Lexa glared at Clarke accusingly as she opened her eyes, Clarke quickly biting back the grin at the purple skin around Lexa's eye.

"It's not my fault." Clarke laughed, "I didn't tell you to try and catch the ball with your face. You may have many skills Commander, but that isn't one of them."

Lexa huffed sulkily, slipping out of the bed to pull on her boots, "Fine then, if you are going to mock me then I will be spending the day with Octavia."

Clarke grinned, assuming she was just joking and would come back to bed, but then she watched as Lexa slipped out of the room, slyly sticking her tongue out at Clarke as she disappeared.


"Ouch Lex." Octavia winced sympathetically as she opened her bedroom door to her, waving her arm to invite her in, "That looks like it hurts."

"You should try being me right now." Lexa groaned, sitting on the edge of Octavia's bed gingerly. "Everything hurts, and this cast is ridiculous." She complained, brandishing her coated arm.

Octavia grinned, "Have you told Clarke how much you hate it?"

Lexa just gave her a scathing look, "Clarke does not need another excuse to tease me relentlessly Octavia. And also on that subject, we need to find my girlfriend a hobby."

"You mean other than making it her personal mission to torment you?" Octavia smirked.

Sighing dramatically, Lexa let her self fall on to her back so she was lying across Octavia's bed, "She loves me, yet she takes every opportunity to mock me. It's perplexing."

"Don't worry." Octavia smiled, patting Lexa's arm sympathetically, "That's how Skaikru show love. They tease until one snaps and makes the other sleep on the couch."

Lexa looked up at her curiously, "Sleep on the couch?"

Octavia eyes eyes widened as her mouth split into a wide grin, "Please, oh please, next time she's doing it, tell her she has to sleep on the couch. And then come and tell me what her reaction is."

"I don't understand your amusement Octavia." Lexa said, her own lips twitching upwards at Octavia's reaction to her own words.

Just nodding, Octavia's smile didn't drop, "I promise that you will once you say it, would I lie to you?"

"Not if you want to live." Lexa joked back, as Octavia sat beside her on the bed, throwing her legs up so they were lying side by side. "Where is Lincoln?" She asked curiously, only just registering that Octavia's other half wasn't present in their room at such an early time of day.

Octavia let out a bark of laughter, "He will be so glad to know that you are so concerned for his well being, asking about him the moment you noticed his absence."

Lexa jabbed her in the ribs, "You are not as funny as you think you are Octavia."

The other girl rubbed at her ribs, shooting a glare at Lexa out the corner of her eye before her face softened and she smiled again, "If you must know, Ontari knocked early this morning. She wanted a sparring partner but I was tired and wanted to stay in bed. Lincoln volunteered to go with her instead so their probably knocking each others brains lose with sticks right now."

"I never thought I would have this." Lexa said quietly, after a long period of comfortable silence between the two girls.

"What? Peace and quiet?" Octavia joked.

"Hardly with you around." Lexa shot back with a smile, "I never thought I would have a family, not after my parents were taken by the mountain. I have said it before, but it's only in moments like these when I realize just how much I value you Octavia."

Octavia laughed lightly, holding up her hands, "Now then Lexa, don't go confessing your love for me, how would Clarke feel?"

Lexa grinned at her out of the corner of her eye before waving her hands to shush her, "Not in the same way as with Clarke, but I do love you Octavia, I love all of you."

Octavia was serious as she propped herself up on one elbow to look at Lexa properly, "And I love you Lexa, we all do, you're the sister I never had, and never knew I wanted."
