~Clexa~ Not the end, the beginning.

Clarke.

"Finally!" Raven practically screams when we reach the gates at Arcadia.

I motion to whoever is in the post today to let us in.

We walk through the gates and I walk with Raven to her room.

"You need to rest your leg."

She throws me a annoyed look.

"I'm fine."

I give her a smile and head to my room.

I lay my bag on the bed and then walk into the bathroom.

I look awful. My hair is in knots, I'm covered in dirt and my shirt is ripped.

I turn the water on in the shower.

I pull off my clothes and step into the cold water.

My thoughts close off for those few moments under the water.

I get out and they're back.

I wrap with a towel.

I go back into my room and walk over to my boxes to find some clothes.

"I have good timing."

I turn.

My mind goes blank. She's right there. Sitting in a chair in my room. Oh my goodness I'm dead. I must be.

"H-how y-y-y lex-"

She get up and walks over to me and puts her arms around me.

"Shhh I'm here. I think this is the first time we've ever hugged."

She laughs a little.

"H-how is this possible?" I ask putting my arms around her too.

"Well... When Raven added the door in the City of Light, I was able to leave through it."

It makes sense but it just feels so surreal.

She pulls back and looks at me.

The towel drops.

We both laugh a little.

"Don't worry it's not like I haven't saw it before." She jokes.

She so calm and relaxed I haven't saw her like this since the Mazen.
