Déjà vu
"Sasha, you need to fight this" Clarke watched as Lexa tried to get Sasha to come out of the flashback she was stuck in as Lexa placed her hands on Sasha's face this time moving her own head forward until their foreheads were resting against each other's, "I know you're in a dark place, but remember what I told you no matter what happens it's me and you forever, when you don't think you can pull the trigger I'll do it for you because that's what we do for each other one of us without the other isn't the same…." Clarke watched as Lexa paused as tears ran down her face she knew personally how close the two cousins were she couldn't imagine what it must feel like to see someone your so close to in this state "I won't leave you not ever, I've got you until the end….The Woods Twins remember not The Woods One…..You have to come back for me for your mum for mema and for Octavia…Fight it Lexi Fight" She continued watching Lexa as the tears ran down her cheeks uncontrollably seeing Lexa like this was upsetting for her she didn't know why they hadn't been together for about eighteen months and she'd moved on with Mitch although she was regretting it at this moment seeing as he was the main reason that Sasha was in the state she was in.
"Alexandra" The voice pulled her from her thoughts she knew it to be Sasha's voice "It happened again didn't it?" As she watched Lexa nod she suddenly felt like she was invading a personal moment she quickly turned her attention to Octavia who she noticed was intently staring at Sasha her eyes not moving, deciding not to interrupt Octavia's thoughts she turned her attention to Mitch kneeling down next to where her was on the floor clutching at his neck.
"I think that dyke broke my neck" Mitch said looking up at Clarke
"No she hasn't if she had you wouldn't be able to talk right now" Clarke bluntly replied to him she could barely stand to look at him at the moment but she had to do something to stop herself from looking at Lexa she had to stop those feelings from creeping back into her head and heart she didn't want to be the Clarke that first meet Lexa she wanted to be different she wanted to cover up how she felt about anything to be able to look Lexa in the eyes and completely lie about what she was thinking and feeling. As she ignored Mitch as he responded to her comment with his own he continued to ramble on talking some rubbish about dykes and Sasha being a psycho, as she continued to ignore him she couldn't help but think about how different Sasha was acting compared to her usual laid back self as she thought more about Sasha she couldn't help but think about Lexa as well thinking back to the first time she had officially meet Lexa and Sasha.
Saturday July 16th 2010
It was a usual Saturday night at Grounders Lexa and Sasha were working their usual shift as security for the manager as they had been doing for the last few years everytime they were on leave from the army the manager seemed to think that having two lesbian soldiers working the door would bring in more LGBT customers as well as keep the trouble down, it was a decent wage for a few nights work a week plus they finished an hour earlier than the other security and got to party inside the pub after drinks included provided they didn't go crazy drinking, which they never did. It was midnight and they were about an hour and a half away from finishing their shift when they both noticed Raven approaching them with the girl she'd been dating for a few months, tonight was the first time they were meeting her, as Raven was a few feet away they noticed the girl with her stop pulling her back eyeing each other they shook their heads this was the fifth time they had supposed to meet Raven's girlfriend, who they knew was called Anya, and everytime she bailed out on Raven just before getting to the door the first two times Raven had gone home with her but the other two she stayed with Lexa and Sasha who tried then spent the night cheering her up,
"I swear if she breaks Raven's heart I'll destroy her" Sasha stated looking from Raven to Lexa.
"You'd have to join the queue Little Cus" Lexa added she hated that Raven let this girl get away with hurting her she'd never seen Raven let anyone treat her like this.
They both watched as Raven and Anya arguing it seemed like Anya was trying to bail again and Raven was again trying to convince her to stay, Lexa looked at Sasha and raised her eyebrows when Sasha nodded back at her they both exited the section of ropes they were standing in as Lexa closed the rope behind her she looked to their colleague softly shouting "Mills, run it for a few minutes" Miller merely nodded and smiled at the two women before they walked off in Raven's direction. As they approached Raven and Anya the two women stopped arguing both stood looking at each other Raven looked at Sasha and Lexa they could both see how upset she looked at whatever had just happened between her and Anya. Lexa was the first to hug Raven squeezing her lightly as she did so as she let go of the hug Sasha swooped in behind her hugging Raven tightly lifting her off the ground as she did she softly whispered into Ravens ear "You ok?"
"I don't know" Raven whispered back returning Sasha's hug squeezing a little tighter than she usually would as she tried to stop the tears building in her eyes, she knew deep down that her and Anya was a bad idea but she thought she could make it work but it felt like Anya just didn't care enough.
"We've got your back no matter what happens ok?" Sasha replied sweetly
"I know, Thanks" Raven replied as they both released each other from the hug
The four of them stood there silent for a minute before Anya sent Raven an apologetic look as she turned on her heels in an attempt to walk away before she could take a step Lexa interrupted her "Your Anya right?" She asked she knew the answer but it was something to stop the woman in her tracks and make her turn around, Anya stopped taking a deep breath in she turned back around and looked at the slightly taller of the two women who had approached them the women she knew to be Raven's best friends, she'd seen pictures of them both but she didn't realise that they looked even more like twins in person than in the pictures Raven had shown her of the three of them together. As she studied the woman in front of her she noticed her look at Raven and then back,
"I'm Lexa, that's my cousin Sasha" The woman added pointing in Sasha's direction as she extended her hand towards Anya;
"Nice to finally meet you…...Raven's told me all about you both" Anya replied accepting the extended hand in front of her. She smiled as Sasha did as Lexa had done extending her hand towards her again she accepted the handshake smiling at Sasha, she knew Sasha was the one of the two cousins who was closest to Raven, she had been told by Raven how they dated for over a year when they were 15/16 years old and had lost their virginity to each other and seeing the woman in the flesh did nothing to dull her worries or jealously.
"Shall we head inside" Sasha said causing Raven to look at Anya nervously "It's honestly nothing to be nervous about we usually just have a chilled night a couple drinks and that's it nothing major" She continued trying to ease Anya's worries.
"Okay, sounds fun" Anya responded she wasn't worried about the drinking or meeting Raven's other friends she was nervous about meeting Lexa and Sasha they were the two people Raven told her most about the two people that protected Raven at any cost, and she knew that Raven hadn't told them she was actually married to a man, who just happened to be Raven's commanding officer. As she looked at Raven she noticed the massive smile that was on her face it made her smile just as massively, her smile didn't last long though when she watched as Sasha softly slapped Raven on the bum;
"Come on Ravishing Reyes we need to get back to work" Sasha said as she wrapped her left arm around Raven's shoulders as they walked to the entrance where the ropes to the club were located, as they walked past about thirty people that were waiting to be let into the club Sasha's eyes locked with a woman in the queue that made her remove her arm from Raven's shoulders spinning backwards until she was in front of the brunette who still hadn't removed her gaze from Sasha's, when she heard Lexa say something about meeting her back at the front door she shouted a quick 'Sure whatever' as she approached the women now noticing her friend she stopped in front of them, "Hi, I'm Sasha, I'm one of the Heads of Security here" She said as she extended her hand to the woman who took her hand quickly shaking it, the spark she felt when their hands meet was out of this world it was something she'd never felt before with any of the women she'd slept with or dated.
"Hi, I'm Octavia" The brunette responded unknown to her the same spark sensation she felt from their hands meeting was being felt by the women in front of her, she was brought out of her thoughts when she heard Clarke clear her throat next to her softly nudging her in the side as she did, "Um, Sorry" She said letting go of the Sasha's hand before looking to Clarke apologetically "This is Clarke" She stuttered out.
"Pleasure to meet you both, I just wanted to introduce myself" She honestly replied shaking Clarke's hand as she tried to work out if the two were a couple or not 'this is Clarke' she analysed in her head unsure what Clarke meant to the woman in front of her. 'She's probably taken' she thought to herself 'just my luck' breaking out of her thoughts she spoke "Anyway it was nice to meet you both I've got to get back to work…Maybe I'll see you both inside"
"You definitely will" Octavia smiled back at Sasha there was something about the woman that was so enticing to her and she didn't know what. She kept eyeing the woman as she walked to the front of the queue to two exchanging looks every few seconds after the woman was out of site she let out a small sigh then looking to Clarke she noticed her best friend was looking at her with raised eyebrows "What?" She innocently asked
"Could you be more obvious that you wanna jump her bones" Clarke answered softly giggling at her friend's actions
"What? shut up, I'm not being obvious"
"You totally are, O" Seeing Octavia's cheeks turn bright red from slight embarrassment "But I can only tell because I know you better than anyone" Jokingly nudging Octavia, after a few moments silence she added "Though I have to admit that she is pretty hot"
"She is, isn't she?"
"I just said so didn't I" Clarke paused as she peaked to the front of the queue looking at the woman next to Sasha "Although I think her sister is hotter" She smiled winking at Octavia before turning her attention to the people in front of her and Octavia.
"No way, she's way hotter than that other women" Octavia instantly replied biting her lip as she watched Sasha interact with the woman she worked with.
"So do you think we'll actually get in this week?" Clarke asked referring to the last two weeks they had queued up only to be hold that the doors were closing early due to the venue being at capacity. Clarke wouldn't mind but the only reason Octavia wanted to keep coming back to this bar was because her brother Bellamy worked behind the bar and she had a crush on the security guard they now knew as Sasha, and had since she first saw her three weeks' prior while visiting Bellamy at work.
"Of course we will" Octavia replied not taking her eyes off of Sasha who had looked in her direction their eyes meeting for a minute or two before one of her male colleagues began talking to her talking her attention away from Octavia. "Just keep the faith Clarke" She added as she turned her attention back to Clarke.
"Why do we have to go through this" When Octavia gave her an innocent look she shook her head continuing "Just ask her out then we can stop queuing for two hours to not get in"
"She'll say no; I have to scout her first so I can work out what kind of women she likes"
"Your overthinking this Octavia…Anyway how do you know she's gay?"
"Seriously, I have amazing gaydar for one Clarke and two my brother told me"
"Bellamy told you" When Octavia nodded her head she asked another question "How does he know if you didn't know her name until tonight?"
"Well apparently there's only two women that work as security here and they are both gay" Looking at Clarke who was looking at the woman who was messing around jokingly with Sasha smiling brightly as she watched them both. "You know what that means?" When Clarke looked at her the smile dropping from her face realising she'd been caught out "It means you can try your luck with your favourite security guard"
"Hardy Ha Octavia I was just watching the front of the queue" When Octavia looked at her raising her eyebrows and wriggling them at her, Clarke giggled softly relenting she knew Octavia wouldn't give in "Ok I was eyeing her up a bit" Octavia looked at Clarke breaking out in a massive laugh "Whatever it's not my fault she's hot as hell…. Must be a family thing" Clarke completed as she and Octavia began talking changing the subject from their respective crushes to anything put.
-THIRTY MINUTES LATER-
"SORRY EVERYONE BUT THE DOORS ARE NOW CLOSED…. THAT MEANS NO MORE ENTRY" Miller shouted as he walked down the queue informing all the waiting customers that they were now at capacity and were no longer accepting admissions to the bar/club.
Octavia and Clarke both listened to the announcement both felt deflated at the sentence, Clarke had been helping Octavia psych herself up to talk to Sasha and eventually ask her out. They began walking out of the queue via the way they had entered it following the people in front of them Clarke could see how upset Octavia seemed to be at not getting in "We'll get in next week O, even if we have to camp out ok?" Octavia nodded still feeling deflated she wasn't sure she'd be able to psych herself up next week this was the first week Sasha had actually talked to her.
Sasha removed the rope allowing herself to step threw it looking back to Lexa she looked at her almost asking if she should do what she planning "Go Sasha, Donte won't care" Sasha smiled at Lexa's words as Sasha began walking off she shouted to her "Just make sure you bring her cute friend along as well" Sasha turned around winking at Lexa she responded;
"Don't worry I've got your back cus" She finished turning around and looking into the crowd unable to see Octavia she sighed deeply she was about to walk back when she heard someone say Octavia's name, it was Octavia's friend Clarke who was talking to Octavia, 'Maybe Lexa's wrong and she is taken' Sasha turned around taking a few steps back to the entrance she had come from when all of a sudden she thought 'Maybe Lexa's right…..oh screw it' turning around she found Octavia again, her and Clarke had just exited the queue and where now heading in the direction the street took them she loudly shouted "OCTAVIA" The volume causing a few people to stop and turn thankfully two of the people were Octavia and Clarke, Sasha quickly jogged forward until she was in front of the two women "I was just wondering if you still wanted to come inside?" Octavia smiled brightly before looking to Clarke guiltily not knowing what to say, as Clarke went to speak she cut her off "Both of you" Looking back she noticed Lexa smiling watching her "My cousin told me not to come back without Octavia's cute friend, I think she fancies you" Clarke blushed "If you're not gay I can tell her or if you two are an item we can both back off" Sasha nervously rambled.
"You and your cousin don't need to back off, we are both gay and single" Clarke responded she knew Octavia was probably panicking inside not knowing what to say
"Awesome" Sasha smiled at Octavia brightly "So is that a yes to you both coming inside then?"
"Um, I'm not sure it's not really fair on anyone else" Octavia responded kicking herself instantly 'What are you doing you idiot? When a pretty woman invites you inside you go'
"Well technically letting you in is only me following my own rules" Sasha responded grinning massively
"Your own rules?" Octavia asked the smile on Sasha's face intriguing her
"Well I have a rule that when I meet a drop dead gorgeous woman and her equally pretty friend I never let them walk away without at least letting them inside the club" Octavia instantly smiled biting the corner of her lip slightly unable to speak "I'll even buy you a drink to help ease your worries and guilt"
"Well if there's a free drink in it for me then ok" Octavia responded beginning to walk towards the entrance of the club trying to control her nerves, Clarke and Sasha walked with her the smile on Sasha's face was breath taking but Octavia was trying to play it cool she didn't want to come across to egger "Plus it'd be mean to deny you the right to buy me a drink"
"Yeah it would" Sasha responded looking at Octavia who seemed to be getting even more beautiful everytime she looked at her, as they reached the ropes that marked the entrance as they reached the rope itself Sasha jumped in front of Octavia opening up the rope for her after letting Clarke in as well she closed the rope behind herself "Oh Ladies this is my cousin Lexa, Lexa this is Octavia" She said pointing to Octavia then she pointed to Clarke "And this is her cute friend Clarke"
"Nice to meet you both Ladies" Lexa greeted them gently shaking their hands, her and Clarke's handshake lasted a little longer than either of them intended just as Sasha and Octavia did they both felt a spark rush threw their bodies at the contact they made after a minute they both released the others hands.
"Did you say your cousins?" Clarke asked looking between them both when they both nodded she asked "Are you sure? Cause you look insanely alike you could be sisters?" Clarke blushed as she asked the question of course they'd know how their related
"I don't know, are you sure we're not sisters Lexa?" Sasha asked Lexa jokingly she was used to this question not in those words but she knew Clarke meant no harm by it.
"Oh I don't know I'll have to check with our mama's first" Lexa responded playing along with Sasha, seeing Clarke's red cheeks she added "Don't worry Clarke, we get it all the time we'll let you off but only cause you're so beautiful"
"Smooth Lexa real Smooth" Sasha laughed earning her a playful slap from Lexa
"It definitely was" Clarke responded her eyes connecting with Lexa's, they were looking at each other ignoring the other two women with them when Octavia interrupted them;
"Come on Clarke, let's go inside and get a drink." Pulling Clarke by her arm inside opening the door for her, as the door was about to close Octavia called out "Maybe we'll see you later ladies"
"You will" Sasha responded as the door closed. "Your totally in there Lex" When Lexa smiled at her not saying a word she added "I'm so using that line in the future" She laughed looking at Lexa who lightly laughed along with her.
Two Hours Later
Lexa and Sasha had officially finished work over an hour ago and had immediately made their ways inside removing the top half of their suits they threw them behind the bar as usual, making their way throw the crowd of three hundred people plus people they found Anya and Raven sitting in the corner at their usual table they sat down opposite the two women who both seemed to be in a more comfortable than they had been at the beginning of their night. As they sat down Sasha reached over and grabbed Raven's beer taking a massive sip of it. Raven looked at her raising her eyebrows at her best friend;
"Need that did you?"
"She's nervous" Lexa answered getting a 'really' look from Sasha "What you are?"
"You never get nervous" Raven responded
"Yeah well she met someone earlier and wants to ask them out" Lexa again answered for Sasha.
"NO WAY" Raven shouted in response her mouth hanging open in shock, Lexa looking at Raven and nodding her head in agreement
"What's the big deal?" Anya asked not sure why it was a big deal.
"She NEVER asks women out" Raven quickly responded seeing Sasha shake her head at Lexa and Ravens comments and actions, she could also see the tiniest blush appearing on Sasha's cheeks it was undetectable to everyone else but Lexa and Raven who knew what to look for…. "Come on then spill tell me everything"
"There's nothing to tell Rae" Sasha quickly responded.
"Come on tell me we're besties I can tell when you're lying" Raven quickly retorted wiggling her eyebrows at Sasha who giggled slightly at the action
"Ok Fine…Her name is Octavia"
"What does she look like?"
"A little shorter than me, Dark brown hair, dark green eyes…." She paused realising that she was being way too obvious about how much she liked Octavia she never remembered any of this with anyone else. She looked behind her, looking around the club she scanned for Octavia she felt slightly deflated when she saw Octavia at the bar standing closely to a tallish black female who Sasha had to admit was sexy as hell she could tell that the woman was flirting with Octavia and it looked as if Octavia was enjoying it so much she was flirting back her hand on the women's arm as they giggled softly. "But it looks like someone beat me to it" When Raven looked at her confused she pointed to where Octavia was.
"Dude I'm sorry" Raven said offering her whole beer to Sasha who took it and began drinking it.
"Sorry Twinsy" Lexa said wrapping her arm around Sasha's shoulders pulling her into a gentle side hug.
"No sweat…. Plenty more fish in the sea right" She smiled into the gentle hug.
Lexa realised the hug seconds later her eyes turning to Octavia she couldn't help but wonder where Clarke was, as if by magic or some other power as Lexa thought about Clarke she appeared in the corner of her eye she was watching Octavia and this women flirt shaking her head not being able to stop herself Lexa stood up "I'm gonna get a drink" She explained to the other three women she walked straight to were Clarke was standing, Clarke noticed her approaching waved softly at Lexa, she watched as Clarke adorably straightened out her clothes as she got closer to her, as she finally reached Clarke she smiled brightly softly saying;
"You been abandoned by Octavia already?"
"Yeah" Clarke responded smiling brightly at the brunette, she looked over to where the brunette had emerged and could see Sasha sitting at a table nearby nursing a drink, "She's only flirting with that women to make your cousin jealous" Octavia had thought it was a brilliant idea to make Sasha jealous by flirting with someone else but Clarke warned her it was a bad idea still she ignored her advice and did what she wanted to. "I told her it was a stupid idea" As she looked at Lexa she couldn't help but smile something about the brunette was so enticing and amazing at the same time "But that's Octavia" She felt that a change in subject was needed for them both as she saw the conflicted look on Lexa's face. "Anyway let's talk about something else?"
"Like?"
"I don't know tell me about yourself…. Do you like working security? How are you and your cousin identical?" Clarke paused as the last question crossed her mind, unable to keep it in she asked it anyway "Are you single? You know those kind of things" She sighed in relief when Lexa continued to smile
"Well One I hate doing security but it's extra money, Two Nobody knows how were identical, and yes we have different fathers before you ask" Clarke smiled at Lexa she was actually thinking that question, how did Lexa manage to read her so well they'd only met hours ago but everytime she looked at or thought about her, her heart reacted like it had known Lexa for years "And Three…..Yes I am single" Lexa completed smiling at Clarke unable to control her hearts fast beat, pausing for a second she noticed her cousin and Raven heading onto the dancefloor, as the two began to dance together she moved a little closer to Clarke softly speaking into her ear "Do you wanna go outside we can talk more?" Clarke simply nodded her head causing Lexa to take her hand guiding her to the garden of the pub.
Thirty minutes later Clarke and Lexa were alone in the garden sitting side by side on a bench in the garden still talking they had been talking about the army for the last ten minutes after Lexa told her that she was in the army and had been for the last two years along with Sasha, they talked about how the two cousins had ended up getting the same scores on all their tests as well as ending up in the same unit, Clarke then revealed that her father was a Sergeant in the army and that he was looking to transfer to LA so he could spend more time with Clarke they both found it surprisingly easy to talk to each other about their personal lives, as they heard the bell ring out signalling closing time they both stood up, standing in front of each other each anticipated the others move Clarke was the first to say she'd better go, as she went to walk passed Lexa, Lexa caught her wrist gently turning her around until they were hip to hip and face to face after a second or two Lexa breathily said "I have been dying to do this for the last few hours" With that sentence she slowly closed the gap between hers and Clarke's lips giving the blonde plenty of time to push her away or pull back as their lips connected they both felt a massive rush of energy shoot through their bodies, the kiss staying sweet and innocent as Lexa brought her hands up to either side of Clarke's jaw, after a few minutes Lexa finally managed to slowly pull herself out of the kiss.
Neither women spoke after the kiss had ended they both stood looking at the ground biting softly on their bottom lips, they were both brought out of their post kiss thoughts when Bellamy entered the garden walking up to them softly saying hey Lexa he looked to Clarke "Hey Clarke, we're closing up now would you mind taking Octavia home? she's pretty hammered" Clarke instantly felt bad for not looking after her best friend and instead thinking of her own wants.
"Yeah of course she can crash with me"
"Thanks" Bellamy smiled turning to walk away from them both he knew that he's interrupted something between the women and wanted to leave them to it, Clarke was like family to him and he was good friends with Lexa and he thought they both deserved to be happy and if that was with each other that was only a good thing for him, before he reached the garden door he remembered the message Sasha asked him to pass on turning his head in their direction he relayed the message "Lex, Sasha said she'll meet you at home and not to worry" Lexa thanked him softly, with that he walked inside and began cleaning and closing up the bar with the other staff.
"I better get Octavia home" Clarke said as they both began walking back into the bar "Can I get your number?" Clarke was suddenly nervous at Lexa's answer so quickly added "Unless this was a one-time kiss kind of thing"
"A one-time kiss kind of thing?" Lexa asked raising her eyebrow at Clarke causing the both of them to laugh softly, after a second Lexa pulled her phone out handing it to Clarke she said "I probably should have asked for your number before kissing you but in my defence I'm a little impulsive sometimes" Pausing as Clarke took the phone from her she smiled brightly as she entered her number in Lexa's contacts, then handing the phone back to Lexa she giggled when she saw Lexa save her number under the name Cutie Pie "Maybe I'll text you tomorrow and we can maybe go out next week sometime if you're not busy"
"I'll make sure I'm free" Clarke responded smiling as she looked to the bar she saw Octavia slumped on the floor from the way she was slumped Clarke could tell that she was drunk, looking to Lexa she said "I better go look after her, I'll see you soon" When Lexa nodded her head she headed in Octavia's direction the smile on her face getting wider as she thought about the possibility of seeing Lexa in the week.
PRESENT DAY
As Clarke smiled at the memory in her mind she didn't realise that Lexa had approached her and Mitch, she was snapped out of her thoughts when Lexa gently put her hand on her shoulder gently squeezing, "Clarke are you ok?" She worriedly asked causing Clarke to snap out of her own memories and thoughts,
"Um yeah I'm fine" Looking at Lexa's face it was obvious she was worried about something "What's wrong?"
"When Lexi comes out of the bathroom would you mind looking at her neck, I wouldn't ask just it looks nasty and she trusts you and she won't go to an army doctor or a normal doctor because they'll have to report it to the army and that'll be put in her rec-"
"Lexa, It's ok I'll take a look at her neck when she comes back out" Clarke responded she couldn't deny that this was the side of Lexa she always loved the most the one that put her family first always no matter what. Clarke looked around avoiding looking into Lexa's eyes when she didn't see Octavia she asked "Where's Octavia?"
"She followed Sasha into the bathroom, Bellamy said to let them talk" Lexa explained she knew Clarke would worry for her friend honestly she was a little worried for Octavia herself she knew Sasha wouldn't willingly hurt Octavia but she'd only just recovered from the flashback she could easily have another one all it would take is a trigger. She walked towards the bar she took a seat on one of the bar stools, after a few minutes she watched as Clarke walked up to the bar and asked Bellamy for a first aid kit which he quickly retrieved from the staff room handing it to Clarke, then Clarke headed in the direction of the ladies' toilets she quickly called "Clarke Where are you going?"
"To check on them both" Clarke quickly responded, the truth was she needed something to distract her from the renewal of her feelings for Lexa that she was feeling, from all the memories flashing in her head.
"Give them some more time, Sasha won't hurt Octavia" Bellamy called to Clarke he knew Clarke was probably worried but he also knew his sister and she could handle herself well enough plus she knew how much Octavia had missed Sasha and a few minutes was the least she deserved to try talk things our even if nothing good came out of it Octavia had made her decision.
"Sasha was bleeding a lot I need to make sure she's ok" Clarke lied heading to the toilet door she knocked before she entered.
-Friday 10th September 2010-
It'd been two whole months since all four women had met and since Clarke and Lexa had shared their first kiss, after that kiss they had gone on two dates every week spending all that time together only made their connection even stronger but neither of them was ready to take their relationship to the next level and actually sleep together they wanted to wait until they were completely sure that they wanted each other and knew were the stood with each other. Though the more they saw each other the harder it got to contain theirselves their kisses had become more and more passionate the more time they spent together so they had taken to hanging out with Octavia and Sasha instead of risking being alone due mainly to the fact that there had been more than one occasion where both of them had found their hands wondering the others bodies.
After talking one night they decided that they could but their energy into helping Sasha and Octavia finally get together instead of into fighting their urges for each other. They had thought of numerous ways they could help them both see they were into each other but Octavia and Sasha were as stubborn as each other neither wanted to make a move on the other after what had happened on the night they first meet. They had thought about locking them both in a room until they worked it out but agreed that both women would probably punch them if they did that and neither of them wanted to be punched anytime soon. They had finally decided that they would give the two no other option than to talk to each other but they had decided that it should be on a Saturday night when Sasha was working an extra hour on the door, Lexa knew that Sasha had been covering for Miller doing the extra hours so that Miller could spend more time with his father before he shipped out for active duty she didn't question why he'd be spending time with his dad at night she needed the money and didn't feel much like partying at the moment, they decided that they'd get Octavia outside somehow get their phones and keys from them and then look them outside on the front door neither of them would be able to run away without their phones or keys.
And tonight was the night their plan was in full motion they had managed to get Octavia's jacket and hide it from her while she had gone to get a drink, Lexa had managed to get Sasha's keys from her but her phone was a different story, she'd been thinking about how to get the phone when it popped into her head it was so simple she kicked herself for not thinking about it sooner she told Clarke the plan and Clarke did her bit getting Octavia to come out side with her for some fresh air as Lexa popped her head through the front door noticing Octavia and Clarke standing on the pavement she looked to Sasha who turned to looked at her after hearing the door;
"Sash, Can I borrow your phone I've run out of credit and need to call Mema" She asked softly and convincingly
"Sure" She responded pulling her phone out her pocket and handing it to her cousin "Guess you've been texting lover girl too much huh"
Clarke looked towards Lexa seeing the phone in her hand and Lexa nodding at her she quickly ran through the front door as she got in Lexa quickly locked the door the noise was the only thing that made Sasha and Octavia think something was up, Sasha walked up to the door and tried pushing it a couple times before she realised what was going on "They've locked us out" She stated her facial expression showing how unimpressed she was.
"What you're kidding me right?" Octavia asked moving up to the door pushing it a couple times "Why would they do that?"
"Who knows" She lied. When she noticed that Octavia was shivering she pulled off her black hoody she handed it to Octavia "Here wear this, There's no telling how long we'll be out here" When Octavia just looked at the hoody she continued "Look I know you might dislike me but it's not worth getting sick over" When Octavia finally relented taking the hoody Sasha went back to the way she had previously been leaning on the wall that was located right next to the door of the pub it was the perfect spot to lean but also keep an eye on the door in case anything happened. She had been leaning for about Five minutes when Octavia moved to her right side leaning against the wall.
"Thanks" Octavia softly said, after a few minutes she decided to finally talk to Sasha she couldn't stand the silence and she knew that small talk was out of the question "I don't dislike you…. Actually the opposite" She honestly replied the whole problem with Sasha was that she made her feel things she hadn't felt before and she didn't know why or how but she knew that it scared the hell out of her.
"I thought you didn't like me" Sasha replied her eyes staying in front of her not wanting to look at Octavia afraid that looking at her would make her lose whatever confidence it was that was helping her speak at this moment in time "I mean you didn't take me up on that drink so I assumed you didn't like me back"
"I wanted to talk to you that night but I thought that flirting with that woman would make you jealous as well"
"As Well?"
"I saw you talking with someone and thought you changed your mind and flirting with someone else would make you like me again" When Sasha looked at the ground confused she added "The woman you danced with that night, the one you were grinding on"
"Raven?" She saw Octavia nod out of the corner of her eye "Raven's my best friend we always dance like that there was nothing sexual about it I promise"
"Really?" When Sasha nodded she continued "So we wasted two months on a miscommunication?"
"Seems that way yeah"
Octavia decided to be bold and brave and moved in front of Sasha their feet touching each other's slightly when Sasha didn't move or react she pulled back "Sorry I must have misunderstood that as well" When Octavia turned to walk away Sasha gently grabbed her by the wrist gently turning her around switching their positions then walking until Octavia's back was completely against the wall pressing their hips together until there was no space between them, "No you didn't" Sasha responded as she bit her lip, before she could even think about it she crashed her lips into Octavia's she was relieved when Octavia instantly kissed her back the passion in the kiss surprised them both, the spark they felt from the handshake revisiting their bodies this time around though it was more intense it felt like their bodies were on fire all the longing for each other evaporating as their lips continued to connect with each other's. They had been kissing for about five minutes when Octavia slowly pulled back she was finding it hard to keep her horniness in check as her lips meshed with Sasha's "I think we should let them know that their stupid whatever worked"
Sasha looked at her smiling brightly "They can wait…this is about us so we should maybe talk things out" Octavia nodded at the woman's words…
PRESENT DAY
It had been around thirty minutes since Clarke had left Sasha and Octavia to talk in the toilets once she had closed the door she decided that she had to talk to Lexa and face the difficult tension between them, it hadn't been as bad as she thought it was as effortless to talk to Lexa had it had always been. They had been chatting about all things that had happened to each other since they broke up Lexa had explained a little more about how Sasha got diagnosed with PTSD and Clarke told Lexa about how she met Mitch on base while visiting her dad at work. They were now talking about the odds of Sasha and Octavia emerging from the bathroom reunited they both agreed it was a no brainer they both thought the two should have never broken up, their conversation was interrupted when Mitch shouted "Fuck this I'm not waiting anymore I'm getting Octavia out here now" Clarkes eyes shoot to him seeing the beer in his head she realised he must have grabbed someone's left over beer and continued his drinking.
"Just leave them to it Mitch there's no rush" Clarke firmly replied to him
"No I'm bored and I want to go home"
"Then you go home and I'll wait for Octavia"
"No if I leave your coming with me, you are MY woman"
"Don't talk to her like that" Lexa interjected looking sternly at Mitch who turned to her unimpressed
"I'll talk to MY WOMAN anyway I want to"
"Then maybe you don't deserve for her to be your woman"
"Don't tell me what I deserve you stupid bitch" Mitch retorted stepping into Lexa a little more
"Look whatever your trying to do with all this…" Lexa motioned with her hand up and down Mitch's body "I'm not intimidated by any of it…I've face bigger and badder men than you and whipped their asses"
"I don't know who you think you are you fucking homo but I'm done talking to you…." Turning and looking at Clarke he mumbled "I'm going to grab that little faggot so we can go home"
"MITCH" Clarke shouted still shocked at his actions tonight "Don't call Octavia that it's not ok…just leave them to talk"
"Don't EVER tell me what to do…" Mitch angrily spoke as he pointed his finger in Clarke's direction walking towards her
"Look Mitch, whatever your name is… Just leave them to it they have a lot to talk about" Lexa said stepping in when Mitch angrily walked towards Clarke.
"Don't tell me what to do Lady" He shoved his beer in her face "I'll do what I want. Hell I might even smash this bottle over your little bitch dyke friends head again" Seeing the anger rise in Lexa's face he continued "It was really fun the first time so why not make it a pair" He laughed hard at his own comments
Seeing the angry look on Lexa's face Clarke stepped in front of her before she had a chance to say anything to Lexa, Mitch grabbed Clarke's arm pulling her out of the way. Seeing the man put his hands on Clarke was the final switch for Lexa who grabbed him by the shirt pushing him backwards until they hit a wall pressing her forearm into his throat the only image she could see was her little cousin laying on the floor blood seeping from her head. When Clarkes calls to Lexa to let go of Mitch went unnoticed and nobody else in the room stepped in Clarke ran to the ladies' toilets she knew there was only one person who could get Lexa to let go by force or not. As she stopped at the door she debated letting Mitch get hurt but when it came down to it she couldn't let that happen to him she did care about him after all maybe not as much as she should but she cared. Knocking on the door she anxiously waited for it to open.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
After a few moments later the door swung open revealing a flustered looking Sasha Clarke didn't have time to register Sasha's flustered look or what had made her look so flustered she just knew she had to get some help.
"Clarke w -"Before she could complete her sentence she was cut by Clarkes frantic words
"I need you to help me"
"What's wrong?" Octavia asked quickly moving to the door seeing the state of her friend
"Lexa's attacking Mitch…."
