"I need a little loving tonight. Hold me so I'm not falling apart. A little but I'm hoping it might kick start. Me and my broken heart…" Lexa made the move. She leaned in for another kiss. Clarke kissed her back and gently touched Lexa's cheek. Lexa's hand was on the back on Clarke's head. The kiss became intense.
"Jesus, can you stop eating each other up! Clarke, your mother and stepfather are across the living room" Raven reminded her friend. Clarke buried her face in Lexa's neck and chuckled. Lexa held around Clarke and chuckled too.
"I hope you guys don't mind, but I invited Luna. She was just around the corner and is going to be here any minute" Raven carefully sat on the edge of the table and took a sip of her beer.
"No, that's cool" the blonde said as Lexa nodded. "Hey, wanna see my bedroom? I just got a new lamp" Clarke asked Lexa. Raven frowned. "are you trying to get laid or what?" she laughed, it caused Lexa to chuckle.
"No, really. I got a new lamp hanging from the ceiling, and love it! Come and see" Clarke jumped off the couch and grabbed Lexa's hand.
"okay" Lexa smiled as an idiot. Of course, they weren't going to leave upstairs without getting any attention on them. Octavia gaped and stared at Clarke, while Lincoln pointed both his thumps up at his boss. Finn looked a little down, but Clarke just ignored it. She didn't want to hurt Finn, but she has moved on. And It's been ages, he must move on too.
Abby had her eyes darted at the couple as they were walking upstairs. Yes, Clarke could have picked another timing to show Lexa the lamp, but for a weird reason, she just felt like she had to. "Tadaa" Clarke turned on the lamp and smiled at it.
"Wow, it's so cool" Lexa let out an impressed exhale, then her eyes slipped to look at her girlfriend. "so beautiful" she whispered at Clarke, but the lamp had her attention. Clarke must have thought Lexa was talking about the lamp, but really, she was talking about Clarke.
"What?" Clarke asked with a shy smile as she noticed Lexa was smiling at her.
"You're beautiful"
The blonde grabbed both Lexa's hand and smiled the most adorable smile ever. Hearing those words made her heart melt, and it melted even more because it came from Lexa.
"You make my heart melt. I don't know how you can be this sweet, and you make me so happy… I can't … I can't tell you how much or explain how I feel… I just really like you" Clarke shook her head with a smile. She thought she had just said something stupid.
"And I like you too, like a lot" Lexa smiled at her girlfriend, slowly leant in for a pleasurable kiss.
"What do you want for Christmas?" Lexa asked Clarke as she ran her hand through Clarke's hair.
"I already have everything. Family, friends, and you" The blonde looked up from their hands and straight in to Lexa's eyes. The brunette pulled the blonde in to a hug. Clarke wrapped her arms around Lexa's waist and leaned her head on her chest. Lexa held around Clarke's neck and shoulders, since she was a head taller than Clarke.
"Then I'll have to ask your friends" Lexa chuckled. Clarke closed her eyes and only smiled to herself. Lexa was so thoughtful. They kept on hugging and slowly moving their bodies a little side to side, till the blonde whispered. "Let's go down and get something to eat, the pizza will be here any minute" Lexa nodded and bit her lips. She was sure as hell hungry, and there was always a little room left for a pizza slice or two.
"There you are, what did you guys do up there?" Raven asked with a stupid smirk on her face. Clarke just shook her head and pulled Lexa's hand all the way to the table of food. Clarke took one slice of pepperoni pizza. "I love pepperoni pizza"
Lexa reached her hands to the jalapeno pizza, but quickly removed her hands from the slice as Clarke almost shouted "no!". The brunette frowned innocently at Clarke.
"I can't handle anything spicy, not even jalapenos. If you want to kiss me more tonight, you better not eat that evil pizza" Clarke confidently took a bite of her pizza. Lexa let out a short laugh and shook her head as she reached for a pepperoni pizza.
"Good girl"
"See how I'm willing to give up jalapeno pizza for you?" Lexa looked over the delicious pizza slices and back at Clarke with a pout.
"I see" The blonde placed a kiss on Lexa's cheek and lead her to the couch. It didn't take long till they had finished their slices. The doorbell rang, and they saw Raven running towards the door. Guess she was excited to see her future girlfriend.
"Hey lovebirds" Luna teased Lexa and Clarke as she entered the living room. The blonde sat right next to Lexa not leaving as much as a millimeter between them. She was leaning on Lexa's shoulder and tickled her girlfriend's palm.
"Hey, the woman who are soon to be called Raven's girlfriend" Lexa teased back. Clarke just laughed and hid her face in Lexa's neck.
Raven rolled her eyes and sat beside Clarke. "Shut up Lexa"
Luna just chuckled and sat beside Raven.
Bellamy clapped his hands together. "Hey, everyone! Let's play truth or dare!" he said with a loud voice as he caught everyone's attention.
"I love truth or dare" Clarke said with big eyes.
Everyone gathered around the table. It was enough places to sit on the couch, but apparently the floor was a much better place to sit. The "adults" were still sitting on the other side of the living room, not wanted to join their childish game. Bellamy was the one to start.
"Truth or dare, Finn"
"Dare"
"You have to kiss someone in this circle" Bellamy confidently raised his one brow.
Everyone knew who Finn wanted to kiss. And it was Clarke. But he didn't want the others to get hurt, if he chose her.
"Just choose one already" Raven waved her hands in the air. A little annoyed because he created an awkward silence.
He looked at Clarke, with a look that asked for permission to kiss her. Clarke shook her head and frowned a little. The brunette who sat next to her felt Clarke shake her head and understood what was going on.
Finn sighed. He just had to kiss someone now and not ask. Because he was a little afraid he would get rejected again. Before who got to think of the consequences, he quickly walked over to Raven. The girl didn't even know what was happening because she was talking to Luna.
Finn grabbed her both cheeks and carefully turned her face to look at him, and pressed his lips against her. First, Raven was calm. But I guess she realized Luna was sitting right next to her, and pushed Finn.
Everyone applauded, except the ones who knew their past. Luna couldn't get jealous, Raven was just a friend. She still got jealous, but she couldn't show it. "okay, Finn it's your turn"
The boy nodded. "Harper. Truth or dare?"
"dare"
Clarke smiled. She was amazed about her friends who always dared to pick dare.
"You have to make out with a girl"
"Wait what?" Monty laughed. "That will be fun to watch"
Harper nudged his shoulder and rolled her eyes. She looked at everyone in the circle and her eyes stopped as she saw Clarke.
"no way. Harper don't even think about it"
"Come on Clarke, it's just me" Harper opened her arms. Everyone tried to convince her to do it, but she didn't want to.
"What happened to you? You were like the queen on this game. When did you become such a pussy?" Harper teased.
Clarke just gaped and laughed at the same time. "I don't want to make out with you because I'm with Lexa. Imagine how uncomfortable she will be if she saw me make out with another girl. Like, how would you react if Monty made out with someone else?"
"Fine"
"but I'm not gay, so it's not a big deal" Harper tried once again.
"I said no, Harper" Clarke tried to say with a serious voice, but her face cracked up to the most obvious smile.
"Okay, Emori" Harper looked at her with puppy eyes. Emori let out a short chuckle and looked over at Murphy. He nodded.
The girl crawled down to the floor and gently laid a hand on Harper's face. She leaned in to make out with her. They continued making out as everyone was whistling and laughing.
"Maybe you're gay after all" Murphy teased his girlfriend. Remember that one time Emori had told him that she thought she was gay. That was before they were a couple.
Emori boxed Murphy in the chest. He laughed and wrapped his arms around his girlfriend, trying to calm her down.
"Where are you going?" Raven asked as Clarke got up.
"to my mother. Then to the bathroom" Clarke said. She bent a little down to whisper in Lexa's ear. "Don't kiss someone"
"I won't" Lexa kissed Clarke's lips, ignoring all the eyes they had on them.
"Hey Clarkie, having fun over there?" Abby asked her daughter as she was right beside her. Clarke pulled her mom into a hug. "Yes"
"Everything alright, honey?" She asked as Clarke hugged her.
"Just love you" She said before she walked to the bathroom. She left Abby almost teared up. It was like her girl was little again.
"That was so sweet" Indra smiled at Abby. "I know"
"Octavia doesn't show that much love to me anymore" Indra sighed.
"But Indra. She's an adult. And you know she loves you. She just has her own way to express that" Abby tried to make her understand that even though Octavia didn't say "l love you" as much as before, and hugged her every minute, didn't mean that Octavia didn't love her. "And when she hugs and tell you she loves you, don't you get happy?"
"Very happy" Indra smiled.
They kept talking for a few minutes. "Hey, mom?" Clarke asked as she entered the living room. She walked up behind her mother. Abby turned her head around and smiled. "Yes, baby?"
"Can I talk to you in the kitchen?" Clarke pointed with her eyes in the direction of the kitchen. She waited for her mother, then walked together to the kitchen.
"Everything okay?" Abby asked a little worried because she walked back and forth and bit her lip.
"mmm… yeah. Uhm, Lexa and I are going to babysit Isabella tomorrow, Emma's daughter" Clarke swallowed after she said the sentence. She was a little afraid of her mother's reaction. She didn't want her to get upset or sad.
Abby sighed. "You've been talking to her?"
"Yeah. And hanging out…" Clarke started. "I can cancel-"
"No. I think you should do it. But when are you planning to tell her who you really are? I think she will get mad if you she finds out. When she finds out" Abby corrected.
"I know. I will tell her… just not today, I really want to babysit beautiful Isabella and Emma seems to really like me. I think we will be great friends… sisters" Clarke let a small smile show.
"How is she like?" Abby leaned on the kitchen counter.
"She's full of spirit mom. Like, she looks so happy all the time, being positive… she's just giving me this feeling that she will understand why it's hard for me to tell her that I'm her sister" Clarke's face lit up.
Abby closed her eyes and smiled. Clarke felt the urge to hug her mother, and so she did. She knew Abby was a little heartbroken because Emma didn't want to meet her. She even hid Isabella away from Abby, as if she was protecting her daughter from a bad person. Yes, Abby screwed up by giving up on Emma. But she was 16 and she was just a kid. She didn't know better. It's a mistake she will have to remember for the rest of her life.
The two of them walked back to the living room. They had on music and everyone danced. Abby noticed Kane and Indra wasn't sitting by the dining tables, they must have gone upstairs to avoid all the noise.
Clarke enjoyed watching all her friends dance. But her attention was glued to Lexa. The girl was moving and shaking her hips, waving her hands and throwing her head in all directions. That's what a party lion looks like.
The blonde joined the others. They danced through a few songs, and was all exhausted afterwards. Everyone looked so tired of all the dancing. Finn suggested we could play never have I ever.
Clarke grabbed a beer box and opened it. Everyone who lived in the building took their own beer, except the ones who were driving home later. "Hey, can't you guys take a cab home? My treat"
"Yeah, one beer can't hurt" Luna grabbed a beer and took a sip as she opened it.
Lexa laughed. "She gets drunk easily" she said and opened one beer herself.
"Okay, I think everyone knows how the game goes. It's simple. One of us says something, and if you have done that thing. You drink. Understood?" Finn tried to explain. He was always a bad at explaining, but somehow, everyone understood it.
"okay, I'll start" Octavia said. "Never have I ever slept with a girl"
Laughter felt the room as Octavia took a sip, and Lincoln was shocked as fuck. All the boys and Luna, Lexa, Raven and Lexa took a sip. Clarke was not surprised at all seeing Lexa take a sip. The brunette was hot. Who wouldn't want to sleep with her?
"My turn" Finn raised his beer. "Never have I ever been with someone I regret being with. Like, dating"
Almost everyone took a sip, except Lexa. "Haven't you ever regret being with someone, Lex?" Clarke asked. The brunette had everyone's attention.
"No, not actually. I haven't been in many relationships, and there is really no one that I regret" She started. "Well, define regret"
"Regret. Like, if you wished you never got together because your friendship would be so much better and stronger now. And that it won't be awkward between the two of you. Like that" Luna tried to explain. She emphasized a few words, just trying to make her get a little hint of who she meant. Luna meant Costia of course.
"oh, I don't. I think It was worth it, what I and Costia tried. It didn't work out, and our friendship is kind of on hold. We may never be as good friends again, but I think it was worth it. I don't regret it" Lexa confidently said.
Clarke let her know she was supporting Lexa's opinion with laying a hand on the brunette's thigh. It must have tickled a lot because it sent shivers through Lexa's body.
Luna looked kind of sad with Lexa's opinion. It felt like Costia weren't 'friends' with them anymore. She never came to movie nights, sleepovers, dinner… not even smoothie dates… it's like she have completely forgot about them. I guess Luna was sad because she missed hanging out as a group. Anya, Luna, Lexa and Costia. I get it why she's sad.
Lexa looked at Luna. Searching for any tears in her eyes. The brunette knew well that the brown-orange haired woman hadn't taken this good. The little friend group was everything to her.
"My turn" Bellamy raised his beer. "Never have I ever used someone as one night stand" It wasn't a surprise that almost everyone took a sip. Especially Bellamy. He would sleep with four different women's in a week.
Raven was up next. Her eyes were darted at Finn. "Never have I ever got my heart broken" Raven, Clarke, Finn and Lexa took a sip. Raven took more than the others just to show them that she had been more heart broken than them.
Raven looked at little mad at Finn. Clearly, she thought back at that time Finn had cheated on her. It happened sometimes, that Raven would just get angry, upset, then sad. Because something reminded her of it.
Luna noticed the way Raven was boiling up. The way the girl breathed just made it hard to ignore. Luna placed her hand on Raven's and leaned her head on Raven's shoulder. Raven started breathing normal again.
"Do you want to talk about it?" Luna whispered in Raven's ear. Raven shook her head. "Maybe some other time"
Luna kept leaning on Raven's shoulders. She closed her eyes and just wanted to sleep. Her hands slipped to Raven's thigh that made the girl jump a little. Luna drew circles on Raven's thigh, it was obviously sending shivers through the girl's body.
"Want to go to my apartment?" Raven whispered to Luna.
