A/N I'm sorry everyone for it taking forever for me to update. With the heat over here on the west coast and the holiday weekend I have been slammed with family. Here is the next chapter and next week I should be back to my regular writing schedule. Thanks for sticking with me and I took this one a tiny bit towards some fluff for the two. Don't forget to review and give me any feedback on what you want to happen. xoxoxo
Octavia was shocked that Raven and Lexa had come up with this brilliant plan. They had duped out both her and Clarke. Then again they both knew that they would want the full story in hurting them so why not be curious and find out. They would alway stick together to matter the situation. Octavia could feel Raven staring at her occasionally it made her nervous but happy. She knew physically they both had an attraction and it was driving them crazy and if it wasn't for Clarke they would have probably already ripped each other's clothes off several times now.
"Do you remember when Octavia thought she was going to show off…" Octavia heard Clarke start a story that was completely uncalled for.
"You shut up." Octavia pointed at her best friend laughing.
"What time, because Octavia shows off every day." Raven started laughing as well seeing Octavia's jaw drop.
"I do not show off." Octavia started to fight her battle.
"Really O everything for you is a competition and it's okay you always come out winning." Octavia watched Clarke answer but turning to stare at Lexa who was by the window. She was happier then she has been in forever and it made Octavia was to jump for joy for her best friend. She could see the connection between the two. She actually could see the love in Lexa's eyes and it made her wonder if Clarke even knew how fast Lexa was falling for her and how far along was her best friend from the same path.
"What are you thinking?" Raven bumped Octavia since they were alone now.
"Just about those two and how amazing it is to see Clarke that happy again." Octavia leaned back letting her head sit in Raven's lap.
"I know I'm happy that this plan worked out for the both of us so well." Raven brushed Octavia's hair back.
"Yeah yeah you guys and your brilliant plan. I hope you know payback will be involved." Octavia smiled feeling the gentle side of Raven.
"Payback huh… what exactly are the details to that." Raven cocked an eyebrow at her.
"Mmmm you'll have to find out." Octavia reached up sliding her hand up Raven's neck to pull her down for a light kiss. She hadn't gotten use to the simple things with Raven yet. She knew they weren't a couple but occasionally Octavia couldn't help herself with the small things.
"I know I'm irresistible you don't have to think so hard about it." Octavia heard Ravens comment and put her hand over her face.
"Next time I am going to smack the confidence out of you." Octavia laughed feeling Raven kiss her palm.
"I'm only here to please you." Raven couldn't help but enjoy the relaxed side of Octavia. It made her feel like maybe this could work. Usually Octavia was so uptight about them being around each other. It could be the wine they all were consuming or maybe because they were in the comfort of company Octavia wasn't afraid of.
"What are you thinking?" Octavia asked watching Raven's expressions change.
"Just…. it's nothing." Raven closed off her feelings a little for the first time she didn't want to ruin the moment.
"That's a lie Raven. This maybe be new between us but I've known you a long time." Octavia leaned up on her elbows to look at Raven better.
"I was just thinking about this all of this." Raven lifted one hand in motion of the room.
"Is that it?" Octavia knew there was more too it.
"Why are you being so nosey." Raven smiled pushing Octavia back down on her lap letting her fingers run through the brunette's hair.
"Why are you dodging the question?" Octavia asked in a low voice. Feeling Raven's hands run through her hair and massage her scalp had her almost in a trance.
"I'm not dodging I just don't want to ruin this moment." Raven decided that would be the best way to hopefully end the questioning.
"Mmmm don't think I am going to forget about that." Octavia made note to find out what Raven was thinking.
"No worries it just means you will keep coming back to me." Raven winked at her.
"Wine wine wine." Octavia turned seeing Clarke sitting across from them again. She was holding out her glass to Lexa.
"How did you get her whipped." Raven asked Clarke gesturing to Lexa.
"I kissed her." they all laughed watching Lexa glare at Clarke.
"Just as bad as Raven over here with her confidence." Octavia pointed between the girls.
"You like my confidence, how do you think I got your attention." Raven smiled watching Clarke and Lexa go silent waiting for Octavia's response.
"You're going to think confidence when kick your ass." Octavia laughed leaning up locking her arms around Raven's neck.
"We both know you can't beat me up." Raven laughed standing up with Octavia still hooked around her.
"I might not be able to but I can sure try." Octavia wrapped her legs around Raven now making it more difficult for her to walk.
"This is going to end badly for you." Raven had to use like every ounce of leg muscle she needed to hold Octavia up.
"Where are they going?" Octavia tipped her head back watching Lexa take Clarke outside.
"Probably away from your monkey ass." Raven was still managing to hold both there weight.
"Mmmm is this your way of showing me you can hold out?" Octavia started to laugh.
"No this is my way of proving this was a bad idea for you." Raven managed to loosen Octavia's grip and she dropped her on the ground.
"'Ouch you asshole." Octavia rolled over climbing to her feet.
"You asked for it." Raven laughed hoping the couch.
"You don't just win that easy." Octavia ran and jumped directly on Raven's back clinging to her again.
"What the hell." Once again Raven was balancing both their weight.
"Show me your strength miss confident." Octavia leaned down whispering in her ear. She felt Raven shiver and it made her smile.
"So that is how it's going to be. You lower my defenses by teasing me." Raven shook off the desire she felt building in her body.
"Nope just playing fair." Octavia was actually enjoying the piggy back ride around the penthouse. She hadn't seen all the rooms and now she was pretty much getting a tour on the sake of Raven's strength.
"So how often do you work out Raven seems like you're slacking a bit?" Octavia couldn't help but stick it to Raven feeling her ass droop a little.
"Well I worked out at the gym with Brandi." Raven felt herself get hit in the back of the head.
"Pshhh Brandi, you do know I take kickboxing classes right. Please don't make me use it." Octavia smiled with the threat.
"Prove it to me?" Raven challenged Octavia.
"Are you serious. Put me down." Octavia shoved but Raven didn't let her grip go.
"What you can't kickbox now I thought you were going to prove something to me." Raven bent over letting Octavia slid up near her head.
"Mmmm Raven I just need you to put me down." Octavia kissing the back of Raven's neck letting her fingers play along her shoulders. She felt her ass get dropped quick but it was just to be yanked against Raven's strong body.
"You're really just asking for it." Raven leaned down this time grabbing Octavia by the ass forcing her to wrap her legs around her waist.
"If that's all I have to do to get you like this, I'll do it every time." Octavia leaned in kissing Raven slightly. She could feel Raven lean into the kiss hard like she wanted more. The sparks between them were so different than anyone she had ever been with. She felt like she was going to burst every time she felt Raven's lips touch hers.
"Mmm time to get off." Raven dropped Octavia because she knew there friends were outside and if Octavia kept teasing her that way she wasn't going stop no matter who walked in. Her frustration was tipping over the edge with each touch.
"That is something I have yet to do with you." Octavia laughed at Raven's use a words and the girl didn't even get it.
"You really can't stand that I haven't you…" Raven stopped getting smacked in the face with a pillow.
"Don't you dare." Octavia laughed hopping over to the other side of the couch.
"This is going to be war." Raven picked the pillow back up hopping the couch to catch Octavia but she ran the other way.
"Looks like you're losing that stamina again." Octavia smiled watching Raven's smirk.
"Mmhmm you won't be thinking that when your out of breath." Raven tossed the pillow hitting Octavia in the side.
"I think you're all talk and no play Raven." Octavia hopped on the couch standing on it now grinning ear to ear.
"Really now.." Raven circled the chair heading towards Octavia when she stopped getting hit in the head with the pillow again.
"Haha you got to be quicker." Octavia screamed running off the couch when Raven charged her.
"When I get a hold of you I promise you will regret it." Raven picked up the pillow standing on the opposite side of a chaise that Octavia was trying to hide behind.
"Pshhh regret what?" Octavia teased while ducking every now and then.
"Ohhh you know.." Raven jumped side to side making Octavia run the wrong way and she ran right into Raven's arms knocking them both down with her screaming with the fall.
"You cheated." Octavia tried to push herself up.
"No I think I won." Raven bit her lip feeling Octavia's body against hers. She let her hands roam down the girls side gripping her ass.
"Oh see I think this is the first time I've been in control." Octavia smirked feeling Raven adjust underneath her. She'd never really thought of controlling Raven and she wasn't sure if she wanted to but the feeling she was having right now knowing she could tease the girl made her smile.
"Don't get cocky." Raven felt Octavia push her hips down on her.
"Never I'm just following your rules Raven." Octavia smiled sliding her knee between Raven's legs. Watching the girl close her eyes made her want to continue.
"What rules are those?" Raven kept her eyes shut trying to keep hold on to what sanity she had left feeling Octavia hover over her.
"The Raven rules. You know I am so confident I can get any girl I want." Octavia leaned down kissing Raven slowly and passionately. She liked the sound of Raven moaning into her mouth.
"I only want you." Raven spit out without even thinking. She felt Octavia go tense and she cursed herself for being so blunt randomly. Thinking of something to do to throw them both off she grabbed Octavia's sides hearing her immediately screech from being ticklish and she flipped them so she was now on top.
"Distractions O you got to stay on your game." Raven smiled seeing as Octavia still hadn't lost the same expression.
"Do you mean it?" Octavia couldn't just let it go.
"Octavia….." Raven groaned rolling over laying on the floor next to her not sure what to say.
"Raven…" Octavia just mimicked the same tone debating on if she should have even asked.
"I don't want." Raven was cut short.
"Do you hear that….. ohhhhh hell no she doesn't" Octavia jumped up sneaking out onto the balcony to see Lexa and Clarke in a very compromising position.
"Mmhmm should have figured." Octavia plopped down in the chair just waiting for Clarke to realize she was busted. She couldn't stop herself from laughing seeing Lexa smirk at her and Clarke mention something about being quiet before Clarke finally spotted Octavia.
"Hahahaha payback is a bitch Clarke" Octavia ran and totally pulled a cannon ball into the pool next to them.
Raven sat in the penthouse for a few minutes longer. She pretty much dodged Octavia's question and then she pretty much ran out of the room. It had nothing to do with what she said not being true it was just she didn't want to scare her away by thinking too far ahead. Hearing the splash and laughing outside she decided it was time to join them.
"What am I missing out here?" Raven went sauntering out onto the balcony seeing Clarke trying to climb out of the pool only for Lexa to pull her back in and Octavia leaning against the back edge of the pool soaking wet glaring at her. It sent chills down her body seeing the looks she was giving her.
Octavia was laughing at Clarke and Lexa being so cute but she couldn't keep her eyes off Raven standing outside the pool. What she had said had shocked her and scared her a little at the same time. She knew what she wanted but for someone reason it always seemed like it was a joke for Raven just another girl. Raven had proved she liked her but liking someone never meant wanting to be with that someone seriously. Raven wasn't known for anything long term she had her player ways even though she was serious she never stuck it out longer than six months but hearing her say she only wants her had her in an unknown state and laughing it off was the easiest thing to do for now.
"Ewwww I'm getting out now." Octavia was brought too by her best friends comment regarding getting wet in the pool and now in the swimming way. She all but jumped out of the pool and ran off because she loved her best friend but that was by far the last thing she wanted to here.
"Octavia really…" Raven chased after her laughing.
"What Raven." Octavia pulled off her shirt she was soaked and she wanted to wipe her brain clean of a few things so she picked up a glass of wine and downed it
"Are you okay?" Raven all but started to drool seeing Octavia take off her shirt while she was still dripping wet. Why did the girl have to always do something to turn her on. It was driving her crazy especially when she was trying to be serious.
"I'm great Raven and about to be even better." She grabbed the bottle pouring another glass looking back the brunette standing in the doorway dying to figure out what she was thinking.
"No you're not." Raven marched forward grabbing the wine glass from her drinking it herself.
"Wow that was a first." Octavia laughed at Raven's face.
"Ughhh I knew there was a reason you only sip that shit." Raven forced herself not to heave.
"Trying to prove a point?" Octavia cocked an eyebrow at her.
"No I just…." Raven stopped watching Lexa and Clarke run through the penthouse half naked and out the door.
"I'm never letting that go." Octavia busted up laughing.
"Mmm yeah that just happened." Raven nodded watching Octavia laugh.
"Let's change." Octavia grabbed Raven's hand and dragged them into the room.
"Wait do we even have anything to wear besides what we changed into earlier?" Octavia looked around in the room.
"Yes Lexa had the people fill the closets with stuff that might fit us." Raven started opening doors.
"Are you serious." Octavia asked walking into the bathroom taking off her pants standing now is just her bra and boyshorts.
"Yeah I think so but I've never seen so many damn closets and doors in a room." Raven turned finally opening up the right one.
"I knew I loved that girl for a reason." Octavia walked out of the bathroom not even thinking just knowing she was cold.
"I knew there was a reason I loved her too" Raven smirked watching Octavia walk towards her. She bit her lip checking out Octavia's toned body. Looks like she wasn't the only one who took to the gym hard. It was weird sometimes she knew she always had a crush on Octavia but seeing her now after kissing her made it so different.
"Stop being a perv and change. I have an idea for us." Octavia smiled throwing on some sweats and a hoodie.
"Dress warm." Octavia added leaving Raven to think to herself in the bedroom. She was a little stressed but still happy they were enjoying each others company. She figured they would talk another day about what got said and for tonight just live in the moment.
"Okay I am ready what are we doing." Raven stepped out in almost the same outfit Octavia had on. Looks like Lexa had figured everything needed to be comfortable after the initial talk.
"I need this, this and you." Octavia grabbed the bottle of wine a blanket and Raven's hand.
"Where are we going?" Raven asked getting dragged out onto the balcony.
"Hush just trust me." Octavia put the stuff down on the table and grabbing one of the couches and pulling it to the end of the balcony.
"You do know that won't soften the fall if you go over with it right?" Raven couldn't figure out what she was doing.
"Raven time for you to shut up and get over here with me." Octavia grabbed the blanket and sat down on the couch and patted the couch.
"Whatever you say boss." Raven hopped over the back of the couch and landed next to Octavia.
"Scoot this way so you can get under the blanket with me." Octavia opened her arms forcing Raven to squeeze in between her legs and the blanket wrapped around both of them.
"This is different." Raven laughed at herself she wasn't use to being the little spoon or having someone wrap their arms around her it was always the other way around.
"What is?" Octavia settled down and started looking up at the stars.
"This me being the little spoon. I'm usually the one holding girls." Raven admitted it sadly she wasn't sure how it was going to come out.
"Everyone needs a little loving too Ray." Octavia took a drink off the bottle happy that she could do something different than others.
"That's true for others just not me." Raven took the bottle from Octavia taking a sip. She was never much of a wine drinker but it was pretty good.
"Stop talking and look up." Octavia pointed at all the stars they could see being on the top of the building. It drowned out the lights and was amazing.
"What am I looking at?" Raven looked up confused.
"The stars dork sheesh." Octavia tapped her on the head.
"Ohhhh.." Raven started seeing each star come to light. She had never just sat and looked up.
"Haven't you ever done this before?" Octavia asked sinking a little and wrapping her arms tighter around Raven so both of them could lean back comfortably.
"Actually I haven't… this ummm isn't the type of thing girls usually want to do with me." Raven noticed she was most definitely living up to that player label.
"Really now and what is it you usually do Raven?" Octavia knew the answer but she could also feel how shy the girl was getting underneath her and it was cute.
"Mmm well haven't you seen my body most just want too…" Raven felt Octavia pinch her side.
"Ouch jerk…" Raven jerked a little looking to the side at Octavia.
"I don't need any details." Octavia laughed seeing Raven scrunch her face up.
"You asked and I was just being honest." Raven smiled seeing the jealousy in Octavia's face suddenly appear.
'Mmhmm I did but now I am revoking your privilege to talk about other women tonight." Octavia looked back at her so they were staring at each other.
"You're cute when you're jealous." Octavia leaned forward giving her a slow kiss.
"You're irresistible when you kiss me like that." Octavia said when she still had her eyes closed.
"Did I just hear you right, can you repeat it." Raven turned in Octavia's lap and kissed her again but this time with a little more force.
"Mmmmm I don't think I know what you're talking about." Octavia smiled knowing she just boosted Raven's ego times ten.
"Suuuureeee you don't." Raven searched Octavia's face. She wanted to talk to her about earlier but she wasn't sure if it was smart so she just laid her head back down on the girls shoulder.
"What are you thinking?" Octavia had seen Raven looking at her like she wanted to say something.
"Nothing just the usual." Raven was staring up at the sky.
"The usual… what does that mean?" Octavia started to draw circles on Raven's palm hoping to keep her relaxed.
"Do you know where any of the star constellations are like the big dipper and stuff?" Raven asked dropping the topic in general.
"I do but I won't point them out unless you talk to me." Octavia had a feeling Raven wanted to talk about earlier and she wasn't sure if either of them were ready for that conversation.
'Show me one please." Raven just wanted them to stop talking and look at the sky together.
"Do you want to talk about earlier Raven?" Octavia decided to just flat out ask her.
"Do you want to talk about earlier Octavia?" Raven tipped her head to side watching Octavia think it over.
"You can't answer a question with a question." Octavia smiled seeing Raven smile.
"Yes I can and I just did." Raven took advantage of where she was and followed the same pattern Octavia was drawing on her hand and did the same to Octavia's thigh.
"That isn't playing fair." Octavia immediately felt the burn against her skin where Raven started touching.
"Tell me where the stars are." Raven tipped her head back and looked up continuing to draw.
"Right there is orion's belt." Octavia pointed up for Raven to see.
"Over here is Leo it looks like a lions head." Octavia pointed a different way.
"There is the big dipper it's part of the ursa major." Octavia got lost in looking up.
"How do you know all of this?" Raven got curious watching Octavia.
'I got stuck with an astronomy class our freshman year and part of the test were to be able to come out and find star constellations." Octavia smiled looking up for others.
"Ohhh and here I just thought you were smart." Raven winched as she felt Octavia's elbow push down on her.
"I am smart jerk, have you seen my grades and academic record." Octavia was proud of her schooling. She had put her soccer scholarship to good use making sure she was getting the best out of it she could.
"Nope but I've seen you dance." Raven couldn't help but laugh hearing Octavia blow out air.
"You are going to come to one of our home soccer games when we're off break so you can see how I got to pick whatever school I wanted and of course I followed Clarke." Octavia had to admit there were a few other schools she could have gone to with better names but she wanted to be with her best friend.
"Ohhh I don't mind that at all." Raven wiggled her eyebrows knowing soccer games were like gay central at certain schools.
"You are going to be coming for me not the other girls don't forget that." Octavia heard the excitement in Raven's voice and decided eventually she was going to have to shut that down. Especially having Raven at a soccer game she could see her teammates already.
"I can't help it if the other girls want me." Raven felt Octavia tense a little and she loved teasing the girl. If Octavia could remember her words from earlier she would know her eyes would only be watching her.
"Will just have to wait and see how that goes." Octavia thought maybe warning a few of her friends who she knew were bisexual and would probably jump Raven the second they saw her. Raven gave off that I'm sexy and like women vibe. Octavia had seen it just ooze off her before in the clubs and around girls even the straight ones and she was perfect proof.
"Stop thinking so much O." Raven could almost hear her brain going in circles.
"It's just…. I'm not thinking. I'm just looking for more stars." Octavia tipped her head back quickly hoping to sale it.
"Do you remember what I said to you earlier tonight." Raven took the leap because she knew Octavia was started to question things again.
"How could I forget." Octavia answered honestly because even with the wine it had been on her mind all night.
"I don't want to ruin this but how about you don't forget those words when you start to think of other women around me." Raven couldn't bring herself to repeat it again but she wanted to reassure Octavia some how.
"Is that your way of saying you actually meant it." Octavia felt her heartbeat speed up she wasn't sure if Raven had just said it or let it slip but she now realized she wanted it to be true.
"It's my way of telling you that others might want me but I only want one person right now.' Raven was trying to word everything around just saying it again.
"Right now… as in temporary or at least until you get what you want?" Octavia felt the wine push her attitude.
"No no no dammit." Raven turned she could tell her words were coming off wrong when she felt Octavia tense and her tone became bitchy really quick.
"Raven I don't want to.." Octavia was cut off feeling Raven's lips crash onto hers. The kiss was passionate and deep. Octavia felt Ravens hands pulling her in closer. She heard herself moan when Raven broke the kiss for air but then just shifted and kissed her again with just as much heat.
"Octavia I want you to listen to me." Raven could tell she had shut up the girl for a second and cleared her attitude.
"Okay…" Octavia managed to get out with her eyes still closed and her hands up Raven's sweatshirt some how. She didn't even remember doing it because she was so caught up in the kiss.
"I only want you." Raven sucked in air as she said it again. She wanted Octavia to know it but she didn't want anything back not right now.
"Raven.." Octavia felt a finger push against her lips.
"Shhh no more talking for the night." Raven smiled seeing Octavia still dazed but a little confused as well.
Octavia felt Raven snuggle down against her and sigh. She could feel the girls body relax almost instantly. It was nice feeling her weight on top of her. She had never been in the position before she had never wrapped her arms around someone and felt them almost melt into her. She couldn't help but smile thinking of what Raven had said. She said it again and she knew it was true but Raven didn't let her say anything about her feelings back. I guess she didn't want it to be a confession for both of them. She heard a small sound from Raven looking down she seen the girl was fast asleep and slightly snoring. Octavia laughed a little hoping not to wake her but she planned on never letting that go either. Resting her head back she stared out into the sky looking for more stars until she felt her eyes start to close. She couldn't have thought of a better way to spend the night.
A/N I know these two drip sexy because I love them that way but I wanted to give them a little fluff and maybe a real date coming up soon to prove it's not just sex even though I am sure the sex will come soon as well. Hope you guys are enjoying the story and sorry again for the long wait. Let me know what you think. xoxoxo
