When Earth Meets The Sky ( The 100 )

Happy Birthday Ryan

It was undeniably my bestest birthday. All were very happy and enjoying. There was a huge cake that could feed everyone. Grounders were looking at it with amusement. After I cut it and everyone were offered the cake, the grounders were still hesitant. I took a piece and went to feed it to Lexa. I offered her to eat from my hand. She was surprised. I told her that birthday person usually feeds others and vice versa. She accepts my cake. And surprisingly when she was offered cake by Octavia, she came to feed me. I could sense lots of eyes on us.

Our night was a joyous one. And I am pretty sure, I saw Octavia flirting with a grounder warrior. I need to look into the matter. And it was time for presents.

Mom and dad gifted me a beautiful suit. Raven and Monti made a laptop for me. Bellamy and Octavia gave me boots. Gustus, Indra, Anya and Costia gifted me a full armour set. Teens gifted me a chess board which is made of marbles. And Lexa gifted me a canvas with brushes designed with beautiful stones. Also I got a beautiful horse from her. It is pure black. She also revealed a statue of me which is placed in TonDC. I was speechless. She told me it was an honour for me from people of Trikuru.

After all those emotional gifts, Bellamy started to play music. It was time to dance. As usual grounders tried to skip. But that time, we didn't allow. Bellamy asked Costia for dance. And she agreed. Octavia was dancing with the grounder she was flirting with before. I slowly moved to Lexa. I don't know what was in my eyes or what was in her eyes, I couldn't ask yet she got up and gave her hand. With storm in my heart, I took it.

When we were going for the dance, I didn't remember about anyone. I showed her how to dance. She is a quick learner. Slowly she started to do as I showed. When I put my hand in her waist, she was stiff for a moment. But I could sense her becoming relaxed. And we started to grace the floor. We didn't know for how long. We came to reality when the music was off. We looked around us and could see everyone staring at us.

I looked at my parents, my dad was smiling, mom had a tensed look but gave me a smile that ensured me no matter what happens, she would support me. I looked at my friends. They were shocked but beaming. I looked at Anya. Her face was saying as you want. I looked at Costia. She was giving a I knew it look. Indra and Gustus had looks that were like if you hurt her you are dead. At last I look at Lexa.

Lexa, the mighty commander of 12 clans, a commander whose bravery is known by all, the beloved heda of her people, I dared to look at her. I couldn't make my mouth talk, I tried and tried but couldn't talk. But she spoke. Not to me.
