Lexa woke up with the suns rays coming in but they werent bright enough to hurt hereyes. It was late morning. At first she didnt know where she was then felt someone next to her. She looked over and saw Jesse and smiled. She remembered everything now. "Morning sunshine."
jesse groaned and seen lexa "hey there"
"Well since it seems to be a nice day out was thinking we could take Alexis to the park and Shal can get some sunshine if she is up to it."
jesse reached over and played with lexas hair " how about we get her a few new clothes first" he smiled
"Hmm that might be a good idea but first the shower," she giggled.
jesse "yes first the shower for all of us"
he kissed her nose
She kissed him on the lips then got up. She wrapped one of the sheets around her then headed to the bathroom, turning on the hot water.
jesse rolled over onto the side lexa was on and closed his eyes
Lexa came back out and sat on the edge of the bed. "Come on sleepy head up time." She poked him in the back smiling.
jesse muttered "come on dont not now im wore out
Lexa laughed. "Oh come on you have more stamina than that to be worn out after one time."
jesse smiled "not if u had as much as a good time as i did last night u would be exhausted to
Lexa laughed. "Oh I did but I can go more than once."
jesse " oh so can i"
he pulled lexa down
Lexa squeaked as she was pulled down and giggled. She brushed her lips against his, teasing him.
jesse growled and kissed her passionately
jesse kissed her one last time before he got up
Lexa laid there for aminute then got up as well. She headed to the shower, she needed to check on Alexis too.
alexis was asleep on the floor
jesse went into the shower and turned on the hot water so he could stand under it
Lexa went in the shower and began to shampoo her hair
jesse laughed "well hi there lexa"
"Hi, needed a shower too," she winked. She put herself under the water to wash out the shampoo
jesse stepped back and watched her he wondered if she knew what she did to him
Lexa shook her head, spraying water everywhere. She turned around to see Jesse looking at her. "What??"
jesse "oh nothing" he grabbed the soap and started to wash
Lexa poked him with her index finger lightly. "What?? Tell me."
jesse "hey stop that" he laughed " look i just like watching u"
"Oh, okay," Lexa laughed. She took the sponge and filled it with water then squeezed it out over his head. "Now excuse me I have someone to go check up on. I'll be right back." She walked past then up behind him putting her arm around his neck and kissed him on the cheek.
jesse shook his head and slapped her in the butt "oh and who?"
"The other that I'm gona go sleep with," she teased
jesse looked at lexa " u sleeping with someone else?
he pouted
"Im kidding love Im just gona go check on Alexis then I'll be back."
jesse "ok, ill see you in a few he went back to his shower
Lexa smiled. She felt so light, like everything was just the best. She put on one of Jesse's shirts then walked out to go to her room. She opened it then closed it behing her.
ALexis??"
alexis was sprawled out on the floor
"Alex sweety wake up. What you doing on the floor??" She kneeled next to her.
alexis rolled over
Lexa chuckled, smiling in affection. She picked her up and put her back on the bed then covered her up. She kised her lightly on the forehead and left but not before getting clean clothes
jesse put some clean jeans on and a long sleeved shirt
he went to the lab,to check on things and was so relieved to see shal ok and asleep
jesse watched brennan sleep next to shalimar looks like im notthe only one in love he thought to himself
Lexa changed and found Jesse in the lab. "How she doing??" She had his shirt over her shoulder.
" she looks better the color is comming back in her face, her fever is back but not as bad and shes exhausted"
"Good. The fever should fight whatever is in her system and that antidote worked since she's getting better."
Jesse put a arm around lexa " im glad shes back lexa it felt like I lost my sister but I have her back and I have something else to
Lexa blushed and laid her head on his shoulder, putting her hand over his. "And now she'll be fine. What is it that you now have??" She kenw but she wanted to hear it. She felt like she was in a dream but knew she wasnt.
jesse smiled " i have my dream girl"
Lexa giggled quietly. "And I have my knight in shining armor."
jesse "so is alexis up?
"No she's asleep. I found her on the floor. GUess she's used to that but I put her back in bed.
jesse "lets let her sleep and shop ourselves who knows when the last time she had a good sleep
Lexa nodded she'd ask or leave a note for Adam to check on her. "Shop?? Where??"
jesse "anywhere u want"
Lexa laughed quietly. "Well let's look around see what we can find."
jesse looked around at the clothes waiting for lexa to pick some things
Lexa picked out a pair of blue jeans with small rhinestones on the right thigh, red dark red tank top, a white one, and a gray duster sweater
jesse seen some cute kid boots and looked at them "hey lexa look a kid can hurt someone wearing these"
Lexa raised an eyebrow. "That's why you buy the sneakers not the boots hun."
jesse laughed " well i would by my kid this if i had a daughter"
Lexa wasnt quite sure how to respond to that. "If you want them guess you can buy them." She giggled a little
jesse shook his head " they are too small for me dear
"so u got everything or did u want to search more"
"I think Alex might like them," Lexa commented. "I think she needs some shopping time."
jesse looked for the right size and picked them up "ok" he smiled at lexa and came over to her "hey lexa i think i never seen u so happy like this
Lexa blushed. "I think I can say the same for you."
jesse "me what are u talking about?" he asked as he tossed the shoes in the basket
"You've never looked for kids clothes before I dont think," Lexa replied
no i havent he grabbed a nice leather jacket and tossed it in the basket
Lexa snorted in laughter.
"Yeah....right Jess whatever you say."
jesse "i cant help it lexa i always wanted to be a dad, shes a cute kid she takes after her mom
"You are such a flatterer. She does need a dad you know," Lexa hinted
jesse moved in close to lexa " ill be happy to be the father of your child
does this mean shes staying
"Yes especially now that you accepted," she smiled.
jesse picked up lexa in his arms and spinned her then he kissed her not caring who was watching them
Lexa squeaked in surprise and kissed him back, wrapping her arms around his neck.
jesse looked at her " i guess we have some major shopping to do
Lexa laughed. "Yep guess so."
jesse "lets pay for this and get goin then" he pushed the cart and took lexas hand
"Sounds good." She smiled, taking his hand and headed to the cash register
jesse paid for the stuff and took it out to the car
"Let's see where's the best place to get clothes for a six year old??" Lexa thought out loud.
jesse shut the trunk and pinned lexa to the car and kissed her "well there is a kid store just down the block
Lexa hit the car lightly and kissed him back. "Guess that's were we go then. Unless you have other plans," she smirked, hinting about her being pinned against the car.
jesse was about to say something when he heard a car horn "damn people" he moved off lexa " we will continue babe" he opened her car door
Lexa laughed and got in. "To be continued definitely.
jesse drove off
jesse drove them to the kid store and parked
Hmm let's see we need shirts, shoes, shorts, maybe a cute little dress, jackets, mittens...wow lots of stuff," Lexa listed and laughed.
jesse " man i can feel the card burning in my pocket
jesse looked at lexa "dont forget she needs some toys"
"Hey Dominion pays our expenses remember," Lexa said slapping him on the arm lightly.
"That we should do with her instead so she can pick out her favorites."
so when the dominion gets the list of stuff we bought and asks u what its for what are u gonna say we are donating it to needy children?
"They dont look at the stuff they just pay it," Lexa grinned.
jesse laughed "yeah but i can see them now if they did "
Lexa laughed. "Dont even go there. That would be very...wrong."
jesse shrugged "ok if u insist but we can talk about that later i know something we shoukld get for u
"Ohhh no what is it?? Wait do I wanna know??" Lexa was a little unsure about what Jesse was going to show or suggest for her.
jesse smiled mischieviously "you'll see later
"Jesse you tell me now," Lexa said in a warning tone though it was more playful than threatning. "You tell me what you're thinking right now or....."
jesse laughed " well something red and small
"Oh god Jess," Lexa laughed. "I think I know but Im afraid to even think about it."
jesse walked away with a smile on his face
Lexa ran after him and jumped on his back. "You are so bad Jesse Kilmartin." She kissed him on the cheek.
jesse laughed "we should get done honey its 12 30
"You started it," she whispered. "Not me." She got off and opened the door, heading inside.
jesse acted innocent as he went in
Already Lexa was picking out cute clothes and got a stuffed lamb she thought was cute
jesse seen a cute pair of leather pants he then shook his head "lexa would kill me"
Lexa had gotten two pairs of pants, blue jeans with a buterfly and another with little beaded stars. She heard Jesse when she was walking towards him. "What would I do??"
jesse showed her the leather pants " i think this would make her abit too sexy for a kid
Lexa looked at the pant
jesse looked at her " speechless?
"Well they are. I think she can wait a a few years though until then we can stick to casual."
Jesse nodded and found a cute sundress
By 1:40 the two had bought four pairs of pants six shirts, two dresses, two pairs of sandals and sneakers.
jesse went to call and see how things were at sanctuary
he came back several minutes later
"So what's going on??" Lexa sked putting the stuff in the trunk.
jesse looked at her " shals still sick but brennans feeding her and alexis had a nightmare and adam is trying to calm her
"Probably one of those men scared her so bad she has nightmares about it," Lexa said bitterly.
jesse nodded
"Guess its home we go. Go check on her let her try out her new stuff then I think we have unfinishedbusiness."
She smiled mischeviously.
jesse yeah we do
he climbed into the car and started it up
Lexa felt a little funny on the way back but when she got home it was gone.
jesse looked at her " u ok lexa?
"Yeah I'm fine," Lexa giving him a reassuring smile.
jesse opened the car door " ok
Lexa helped unload the car and put the bags in her room. Then she went to find Alexis.

"Hey ALex you okay?? No more bad dreams??"
She said when she came into the rec room
alexis looked at lexa "no lexa"
"Me and Jesse got you some new clothes you can try them on when you want. They're in my room." Lexa turned to walk out the door.
alexis got up and followed lexa
Lexa opened the door to let her in then closed it. "You can try them on in and pick out what you like."
alexis looked at the clothes she never seen so much

"Ooo, too big. I guess we can exchange them or you'll grow into them," Lexa said.
alexis " i like them im just small
"Dont worry you'll grow fast. You'll be able to eat better here and as much as you want," Lexa said warmly.
alexis went to lexa and hugged her

"You pick something you want to do. Whatever it is."

jesse " ill make us a lunch while u and lexa get ready he walked out
"Thanks Jess." Lexa turned back to Alexis. "I need to tell you something sweetheart." She went over to the bed and motioned for the child to come sit next to her.
alexis climbed up on the bed and sat down

alexis "no he said my mommy didnt remember me and something bad happend to her
Well now I do," Lexa said quietly. "Leo was your uncle."
alexis looked at her
Lexa sighed. "I was being controled that's why I dont remember you but now I do it came back."
alexis said nothing " u mean your my mommy?
Lexa nodded in silence. "Yeah....
alexis didnt know how to react
Lexa sat there letting it sink in for her. She was still trying to process it all and she had most of it but the rest was still going.
alexis said nothing she just sat there
Lexa got up. "I'll let you think about all that it's still kind of a shock for me too." She didnt hug her though she wanted to. She strided to the door.
alexis " lexa? who is my daddy
"I....dont know." Lexa turned to look at her.

: alexis looked at lexa "can u help me?
Lexa stared at her for a minute then nodded. "Sure."
