Clarke was in Polis since a week and a half and she was feeling better at Lexa's sides. Even though being romantically involved with the Commander has its disadvantages, it has its advantages too. By trusting the leader of the Sky people, Lexa had influenced a lot her people into respecting her. If someone was worth enough to be trusted by the Commander, her people must have too.

They were in bed, awaken since hours but appreciating this rare moment of intimacy. Some of Lexa's guard suspected something between the two leaders and she didn't deny it. The young ladies, of course, talked about letting some important Trikru members about the nature of their relationship. Of course, Indra knew it since the beginning and she was not very happy about it – she told Lexa once that she was disapproving her choices, but she'd follow her everywhere and will always guide her if needed.

"Clarke, you are lost in your thoughts." Lexa said, kissing slowly the blonde's girl cleavage. It always surprised to feel her so tender, because she was known from the sky people to be both ruthless and heartless. But she wasn't like that, the Commander was only just a mask to protect herself from showing others her distress and pain. She had responsibilities as the leader of her people, showing weakness could only affect her reputation. "You can talk to me." She said, insisting so Clarke could tell her what was on her mind.

"I'm glad this alliance is still standing between our people. It made us strong." She looked at her and smiled, kissing her nose.

"Is this the kind of thoughts crossing your mind after making love?" Lexa wrapped Clarke into her arms and pulled their bodies closer. "I would have hope something less… serious."

"Are you offended, Lexa?" She made a grin and chuckled a little. "Sometimes I forget you're just my age." It was said with a bit of humour.

Clarke saw the young leader join her lips into a small pout. The sky girl couldn't believe the Commander was pouting. "I would have loved to hear you telling me how I made you feel, instead." Lexa's cold fingers travelled from Clarke's waist to her lap, and then to her breast. Both were fully naked into the Commander's tent, where no one would even dare interrupt them.

The young blonde bit her lower lip, letting her hands slip into Lexa's unbraided hair. "You always make me feel great, you know that." She sighed and continued. "Actually, I was thinking of going in Camp Jaha. I missed my mom and seeing my friends and she made me want to see them again. And I haven't seen who I managed to save." She looked at Lexa's beautiful green eyes. "I need to do this for myself."

"I understand. I could send my warriors with you and perhaps join your journey." She added, continuing to play with Clarke's body.

"I would love to have your company, Lexa… but I don't think it'll be a good idea to come with me. I should see how things are going back there, how people feel towards grounders." She kissed slowly the girl's lips. "They could see you as a threat and I don't want you ending getting hurt."

"You are wise, Clarke of the Sky people. But my warriors are well trained and will protect me, even if they have to give their life to do so."

"Hey, shht." She cupped Lexa's face into her hands. "You have a lot of work on your hands here and the Commander should be seen amongst her people, not mine. You have duties to attend."

"How can a sky person could be so stubborn?" The Commander complained, caressing the blonde's arms.

"I have been trapped in space for all my life. My own mother betrayed her husband, my father… and I have been locked up for a crime I haven't committed. The minute I stepped on this Earth, I changed. I don't fear taking my own decisions, because I know consequences will be have changed too." She took a long breath and looked at the top of the tent. "And I no longer live by my people's stupid rules."

Lexa got out of the bed and crouched, searching for her clothes, while Clarke was looking at her beautiful body. The Commander was in a great shape, but there was one thing the sky girl didn't like: her scars. She had them all over her body and the idea that someone had to make them to her was making her crazy. She once told her about how she was feeling about her scars and Lexa replied that most of them were made while she was training with Anya. The warrior was rough on her, yet Lexa missed her more than anything. She confessed to Clarke that she was still feeling her presence sometimes – guiding her to make the right choices for her people. Anya was a great warrior and Lexa loved her like sister.

"Would you like to leave for Camp Jaha today?" The grounder said, putting her trousers and her t-shirt on her body. Clarke was almost sad she wouldn't have the best view of Polis until they'll get back into this tent.

"Not today, perhaps tomorrow or the day after." She rolled to the side of the bed and stand up. "I want to stay with you, just a little longer. I know they miss me, but it can wait."

"You don't need to make me a priority before your own people, Clarke." Lexa said, grabbing her hand and lacing their fingers together.

"That's not really what I'm doing, Lexa. I decide to leave when I am ready to and that is after I enjoyed a good night of sleep with you." She smiled. "And I said sleep, not sex. I don't want to get there exhausted because you kept me up awake three nights in a row."

"Then you shall stop teasing me…" Lexa said with a smirk on her lips. This girl was truly amazing and Clarke wished she had met her before everything happened with their territory war and fight against Mount Weather.

"Just the sound of me snoring would turn you on, you should learn to keep it in your pants sometimes… Commander." The blonde replied, doing the same facial expression than her lover's.

"I'm not like –"

"Yes, you are very much like that." She kissed her lover's lips and put her shirt on. "I fear we will never have a complete night of sleep before years. But hey, I'm not really complaining about it."
