Chapter 4:
Clarke went to her last few classes and went back to her apartment. She dragged her feet across the floor and flopped on the couch.
"Hey princess," said Octavia," what's wrong."
"Is it Lexa?" she said sounding concerned, which something Octavia never is.
Clarke shook her head.
"Are you sure?" Octavia asked jokingly.
"No," Clarke said.
Tell me how you feel about her. I can't help you if I don't know how you feel.
Clarke rolled over and looked at the ceiling.
"Well", she started," She has these beautiful green eyes and every time I look at them it's like I just get lost. And her hair is like soft ocean waves. And I could just drown in her beauty. I think about her all the time and I wish I didn't because she hates me. It's like she lights up the whole room and she doesn't even realize it. She makes my day better whenever I see her. But I don't have the courage to tell her how I feel. I know this is childish but it's pretty much love at first sight for me. I just want to kiss her every time I see her, and whenever she says my name it gives me chill bumps. I don't know why I feel like this, and I've never felt like this about anyone...even Finn."
"Wow Clarke."
Octavja just stared at her. Clarke didn't even know she was holding all of that back. She didn't even know she felt all that stuff. Clarke just closed her eyes and fell asleep so Octavia decided to just leave her alone.
"Lexa, what's wrong," said Lincoln as she payed on the floor staring at the ceiling.
"It's Clarke," she said," I've never felt this way about anybody, even Costia. Her eyes are bluer than the sky on a cloudless day. Her hair is so blond and beautiful it makes me wanna run my fingers through it all the time. She's so beautiful and I don't know what to do. Whenever she smiles it's like the whole world stops. She makes me lose control of my feelings whenever she looks at me. And I don't know why."
"Then why are you so mean to her," asked Lincoln.
"Me and Octavia heard you yelling at her in the apartment the other day."
"It's just that I don't want this to be like Costia, I loved Costia and she was mine. I don't want Clarke to get hurt like Costia was hurt," said Lexa.
"Look, I can't make you do anything, but if you want to know my opinion, I think you should tell her how you feel. You never know, she might feel the same way about you," he said," but you won't know until you tell her how you feel."
She didn't say anything, she just laid there.
"Also," Lincoln said," they're having another hangout night tonight if you want to come."
Lexa thought about it for a minute and decided that she didn't really have anything better to do.
They were having the hangout night at Clarke, Raven and Octavia's apartment tonight. They decided on watching a movie tonight instead of playing video games. Clarke had already picked a horror movie, Halloween. Bellamy, Raven, and Octavia has found seats on the floor when Lincoln and Lexa knocked on the door.
"I'll get it," said Raven.
Raven opened the door to see Lincoln and Lexa.
"Hey guys," she said.
"Hey," they replied.
Clarke saw Lexa and just decided to go back to waiting for Bellamy to start the movie. Lincoln sat on the floor by Octavia leaving Lexa standing there. She saw that the only other seat was beside Clarke on the couch, and she was very reluctant to sit there but decided to sit anyways.
Bellamy started the movie and Lexa realized it was a horror movie they were watching. They got to a jump scare and she jumped a little in her seat. Clarke noticed and laughed a little. Clarke decided to comfort her. She slowly slid her hand across the couch to grab Lexa's hand. Lexa flinched a little bit then let Clarke take her hand. They both looked at each other for a while, but then realized that they were staring at each other and went back to watching the movie.
"I'm gonna get some beers," said Lincoln,"anybody else want one?"
Octavia and Raven both said yes and he went to the kitchen to get them.
When he came back he saw Lexa and Clarke holding hands but pretended not to notice. He handed Raven and Octavia their beers, and pulled out his phone.
Lincoln
8:57 P.M.
CLARKE AND LEXA ARE HOLDING HANDS!!!!!
Octavia saw the message and looked at her boyfriend with a grin.
Octavia
8:58 P.M.
They are so cute, idk why they don't just ask each other out.
Lincoln looked at her and just shrugged his shoulders.
They texted Bellamy and Raven to let them know what was going on.
They started texting each other to come up with a plan to get Lexa to stay over at Clarke's apartment and have Raven and Octavia come up with excuses as of to why they couldn't stay.
They decided on this:
1. Octavia pretends to be sick and asks Lincoln if she can stay with him so she doesn't get Clarke or Raven sick.
2. Raven says that Monty calls her in to work to look at something for a little bit that 'can't wait until tomorrow'.
3. Lincoln asks Lexa is she wants to stay at the apartment tonight with him and Octavia, knowing that she won't because she hates barf.
4. Raven tells Lexa that she can stay here since it will only be Clarke here since Raven just got called into work and Octavia is sick.
5. LexaClarke=LOVE!!!!!!
"Hey guys," said Octavia," I'm gonna go to the bathroom I don't feel so good.
A few minutes later she comes back and tells everyone that she threw up. Bellamy pauses the movie and asks if she's ok. Knowing good and well that she's fine since he was in on the plan.
"I don't think so," she says,"can I stay at your apartment tonight Lincoln? I don't want to get Clarke and Raven sick."
"Yeah baby," he replies.
*Ring-Ring* *Ring-Ring*
"Hello?" says raven as she answers the phone.
Raven set up an alarm that sounds like her phone is ringing so she could pretend that it was Monty.
"Are you serious Monty?" she said.
"Ughh, fine, I'll be there in a little bit, let me get this stuff settled with Octavia first."
"Sorry guys," she said," Monty wants me to come look at some development he's made with our prototype. But I'm going to make sure O is ok first."
"Hey Lexa do you mind staying with us tonight," said Lincoln," oh wait, I forgot you hate barf though."
"She can stay here with Clarke," said Raven," she's not sick."
"Yeah," said Lincoln.
"Did you guys even think to ask us if we're ok with that," said Clarke. They let of each other's hands once Bellamy paused the movie.
"Yeah," said Lexa.
Clarke was surprised to see Lexa actually being on her side for once.
"Well, are you ok with it Clarke," said Raven.
"I mean if she doesn't want to stay with Lincoln, then I'm fine with it I guess," she said.
"I guess I'm fine with it too, I mean I don't have anywhere else to go," said Lexa.
"Alright," said Raven," I'm gonna go see what Monty wants." Everyone but Clarke and Lexa knew that she was really just gonna go stay with Bellamy at his apartment. Lincoln opened the door for Octavia and Raven to go out and soon followed them out after saying goodbye to everyone else.
"Well, if it's just us now, I'm probably gonna go home and go to sleep cause I have a very important meeting tomorrow that I can't be late for."
Clarke waved him goodbye as he walked out the door. And soon enough it was just Clarke and Lexa by themselves in the apartment. They sat there for a few minutes very awkwardly.
Lexa remembered how good it felt when her and Clarke were holding hands and she wanted that feeling back. She slowly slid her hand over to grab Clarke's, Clarke accepted her hand as she turned her body and looked at her. Lexa smiled, and Clarke couldn't help but smile after seeing Lexa's smile. They slowly leaned in towards each other as Lexa let go of Clarke's hand to put it on her face. They're lips met and it felt like there were fireworks going off in Clarke's head. That was probably the best kiss of her entire life.
Lexa leaned Clarke back onto the couch and stopped kissing her for a moment. Clarke tried to kiss her again but Lexa playfully pulled back laughing at Clarke's attempts. Clarke smiled.
"That's not funny," she said while laughing.
"Yes it is," Lexa said while going back in for another kiss.
Lexa slowly slid her hand down towards Clarke's pants, and Clarke stopped her.
"Before we do this you have to tell me why you are so mean to me all the time."
Lexa sat up and looked at Clarke for a minute before talking.
"I had a girlfriend in high school. Her name was Costia. She was that pretty girl that always sat in the corner and didn't say anything. Nobody knew she was gay except for me. Once everyone found out she was bullied so much that she committed suicide. And then a few days ago I saw you and you were the most beautiful girl I had ever seen, but I didn't want you to get hurt like Costia got hurt."
"Oh my gosh Lexa, I'm so sorry," said Clarke sympathetically.
"I guess I should tell you about my high school story for why I'm so scared of relationships. I had a boyfriend. I'm bi by the way. His name was Finn. He was a jock, and always messed with the nerds because he thought that he was better than them, so I broke up with him. He didn't take it too well and decided to try and kill me."
"OH MY GOD," said Lexa.
"Yeah, but luckily Bellamy was 2 years older and much bigger than him and stopped him before he could do anything. I have no idea what happened to him after that."
"Well, said Lexa," I promise you I won't be like that because I am a nerd.
Clarke laughed and Lexa smiled.
"I just can't get over how hot you are," she said.
Clarke smiled and looked down as a loose strand of hair fell over her face. Lexa put her finger on Clarke's chin and lifted her head up and then tucked the hair behind her ear. Clarke thought it was cute how observant she was. Lexa leaned in for a kiss and Clarke kissed her back. They stopped kissing each other for a minute.
"You know what," said Clarke," I think they did this on purpose. I mean isn't it pretty odd that Octavia got sick, Raven got called into work at 9:00 and Bellamy had a meeting all at the same time."
"You're right," said Lexa," that is pretty weird, but at least I have you all to myself."
She said it with a smile and Clarke couldn't help herself from kissing her.
"You're amazing you know that?" Asked Lexa.
"Yeah, I know," said Clarke.
