"Aden!" Clarke shouted, as she saw the teenager walk past her open bedroom door that she was pacing up and down frantically.
"Sha Clarke?" He asked curiously, stopping to stand in the doorway.
Clarke crossed the room and he could see the panic shining in her eyes, "Have you seen Lexa? She teaching yesterday afternoon but then she didn't come back. I fell asleep and now I don't know what's happened to her! What if-"
Aden quickly took hold of her hand and pulled her out the door, down the steps to the left of hers and Lexa's room to the floor below, where he quickly opened the first door.
"Don't worry Clarke, they stole my bed last night."
The panic faded as she caught a glimpse of Lexa, who was buried under a pile of children, her chest rising and falling steadily as she slept.
"So this is what you decided to do instead of come to bed last night." Clarke said loudly, her voice causing Lexa to jolt awake, night bloods practically rolling off her as she sat up and looked towards the window.
Her face was apologetic as she carefully slipped out from under them all to walk over to Clarke, "I am so sorry Clarke, I was just telling them a story but then I must have fallen asleep."
"Don't be angry at Heda!" A small voice cried out from the bed, although Clarke couldn't quite make out who had said it, "She was telling us how much she loves you!"
The apologetic look was replaced by one of embarrassment as Lexa just opened and closed her mouth helplessly whilst Clarke laughed, stepping past her to address the girl who had jumped up to stand on the bed defiantly, "Really? And what did she say?"
"That she loved you as soon as she saw you!" The kid cried out happily.
Clarke winked at the girl and mouthed thank you before going back to Lexa and taking her hand, "Aden, we'll see you later?"
"Of course Clarke." He grinned as they left the room, before going straight to the bed to get his classmates to tell him exactly what Lexa had been saying about Clarke.
"So!" Clarke smirked as they walked down the corridor, "It was love at first sight was it?"
"It was what?!" Came an excited shout as Octavia bounced around the corner, causing Lexa to groan and hide her face in her hands.
Clarke laughed gleefully as she threw her arm over Octavia's shoulder, turning so they were facing Lexa who was glaring at Clarke as though she was about to kick her off the tower. "Lexa told her students that it was love at first sight when she saw me."
"Aww!" Octavia started, her eyes glinting mischievously.
Before she could get out another word, Raven seized hold of the back of her shirt and yanked her backwards, "Tormenting people again Octavia? What would Lincoln say?"
"Raven!" Lexa smiled happily, "My favorite member of Skaikru!"
Clarke pretended to wince, "That hurts Lexa, that really hurts."
Lexa just gave her an impassive stare, "I stand by what I said, she doesn't try to force humor on those who don't find her funny."
Raven chocked out a laugh as Clarke just shook her head and stuck her tongue out childishly at Lexa, "Whatever, I know you love me really, and I even have the word of children to prove it."
Lexa was silenced in her next retort as Raven waved her hand between them, reluctant to break up the banter they were engaged in but not willing to wait for them to stop of their own accord. "I hate to break this up guys but I need to borrow Clarke's medical skills."
Instantly serious, Clarke looked over Raven in case their was some life threatening wound she was only just mentioning, not finding any she looked back up at her face, "What is it Raven?"
"My girlfriend did a stupid thing and I need you to come sew her back together because she's bleeding all over our bath." Raven said, sounding annoyed at whatever it was Ontari had done.
"You put her in the bath?" Clarke asked in confusion.
Raven smirked, "I don't want her to bleed all over our bed, and quite frankly, with her night blood she looks like something out of a horror movie right now. Plus she tried to make me laugh to stop me yelling, and let's just say the method she used had the opposite affect."
Clarke sighed, waving her hand towards their room, "Come on then, show me what I have to deal with now." She placed a quick kiss on Lexa's cheek as she left, "I love you, just give me an hour to sort this."
"Oh you might need more than an hour." Raven said with a grin as they walked.
"So..." Octavia drawled as she turned to Lexa once they had gone, "Love at first sight?"
"Shof op Octavia." Lexa rolled her eyes, after a moment she looked back at her, "Can you blame me?"
Octavia laughed, "Well for me personally? Clarke's just not my type, and I have no comparison to make because I thought Lincoln was a crazy, murdering kidnapper when I first met him so you'll have to tell me what love at first sight is like."
Lexa smiled as she looked at Octavia, "I can tell you exactly, I looked at Clarke and thought, this is the person who is going to cause me more trouble than anyone else in the world. And my next thought was, I'm going to let her."
"Worth it?"
Lexa shrugged as they headed down towards the training grounds, "I'll let you know when I work it out."
