Chapter 15
Clarke was lying awake smiling softly. Lexa had her head on her chest she had been sleeping a good 16 hours. She wove her hands though her curls and kissed the top of her head. Night, snow and buck were sitting at the door guarding their 2 leaders. Bucks stood up excitedly and Clarke knew who was going to come through that door.
"Hey princess" whispered Raven as she walked in. Buck quickly stood by her side and licked her hand.
"Hey" she said back. "She didn't sleep much did she" Raven shook her head
"No it was hard griff I tell ya that woman is stubborn it was hard to get her to eat and sleep" Clarke closed her eyes and pushed back her frustration, annoyed Lexa hadn't been taking care of herself "hey but don't tell the raccoon I told you" Raven grinned
"Where is Jaha?"
"Not sure warriors are still out looking for him" Clarke nodded
"So your getting married" Raven smirked. Clarke gave her a smile that reached her eyes.
"Told ya I would" she said playfully. Raven laughed
"That you did, do you remember anything from the Bunker" Clarke thought about it
"Hmm I remember I thought I was going to die and then I had this really weird dream rayes" Raven lent forward on the bed
"Tell me about it" She asked
"Well where I went there was my dad and anya" she said happily "I remember I sat down with anya we were both looking over Polis" Clarke looked down to Lexa "my dad was there and I think I felt at peace like I could leave if I wanted too but when I looked at Polis I remembered Lexa and, and leaving was not an option cause I didn't want to leave her. Anya and my father told me that that place I was at was where people waited for there loved ones so that there souls are reborn into a new life together that is why Anya was there" she felt Lexa stir and sit up with water in her eyes she cupped Clarkes cheek
"It's called the in between hodnes" Lexa borrowed her head into Clarkes neck and squeezed her tightly. She was frightened at how close Clarke was to death. Clarke felt Lexa tears soak her shirt
"Leksa what's wrong" Lexa didn't answer. Just cried into her shoulder. "Leksa? Talk to me" she said softly.
"You almost died Klark" she mumbled into her neck. Clarke rubbed soothing circles on lexas back. Raven reached over Clarke and squeezed lexas shoulder
"But she didn't sis"
"Yeah I'm right here Leksa" Lexa nodded into Clarkes neck. She waited until her tears stopped. And she sat up and looked at Clarke and Raven.
"Me and Anya we made a pack that we would wait for each other. Death is not the end" she said proudly. Clarke held lexas hand tight
"She will be waiting a long time hodnes" Clarke said
"Will you guys wait for me" asked Raven
"Sha" said Lexa
"Of course rayes" said Clarke.
Knock knock
Lexa stood from the bed her wolves ran to her side.
"Enter" Murphy entered
"Heda Lincoln and the scouting crew are back. They have Jaha" Lexa stood straight. Hands clenched at her side. Her wolves felt her anger and started howling. Clarke sat up
"Leksa calm down" Lexa snapped her head to Clarke
"Calm down? He will die Klark he will die a painfully slow death for trying to take you and the little bird from me" she growled the wolves howled again. Raven stood up and tried to approach her but Clarke put her hand on her arm to stop her.
"Hodnes?" Clarke said softly. Lexa started to pace "Leksa?" She tried again "Ai houmon kom be" that made Lexa stop. She closed her eyes trying to calm her breathing. Clarke held out her hand "come here Beja" Clarke said. Lexa clenched her jaw but slowly walked towards Clarke. She took her hand but stood rigid by the bed. Clarke pulled her forward so she kneeled on the bed
"You will not talk me out of it Klark he deserves to die" she snapped. Clarke cupped her jaw
"I think he does too but we need information from him. You need to think like heda not someone who almost lost their loved ones" Clarke reasoned. She lent forward and kissed Lexa. "Ok?"
"Sha"
"You two are so gross" Raven said playfully. Lexa laughed.
"I need your help sister"
"Ok anything you need"
"I need you to find out what it is alie wants and how to shut her down. Killing Jaha will not stop this programme she will find another puppet"
"Ok I'll get monty to help me" Lexa nodded
"I want to be in the room when Jaha is being questioned Leksa" Lexa rolled her eyes
"Ok"
"Ok? Well that was easier then what I thought" Lexa chuckled
"Well hodnes if I had of said no you would have turned up anyway" Clarke smiled
"You know me too well"
