Dessert
Clarke wraps her arms tightly around her girl and closes her eyes for a second "Hey babe, I missed you too! I've had such a long day and I'm so happy to be home. Uh, it's quiet around here, where are the kids?" She looks at Lexa and her smile said everything.
"They are at your mother's house enjoying being spoiled and going crazy without their mothers watching," Lexa said while keeping her eyes on Clarke's lips. She missed her so much. Yes, she saw her every day but it was rare they ever had time to just enjoy each other without life getting in the way. She loves her kids but a break once in a while was nice plus her mother-in-law is always complaining about how she never sees the kids anymore. Lexa softly kisses her wife and pulls away before she totally lost control. "Let's eat before the food gets cold." She grabs Clarke's hand and takes her to the dining room.
"Damn Lexa, this looks amazing!" Clarke took her seat and started eating. She hadn't eaten all day and was so happy that Lexa made dinner. "Babe this is so good! Thank you so much" Clarke tells Lexa with her mouth half full. She looks at Lexa, who takes her time eating. Embarrassed, Clarke slows down and talks to her wife. "So, what's the occasion for this? Amazing food and candles, am I in trouble?"
Lexa laughs and looks at her wife who has some mashed potatoes on the corner of her mouth. "No love, I just missed you and since the kids are gone, I thought we could do something nice since you've been working so hard."
"Thank you, I really appreciate this" Clarke said finishing her plate and wiped what was on her face off. Clarke starts washing the dishes in the sink. "What else are we doing tonight?" Lexa finishes her plate and walks up behind Clarke dropping her dishes then wrapping her arms around her wife's waist.
Between kisses to the back of Clarke's neck, "Well babe, we can watch a movie, we can take a bath, we can do anything you want." Lexa softly squeezed her wife's waist. Clarke couldn't handle her wife's affection. It felt like the beginning of their relationship again.
