Clark

I felt my head spinning as I woke up from my slumber. I heard voices around me and I gaze upon this familiar room. "again.." i defeatedly said in whisper. The doctors immediately tend to me as they saw me awake. I saw one familiar face who smiled at me. "Nyoko.." i whispered. "hello highness finally you're awake.." he said softly. "how long was I.." i coughed and felt my mouth gone dry. He immediately gave me water. Other doctors checked on the monitors if everything is okay. "you're asleep for just a day your highness.. But Lady Octavia was really worried about you.. I heard your parents will come here to see you" he said. "so they knew about this.." i said weakly. "words spread easily your highness.." He said then smiled warmly. I heavily sighed then closed my eyes. I feel the darkness drawing me back again. "rest well your majesty" i heard Nyoko said before my body shut everything down.

"why didn't you tell us Octavia?!? It's our right to know what was going on with my daughter.." Mother? I heard her voice. "I'm sorry Abby.. Clark wanted to keep it a secret.." Octavia said helplessly. "ohhh my poor baby.." i heard my mother broke down in tears, I felt the side of my bed moved and felt soft kisses on my forehead. I tried to open my eyes but I was too weak to even command my body. Sleep draw me back again.

7 years of age

I was walking on the sand when wind blew my hat, I ran after it but someone already caught it for me. Her long brunette hair was flowing softly with the wind, as I moved closer I almost gasp at the beauty standing before me, her forest green eyes looked at me cautiously. I gave her a smile and she gasp. "Thank you for helping me getting my hat back.." i said while looking at her and my hat back and forth. "oh.. Sorry.. Here." She said while extending her hand for me to take the hat. I accepted it politely then bowed to her. "where you from?" she asked. "Arkadia.. and my name is Clark.. What's yours?" i asked. "Lexa.." she respond shortly. "well nice to meet you Lexa.." i said while giving her a warm smile and extending my hand for her to take. She hesitate at first but later on her hand touches mine. I gasp as her touch send some electric feeling towards my chest i look at her in shock and it seems she felt it too. I began to giggle while she remained looking at me intently. I blushed due to the intensity of her gaze then awkward silence envelope us. "Princess!!!!" i heard my nannies called me. "oh shit I have to go.." i said and ran in haste "nice to meet you Lexa! Hope to see you soon!!" i said while running and i abruptly stopped when she smiled timidly. I was stunned to see her smile, it was beautiful.. She's beautiful.. And then right there I fell in love with green eyed girl.

It was a memory.. The first time i saw Lexa when we were still 7 years old. I found out that she was the heir of the Trikru kingdom when our parents announced that we will marry each other soon. I didn't mind for she already caught my attention.. She's beyond perfect. In order to uphold the marriage we tend to visit the Trikru Kingdom every year. It was hard to have a conversation with her for she was just so silent. I met Anya later on she was older than us for about 3 years, she was the same with Lexa at first so reserved but later on she opened up and we became close. She was friends with Luna that's why i was close with heir of Folkru Kingdom as well. So whenever Lexa is busy with her trainings I tend to hangout with them. Lexa was very distant to me even if she accepted our marriage it seemed she still doesn't like me as me till..

12 years of age

"Anya... I want to go to the waterfalls please take me there.." i whined as I followed her around. It was that time of the year again where I should stay in the Trikru Kingdom for a week. "i promise to take you there when my work is done okay? As for now just stay in your Chambers Luna and I will fetch you later on.." Anya said. I heavily sighed and frowned "fine" I said then walked away. "Clark I promise okay.."she said I just waved at her while continued walking. They are so busy recently.. They are no fun anymore. I huffed in annoyance then banged my door. "what's wrong Clark? " Octavia said my best friend who would be my advicer soon. "Anya and Luna are busy.." i said while pouting. Then she laughed "ofcourse they are.. Luna is a leader and Anya is the right hand of Lexa.." she said explaining. "but I'm a leader too.. -" "but you are not a warrior princess.." she interjected. I heavily sighed and crashed my body on the soft bed. "Then what am I supposed to do now? I really wanted to go to the waterfalls.."i said. I heard her say hmmm. When an idea popped in my head. I turned to her and smiled sweetly." oh no... I would never-"... minutes later....  " bring you to the waterfalls... "she said in defeat. I giggled and ran towards the falls. I removed my shoes and started to deep my feet on the cold water." common Octavia!" i called her. She sighed in defeat and still looked around." Clark remember we're not allowed to stay here for long okay? Your parents will have my head.." Octavia said worriedly. "yeah yeahhh... You are such a worrier..-" then the bush suddenly moved suspiciously. Octavia signalled me to keep Quiet. She moved silently in front of me and in protective stance. She pulled out her gun and readied for any attacker."well...well.. What do we have here..." a creepy voice said then slowly appeared in the darkness. "bandits.." i gasp then stood up. "don't come any closer!!!" Octavia commanded as she aimed her weapon on him.. Then he sinisterly laughed then the laughed grew as people started to emerge in the forest. They were atleast 6 of them encircling us. Octavia still remained in her stance. "get behind me." She commanded and I complied. "looks like we have a treasure here in front of us boys.. The Arkadian heir.. Get her" the Leader commanded. Octavia began to rain bullets as they stepped closer towards us but they were good at avoiding them and they were too many to handle. We moved back till I almost fell in the cold water. The leader laughed "honestly are you that stupid for not bringing guards with you in this area?.. This could be my lucky day.." he said. Then they began to attack, I closed my eyes when suddenly sword slashing was heard. I immediately opened my eyes and saw Lexa fighting the bandits like they were just nothing. She skillfully turned her double sword, I saw splashing of blood, Octavia immediately helped Lexa and I just stood there shocked of the scene. When one bandit jumped in front of me "come here!" he said with gritted teeth but before he could grab me his hands was chopped off agonizing scream was heard, I felt someone covered my eyes, I knew it was Lexa based on her scent and soft hands.. then slashing of sword was heard and the scream ended. I gasp when I heard nothing but the splashing of the water. She removed her hands and i slowly opened my eyes i gasp in horror at the scene before me. Blood was everywhere.. Disembodied bodies scattered on the green grass.. I saw Octavia bowed while looking at my back then I turned to her and gasp to see that forest green eyes once again. "Lexa.." i whispered. I could see Anger passing through her eyes. "what were you doing in the forest unguarded?" she said in gritted teeth. "I.. I wanted.."i struggled to explain but she cut me off. "Octavia you should know better than this!" she said angrily at Octavia. "I'm sorry your majesty it won't ever happen again." Octavia said pleading. "no.. It wasn't her fault.. Its mine" i interjected defending Octavia. "i pushed her into going here.. It wasn't her fault." she stared at me with that green pools of her making me nervous like hell. "still she should have said no..you are her responsibility.. If something happened to you then I'll have her head for that" she said coldly that brought me shiver down my spine. She whistled then suddenly soldiers appeared "Clean up this mess!" she commanded then they immediately complied. She grabbed my arm then started to pull me away "w-wait..-" i protested but she cut me off. "i honestly don't want to hear excuses now Clark.." she said with her deadly tone. I shut my mouth knowing how angry she looked. When we got to the palace my mom solded me nonstop. Me and Octavia just looked down and not meeting their angry eyes. Lexa just silently look at the scene before her while leaning on the wall. "you could have been killed!!!" my mom said angrily. "I'm sorry I promise I will not run off like that again. Please don't punish Octavia for this I was the one who pushed her into this mess." i begged my mother and father. But we end up being punished together instead. I heavily sighed as I followed Lexa wherever she may go. My punishment is to be with her at all times in order for me to learn from her. Like what mother said. Since then we've been together almost 24/7 at first she would just ignore my presence but later on due to my stubborness she end up talking to me little by little. I was very talkative before and not to mention clumsy. Due to the time we spend it drew us closer and closer each day. I discovered new things about her that even though she maintained a facade that she's cold and heartless, she turned out to be sweet, shy, loving and caring.. Complete opposite. People noticed the change between us two and our parents loved that change.

Present day

I gasp for air and immediately sat up. I was disoriented as I scanned the room. Then familiar green eyes stared at me and met my blues. "Lexa.."
