May we meet again (Clexa)

Chapter 22

I finally wrote something!!!!😝
This chapter probably has a few mistakes but please point them out and I'll tend to them.

<><><>

Lexa knew she had to say something, to make an attempt to fix what had been wronged, all the things she wished to say kept coming to her, but none in particular she could start with, everything was jumbled up in her brain and she just needed a pull out of her mind, a pull back to reality.

Clarke came back with two glasses of water and placed them on the coffee table, whatever happened tonight, she knew they had to talk, to lay everything on the table and fix what was broken, there was no hope for a future without a discussion of the past, no matter how hard it was for both.

After what felt like try hours of staring at each other with nothing and yet everything to say, Lexa sighed and spoke up.

"As you know, Titus saved me." Lexa lifted her head up high, her eyes locked on Clarke's. It felt like the right place to start, from the very beginning, before they turned her into a monster and sent her out to live amongst humans.

"I had just turned 10 when my parents died, it was hard but after that loss, you stop feeling," Lexa cleared her throat as she tried her best to recall her childhood, it had been great up until that night. The night Nia changed their whole lives around.

Nia had been a trusted family friend, Between the two sisters Lexa was her favorite and she always made sure to bring her sweets or new games to play with whenever she visited. All Lexa and Anya knew at ages 10 and 17 was their parents worked at a law firm and we're average people.

They had thought that until the night they both got recruited, Nia there to welcome them to the organization, promising she'd take good care of them. Lexa had swallowed that up and trusted Nia, until a few years into the organization she found the real truth about her parents, who they really were, what they did for a living and the world seemed to have slowed for her, she remembered it clear as day.

Luna had come across the information and instead of telling Anya, she went to Lexa. She was the sensible one, even though younger. and Luna knew Lexa would never act on impulse unlike her older sister, Anya.

"I stopped feeling," Lexa carried on, "Anya promised to take care of me best she can and she tried but between having a job and school and all the bills, she couldn't, no one could. We we're drowning in debts and no way out, we were told our parents had left us nothing, but truth was the organization kept the money from us,"

Clarke kept nodding for Lexa to go on, she'd thought her life was hard, but listening to Lexa's past made her understand the parts of Lexa that she kept hidden, all the things that hadn't made sense before finally clicked. Lexa never knew nothing but survival until she had met Clarke, until that day a picture of a blonde woman with blue eyes and a million dollar smile on her face made its way into her hands, and that's when life had finally made sense until they the day they came.

"Anya was about to give up when Nia, the woman who killed our parents showed up, back then we didn't know her involvement in their deaths, she took us in, gave us a home, gained our trust and eventually gave us the choice to continue our lavish life with her and the organization led by Thelonius Jaha or go back to starving."

Clarke hadn't thought it possible to love Lexa anymore than she already did, but it seemed the more Lexa opened up about who she really was, about what made her, her. All those horrible things Lexa kept hidden in fear that Clarke would love her less if she knew, just made her love her even more.

Lexa couldn't decipher Clarke's facial expressions. She just hoped when she was done, Clarke would still want her, would still love her, and all her broken parts.
