Thank you both, I love it"

"Really Mama?" Oscar asked looking up his Mama with questioning and hopeful eyes

"Yes…..it is the best card I have ever been given" At Lexa's words both Olivia and Oscar's faces filled with happiness and joy as they excitedly bounced on the spot on Olivia's bed "Now come on, dinner is ready and Mommy is waiting for us…so pyjama time" The twins smiled at their Mama as she stepped forward hugging them quickly before gently lifting them and laying them down on the bed, leaving Olivia on her bed she lifted Oscar in the air carrying him over to his bed placing him down on the bed. As she looked at them both again she smiled when they both, at the same time, crawled up their beds to their pillows lifting their pillows up finding their pyjamas lifting them from underneath the pillows.

They both quickly got pressed while Lexa waited patiently for them, once they were both dressed they carefully jumped off of their respective beds walking and standing in front of their Mama looking up at her sweetly. Lexa now noticed that Olivia and Oscar were wearing the pyjamas she had brought them months ago, their pyjamas were matching in everything but colour, the pyjama trousers with covered in different kinds of dinosaurs all the way, the tops had a picture of an Oviraptor on the front of them both sleeves were solid colours no dinosaurs or writing on them. The only different between Olivia and Oscar's pyjamas were that Oscar's was dark blue and Olivia's was a light red. Lexa smiled at them both before leaning down her card still in her hand, smiling at them both she softly said;

"Thank you for my card"

"Your welcome" The twins answered at the same time smiling at their Mama

"Let's go eat before Mommy sends out a search party" Lexa opened her arms wide, the twins lunged forward hugging her tightly at the same time. Lexa wrapped her arms around them both holding onto them tightly she stood up lifting them into the air with her, keeping a firm hold on the twins as they giggled softly against her she carried them out of their bedroom and downstairs until they were in the living room, carefully kneeling down she placed them both on the floor she looked at them both softly saying "Go sit down and I'll get dinner" The twins excitedly giggled before turning around and running over to the couch jumping up onto the couch both of them sitting and waiting patiently. Lexa stood herself up walking into the kitchen and softly smiling at Clarke showing her the card "They got distracted making this…. but their changed and waiting patiently in the living room for their dinner now"

Clarke smiled as she looked at the card, the twins writing had improved so much and so had their drawing. Looking up at Lexa she softly said "Well let's get this food into them before they run off and get distracted" Lexa laughed in agreement picking up the two smaller bowls with spoons placed in them, she carried them into the living room giving one bowl to each of the twins before walking back to the kitchen and picking up their drinks carrying them into the living room placing them on the table before carefully moving the table so it was in front of the twins. She smiled as they thanked her politely as they began eating their food. Lexa was about to walk into the kitchen again when as she turned Clarke walked into the living room carrying a glass of orange juice and a bowl, stopping in front of Lexa she handed them over to the brunette smiling softly at her, before turning around and walking back to the kitchen to retrieve her food and drink. Lexa walked over to the twins and sat down next to Olivia who was closest to the front door, as she sat herself down Clarke re-entered the room walking over to the three Wood's family members she questioned where to sit in her mind, that was until Oscar's voice called out to her;

"Sit with me Mommy"

Clarke smiled happily walking over and complying with her son's request, sitting down next to him she smiled even more when he snuggled into her a little. Reaching forward she grabbed the remote control pressing the Netflix button she selected the kids section of the app carefully moving along until she found the film she was looking for(Annie-2016), pressing play she placed the remote down next to herself before beginning to eat her food, in the corner of her eye she noticed that Olivia and Oscar were both looking at Lexa waiting for her to start eating, she giggled softly in amusement when Lexa took her first bite of food and the twins automatically started eating their food at the same time. Ignoring the pure cuteness of her children she concentrated on eating her food and watching the film, soon enough her bowl was empty and she was completely full, laying herself back even more she smiled when she noticed Oscar had finished his food as well reaching down she took his bowl from his lap and placed it inside hers, in the corner of her eye she could see Lexa doing the same thing for Olivia. Clarke's attention was fully on the film when Oscar leant forward wrapping his arms carefully around Clarke's waist, at the same time Olivia leant into Lexa and did the same thing, both their hands tentatively holding on the clothing underneath them.

Not wanting to disturb the twins both Lexa and Clarke decided not to move from their places both instead opting to stay where they were. The film played on and nearly an hour later Clarke looked down at her son, her eyes landing on the sleeping image of Oscar, his head resting on her chest as his hands clung to the material of her t-shirt his breathing was level and steady. The image of her son filled her with love, he looked so innocent and carefree like nothing in the world could harm him. Looking to her right she noticed that Olivia was also asleep unlike Oscar she had at some point climbed onto Lexa's lap and was sitting on her Mama's lap her head resting on Lexa's chest as her hands gripped tightly onto the material that rested over Lexa's stomach. As Clarke's eyes moved from her daughter to her ex she instantly noticed that Lexa's attention was on their son laying against her chest, as the smile spread across Clarke's face Lexa's eyes travelled from their son to Clarke's face their eyes locked and they smile spread across both their faces, they continued to look at each other for minutes on end before Lexa finally spoke keeping her voice lowering than normal so she didn't wake up the twins;

"I'll get this one to bed then come down for Oscar"

"I can carry him up"

"No…it's ok let me carry him…let me give you a break" Lexa returned smiling softly at Clarke who smiled back and softly nodded her head in agreement. Giving Clarke a small nod in return Lexa carefully moved forward wrapping her arms protectively around her daughter before she stood up, as Lexa stood up Olivia softly moved in her arms moving herself in her sleep until her head was tucked in Lexa's shoulder her hands moving to hold a little higher on Lexa's shirt. Lexa stood still for a minute making sure that Olivia hadn't woken up, once she was sure her daughter was still asleep walked towards the stairs carefully climbing them and walking into the twin's bedroom she walked over to Olivia's bed remembering that Olivia's duvet was downstairs she laid her daughter down on the bed making sure she slowly removed her hands as to not wake Olivia up. Smiling at the image of her sleeping daughter Lexa shook herself from her thoughts turning and quickly walking down the stairs she walked over to the couch grabbing the duvet, looking over at Clarke she softly said "I'll just take this up and I'll be back for Oz" Clarke smiled and nodded her attention turning back to their son as she ran her fingers through his hair as she just looked at him. Once Lexa was back in the twin's bedroom she carefully placed the duvet over her daughter laughing softly to herself as Olivia unconsciously moved under the covers curling into them hugging them as if they were a person, Lexa watched Olivia for a few minutes before she turned around walking out of the room and down the stairs back to the couch where Clarke was still holding their sleeping son.

Moving over to Clarke she knelt one of her knees on the couch to steady herself as she leant forward carefully placing her hands underneath her son's arms, quickly lifting him from Clarke's chest and turning him in the air effortlessly until his chest was against hers. Out of the two twins Oscar had always been the lightest sleeper, so him staying asleep when being moved was always a problem however, much to Lexa and Clarke's surprise Oscar kept sleeping his body adjusting itself to hold onto his Mama his head doing just as Olivia's had and resting on his Mama's shoulder. Doing as she had done with Olivia, Lexa stood steal for a minute making sure that her son hadn't woken up. Once she was sure she carried Oscar up the stairs not stopping until she reached the twin's bedroom, once she reached the bedroom she walked into it walking up to Oscar's bed she placed him carefully and slowly onto the bed, taking more time than she had done with Olivia in case Oscar woke up. Once she had successfully placed Oscar in his bed she looked down at him watching him carefully, she was pulled out of her thoughts when she felt someone behind her turning around she saw Clarke entering the room with Oscar's duvet, smiling as her ex handed her the duvet she turned back carefully and slowed placing the duvet over her -thankfully- still sleeping son, just as Olivia did, once the duvet covered him Oscar unconsciously moved underneath the duvet curling up underneath it and hugging the material close as if it was a person.

After watching the twins sleeping for a few minutes Clarke and Lexa exited the bedroom closing the door behind them, without a second thought they both made their way downstairs and back to the living room, picking up the empty bowls and glasses that now rested on the living room table in front of the couch. They carried the bowls and glasses into the kitchen in complete silence, both walking up to the sink and placing the items inside it. Lexa stood next to Clarke looking at the blonde contemplating what she could say to her, she decided to just go with a simple ice breaker; "So you wash I'll dry?" Clarke looked at her nodded her head raising her eyebrows at the same time "What? …. you always wash and I always dry…"

"You're such a charmer"

"What can I say it's a gift…." She laughed as Clarke shook her head leaning forward and turning on the taps to run the water before leaning forward and picking the washing up liquid pouring some of the substance into the water until it began to bubble. "You know we could just use the dishwasher…" Clarke turned and looked at her turning her head to the side slightly raising her eyebrows and looking at her in an almost sultry way "What…. that's what the dishwasher is for…"

"You want to put on the dishwasher…which takes an hour plus change…for what 8 items, really Lexa?"

"What? …. it's a dishwasher, it's for washing dishes and other items like glasses and cutlery"

"We can put the cutlery in there but I'll hand wash and dry the others if you just don't wanna put in the work"

"Oh…. that sounds like a challenge" When Clarke just raised her eyebrows at her and turned her attention back to the sink, turning the water off and beginning to wash the used items, Lexa grabbed the kitchen tea towel straightening her back she looked at Clarke moving closer to the kitchen sink next to her ex "This is gonna be the best dish drying you've ever seen" Clarke laughed at the comment as she began washing the dishing her, Lexa and the twins and used.

Clarke and Lexa laughed and talked away as they washed and dried the dishes it was almost like it used to be with them except for that niggling thought in the back of Clarke's mind that everything she had believed about Lexa could be wrong, that everything they had been through all the heartbreak and turmoil could have been for nothing. The more she thought about it the more she didn't care about her own feelings but Oscar and Olivia's, they had been through so much over the months since Lexa had left and both of them had started to misbehave, throwing tantrums, screaming the house down and on a very rare occasion they would raise their arms angrily in the air as if they were going to hit their her, they never would but the anger was clear in their faces as they would look up at her. Everytime they gave her that look it would break her heart a little more, she knew that no four-year old should have that much emotion and anger clear in their face but yet both of her four-year olds did.

But that look never once appeared on their face when they were around Lexa, when they were around their Mama the only emotions they experienced were happiness and sadness, pure happiness at having their Mama near them in any form and pure sadness when they had to say goodbye to her. The more she thought about it the more the blamed herself for not trusting Lexa, and the more she needed to speak to Octavia and find out what she had heard word for word. Shaking her thoughts out of her head she looked at Lexa who was now looking at her with an intrigued look on her face, handing Lexa the last plate she softly asked;

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Lexa contemplated her answer for a second, she had two options one was ask Clarke what she really wanted to ask her and the second was to ask her ex something else completely and leave her to her own thoughts knowing Clarke was internally blaming herself for something "Was that the best drying you've ever seen or what?" She asked opting for option two, hoping that she could distract the blonde from her thoughts long enough for Clarke to just relax.

"It wasn't bad"

"Wasn't bad? …it was amazing"

"If you say so"

"Your so mean Clarke" Lexa joked seeing the smile on Clarke's face, the smile that matched the small giggle that the Blonde let out "So what do you wanna do now? …. please tell me you don't go to bed at half seven"

"I don't…I usually clean up then relax and watch TV until I am beaconed to my bed by pure exhaustion"

"Sounds like fun…. But how about we watch a film together?"

"Depends on whether I get to pick the film or not?"

"You can pick the film, as long as it's not depressing"

"Deal"

Lexa smiled at the happiness in Clarke's face watching as the blonde placed the kitchen tea towel on the counter next to the sink. She watched as Clarke went over to the fridge opening it and pulling out two bottles of diet coke handing one to Lexa before turning back into the fridge reaching inside it before pulling out two chocolate sundaes she closed the fridge door before walking over to the cutlery draw opening it and removing two small spoons she smirked handing one sundae to Lexa before picking up her bottle of diet coke and turning walking into the kitchen. Lexa simply laughed before following the Blonde into the living room, walking over she sat down beside Clarke internally happy that Clarke seemed to have forgotten all about her blaming herself for anything. After about ten minutes of looking through films on Netflix Clarke finally chose a film, and much to Lexa dismay Clarke had opted for watching Titanic, Lexa had gone to protest Clarke's decision but Clarke as usual gave her the puppy dog eyes and she gave in agreeing to watching the film.

They both watched the film in silence eating their sundaes and drinking their diet cokes without exchanging any words, not that Lexa didn't try to speak but everytime she did try to say a word Clarke would send her a firm look and shh her the whole time not taking her eyes off of the film on the TV screen. The film played out and at the infamous sex in the car scene Lexa couldn't help but look only at Clarke and how the blonde reacted to the scene, and as always the Blonde had a smile on her face smirking as she watched the scene play out. As the film continued to play out Lexa found herself paying more attention to the Blonde than she was to the film itself, she couldn't help it she wanted to make sure that Clarke didn't get upset or emotional and the only way she could be sure of that was to watch her, along with the face that she loved watching the Blonde she always had done. As the Titanic sunk and Rose and Jack were stranded in the sea, Clarke's eyes began to fill with tears as she watched the scene unfold on the screen, as Clarke got more and more caught up in the scene Lexa shuffled closer to the Blonde wrapping her arm around Clarke who accepted the embrace resting her head on Lexa's shoulder as her hands came to rest on Lexa's outer thighs. They stayed like that for the rest of the film and as the credits rolled Clarke looked up at Lexa asking if she wanted to watch another film, not wanting to remove herself from Lexa's embrace, Lexa agreed and Clarke chose another film, this time opting for The Nutty Professor knowing it was one of Lexa's favourite comedy movies.

They watched the film in silence neither saying a word instead enjoying being in each other's company, the film played out and soon enough the credits rolled and Clarke had no idea where the time had gone. She had forgotten how comforting and relaxing being in Lexa's embrace could be to her, forcing herself to sit up and remove herself from Lexa's arms she smiled at the brunette looking at the clock and noticing it was now nearly 11pm and whilst that wasn't late for some people she'd been awake since 6:30 thanks to Oscar and after the worry that the day had thrown at her she couldn't wait to lay in her bed and just relax. The both agreed it was time to go to bed, turning off the TV and all appliances that needed to be switched off, they made their way up the stairs Clarke told Lexa to follow her into her bedroom once inside she walked over to the chest of drawers near the bathroom suite opening one of the draws she reached inside it pulling out a pair of shorts and a t-shirt that Lexa recognised as her own. Lexa accepted the two items with a smile before her and Clarke both awkwardly said goodnight to each other neither of them knowing whether to hug or not, they both opted for a weird wave and a simple verbal goodnight. Lexa turned and walked out of the bedroom closing the door behind her to leave Clarke in peace as she thought of it in her mind.

Once she was in the guest room Lexa got changed and laid down in the bed, instantly feeling uncomfortable in the bed it wasn't that it wasn't a comfortable bed or that she didn't want to be in the room. It was more that whenever she'd slept in this house it had been when she lived there when her and Clarke were doing great, she'd only slept with Clarke in their bed or she'd fallen asleep with one of the twins and ended up sleeping with one of them in their bed, but other than that she hadn't ever slept in the guest room, and the more her mind ran off with itself the more she found it almost impossible to fall asleep thinking about all that had changed and all that was wrong with her life at the moment. As she thought about the bad times, Oscar and Olivia popped into her head they happiness that they had when they saw her, the smiles on their faces and the way they would say 'Mama' with such pride. She knew that they were the reason she hadn't given up hope yet, no matter what they were a part of her and no matter what artist she helped produce a track or how many of them tracks went to number one, the twins would always be her greatest achievement. After a while her mind kept on the twins reliving moments in her head, from their first words to their first steps and everything before and after, soon enough she fell asleep thinking about everything related to her children.


Unknown to Lexa, in their old bedroom Clarke had the same problem no matter how hard she tried she couldn't seem to settle her mind knowing Lexa was so close to her. When she got into the bed laying on what used to be Lexa's side of the bed she was tired, but then she heard the guest room door close and no matter how hard she tried she couldn't stop thinking about how much she'd missed being in Lexa's arms over the months that had passed, those thoughts lead to her thinking about the possibility that Lexa hadn't done anything wrong and she'd believed someone she hated instead of the person she had been in love with for over a decade. Just as Lexa had done she found herself thinking about the twins, thinking about every moment since they were born, all the moments she had shared with Lexa, moments that made her smile everytime she thought about them. Soon enough she had drifted to sleep, hours later she found herself waking up instinctively she slowly opened her eyes blinking them a couple of times until her vision was clear, rolling to her right her eyes landed on Oscar standing near her bedroom door, he was standing with his hands rolled up in the lower half of his top rolling to the edge of the bed Clarke removed herself from the covers placing her feet firmly on the floor, turning on the lamp before walking over to her son and leaning down in front of him, looking at the clock she noticed it was 2:10am in the morning looking back to Oscar she noticed the sad expression on his face;

"What's wrong baby? Why are you awake so late?"

"I had a bad dream Mommy"

"You did?" Oscar nodded his head at her, moving onto her knees she shuffled forward holding her arms up to him. Oscar quickly moved forward quickly wrapping his arms around her neck as he gently rested his head on Clarke's shoulder "My poor little prince…you wanna snuggle with Mommy?" She asked, knowing that letting Oscar was still sick and it made him feel better when they snuggled in bed together. Oscar nodded his head against his Mommy's shoulder "Ok then…it's Mommy and Oscar snuggle time" She softly responded lifting Oscar up with her as she stood herself up, walking over to her bed she laid Oscar down on the side of the bed that she didn't sleep on, helping her son under the covers she watched as he crawled over to the side he knew she slept on waiting to snuggle with his Mommy. As she went to walk around the bed to climb in next to Oscar, Clarke heard footsteps on the floor outside, turning around she noticed Olivia walking into the bedroom tears streaming down her cheeks as she had one hand on her chin whilst the other was rubbing her stomach with her t-shirt clenched in her fist, stopping in her tracks Clarke turned and walked back over to her daughter leaning down in front of her wiping away her daughter's tears "Princess what's wrong?"

"Feel sick Mommy…"

"Sick like before?" Olivia nodded her head at the question, Clarke moved forward trying to hug her daughter only for Olivia to step back "What's wrong baby?"

"I want Mama"

"Mama is sleeping baby, why don't you come snuggle with me and Oscar huh?"

"Nooooo…." Olivia moaned out, the tears beginning to flow quicker than seconds before "I want Mama" She cried out before her moan turned into a full on cry, Clarke watched as Olivia burst into tears in front of her she wanted to go wake up Lexa but she wasn't sure about it, moving forward she again went to hug Olivia only for her daughter to move again, gently placing her hands on Olivia's arms to hold her in place to try and calm her down before she had a chance to say a word to Olivia, a voice came from behind her daughter.

"Hey princess what's wrong? Why are you crying?" Clarke looked up now noticing Lexa walking down the hallway towards her and Olivia, to her surprise their daughter didn't take off in a run to her Mama but instead turned around looking up at Lexa with sad eyes as she raised her arms into the air holding them up at her Mama. Lexa continued to walk quickly towards Clarke and Olivia, stopping in front of Olivia she leant down lifting her daughter off of the floor and onto her chest "Hey baby what's wrong?" She asked as Olivia clung to her wrapping her arms tightly around her Mama's neck burying her head in the crock of Lexa's neck sniffling back more tears, Lexa didn't push Olivia instead she just rubbed circles on her daughters back sending Clarke a comforting smile as she looked past Clarke seeing Oscar sitting up in Clarke's bed looking over at them. When he noticed Lexa looking over he waved softly and tired at her, waving back she smiled at him before looking down at Olivia and again asking "Are you still feeling sick princess?" Olivia nodded her head softly at the question before she sniffled back more tears pushing herself against Lexa's shoulders until she was looking at her Mama;

"I had a bad dream Mama" The sentence beaked both Clarke and Lexa's interest, mainly Clarke's due to the fact that Olivia hadn't mentioned a bad dream to her when they spoke moments ago, though she knew Olivia was upset at the moment and that was probably why she didn't say.

"How bad of a dream?"

"Really bad Mama….and really scary"

"What happened in your dream?"

"Don't want to say"

"Why not?"

"Don't like making Mommy sad"

"Mommy won't be sad not if you tell her what's wrong baby…right Mommy?" Lexa finished looking over at Clarke who smiled softly at her and nodded her head in agreement "See…now tell Mama what happened in this dream"

"You, me, Mommy and Oscar were all playing in the park…but then we were home and the bad man was being mean to Mommy….and he pushed Mommy and hurt her really badly" Olivia explained lifting her head a little looking at her Mama whilst at the same time keeping a firm grip on her Mama's shirt as she explained her nightmare to her Mama

"The bad man hurt Mommy in your dream?"

"Yeah…Mommy was crying and you saved Mommy but the bad man gave you bad medicine"

"Bad Medicine?"

"The strawberries Mama…he gave you it all and then Mama was on the floor…then you were gone forever Mama and he was laughing and being mean to Mommy, and Mommy was crying loads and loads"

Lexa's heart almost broke as she listened to her daughter explaining her nightmare, she could see the pain and upset in her daughter's eyes and she knew herself that the worst nightmares always seemed so real and she was guessing that this was one of those nightmares from how Olivia was acting at the moment. "Is that when you woke up?" She softly asked as Olivia clung to her shirt tightly, she felt a pang of relief fill her body when Olivia nodded her head, she was thankful mainly for the fact that Olivia hadn't had to experience anything more disturbing in her nightmare than she already had. "Well I promise you that it was just a dream, Mommy isn't crying or hurt really bad and Mama isn't gone forever" Olivia didn't respond she just continued to sadly frown leaning her head down against Lexa's shoulder again wrapping her arms around her Mama's shoulders, turning her head and burying it in the crock of Lexa's neck again. Lexa looked awkwardly down at Olivia reaching down she wiped away Olivia's tears the best she could before she softly whispered "Look Mama is fine…and Mommy is fine, so that means it was definitely just a nightmare and none of it was real"

"But the bad man was here Mama" Olivia whispered against Lexa's skin, the left over moisture from her tears wiping off onto Lexa's skin.

"When was the bad man here?"

"Before Mama"

"Does Mama know the bad man?" Olivia nodded her head into Lexa's neck, thinking for a second Lexa put all the pieces of the puzzle together realising who the bad man was "Is Roan the bad man Olivia?" Lexa soothingly rubbed Olivia's back when her daughter held onto her even tighter shuddering slightly at the mention of Roan's name. Looking down at Olivia, Lexa waited for an answer until Olivia softly nodded her head at the question "Well the bad man isn't here anymore and he won't come back"

"What if he does Mama?" Olivia softly whispered lifting her head up slightly to look at her Mama

"Then Mama will protect you from the bad man"

"But he will hurt you Mama…" Olivia let out a small cry as fresh tears escaped her eyes as she looked into her Mama's eyes "I don't want you to be gone forever Mama"

"I won't be gone forever…I promise you, ok?" Olivia looked up at Lexa her face expressing that she was contemplating the information she had just been given by her Mama, seeing the expressions on Olivia's face Lexa carried her daughter over to Clarke's bed sitting herself and Olivia down on the bed she laid back so Olivia was laying on her chest, turning to look at Oscar as he crawled the short distance across the bed to his Mama, as he reached her she softly asked "How strong is Mama, Oscar?"

"Mama is superman strong"

"And can Superman be beaten by any human?"

"No Mama"

"So can Mama?"

"NO" Oscar excitedly let out bouncing slightly on the bed as he looked at his twin sister, reaching forward he gently rubbed his sisters back, having heard everything she had said to their Mama he knew she was upset and wanted to help comfort her "Mama is Superman strong Livi, that means nobody can beat her…" Olivia looked at Oscar hesitantly before she lifted her head from her Mama's chest and softly asked her twin;

"The bad man can't beat Mama?"

"No, never…because Mama is too strong for him"

As Oscar finished his sentence Lexa watched the smile spread across Olivia's face before she turned and looked down at her smiling brightly as she leant forward resting her head on her Mama's chest "There's my princess' smile" Olivia laughed at her Mama's words before she softly leant forward kissing her Mama on the lips quickly, dropping her head onto her Mama's chest Lexa smiled at the little girl's action before looking to her son "Thank you Oz"

"Your welcome Mama" He smiled leaning forward and doing as his sister had done moments before, kissing his Mama quickly on the lips, shuffling back slightly he hopefully looked at her "Mama can we have a Woods sleep?"

"You mean a Family sleep?" Oscar nodded his head at his Mama as he bit his bottom lip in slight suspense "Not tonight baby, I'll put you and your sister back to bed and then in the morning we can all have breakfast but no Family sleep tonight" She watched the sadness creep onto Oscar's face reaching her right hand up she ran it softly through Oscar's messy hair "No sad faces Oz"

"But I want to cuddle with you and Mommy"

"I know but not to…."

"It's ok Lexa…they can both sleep in here with us…as long as you're ok with it" Clarke interjected smiling at her ex, if she was honest letting Lexa sleep in what used to be their bedroom with the twins wasn't just for the twins it was for her as well, she felt safe with Lexa around and after what had happened with Roan earlier she needed to feel safe right now.

"I'm more than fine with it, are you sure though?"

"Yeah I am"

"Yaaaayyy…Mommy said yes Mama" Oscar excitedly say, Olivia lifted her head up looking at her Mama with hope in her eyes. Lexa simply smiled sitting herself up and softly throwing her daughter at the pillows of the bed, as Olivia landed on the pillows safely, Lexa looked at Oscar smirking as her son looked up at her his hands clasped over his chest as if he was anticipating something reaching forward she picked Oscar up, a loud giggle escaping her son's mouth as she did so, shaking him softly in the air she kissed him on the cheek before doing as she had done with Olivia softly throwing her son at the pillows, Oscar landed on the pillows to the right of Olivia letting out a small giggle as he landed next to his sister.

Without a second thought Lexa crawled across the bed onto the side she used to sleep on, noticing Clarke's phone was on the bedside cabinet next to the bed she quickly realised that Clarke must sleep on this side of the bed, not thinking into it she pulled the covers back sliding underneath them, as she did that Clarke climbed in the other side of the bed as Oscar and Olivia carefully moved themselves under the covers between their Mommy and Mama. Oscar was next to Clarke and Olivia was lying next to Lexa, Clarke turned off the lamp before rolling onto her side, a smiled spread across her face as Oscar rolled into her resting his head against her chest as he leant into her, laughing softly Clarke laid more onto her back allowing her son to lay on her chest more.

Next to them Lexa was laying on her back with Olivia laying on her, her head resting on Lexa's stomach just below her breasts. Lexa looked down at Olivia gently stroking her hand through her daughter's hair repeatedly, Olivia continued to lay on Lexa's stomach until a few minutes later when she sat herself up looking at her Mama her eyes filled with a little sadness, removing her hand from Olivia's hair Lexa held her hands in the air in Olivia's direction knowing that her daughter wanted to lay on her chest properly like she always did when she had a bad dream. Olivia quickly moved forward until Lexa's hands were under her arms, allowing her Mama to pick her up, Lexa lifted Olivia into the air carefully laying her daughter on her chest, as she did so she shuffled herself towards the middle of the bed a little so that neither her nor Olivia fell off the bed at any point. As Olivia landed on Lexa's chest the little girls hands instantly moved to rest on Lexa's sides, Olivia's head rested on Lexa's chest facing Clarke and Oscar whilst her legs rested on either side of Lexa, the front of the little girl's legs resting on the mattress gently, Lexa brought her arms up to wrap around her daughter's chest holding onto her firmly but gently, slowly adjusting herself until she comfortable enough to sleep.

It hadn't been long after that when Lexa, Clarke, Olivia and Oscar all feel asleep the events of the whole day taking its toll on them all. Oscar stayed curled up against Clarke the whole night, her arms naturally moving to hold her son as she slept during the night, making him feel only more comforted and relaxed. All four of them slept comfortably through until around 7am when Lexa woke up instinctively, she was so used to waking up early over the last few months that it was second nature to her even on her days off. Carefully removing Olivia from her chest leaving the little girl sleeping next to her brother and Mommy, Lexa made her way to the guest room getting herself dressed as she exited the guest room she was meet by Olivia, Lexa watched as the sleepy smile spread across Olivia's face walking forward she scooped Olivia up off of the floor and onto her chest. She carried Olivia downstairs making herself a tea and some cereal she made Olivia a glass of orange juice before deciding to sit and watch some cartoons with her daughter who was still half asleep. As she was eating her cereal Olivia sweetly asked her for some of her cereal which then lead to her sharing her bowl of cereal with her daughter.

The two of them continued to watch cartoons on the TV after finishing the cereal, both of them drinking their respective drinks. As Lexa finished her tea she heard footsteps on the stairs, looking over she smiled seeing Oscar rubbed his eyes sleepily removing Olivia from her lap she walked over to Oscar leaning down she greeted her son getting a smile and a massive hug from him. She then took him into the kitchen to make him some breakfast of his own, he had gone with cereal as well before asking for his medicine, Lexa obliged giving her son the medicine he was meant to have before taking him into the living room carrying Olivia's medicine in with her giving Olivia the medicine she returned it to the cabinet and then returned to the twins sitting on the couch smiling when Oscar sat on the opposite side of her to his sister, almost sandwiching her in between them. Once Oscar had finished she let the twins enjoy their cartoons for a while before she decided to get them ready, opting to let Clarke sleep a little longer knowing that she was up early every morning with the twins. Once Oscar and Olivia were ready they returned downstairs again sitting and watching TV this time the twins decided they wanted to watch The Jungle Book but this time they wanted to watch the live action version, Lexa obliged placing the Blu-ray on for her children.


At around 9:30am Clarke woke up in her bed alone, it took her a few seconds to remember what had taken placed but as soon as she did she wondered where Oscar, Olivia and Lexa were. Removing herself from the bed she walked out of her room and down the stairs smiling as she came across Lexa sandwiched between the twins as they watched a film. As she removed her foot from the final step Olivia noticed her, instantly jumping out of her seat and onto the floor running over to her Mommy excitedly, as Olivia reached her Clarke lifted her into the air and onto her chest. Olivia sweetly smiled at her Mommy greeting her with a sweet 'Good Morning Mommy' Clarke couldn't help but giggle at the happiness in her daughter's voice. Waving and greeting Lexa and Oscar good morning Clarke carried Olivia into the kitchen as her daughter filled her in on everything that she had done since she woke up. Making herself a coffee Clarke made up some toast for herself smiling as Olivia told her about how Lexa had cereal and let her share with her. Clarke carried her coffee and toast into the living room with help from Olivia as she carried her daughter. Joining Oscar and Lexa on the couch the four of them spent the next few hours watching back to back films of the twins choice, until it got to about 2pm and Clarke decided she needed to get dressed, Olivia sweetly asked if she could stay with her to which Clarke of course agreed letting her daughter lead the way to her bedroom. Twenty minutes later her and Olivia returned to the living room and Lexa and Oscar. The foursome decided to watch another film before Clarke would have to make the dinner.

Neither her nor Lexa thought about Lexa having to leave at a certain time they were both just enjoying spending time together with the kids without there being any drama between them. Soon enough time carried on and Clarke had prepared then cooked food for all four of them, and again soon enough the food had been served up and eaten by all of them, as time went on more both Lexa and Clarke knew that Lexa would have to leave before the twin's bedtime otherwise they would expect her to be there when they woke up. As they washed and dried the plates and cutlery together as they had the night before they talked about what was best, they both decided that it was best for Lexa to leave about 6pm that way any upset the twins felt would tire them out and perhaps help with them getting to sleep. And sure enough 6pm came around and Lexa got the twins to sit down on the couch together explaining that she had to leave now, that sentence lead to the inevitable flood of tears from Oscar and Olivia, both of them insisting that their Mama stay with them another night. Lexa managed to calm them down slightly, enough for her to say goodbye to them and get a kiss and a hug from them both.

Walking out of the door knowing her kids were unhappy was probably one of the hardest if not the hardest thing that Lexa had ever had to do. As she was about to reach her apartment she texted Clarke asking how the twins were unable to stop herself worrying about them getting too upset. Clarke instantly texted her back telling her that Oscar and Olivia weren't happy and were both not talking to her, Lexa for some reason found herself apologising to her ex, only for Clarke to reinforce that she didn't have a reason to feel be sorry. As she walked through her apartment door she felt her phone vibrating in her pocket pulling it out she was surprised to see Clarke, still saved as My Love, was calling her answering the call Clarke explained to her that she had told the twins they could talk to her on the phone, she told them that it didn't mean Lexa would be there in the morning when they woke up and after a few times of re-explaining it to them they finally understood what she meant, that was when she called Lexa so they could say goodnight to her. Handing the phone to Oscar first Lexa began talking to her son, sitting herself down on her couch talking away to Oscar until she heard him getting tired, once he handed the phone to Olivia she did the same thing with her daughter talking with her until this time Olivia feel asleep with Clarke's phone attached to her ear. Once Clarke noticed she picked the phone up telling Lexa both Oscar and Olivia had fallen asleep, the two women talked for hours to each other about numerous things until they themselves started to feel tired and feel asleep reminiscing with each other.

It was now 10:50am on Monday Morning, Clarke had dropped the twins off at Pre-school at 8am made her way home quickly cleaning the living room and kitchen before leaving the house again at 10:30am, twenty minutes later and she was at Arkadia Café waiting with a coffee for Octavia to get to the café, the longer she waited the more nervous she was about what she would be told by her best friend. She was there for five minutes when Octavia walked through the door of the café, she instantly spotted Clarke walking happily over they greeted each other with a longer hug than normal, realising each other they sat back down, Octavia removed her jacket placing it on the back of the chair as a waitress approached her, ordering a coffee she smiled thankfully at the waitress her and Clarke remaining in silence until the same waitress reappeared with Octavia's coffee placing it on the table in front of her. Placing the coffee mug in front of her Octavia looked thoughtfully at Clarke asking;

"So why did we need to meet up again?"

"Nice try Octavia, but you know exactly why I wanted to meet up"

"Fine…." Seeing the unimpressed look on Clarke's face she added "What? …it was worth a try, last time we spoke about this you got really upset and it lead to you and Lexa breaking up"

"Well this could lead to me and Lexa getting back together"

"So you don't think she cheated?"

"I really don't know Octavia, that's why I needed to talk to you"

"What do you mean you don't know Clarke?"

"Exactly what it sounds like I mean O"

"What's brought this on?"

"Something my mom said, on top of the fact that Lexa refuses to admit she slept with Nia, no matter what I say to her"

"Maybe she's just riding it out"

"Riding what out O? our marriage is practically all but over, we're both suffering and the twins aren't doing great without her there and she knows that. If she could have it all back, then she would I know she would"

"Maybe she knows your doubting what you heard"

"No, it's not that. I told her that if she admitted to sleeping with Nia then I'd forgive her and let her move back in, so that we could start again…but she point blank refused to admit it."

"Why wouldn't she just admit it? Raven tells me how much she misses you all, all the time"

"Exactly O, it doesn't make sense why she wouldn't just admit it and move on"

"Not unless she knew you were bluffing" Octavia took a sip of her coffee looking up and back to Clarke seeing the look on Clarke's face she added "You were bluffing weren't you?"

"I don't think I was O"

"So even if she did cheat you'd forgive her?"

"Possibly…. probably…I don't know O, right now I need to know if she actually cheated. That's why I need you to tell me exactly what you heard Nia saying"

"Are you sure this is a good idea Clarke?"

"O, I need to hear this either way it's gonna be upsetting…either my wife cheated on me with someone I've hated for a long time or my wife didn't cheat on me and I believed my best friend over her no matter what she told me and ruined our family over a lie"

"I didn't lie to you Clarke, I wouldn't…not about something this serious"

"I know you didn't O, and I haven't asked why I can't tell Raven I found out from you…and right now I don't really care I just need to know what you heard"

"Do you want to hear I though?"

"What I want doesn't come into it anymore…" When Octavia raised her eyebrows at the statement she added "This isn't about just me anymore, this is about my kids, I need to be able to look them in the eyes and tell them that I made the right decision, and I can't do that until I have all the facts so please can you tell me what you heard"

"Are one hundred percent sure?"

"Yes"

"Ok. Well like I said me and Monroe were out having lunch at Gardia's you know Nia's restaurant" Clarke nodded her head signalling that she knew of the restaurant "We were seating at a table near the back and after we ordered our food we waited, Nia came in and went to the back office I presume…anyway ten or something minutes later our food arrived and we started eating, I got a call from Raven so I went outside to answer the call when I got back I sat down and Nia was sitting behind me with Roan and one of their friends, I started talking to Monroe again and then I heard Nia laughing and saying Lexa's name so I stopped Monroe talking and starting listening in…"

"What exactly did Nia say?"

"I told you before, she said that her and Lexa were hanging out after she broke up with her ex, they started reminiscing and then they were having sex on her couch..."

"I know that but I mean, details did she mention anything in detail?"

"Clarke…I'm not sure you wanna hear this"

"O, I know you're being a good best friend but I need to hear this, like I said want doesn't come into it so can you please continue…"

"Ok, she started off saying that Lexa was moaning about you and how you were trying to get change the den into a playroom for the twins…" Clarke closed her eyes for a second knowing that, that fact was true she had been moaning at Lexa about the den. Opening them quickly she continued to listen to her best friend "She said that lead to them having a drink or two, then they started reminiscing about when they were together in high school, she said that Lexa…..." Octavia paused not quite knowing if she should say the next sentence

"Octavia, its fine I need to hear it all please"

"She said that Lexa told her she wished that you and her never got together, that you never got married or had the twins…" Clarke's face contorted slightly, that didn't sound like Lexa at all, she loved the twins Clarke knew that "She said that the more they talked the closer they moved together until Lexa kissed her, they started making out and Nia stopped it, she asked if Lexa was sure she wanted to cheat on you and Lexa said yes….they kept kissing and on thing lead to another and the start removing each other's clothes…She said she started kissing down Lexa's neck…" That raised a red flag for Clarke, Lexa was never one to be lead during sex, she always took the lead when it came to them, but that didn't mean anything really maybe Lexa wanted someone else to take control ignoring her doubts she listened to Octavia again "She said that she kissed her way down Lexa's stomach over her six pack and every muscle she could get her mouth too….then she made her way to Lexa's pants and unbuttoned them kissing her way down further until she reached Lexa's right hip and her scar…" That was a MASSIVE red flag for Clarke, so much so that it forced her to speak;

"Wait what?"

"I said she kissed over Lexa's scar on her right hip" Octavia's words confirmed Clarke's worst nightmare, it confirmed exactly what she had spent the last year alone for…...finding her words she fluttered her eyelids numerous times before clearing her throat and speaking;

"Lexa doesn't have a scar on her right hip…."


So they didn't kiss…I'm sorry but come on it's never that easy lol…But have no fear next chapter will involve more Clexa along with some Octaven as I shall call them (Not much but some )….Sooooo Clarke has finally seen a flaw in the story…will she believe Lexa now? ….As you can tell I'm not giving too much away at present lol but alas What are everyone's thoughts? ... Anyways as always please feel free to leave a review/comment and/or inbox me personally, I hope you all enjoyed it and Until the next time Peeps and Peepettes Stay Safe and Keep Fanficing…
