============== Lexa Heda =================

Lexa's eyes widened at the state of pandemonium outside her office building. Herds of people were piling out of the entrance in great panic. Her feet immediately sprang to life shoving people out of the away and immediately, stormed into the entrance when she felt a strong grasp on her arm.

"You can't go up there!" those brown eyes of the security guard were alarming but she pulled her arm away.

"What's going on?" He pulled her to the side and away from the growing crowd. All sorts of things were popping inside her head.

Fire? Accident? Emergency drill? Somebody finally opened that large secret vault at the 9th floor and found out it's a secret weapon to destroy the city? What? What is going?

"Hostage," the security guard named Earl said in a flat line.

"Host-... Hostage?! What? Where? Who?" her eyes suddenly came into a sharp focus and watched the stampede of her yelling colleagues.

"Marketing Department," her head snapped at him, her body turned cold as she bolted into the entrance - pushing, shoving and shouting at people to get out of the way.

Lexa made quick detour to the fire escape where she could hear faint shouting and weeping gravitating from upstairs. Surprisingly enough, it gave her more strength to forge 11 storeys up. The brunette gripped the railing into her palm and hoisted herself up three steps at a time.

"UGH!" she shoved her hair back and grunted angrily when she felt herself slowing down in pace, "come on!" Inhaling sharply, she gritted her teeth at the last 3 flights of stairs.

Abruptly, her feet stopped. Her throat went dry when her eyes found the emergency door of the 11th floor. A gun had fired and loud cries penetrated her ears. "No..." she yanked open the door and sprinted towards the marketing department.

"SHOW HER TO ME!!!"

A loud threatening chuckle resounded the office and when Lexa finally reached her destination she can't believe who the hostage taker was.

=========== Clarke Griffin ================

"So, what is it like kissing Ms Eye candy? Hmm?"

Clarke have to bite her lips to stop herself from giggling like a teenager. She hummed, putting down her fork and held the phone closer to her ear.

"Soft," she sighed, "sweet. Oh God... I can't believe we kissed, O! It's- It's like a dream. No, better than a dream! Like I'm in heaven! She's like an angel that swept me off my feet," she grinned widely feeling her cheeks about to tear apart from her blissful thoughts.

"Gosh, Griffin you're such a sap!" Octavia was giggling too from the other line.

"But seriously, Octavia. I really think that things finally changed for the better," a smile touched her lips leading her to think of all the butterfly moments that she had with Lexa.

"I'm happy for you, Clarke."

"Me too."

============== Lexa Heda ==============

"Come out, Come out. Where ever you are!"

That sickening voice made her chest raced and her hands shaking but that didn't stopped her from standing at the entrance of the office and face the captor.

"I'm right here!" she shouted attracting those red eyes that soon landed hers. Her heart was beating loudly in her ears. Her throat was even more drier and huskier that she even took the time to clear her throat. Lexa's attention was on that man who was grinning at her from ear to ear. To that man who was holding a gun that he was cradling on his chest. To that man's bloody hands and shirt. To that man who was chuckling and yet, crying at the same time as he spoke his next words.
