A/N Oops everyone I posted this the other day on AO3 and forgot to pass it on this way but here it is now. I hope you enjoy the cute fun chapter I put together. I had a thing going trying to figure out Aiden's age. Let me know what you think.
Note - To the person asking regarding the sports I just wanted to clear that up. The first chapter Lexa was playing american football because of Lincoln being in the sport. Lexa and Octavia actually play soccer so English football. Hopefully that helps.
Lexa sat still on the table trying to figure out how she got herself into the same room as the blonde again without even trying. Having a nail and board attached her foot wasn't helping anything but it was maybe the highlight of her day if she could find a way to be a little smoother with the blonde this time. She had yet to say a word and neither had the blonde. They were both just staring and she couldn't pull her eyes away from those deep blue ones.
"Lexi." Lexa snapped too looking at her little brother next to her with a scrunched up face.
"Ohhh right umm Dr…" Lexa didn't catch the last part of the blonde's name watching her shake her head like she was trying to get back on track as well.
"Dr. Griffin." Clarke spoke up looking at both the boy and girl and for some reason she couldn't see the resemblance but remembered Raven saying it was complicated.
"Dr. Griffin this is Aiden he is my little brother and it looks like after a long day of him getting in trouble including the center we both ended up with uhhh a few nails." Lexa couldn't help herself from looking down seeing the blonde smile at her.
"She said a bad word." Lexa glared at her little brother.
"Well Aiden it looks like you were the big boy then and from the looks of your x-ray you are going to have it a little easier than your sister." Clarke sat down on the stool rolling up to the little boy watching his eyes go wide.
Lexa watched in awe as the blonde talked to her brother and how easy it was for her to interact with him. She knew a lot of doctors were not fans of having kids as patients but the blonde seem to love every second of her work.
"Is it going to hurt?" Clarke had put on some gloves taking a look at the bottom of Aiden's shoe. She didn't want to just pull it off yanking the nail with it.
"Nope not if I can help it but your sister over there she might cry a little so let's make sure you don't." Clarke couldn't help but tease the brunette who she could hear being grumpy under her breath about her foot dying.
"Lexi doesn't like shots." Lexa looked at her brother rolling her eyes. He seemed all for outing her on everything at the moment.
"Well that sucks because you both will getting a shot today." Clarke watched Aiden's eyes widen as he looked over at his sister causing her to stare at the brunette again who had her eyes shut hard.
"Why do you have a knife?" Lexa spoke up when she saw the blonde roll around on the stool opening a drawer and coming back with a knife. She hated everything about hospitals.
"Well you see here Mrs. Donovan I need the knife to cut around the nail so we don't just rip it out when we take the shoe off. So it looks like you both will be in need of new shoes but you might need a little more." Clarke looked over at the brunette who looked white as a ghost and gave her a wink hoping it would cheer her up a little.
"She's not going to like you." Lexa glared at her little brother again. She knew he really didn't understand what was going on between her and the blonde or what she hopped could happen but he was on a roll with all his comments.
"It's okay Aiden I think I can get her to like me again." Clarke smiled watching the brunette raise an eyebrow at her.
"You ready Aiden." Clarke had made a round cut through the shoe so she could take it off and get a good look at the nail in the little boys foot.
"Yup." Lexa looked at her little brother with his eyes closed tight like he was waiting for pain. She couldn't believe at his age that he would be such a strong little man. Thinking of what they both had been through made a lot of the difference.
"Okay looks like the nail should be an easy removal." Clarke had popped the shoe off the boys foot with ease pulling down his sock it was the only thing between the foot and the nail now and she knew it was just a matter of pulling it out.
"You didn't pull it out." Lexa watched the blonde work trying to figure out how what she was doing to her little brother was going to work on her including the board.
"Nope I am going to spray something on it first so he won't even feel it." Clarke turned back around grabbing the numbing spray to help the little boy.
"Okay here we go." Lexa watched the blonde spray all around the nail hearing her little brother laugh about it tickling his foot.
"On the count of three." Clarke pulled the nail out on two watching the boy jump knowing he had to have felt something it was a decent size nail in his foot. She put gauze up to the hole holding it there tightly so no one saw the blood.
"Now what?" Lexa watched a few tears come out of her brothers eyes as the blonde kept talking to the boy. She was shining a light into her brother's foot looking for something.
"We bandage him up and he gets to go out with the fancy nurses for something special." Clarke knew she had to look into the hole making sure no part of the rubber shoe was left in the boy's foot. She didn't want him to have an infection and end up back in the ER.
"Ughhhh." Lexa sat back against the side of the wall not even wanting to know how her nail and board removal was going to go. She was actually nervous and she couldn't tell if it was from the blonde's presence or just the hospital in general.
"You did great buddy." Clarke learned up ruffling the boy's hair as she turned around to grab a fake ER shoe to put over the boy's foot so when he walked around he wasn't bare footed.
"I did great Lexi." Lexa watched her brother beam a smile at her. She could still see his eyes were a little glossy from the few tears he had shed but she was proud of him for being strong.
"Yes yes you did little man." Lexa fist bumped her little brother as he slid off the table with the blonde's help.
Clarke watched the interaction between the two and she could tell that the brunette would do anything for her little brother. It was obvious seeing the love in her eyes for the little boy. She was an only child but she had Raven and she was as much as a sister as anyone could have.
"Dr. Griffin you need any help?" Raven had been on the other side of the door listening to her best friend. She couldn't help but smile hearing her best friend drop some subtle hints towards the goddess of the commander.
"Actually." Clarke was cut off hearing another woman stalking past the ER nurses and doctors.
"Oh my god Aiden you're okay." Octavia didn't care who she had to get past she made sure the woman at the front desk told her where her best friend and Aiden were.
"Wow." Raven was speechless seeing no other than the other half of the dynamic duo standing in front of her. The girl was even more impressive in person.
"Octavia everything is fine I promise." Lexa spoke up seeing her best friend wrap Aiden up in her arms shaking him back and forth.
"Dr. Griff fixed me all up." Octavia laughed hearing Aiden so proud of himself.
"Raven do you think you could take Octavia and Aiden on a quick tour for a few minutes." Clarke couldn't help but hide her laughter watching her best friend just nod as she stared at the brunette.
"Good memory princess." Octavia smiled at the blonde looking back at her best friend who looked stunned all together.
"Thank her." Clarke pointed at her best friend watching the brunette look at her best friend with an interesting look.
"Raven Reyes." Raven smiled at the brunette known as Octavia Blake and she tried not to be star struck.
Lexa watched the interaction between her best friend and someone the blonde knew. They seemed close and she couldn't help but feel a slight pang of disappointment wondering if they were together.
"Okay Mrs. Donovan." Clarke turned around seeing the confusion written on the brunettes face looking back at the door she had a feeling she knew what it was about.
"Don't worry my best friend will take care of them." Lexa looked back up seeing the blonde slightly smirking at her like she had been reading her mind.
"Ohhh yeah trust me Octavia can handle her own." Lexa played it off trying to not act like she had been busted.
"Care to tell me how he ended up with just a nail and you got a whole board?" Clarke grabbed the stool again looking at the brunette with a smile on her face.
"Well we still have some construction going on at the center and after he stepped on the nail and with my clumsy doing on trying to save him I stepped on a nail that just happen to go with the board." Lexa winced as the blonde lifted her foot to look at it.
"Interesting well first we're going to have to get this board off your foot." Clarke tipped the board trying to think of the best way to remove it.
"How do you plan on doing that?" Lexa was slightly scared watching the blonde examine her foot.
"Well Mrs. Donovan looks like we're going to need a saw." Clarke knew she was joking but looking up at the brunette who pretty much turned white had her laughing out loud.
"Don't worry I'm just joking well slightly." Lexa watching the blonde turn around grabbing her x-ray again angling it like she was thinking about something.
"Lexa." Clarke heard what the brunette had said. She had looked at the name seeing Alexandra Donovan on the paperwork but she didn't extend the question.
"Okay so this idea you are probably not going to like." Clarke stood up watching the brunette look her up and down. She swore she could feel her body temperature go up making her feel on fire.
"Lexa." Lexa pointed at herself and then pointed a finger at the blonde because she had yet to get the doctor's first name and she really wanted to know it.
"Clarke." Clarke finally gave in knowing what the brunette was hinting at the whole time.
"Clarke." Lexa rolled the name off her tongue. She liked the name it was different.
Clarke once again felt her body temperature go up with the way the brunette said her name. It was almost like she could hear the brunette saying it over and over in her head. Pushing down the curiosity and desire she'd had from day one with the girl she knew she was a doctor and needed to stop being a perv.
"Thinking about something Clarke?" Lexa had watched the blonde close her eyes for a second like she was trying to breath only surging her confidence that seemed to waver around the blonde.
"Mmmm no we're good but I am going to need you to stand." Clarke knew this was going to be hard but she knew they both could do it.
"Stand with a board connected to my foot?" Are you sure?" Lexa raised an eyebrow giving the blonde a questioning look.
"Trust me." Clarke stood helping the brunette off the table.
"This is sooo not smart." Lexa bit her lip waiting for the shooting pain but not feeling much.
"Okay so here is the trick, I'm going to stand on each side of the board and you are going to lift your knee straight up pulling your foot off the nail and then I am going to want you to sit back down quickly." Clarke stepped up looking the brunette dead in the eyes.
"You're crazy." Lexa said it as a whisper. She wasn't expected Clarke to be so close to her when she looked up.
"Not the first time I've been called that." Clarke laughed a little placing one foot on the side of the board and sliding her other foot between the brunettes legs stepping on the other side of the board trying not to touch the girl as she did so.
"Ummm." Lexa held her breath a little she was almost flush with the blonde and she wasn't sure how she was suppose to lift her foot without grabbing onto something.
"It's okay just pull up." Clarke felt the brunette stiffen up and she couldn't help but wonder if she could feel the spark run through her body as well the second they touched.
"This is going to hurt why am I so stupid." Lexa cursed her little brother under her breath because she was about to be a baby in front of the beautiful blonde.
"Okay so standing here like this isn't such a bad thing but I'd prefer you to lift your foot now." Clarke bit her lip knowing flirting with the brunette might not be so smooth at the moment.
"Okay okay I got this." Lexa took a deep breath and pulled her foot up as quick as she could. She could feel the nail slide out of her foot and she cringed once her foot was free. Jumping back up on the bed she groaned.
"No bad commander." Clarke pushed the board under the bed grabbing her stool she pulled the brunettes up sliding off the shoe and shock to examine the brunette's foot.
"Coming from a doctor I'll have to accept that compliment and not see it as sarcasm." Lexa groaned again when she felt the blonde push on her foot.
"Well from the looks of it you might be just as lucky as your brother and just have a sore foot and a sore arm." Clarke didn't see anything serious with the hole. No particles just a little blood and a decent size hole.
"My arm what is wrong with my arm?" Lexa snapped her eyes open looking at the blonde.
"You need a shot to make sure this doesn't turn into anything worse." Clarke could see the fear drop into the brunette's eyes.
"No no no." Lexa tried to pull her foot away from the blonde she hated needles.
"Seriously?" Clarke stopped after wrapping the brunettes foot up rolling closer to the girl almost sitting between the brunettes legs..
"What?" Lexa watched the girl scoot closer on the stool with her blue eyes roaming her face..
"The commander, like over a 150 shutouts and who knows how many golden glove awards and yet you are fighting me over getting a shot." Clarke raised an eyebrow seeing the brunette smirk a little showing her confident side.
"So you do know who I am." Lexa felt her heartbeat speed up a little.
"Not really but I have a best friend who pretty much loves the dynamic duo." Clarke watched the brunettes eyes change a little but her smile didn't falter.
"Hmmm and here I thought I had caught the attention of a doctor." Lexa couldn't stop herself from smirking the second she watched the blonde look up at her rolling her eyes.
"You do with probably the whole staff from what I can tell." Clarke grabbed the folder writing in it trying not to laugh.
"Whole staff huh? So that includes you then." Lexa scooted closer to the end of the bed putting herself closer to the blonde.
"Wouldn't you like to know." Clarke bit her lip looking back at the brunette as she pushed back standing up gesturing for them both to leave the room.
"Where are we going?" Lexa frowned a little at the loss of closeness as she stood testing out her foot to see if she would feel any pain.
"To get you back to your little brother and to get that shot." Clarke watched the brunette close her eyes but walk forward.
Raven stood outside the door trying to listen to anything she could hear inside the room again. She was only getting a few laughs and maybe some confidence coming off the commander now. She was hoping her best friend didn't blow her second chance with the brunette or better yet plotting out her next move for the two.
"Anything interesting?" Raven jumped hearing someone behind her.
"Ummm well you know… I was just…" Raven had no idea what to say to Octavia standing in front of her with her arms crossed.
"Lexa and the princess?" Octavia knew exactly what the brunette was doing and she couldn't help but want to do that same. It was obvious the two had a connection with just the way they looked at each other.
"You got the same vibe haha I knew I liked you." Raven let the words slip from her mouth to quick. She had played it pretty cool earlier with the brunette trying to not act star struck but now she was stuck alone with the girl.
"What's not to like?" Octavia bit her lip smiling a little knowing she just pushed her foot across that line. She couldn't help but admit the slightly geeky brunette was adorable.
"I mean if you want all honesty." Raven raised an eyebrow at what Octavia had said looking the girl up and down she had to admit the brunette was even more beautiful in person.
"Raven?" Clarke jumped slightly opening the door finding the brunette standing in front of it but back facing her.
Lexa stopped just in time before running into the blonde but it didn't stop her from checking out the blonde from behind. She had to admire the way the scrubs fit the blonde yet again and the hint of vanilla and caramel that came off the girl.
"Commander you see something you like?" Octavia laughed seeing her best friends eyes snap up to meet hers knowing she had just got busted checking out the blonde from behind.
"Octavia." Lexa said it in a stern voice watching Clarke turn around and give her a look of questioning.
"Sorry ummm where is Aiden?" Lexa cleared her throat feeling herself blush because she had a feeling the blonde had caught on.
"Over there he seems to have a way with the ladies." Octavia pointed to Aiden sitting with a few of the nurses who were all laughing.
"Got it so you ready to go." Lexa wanted to leave as quickly as possible. She needed to gain some confidence back if she planned on hopefully getting the blonde's attention.
"Ahhh not so fast." Clarke reached up grabbing the brunettes arm swinging her around only to cause them to bump into each other face to face. Feeling the flex in the brunettes arm made her bit her lip along with the strong grip she felt on her hip.
Lexa felt herself breath in deeply as she grabbed the blonde's hip trying to steady herself.. She knew that she was slightly dumbfounded running into the blonde for the second time but feeling the girls touch and meeting her blue eyes which seemed to have darkened now had her stuck in place. Licking her lips she wished she was in a different time and place and she might actually give into temptation and kiss the blonde.
Octavia watched the event go down only to grab Raven by the arm dragging her away. She could tell the brunette wanted to crack a joke but with the way her friend and the blonde were looking at each other but now was not the time. She wanted it to play out.
"I mean if you wanted to touch me you just had to..." Raven laughed ducking Octavia's elbow. She knew why she got yanked away and she wasn't complaining.
"You are trouble." Octavia shook her head heading back towards Aiden and Lincoln who for some reason she was trying to avoid in front of the brunette.
"Where is my sister?" Octavia watched the little boy dodge her running towards Lexa with lightening speed.
"Damn the boy can run?" Raven spoke up feeling herself get elbowed yet again.
"You could have grabbed him." Octavia pointed to Aiden who was now gripped on Lexa's leg.
Clarke felt herself finally snap out of it the second she heard Aiden's voice and the impact the boy put on Lexa pushing the brunette into her even harder only for her to hit the wall. Taking a deep breath she let go of the brunette's arm and separated herself from the both of them. Looking around she spotted Raven and Octavia smirking in the distance only to roll her eyes at the two women.
"You two need shots." Clarke spoke up seeing Lexa lift up her little brother up in the air with no problem making her think of the strength she had just felt in the brunette's arm.
"I think we will be okay." Lexa tried to dodge the shot again only to get a glare from the blonde.
"Harper do you think you could discharge these two and make sure they both get tetanus shots." Clarke felt like she needed to get away. After feeling her body pressed against the brunettes and the girls green eyes that had her body on fire making her wonder if the brunette could read her mind.
"No wait Dr. Griff." Lexa wanted to worship her brother rather than kill him at the moment for not letting the blonde get away that quickly.
"Yes Aiden?" Clarke looked at the little boy who was smiling at her.
"Raven said I have to ask you to come to the center opening on Saturday." Clarke bit her lip looking over at her best friend who was nudging Octavia with both of them laughing.
"Really Raven said that huh?" Clarke couldn't help but see the smirk slowly spreading across the brunette's face as well. It was almost like she had been set up by all of them.
"Yup she said you already have the flyer in your pocket." Lexa laughed just a little watching the blonde roll her eyes pulling the flyer out of her pocket tapping on it. She wasn't sure how but she planned on thanking the blonde's best friend.
"Hmmm so about that not knowing me part." Lexa couldn't help but tease the blonde for once seeing the blue eyes meet hers with humor in them.
"You are not helping yourself." Clarke couldn't help but not laugh herself because she had just been played by her best friend and the little boy.
"So is that a yes?" Lexa swung the little boy around on her back.
"I'll make you a deal." Clarke tucked the clipboard under her arm knowing that Lexa was not going to like it.
"Hit me with it." Lexa stood tall like she was trying to fit her nickname.
"Take little Aiden here and go with Harper to get the shot's you both need and than meet me at the front desk and I'll give you an answer." Clarke stopped herself from laughing when she watched the brunette close her eyes grunting.
"Deal." Lexa shook her head hearing her little brother yell in agreement.
Clarke started walking toward her best friend ready to strangle her as she left the brunette and little boy to go with Harper. She knew everything today had been Raven and it wasn't that she was complaining but she still planned on killing the girl.
"Raven!" Clarke all but screamed in through her teeth.
"Princess." Octavia spoke up laughing seeing the blonde after the geeky brunette who was now hiding behind her.
"Octavia do you think I could borrow Raven here for a minute." Clarke smiled trying her hardest to be nice.
"No thanks Clarke I think Octavia wanted to tell me something." Raven winked at the blonde while she checked out the brunette again.
"Octavia my best friend is checking out your ass." Clarke smiled seeing Raven's eyes snap up in shock as Octavia turned around laughing.
"Karma is a bitch Raven." Clarke laughed tapped on her clipboard walking past the two leaving Raven on her own with Octavia.
Lexa could see the blonde in the distance as she waited for her shot. Seeing her in her own element with her white coat back on tucking some hair behind her ear she was filling out some kind of paperwork. She could tell the blonde was loved at the hospital with how many people stopped by her just to say hi.
"She's single you know." Lexa looked back at the girl who was helping her and her brother.
"That obvious huh?" Lexa shook her head knowing her walls were dropping around the blonde already.
"Kind of plus I think almost anyone who walks into this hospital doesn't fall for Dr. Griffin she just has that effect on us even me." Lexa looked up meeting the girls stare as she winked at her. It made her a little jealous because she wasn't sure exactly what the girl meant but she didn't like thinking of the blonde with someone else.
Clarke watched as the brunette stole glances her way. She tried not to be obvious at doing the same thing but it was hard. Between the people talking to her and the paperwork she was attempting to fill out all she seemed to be able to do is try and catch those green eyes staring back at her. Something was different about the brunette compared to the others she always had asking her out. She wasn't sure what to say or feel about it.
"I see some heart eyes." Clarke looked up seeing Raven smiling at her.
"You're an asshole." Clarke was attempting to stay angry at her best friend but it was not working.
"So are you going to turn her down on the offer?" Raven watched Lexa look there way again.
"Technically it was Aiden's offer thanks to you." Clarke rolled her eyes.
"Well just so you know you break the boys heart Octavia might kill you." Raven turned around watching the brunette talk to the extremely quiet tall man.
"Jealous much?" Clarke watched her best friend check out Octavia.
"Pshhh." Raven laughed it off seeing Lexa and Aiden walking their way.
"See you tonight, love ya." Raven walked off giving little Aiden a fist bump on her way past them.
"Dr. Griff." Lexa picked up her little brother so he could show off his batman bandaid to the blonde doctor.
"Good choice he is one of my favorites as well." Clarke smiled looking up at the brunette who was staring at her with questioning eyes.
"Pink looks good on your commander." Clarke bit the end of her pen trying not to laugh.
"Well you know Harper over there thought it would be funny." Lexa watched Clarke roll her eyes before turning around to look at the other girl. It made her wonder exactly what it was for.
"Let's go little man." Octavia laughed interrupting both of their staring to grab the boy.
"So Clarke." Lexa started before getting stopped by the blonde. She was a little confused when the girl held up her finger to be quiet.
Clarke loved the confusion on the brunettes face it made her have a cute pout that she wanted to just kiss off the girl's face. She had already wrote her number down on the flyer knowing it was a bold move but if she was going to show up at the center not knowing what she was actually walking into with the brunette she figured feeling out the situation between text might make it a little easier.
"Have a great night commander." Clarke handed back the flyer before walking away from the brunette. She had a lot of work to do but she knew her mind would be stuck on the beautiful brunette with stunning green eyes.
Lexa watched the blonde walk away admiring the girl's ass once again in the scrubs. She wasn't sure what had just happened but looking down at the flyer she saw a phone number with the blondes name. She knew she had a ridiculous grin on her face but nothing could take it away. Tipping the flyer to the side she read the note.
"You still owe me." Lexa said it out loud before shaking her head laughing as she turned to head out of the hospital with her friends.
A/N Let me know what you think. Thanks for all the support. xoxoxo
