A/N All characters belong to Kass Morgan or the CW depending. Only the plot is mine.
Clarke's POV
You open your eyes and you are suddenly on the drop ship, just milliseconds after the two idiots killed themselves by unstrapping their harnesses. The first person her eyes found was Murphy, and he looked equally confused.
"What the fuck just happened?" asked Octavia.
"You remember too?" you responded. "Who here remembers and what do they remember?"
"Up to my death," came the response from Monty.
A chorus of 'same' rang throughout the Dropship.
"Better question is, who doesn't remember," called Bellamy from his hiding spot.
Everyone looked around and it seemed they were all caught in some loop. Then your mind found itself to the first and last thing on her mind every single day. Lexa
"Well about time we got outta here don't you think Princess," he called from right behind you. Finn
"Yeah I guess."
You and Bellamy stand together at the door to the Dropship and pull the lever to lower it. Your mind goes to another lever, in another time, and you know that you can redo everything.
Just before the door drops, you hear Octavia mutter, "Nou Blodreina nowe."
The door drops, and with it your jaw as you see Lexa and Lincoln standing at the entrance.
"Wanheda?" she tests, trying to get a feel as to whether you remember or not.
"En's ku," you tell her before you catch a glimpse of Octavia running into Lincoln's arms.
The 50-odd that died in the dropship or before are confused but you ignore everything outside of you and Lexa.
"Who came back?" you ask, not trusting your legs to keep you upright.
"Myself, Lincoln, Indra and Roan."
"When did you come back?" asked Bellamy as he realised that they were waiting on you.
The next words cause you to turn on your heels and run. "In time to save Costia."
Raven's POV
"Hey Abby!" you call as you make your way to the medical ward on the Ark. You forgot what it was like when the ark was overpopulated after your 6 years alone.
"I'm sorry, do I know you."
You sigh because of course she doesn't remember. You don't even know if you're the only one or if the Dropship is bustling with 17 year olds remembering Sanctum, Praimfaya, and all the other adventures (more like trips to the edge of sanity and health). However you are brought out of your musings when you hear a commanding voice call to Abby.
"Raven's with me. Sorry about that."
"No problem Kane."
He motions to you and you both go to an empty room nearby.
"You remember?" you ask your voice laced with hope.
"Up to sucking all the air out of my lungs. Yes I remember. Now we need to figure out a way to prevent the Culling, Praimfaya and hope to God the 100 on the ground remember. Or at least some of them do."
"No one else on the Ark remembers?"
"Nope."
"Well I'll be careful. I know the ring like the back of my hand so I won't get caught. Might take time to figure out ways to get all of us to the ground. And what to we do about Pike and others?"
"We watch them, but they haven't done anything yet ok."
"Sha."
Clarke's POV
You lie in you tent, after spending the whole day talking with Monty about reestablishing contact with the Ark and finding others who came back. You try hard to convince yourself that you are not avoiding Lexa, just ensuring that everything is running smoothly. The hiccups have been with the people Murphy murdered, Charlotte, Finn still in love with you and god you just want to sleep. Apparently thats not going to happen just yet as your tent flaps open to give way to Lexa.
"Clarke," you shudder as she says your name and after so long you wonder how she still has this affect on you. "Can I talk to you?"
"Are you sure Costia is okay with it?" you snap trying oh so desperately to hide your jealousy.
"I don't care. I'm not with her anymore. I broke it off as we came back. I've been waiting for you for years Clarke. Years."
"Why Lexa? Don't you love Costia."
"I did. The same way you loved Finn. It's love but with you it's not just love. There is something that pulls me to you, more than you know. My heart beats faster when I come close to you. Your stupidly beautiful eyes make me lose my ability to coherently think and I end up on my knees, which I get berated for everyday by the past Commander. But I don't care because when I wake up I'm one step closer to getting you back. You make me feel the way no one else can. Ai hod yu in Clarke kom Skaikru."
"Ai hod yu in Heda Lexa com Trikru."
And with that your lips are on hers and you spend probably your millionth sleepless night on Earth, but this one is for all the right reasons.
