Lexa was at the bar to grab a beer and Clarke already knew what was coming for her. Octavia leaned over the table to get closer to her friend and she smiled. "I could totally see you two together." She tells her. It didn't took long before Raven teamed up with her.

"Yeah Griffin, she's really hot and by that, I mean really really hot."

Clarke rolled her eyes at her. "Not even happening. She's my rookie, that's it."

"That's what they always say and I ended up screwing Lincoln." Octavia added, trying to convince Clarke.

"And I with Bellamy." She looked at Octavia, who immediately give her a smack behind her head. Bellamy Blake was Octavia's big brother. He was Raven's S.O., before getting transferred to another division, drugs and gang. He was currently undercover and no one could make contact with him until Lieutenant Kane said so. Octavia was really missing her brother.

"Seriously?! I asked you not to bring this up ever again!" She replied with a grimace.

"You guys are impossible." Clarke said while Lexa came back at the table. She smiled at her and the brunette shyly smiled back. She sat down and took a sip of her beer.

"So, Woods." Clarke glanced at Raven. "Any fiancé? Boyfriend? Cat?"

Lexa shook her head and answered: "Not that I know of." She had an interesting sense of humor and it was certainly amusing Clarke. This girl was interesting and a part of her wanted to get to know her. She brushed this idea: this was not good for a supervising officer and her rookie.

"So, you guys are close?" Lexa continued, getting an eye on each of them.

"Yes," Clarke answered. "We've known each other since high school. About thirteen years I've been enduring those two, I can't imagine that." They were fifteen when they met and now Clarke just turned 28 years old. Time has been flying since she got out of the academy. She has been so focused on her job all that time.

"Hey nerd, you love us enough to live with us." Octavia replied to her. She took a sip of her drink and added: "Plus, we have Saturday pancake, Thursday movies and Monday ice cream. You can't break our magnificent routine."

Raven looked at Lexa, leaning so she could say: "Blake's pancakes are amazing. I'd sell my soul for them." She smiled and looked at Octavia, who returned her smile.

"Well, I'm the only one that can properly cook things – and no Clarke, Kraft Dinner is not a meal." Octavia said, chuckling.

"I wanted to be a Chef, when I was younger," Lexa started. "I took a few lessons."

"And what happened after that?" Simply asked a curious Clarke.

"I realized I wanted to do something different with my life – saving people. My father was in the U.S Navy, he inspired me to become a cop."

"That could be nice though to have someone else to prepare our meals, sometimes." Groaned Octavia. Clarke and Raven were always helping with the dishes, but constantly having to make food for three was exhausting, especially when her friends were always looking for something to eat.

"Hey, have you found some place to live, yet?" Raven asked, still smiling. "We're looking for a new roommate, but I think Clarke is scaring them."

"No I am not!?" She responded, glancing at her two best friends.

"Yeah you are, you're such a nerd. You can't even leave the house if something is left on the counter or if the floor is a bit dirty!"

"What's wrong if I want to clean the place? You guys never help me."

"So… You're looking for another roommate?" Lexa shyly asked, playing with the base of her beer bottle. Clarke could see she was interested by the proposition. "I'm living with my uncle Gustus for now, but I didn't wanted to stay long. He's busy with his kids and stuff."

"You could come and check out the house if you want to." Raven told her. "We can finish this and leave."

"What, you mean now?" She said.

"Yeah, why not?" Octavia said.

Clarke wasn't sure how she was feeling about all that, but she sure wanted to know Lexa's answer. Even though they just met, she knew the woman could easily integrate their home. And Clarke knew she'd get along with Raven and Octavia. Somehow, she wanted that to work.

"Last time we had another roommate, it was Clarke's girlfriend and they broke up not long after that." Raven said, looking towards her with a smirk.

She was going to kill her in her sleep. Her eyes opened bigger and she stared at her best friend for two seconds, with a killer look. She would get her revenge on her, sooner or later. She glanced at Lexa, blushing.

"Yeah… how about we stop talking about my miserable love life and show her our house?"


The car ride was silent, even though Clarke wanted to ask so many things to her new rookie. They arrived at the house, it was not really that far from the Grounder, maybe two blocks away. On the road, Lexa said they were close to her uncle's apartment, but that was pretty much it. They arrived before Raven and Octavia, so Clarke decided to get her inside so she can look at the things.

"This would be your room." She said, opening the door. Lexa walked in first, looking around. The room was big enough and there was already a bed in it. "It comes with the bed and we also have some furniture's in our shed." The window was giving a nice view to the small forest behind the house.

"This is a really nice house." Lexa says, looking at her in her eyes. "You're sure you're ok with that? Me possibly moving in?"

"I'm good with that, I think. You seem like a nice person."

"Thanks." She looked at her with a genuine smile and Clarke felt her heart pounding hard into her chest. The way Lexa was looking at her with her big green eyes, nobody ever looked at her like that.

Clarke heard someone opening the front door and she knew the girls were back home. By the end of the night, after talking about rent and lifestyle, Lexa agreed to be their roommate for half a year – then she would decide if she wanted to stay longer with them. They talked about helping her moving the next day and Clarke felt suddenly really excited about it, somehow.
