AN: I regret to inform you that I will only write when I feel like it. This story has a great potential, and I won't stop writing. It could take a while before I publish next chapter. If you really love this story, it's worth the wait. And I really hope you are patient because I'm sure you will love the ending. I think this story will end around 50 chapter? I don't know, maybe more or less. I hope you enjoy this!
As everyone had left, Clarke and Lexa were just about to leave. But stopped as she saw a blonde girl down the hall. She was standing still, just looking at Clarke. Clarke recognized the blonde as soon as she showed herself.
It was Emma. She walked towards Clarke. Not saying a single word. Clarke was speechless as Emma was standing in front of her. She didn't want to say something wrong. It looked like Emma didn't knew what she was going to say either.
"Hey…" Emma said with a low voice. Clarke pressed her lips to a thin line and tried to say hi, but her voice was so broken she only managed to whisper. She tried to cough to get the annoying weak whisper voice away.
"I'm sorry…" Emma began. She avoids looking in Clarke's eyes, because it was clearly too hard. "for the way I reacted when I found out… I guess I wouldn't have made a different choice than you if I were in the position you were" Emma bit her lip and looked carefully in Clarke's eyes.
Clarke smiled. She really didn't know what to say. "I'm sorry too" Clarke began with apologizing. Emma nodded her head. Clarke asked if she wanted to see Abby, and she wanted.
When Emma saw Abby, it didn't really hit her as much as it hit Clarke and Kane. Emma didn't know this woman, but knew who she was. Abby was Emma's birthmother, but not mother by heart. Not yet. She looked at the stranger who seemed to be in a peaceful sleep.
Emma wanted to tell the others that she was glad Abby was in a coma, but didn't want the others to misunderstand. Yes, she was glad Abby was in a coma, it was better than being dead. She figured it would be better to keep her mouth shut and say something else.
Kane offered Emma to sit on the chair next to Abby. Emma accepted it and sat down. First, she looked at Lexa and Clarke who were sitting on the couch, then she looked at Kane who stood beside her. Then she looked at her birthmother.
"Hey Abby" Emma whispered. "I'm happy that you're still here. Because when you wake up, we are going to get to know each other" Emma smiled. She looked at Clarke who was looking at her. The two sisters shared a moment.
"and in the meantime, I'm going to get to know Clarke"
Clarke smiled and caused Emma to smile back with a delightful chuckle. It was quiet, but in Clarke's head it was noisy as fuck. Her mind was going wild. She was so excited to get to know her sister. Her big sister. She has always wanted a big sister, and now, she finally got one. Still, her mother was in coma and it was Christmas soon, but her sister? It was the biggest thought in her mind right now.
After the elder sister was done. The three girls said goodbye to Kane and headed out the door. Clarke offered Emma a ride home, and she gladly accepted. The ride was entertaining. Emma sat back in the middle and turned on the radio. The song 'Thousand miles by Vanessa Carlton' came on and Emma started singing.
Emma clapped her hands together and started singing. "Makin' my way down town, walking fast, faces past and I'm home bound" Emma sang carefully. Lexa thought it was funny and joined Emma. Lexa sang with a louder voice so Emma wouldn't be afraid to sing with a louder voice. "Staring blankly ahead, just makin' my way, makin' my way, through the crowd"
Lexa and Emma shook her head fast, looking to the left, then to the right. Clarke could laugh and smile at the reflection of her sister singing with her girlfriend. It seemed so fun, so Clarke joined too. "And I need you. And I miss you. And now I wonder"
Lexa turned the volume up. "If I could fall into the sky. Do you think time would pass me be? Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles if I could just see you tonight" The three girls started dancing in the car. It was crazy how much fun they had. After the song was done, they shared a good laugh.
It was like Clarke had known her sister her whole life. It was like reunion. It felt like they hadn't seen each other in years, but was still comfortable with each other. And she was glad it wasn't awkward between them. Because Clarke really don't know what to do when it comes to awkward situations.
It was unexplainable how hard and easy it was for Clarke to see Emma get out of the car. She wanted to smile, and get over excited about the thought of the secret that was finally out. She wanted to scream and hug the shit out of Lexa. Because she was so overjoyed. But on the other side, she wanted Emma to stay. Wanted her to be with her and not leave. They had been apart for 25 years, she didn't want to be a second more from her.
Lexa laid her hand on top of Clarke's. Pulled her hand and softly placed a kiss on it. Lexa smiled with proud smile at Clarke. The blonde didn't exactly know what Lexa was proud of, but she was grateful for it.
Clarke shrieked in silence and squeezed Lexa's hand. "ouch" Lexa pouted, she didn't actually get hurt, just wanted to let the blonde know the squeezing was a little hard. "oh my god, I'm sorry babe- I'm just so…" Clarke couldn't find a word to describe what she was feeling.
"I know babe. I know" Lexa simply said.
Clarke beamed at Lexa and leaned in for a sweet pleasurable kiss. She started gently pecking Lexa's lip and sat back against her seat. She admired that Lexa knew what was going on in her head. It was like they shared thoughts. And that was an incredible feeling. Lexa suggested Clarke could eat at her place today. Lexa lived only a few minutes away and both were pretty hungry.
"That was some heartbreaking stuff" Raven said to Finn as they stepped inside her apartment. She took of her scarf and hung it up. The Latino had a lot of body confidence so she wasn't afraid of undressing herself. She took of her t shirt and pants in the hall. Finn didn't really care, they were comfortable with each other. She changed to shorts and a sports bra.
"Raven" Finn started. He watched her take two beers out of the fridge and continued as she turned around. "I have to tell you something…" he sat on one of the bar chairs she had in the kitchen. Raven leaned on the stone kitchen table and payed attention to him.
"I'm really sorry" he started. "I didn't mean to do it… and I regret it so much… and you know I love you, okay? Never forget that" he grabbed Raven's hand. The girl pressed her lips to a thin line and nodded.
Finn took a deep breath and didn't hesitate a second. "Becca and I slept together when we were still together" he quickly said. Raven frowned and pulled her hand back. She took a few steps back and Finn got out of the bar chair and walked to her.
"You did what?" she said with a confused tone. "slept with Becca…? Be-behind my back… while we were still together?" Raven shook her head. "oh my god Finn" she looked up to the sealing, trying hard not to cry. "I can't even look at you" she turned around.
Finn turned her carefully around and tried to look in her eyes. But thousands of layers with hate were in the way. "I'm sorry-" he tried.
"you're sorry?!" Raven frowned and said with a stern voice. "What the hell Finn? Couldn't you control your fucking dick? You fucking cheated on me. I thought I was a bad girlfriend, but you're the one that's damn bad" she pushed Finn's chest.
"I don't even know who you are anymore" she said with a calmer tone. But was still angry with him. "who are you, Finn?" she asked and crossed her arms with a little frown.
Finn swallowed. He remembered the scene they saw in a movie together. A movie they liked so much. He tried to re-write the scene and improvised. "I'm just a boy. Standing in front of a girl. Asking her to forgive him for the horrible mistake he made when he was a stupid kid" he said.
Raven looked at him with less hate. She thought back to the time where Finn and she were together. They were so in love. He was the sweetest boy in the world. Giving her flowers, compliments and lots of kisses. She didn't want to be so hard on him, but it was just so hard not to. It was a long time ago after all, and she did make some mistakes too. But she didn't cheat.
Finn always wanted the best for everyone. And he always saw the best in everyone. He wanted them to feel loved, even though they didn't show love back. He helped old people get over the street, and helped children that weren't tall enough to reach the top shelf in the grocery store. He wanted to help everyone, and he always spread happiness. He was a good boy, and now, he's a good man. Only a real man is capable of telling the truth.
Raven inhaled. "Maybe if I gave you more attention and not studied all the time for school and didn't work in the garage…" she started. Finn shook his head. "Rae, it's not your fault. This is on me. I made the mistake, and you're not the reason why. You did nothing wrong" he grabbed her shoulder to get some sense in her. Finn always took the blame, just like Clarke.
Raven slipped her arms around his waist and rested her head on his chest. "Let's just say that the past stays in the past" she said. Finn wrapped his arms around her and kissed her on the head. "love you" he whispered. Raven smiled to herself. "love you"
This right here. Two people hugging. A boy and a girl, saying "love you" to each other. Not anything romantically, just a very strong and good friendship. Boys and girls can actually be really good friends without anything romantically in between.
Finn was relieved. His secret was finally out, and it felt amazing. And he had a job at a café. The only problem is. He is living with his crush, and he had to fix that. He didn't want Lexa to get upset so he thought about it and went to Bellamy's to ask him if he could move in. Bellamy nodded and said it was okay. He told Finn that he was welcome to stay as long as he needed. The boy was so grateful. He hurried to Clarke's penthouse and packed his stuff, did a little cleaning around the apartment and left.
"What do you want for dinner? I feel like I want some chicken" Lexa looked in the fridge. Clarke was thinking and Lexa just kept talking. "What about skillet chicken with Brussels Sprouts and apples? Or Chipotle Chicken Fajitas? Or maybe roasted parmesan chicken with tomatoes?" Lexa kept looking in the fridge and Clarke tried not to chuckle.
"oh!" Lexa said. "or grilled spiced chicken skewers with salad?" she suggested. Looking at Clarke who sat on the kitchen table. Clarke chuckled. "What about chicken and rice?" the blonde suggested.
"oh, that sounds actually really good. And simple" the brunette chuckled and turned around to cook. She poured raw rice in the rice cooker and fetched some chicken out from the fridge.
"Do you cook often?" the blonde asked. Lexa was busy finding all the small ingredients to the chicken. "Yes, I took a few cooking classes in my spare time" Lexa told. "I tried out a lot of things to see what I really wanted to do. I thought of myself as a dogwalker because I adore dogs, but it's not for me. I liked cooking but that was not enough, I wanted to do something more and bigger" Lexa said and walked to Clarke. The blonde was sitting on the table, so she was a bit taller than Lexa.
Clarke nodded. "did you try something else?" the blonde asked. Lexa laid her hands-on Clarke's thigh and thought. "hmm… yeah, but I don't remember everything. I was also tried to be an electrician for a week, but I zapped myself on a cable and it fried my shoulder" Lexa chuckle.
"oh no" Clarke laughed. "can I see?" she asked the brunette. Lexa nodded, she didn't know whether she would just bend over Clarke or turn around. She suggested it would be easier for them if Lexa just bend forwards and rest her head on Clarke's chest. Lexa pulled her sweater a little down and let Clarke look at the scar. "oh" the blonde whispered and carefully touched it. The blonde carefully placed a kiss on the scar and kissed her way up to Lexa's neck.
The brunette chuckled and grabbed Clarke's waist. Clarke rested her arms on Lexa's shoulders and linked her hands together behind Lexa's neck. Lexa bit her lip and looked at Clarke's rosy soft lips. "I'm so attracted to you" Clarke leaned in for a kiss. She pecked the brunette's lips and smiled broadly as she pulled back.
Lexa began cooking, and Clarke just admired her ass. She did get caught for looking at the brunette's ass and she blushed. A few seconds later, the catchy doorbell rings. Lexa went to get the door and smiled as she saw who it was. It was Costia and Luna.
"Hey Lex. Don't mind us, we're just going to borrow something" Costia said and dragged Luna in. They headed to the kitchen and noticed Clarke sitting on the kitchen table. Luna smiled and gave Clarke a warm hug. Luna just loved hugs, she hugged almost everyone. Costia just smiled.
"Hey, Lex? You didn't tell us your girlfriend was here" she said with a teasing voice. Clarke laughed because it seemed like Costia was beginning to get comfortable with Clarke and Lexa dating.
"Oh shit, are you guys on a date?" Costia bit her lower lip. Lexa walked in the kitchen and looked at the beaming blonde. The brunette murmured a simple "mhm" which means yes.
"Oh sorry, we just had to borrow something. You see, Luna and I are trying to bake a cake!" Costia started looking in Lexa's cabins. As Costia tried to reach something on the top shelf, Lexa just laughed at her and helped her.
"thanks, Lex" the orange curled girl hugged the brunette and waved a sweet goodbye to the blonde. Now Luna was the one grabbing Costia's hand and dragging her out of the kitchen. On her way out, Costia took an apple and let Luna lead her out. Lexa just shook her head as Clarke was laughing of Costia.
"I'm sorry, they come in all the time" Lexa apologized and kept cutting the ingredients for the chicken. Clarke let out a short chuckle. "At least they knock or ring at your doorbell" she shook her head with a smile. "My friends just pops in whenever they feel like it and take everything they want. Sometimes, I come home and find the whole group sitting in my living room"
Lexa laughed. She walked to Clarke and caressed her thighs. "You're really the mother of the group" Lexa smiled. "And I've seen how happy you make them, and how happy they make you" the brunette started. "As I have seen it, they mean indescribable much to you, and you would do endless everything for them" Lexa smiled carefully and looked deep in Clarke's eyes. "I have never seen someone care so much for everyone before. And you should know that I really admire that. And I care for you"
Clarke smiled and kissed Lexa on the lips. "I care for you too" she removed some of Lexa's hair from the face and fastened it behind her ears. "and you're right. I would do anything for them. They're my people, and I always put my people first" Clarke smiled at Lexa. "and now you're my people. And I will always put you first too" Clarke beamed at Lexa. "I know" Lexa whispered. "That's why I-" Lexa started. Clarke widened her eyes a little and slowly straightened her back.
