”Clarke…” Lexa placed a soft kiss on her shoulder to try to wake the blonde girl next to her.
”Mhm..” Clarke liked being waked by Lexa.
”Your phone has been calling like crazy” Lexa pulled Clarke closer to her body, still sleepy.
”Ignore it…” Clarke mumbled but her phone started buzzing again so she reached for it, it was Raven.
”Good morning” Raven sounded happy.
”It’s early” Clarke sighed. ”What do you want?”
”I woke up early so I was thinking, I will call and wake up Clarke so we can hit the mall early before all the people start storming in”
”What are you talking about?”
”We talked about shopping yesterday?” Raven questioned her.
”Oh right…yeah” Clarke remembered that she agreed to go shopping today.
”So take a shower and get ready, have some breakfast and we can have lunch later, okay?”
”Okay okay” Clarke was to tired to argue this, it did sound nice.
”See you at the mall!” Raven hanged up and Clarke took a deep breath and tried to wake up a little more.
”My legs are sore” Clarke chuckled and turned around to face Lexa.
”You are quite flexible” Lexa smiled at her. ”When do you have to leave?”
”Soon..I’ll bet your sister will be home today?”
”I guess” Lexa reached for her phone and unlocked it. ”She hasn’t texted me yet”
”Have you heard anything from your mother?” Clarke carefully asked.
”No…my dad texted me the other day though, he will call me this week hopefully” Lexa’s mood suddenly seemed to change by the subject.
”We don’t have to talk about it” Clarke put her hand on Lexa’s waist to calm her down.
”Nah..It’s fine. It’s just sucks that I don’t know anything” Lexa sighed. ”It’s also sucks that you have to leave…”
”I think we can figure something out” Clarke smiled at her. ”Yesterday was probably the best day I had in a very long time”
”Same..” Lexa smiled at her.
”Oh shit…I guess I need to go home to get some new clothes” Clarke took a deep breath, she was still tired.
”I could give you a ride if you want?” Lexa suggested.
”Oh, you don’t have too” Clarke sat up and looked for her skirt she was wearing on Friday.
”Do you really want to ride the bus in those clothes?” Lexa chuckled. ”You will get a lot of attention though…”
”Maybe not…” Clarke put on the shirt as well and looked at herself in the mirror. ”Not really a Sunday morning outfit” She shook her head.
”Doesn’t really save much for the imagination” Lexa winked as she put on some jeans.
”It’s not that bad” Clarke crossed her arms and turned around.
”I wasn’t the only one checking you out Friday, let me tell you that” Lexa finished putting on a black sweater and she looked really laid-back.
”Stop it” Clarke smiled at her but low-key glad that Lexa had been checking her out.
”Alright…let’s go” Lexa reached for her hand and dragged her out of the room.
The ride wasn’t long and about 10 minutes later they where parked outside Clarke’s building almost at the same spot they had been making out a lot of times.
”Mom’s not home” Clarke looked at Lexa. ”Want to my place?”
”Anya actually texted…I need to go pick her up”
”Oh..” Clarke got a bit disappointed.
”I’ll text you later?” Lexa leaned in closer and Clarke met her halfway for a soft kiss.
”Yeah” Clarke kissed her again before opening the car door.
”Bye” Lexa yelled and Clarke watched as the brunette drove away - it felt like she snapped back to reality and she hated it. They where still a secret and she still wasn’t sure what the hell they where doing, could she call it dating?
Around two hours later Clarke had showered, had some breakfast and put on some make-up. She felt like a new person as she was waiting for Raven outside off the entrance to the mall.
”You look fire” Raven didn’t take long after her and they hugged each other quickly.
”Same babe” Clarke smiled at her and they lingered their arms before walking in.
”So how was yesterday, did you feel shit?” Raven laughed.
”It was weird waking up at Lexa’s and feeling like shit but it wasn’t too bad” Clarke knew she had to mention it.
”It actually seemed like she cared about you..scary” Raven joked.
”She’s not that bad honestly” Clarke told her.
”Don’t forget what she did to you in the past” Her friend reminded her.
”She apologized for it..and she hasn’t done anything after that”
”Oh…Clarke?” Raven suddenly stopped and looked at her.
”What?” Clarke was confused.
”You are crushing on Lexa?!” Raven gasped.
”What?” Clarke was not ready for that. ”No I do not” She wasn’t sure that was very convincing.
”Damn…Really?” Raven fucking knew her to well.
”I don’t, I’m just saying she’s not that bad” Clarke tried.
”I mean she’s hot, wouldn’t be that surprising. She’s more your type than Niylah”
”Don’t remind me off her…” Clarke sighed.
”Oh shit, you haven’t talked to her yet?”
”She wanted to try again and I have sorta avoided her since…”
”Harsh…Why don’t you just tell her the truth?”
”I don’t want to hurt her and I honestly needed to think about it”
”But now you are all heart eyes for Lexa” Raven chuckled.
”Stop that…” Clarke hushed her down. ”Let’s talk about you and Anya instead”
”Giiiirl…” Raven warned her.
”Now you know how it feels” Clarke chuckled.
”Okay fine, I’ll drop it but just be careful. You’re running against each other don’t forget that, don’t fall for her beauty in case she’s just playing you”
”No need to worry…” Clarke rolled her eyes.
”Anyway…I need some new jeans and I need your help. Let’s forget about the sisters for the day” Raven suggested.
”Sounds amazing” Clarke agreed.
The next day at school Clarke was feeling extremely happy, the weekend had been amazing. The soccer team won, she got to spend time with Lexa and actually had a great day with Raven in the mall. She bought some nice new clothing that she was wearing for the day and already got some compliments for.
As usual at lunch she was sitting with Bellamy, Raven, Octavia and Lincoln eating some dry burger for the day. Her friends where not as excited as her since it was a Monday and they where quieter than usual.
”You know what” Raven looked at her friends.
”What?” Octavia wondered.
”Since Lexa was pretty nice to Clarke this Friday…I decided that maybe I should talk to Anya, see if we can end this stupid argument”
”Really?” Clarke wondered if she had won the lottery in life suddenly.
”Don’t get too excited, I am not sure if she wants to talk to me but I will give it a try”
”That’s awesome” Clarke smiled at her. ”Us being enemies wont help my campaign”
”You seem to be doing pretty well, people trust you here”
”I am not ready for the polls to start showing everywhere after christmas”
”I mean it’s bad and it’s good, if she’s ahead off you, you’ll know”
”Yeah..But people always prank with those things.”
”Don’t worry girl, we will do whatever we can too help you” Raven smiled at her.
”I know, glad I have you guys” Clarke smiled back at her.
”So Raven did you make any plans for christmas break?” Bellamy looked at her.
”I wanted too…” Raven got interrupted by sudden screams in the cafeteria. ”What the…”
”What’s going on?” Clarke looked around and saw a girl with big curly brown hair, standing with her arms in the air shouting while…wait Lexa? Was running towards her, they jumped into each others arms while Lexa lifted her up and spun her around a few times.
”What’s going on?” Octavia was just as confused.
”I recognize that girl…” Raven tried to remember.
”She looks so tanned” Clarke studied the girl, tried her best no to be jealous but she was.
”Does she go here?” Octavia wondered.
”YES, that’s Luna, she’s the girl Lexa used to hang out with” Raven finally remembered.
”When?” Clarke questioned her trying to not seem to intrigued.
”I am not sure but she went to the same science class as last year but only for a month or so, I remembered Lexa used to wait for her after class.”
”Only for a month?”
”I think her parents moved somewhere and she’s been studying from abroad”
”So she still goes here?”
”What kind off quiz is this” Raven chuckled. ”I guess so, she’s back?”
”Now that you say it, I remember a curly haired girl hanging with Lexa” Octavia looked at Raven.
”Right?”
”Maybe we just got confused since she got replaced by Costia?” Octavia laughed a little.
”Both curly hair…maybe she has a type” Bellamy shrugged. ”I didn’t pay that much attention but I am not sure I have ever seen her before”
”I should remember her” Clarke looked back to have another look at Luna, she was good with remembering the students here. However if she was only here for a month or so the first year and haven’t been back until now, it wouldn’t be so weird if she didn’t.
”That’s Luna yes, Lexa and her has known each other forever” Lincoln finally joined the conversation.
”Where you asleep at the first half of the conversation?” Octavia looked at him. ”You could’ve saved us some time here babe”
”Sorry..I was just, it’s been forever since I saw Luna” Lincoln told her. ”I will go and say hi”
”Umm…okay?” Octavia looked at him walk away, Luna greeted him with a big smile and they hugged each other. ”I keep forgetting that Lincoln didn’t grew up with us, I always learn something new about him”
”Isn’t that a good thing?” Clarke wondered.
”Yes, I mean it’s exciting and refreshing. Sometimes I just need a minute to process that he actually had a life before me” She laughed.
”Yeah…”
”Clarke, can I have have word with you?” Kane had walked by their table.
”Umm…yes of course” Clarke looked at him and tried to read if it was serious or not.
”Perfect” She followed him out of the crowded lunch hour to an empty little meeting room.
”So…” He closed the door behind her. ”I am just actually seeing if you are doing alright?”
”Yeah..why?” She was confused.
”Well, I got some red flags from your teachers. You are a bit behind and I am wondering if you are doing too much right now. I know you have all your extra classes, your work and now student body president..”
”I’m fine, what teacher is worried?” Clarke asked.
”Not teacher Clarke, teachers. You are not performing as you usual do…I am not saying that you are failing, I am just asking if this is too much for you?”
”I don’t know..I have done all my assignments.”
”But you are not getting A’s like you usual do…” Kane looked at her. ”I know you can’t quit your job but if you are falling behind I am afraid I can’t let you run for president”
”WHAT?” Clarke bursted out. ”No I will work harder Kane, I need this you can’t do that to me”
”I know you want this Clarke, that is why I am giving you a heads up…but I also don’t want you to burn yourself out”
”I…I have just been a bit distracted lately” Clarke sighed, she knew she hadn’t been studying as hard as before but she hadn’t realized it would affect her this bad. She might have rushed some homework but..it wasn’t bad?
”Just…You are an excellent student Clarke but we also care about your health and we know it has been a rough year for you. If this is too much no one will blame you”
”Kane I need this, I can do this.” Clarke said firm. ”I will not step down”
”I will keep an eye on you” Kane was serious.
Clarke needed to get back to her A game, she couldn’t let herself be careless about school - her future depended on it. She knew that Lexa had been a big part for her to be distracted…sadly she couldn’t let anyone get in her way.
Damn.
