This is a Clexa Hogwarts story, I have read all the books, but i'm a little rusty. I wished for someone to write this story line for a long time. I thought why not try myself.
Clarke Griffin was racing through the station, Abby Griffin her mother was following toe, pushing a cart with a screeching white owl on the top. It was 10.56 a.m on September 1 and Clarke was almost curtain she was going to miss the train. As the metal ticket box came up, dividing platforms nine and ten she only increased her pace, not bothering to looking around for muggles. Barely blinking an eye as she disappeared through the seemingly solid wall.
With a loud groan Clarke wondering for a second if she had run at the wrong wall, but soon realised she had made it through to platform 93/4 only to run into a confused looking girl.
Before Clarke could say anything her mother came through, almost hit both the girls, only to be stopped by Clarke holding her steady. Clarke looked around to apologise to the girl, but saw that she had already boarded the now moving train.
Startled, Clarke ran to the open door following the Brunette girl and turn to catch the cage and luggage being throw her way - grunting as the luggage hit her full force in the stomach she yelled out "thanks mom!" In a sarcastic voice, her mother simply laughed and ran along the side of the train "Love you!" "stay out of trouble!" Her mother yelled.
Waving to her daughter as the train departed the station and turned out of site.
Clarke gathered her things and checked on Remy, her rather disgruntled owl who seemed quite in shock at the events that had just past. "Sorry about the Rem" Clarke laughed, "but my mom has no arm" joking to herself.
Clarke heard someone chuckle behind her. Turning, Clarke realised it was the girl she almost ran down on the platform, now that she looked she realised who it was, blushing.
"Im so sorry!" Clarke said, wipping her hair from her face. "I wasn't really think when I ran through the wall, just about being super late" she laughed, feeling a little embarrassed.
"You know" The brunette behind her said, "I think running through walls is already throwing caution to the wind, so why bother checking who's on the other side" winking, she helped Clarke to her feet.
"Hahaha, very funny" Clarke replied, pulling her luggage over to the corner and walking towards the other girl.
Then for the second time that day Clarke had a mini hard attack (first of course almost missing her 6th year at Hogwarts) When she heard someone scream her name.
Looking behind her was her best friend, fellow Griffindor. Slightly shorter then Clarke with long dark hair and a huge grin plastered on her face.
Octavia Blake. Clarke laughed at her as Octavia scooped her up in a bear hug. "What the hell Clarke!" She said, finally realising Clarke and going to grab the cage at her feet.
"I was starting to think you'd ditched me for the year! you know I can't just DO my own homework!"
Octavia joked, pushing Clarke's shoulder. As she turned to follow Octavia back to a carriage, Clarke turned and said "bye Lexa".
—
Settling into the Carriage, Clarke was welcomed by her fellow housemates. Lincoin Woods, Jasper Jordan, Harper Smith, Nathan Miller and Octavia's older brother Bellamy Blake.
Bellamy stood up and much like his sister engulfed Clarke in a tight hug, only letting go when Clarke complained that he was suffocating her.
Finally sitting down between Octavia and Jasper, Clarke let out a breath, finally relaxing. "Well that was a close one" she said.
Octavia rolled her eyes "Yeh no shit Clarke!, what happened?"
"The usual, mum wasn't ready, I wasn't ready, and basically i just wanted to keep up the tradition of me being late"
Bellamy laughed and settled back into his seat opposite her, grabbing his copy of Quiddich International and propping his legs up next to Clarke, earning a discussed look from his sister.
"Well now that you've stopped worrying about me, after a whole two minutes - I feel loved" Clarke
said.
It was 40 minutes into the trip when the their was a rapping on the sliding doors, showing an older lady pushing the usual trolley, topped with assorted cakes and sweets.
Launching out of her seat, Clarke watched as Octavia scrambled to the trolley holding out some coins and grabbing a rather large handful of candy.
Laughing at her best friend, Clarke stood and walked over to Grab Cauldron Cake, before she could pay the lady she was interrupted by someone. "Sorry! Sorry I forgot to grab Raven a cake", It was Lexa Woods, panting and holding her sides - Looking at the lady pushing the trolley. Grabbing a Cauldron Cake and handing over the coins she realised Clarke was staring at her with raised eyebrows.
"Oh Clarke hey, didn't see you there" Lexa said, blushing a ting of pink.
"Clearly" Clarke laughed handing over her coins and still looking at Lexa.
"Well I better go" Lexa said rather awkwardly, turning on her heel and rushing back to her carriage.
Sitting back down and opening her cake and ignoring the moaning sounds Octavia was making next to her as she ripped the head off a chocolate frog.
Clarke thought about the last time she had seen Lexa.
It was the last day of term and everyone was either in the great hall having a last gossip and talking about holiday plans, or in their dorms finishing off packing.
Lexa had dragged Clarke into an empty classroom and was pulling her by the collar of her white shirt, bringing Clarke up to her and joining their lips together.
Clarke was a little surprised as Lexa had just asked if she could talk to Clarke before they left the castle, but even in the surprise she was feeling, she kissed back. She felt lightheaded or drunk as Lexa brought her hands up to Clarke's neck, kissing her harder and letting out a shaky breath as Clarke ran her hands down Lexa till they stopped at her waist, holding tightly.
Lexa then pushed forward until Clarke was up against the door of the classroom, letting out a moan, Clarke kissed her deeper and didn't miss Lexa digging her nails in her skin, like she was trying to control herself.
Then Clarke heard voices and laughing, effectively waking her from what felt like a drunken haze. Pulling away from Lexa, Clarke moved to the side and stepped back.
"Sorry I can't Lexa" she said, not meeting her eyes, fiddling with her watch. "I'm not ready, I dont know what I want, its unfair" Clarke rambled.
Lexa looked away and clearly looked upset. "Clarke I - I just wanted to say have a good summer"
walking towards the door, "see you next year".
Looking back on it, Clarke felt her cheeks redden and she quickly ducked her head, making sure no one was looking at her.
She couldn't believe she had turned down Lexa Woods, the Lexa Woods everyone wanted. The Lexa Woods that became Ravenclaw Quiddich Captain at only fourteen. Every girl was jealous of the attention she got from guys, and every guy was jealous of how she could ride a broom.
Mostly though, Clarke couldn't believe she turned down the Lexa Woods that drove her crazy in every way.
