Chapter 1

Lexa Woods was always closed off to people. She didn't get on with others and they never got on with her. She didn't mind this fact because in reality, people annoy her. The idea of having to talk to people never appealed to her, especially on a regular basis while actually being pleasant. That's probably why she decided to become an FBI Agent and profiler after she finished college. Special Agents in the FBI really only have to talk to their partner and some of their colleagues really and even then, they normally talk about other people. Lexa loves her job, she finds it rewarding, having a voice for the people who no longer have a voice. Lexa doesn't believe she's a closed off people, she will talk to people if they talk to her but she won't go out of her way or sought people out to talk to them. The only people who Lexa will happily talk to are some members of her family. There is Anya (who is technically her best friend, but she is practically her sister and also a fellow member on her team in the FBI), her brother Lincoln, her cousin Echo and her aunt Indra. She loved her uncle Gustus, but she lost him recently in an accident at his work, Lexa was devastated for a long time after that. Lexa actually has a rather large family, but these few are the only ones she actually loves and would do anything for. They are also the only people Lexa talks to on a regular basis because she can, not because she has to. But Lexa's view on people changed when she quite literally ran into a strange blonde woman. This odd blonde woman is the first stranger that Lexa had willingly spoken to in a long time. So why was Clarke so different to everyone else?

Clarke Griffin was the complete opposite, she loves people and above all else she loves talking to people and helping them. That's the main thing that Clarke and Lexa have in common, they both love helping people, in different ways, but still helping people. Clarke Griffin is a highly respected surgeon at one of the best hospitals in New York. Clarke graduated top of her class from John Hopkins at the age of 16, one of the youngest ever graduates and then moved to New York to do her residency where she has stayed ever since. Her family is still living in LA, her mum is one of the top cardiothoracic surgeons in the country, and people fly in from all over the country to see her. Her father had been an engineer; he had however passed away in an accident caused by a drunk driver while he was on his way home from work one day, many years ago. So Clarke had decided to follow in her mother's footsteps and become a doctor and the best surgeons she possibly could. So she specialised as a neurosurgeon and she loves every minute of it! The job keeps her on her toes, she never knows what to expect next. Being a child prodigy and a fully qualified surgeon by 21 will do that to you though, it keeps her busy. The only people Clarke sees outside of work is her two best friends, Octavia and Raven, Octavia's brother Bellamy and O's fiancé Lincoln and her own boyfriend, Finn. But her relationship with Finn had been on the rocks for a while now, apparently she is too young and she can't commit properly, her priorities are wrong (his words, not hers). Clarke had never had feelings for anyone else other than Finn, but that was until she met a brooding brunette. Clarke is determined to find out more about her before she just disappears from her life.

Clarke Griffin and Lexa Woods met one sunny spring day at the rehearsal wedding of Octavia and Lincoln when Lexa walked straight into Clarke when she arrived. Lexa and Clarke were both running extremely late from work, Clarke's surgery had run over time and Lexa was just flying back in from Texas after finishing up a case. The odds of both the maid of honour and the best man/best woman both being this late was a crazy idea, but somehow they had both managed. So they were running to get to the church before said rehearsal ended and right at the entrance they both slammed straight into each other. They looked at each other and while Clarke got lost in forest green eyes, a killer jawbone structure and an amazing figure she completely missed Lexa apologising for running into her. Clarke had never been attracted to a woman before, however she has never classified her sexuality because she is one who believes that you can't define love by a gender. But seeing Lexa, holy wow, Clarke was attracted to a woman all right, I mean who wouldn't be, Lexa is hot. Lexa on the other hand has never denied her attraction to women and she definitely won't now. Clarke is very attractive, the way her golden hair shines in the sun and her blue eyes glisten with the light, yeah Clarke is good looking. So after Clarke and Lexa get over their initial shock of running into each other they finally manage to speak to one another (even though Lexa has already apologised).

So Clarke says to Lexa "Oh my god, are you okay? I am so sorry! I was rushing to the rehearsal cause I'm late, wait are you here for the rehearsal as well? Do I know you? Anyway I am sorry, but I really have to go! Shit I am so late, Octavia is going to kill me". Little does Clarke know that Lexa is now currently following her up the stairs as she runs into the church.

Just as Lexa was about to reply Clarke is off and running up the stairs so she says, "It's really fine, I am sorry also" to herself. Lexa looks at this strange blonde who she walked straight into and wonders how much she can get to know her, because now she wants to.
