A few years later..
Clarke looked at the man sitting across from her. It had been a few yeasr after they were rescued from the Island. Some days were hard, others weren't. All of them had kept contact, and grew closer as time passed. Clarke had a hard time dealing with losing her leg. She didn't blame Lexa for it, but she did need some time to figure things out.
''Miss. Shall I repeat my question?'' the man asked interrupting Clarkes thoughts.
Clarke looked up and stared at her psychologist ''Yes, please. Sorry I was distracted'' Clarke said apologizing.
''No worries, Miss. Griffin. What were you thinking about?'' the man asked.
Clarke looked at the man before answering ''I don't know..'' she mumbled ''Just stuff..you know?''
''What kind of stuff do you mean?'' He asked persistant.
''I don't know. Just life..I guess'' Clarke said, whilst taking a deep breath. ''I've been thinking about Lexa a lot lately. I miss her in my life. I got so attached to her, that I still don't know how to figure things out without her..'' Clarke tried to hold back her tears.
''Where's Lexa now?'' the man asked surprised, trying to distract Clarke a bit.
''She went back to Afghanistan..'' Clarke said while looking down.
…
A few years ago..
''I need you to tell me what you want, Clarke'' Lexa said, with a hurt tone in her voice.
Clarke shook her head while staring at the brunette ''I don't know what I want Lexa. It's too much. I can't take this right now. I think you should go'' Clarke scoffed.
''Are you kidding me?'' Lexa asked in disbelieve. ''After everything we've been through..you're giving up now..?
Clarke nodded ''I guess I am. I need you to leave, Lexa'' Clarke said.
Lexa turned around to grab her bags without saying another word. She walked to the door but turned around to face Clarke one more time. Tears were streaming down her face while she tried to figure out what to say ''I guess my love wasn't enough after all..'' Lexa turned around and left Clarke behind.
Clarke stared at the figure dissappearing into the night ''goodbye my love'' she whispered.
…
Present day..
''It's okay mrs. Griffin. Take your time'' the man said reassuring.
''I'm so sorry'' Clarke said while crying. She looked back at all those moment she had ruined.
''She asked me what I wanted one day. I was so confused at that moment that I told her to go. The last thing she told me was that she thought her love wasn't enough after all. Everyone always says that love is enough. But it wasn't. Not when your soul has been shattered'' Clarke explained between her tears.
''You've been through way too much, Clarke. It's okay not to know what you want. Was that the last thing you heard from her?'' the man asked.
Clarke nodded ''Yeah''.
''Do you know if she returned from Afghanistan?'' The man asked.
Clarke stared at the ground before nodding ''Yes, I saw her..''
''Where?'' the man asked surprised.
''Last week, in the supermarket. She didn't look the same at all, but I could never forget those bright green eyes even if I wanted to. She didn't see me though. Or atleast I think'' Clarke admitted.
''Why don't you give her a call?'' the man asked.
…
A few weeks later..
Clarke walked back the same way as usual. She went through the centre to take the bus home. Clarke stopped to get a coffee in a nearby restaurant when she got caught of guard by someone familiar. Clarke was frozen in her place, when she realised who it was.
''Clarke?'' The person asked surprised.
Clarke turned around to face the person ''Lexa'' she stated before staring at the ground.
Lexa smiled at Clarke ''It's been way to long!'' she said excited.
''Yeah..'' Clarke mumbled.
''How are you doing, Clarke?'' Lexa asked politely.
Clarke didn't want to admit that she had missed Lexa. So she tried to be as casual as she could be ''Good. Things have gotten better'' she said with a smile ''How about you?''
''Well, that's a long story. I'm sorry I never contacted you'' Lexa said apologetic.
''You didn't have to. I didn't deserve that, you know? I was such a crapy person towards you. I was so stuck in what I lost, that I didn't know what I still had'' Clarke blurred out.
''You deserve the best, Clarke. We've all been through a lot. Everyone deals with it differently. But anyway, I want to ask you something'' Lexa said with a smile.
''Go ahead'' Clarke said with a smile.
''Wanna grab something to eat?'' Lexa said teasingly.
Clarke nodded ''Yeah, I would love to!''
''Well, let's go then'' Lexa said with a grin before walking out of the restaurant.
In this moment they both knew things would be okay. Surely they had to figure a lot out together, but they knew they would be fine as long as they had each other, just like on the Island.
THE END.
