My Heart (Was Right About You)

Chapter 2: Together

"God, I'm pretty sure even Jack and Rose from the Titanic didn't have such a time-consuming goodbye." Raven grumbled from her position against the wall as she watched Clarke and Lexa embrace each other for what seemed like the billionth time.

"I think it's sweet." Jake chimed in, straightening his collar. "I mean, I am dragging Lexa away."

"For like...half a day." Raven snorted.

"Young love is like that." Jake shrugged. "I'm surprised you and Anya aren't attached at the hip, yet."

"We have lives." Raven drawled, wearing a look of faux boredom.

"Is that why you're in the middle of my daughter's apartment, doodling with her art supplies?" Jake quipped with a smile.

Raven feigned a look of hurt. "You used to be cool, Papa G."

"I'm getting old." Jake shrugged with a wink.

Meanwhile, Clarke and Lexa seemed keen to reenact their version of the Titanic's farewell scene. "Don't forget to feed Fish." Lexa reminded while Clarke straightened her tie, as was their morning ritual. "And yourself. Make sure to eat something, Clarke."

"I already ate." Clarke smirked, breaking out into a full blown grin when Lexa turned beet red, relieved to see that no one had heard.

"Baby." Clarke murmured, catching Lexa's glance.

"Hmm?" Lexa hummed, fingers fiddling with the hem of Clarke's shirt.

"Can you please relax? It's my dad. Not the IRS." Clarke smirked. "No one's going to audit you."

"Clarke." Lexa breathed. "He is the most important person to impress, aside from you. He gave me the loans, he gave me half of my clients...he's the father of the love of my life, my bride to be..." Lexa trailed off when Clarke gave her a kiss, which was absolutely ruined by a giddy smile.

"Lexa. You're freaking out over the wrong guy. My dad's greatest threat to you is his godawful sense of humor." Clarke scoffed. "Watch this." Clarke, still holding Lexa by the lapels of her jacket, turned to her father, calling out, "Okay, Dad, I'll call you later!"

Jake grinned. "Don't call me later, call me dad."

Raven made a face at the dad joke, while Clarke rolled her eyes, turning back to Lexa, who wore a sheepish smile.

"See? Nothing my Commander needs to worry about." Clarke murmured, leaning up for a kiss. "I love you."

Lexa hummed quietly into her lips, shy about kissing in front of Clarke's father, even though they were to be married soon.

Clarke adored that.

"I love you too." Lexa pressed a quick kiss to Clarke's forehead, causing Jake to smile as he grabbed an umbrella by the door.

"Bye kiddo." Jake ruffled Clarke's hair, causing her to grimace.

"Don't worry, sexy Lexy ." Raven smirked, winking at Lexa, who shuffled uncomfortably at the old nickname Clarke had given her, once upon a time. "I'll hold down the fort until you get back."

Lexa glanced at Clarke uneasily.

Clarke rolled her eyes, shooting a glare at Raven. She ushered Lexa and Jake out the door, murmuring, "Lex, everything is fine, we're all relaxing here, go."

As soon as Lexa was clear of the slam radius, Clarke shut the door, whirling around on Raven. "You little shit!" She snapped.

Raven cocked a brow. "That time of the month?"
