Returning Home
Lexa glanced over to Clarke who was currently leaned back in the passenger seat of her truck sound asleep. After a few rounds of passionate love-making the two had finally drifted off to sleep around three in the morning only to be awoken by Octavia banging on the door demanding more blueberry pancakes at seven that same morning.
Once Clarke finally obeyed the brunette’s demand for pancakes and everyone ate the group all began to pack up their belongings and locked up the house before hitting the road back to Los Angeles. Lexa had offered to let Bellamy and Anya ride with her and Clarke in her truck but they both declined, Anya stating that ‘you lovebirds need time to yourselves’ which only made Lexa punch her in the arm.
And that’s what brought her to be in this moment, staring at the blonde sleeping beauty next to her. Clarke had continued to doze off every five minutes before Lexa had finally told her to get some sleep. The doctor happily obliged but not before reaching out and taking Lexa’s free hand that sat on the armrest of her driver’s seat.
Lexa looked down at their entangled fingers and gently picked them up and placed a gentle kiss on the back of Clarke’s hand. Clarke inhaled deeply before rapidly blinking her eyes to remove the haziness of sleep before looking over to Lexa.
“How long was I asleep?” Clarke looked out the window in search of any familiar landmarks.
“A good while. We’re on the outskirts of LA about thirty minutes away from out apartment. Anya called saying they already made it home,” Lexa informed.
“That’s because Lincoln drives like a bat out of hell. I will never ride in a car with him again,” Clarke laughed out.
“That’s part of the detective thing. We normally drive a little crazy during emergencies or during chases.”
“Well, that’s when you’re on duty. Not when you’re driving someone to meet your friends to get coffee, and plus you’re a detective and you’re not driving nearly as bad as him,” Clarke gave Lexa a pointed look.
“You got me there. I guess Lincoln is just a crazy driver in general.”
Both women laughed before continuing to let the small talk flow through the once quiet truck. Time seemed to pass them by in a flash because before either of them really knew what was happening Lexa was pulling into a parking spot in their apartment complex parking lot.
Clarke was the first one to jump out of the truck and had opened the back door and grabbed both of their bags before Lexa had time to protest. Coming around the front of the truck to stand next to her Lexa huffed in annoyance as she stared at the bags in the Clarke’s hands.
“ I could have gotten them. I know you’re still tired from last night.” At Lexa’s words and her sultry grin Clarke blushed before looking down and scuffing her shoe on the concrete sidewalk under her.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, Lexa,” Clarke said playfully confused.
Right before Clarke could look up Lexa stepped up to her before drawing up her hands to wrap around the blonde’s waist and pull her hips to connect with hers.
“So you’re telling me you don’t remember the way my lips trailed right down your neck before going down to take a very sweet tasting breast into my mouth?”
While speaking Lexa had ghosted her lips over the column of Clarke’s neck making her breath hitch in her throat. Smirking into the distracted blonde’s neck Lexa let her hands fall from her waist before slowly reaching down towards the handles of their bags before snatching them out of Clarke’s hands and backing up. Lexa let out a full blown belly laugh as Clarke looked to her with a gaping mouth before looking down at her hands where the bags had previously been seconds ago.
“You should pay more attention to your surroundings, Clarke. Someone could sneak up on you while you’re so distracted,” Lexa teased.
Clarke let her hands fall to her sides,“Well when someone decides to whisper dirty little things in my ear it’s kind of hard to focus.”
“Maybe if you had let me grab the bags I wouldn’t have had to use my ‘dirty little things’ against you.”
As Lexa spoke Clarke walked past her towards the stairs and walking up a few stairs before stopping and turning around to look at Lexa who still stood on the sidewalk. Lexa watched as Clarke looked around and assumed she was seeing if anyone was in the area before turning back to look at her with a devilish smile.
“I guess it’s only fair that I get a little payback then.”
As Clarke finished her sentence she hands slipped under the floral printed sundress and hooked her fingers around the edges of her pink silk panties before slowly lowering them down and taking them off completely. Lexa felt her throat run dry as Clarke twirled the tiny scrap of material around her finger, all the while staring straight into Lexa’s green eyes.
Lexa darted from her spot on the sidewalk to the stairs only to have Clarke run ahead of her up the remaining stairs to Lexa’s floor. As Lexa finally reached her apartment she could see Clarke leaning against the door still holding her panties in her hands.
“Well, are you going to stand there gawking or are you going to open the door and take me inside?”
Lexa swiftly unlocked her door, pushing Clarke inside, and dropping their bags hazardously onto the hard wood flooring. Before Lexa could fully turn around in search for the blonde, Clarke had already pushed her up against the door and connecting their lips together in a searing kiss.
Clarke pulled away slightly and looked Lexa in the eyes,“Last time you lead. Now, it’s my turn.”
Lexa let out a small, surprised yell as Clarke gripped her ass and hoisted her up to wrap her legs around her slim hips before making her way towards the couch. Lexa continued to kiss Clarke as she lowered them both to the couch, successfully allowing Lexa to straddle her. As Clarke hands inched their way up her back Lexa ran her tongue along her bottom lip asking for entrance to the blonde’s warm mouth.
Clarke granted her access to her awaiting mouth and Lexa felt a jolt of electricity run up her spine as their tongues collided in a powerful dance of dominance. With the electricity running up her spine only getting stronger by the minute Lexa couldn’t take it any longer. She hastily jumped off Clarke’s lap before pulling her up and ridding her of all her clothes in mere seconds.
“You were taking way too long so I had to remove those pesky little things myself,” Lexa smirked as she quoted the blonde from the yesterday.
Clarke giggled before helping Lexa shed herself of her own clothing before once again being pulled into an open mouthed kiss by the hasty brunette. Moans bounced off the apartment walls around them as they hungrily devoured each other’s mouths while making their way to Lexa’s bedroom. Lexa didn’t bother switching on the lights as she backed herself and Clarke towards her neatly made bed.
Clarke pulled away as they came to a stop at the edge of the bed and placed her hands atop Lexa’s shoulders and putting gentle pressure on them so she would lower herself onto the fluffy mattress. As she fully lowered her back to meet the cotton material of her comforter Clarke slowly crawled up her body, leaving light butterfly kisses across her kiss as she went.
“Now it’s my turn to make sure you feel the intense pleasure you made me feel last night,” Clarke said as she gently nibbled on the skin under her ear.
Clarke made true to her word and before long both woman were laying under the thin sheet on Lexa’s bed trying to slow their labored breathing. Lexa rolled onto her side and propped her head on the hand as she looked down at a sweaty Clarke while playing with a lock of golden hair with her free hand.
“It feels like I’ve known you my whole life, Clarke. It doesn’t seem at all like we’ve only just met four days ago. There’s already so much I know about you and you know about me.”
Clarke rolled over slightly to face Lexa before lifting a hand and pushing a lock of dark brown hair behind her ear,“I feel like we should have met ages ago but I guess fate had other ideas. I mean with sharing the exact same friends we were bound to meet sometime, if not sooner than later.”
Lexa nodded her head in agreement before leaning back and looking at the clock on her bedside table that read ‘8:30 p.m.’.
“Well it looks like we’re a little passed time for dinner. Are you hungry? I can make us some pizza if you’d like,” Lexa suggested.
Clarke let a dazzling smile overtake her features,“Wow, sex and dinner. You’re treating me like a real princess.”
Lexa rolled her eyes playfully before throwing the sheet off her bed and walking over to her dresser to pull out two pairs of shorts and two t-shirts. Once dressed she turned back to Clarke, who was now sitting up in the bed, and threw the set of clothes to her before walking to her door.
“Put those on and I’ll get everything ready to make the pizza.”
Without waiting for a reply Lexa made her way down the hallway, bypassing her living room which was littered with clothing, and into her kitchen to rummage her fridge for everything they would need for a perfect pizza. After filling her hands with ingredients she shut the fridge door with her foot and turned to place everything on her kitchen island only to stop in her tracks at the sight across the room.
Clarke came strutting into the open room wearing nothing but the t-shirt that she had given her. The shirt clung to her every curve perfectly, stopped mid thigh and left little to Lexa’s imagination, not that she hadn’t already seen everything the beautiful doctor had to offer. As Clarke looked up she caught the look that had settled over Lexa’s face and gave her a smirk.
“Like what you see, Lexa?” Clarke tilted her head slightly with smug eyes staring at the speechless brunette.
Lexa cleared her throat before setting down everything in her hands on the island,“Actually, yes I do. But if you want dinner then I suggest you stop looking so delicious and come help me make dinner.”
Clarke made her way over to stand next to Lexa before leaning closer to whisper in her ear,“If I look so delicious then why don’t you just have me for dinner?”
Lexa gulped down the large lump that had formed in her throat at Clarke’s words,“As much as I would love to neither you or I have had anything, food wise, to eat since early this morning. And I’m pretty sure our special actives have made you very famished.”
After exchanging twin smirks they both got to work helping each other make the perfect homemade pizza. About an hour and a small flour fight later both women were happily munching on their California style pizza and watching Supergirl while cuddled together on Lexa’s couch.
As the credits began to roll signaling the ending of another episode Lexa looked down at the blonde currently leaning her head on her shoulder. She lightly smiled as she realized the Clarke had silently dozed off in the middle of the episode.
Lexa gently shook her shoulder,“Clarke, wake up. The show is over. Why don’t we go to bed?”
“I’m to tired to move, Lexa,” Clarke mumbled out,“Carry me?”
Lexa let out a short laugh as Clarke held out her arms waiting for Lexa to pick her up. She stood up before lifting the doctor bridal style and walking away to her bedroom. Upon entering her room Lexa pulled down her comforter and sheets before placing a half asleep Clarke into her bed and tucking her in. After taking in the sight of the beautiful woman sleeping in her bed Lexa turned to walk away before feeling a hand take ahold of her wrist and looked back to see Clarke looking at her through heavy lidded eyes.
“I have to be up for an early shift tomorrow. Can you wake me up around seven?”
Lexa smoothed back Clarke’s hair and placed a gently kiss on the center of her forehead before responding,“Sure. I have to be up around the same time so don’t worry. You get some sleep.”
Lexa heard a ‘thank you’ slip from Clarke’s lips before she once again fell into a peaceful slumber. Lexa shut off the bedroom light before walking back into her living room and picking up her and Clarke’s plates off the coffee table and bringing them to the kitchen sink. Once her kitchen showed no signs of their little flour fight Lexa made her way around her living room picking up all the articles of clothing scattered around it.
When everything was all tidy Lexa made her way back to her bedroom to see Clarke had migrated to the center of the bed with her hand outstretched in front of her, no doubt in search of Lexa’s body. She quickly slipped into the sheets before pulling Clarke close to her body and allowing her to rest her head on her chest. Lexa ran her hands through Clarke’s golden silk locks as she felt oncomings of sleep take hold of her and before long she drifted under into a dreamless sleep.
