A/N Since I've gotten SO many reviews on how I missed the ending, I decided to put in Gravity: The Missing Chapter for you guys. It's just Lexa and Jesse's date, or part of it, but I believe you JL shippers will like it, hopefully.


Gravity the Missing Chapter

Lexa and Jesse sa at a round table in th fancy bar 1209. Lights were placed beneath the plexiglass tabletops to illuminate the table's space.

"Where'd you find this place?" Lexa inquired after a few moments of awkward silence between them. Lexa didn't know why it was so awkward, usually, they had so much to talk about at home.

Jesse pointed to the bartender. "See him?" Lexa nodded. "New mutant I know, he opened this place a little while I ago and he called me."

"Oh," Lexa said with a flicker of a smile playing on her lips and a glint in her eye. "Friends in high places, huh? Mob connections, maybe?" she teased.

Jesse nodded firmly, playing along. "Oh yeah, I'm all kinds of dangerous."

Lexa laughed. "Right," she said sarcastically.

Jesse took a drink from his glass. "Today was fun."

Lexa's eyebrows raised. "Fun? What alternate universe have you been living in?" Lexa asked.

"No," he shook his head. "No, to actually have a look at who you were before you joined Mutant X ... to see you through someone else's eyes."

Lexa took a sip of her wine. "Trust me, you didn't miss much, Jesse. Believe it or not, I was kind of a bitch back in those days."

"You're right, I don't believe it," Jesse answered with a small smile.

They smiled at each other for a second before Lexa spoke. "You know, when we're away from Sanctuary, away from Mutant X like this .. it's kind of hard to find things to talk about," she confided.

Jesse passed an incredulous look at Lexa. "Lexa Pierce lost for words?"

"No, I'm serious ... I guess we don't know each other as well as I would've thought," Lexa responded.

"What're you talking about? Of course I know you ... I know you're extremely competitive, can sometimes be cocky and stubborn, I know that you like to be the boss," he started. Lexa looked away and took another drink, not really making me feel better, Jesse she thought.

"I know you have a fettish for Jell-O snacks and Chinese food," Jesse went on, this made Lexa blush. "I know that when you're angry or sad ... your eyes, they get a little bit more blue," Lexa looked back at him and her eyebrows furrowed a little. "And I know that when the light hits you exactly right, your smile looks even brighter."

Jesse touched her cheek gently to prove it and Lexa bit her lower lip. "I know when I give you a compliment, I can see the dimples in both your cheeks," Lexa said, as if on cue, Jesse smiled, revealing his dimples. Lexa grinned and connected her eyes to Jesse's. His ice blue eyes got more intense as his hand swept from her cheek to her chin, his thumb touching her lower lip.

Lexa felt daring as she usually did when her and Jesse were alone. "I know that when I kiss you, you blush," she finished.

Jesse smiled, Lexa leaned forward and their lips met in a kiss, when Lexa pulled away she inhaled. "Okay, I know you," she gave in.

Jesse laughed. "I told you ... ready for dinner?"

Lexa paused, thinking back to what had happened between them in the past two minutes. "I could eat."

Jesse got out his chair and waited for Lexa. "Oh, and by the way, you blushed too."


The End ... really

A/N sorry it's so short but good stories aren't measured in length :-)
