Back at Arkadia People had started dying from A.R.S. it was devastating Lunas people. She was sitting there with Nyco and her daughter. Abby was watching standing next to Her as she help her daughter in her arms and was trying her hardest not to weep.

Luna was talking in her daughters ear and playing with her hair "feel the waves love. You'll feel them again soon-" she says choking back tears. Her daughters breaths were raspy and her eyes were closed. A few moments pass and the room goes quiet. Luna sits there for a moment and then breaks out into a sob, she holds her daughter close to her chest and cries tucking her face into her head. Nyco hugs Luna and her daughter tightly rubbing her back gently and kisses her head. "I'm so sorry" is all he can get out.

Abby stands there and looks at Luna. Shes getting better. Why was she getting better but everyone else died? She keeps that thought on her mind as Raven notices also. Her blood they both think and look at each other. The two excuse themselves from the room and into the hall.

"Are we thinking the same thing right now?" Raven Asks

"It's the blood that helped her reject the radiation."

"Yes!" Raven says "we need to figure out how to make night blood, and fast." she states

Abby agrees "we ask her in the morning. She has just gone through one of the hardest things a mother can go through."

Raven nods and agrees. "Of course. And we ask Lexa if she can come with us. To Beccas island."

Abby nods "yes but we can ask her first then maybe Lexa can have a talk with Luna."

Raven nods again and then leaves to find Lexa. she does and gets her alone "Lexa. we need to take you to Beccas island."

"Why? Lexa asks

"Abby and I think we found a way to make night blood. And it saves you from radiation but we need help to make it by taking yours and Lunas" she says

Lexa stands there and nods "okay." she thinks "if it helps my people I will do it." she says

Raven smiles "thank her and can you maybe talk to Luna for us?"

Lexa sighs and looks down "ill try but there are no guarantees."

Raven nods "of course that's fine just try, we need all the help we can get." she says then walks off to keep working on the ship and make plans for when she is gone at Beccas island.

Lexa walks up to Luna and takes a seat next to her. Luna was sitting next to a closed back and looking at the floor.

"Luna-"

"What-" she says not looking up or at Lexa whatsoever.

"We have a way to save more people so they dont have to suffer as she did."

"Save it." she now looks up and at Lexa "why should I? You dont know the pain I went through."

Lexa sits there "you're right. I dont but I used to." she takes Lunas hand "Costia, you remember her?" she asks.

Luna nods

Lexa takes in a deep breath "we were together, like, Partners together until you know. She died and I cried every night for her. That's when I decided to never show feelings again. I thought the former commanders were all right. Then Clarke came along years later and all those feelings came back, the good ones but for her, I thought I could hide. I ended up kissing her like an idiot but I dont regret it."

Luna has wide eyes at this point as she listens to Lexa

"Truth is. Yes, I feel the same as I did with Costia if not more but I dont know what this feeling is I dont have a word for it. Though I cried how you did when she died, and nobody wants to go through this so help others not have to." Lexa says

Luna smiles a little and then "Lexa, you Love Clarke, you are in love with Wanheda." she says then adds "yes ill help with the blood."

Lexa sits there and thinks to herself. She can't be in love. The commander in love? Never heard of that before. She things. She speaks "Okay we need to go to Beccas Island. We leave tomorrow morning. We go with Abby and Raven as well as some guards and Jackson."

Luna nods "I'm glad to help so people dont have to feel what I feel"

"We bare it so they dont have to." Lexa says "it's something Clarke says." she adds then gets up "come on you need some rest it's a long boat ride."

Luna gets up then looks at the bag one last time and frowns then follows Lexa to a room that has two beds in it.

Lexa lays down in one bed and Luna lays down in the other. "Good night Luna"

"Good night Commander"

"Please, call me Lexa." she says as she closes her eyes to sleep.

Luna does the same and falls asleep not long after, exhausted from all the crying she had done that day.

Clarke gets back early that morning and walks into the ark. She was going to get some rest before needing to work again. She walks around and sees Lexa in a room with Luna. she quietly gets in bed with Lexa and lays her head on Lexas Chest.

Lexa feels Clarke lay down and wraps her arms around her torso bringing her as close as she can. "I need to Leave soon to help raven with something. I'm sorry" she says

"Shush lets just have this" Clarke says

Lexa smiles and Luna watches having woken when Clarke walked in. Luna smiles and turns over.

Clarke looks up at Lexa and kisses her softly and Lexa does the same. Clarke falls asleep soon after and so does Lexa.

Raven walked in quietly and saw the two. She decided to let them be for a bit longer so the two lay there and cuddle till later the next morning.
