Clarke, Raven and Bellamy were all sitting around a campfire basking in the silence of the woods around them. The battle at the mountain had been won and finally the people were living in peace once the coalition was made. The sky people were now apart of the tree people all under the control of one Lexa Woods. Fluence and Roberto stood guard by the sky people and were slowly canvasing the area for any potential dangers. Commanders orders of course.
"Clarke you were so badass in the mountain." Raven gushed to her best friend with a grin. Clarke blushed and thanked her.
"Yeah Clarke, honestly if it weren't for you, we all wouldn't be sitting here." Anya said sitting down beside Raven who grinned widely with a small blush on her face.
"Thank you, guys, but Bell, you were amazing too." Clarke said to redirect the attention away from here. Bellamy blushed and ducked his head. "Are you blushing!" Clarke squealed pushing Bellamy off the log he was sitting on. The ground laughed at the heap of boy on the floor.
"No way Princess." Bellamy laughed and shoved her back almost making her fall if it wasn't for strong hands catching her fall.
"Careful." Lincoln growled at Bellamy who nodded slowly, removing his hands from Clarke's arm. Octavia grinned and wrapped her arms around her boyfriend. The once group of 4 now a group of 6 all sat around the fire slowly eating and talking and laughing, having a good time. Clarke had noticed Bellamy kept fidgeting beside her and trying to move closer.
Looking around Clarke the people all mingling together, dancing or chasing one another. The children's screams of happiness making Clarke smile. She looked for a certain pair of green eyes but couldn't seem to lock onto them. Huffing she tuned back into the conversation just as Anya turned to Raven.
"So, R, what do you say? Want to go on a date with me?" she asked and Raven gaped but nodded and threw her arms around Anya's neck and kissed her cheek.
"Of course, I would." Raven said making Anya smile and hug her closer. Clarke smiled at her friend's happiness. All her closest friends were in relationships or just starting ones. Except...
"Bell, why don't you have a girlfriend yet?" Clarke asked drawing the groups attention, blushing lightly under the attention.
"Well I am interested in someone." Bellamy whispered and Clarke started hitting his arm.
"Who!?" she hissed with a smile; however, her attention was stolen away from Bellamy talking about some blonde.
Green, when you ask someone what they associate with Green, they say something simply like 'colour' or 'grass' but if you ask Clarke. Her answer will be "Lexa." Green eyes that could stop even the mightiest soldier in his wake, probably has. Young 20-year-old Lexa who had the 13 nations problems on her shoulders. Lexa who was so beautiful and Lexa, who was steadily making her way to the group of 6 sat around a fire. Her cape dancing in the wind behind her. Her stride confident and purposeful. She was a woman on a mission. A woman on a question. A woman Clarke L...
"So Clarke, I was wondering." This brought Clarke back to the present. What was going on? "If sometime we could, you know, go out for a walk or for a picnic or something?" Bellamy asked and Clarke smiled and hugged her friend close.
"Of course, Bell. We could do a group thing. How about sometime next week. I'll ask L..." Clarke started but Bellamy's hand on her arm made her stop in her tracks. Lincoln, Octavia, and Anya sat up straight, their backs ramrod and stood to attention but Bellamy shrugged it off. this was his shot.
"No! I mean... just us." He started. "As in me and you." He explained making Raven scoff.
"She knows what 'us' means." Raven said and rolled her eyes but a nudge from Anya made her eyes go wide.
"I think you're beautiful and funny and pretty." Bellamy rambled to a quiet Clarke whose attention wasn't 100% on him but that didn't deter him.
"Dude, you know she had a girlfriend, right?" Raven said and laughed at Bellamy's face. Even Roberto smiled form behind her.
"What, no you don't. She's straight... right?" he asked to Clarke who smiled. She rubbed her hand along Bellamy's shoulder.
"Listen Bell." Clarke tried but Bellamy shrugged it off fiercely making Clarke gasp and Lincoln start to get up. He had orders and he wasn't going to disobey them. With a shake of their head from Clarke he sat back down again. his hand resting tightly against his sword. From where he was sat, he could see Anya was sat in a similar position.
"No, you don't have a girlfriend, if you did, she would be here with you, celebrating peace. I don't see her!" he stressed grabbing Clarke's arm and froze when a stern voice sounded from directly behind him.
"Turn around." The voice demanded and Bellamy turned to see the mighty commander stood directly over him. Overpowering him instantly. "Now you see her." She said with a sneer in her voice. Looking confused for a moment Bellamy's eye went wide and his grip on Clarke tightened making her whimper and instantly he was on the floor with a knife against her neck and a stone faced Heda rested her weight against him. "You dare to put your hands on her." She sneered making him flinch. Anya and Lincoln stood and were ready behind their commander. Octavia and Raven were checking on Clarke who was rubbing her arm slightly whilst looking at Lexa.
"Lex..." he started and was interrupted by Lincoln stepping closer "Commander! Please wait..." he said but was already being dragged away by Lincoln and Roberto towards to the cells. He could be dealt with tomorrow. Lexa turned and looked towards her blonde.
"Clarke, are you okay?" Lexa asked and knelt beside Clarke grabbing her wrist gently and kissing her red marks. "How bad does it hurt?" she whispered but Clarke wasn't looking at her arm. She was staring deeply into Lexa's eyes. "Clarke?"
"I love you." Clarke said and smiled when a grin spread across Lexa's face, leaning up, Lexa laid her lips against Clarke's.
"I love you more, Klark." She whispered. Together the new small family enjoyed the rest of the night and the rest of their lives living in peace and living and protecting one another – a real family.
