"Hey!" Lexa smiles at her blonde companion. Clarke right now is trying really hard to keep her nerves at bay.
"Hey, I'm Clarke" She introduces herself as if they've never met before.
"I know" Lexa smirks down, clearly amused by Clarkes blush.
This is going to be interesting.
"Your name is Lexa" Oh my God, Clarke shut the fuck up.
"I just wanted to say the same thing! Are you a mind reader?! Wow!" The sarcasm clearly evident in her voice. Clarke's blush deepens as she looks down at her hands.
"I'm not going to talk ever again." Her voice is so quiet; Lexa could barely hear what she said. To be honest Lexa feels a bit bad for making the blonde feel awkward.
"But I think you're way more fun when you talk." Lexa smiles at Clarke in hopes to loosen the girl up. "It's nice to actually have lunch with a breathing human being for once."
"Do you usually have lunch with dead people?" Clarke jokes though the rumors about the girl sitting on the opposite side of the table run through her mind. Lexa laughs at Clarke's question, shaking her head.
"No, even though many think that I do." There is a hint of seriousness in the brunette's voice.
"Well people who think that are just stupid or lack of drama in their lives so they make up ghost stories about their peers." Clarke offers.
"I thought I was a vampire?" Lexa is genuinely confused. So people think I'm also a ghost?
"Same thing" Clarke shrugs and takes a sip from her drink.
"It's definitely not the same thing, Clarke. Ghost don't have bodies, they can't touch or eat anything while vampires are just like blood sucking human beings only more gorgeous, beautiful and... sexy…"
"But that means you are a vampire." Then she realizes her wording. "I mean not because you are sexy…which you totally are. You are gorgeous. Oh gosh I should really stop speaking sentences, words or even syllables and sounds." Putting on her standard tomato blush she quietly whispers to herself "Oh please Clarke, just shut up for once."
Lexa laughs wholeheartedly, throwing her head back. "Well I do certainly feel that people don't tell me that I'm gorgeous as frequently as I deserve to be told. So thank you." After this they continue conversing about some regular topics until the bell rings indicating the start of the next lesson.
Later that day Clarke and her friends visit Raven to watch a movie they have wanted to see for a while but it turned out to be a flop so they spent the evening gossiping.
Octavia, the gossip queen, initiated a conversation about Lexa.
"Octavia are you crazy! She can't be a vampire; you know why? Vampires only drink blood they don't eat normal food and we've seen Lexa eat in the cafeteria!" Raven counters.
"Yeah, but that doesn't prove anything. Maybe she just puts it in her mouth for show and spits it out later." Octavia retorts offended.
"Maybe she's a unicorn." Bellamy suggests, receiving dozens of deadpan expressions.
"Bellamy, does she look like a horse to you?" Clarke questions his logic.
"I never said anything about horses, I'm talking unicorns. There's a huge difference, unicorns are magic." Speaking with a dreamy voice.
"Clarke, you need to tell us everything about your lunch date with the unicorn… uh sorry Lexa." Murphy pipes up.
"Oh yeah right, maybe she said something that can help us figure out what she is." Raven looks expectedly at the blonde.
"Guys, she is not a supernatural being! She's just a normal girl and she is actually really nice so I don't understand why people make up all this stuff about her." Clarke leans back into the couch with a frustrated sigh.
"Is that so?" Costia's curiosity being peeked. "Do you like her?"
"Me? Her? Noooo. I mean in a friendly not sexualized, no homo way I think she is the most perfect human to ever walk this earth." Clarke looks around a blush creeping up on her face. "Like totally non lesbian"
"I wouldn't judge you. She is really hot, totally my type." Costia daydreams about Lexa.
She is my type too and I knew she was hot since forever. Clarke silently glares at her competition.
The next day at school went by uneventful except for one thing. At lunch Clarke looks for Lexa to ask her if she would like to sit with her and her friends but someone else found her first. Costia is sitting next to the brunette laughing at whatever Lexa just said. Clarke's glare deepens as Costia puts her hand on her crush's arm and slightly leans forward to whisper something in her ear. Whatever she said made Lexa blush as a wide grin appears on her face.
I should be the one making her blush! Clarke thinks as she keeps staring Costia down.
"Clarke?" Raven pulls her out of her thoughts, though her glare never leaves the two laughing women. Octavia follows her line of sight to see what draws the blonde's attention.
"Oh this is bad" Octavia looks back at her friends and reaches for Clarke's hand. "Hey, they are probably just having a friendly conversation."
"Maybe a bit too friendly" The blonde glances at Octavia for a short moment before focusing on Costia with Lexa again. Clarke's eyes widen as Costia scribbles something down on a napkin. A number. Her number. The blonde groans as Lexa takes the napkin and puts it in the pocket of her leather jacket.
Giddy like a lovesick schoolgirl Costia hops over to Clarke and her friends. She flops down next to the annoyed blonde with a huge grin plasters on her face.
"You were right Clarke, Lexa is amazing."
"Oh you spoke with her?" She plays dumb.
"Yeah like a minute ago. I asked her out and gave her my number." Clarke chokes on her food. What?
"And what did she say?" Raven asks hesitantly.
"She said yes! She's picking me up Friday evening. With her car!" I want to get picked up by Lexa with her car. Clarke frowns, she isn't angry anymore. Now she's just sad and disappointed that she hasn't had the guts to ask Lexa out. Honestly Clarke doesn't cry often but right now she felt like locking herself in a bathroom and crying for a week.
I hate Costia! She doesn't even know what she did! I swear she's going down!
