Raven and Clarke was sitting in their kitchen having dinner, talking about their day. "Today was brutal"; Clarke stated. "I hate it when mondays are so stressfull". Raved nodded. "I know, there's always so much to do after the weekend. Thankfully I had lunch with James today, so I can't complain". Raven smiled and got a dreamy look on her face. "That's great Raven, I'm so happy that you two finally started dating! It was about time!" Suddenly there was a knock at the door. Clarke yelled; "Come in", not expecting anyone, but their friends often came over in the afternoons. "Hey O", Clarke said when she saw that it was Octavia. "I'm so bored! Want to go out and do something, anything?" "I would love to, but I am so tired", Clarke said while yawning. "Hard day at work". Raven agreed, and asked if O wanted to hang out at their place instead, and she decided to do so.
"Where's Lincoln?" Clarke asked Octavia. She was used to them being glued together almost 24/7. "At the gym, you know him and his workouts!" Clarke definitely knew. Lincoln was all muscle, and pretty much looked like a real badass. But he was as sweet as anyone could be. "Raven has told you about James right?" Clarke asked Octavia. "They are a thing now". "I know!" Octavia said happily. "It was about time! You deserve so much to be happy Raven". Raven smiled. "Now we can double date! Now we just need to get Clarkey a date, and we'll make it a triple date". Both Octavia and Raven looked over at Clarke. "Or, are you becoming a nun? You have been single forever now".
Clarke looked at her friends, and said: "There might be someone.." Raven shouted; "Wait! What! Why have I heard nothing about this! Am I not your best friend!? Explain yourself Griff!" Clarke just smiled, got up, and said: "I'm taking a shower. It's getting late". "Yeah I should probably get home"; Octavia said. She hugged Raven and Clarke and went out the door.
Clarke was just finished showering, put on a shorts and tank top, and wrapped a towel around her hair. She walked out from the bathroom and was just about to head over to her bedroom when she heard someone saying "Hey". It was Lexa. Clarke blushed. Standing here with so little clothes on, and her hair in a towel. Oh no. "Wha.. why..how.." she couldn´t get the words out. But then she said "Hi". She tried to calm herself and smiled. "Just needed some work stuff from Raven. I wouldn't have bothered her if it wasn't really important". Lexa smiled. Raven came out from her room, holding a folder in her hand. "Here Lexa, hope you figure it out. If not, call me. " "Thanks Raven, I think I will be able to fix it now, just needed some of those files you had". Raven discovered Clarke standing there. "Done showering I can see", she said with a grin. "See you Wednesday?" Lexa said to Clarke. "Yep, Wednesday it is", Clarke smiled back, and Lexa walked towards the door. After saying their goodbyes, Raven closed the door, and turned around to Clarke who was still standing there. "Why are you red as a lobster?" Raven asked Clarke. Clarke didn't answer, just gave her a little look, then turned around, and walked toward her room. "Clarke! Is Lexa…" Clarke just turned her head a little bit, and said; "Yep", Raven let out a little happy scream, and wanted to talk about it some more. "Tomorrow Raven? Ok? I´m so tired" Raven agreed , said good night. Clarke went to bed smiling.
Wednesday finally came, and Clarke was so excited the whole day. Work went by so slow, she kept checking her watch every other minute. She could not wait to see Lexa again. When the night came, they hade agreed to meet outside the restaurant, and for once Lexa was there before Clarke. Clarke could see her standing there, as she was walking closer. And the closer she came, the faster her heart was racing.
"So, with clothes this time?" Lexa said with a smirk. "Haha", Clarke said, "Not my fault that you come to my apartment without me knowing. Did you figure the work stuff out?" "Yes, all good. It's so good to have Raven there, it's not always easy to be new. ", Lexa said while opening the door to the restaurant. They got a table by the window, and was sitting there, talking, looking out at the street, and eating some great food. "Wow, this place is really good. You have good taste Clarke". "I know", Clarke winked. Clarke's mind drifted of for a little second, going back to her talk with Raven yesterday, when she had spilled her feelings about Lexa. Clarke was afraid that Raven would think she was totally crazy, just knowing this girl for such a short amount of time. But Raven had said:" Sometimes you just know, you know". And Clarke knew. But, Raven also had been a little worried about Clarke getting hurt, since neither of them knew if Lexa was even into girls. "But if she is, I will guarantee that she is into you Griff", Raven said with a cheeky grin. "Because you are hot". "What?" Lexa asked, "what are you thinking about? You are sitting there smiling". Clarke came back to reality, and tried to figure out something to say. "I just remembered something funny I heard the other day, but it was something you kind of had to be there for". The evening went on, but eventually it had to end. It couldn't get too late either, since it was a work night. Once again they were standing outside of Lexas building. "Are you busy friday?" Lexa suddenly asked. Clarkes heart jumped. She pretended to think about it for a few seconds, because she knew that whatever plans she had, she would cancel to be with Lexa. "Nope". "Well, want to have some fun?" Lexa winked. Clarke nodded. "Cool. I´ll text you the details later then. Thanks for dinner. It was great". They stood there just inches from each other. Time stood still, at least for Clarke. "So, I guess I'll see you friday?" "Friday", Lexa said, they hugged, just a little longer than what Clarke normally would with someone she was just friends with. She smelled Lexas hair, she felt her soft cheek. She knew she just wanted to stand there forever.
