Pale sunlight lit up the room as Clarke opened her sleepy eyes. It took her a moment to process where she was. Somehow, she had been so tired that she had passed out in Lexa's bed, and the other girl must have been too tired to care.

She looked over at Lexa. Without her haunted green eyes, her roommate actually looked peaceful. Her face was relaxed and her jaw was slightly open. A light snoring sound filled the room, and Clarke couldn't help but smile.

Suddenly, an uneasiness filled Clarke's stomach as she felt as if she were intruding on a private moment. She quickly climbed out of bed and crossed the room to her own. She needed to clear her head.

Waking up to Lexa was so different than waking up to Niylah after their one-night stand. It felt like coming home, and that was something that scared Clarke. Her roommate situation last semester had been hell. She couldn't afford to catch feelings for her new roommate. Not only would it ruin the blossoming friendship, Clarke didn't think her heart could take the rejection.

She got changed and quietly left the room for a walk around campus. Was she catching feelings for Lexa? There was no denying that the other girl was attractive. And there was something about her like gravity that pulled Clarke to want to take care of her.

As she rounded a corner, she almost bumped straight into Niylah. "Clarke!" Niylah exclaimed. "Good to see you."

"You too," Clarke replied. After their one-night stand last semester, the two girls had agreed that a relationship between the two of them wouldn't work, and they remained friends. "Hey, can I talk to you about something?"

"Sure," Niylah said. "Wanna come back to my dorm? You could meet my new roommate, Luna."

"Sounds good," Clarke agreed, and Niylah led the way.

Once inside Niylah's room, Clarke saw the other girl pulling her dark, curly hair into a ponytail. "Luna, this is my friend Clarke," Niylah said.

Luna looked over at Clarke and smiled brightly. "Nice to meet you," she greeted.

"Nice to meet you too."

"She's got a date with your friend Nyko," Niylah replied.

"That's awesome," Clarke responded.

"Thanks," Luna replied. "I'll give you two some privacy." And with that, she left the room.

"So, what's on your mind?" Niylah asked.

Clarke blushed. "I think I'm catching feelings for my new roommate."

Niylah whistled. "Wow. I'd love to meet the girl who made Clarke Griffin have feelings."

Clarke rolled her eyes. Her's and Niylah's relationship before had been purely physical attraction. Now, it was based off of mutual respect and friendship. "I don't know what it is about her, but something about that look in her eyes just makes me want to take care of her."

"You always did have a protective streak," Niylah commented. "Lucky for you, I've got an idea."

"What's that?"

"You set me up with your friend Zoe Monroe, and we make it a double date." Clarke rolled her eyes again. "I'm serious!" Niylah protested. "You know how hot Zoe is."

"And how am I supposed to convince Lexa to come with me on a double date? She's probably straight."

"Well, now's the time to find out!" Niylah exclaimed. "Just tell her your friend Niylah needs a wingman and you don't want to feel like a third wheel. We both win."

Clarke smiled. Niylah had a way of getting what she wanted. "Alright, I'll do it."

"Yes!" Niylah exclaimed as she jumped and hugged Clarke. As Clarke hugged her back, a feeling of anxiety rested in her stomach. She was sure she was setting herself up for failure.
