Ok, here's a second little insight into Clarke's head.

This scene takes place about ten days after Clarke first met Lexa. Clarke is telling Raven and Octavia all about her new friend. Hope you enjoy:)

Chapter Two

'So how was the party?' Raven curled up on Clarke's couch, Octavia taking the seat beside her, leaving Clarke to drop into her favourite arm chair. Recently back from their outback trip to Austrailia they were over at her place to catch up.

'And did you and Nyko hook up?' Octavia grinned and Raven laughed,

'Yeah, forget the party - did you and Nyko hook up?'

'No,' Clarke shook her head and then smiled when she thought about her new friend - Lexa. Such a pretty name. She loved to say it, even to see it written in text on her phone.

'Ooh, the smile says different,' Octavia waggled her eyebrows and looked at Raven who nodded,

'It does indeed.'

'Shut up, it does not say different because I didn't hook up,' Clarke felt her cheeks flush.

'But you met someone, right?' Raven eyed her knowingly.

'Well yes, but not like that. I met this girl Lexa. I really needed to pee and someone was apparently dying in Lincoln's bathroom - that's the guy who's party it was. Anyway, Lexa lives next door and she said I could use hers. I was desperate and so I said yes. Turns out she's really, really nice. I ended up spending the rest of the night with her,' Clarke smiled and gave a little shrug.

'Really?' The insinuation was heavy in Octavia's voice and Clarke felt her blush deepen,

'Shut up, not like that. She's just this really amazing girl. I mean you have no idea how cool she is. A total dork,' she laughed softly, 'but amazing.'

'Why don't you tell us all about her?' Raven requested with an evil grin.

'Shut up, it's not like that,' Clarke knew her friends were teasing her but her skin felt like it was getting hotter and hotter. Ok, so maybe she had a girl crush - it wouldn't be her first, and probably wouldn't be her last. Lexa was just totally adorable and utterly addictive and that was ok. It didn't mean what Octavia and Raven were saying it did. It just meant she had a new friend and they had a lot of fun together.

'She must be really pretty Rae,' Octavia said sagely and Raven grinned, as they both looked at Clarke who huffed,

'She is really pretty but it's not about that. Don't be annoying.'

'She's pretty, huh?' Octavia asked and Clarke smiled because it didn't sound as loaded as the previous insinuation heavy comments. A little eagerly she pulled out her phone and showed the other two a bunch of pictures.

'Wow, she is hot,' Raven whistled.

'Her eyes are actually green. I mean really green, not just hazel,' Clarke stared at the photo, only looking up when her friends snickered. They schooled their expressions to neutral at once.

'Seen much of this Lexa in the last ten days then?' Octavia asked, tone as neutral as her face.

'I know you guys are making fun of me but I don't care. Yes, I've seen a lot of her - we have so much in common well about some things,' she laughed a little, 'and then about other things nothing in common at all. We have a lot of fun together though. I mean she's a total comic book nerd so we hit up my favourite store, then hers, then all the others in Boston. We've bought tickets to comic con in New York as well. She's obsessed with sushi and has been trying to convince me to eat it, but I managed to turn her onto Thai, so it's all good,' Clarke was staring at her photo as she spoke, unaware of her friends faces.

'What does she do?' Raven asked.

'She's a musician,' Clarke said and then rolled her eyes because that sounded too inadequate, 'actually a rock star.'

'A rock star?' Raven laughed out loud at that. 'Unlikely.'

'No seriously, she and Lincoln are in this band Trikru…'

'Trikru?' Octavia interrupted, jaw dropping. 'She's Lexa Woods from Trikru?'

'Yes,' Clarke crowed triumphantly, feeling vindicated after Raven's mean laughter a few moments earlier. Lexa was most definitely a rock star if Octavia knew the band. 'They're the most amazing band.'

'Hello,' Octavia chastised with wide eyes, 'that's what I've been saying for ages only you two would never listen to them. They are without a doubt the best band around at the moment.'

'Now that's a bold statement,' Raven shook her head. 'I didn't see no Trikru at the Grammys.'

'Oh they will be one day,' Octavia said and Clarke smiled at her fondly.

'Lexa, she writes the music and oh my god is it good. She's so fucking talented,' Clarke scrolled through her phone and thrust it at Raven and Octavia who grabbed it, watching as Lexa strummed at her guitar and sang a song, her beautiful voice silencing them. Clarke smiled because she knew exactly the moment when Lexa caught her eye as she filmed and made a face at her. 'It's the hottest thing in the world when she plays.'

'Hottest?' Octavia asked, both her and Raven looking at Clarke over the phone as they scrolled through more pictures and videos of Lexa.

'You gonna claim different?' Clarke asked pointedly.

'No,' Raven conceded and Octavia nodded too. 'Very hot Clarke.'

'Very hot Lexa is texting you right now,' Octavia stated, before looking up at Clarke with a frown, 'What's a Grounder?'

'Oh, give me,' Clarke snatched her phone.

'What's a grounder Clarke?' Raven crossed her arms and waited expectantly.

Clarke wasn't listening but staring at Lexa's text.

Lexa - Maybe the Grounders could have old school weapons? And maybe they need an enemy who uses guns to fight?

Clarke - Yes! Brilliant! How awesome would the art work be of all these sword wielding people in cloaks and leather and what not?

Lexa - You'll have to really think about the outfits, especially of your protagonists.

Clarke - I still can't decide between Indra and Gustus?

Lexa - The woman every time. Indra is fierce.

Clarke - I love Indra, but I feel like I need more - she's good but not perfect. Maybe I haven't found my protagonist yet?

Lexa - Maybe :p So work on scene setting and back story?

Clarke - Will you help?

Lexa - Of course. Maybe sketch out ideas for characters. That would be so much fun.

Clarke - You want to come over tomorrow. Hang out?

Lexa - Sure. I can come after the gym? Or later?

Clarke - As soon as you can. We can do comic stuff in the morning, then go for lunch?

Lexa - Sounds good.

Clarke - What about a bar in the evening?

Lexa - Ok, yeah, that'll be fun!

Clarke - Copper Tank? Maybe I'll bring my friends and you can bring yours?

Lexa - You having fun catching up?

Clarke - Loads. Miss you though!

Lexa - Yeah, we've been spending a lot of time together:)

Clarke - Not too much right?

Lexa - Never!

Clarke - Good. Phew. I think on of my friends will really like Lincoln.

Lexa - Then I shall text Lincoln and make sure he can make it.

Clarke - Perfect xxx

Lexa - Have fun tonight xxx

'Clarke, dude - we're right here? Meant to be catching up?' Raven waited expectantly.

'What's a Grounder Clarke?' Octavia narrowed her eyes.

'I came up with this new idea for a comic and Lexa has been working on it with me. I mean she mostly plays music while I draw, but I totally trust her when it comes to characters and what not. She's really good at running dialogue with me and is great at helping me add back story.'

'A "grounder," Clarke?' Raven rolled her eyes.

'Before I forget, Lexa and I are going for drinks at Copper Tank tomorrow and you two are coming and so are her friends.'

'The friends are meeting,' Raven clutched a hand to her chest dramatically.

'Oh my god, stop ok. She's my friend.'

'Your very best friend,' Octavia smirked.

'Fine - I won't introduce you to Lincoln the drummer from Trikru who is just your type,' Clarke gave Octavia a haughty look.

'Copper Tank sounds great,' Octavia smiled widely before mouthing at Raven, 'he's hot.'

'You know you still haven't told us what the fuck a grounder is?' Raven pointed out.
