Life before surviving

Chapter 3

FEELING FREE-

Of course Lexa woke up before Clarke did, she wanted to stay and make sure Clarke was okay when she woke up, but Indra had found her and told her she needed to discuss the plans for polis.
Everything about Lexas body hurt, this would usually happen after an intense battle. She would train of course but her adrenaline would kick in and she would push herself more and be sore. Not to mention the injuries, she couldn't breathe because of her ribs and putting on armor didn't help that situation.  Indra was waiting for her outside Clarkes door with Octavia.

"Will she be coming to polis with us?" Indra asked clearly talking about Clarke

"Yes, the moment she feels better we will go." Lexa answered

"But commander we had plans to leave at sundown tonight." Indra stated

"We can't have Clarke traveling to polis alone. If the ice nation sees where she's headed they'll kill her." Lexa was upset now

"yes commander. Titus is here and would like to discuss some things, he's in your tent."

Lexa sighed firmly and started off to her tent.

Clarke woke up in pain, her side hurt the worst, along with her head. She reached over to the side of the bed hoping there would be a sleepy lexa there to nurse her. But she wasn't there. Of course she wasn't she's heda, her people come first, Clarke knew that.
Clarke thought about her people and how so many of them were wounded right beside her in battle. It worried her that some of her closest friends could be worse than she is. She hesitantly sat up, her legs shook as she swung them over the bed. She let out a long sigh, then her mother walked in.

"Clarke, honey, what're you doing?" Her mother squealed

"I need to check on my friends." Clarke said out of breath

Abby smiled at Clarke and shook her head "let me get you a wheelchair I don't want you ripping those stitches."
Abby came back a moment later with a wheelchair and Bellamy.

"Need a ride princess?" Bellamy smirked at Clarke.

Clarke was so filled with joy that one of her closest friends was okay. "I was so worried about you!" Clarke stood and hugged him.

"Careful Clarke!" Her mother exclaimed "Bellamys gonna take you to see everyone and then right back in here, okay?"

"Yes ma'am." Bellamy said, "how about we wonder a little outside too?" Bellamy said in Clarkes ear, Clarke laughed and nodded.

Bellamy pushed her through the hospital and all of her friends were okay. Jasper and maya came and greeted Clarke and said how they missed her.
They had passed by almost all of the grounder tents with water and food if wanted, except the commanders. Bellamy pushed Clarke to the door but the guards stopped them.

"State your business." A guard said in a low tone

"I have some food for the commander." Clarke answered strongly, even though she was injured she still was in charge.

"Let them enter." Lexas voice said from behind the tent flaps. "Clarke?" Lexa asked surprised "you're not supposed to be out of bed."

"I didn't like it in there without you." Clarke clearly feeling flirtatious. "Plus it's such a beautiful day full of freedom...couldn't miss it."

Lexa smiles at Clarke. Like an actual person, with a genuine smile. Lexa was letting down her guard for Clark.

"Will you excuse us Titus?" Lexa said behind her shoulder, Titus nodded and left. Leaving Clarke and Lexa alone.

"Are you feeling any better?" Lexa asked kneeling to clarkes level.

"No, not really but it feels good in the sun. What about you? huh? you shouldn't be up walking around?"

"But I am heda. I must lead my people and plan for the trip back to polis." Lexa told Clarke

"Oh heda." Clarke took Lexas hand into her own, Lexa could feel her heart start to race "maybe someday we'll owe nothin more to our people." Clarke smiled at her. Lexa wanted to kiss her right there, when Clarke was smiling and holding her hand she wanted to kiss her. She didn't. But she wanted to, Clarke could tell.
So Clarke was the one who leaned forward. Clarke took the action. She brought Lexa closer to her, Lexa stumbled over her own feet of corse. One hand rested on the back of Lexas neck and she kissed her. Lexas hands stayed at Clarkes waist not wanting to push boundaries, but Clarkes moved from her waist, to her jaw, to her shoulders. Until Lexa broke the kiss, resting her forehead against Clarkes, trying to hide the biggest smile.

"Clarke?" Lexa whispered

"Lexa?" Clarke copied

"I would like to ask you to be in relations with me."

"What?" Clarke laughed

"I would like for you and me to be in relation."

"Lexa." Clarke purred "are you asking me to be your girlfriend?"

Lexa looked her in the eye "if that's what it is then yes that's what I'm asking."

"Finally," Clarke laughed "I thought I wasn't flirting enough."
