Chapter 5
She wakes with a beep noise. And searched her phone to shut it down. But it wasn't her phone. Was when she realized the room she was in. Now with sunlight coming through the window it seemed more cozy and comfy, the plants looked more green and she noticed a poster she didn't before. She turned to see the girl move and take her phone, the noise stopped.
"Good morning" Luna said with a raspy voice. She turned to Raven and smiled. Fuck, Raven thought. The owner of the house got up and opened her curtains. She chose her outfit and asked Raven to do the same.
"Choose anything you like and get a shower, I'll be in the bathroom downstairs" Luna said leaving Raven. The brunette slided the clothes before choosing. She got a bath and dressed in blue destroyed jeans and a black sleeveless t-shirt. She thought it would look nice with her boots and the sun outside made her choose something fresh. She put her boots and tied her red sweatshirt around her waist. She started to put her hair up to do her ponytail when a dressed Luna stormed in. She was stunning, her hair was perfectly messy as always. She walked at her table and put all her rings in her fingers.
"Are you ready?" Luna asked while watering her plants, calmly. Raven let her hair fall, giving up to do the ponytail and nodded. Woods took her backpack, her phone and searched the room for something, after repeting the process until there's no plant to be watered.
"Did you take everything?"
"Yeah" Raven answered and followed her downstairs, her steps were slow and she used the wall support. Luna noticed it but didn't want to make it a big deal, she had seen the girl at school and there's some stairs too. Raven mentally thanked Luna for not saying anything. Once they're downstairs, she pointed for the latina sit at the kitchen island.
"Do you prefer coffee or tea?" The curly haired asked while she moved putting a lot of things on the table, there's bread, jelly, cake, juice, fruits, cereal and milk.
"Coffee" Raven answered and saw Luna put water to boil. She eats cereal with milk watching the peace that the girl moves through the kitchen, like she had all time in the world, or better, as the world just started when she decided so.
She finished the coffee and the tea, after minutes watching it pass through the coffee filters, and calmly put both on the table and sat across her. The great smell of traditional way to make coffee intoxicated the room as Raven watched Luna slid her hair behind her ears and lifted her cup until her lips.
"Where's Lexa?" Raven asked as she took a sip of her coffee to the girl in front of her blowing her green tea cup.
"She thinks it's better to sleep until there's almost no time than to wake as a normal person"
They're eating in silence when they hear a noise from upstairs. Raven turned to see Lexa running to the downstairs bathroom. Clarke was on her's, just like Luna did with her, she thought. She looked at Luna who just nodded and slowly drank her tea. She study with attention the girl put butter on her toast.
"Thanks, for last night" Raven said biting her lip right after as she regretted saying it, she really thought about ignoring and pretend that didn't happen, her ego yelled for doing it. Luna smiled, stopping her movement with the toast to glare at the brunette in front her.
"I usually-"
"You're welcome" Luna said, interrupting her, noticing her embarrassment . Raven tilted her head as she thought if she would ask or not.
"What were you singing?" Raven asked with her cup between her hands, enjoying the warmth of the black coffee on it. Luna smiled. Singing was an overstatement.
"It's a mantra or an old poem " Luna said, raising her shirt to show Raven a tattoo. On her ribs was a phrase probably in that language, Reyes thought, but tried to read out loud anyway.
Luna giggled, probably she had said everything wrong but she didn't mind it, she was busy confused, yesterday it seemed longer.
"It translates to I give myself to the miracle of the sea" Raven smiled and Luna put her shirt down again.
"It seemed bigger, you have a great voice by the way" Raven said stifling the last part by taking a sip of her coffee, Luna smiled glaring at anything at the table but Raven's eyes.
"That's just a phrase" Luna smiled thinking if she would tell "I was reciting a part of it" She saw Raven's expecting look and knew she would make her recite it, she just wondered if she wanted to tell her the translation.
" I give myself to the miracle of the sea, as the unpredictable waters reach me in and go, sun washing my face and the breeze, my soul; the waves hug me as my blanket, and the sand my warm bed" Raven stared at the curly one, her eyes drowning her in. She watched her think pausing a few times probably searching for the words to translate and sighed.
"The water's spirits welcome me as wave, free of the boundaries and worries that I left on the shore, in peace I hear the beautiful song, I thank you my lovely bird who guided my path" Luna top a sip of her tea indicating she had ended but Raven was still frozen on her stare, amused.
"I mean it's really a rough translation and a bit redundant but english doesn't have the words, it's prettiest on her original I guarantee" Luna said quickly.
"It's amazing"
Raven could only say before Clarke joined them with a smile. Raven raised her eyebrow, someone was in a great mood today. The blonde sat and greeted them already putting her coffee, as if it isn't the first time there. Luna got up and knocked hard on the bathroom door.
"You have five minutes then I leave" she threatened. Lexa left the room with a black pants, black all stars and a rumpled flannel over her shirt, she ran again, up the stairs.
Raven was just eating grapes waiting for the time that Luna's threat would end but then Lexa showed up with her backpack. Clarke smiled and tried to fix Lexa's clothes with her hands, obviously didn't work.
But it was cute, Raven thought.
"Everyday is the same" Luna explained rolling her eyes as she entered the car with Raven while Lexa was closing the door. Raven smiled and watched Luna put her glasses on her face. It just fit her so well, Raven thought. Lexa and Clarke got in the back seat and Luna turned the keys and they were on their way. As in the other day, Luna gave Raven her phone, and focused on the way to school.
"What did you just say?" Luna looked at Lexa in the mirror.
"I said you could have chosen a better car" Lexa said knowing it would get Luna mad.
"Don't you dare talk about that to this beauty" Raven was the one who said, that shocked the girls on the back seat. Luna laughed and gave Raven a high five.
"You could have yours if you passed the exam" Luna said without distracting from the road. Clarke looked at Lexa who smiled embarrassed. Luna saw Griffin with a confused look and explained.
"She failed the drive test three times"
"But there's a reason!"
Lexa tried to defend herself with a terrible story that just got everything even worse. All girls laughed about it the whole way until they parked into the Woods spot. Luna turned the car off and they left. Raven noticed the fact there's more people leaving the car and grabbed people's attention but Luna didn't seem to care. She walked with the girls right inside because the bell had rang already, thanks to Lexa's delay. Lexa and Clarke turned in the first hallway. Even if Lexa's class wasn't there, she was going to walk Clarke to her classroom. Argh couple, Raven thought.
"See you around" Luna said with a side smile as she took her sunglasses off. Raven just nodded and walked at her class.
That was an interesting morning.
