Costia is sitting in her trailer when she gets a notification on her phone from Instagram. She stares at the name ''Lexa Woods has uploaded a new picture'' it says.
She presses on it and sees a picture of Lexa and Clarke on her screen with the caption #Clexa. Somehow this makes her feel bad. She stares at Lexa on the picture, who seems to be having a great time with Clarke.
Costia scrolled down to read the comments underneath the picture ''Aww, congratulations!'' was written. ''You guys are goals!'', ''Please tell us that is your girlfriend'', ''a new ship is rising #Clexa.'' All the comments make Costia feel jealous. She should be in that picture with Lexa, not Clarke. Or at least, that's what Costia thinks.
Lexa wakes up the next day from her phone that is constantly buzzing. Lexa sits up in her bed and opens her notifications. She sees that most of the notifications are from Instagram so she opens it. Lexa sees all the comments under her picture with Clarke. It makes her smile. Clarke makes her feel all the things she never thought she would feel again. Clarke makes her happy.
It isn't until two minutes later when Lexa discovers a text from Clarke ''Hey, sleepy head. Last night was amazing. I hope you got some sleep after all the drama. Might wanna check your insta tho.. everyone is like going crazy. Anyway I'll see you soon x''
Lexa smiles at the text so she starts typing something back ''Hey, it's only 11 am ;). Last night was a blast ;) if you know what I mean :3. Anyway thank you for existing, you beautiful human xo. I already saw my insta.. my fans think you're pretty ;) but they should back off though, cuz you're totally my something right now. I will call you after I am back from the meeting about the sequel. Xo'' before she presses send.
Lexa gets out of bad and walks towards the bathroom to get ready for the meeting. She grabs some easy clothes from her clothes and undresses before she gets under the shower. It's about 30 minutes later when Lexa is in her car, on her way to the studio to meet with Lincoln. She honestly isn't that thrilled about another movie, especially with Costia, not after last night.
Lexa arrives just in time. She parks her car and walks into the building. Lexa walks over to the reception ''I'm here to meet, Lincoln'' she says with a smile.
The brunette, with the nametag Octavia nods at her ''You must be Lexa Woods. It's an honor to meet you. Lincoln Trigeda, is in the room on the first floor, third door to the right.''
''Thank you'' Lexa says before making her way to the first floor. She walks up the stairs when she notices someone calling after her ''Hey!'' she hears from behind.
Lexa reaches the first floor before she turns around to see Costia standing behind her ''Costia'' Lexa states before looking at her ex-fiancé.
Costia grins at Lexa ''Already a new girlfriend?'' she spats out. Lexa doesn't like where this is going but she chooses to ignore Costias behavior so she just nods ''As a matter of fact, I do. She's amazing.''
''Congratulations'' Costia says, clearly annoyed. Lexa notices this but doesn't react to it.
Their conversation is interrupted by a man who comes walking towards them ''Hello, I'm ready'' Lincoln says with a smile.
''Hi'' Costia says a bit distracted. Lexa sighs deeply before walking away from Costia following Lincoln into his office. Costia follows about a minute later.
They sit down next to each other, clearly feeling awkward. Or at least, Costia is behaving awkwardly. Lexa choses to act normal, she doesn't want to get into another bad situation.
''Thank you for coming today'' Lincoln says with a smile.
''Of course'' Lexa says.
''So I wanted to talk to you guys about another sequel of the movie Imagine me and you. It was such a great success that we want to make another one, but we need you guys for that. You guys played your parts amazing, that we want to make you an offer. I'm aware of your personal situation, but this is acting so..I was hoping you would consider it'' Lincoln says before handing Lexa over a contract.
''I need the time to think about this'' Lexa admits ''But I have to go. My shooting starts in an hour. You'll hear from me soon.''
''Alright, thank you for coming miss Woods. Have a nice day'' Lincoln says.
Lexa nods at Lincoln before heading out of the office.
She makes her way out of the building. Lexa is about to drive away when she is stopped by Costia ''Lexa, wait!'' Costia says to her.
Lexa opens her window to hear what Costia has to say ''Why?'' Lexa asks a bit annoyed. She's not exactly waiting for another speech.
''Because I was the woman you were supposed to marry'' Costia says sounding desperate. Like she's trying to make Lexa feel guilty about leaving her, when she was the one who cheated on her.
Lexa shakes her head ''You're unbelievable. You're going to blame me? While you were screwing around with that fuck head of a Tanya. Seriously, get a life Costia. I'm happy with Clarke so back off'' Lexa says with a grin before driving away, leaving Costia behind. Who clearly didn't see this reaction coming.
Lexa arrived at the studio about 20 minutes later when she decides to text Clarke before the shooting starts for today ''Can we meet up tonight?'' she texts Clarke before putting the phone away and heads into the building.
Clarke's at home when she gets Lexa her message. She opens her phone and types back ''Of course, is something wrong?'' she responds.
Clarke doesn't get an answer for the rest of the day, what leaves her worried. She's worried that something might've happened with Lexa and Costia during the meeting.
Clarke her thoughts are interrupted by the doorbell ''Who could that be?'' Clarke thinks to herself before heading towards the door.
Clarke opens the door and is surprised to see Lexa standing in front of her. Lexa looks a bit out of sorts, so Clarke just pulls her in for a hug ''Come in'' she whispers in Lexas ear.
Lexa nods and walks past Clarke ''Thank you'' she says with a hint of a smile before heading down to the couch to sit down.
Clarke follows Lexa and sits down next to her ''Are you okay?'' Clarke asks worried.
Lexa turns around to face Clarke ''Yes. I am. I just wanted to talk to you about the new movie. I read the contract and the money is well..it's a lot..'' Lexa mumbles.
''Why do I get the feeling that there's a but hidden in there somewhere?'' Clarke asks.
''Because there is. The shooting of the movie is about a year..'' Lexa mumbles.
''That's amazing'' Clarke says with a smile trying to figure out what Lexa is saying.
''The filming will be in Australia..'' Lexa adds before turning silent. She looks at Clarke, who clearly doesn't look to happy about it.
''Please say something, Clarke'' Lexa begs.
Clarke still doesn't answer her. She knows that Lexa deserves this opportunity and she doesn't want to get in the way of that. Clarke looks at Lexa with a smile ''You should go for it. It's an amazing opportunity, I'm happy for you.''
Lexa looks surprised at Clarke because it wasn't the answer she was expecting ''Alright. I will then'' she says.
''Yeah, you do that..'' Clarke says.
Lexa nods at Clarke awkwardly ''I should go..'' she mumbles before standing up.
''Alright'' Clarke says.
Lexa is halfway Clarkes living room when she turns around to face Clarke ''Are you sure about this?'' Lexa asks, hoping that Clarke will ask her to stay.
''Yes. I'm happy for you'' Clarke says.
''Okay'' Lexa says before turning around to leave Clarke behind. She feels so stupid to think that Clarke would want her to stay. It's stupid of her to think that Clarke and her would actually have a chance to be together. They only kissed once and never really talked about it. She feels stupid for hoping. Lexa gets in her car and drives away as fast as she can.
Clarke on the other hand is still sitting on her couch, tears forming in her eyes. She feels stupid for not asking Lexa to stay, because that's what she really wants. She wants to date Lexa, to figure out what it is what's growing between them. But she doesn't want Lexa to ruin her career for her. She's not going to let that happen.
Lexa arrives at the set just in time before shooting begins. She tries to hold herself together for the rest of the day but seems distracted by the thought of leaving Clarke. Something is trying to hold her down.
Clarke is watching tv that same night when she hears her doorbell ring again. She hopes that it is Lexa, saying that she declined the offer for the movie. She makes her way to the door and opens it. She's surprised to see Raven standing in front of her. Raven was her friend from high school. Raven and Clarke were super close until university, they grew apart after that.
''Raven'' Clarke says surprised.
''Surprise'' Raven says with a smile before taking a few steps towards Clarke to pull her in for a hug.
''Want to come in?'' Clarke asks with a smile.
Raven nods ''Of course'' she says with a smile before following Clarke into the house.
''Wow, what a cool place'' Raven says, clearly impressed by Clarkes house.
''Thank you. Do you want something to drink?'' Clarke says while walking towards the kitchen.
''Yes, thank you'' Raven answers.
Clarke grabs a bottle of wine with two glasses and makes her way back to Raven.
''So what are you doing here?'' Clarke asks.
''Well I was on Facebook when I saw a picture with you and that celeb. It made me think about all the amazing times we had as friends so I decided to come look for you'' Raven says with a smile.
They talk for about two hours when the doorbell rings again. Clarke looks surprised at Raven before she gets up to make her way back to the door. She opens it, and sees Lexa standing in front of her.
''Lexa?'' Clarke asks confused.
Lexa doesn't answer her but pulls Clarke towards her before leaning in to kiss Clarke.
Clarke pulls away from the kiss, feeling confused about what just happened.
''I called Lincoln and said no'' Lexa admits to Clarke.
Clarke looks Lexa in the eyes and sees the honestly in Lexas eyes. She's so happy with what she just heard that she pulls Lexa in for another kiss.
Raven walks towards the door to see Clarke making out with Lexa ''Uhum'' she says while clearing her throat.
Clarke pulls away from the kiss to turn around and see Raven standing behind her.
''Are you going to introduce me, Griffin?'' Raven asks with a smirk.
Clarke's about to answer when Raven realizes that it's Lexa Woods standing across from Clarke.
Clarke chuckles ''Raven this is Lexa. Lexa's my girlfriend'' she says with a smile.
''Girlfriend, huh?'' Raven says teasingly.
Lexa nods before grinning at Clarke ''Girlfriend yes'' she says proudly before looking at Clarke.
Raven walks towards Lexa and shakes her hand ''Big fan'' she just says.
''Come on! Let's take a picture of you two'' Raven says with a smile.
Clarke and Lexa look confused at Raven but don't really have a choice because Raven just pushed them next to each other. Clarke put her arms around Lexas waist and pulls her closer. Lexa does the same.
''Alright, smile!'' Raven says with a grin, before snapping a few pictures of Clarke and new her girlfriend.
Costia is in her trailer on her phone when she opens an e-mail from Lincoln saying that Lexa refused the part. This somehow makes Costia pissed off. This was Costia her opportunity to show the world she wasn't as bad as everybody was thinking right now because of the whole infidelity scandal with her and Tanya.
Just when Costia thought here day couldn't get any worse, she gets another notification from Instagram saying Lexa Woods just uploaded a new picture. Costia opens her Instagram to see a picture from Lexa with Clarke. They are holding each other around the waist. The caption says ''Good times with bae. #Clexa #Loveconquersall #Girlfriend''
This makes Costia cringe. Costia scrolls down to see the comments. One in particular gets her a lot. It appears to be from Clarke answering ''Good times indeed 3 My hot girl ;P''.
Costia doesn't seem to be able to hold herself together any longer and throws away her phone against the wall.
''FUCK YOU, CLARKE GRIFFIN!'' She creams out.
