Forever Yours

Realizations and Talks

Clarke

I smiled at Lexa.  We were waiting for Raven and Luna to join us and Octavia and Lincoln were deep in conversation about something.  Both Lexa and I were leaning towards each other, leaving only about two inches between our faces.

Unable to resist, I closed the distance and kissed her.  It didn't last long before a yelp made us pull apart.

"Sorry Raven." It was Luna.

"It's okay Luna.  I'm just not used to walking like this and we both got excited and I can't go fast because I can't move my leg that fast yet." Raven replied.

I frowned at Lexa in confusion, I had seen Raven move when she wanted to and she could keep up with me while I'm running.  She can move pretty fast despite her leg.

The two entered the room with small smiles on their faces and I realized something instantly, flying to my feet in alarm and shock.  "Raven where's your brace?" I asked incredulously.

"I'm not using it anymore.  Luna's helping me get it back to the way it used to be." Raven said like it was obvious.

Lexa chuckled, "You really have turned around, haven't you Luna?"

"I'm doing my best." Luna said, making her way to her seat with Raven.

I sat back down.  "Of all things that have happened on the ground, paralyzed limbs being healed is one thing I never thought I'd see." I said, half to myself and half to anyone within earshot.

"We never thought we'd be dating girls with black blood where one is the leader of thousands of people and the other is her sister either." Raven said, grinning, then she gasped, causing everyone to look to her.  "I just realized something." She said, literally bouncing in her chair.

"What hodnes (love)?" Luna asked.

"Clarke, you and I might be sisters one day." Raven said, still bouncing.

My eyes widened, "I just realized that when you said it Rave!   Oh my gosh!  We might actually be sisters!" I said, a grin spreading across my face as we let out identical squeals.  I could see that both Luna and Lexa were restraining their laughter.

"That's customary for Grounders too." Octavia put in and I guessed she was referring to people becoming family.

"Raven we might be legitimate sisters." I say.

"I know." She replied, nodding.

Lexa chuckled, shaking her head fondly, "You two only now realized this?"

"And when did you realize it Miss High and Mighty?" I huffed teasingly.

"Just now." Lexa deadpans, making me lay on the table in laughter while Raven tried (and horribly failed) to mask her laughter by burying her face in Luna's shoulder.  The red haired woman herself was chuckling with a fond smile at Lexa while shaking her head slightly.  Octavia and Lincoln were also chuckling.

After around five minutes I recovered, "Okay...  I'm good." I said, nodding.

Raven giggled and smiled widely at me, "You are too funny Griff."

"Griff?" I asked.

"You call me Rave and there isn't a way to shorten Clarke." She said, rolling her eyes.

"Go make out Lunven." I huffed.

"Don't bring me into this!" Luna exclaimed, eyes widening.

"Maybe we will and maybe we won't." Raven huffed, loading her's and Luna's plates and then marching out - carrying both plates.
