Delilah once told me they don't burry people when someone dies. The Primes make mind drives of the people who unfortunately are dead and gives the drives to the person they loved the most. She never told me what they do with the body, but they never conduct a funeral.

The weather is pretty rainy and foggy, but I still wanted to train my fighting skills. Octavia and I are fighting each other as a training, she is actually really good at using a sword and it's really challenging to beat her. I think we are friends, but I never really got the chance to get to know her because she hates me ever since I left Clarke and her people to die in Mount Weather.

I block her stroke with my own sword, so she doesn't hit me. The handle of my sword slips out of my hand as I try to do that. I can hear the voices in my brain panicking, because I didn't thought that was going to happen. I bend over pick up my sword, I can feel the blood pressure in my head, but I accidentally drop it again as I try to stand up too early. I can feel my arms getting triggered. Why can't I just pick up this sword normally. I finally grab the handle of my sword again and I move around to fight back at Octavia.

She pushes my down to the ground and lays her foot on my chest. 'I won.' Octavia says with a small smirk on her face. 'That was not fair, my sword had less grip on it, that's why I dropped it.' I say sarcastic, clearly making up a lie to not seem weak.

She pulls out a hand while she is smiling at me, it seems like she actually is being nice to me. I reach out my hand and she pulls me right up. 'Lexa, I know I haven't really been talking to you, but maybe we could be friends. Do you want to hang around with me in my room, get to know each other?' Octavia offers me. 'Wow, I actually would really love to, but Clarke really needs me now, she is very upset and I should probably go check on her.' I respond. 'Oh yeah, I totally understand. I will see you around!' She walks off and I pick up my sword and run towards our dorm while it starts to pour.

Once I am inside I start walking again. It is weirdly silent in our hallway, we share it with all the Skypeople who got woken up out of Cryosleep. So it is more likely to hear some noises hear and there.

I lay my hand on the doorknob, I hear Clarke crying. And once again, it breaks my heart into a million pieces. I clear my throat and slowly open the door in case she's going to tell me I can't come in yet. But I didn't hear Clarke say anything, so I push the door open.

Clarke is sitting on the edge of the bed, she holds a shirt that belonged to her mother right next to her face. I don't think she noticed me coming in. The second I heard her crying my mood changed, from being excited that Octavia actually wants to be friends with me. Clarke doesn't deserve this and I just don't know how to make her feel better.

I am still standing in the doorway waiting for Clarke to notice me. 'Clarke?' I say quietly with a doubtful voice. She turns around but I think I scared her a little bit, she turns her back at me again while wiping her tears off. I let my sword and my gear drop on the floor and I quickly walk towards Clarke to comfort her.

'Have you been in our room all day, Clarke?' I ask her softly. She nods her head and takes a deep breath right after. I pull her into a hug and hold her, to make her feel safe. 'Do you trust me, babe?' I ask while still holding her. 'Mhm' I hear in my right ear.

I stand up and pull my hand out so I can hold hers. 'I want to take you somewhere.' She lifts up her hand and puts it in mine. We walk through the hallway, I am trying to hype her up. But she is still a bit upset. I turn around while still holding her hand. 'Please Clarke you need to come with me.' I say while I try to make her walk faster. A small smile appears on her face and she starts running after me.

We run out our dorm and it is pouring really hard. I want to take her outside to a landscape with pretty orange flowers and pure green grass. 'Where are you taking me, Lexa. It is raining I don't want my hair to get wet!'
'Come on, Clarke you can wash your hair later.'
She doesn't hesitate anymore, and she runs after me while the smile on her face is getting bigger and bigger.

We run through the rain, our laughs ultrasounds away in the empty air. I stop at this one place on top of a small hill, where we can still see Sanctum. 'Isn't it pretty?' I ask her looking at her. 'It is truly beautiful, babe.' She says while looking at the landscape next to us. 'Just like you are, Clarke.' She turns her head back to me again and looks right into my eyes. I put my hands in her neck and she moves her head to mine, connecting our lips together.

We are still standing in the rain, everything is soaking wet. But feeling Clarke makes me forget everything that's happening. I hope she feels the same way. She pushes my head away, trying to look at my face. She is laughing, but I really think because she is happy, not because something is funny. I smile back at her, but she suddenly hooks her foot behind my leg and I loose balance.

I am falling right on my back, but with Clarke on top of me. I start to laugh, I think I never enjoyed life more than now, with Clarke. Although a lot of stuff is happening right now. I am still laughing, but Clarke's face gets closer to mine. And she starts to kiss me again. The small kiss escalated in a real make out. In a random landscape on a planet I never knew existed. It feels so good to hold her. 'Lets do it, right here.' Clarke says, she pulls her head away for one second and she kisses me again right after. I push her away from me. 'Babe, wha- what?' I respond with a frown on my face. 'You heard me, lets do it right now.'
