In the darkest night hour (your heart is glowing)

“You have to go back; they’re your people. That’s why I—” … love you. No, no , she can’t say that, she can’t, it’s too much and too fast and her heart is beating so hard that it might just leap out of her mouth and say it for her, but she just can’t . But Clarke’s waiting for an answer, even if her eyes tell Lexa she already knows what wasn’t said. “That’s why you’re you,” she says, and she smiles so that she doesn’t cry. Clarke nods like those words made sense too, like they weren’t also skrish of the worst kind.
