A/N: Hey guys, so we closed this night on the show and it went really well! :) The audience gave great feedback and everyone went home on a real buzz. I was in such a good mood that I managed to write this in record time :) But yeah, thank you for all the nice reviews on the previous chapter, it was really nice hearing from you all. A couple of people have mentioned that they want some trouble to happen in the next few chapters and I think it's a good idea for something to go wrong soon, so I was thinking of maybe if you guys send me suggestions for what you want to see happen, and I will choose say my top 3 and then put it up next chapter so you guys can vote on what trouble we are going to see. Whatever it is will happen once they arrive back in Polis, so within the next three or four chapters the problem will occur. Love you all, and now I'm gonna fall in to bed haha :) Night guys! xx
"Wake up, wake up, wake up!" Came the excitable cries of the five year old as Cal launched himself onto the bed Ontari and Raven were sharing, landing heavily across the two of them.
"Cal!" Raven groaned, rolling over to yank him down between them.
Ontari's eyes flickered open and she fixed the boy with a stern look, "You better have a really good reason for waking me up."
Cal wasn't fazed by the look on her face, trusting her to much to be frightened, reaching out his hand he pulled the corner of her lips up into a smile, "Octavia said that you two kissed each other last night and that I should come and ask you guys about it right now."
Raven rolled her eyes, "I'm surprised Octavia can remember much at all from last night, she drank ten times what I did and everything's a little blurred for me."
"Blurred?" Ontari asked, almost worriedly.
Raven reached over Cal to cup Ontari's cheek gently, "Not that, that part of the night is crystal clear. Although a replay of it wouldn't be unwelcome."
The two girls kissed over the top of Cal's head, almost forgetting that he was there at all, but they couldn't forget long because his excited squeal soon filled the room.
Ontari pulled back and stared at him, "I take it this means that we will not be getting any peace and quiet any time soon?"
Cal grinned happily and grabbed their shoulders to pull himself up before jumping out of the bed, "Come on, it's time to get up!" He laughed, tugging on Ontari's arm when she stubbornly refused to move.
"Raven, the demon child has captured me, you need to save me." She groaned as she allowed Cal to pull her from the bed.
Raven just laughed as she sat up and swung her legs over the side of the bed, quickly fixing her leg brace in place. "Nope, not helping with that one."
"And here I thought you cared." Ontari muttered sarcastically, as Raven just shrugged at her with a sly smirk.
Cal grinned and jumped on the edge of the bed, wrapping his legs round Ontari's waist and his arms round her neck. "Come on, we need to go and get breakfast."
"I'm not a horse." Ontari groaned as the weight of his body nearly topped her over.
Raven grinned as she walked over to them, taking hold of Ontari's arm to pull her towards the same small place they had eaten at the day before.
When they got there, Ontari and Raven both grinned widely at the sight of Octavia lying slumped against the table, her hand rubbing at her head.
"You know you were the one who made the choice to drink that much." Raven chuckled as they sat opposite her, just as Lincoln got to the table and sat down, distributing plates among the five of them.
"Cal said he was going to get you both up so I picked up food for the three of you as well." Lincoln smiled at them, before turning to his girlfriend and digging her solidly in the ribs.
"Hey!" Octavia cried out, shooting into an upright position.
"Sorry." Lincoln said, with no traces of remorse on his face, before pushing her plate forward to where her head had just been resting. "I got you breakfast."
At the mention of the food, Octavia visibly perked up and started digging in along with the rest of them, who hadn't realized how hungry they actually were until the food had been placed right in front of them.
"So, you sold us out to Cal?" Raven mock glared at Octavia after a few minutes of eating.
Octavia shrugged with a smirk, "You two weren't exactly subtle last night, I just saved some time, someone would have told him. Does this mean that you two are together then?"
Raven looked at Ontari hesitantly, "Well, we haven't actually talked about it yet so I'm not really sure what-"
Ontari smiled as she watch Raven babbling before leaning forwards to catch her lips in a searing kiss, before moving her head back, "How about we just skip the talking?"
"Right, well that could work." Raven smiled before leaning in to kiss her again.
Octavia pretended to gag on the other side of the table, "Come on guys, we're eating here."
Cal frowned and kicked her under the table, his small foot catching her right on the kneecap, "Don't be mean Octavia."
Raven laughed so hard she went into a coughing fit as Octavia's mouth hung open.
"And I thought we were friends." Octavia shook her head in fake despair as Cal wrapped his arms around Ontari's waist, who patted him on the head once her own laughter subsided.
"Octavia was just teasing Cal, don't worry, although I did tell you he was a warrior did I not?" She grinned at Octavia who nodded in agreement, rubbing at her knee with a wince.
Once they'd all finished they quickly stood up, as Lincoln glanced at the door thoughtfully, "It's odd that we haven't seen Lexa and Clarke yet."
"Maybe Lexa wanted to keep Clarke all to herself." Raven grinned at they left the building.
Octavia chuckled and shook her head, "No way, it'd be the other way round, Lexa may be the Commander but Clarke calls the shots in their relationship."
They headed back towards the edge of the forest where Lexa's house way located, planning to knock and wake them up, but as they rounded a corner they caught sight of the two of them asleep under a tree not far from where the main bonfire had been the night before.
"Has Lexa just stopped caring about her reputation as a complete bad ass that doesn't let feelings affect her judgements?" Octavia asked with a chuckle, as they watched for a moment to confirm that they were both still asleep and had actually been out there all night.
Lincoln smiled, "I think that she has realized that she deserves to be happy as well. I'm glad, after Costia was killed the Commander withdrew, she was always calculating, but she was never cold before that. Here in the heart of Trikru lands she has nothing to fear from showing her softer side, these people would die for her because they love her as much as she loves them."
"How close are you to Lexa?" Ontari asked curiously, having noticed a few times that he was more knowledgeable than the average warrior.
"I grew up with her mentor, Anya, and so I knew Lexa a little before she became the Commander. The previous Commander used to pair me and Anya a lot because we were proven to be an efficient team, Lexa came along on many of our missions." Lincoln explained.
Octavia stared at them thoughtfully for a moment before shaking her head to clear it, looking back at the others as they walked over to where Clarke and Lexa were still lying down, "Come on then, we should wake them up before a wild animal wanders out of the woods and eats them."
"Do you really think that I am ever unaware of my surroundings Octavia?" Came Lexa amused voice as she raised her head and stretched as well as she could with one of her arms still trapped underneath Clarke's body.
Octavia jumped slightly when she realized that Lexa had probably been aware of them from the moment they came into sight.
"Clarke, it's time to wake up." Lexa murmured into her ear.
Clarke waved a hand over her shoulder, in front of Lexa's nose, "Five more minutes."
"Your friends are all standing round staring at us." Lexa tried again, as Clarke only shuffled closer.
"Well then tell them to get out of our bedroom." The rather irritable voice came back, as Clarke stubbornly refused to open her eyes.
Lexa sighed, "Clarke we are lying under a tree, not in our bedroom and I am losing sensation in my arm."
Clarke finally opened her eyes, seeing the others before sitting up. "I hate you all, I was dreaming."
"What about?" Octavia grinned as Lexa chuckled at the look on Clarke's face.
Her cheeks tinged pink, Clarke gave Lexa a betrayed look for laughing and then stared pointedly at Ontari and Raven, "So what did you two get up to last night?"
Raven placed her hands over Cal's ears who was looking confused, not understanding the subtext of the conversation, "Nothing we can talk about with a kid present." She winked, as Ontari smirked wickedly from next to her.
Clarke rolled her eyes, taking Lexa's offered hand to stand up, "So what's happening now?" She asked.
Lexa tilted her head to the side slightly as she though, "Later this afternoon Octavia's tattoo must be done, another night here and then we will leave for Polis in the morning, arriving early after noon to see what damage Roan and Aden have caused."
Ontari smiled reassuringly, "Roan's smart, I'm sure everything is going just fine."
"Lexa's going to kill us." Roan groaned, looking at Aden who wore a similar despairing expression.
"It's not that bad...is it?" Aden asked hopefully, looking over the reports they had received from the outer villages.
Roan layed a hand on his shoulder and shook his head, "We sent hunting bows to the fishing villages and fishing rods to the inland villages. And I still don't understand how we managed that. I think it is that bad Aden."
Aden clenched his jaw, staring down at the reports again before nodding resolutely, "We can fix this, I'll send riders out to collect the weapons and the rods and take them to where they should be. Lexa will never have to find out about it."
"That could work, but there will definitely be a drop in the fish and meat available in the capitol for a week or so, hopefully not too noticeable." Roan said, as he quickly drew up the orders on some paper and then called in the door guard, telling him to prepare the riders and send them out immediately.
With the decision made, Aden sat down at the head of the table they were using, "I thought I was doing so well."
For the first time since Lexa had left, Aden sounded his age again, clapping him on the shoulder Roan grinned, "Hey, you haven't started a war, I'll definitely take that as a success."
The humor from the Azgeda King helped alleviate the tension, smiling Aden nodded, "To success then."
"To success." Roan smiled, tiredly taking his own seat.
