Disclaimer: I do not own any part of this brilliant show. The only thing here that's mine, is the universe.

A/N: First ever clexa fic because these idiots have taken over my life. Also like the second time I've written anything AU so please be gentle.
The fic kinda started with me listening to "Shut Up and Dance" but then took on a life of its own and now it has nothing to do with the song.

An unexpected knock on the door brought Lexa back to reality from her Game of Thrones binge watch. Although she had read the first three books, Lexa had never really watched the TV adaptation. That paired with the fact that it was a slow week and not much work to do over the weekend, made it a no brainer really. Second day in, she was just finishing up with season 1.

She paused her episode and turned her head towards Lincoln's bedroom door – which remained shut. Reluctantly, she swung her legs of the couch and stood up with a sigh.

The person on the other side started speaking even before she could open the door enough to see who it was. "O, I swear to go-" But stopped abruptly at the sight of Lexa. "You're not O…" The blonde with the impossibly blue eyes pointed out, letting her shoulders drop "…or Lincoln."

Friends of Lincoln's should've known. She thought to herself. Although Lexa wanted to respond, she seemed to have gotten lost in those blue eyes. Someone clearing their throat a second later brought her back to her senses. "Sorry," she muttered shaking her head. "Can I help you?"

The girl, who Lexa could only refer to as the blonde, seemed distracted when her friend – who she didn't realize was there till now – spoke. "Is there a Lincoln here or do we have the wrong place?" Not a hint of hesitation in her voice considering how they could've possibly knocked on a stranger's door. As a matter of fact, she actually sounded…mildly pissed off. What…?

"Yeah, yeah Lincoln's here. Come on in." She held the door open for them. The mildly pissed off one – fine, the brunette – entered first with the blonde trailing close behind who muttered a small thank you. "I'll get him."

Lexa walked up to Lincoln's bedroom door, a couple of feet away from the blonde and the brunette who were now standing in her living room – their names still unknown to Lexa – and knocked. "Lincoln?" She called. "A couple of your friends are here."

Walking back to the two girls, she spoke, "Friends of Lincoln or Octavia?"

"Octavia's so Lincoln's too I guess." The blonde replied with a smile. "I'm Clarke by the way." She held out her hand for Lexa.

"Lexa," she replied, shaking the blon-…Clarke's hand.

The two probably held on for a moment too long because the brunette decided to step in once again. "Raven," She said with a small smile and Lexa shook hands.

Lincoln's door swung open a moment later, "I'll leave you guys to it." Lexa managed a polite smile before walking to what Clarke and Raven could only assume was her bedroom and closed the door.

"Damn Lincoln. That's who you're crashing with?" Raven said to Lincoln before turning her view to Octavia who was standing right next to him. "If I were you, I'd be worried."

Lincoln and Octavia met about a week ago at her brother's coffee shop, The Ark. They had clicked instantly and both Clarke and Raven seemed to have approved of him. He told them he was new in town and still looking for a place so he was crashing with a friend.

"Hi Raven. Its nice to see you too." Lincoln started. "And it's not like that. Lexa's like a sister to me."

"And besides," Octavia stepped in. "It's not like she's into Lincoln…or any other guy."

"But her shirt sai-" Clarke started but got was cut off by Lincoln.

"My sister, got it for her as a joke." He explained.

Clarke only nodded in acknowledgment. However, Raven's face took on a look Clarke and Octavia knew all too well. "Raven." She warned her friend.

Pretending not to have heard her, she continued. "Is she…seeing anyone?"

"No bu-" Lincoln started but was soon cut off by Raven.

"Well isn't that a coincidence." Faking her innocence was one of the very few things Raven Reyes was bad at. "Neither is Clarke."

"Please stop." Clarke made another desperate attempt at stopping her friend from playing matchmaker…again.

"Yeah." Octavia agreed. "and Clarke hasn't be-"

However, before she could finish, Clarke cut her off. "I'm already mad at you O, don't make it worse."

Raven had opened her mouth to speak but Octavia beat her to it. "Wait, what? Why are you mad at me?"

Raven's face changed in a flash as she crossed her arms and looked disapprovingly at Octavia.

"Bell's apartment?" Clarke tried to remind her.

Realization dawned on her. "Oh…"

"You down right abandoned me and Clarke to help him unload and unpack his stuff." Raven exaggerated.

Bellamy Blake, Octavia's very protective, very loving older brother – kind of like a brother to Clarke too; the coffee shop owner; had just moved into a new apartment and the three of them – O, Raven and Clarke – were supposed to help with unpack today; only O completely 'forgot'.

After a few seconds of silence, Octavia spoke up, seemingly perplexed, "Wait, you guys came all the way here to what? Tell me off…?"

Clarke rolled her eyes with a sigh as Raven threw her head back and groaned.

"Movie night, O." Lincoln spoke up.

"Remember? You, me, Clarke, Bellamy, Lincoln." Raven reminded.

"Monty and Jasper might join us too." Clarke added.

"Hey Lincoln?" From Raven's suggestive tone, it sounded like a 'brilliant' idea had come to her.

Clarke knew what that meant, "Raven don't."

Raven, once again, pretended not to have heard her best friend and continued. "Would Lexa maybe like to join us?"

"Oh god no." Clarke whispered, falling onto the couch and letting her head fall into her hands. "Lincoln, I like you." Her voice was muffled through her palms, "Please stop listening to Raven."

Lincoln also pretended to have not have heard her. "You know what? You're right."

"Aren't I always?" Raven asked rhetorically, not missing a beat.

"It's been a while since Lexa was seeing someone and she could use a break her work."

"OH. MY. GOD." Clarke exclaimed, her voice low and deep as she brought her head up to look at her so-called friends. "O, help." She let out a whine, probably a bit too loud and hoped Lexa hadn't heard that.

However, Octavia did nothing but watch with an amused smile on her face. Her boyfriend taking Raven's side and going along with her ridiculous plans to set up Clarke with his really hot roommate? Well, that's not something you see everyday.

"I'll ask her." Lincoln said with a smile as he began making his way to Lexa's bedroom.

"I hate everyone." Clarke said to no one in particular nodding with a slight shrug like it's a known fact.

.

"Lex," Lincoln knocked on her door.

"Its open." Came her voice from the other side.

Opening the door just enough to pop his head inside he started, "You met Clarke right?"

Looking up from the file she had been writing in, Lexa replied, "Yeah, why?"

"Movie night at her and O's place. They were wondering if you wanted to join us."

"Uh…" Lexa was looking for a semi-believable excuse to not go. She really just wanted them all to leave so she could go back to watching Game of Thrones…but there was a small part of her that wanted to. There was something about Octavia's blonde friend, – umm, Clarke – which Lexa couldn't quite put her finger on.

"Not too many people. The three of them, Octavia's brother, and me. Also maybe two of their friends. They don't bother showing up half the time."

She thought it over, contemplating whether this friend of O's was worth getting dressed and leaving the house for.

"I know you don't have too much work this weekend." Lincoln reminded her. Maybe she shouldn't have told him that.

Finally sighing in defeat, Lexa gave in. Clarke apparently outweighed Game of Thrones and she'd only known her for what? 10 seconds? For all she knew, Clarke could be straight. "Fine, give me a minute. I'll be right out."

Lincoln gave her a small smile as he closed the door behind him and walked back to the girls.

.

They were all staring at him intently when O spoke. "Well?!"

"She's in." He let them know. And Raven let out a triumphant yes.

"O?" Clarke called.

"Yeah?"

"I don't like your boyfriend anymore." She said simply. Obviously she was joking and Octavia and Lincoln knew that. If anything he's probably one of the nicest guys Clarke's ever met.

Octavia feigned seriousness "I'll let him know."

.

Lexa put her file down once the door closed and stood up. It took her less than a minute to change out of the shorts she had been wearing and into a pair of skinny jeans (she wouldn't have bothered if it wasn't getting a bit chilly outside). Contemplating whether she needed to change her t-shirt, Lexa looked down at the one she was wearing. Oh. My. God. Was I really wearing this t-shirt in front of them? A t-shirt that said, "Boner donor" with a red cross on it probably didn't make the best first impression. Why am I even wearing it? Hopefully Clarke – and Raven – hadn't noticed…? If they had, they didn't say anything.

.

A couple of minutes after Clarke had realized her friends were probably the worst people ever, Lexa's door opened as she walked out to meet them. Fuck, Clarke thought as she caught a glimpse of her. I am so fucked. She was probably staring but couldn't really make herself look away. Yes, she had realized Lincoln had a really hot roommate when they first got here…but Lexa looked so much better with her hair down; soft brown curls, framing her perfect face perfect-…

"Aww I liked the other shirt you were wearing." Raven said to Lexa, faking disappointment and brining Clarke out of her thoughts.

Clarke shot her a look, which undoubtedly said 'shut up'.

Lexa looked away from Raven uneasily. Her eyes moving between Octavia and Clarke as she tried to break the awkwardness, "So…what are we watching?"

"Bellamy," Octavia started before realizing Lexa probably didn't know who that was. "My brother, he's picking tonight."

"War movie probably." Raven chimed in. "He has a thing for it."

"I think we're watching Fury." Clarke said.

"Oh I haven't watched that one yet." Lincoln spoke up.

A chorus of 'watched it's and 'I have's erupted from the girls.

"But it's a good movie so we're up for watching it again." Clarke spoke for the rest of them as they nodded along.

.

"So me, Lincoln and Lexa are gonna take his car;" Octavia said as they walked up to their parked cars. "you and Raven take yours?"

"Yeah," Raven said with an over enthusiastic smile.

"Oh no." Clarke shook her head. "Not after what you just pulled. You're gonna drive me nuts."

"Umm okay." Lincoln interjected with a smile. "Then she can ride with us."

Lexa seemed confused and Clarke really wanted to explain but didn't know how to do that without making things awkward. "What? So the three of you can scare her off?"

"I don't…" Lexa muttered, speaking for the first time since they'd left her apartment. "I don't think they can scare me off."

Octavia and Lincoln nodded before Octavia spoke. "Okay. Then the three of us," She said indicating herself, Lincoln and Raven "will take Lincoln's car. You and Lexa can take yours."

Clarke narrowed her eyes at O. Clearly there was no way she was winning tonight.

"I'm more than happy to take my car if…" Lexa pointed out but was cut off by Clarke before she could finish.

"No no. They just really hate me." Clarke smiled. "Besides, parking's a bitch at our place. And you guys," she looked at O, Lincoln and Raven, "can scheme away in peace and I'll have nothing to do with it."

"So you're okay going with Clarke?" Octavia asked Lexa.

She just shrugged, she didn't really get what the big deal was. "Yeah why not?"

"Clarke?" Octavia asked, making sure her best friend was okay with it, not that it really mattered when it came to things like this.

"Yeah. If it means not having to listen to you guys for a while, please."

.

With that they all got into their respective cars and pulled out. After driving for a solid minute in complete silence – a comfortable silence weirdly enough – Clarke spoke "I love them. I really do." She glanced at Lexa for a split second before turning her eyes back to the road. "And they love me. This is just how they show it. Although it drives me crazy…" She trailed off.

Lexa only nodded before blurting out "What were you guys talking about back then?" It probably had nothing to do with her so she added quickly, "Sorry. Its probably none of my concern."

"No it's alright. Half the time I don't even know what's going on."

"Are they like planning a murder or something? 'cause I should know stuff like that." Lexa feigned seriousness.

Clarke did a little double. "If they were planning a murder, why would want to know? Wouldn't you want to be as far away from that as possible?"

"I'm not a hired gun if that's what you're getting at."

"That's a relief." Clarke joked, going as far as letting out a sigh of relief.

Lexa smiled. I really am fucked. Clarke thought. That smile can probably light up the worl- fuck? I just met her…? Maybe slow down a bit. "So what do you do and why should you know if someone's planning a murder?"

Lexa's smile widened at the ridiculous blonde sitting beside her. She doesn't really remember the last time someone had that effect on her. "Homicide detective." She replied.

"That's so cool!" Clarke exclaimed.

"And you?"

"Med school." She replied matter-of-factly.

"Impressive." Lexa noted.

They drove in silence for a few more minutes before Clarke spoke again. "Oh right. You asked me what they were talking about."

"Oh yeah," Lexa hadn't really forgotten, just went along with Clarke. "You don't have to tell me if you don't want to though."

She did want to tell her but that could potentially make things awkward between them. "They were talking about setting us up together." Clarke said factually

"Us? As in the two of us?" Lexa asked in confusion.

"Yep."

"Oh. " Lexa was almost certain Clarke was straight. "Wait, why?" She asked quickly.

"Does Lincoln do that a lot?" Clarke wondered if he was as bad as Raven and Octavia.

"Not usually. Was this his idea?"

"Raven's. Lincoln was the first one to back her up though; and Octavia just stood there and watched."

The car stopped at a red light. "According to him, you haven't really been with anyone in a while." Clarke stated.

"He's not wrong." Lexa stated, not missing a beat as Clarke continued.

"And according to my friends, I haven't either."

"Are they wrong?" The moment the question left her mouth, she wanted to take it. This wasn't her place.

"Well…I guess one-night stands don't really qualify as 'seeing someone' so no, they're not wrong." From Clarke's tone, it didn't seem like she'd minded Lexa's question. "Sorry, this is getting weird."

"No no, its fine. I'm not really the dating type." Lexa said trying not make it sound like she wasn't interested in Clarke. "And Lincoln knows that. Its just…work. It takes up all my time."

"I know what you mean. Well not work-work, study-work. The fact that I can take the night off to watch a movie is a miracle."

Lexa nodded with a small smile.

.

They drove in silence up until Clarke pulled up by her and Octavia's apartment. "Here we are." She pulled the keys out of the ignition and they both got out.

"Hey," Clarke called out as she watched Lincoln's car pull up by her's.

"Yeah?"

"I'm really sorry about Octavia and Raven tonight. They like to play matchmaker and will probably drive you insane. So if you want to leave in the middle of the movie, I'd completely get you. Just…take me with you…?"

Lexa gave her a small smile "Will do." Nodding she added, "Or if they embarrass you too much and you need to step out, I'll be right behind you."

With that they walked inside and waited for the others to join them.

"Oh and Lexa?"

"Hmm," She hummed in response.

"The other shirt was cuter." Clarke tried to not laugh but failed.

Lexa only rolled her eyes.

So yeah, that's the first chapter. I'm kinda not sure where this is going BUT I'm halfway through chapter 2.
Raven is awesome I know and I'm sorry if I made her sound...idk annoying or something. I'll do my best to fix it.

I would put a link to Lexa's boner donor shirt but I can't.

A/N: So yeah, that's the first chapter. I'm kinda not sure where this is going BUT I'm halfway through chapter 2. Raven is awesome I know and I'm sorry if I made her sound...idk annoying or something. I'll do my best to fix it.
