AN: I want to say thank you to those who followed and added to favorites! It means a lot to me 3
Octavia: What the hell… what did they do?
Clarke: just removed a book that was on my chest and turned off the light, no big
Finn: I'm sorry that was me
Bellamy: dude, that's creepy
Raven: Not as creepy as watching him
Octavia: did he do anything else?
Raven: Ugh…
Clarke: What? Finn what did you do?
Finn: Nothing
Raven: …
Clarke: Raven tell me
Raven: He didn't do anything else.
Clarke: Are you lying? I'm coming over because you just made me damn curious
Raven: No, I'm still in bed
Bellamy: If I know Clarke right, she's probably getting dressed and will be at your place in a few minutes
Raven: Exactly what I was thinking
Raven put down her phone and waited for her friend to come. She was just in her sports bra and panties but didn't care if Clarke saw her in it. They were best friends, she could have walked in the apartment naked without caring.
"Raveeeen!"
Raven sighed, getting prepared for what she was going to tell Clarke. It really wasn't a big deal that Finn kissed Clarke's forehead. Well… it was kind of creepy.
"Raven. Tell me" Clarke jumped in Raven's bed, pulling the cover over herself. She had just changed to a white crop top, black sweatpants and a black cardigan. She had put her hair up in a messy dot.
"okay don't freak out" Raven prepared Clarke. "Last night, Finn and I wanted some donuts so we went to your place. We didn't think you were sleeping, it was only 9 pm. I looked for the donuts but when I called for Finn he was upstairs… in your bedroom. I don't know if it was creepy or cute but he removed the book from your chest and kissed your forehead. Then he turned off the light and walked away…"
Clarke was speechless. She too, didn't know if it was creepy or cute. "Is he still…?"
"In love with you? Yes, I think so. But I talked to him yesterday, he knows you and Lexa are a 'thing' and that he would leave you two alone to be happy. I promise you, he won't do anything stupid" Raven promised her friend. Clarke crawled up next to her friend and leaned on her shoulder. "I hope I'm not hurting him"
"You wouldn't hurt anyone. Not even your enemies" Raven hugged her best friend. Loving this moment where adults like them could still be this close to each other. Clarke told Raven that she was going to have lunch with Lexa. She told her that it was a lunch date. Raven was happy that Clarke was dating again.
"No, you need to read those papers instead. Forget the others, they don't matter anymore, just take these papers and tell me what you think. Okay?" Lexa handed Costia the papers. "And tell Luna she has to call Roan from Azgeda company"
Costia wasn't moving. She sat sill in the chair and stared at Lexa. Lexa looked up from her computer and tilted the screen a little down. "Costia?" Lexa asked to wake her up. "Costia are you okay?" She asked again, but this time concerned.
"Yeah" Costia got up and held the papers until her chest and walked out looking for Luna. Lexa only frowned to herself. "Weird" Costia was acting weird. Lexa closed her computer and followed her. "Costia, wait up!"
The girl turned around and looked down at her shoes. "Yes" she looked up as Lexa was in front of her.
"Cos, is something wrong? If it is you can tell me?" Lexa asked worried, not caring about that they were standing in the large hall and any office door could open any time. When she was at work, she had to put on a new face and be bold. Costia shook her head. She sighed and opened her mouth.
"Something wrong?" Anya asked as she carried tons of maps and papers out of her office. She shut the door with her foot. "Everything is fine" Costia smiled and offered to help Anya with carrying some of the maps. They walked together to the elevator, leaving Lexa confused in the hall. She watched them as they got in the elevator and small chatted.
Was Costia hiding something? And most important, does Anya know? If Costia didn't want to share it with Lexa then the only thing she could do was to wait for her to come.
Just like old times, she was at Café Niy. She got there 40 minutes before she was going to. go. She had grabbed her book from home and cuddled up on the couch in the corner of the café. She thought it was probably okay if she rested on the couch since there was no one in the café right now.
"Hey, stranger" Ally came with a smoothie to Clarke. "Look, we are making ten different smoothies and this is one of them"
"Hey, Ally" Clarke accepted the green smoothie and tasted it. "oh my god, this good! How did you know I like green smoothies?
"Niylah" Ally smiled. "We are putting them on the menu later, you should come and taste some of them later, I'll even pour them in small cups for you"
"Yeah, I can stop by. Can even bring my precious book" Clarke said and took another sip of the smoothie.
"It was nice to see you again, enjoy your smoothie and book" Ally lightly waved her hand and walked back to the desk.
Clarke kept reading her book and drinking her smoothie. Twenty minutes had passed and she was still curled up in the couch, reading. She had finished her smoothie a long time ago. When she was about to start on reading another page, her phone buzzed.
Mommy: Hey, baby. Want to come by and grab a cup of coffee?
Clarkie: I can't I'm at café Niy
Mommy: Oh, I can meet you there
Clarkie: I'm sorry, I'm leaving in ten minutes
Mommy: oh, want to come to me later then?
Clarkie: I can't… I'm having lunch with someone
Mommy: oh, okay. After your lunch, will you come and have coffee?
Clarkie: Yeah, I guess I can stop by then
Mommy: great! See you soon
Clarkie: See you… Is it something special you want to talk about?
Clarke kept waiting for an answer. It said that her mom had received and seen the message, but she obviously hadn't replied. She looked at the clock and it was time to order the sandwiches. She walked over to the counter, Niylah would usually be working by this time and she was.
"Hi, Niylah" Clarke smiled. "the same as last time?" Niylah asked. "Yes, but instead of coffee, could I get the green smoothie Ally gave me?" Clarke asked, hoping she could order it since it wasn't on the menu just yet. "Yeah sure, so two sandwiches and two green smoothies?"
Clarke nodded and went back to the couch to put her book in her purse. Just a few quick minutes later, she got what she had ordered. She happily walked out of the café and drove over to Lexa's office.
She didn't let Lexa know she was in the building, thinking it would be nice to surprise her. She met Luna on her way to Lexa's office, chatted a little with her and then walked over to Lexa's office.
She had lightly knocked on the door. "Hey!" Lexa greeted the blonde with a hug. "Hey, I hope you don't mind but at café Niy they are going to put smoothies on the menu and green smoothie is one of them. I love green smoothie by the way. So, I bought green smoothie instead of coffee" she handed Lexa it and the sandwich.
"I don't mind, I actually love green smoothie too" Lexa took a sip of it. "mmm…! This is indeed really good"
Clarke cutely laughed at Lexa and started eating her sandwich as they sat bedside each other on the leather couch. The two girls began eating and talking. They talked about how Lexa had been able to hire people so that she could go off work earlier. Clarke told Lexa about Finn and Raven last night at her house and that a few friends of here have a spare key. Just in case an emergency. Lexa laughed and thought needing donuts was an emergency. She also told Clarke that she must have really trust in her friends to give them the spare key to her own apartment. A few moments had passed, the girls enjoyed their company.
A knock made itself heard and Clarke could only smile to Lexa as she rolled her eyes and asked who it was. "It's Costia" Lexa swallowed and gave Clarke an apology look before she walked to the door. Costia of course didn't see Clarke behind the door. "Hey, do you want to grab a quick bite with me?"
Lexa pushed the door against the wall so Costia could see Clarke. "I'm sorry, I'm having a lunch date with Clarke" Clarke smiled at Costia, trying to get a smile back but she didn't. As Lexa turned around to face Clarke and see how she was doing, Costia bitch looked at Clarke. She had to swallow hard and look away, didn't say a word to not cause any drama.
Costia told Lexa that Luna had called Roan from Azgeda company and that his mother had arranged a meeting tomorrow. "Tomorrow?" Lexa's eyes widened.
"Yeah, it was either tomorrow or about four months" Costia didn't change her face expression. It was the same boring, not caring face.
"That bitch knew I had a meeting with Trikru and Skaikru company tomorrow, she loves seeing me busy" Lexa had a little glint of hate in her eyes.
"Are you still mad at her" Costia asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Of course, I am! I can't fucking forget what she did! It's fucking unforgettable" Lexa almost shouted as her hated words flew out of her. Lexa was angry, so angry. Angry with Nia.
"Let it go" Costia walked away.
Clarke sat there and was a little confused. "What's unforgettable?"
Lexa sighed. Thinking about the time Nia was more around here to do her business. She wanted to take Lexa down but looked at Costia as a target because she knew Lexa had a thing for her. That bitch fucking took Costia as a hostage and locked her up in a shitty basement for a whole week. She only got prison food once a day and was questioned by Azgeda company that tried to make her tell the secrets behind the coalition and Lexa's secret.
Azgeda had wanted to take over the Coalition and Lexa's position for a long time, but to be close, was to join the coalition. It hadn't just been better with Lexa leading them but it had also been a lot better because Lexa transferred money to them every month to help them stand on their feet. She also helped them with work and other stuff. But their 'need' to be the leader of the coalition was bigger than needing Lexa's help and friendship. They wanted to become the new leader.
As for Lexa to give up her position and give it to Nia, 'the queen', current leader in Azgeda company. Nia would give Costia back to her. Nia had sent Lexa video of Costia getting tied and beaten up. How Costia didn't say a single word, just to protect Lexa and her people. Lexa always had admired Costia for that. For doing everything for her people, even though if it means she has to go down. She will.
Lexa did not want to give Nia her position but she did not want Costia to suffer anymore either. She had sent police over there to help Costia and Nia got of course arrested. But that rich bitch didn't have to go to jail because of her good ass lawyer.
Since that day, Lexa had 'hated', yeah hated was a strong word but that's what she was feeling for Nia. Hate, and only hate. She had wanted to kick them out of their coalition but knew better to not do it. Lexa had to be the adult and let them be, her company didn't have to lose their job just because of Nia.
"Lexa?" Clarke touched Lexa's hand. "What's unforgettable?"
"Nia, do you know who she is…? She's from Azgeda company" Lexa asked.
"Yes" Clarke swallowed discreet.
Now Clarke was the one dreaming away. Dreaming of Nia who had taken Clarke and her precious friends to hostage. They were locked in a basement for a whole month, maybe more. They were brutally taken care of. They've got scars and all that. After they had escaped from the basement they called the police and got Nia arrested. But as you know, Nia got an excellent lawyer. Clarke was afraid of people seeing her scar on the wrist, but she would normally say it happened when she was taken as a hostage by Nia. Only her closest friends and family knows the truth.
"I've been in a few meetings with her" Clarke nodded. She didn't lie, she had been in a few meetings with her. Clarke wasn't ready to share the story with Lexa just yet.
"I love this smoothie!" Lexa finished it and wish it could be re-filled.
"Ally, from Café Niy, actually asked me if I wanted to stop by later, they were putting up different smoothies on the menu, including the green one. Why don't you come with me?" She looked at Lexa who was beamed. "Yeah, I'd love to. What time?"
"I'm going to visit my mom after lunch, and you probably want to relax a little when you get home, so what about five or six pm?" Clarke suggested and smiled at the brunette. She finished her smoothie and curled the sandwich paper and pushed it down the empty smoothie cup.
"Six pm is fine" The brunette did the same as Clarke. Clarke told the brunette that her mother had moved to Octavia's neighborhood, that was only five minutes away from here. Clarke lived further in the big-city while Lexa lived a few blocks from the end of the big-city. As usual, a knock made itself heard. "It's Anya" she let herself in.
"Lex, I'm video chatting with mom. She wants to talk to you!" Anya sat beside Lexa, pushed the screen close to her face. "Oh, hey Clarke" Anya smiled at Clarke as she noticed her sitting beside Lexa. Clarke smiled and enjoy the moment of the two sisters video chatting with their mother. "Bonjour, Lex. We miss you so much! How come you don't call us anymore?" The women with brown hair asked. "I called you last week" Lexa chuckled, causing Clarke to chuckle too.
"Who's that? The blonde" The brown-haired woman asked as she heard the 'extra' chuckle and noticed the blonde hair appeared a little on the screen. "That's Clarke" Anya introduced her and turned the phone a little so her mother could see Clarke's face. "Bonjour" the brown-haired woman greeted. "Bonjour, madame" Clarke greeted back. A little happy she took French classes back in high school. Anya turned the camera back to herself. "Clarke and Lexa are dating" she smirked at her mother and turned the camera back to Clarke and Lexa.
Lexa's eyes widened, she turned around and faced her sister, wanted to hit her so bad but she didn't because Clarke was here. "Really?! How wonderful! Lex, why didn't you tell me?" Her mother almost jumped off the chair. Lexa rolled her eyes and smiled at Clarke. Clarke was beaming at her. "I'm telling you now, I'm dating this beautiful blonde" Lexa took Clarke's hand.
Clarke was surprised. Was she introducing her to her mother? They have only been on one/two dates and two lunch dates, but still? Wasn't it a little early? Clarke didn't mind, she thinks it was sweet of Lexa to introduce her to her mother. Clarke only introduced people to her mother when she thought they were the one. And telling her mother who she was dating was a big deal.
"oh Lex, this is wonderful news! I wish I could give you a hug right now! Oh please, you have to come to France and celebrate Christmas with us!" Her mother pressed her hands against her cheeks. Lexa sighed. Anya once again turned the camera back to her. "I've told you ma, she can't come because she has an important job to do. Too much is going on these days, and she really can't handle it from over France" Anya sadly looked at her mother.
"Lex, if Anya comes to France, who are you going to celebrate Christmas with?" Angelica asked her daughter concerned, not wanting her to spend Christmas alone. Lexa looked around the room, avoiding her mother's eyes and shrugged. "I'm too busy anyways…"
"No, you're not! You got the whole day off! The day before and after too!" Anya told Lexa, even though she knew Lexa already knew this.
"Lexa. I just don't want you to be alone" Her mother said with a calm voice. Lexa looked sad, she swallowed and slowly rusty nodded.
Clarke felt bad for Lexa. "She won't be. You can spend it with me and my family" Clarke offered. Squeezing Lexa's hand, they hadn't let go of each other yet. Lexa looked surprised at Clarke.
