A/N: IT'S BEEN LIKE 9 MONTHS, no just kidding but it's sure been a long ass time. I'm so sorry I never intended it to take this fucking long, BUT, it's here now, and it's short i'm sorry. I think the fic'll be one or two more chapters and then it'll be over. I have a new thing lined up tho but i'm gonna try to make that a REALLY long one shot like one of those super one shots you know what i mean. BUT yeah junior year's a bitch, it's a ton of fucking work and on top of that i have a job now so it's even less free time for me. And you know, you gotta be in the zone to write, anyway enough excuses. I hope you guys like it, see you in another century for the next update probably. (JK i have an autumn break in one and a half week, fingers crossed)

Clarke wakes up feeling incredibly anxious about her final grade for history. It's not like she worked that hard for the test, but she'd still like to get a decent passing grade on it. On top of that, it is junior year, quite an important year.

But she figures going to the lake is the best possible distraction she can get, and besides, she really wants to see Lexa again. Even though they see each other every day.

So Lincoln ends up picking her up, with Raven, Octavia and Lexa already sitting in the car.

"God Clarke, why are you always so slow," Raven teases as Clarke glides into the seat next to Raven.

"Suck it, Raven," Clarke replies, and offers Lexa a a soft "hey" and a smile.

Even though Lincoln is dating Octavia, Lexa is seated next to Lincoln, which Clarke questions for a few seconds before she determines it doesn't matter.

"Are you gonna make out with Wick?" She asks instead, deciding that bugging Raven is always a good option.

Raven narrows her eyes at her, "Only if you make out with Lexa." She hears Lexa cough from the front seat and she grins. "We'll see what happens."

They all meet up at their usual spot at the lake, and they decide to go swimming since it's "fucking boiling" as Raven put it.

When they're in the water, Lexa moves over to Clarke, a grin on her face. Before Clarke can ask what she's doing, she gets a wave of water over her face. She blinks a couple of times before she can see Lexa beaming at her, Clarke rewards her with a splash of water. Lexa's face is so priceless after the wave of water hits her, that Clarke can't help but splash her again. And again.

"Clarke, I think it's time to stop."

"Make me." Clarke replies as she sends another wave over Lexa's head.

"Oh, I'll make you, Clarke Griffin." Lexa threatens, but before she can come closer, Raven yells something about keeping it in their pants and Clarke smiles at Lexa apologetically.

"I'm gonna go piggyback riding on your back," Clarke announces, moving towards Lexa. Lexa lowers herself farther into the water so Clarke can get up. Clarke raises her arms and opens her mouth to yell something at Octavia, but she loses her balance and falls in the water. When she comes back up, Lexa is trying not to laugh at her.

Clarke turns around when she hears Octavia yell, "Fight me you pussies!" Octavia is on Lincoln's shoulders, shouting and making gestures at Bellamy and Murphy, who seem to be apprehensive about fighting Octavia and Lincoln. Lincoln has more muscles than both of them combined, and pairing that with Octavia, who is surprisingly strong for her size, they don't stand a chance.

However, after more of Octavia's yelling, Murphy gets on Bellamy's shoulders. It only takes Octavia a couple of seconds to knock Murphy over into the water. Her hands shoot up into the air as she yells, "Suck my entire ass losers!" Lincoln only smiles proudly.

"C'mon we're gonna beat Octavia's ass," Clarke says, as she gestures for Lexa to get on her shoulders.

"Bring it on, nosering,"

"Oh, she's going down." Lexa whispers, and Clarke tries to suppress a chuckle.

Lexa and Octavia push each other for a while, until Lexa's gives an exceptionally hard shove and Octavia almost falls off, but Lincoln manages to keep her up on his shoulders.

"Damnit," Lexa hisses as she struggles to keep her balance.

Octavia comes back even fiercer, and while she tries to knock Lexa off, Clarke tries to make Lincoln lose his focus. However, Lincoln has an exceptionally good pokerface and no matter what silly face Clarke pulls, Lincoln doesn't flinch.

But then Lexa starts to get the upperhand, and Lincoln starts pulling faces at Clarke. Normally Clarke can keep a straight face fairly well, but Lincoln's faces are really funny and Clarke is giddy already, so she laughs. And not a little laugh either, everytime Lincoln pulls another face, Clarke laughs again, until her body is shaking with laughter. Octavia sees her chance and shoves Lexa, causing her to topple over and she takes Clarke down with her.

Octavia's laughter makes Lexa look over at Clarke with raised eyebrows as if asking a question. Clarke nods, and Lexa climbs back on Clarke's shoulders.

"Round two, fucker." Lexa says. Clarke looks at Lincoln in surprise and he just smirks back at her.

Lexa and Octavia struggle for a while, until suddenly a ball comes flying over and hits Octavia in the head, causing her to lose her balance. With one push from Lexa, Octavia falls off.

Clarke feels Lexa bending over, and sees her forehead above her, just before gravity takes ahold of Lexa and pulls them both into the water.

"What were you trying to do?" Clarke laughs as she comes up.

"I was trying to kiss you," Lexa replies, laughing.

"What the hell Raven!" Octavia yells, pulling Clarke's attention away from Lexa. Raven's standing on the shore, doubling over from laughing. She looks up just in time to see Octavia getting dangerously close, and she decides that it's best to start running.

Clarke's watching Octavia chase Raven around, so she doesn't notice Lexa getting closer to her. When she does notice, it's too late and Lexa's lips are already on hers. She melts into the kiss, but then she feels Lexa pull back. She opens her eyes to ask what the hell Lexa thinks she's doing, but gets a splash of water over her instead, and a laughing Lexa swimming to the shore as fast as she can.

Clarke tries to follow her, but gets distracted by Jasper and Monty, who are trying to drown Wick.

"Raven, they're trying to drown your boyfriend!" Octavia yells at Raven in an attempt to get her to stop so she can get her revenge. "Not my boyfriend!" Raven yells back as she starts climbing up the tree they put their stuff underneath.

Octavia reaches the tree just as Raven stands up on the first branch, too high for Octavia to reach. "Get the fuck down here Raven!"

"Not gonna happen Pocahontas!"

Octavia tries climbing up the tree, but she's not a good of a climber as Raven is. After trying for the 10th time, Octavia suddenly walks off without a word.

"What? You're giving up? What the hell Blake!" Just as Raven's about to yell something else a ball hits her in the chest and she falls out of the tree, landing on her butt. She sits still in shock for a second before she starts laughing. Octavia walks over to her and helps her up.

"We're even right now," Octavia says. "Shouldn't you help Wick out?" She asks, looking over at Jasper and Monty. "Nah, he's got it covered." Raven replies as Wick's head bobs back up just before being pushed under again.

Clarke sits down next to where Lexa is, Octavia and Raven join them. They pass around a bag of chips while watching Bellamy, Murphy trying to rescue Wick from Jasper and Monty. Murphy ends up helping Jasper and Monty instead of saving Wick.

"You guys want some chips?" Raven yells at them, holding up the bag of chips for them to see.

Just as the boys come out of the water, Lincoln comes walking over with plastic bags in his hands. "I got some more food from the car." He announces as he drops the bags in front of them.

After they eat their dinner, Murphy opens a plastic bag, the contents of it unknown to the rest, but Clarke has a feeling of what could be in it. Sure enough, Murphy pulls out a few bottles of liquor, and plastic cups. "Efficiency," He says as he holds up the cups. He passes around the bottles and cups, and everybody takes some except Lincoln, Monty, Jasper and Lexa. Lincoln and Monty are driving them home, so they need to stay sober, not that they mind by the looks of it. Clarke knows that Jasper doesn't like the taste, so that's why he's not taking any. But Lexa politely declines, like she did last time they were at the lake.

Like always, nobody makes a big deal out of the people not drinking. They don't care, mostly because it means there's more for themselves, but also because all of them are genuinely nice people. And Clarke loves them for it.

But Jasper grabs his bag and pulls out a bag of weed, and starts rolling a blunt. Raven extends her hand, "Gimme," she says while putting her drink down on the grass. Jasper hands it to her, and Raven gets a lighter from her pocket. Of course Raven would have a lighter in her pocket, she once told Clarke it's because "I just like fire, Griffin." Jasper rolls another one and holds it out to Lexa, who takes it without a word. Raven then hands her the lighter. She lights it and takes a long drag, exhaling the smoke like she's done it before.

After they sit talking for a while, Raven gets up and walks over to Wick, who's leaning against the tree and has been watching Raven for a while. Murphy tries to get a fire going, but because he's a total lightweight, he almost trips over his own feet on his way to the pit. Bellamy gets up to help him, the last time Murphy tried making a fire the tree almost caught fire.

As the sun starts to set, Lexa walks away from the group and sits down in the grass, looking out over the lake and the sunset. Clarke looks around to see Raven and Wick making out against the tree, and she shakes her head. Lincoln and Octavia are kicking a ball between them, Octavia misses the ball once in a while, obviously a result from drinking. Usually Octavia never misses a ball. Murphy and Bellamy are still trying to get the fire going, while Jasper and Murphy are discussing some kind of scientific theory Clarke doesn't have the energy to listen to. So she decides to sit down next to Lexa.

She skips over to where Lexa is, far enough from the group to not hear what they're saying, but hearing a dull buzz.

"Hey," Clarke says, drawing out the Y. Lexa doesn't respond, so Clarke puts her head on Lexa's shoulder.

"The weight of your head isn't as heavy as the confusion."

"You're high as shit," Clarke laughs.

"Shit, I am," Lexa laughs. Clarke takes Lexa's arm and puts it around her.

Octavia struts past them, pulling Lincoln along by his hand. "Stop being cute girlfriends me and Lincoln are way cuter." She and Lincoln sit down a little closer to the lake, watching the sunset.

"They're not." Clarke states, shooting a glare at Octavia, even though Octavia won't be able to see it.

"It's hard to compare though," Lexa says.

"What do you mean?" Clarke asks, not entirely sure what Lexa means. Lexa's quiet for a while until she says, "What are we?" The question throws Clarke off, "I, I don't know." She says eyebrows furrowing, she kind of thought it was obvious but now that Lexa asked her she doesn't know what to answer.

"You're dating, you nerds!" Raven yells from the fire where she's sitting next to Wick.

"I'm not a nerd," Lexa says, slightly indignant.

"Yes you are," Clarke replies, and kisses Lexa on her cheek.

"So we're dating?" Lexa asks, looking at Clarke expectantly. "Yes." Clarke beams.

They sit together for a while, staring at the now barely visible sun. When the sun is completely gone, Lexa gets up and extends her hand towards Clarke, and pulls her up from her sitting position.

They join the others at the campfire, where they're all sitting around it. Murphy and Bellamy passing over a bottle between them. Wick sitting with Jasper and Monty, Raven sitting with Lincoln and Octavia. Clarke thinks it's odd for Raven to be sitting so far away from Wick considering they were plastered together not 20 minutes ago.

"You know, we haven't sung any songs together since seventh grade." Jasper says.

"You're high, we sang Bohemian Rhapsody together last week," Raven replies, earning a laugh from Octavia.

"I still think we should sing more," Jasper insists. "It's like a team building exercise." Monty adds.

"We're not in some little league team." Murphy says, passing the bottle back to Bellamy.

"Squad building then," Monty says. It's quiet for a while, until Bellamy starts mumbling. It only takes a couple of seconds for Murphy to join in. "You look like my next mistake," Raven joins in, and soon they're all singing the song. Even Lincoln and Lexa join in even though they're not as wrapped up in the crazy as the rest of them are.

At about 12:30 Bellamy extinguishes the fire, with Raven protesting. They gather their stuff and start walking in the direction of the parking lot. But to get to the parking lot they have to pass through a small forest, the only light they have being from their phones.

Just as they're far enough into the forest to not see the entrance to the forest anymore, Wick says, "Shit guys I don't like this forest at all."

Raven, currently leading the group through the forest, stops. She looks around, waving her phone around to cast some light around her, before pointing towards a seemingly even darker part of the forest. "There's a house there, we can pass through the backyard if you're really that scared."

"That's trespassing." Clarke interjects, but she's ignored as Wick quickly agrees to pass through a stranger's backyard.

"I mean, I take this route all the time. It's fine." Raven insists as Bellamy murmurs something about not wanting to break the law while they're not completely sober. "What if we get caught and they find out we've been drinking?" He whispers in Murphy's ear.

Clarke doesn't care what they do, she's not to scared in the forest. Besides, Lexa's holding her hand, so it's kind of hard to be scared. They trudge behind Raven for a while, until they get to a wooden fence. Clarke can hear Raven and Octavia quietly arguing over who'll be first to climb over the fence, but she decides she doesn't care.

"My hands are cold," She says, and feels Lexa move her hand so both her hand and Clarke's are in the pocket of her hoodie.

After some more murmured noises from the fence, Clarke sees a figure she figures belongs to Octavia, climbing over the fence. Followed by Raven, Octavia, Bellamy, Jasper, Wick, Monty and Murphy climbing over as well. Until it's only Lincoln, Lexa and Clarke standing on this side of the fence.

Lincoln helps Lexa and Clarke over, and drops down behind them. Now they're all in some stranger's backyard. "C'mon this way," Raven says as she guides them away from the fence, deeper into the stranger's backyard.

They're doing great, until Clarke sees one of the black shadows that are her friends trip over something. Something that makes a lot of noise. Everybody freezes in their tracks, somewhere a dog starts barking. Then another one starts barking, and the lights in the house which apparently belongs to the garden they're in, goes on.

"Run you fuckers!" Octavia yells, and they all start running. Raven up front, apparently knowing where to go in the yard. They run after Raven, past the side of the house, jumping over a knee high fence separating the front yard from the pavement. When Bellamy and Murphy jump over, Murphy trips and grabs Bellamy, causing them both to fall over. They scramble back up and run after Raven. They run around the block, until they see the parking lot in the distance. When they get there, they collapse against their cars, laughing.

"That's got to be, the dumbest shit, we've ever done." Octavia wheezes.

"Are you kidding? That was fucking incredible," Raven laughs. The rest of them just leans against each other or their cars, panting.

Clarke and Lexa get into the car with Raven, Lincoln and Octavia. Octavia rides shotgun, and Lincoln drives, forcing Raven to sit next to Clarke and Lexa.

"I swear to god, if you two make out while I'm here, I will fucking-" She doesn't finish her sentence, instead singing along to whatever song is playing on the radio.

Clarke glances at Lexa from the corner of her eye, Lexa's trying to avoid Clarke's gaze, knowing damn well what Clarke's about the suggest. Clarke puts her hand on Lexa thigh, slowly rubbing her thumb back and forth. She keep swatching Lexa from the corner of her eye until she turns her head completely to properly look Lexa in the eyes.

She barely has time to smirk at her, before Lexa cradles her jaw with her hand and pulls her in for a kiss. Lexa's tongue swiping over Clarke's bottom lip just as Clarke's lips part. Clarke's hands go up to tangle in Lexa's hair.

"So fucking gross." Raven mumbles. But Clarke doesn't care, because one of Lexa's hands has traveled down to her waist.

Clarke barely feels the car coming to a stop, but she hears Lincoln coughing. "Your house, Clarke." He says. Patiently waiting for Clarke to untangle herself from Lexa. She quickly pecks a kiss on Lexa's cheek, before exiting the car with a "Bye guys, and thanks for the ride."

That monday, Lexa and Lincoln join them at their lunch table. Lexa continuously fidgeting with her bag, causing Bellamy to remark that Lexa's probably more anxious about Clarke's final grade than Clarke herself is. Clarke has to agree, after the weekend, she didn't really give her mark a lot of thought, feeling like it wasn't that important anyway. Honestly, she'd forgotten about it until Bellamy mentioned it.

On Tuesday, Wick and Raven sit next to each other during the break for the first time. Clarke catches something about an internship over the summer and Wick telling Raven she should probably apply for it, since she's "gonna blow everyone away. Literally."

Clarke decides to go find Lexa, since she's not at the table with them. She figures the best place to start is at Lexa's locker, and she's right. Lexa's leaning against one of the lockers, her own locker open, while looking through a binder.

"Hey," Clarke greets, earning her a kiss on the cheek and a squeeze of her hand.

"Did you get your mark yet?"

"Not yet," Clarke answers.

"I wish he'd hurry up with it, it's driving me insane."

Clarke laughs, "I should be the one going insane."

"I know, I'm just going insane for you." Lexa smiles.

"I could probably pull it off. Going insane."

"You can pull anything off." Lexa says, causing Clarke to smile and quickly kiss Lexa.

"Wait, was that an innuendo?"

"Maybe," Lexa shrugs, grinning and pulling Clarke in for another kiss, deeper this time.

"Okay, okay, I'm gonna be late for class," Clarke says as the bell rings, and leaves with one last peck to Lexa's lips.

"Did you get your mark yet?" Lexa aks in a manner of greeting.

"I did, actually," Clarke replies, getting books from her locker, not looking at Lexa.

"So? What did you get?"

"Relax, it's a sufficient," Clarke replies, smiling at Lexa's anxiousness. "Which is a fucking miracle considering the amount of studying that was involved."

"No offense, but you're a terrible tutor." Clarke adds.

"I got distracted," Lexa deadpans. "Can I come over tonight?"

"Sure," Clarke smiles, as they walk to Lexa's locker.

"So I'll be at your place at 7, I have to do some things first." Lexa says as she starts piling books into her locker, and getting different ones out.

While Lexa's gathering her books, Clarke scans the room for people to observe, she sees nothing strange, until she sees a guy in an extremely fancy suit walking towards them.

"Lex, there's a dude in a suit coming this way."

Lexa looks up, and Clarke sees the colour drain from her face.

"Alexandra." He stops in front of Lexa, completely ignoring Clarke.

"What are you doing here?" Lexa asks stiffly.

"I've come to inform you that you are no longer permitted to see your mother. The final lawsuit has been concluded." The man hands her a paper, turns around, and sees Clarke.

"Who's this?" He asks as he turns back around to Lexa, who's staring at the paper she was handed. "That's Clarke," Lexa answers, meeting Clarke's eyes before meeting the man's. "My girlfriend."

The man nods at Clarke, "Nice to meet you." And he walks off.

"Who the fuck was that?" Clarke asks, turning to Lexa.

"That was my father." Lexa answers, before slamming her locker shut.
