It was quite late at night, Raven was watching her favorite TV show "Fear the Walking Dead" at AMC, it was the fourth season and she was chewing her fingers as she watched the new episode. One of the main characters, who was her "platonic love", Alicia Clark, was battling with a group of zombies in an amusement park, like an incredible warrior, when a familiar sound caught her attention.

She sighed deeply and took her phone to see that she had a new message from an unregistered number. The text was short but she knew what it meant...

"M8"

- Shit! - Raven expressed irritatedly, while responding to the text

"CT"



Meanwhile, in another part of the city, Dr. Woods, facing all her fears, ignoring all the alarms in her head, dined cheerfully with the young blind teacher, Clarke Griffin, in a fine Italian restaurant called "Figaro".

The young art teacher, with pride and enthusiasm, had shown Lexa some of her personal works, and what she taught her little students at the school. The doctor was amazed by the beautiful and very real works of art. Fascinated by the fact that they had been made simply by touch, and imagination of facial features, she regretted that the talented artists could not see their own works, especially Clarke. It was very evident that the teacher had a huge talent with her hands.

Clarke explained how she managed to capture the sculptures she made, and Lexa ended up asking her to one day make a sculpture of her. The artist felt honored, but at the same time it caused some concern because the request sounded a bit egocentric, but she did not express it to her new benefactor.

Since Lexa said goodbye to Clarke at school until it was time to pick her up from her home, she was involved in a great internal battle with her demons, her walls raised and on high alert, her mind trying to persuade her that this had really happened, that Clarke was giving her a second chance. It was a very bad idea, and she would end up getting involved with the blind artist beyond the professional arrangement. But for the first time in many years of darkness, cold and isolation, she fought her fears, broke down some of her walls, and did not let that part of her mind stop her from meeting Clarke.

She concentrated on the fact that she had to offer an acceptable apology and to open up to the young artist, to regain her confidence and help her regain her sight. She might be able to separate her personal feelings from her professional duties, and she would be able to separate Clarke because she simply owed it to her.

Clarke was enthusiastic about the return of Lexa Woods, even though she still kept her guard up, and tried, she just tried not to get too carried away by the emotion that pulsed in her whole being. She recited to herself a mantra, that she had to be cautious, that Lexa would apologize and that she had a enormous possibility that maybe, just maybe, of regaining her vision.

Actually, Clarke felt that everything was a whirlwind of emotions inside her. She could not deny that Lexa made her feel incredible sensations, despite her bipolarity. the slightest touch of her hands, the tone of her voice, and her insistence on wanting to help her, simply enlightened her and made her smile like a teenager experiencing her first love.

But despite everything, she would not focus on what she felt for Lexa for now. Although in the back of her mind, she knew perfectly well that it was a lie. Her body had clearly indicated that Lexa made her feel emotions and feelings with only her presence, her voice, her scent, her soft touch. Even without being able to see her, Clarke could feel the energy between them, the sexual tension so strong, that she honestly wondered how the hell she was going to manage to resist something so strong?
