AN: I'm so sorry for the late publish, at first I had writers block, then I was living at my best friend's house for over a week, so I didn't get time to write. But I was writing as soon as I got home.
This chapter is a Clexa chapter. Hope you enjoy it! Please leave me a review and let me know what you think of the story so far.
Blondie: Hi! I'm sorry if we are going to be late, but we have been drinking so we can't drive, but we are planning on taking a cab. The problem is just that there's not a single cab here, but we can call for one.
Brunette: Oh! Taking the cab is not necessary! I will be happy to come and pick you up
Blondie: Really?
Brunette: It would be a pleasure
Blondie: Thanks! Hey, if you want, you and Luna can come over?
Blondie: You know, just hang out in my apartment before we leave
Brunette: Sounds fun! We will be there in 20
Lexa felt this excitement inside her. "Get ready! We are going to Clarke's place!" Luna laughed at Lexa as she ran to the hallway. "Come on! get dressed!" Lexa shouted at Luna, who was still in the living room. Luna got up and walked to the hallway where Lexa struggled with choosing between warm coats. She leaned on the door frame and crossed her arms.
"Relax my friend"
Lexa picked a coat and exhaled. She had a serious look on her face now. "Please Luna. I want to spend as much time as I can with her, every minute is precious. Please get dressed" Lexa said with a calm voice and tried to convince Luna to get dressed.
"okay" Luna smiled.
As Luna put on her coat and went through her bag looking for her gloves, scarf and a warm hat, Lexa was almost all dressed up.
"I can't find my gloves!" Lexa crawled around in the big wardrobe looking for her gloves.
"You can use mine?" Luna offered and handed Lexa her gloves.
"No, then you don't have any gloves" Lexa pushed the gloves away and looked at her watch. "Screw it! Let's go!" Lexa dragged Luna by the hand and out of the big wardrobe. They got in the car and drove over to Clarke's place.
Clarke was nervously walking back and forth in the living room, waiting for Lexa and Luna.
Raven gave Octavia a funny face and they laughed behind Clarke's back. Clarke frowned at them but at that time, the doorbell went off.
"I'll get it!" Clarke pointed at the door, causing the girls to chuckle.
"Hi …" Clarke smiled at Lexa. She didn't want to look away, Lexa was too beautiful. She couldn't resist her, they stared at each other for a moment until Raven came and broke the silence.
"Hi, I'm Raven"
Lexa and Clarke came back to reality. Luna was the one dreaming herself away. She shook her head and reached out her hand for Raven to shake.
"I'm Luna"
Clarke introduced herself for Luna, but Luna's eyes slipped back to Raven.
Lexa couldn't stop smiling this tight smile. She held her hand in front of her mouth so no one could see it, but Clarke already did. She pointed with her head in the direction to the living room and started walking towards it. The others followed her.
Luna and Octavia shook hands and shared a smile.
Clarke sat down on the big couch, in secret wanting Lexa to sit next to her, but Raven and Octavia sat beside her. Lexa sat down on the double couch, next to the big one, with Luna.
"Were you guys watching Orange?" Lexa pointed at the screen that had paused.
"Yes, we are going to watch it together from now on" Raven laid a hand on Clarke's shoulder.
Lexa nodded without knowing what to say.
Luna looked at how nervous Lexa was. "Clarke?" Luna begun. "Do you have some extra gloves? Lexa lost hers"
"Oh, yeah. Lots of them" Clarke got up. "Follow me". Lexa followed Clarke upstairs and Luna couldn't help smiling.
Lexa had to admit that she was looking a little at Clarke's ass and secretly admiring it. Clarke turned around and caught Lexa staring at her ass, but she didn't say anything. Lexa blushed. Clarke kept walking until they got to the end of the hallway. She opened the door for Lexa and turned on the light.
"It's a little messy in here"
There was a room divided in two, one summer theme, the other winter theme. On the winter side, there were different scarves sorted after color. Black gloves in different size, winter boots and a lot of unnecessary stuff.
"Why do you have all this stuff?"
"I have a lot of friends and we like to do activities together"
Lexa looked away from the winter theme side to the summer theme. She spotted a lot of beach balls and beach stuff, like chairs, tables, cooler, small parasol, frisbee and buckets. Lexa turned around as Clarke started talking.
"Give me your hand" Clarke reached her hand in front of Lexa, waiting for her hand. Lexa didn't know what Clarke was going to do, but she gave Clarke her hand anyways.
"I have to measure your hand" Clarke began and took Lexa's palm slowly against hers. As their skin touched, they both stared into each other's eyes. Clarke couldn't look away from Lexa's green sparkling eyes, and Lexa couldn't stop falling for Clarke's blue dreamy eyes. They stood like this for a moment.
"You have the same size as me" Clarke removed her hand from Lexa and looked after the right size of gloves.
Lexa took a moment to think about what just happened and smiled to Clarke as she handed her the gloves.
"Was that all? Do you need something else?"
"No" Lexa shook her head. "Thanks"
Clarke nodded and led Lexa out of the room. They had a little small talk about the snowman contest while they were walking. They saw Octavia laying on the couch and watched TV.
"Where's Raven and Luna?" Clarke asked Octavia and walked towards her.
"Outside on the balcony. They are probably making out"
Lexa and Clarke looked surprised. They sat down on the couch next to each other and watched TV with Octavia. They watched homeless dogs.
"Aaaawe …" Clarke held her hand in front of her mouth and felt bad those dogs. She pointed at the screen. "That one is cute. I want one!"
"A beagle"
Clarke looked a little surprised at Lexa. A little shocked that Lexa knew which dog breed it was.
"When I was 13, I was a dog walker" she explained.
Clarke laughed because she couldn't imagine the famous Lexa taking care of dogs and picking up their poop. She thought Lexa was that kind of person who didn't like animals and dirt.
Octavia noticed the way Clarke looked at Lexa and pretended like she had to go to the bathroom.
"Really?" Clarke laughed.
"Yes. I love dogs"
"Do you have one?" Clarke asked.
"No. I'm too busy with work, but I really want one"
"I was thinking of getting a dog on my own. Since I don't work that much anymore"
Lexa asked Clarke if she was getting a beagle and found out that Clarke really wanted to get one, she just didn't know where. As they were talking about dogs, Luna and Raven walked in to the living room holding hands.
Clarke smiled at Raven who was smiled to herself. "Hey lover birds" Clarke teased.
"Shut up" Raven let go of Lunas hand and walked closer to Clarke. "Come with me to the kitchen". Clarke got up and walked to the kitchen with Raven.
"What happened out there?" Clarke asked curiously.
"We were just talking right. She looked out of the window and said it was a nice view, then I told her that it was an even nicer view out on the balcony, we went outside and started talking. It got cold so we hugged, and neither of us wouldn't let go. At first, I was just hugging her to get warm, but then, I was enjoying it"
They shared a smile. It took only 2 seconds before Raven started talking again.
"Then I was slowly pulling myself away from the hug and stopped when we were face to face. I kissed her. And it felt… amazing! It was so beautiful!" Raven smiled. "And she kissed me back! Then she suddenly asked me out!"
Clarke gasped of excitement. "That's great Rae! I'm so happy for you!" Clarke hugged Raven.
"Enough about me. What's going on between you and Lexa?"
Clarke waved her hand in the air. "Nothing" she started thinking about what Raven had told her when they were in the elevator. "I have feelings for her, I don't want to, but she is this amazing girl… she keeps surprising me"
"Well, if she is this 'amazing girl', why do you don't want to have feelings for her?"
Clarke looked at the floor and let out a short laugh. "Because I don't think I can get her and I don't want to get hurt. And if I do get her, she's going to leave me one day…"
"Like Niylah?" Raven asked and touched Clarke's hand. Clarke nodded and a few tears fell on the floor. Raven pulled Clarke in to a hug.
"I don't know what I did wrong!" Clarke burst into tears. Raven tried to calm her down while she stroked Clarke's hair.
Lexa walked in to the kitchen and found Raven trying to comfort Clarke. "What's going on?" Lexa asked worried. Clarke recognized Lexa's voice and wiped away her tears.
"I have to go to the bathroom" Clarke walked away. Raven reached out her hand in the air trying to get Clarke to stay but it was too late.
"What happened?" Lexa asked worried.
Raven breathed in. "Lexa" She began and caught Lexa's attention. "Do you have feelings for Clarke?"
Lexa was a little shocked about the question, it came out of the blue. "What?"
"Just answer. Yes or no" Raven interrupted her.
"Yes…?" Lexa answered.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes" Lexa confirmed.
"Good. Because Clarke has feelings for you too. And I just wanted you to know, if your feelings are not real you walk away. But if you really have feelings for my best friend you stay and don't leave" Raven walked closer to Lexa to make sure she understands. "You are the first person Clarke have had real feelings for after… it doesn't matter who. I just wanted you to know that if you're just after a 'fling' you leave. But if you have feelings for her, you stay"
Lexa swallowed. "I will stay. I want this to happen. I really do. It's just that it's been a long time since I've had a relationship" Lexa felt her heart racing. "But I will try my best to be there for her"
Raven finally smiled to Lexa, proud. "Go get her" She pointed in the direction of the bathroom. Lexa smiled at Raven before making her way to the bathroom.
Lexa found a door that it said 'bathroom' on and slowly opened the door. "Clarke?". She found Clarke leaned her forearm on the sink and looked at herself in the mirror. Lexa walked slowly to Clarke and stood behind her. She looked at Clarkes reflection in the mirror.
"Are you okay?"
It took a few seconds before she answered. "Yes"
Lexa couldn't stop smiling at Clarke's reflection and thinking about her beautiful she was, even when she was crying. She had to do something to lift her face up.
"Hey, I know a pretty flower store, it has a lot of different flowers and the place is big. Maybe we can go there today?"
Clarke smiled.
"We don't need to go to the snowman contest, Luna, Raven and Octavia can do it together. Do you want to come with me?" Lexa laid her hands on Clarke's shoulders and nervously waited for an answer.
"That would be nice" Clarke almost blushed.
"And I bet we get hungry after looking for flowers. There's this great place 2 minutes away from the flower store, it's a restaurant with the most delicious lasagna ever! We can take it with us to my place and eat it there. Because I don't like eating in a room full of fancy boring strangers"
Clarke laughed at Lexa and realized she was totally different from what she thought Lexa was.
"First picking flowers, then lasagna at your place? Sounds like a-"
"Date" Lexa finished Clarke's sentence. They shared a smile.
"Is that a yes or a no?"
"I'd love to" They shared a smile with each other's reflections in the mirror and made their way back to the living room.
"Change in plans" Clarke clapped her hands together to get the girls attention. "Lexa and I are not coming with you to the snowman contest, but you three should do it"
"What about the sleep over?" Octavia asked a little sad.
"We can still have it O, I won't be home late. I will give you money for a cab" They were convinced. Clarke thought it would take longer time to convince them, but no.
"What are you guys doing?" Raven smirked.
Clarke and Lexa looked at each other. "We are going on a date" she smiled, looking back at her friends. "Before you say anything stupid, remember I will cut you" Clarke joked. They all laughed and started talking.
Raven and Octavia were of course telling Lexa about the most awkward scenes in Clarke life, like when she was jumping of a floating brew with them she lost her bikini top in the water. It just floated somewhere. Octavia and Raven couldn't stop laughing, so couldn't Clarke. She almost drowned because she laughed way too much while trying to swim after her bikini top.
Or the other time when Clarke was hanging out with Bellamy in his apartment, he had slept with some girl and Clarke found the girl's underwear and just threw it on his face and ran to her apartment to hide. Bellamy just opened the door and ran in, found Clarke and threw it on her face yelling 'Clarke you forgot this!' He didn't notice Abby standing a few meters behind her.
Lexa really enjoyed the stories that was told. Sure, it was cringe, but they all shared a lot of good laughs. Time had passed and it was time to go. Clarke gave them money for the cab to the snowman contest and back, even they said they could pay, Clarke insisted.
The five of them got in the elevator together and said goodbye outside the building.
Lexa pointed at her car so Clarke knew where it was. They got in the car and drove to the flower store, it was only 5 minutes away.
"We're here" Lexa unbelted herself.
"Wow, it's big"
"I know right! Wait till you see inside"
As Clarke entered the doors her breath was almost taken away from the flowers. There were flowers everywhere in every colors, size and shapes. Clarke noticed a whole section of her favorite flowers and walked over there to look at them. Lexa followed her.
"Lilies are my favorite" She whispered while feeling the flowers. "Which color do you like the most on lilies?"
Clarke looked up at Lexa and started thinking. "Light pink or white"
Lexa nodded and started looking at different lilies, she came back with white lilies that were light pink on the edges and handed them to Clarke.
"They are beautiful!"
Lexa smiled at Clarke who was admiring her new flowers. Lexa thought Clarke was so beautiful when she was smiling. She was beautiful in every mood. Lexa took Clarke's hand.
"come, I'm going to show you my favorite flowers"
Lexa led Clarke to the Orchids section. She smiled to herself.
"Orchids!" Clarke started touching them.
"The purple and white ones are my favorites!" Lexa picked two Orchids, one white and one purple. "Wait two sec" She said and walked over to get a cart. Clarke put her lilies in the cart and followed Lexa.
"Roses are also my favorite!" Lexa picked up dark red roses and smelled them before putting them down in the cart.
"I love roses" Clarke picked the same type of roses as Lexa picked.
They were walking around for a moment and looking at flowers and taking picture together with the flowers. After a while, their cart was almost full of flowers. They walked to the checkout counter to pay. Clarke offered to pay for the flowers, Lexa didn't want her to do it, but Clarke said it was a thank you for showing her this beautiful flower store. Lexa was finally convinced.
They walked happily to the car and carefully put down the flowers in the back.
"Are you hungry?" Lexa asked as they got in the car.
"Yes, looking at and after flowers really made me hungry"
"We could just drive to my place and order from there, so we don't have to wait in the car for the lasagna to get ready and then drive to my place" Lexa suggested. "I live like 15 minutes away from here"
"Yeah, I guess that would be better"
AN: So? What do you think? Luna and Raven are going on a date, I ship them a lot so they will have a future. Lexa and Clarke are going to Lexa's apartment to order some lasagna and have their date! How will the date go?
