Octavia's plan

"Octavia, seriously, where are we going?" Lexa whined after almost twenty minutes of Octavia driving through narrow alleys, deliberately avoiding big avenues so Lexa couldn't figure out where she was taking her "Come on, I'm hungry"

Octavia rolled her eyes. It took them another twenty minutes to find a place to park, and when they did so Octavia half-smiled.

*Finally* Lexa raised an eyebrow

*Oh, believe me. It's worth the wait.* Octavia cockily grinned.

*Come on, O, where the hell are we?*

The other girl got out of the car

*You'll see*

Lexa rolled her eyes and followed her through a part of the city she hadn't yet been to. She was pretty sure they were in Brooklyn, yet she couldn't figure out exactly where.

*O, we've been in this town for less than two months and you already know all the creepy places?*

Octavia grabbed Lexa's hand, dragging her into a bigger alley

*Of course I do. That's my job* she winked.

Lexa pretended to be exasperated only to hold back a smile, yet she pouted when she sensed the familiar feeling of her stomach growling, and let go of Octavia's hand.

*O, did you hear that?*

*Nope.*

*Octavia.*

*Okay, yeah. You're hungry. I get it.*

Lexa furrowed her brow and stared intensely at Octavia, who sighed

*Let's find a McDonald's*

Lexa smiled widely as they walked into a bigger avenue. She still didn't know where they were, but at least they were going to have something to eat.

------------------------

Clarke fell asleep while she heard Raven rehearsing. It was obvious Rae was thinking about something else, since she kept slowing down and quickly picking up the earlier tempo, which she always did when she got distracted. Clarke smiled knowing Raven would eventually be desperate by her own inability to play properly and start studying much more...Intense pieces. And she sure hoped she'd be asleep by the time Raven was playing Shostakovich.

---------------------

After they'd eaten a less than healthy meal, Octavia rushed Lexa

*Seriously, O* Lexa had to stop signing while drinking her Coke *why do we have to hurry so much?*

*Because if we don't, we're gonna be late*

Lexa half-smiled *Late for what?*

Octavia rolled her eyes as they walked into a tall building. Lexa looked around, and realised they were in a theatre.

She'd only ever been once to a theatre before, and had grown so desperate from trying to watch the actors while a friend signed to her what they were saying that she'd never returned. She loved reading plays, but couldn't watch them, and Octavia knew that. She sighed and took a look around.

The floor was carpeted in a dark shade of red and the walls were black and covered with several framed posters.

*What the...* Lexa didn't understand a thing when they walked into a wide room and Octavia guided her to their seats.

*O...*

Octavia held Lexa's hands in her own

*Just watch this* with her head she pointed at the stage, letting go of Lexa's hands as the lights went off.

Then, an actor appeared on stage. Lexa raised an eyebrow, she really didn't get why Octavia would've taken her to a play. The actor began to speak and then she understood. Not only did he speak, but he also signed every single line of dialogue. Lexa looked at Octavia, moved. She'd taken her to a play she could actually enjoy. The other girl shyly smiled

*Jekyll and Mr. Hyde* Lexa smiled back

*I knew it was your favourite*
