First Day
*Beep beep beep beep*
Clarke slams her hand on the table next to her bed hoping to shut off that awful noise. After a few failed attempts she opens her eyes and shuts off the alarm. The time reads 6am and Clarke is beginning to regret taking 8am classes. Clarke looks over at Raven, who is still peacefully sleeping, she has no idea how that girl can sleep through any noise.
Clarke decides to stay in bed a little longer and checks through her social media accounts. Once she's checked everything, she gets up and walks down the hall to go to the bathroom so she can wash her face and brush her teeth.
Coming back to the room, Raven is awake and sitting up on her bed.
“Morning roomie”
“You literally just got up, how are you so cheerful Raven”
“It’s our first day of classes, you have to be excited too”
“Oh I am excited, its just to early to show that excitement"
Walking over to her closet Clarke starts going through her clothes to pick an outfit. She wants to make a good first impression while also looking hot. She chose to wear jean shorts that fit her ass perfectly, a light blue tank top which brings out her ocean blue eyes and then to finish it off she wears her white vans. She then puts on light makeup and curls her blonde hair.
On the other side of the room Raven is getting ready for her first day. She's dressed similar to Clarke also wearing jean shorts, a black tank top and black vans. She decides to wear her hair up in a ponytail. Raven decides to put on light makeup as well.
“Rae you almost ready?”
“Yeah give me 2 more seconds then I'm done”
The two girls head out of their dorm and head to the english building where they have their first class. Clarke is a Biology major with an art minor, while Raven is an Engineering major. While they both have different majors, they've managed to take their general education classes together.
Upon entering the classroom, they choose seats next to each other near the back of the room. The desks slowly start to fill up by the time the professor enters. He writes his name on the board ‘Dr. Wallace.’ Right as the clock strikes 8, a brunette runs into the room and takes the only empty seat which is in front of Clarke.
The professor starts going through the syllabus, and Clarke and Raven are instantly bored. His monotoned voice is putting them, along with majority of the class asleep.
Dr. Wallace announces to the class that they should introduce themselves to the people sitting around them and get their contact information, in case they miss a class they can get the notes.
The brunette sitting in front of Clarke turns around and looks at them.
“Hi, I’m Octavia but you can call me O”
“Hey, I’m Clarke and this is my best friend Raven”
The three girls exchanged cell phone numbers and email addresses. They get to talking and the learn that Octavia is also a freshman and she is majoring in Criminal Justice.
“Which dorm building do live in?” Asks a very curious Raven
“I live in Arcadia hall” “Really? Thats where Clarke and I live!”
“Are you both roommates?”
“Unfortunately” Answers Clarke which earns her a slap on the arm from Raven.
“You know I'm only kidding Rae”
“Yeah I know, you love me too much”
Clarke rolls her eyes at the typical Raven response. Looking back at O,
Clarke asks “which floor do you live on”
“I live on the 3rd floor, in room 306”
Raven and Clarke both look at each other before turning to Octavia with grins on their faces
"Its nice to meet you neighbor, we live in 307!” says a very excited Raven.
The class ends and the girls agree to meet later to have lunch in the common. Clarke and Raven sadly do not have the next 2 classes together since they are major related. Two classes stand between them and the end of their day/lunch. Clarke has into to biology and then chemistry 1 while Raven has physics 1 and then an intro lab for her physics class. Halfway through her 3rd class, Clarke feels her phone vibrate in her pocket
RaeBae (11:30): ugh this lab is too easy, its gonna be a long semester
Princess (11:32): that’s what happens when you're a genius Rae
RaeBae (11:35) : It’s okay to be jealous Griffen
Princess (11:40): In your dreams Reyes.
Princess (11:41): See you at lunch
After putting her phone away, the rest of the lecture flies by for Clarke and then she is finally done with her first day of classes. She can already tell that this is going to be a difficult semester. Pushing those thoughts aside, she goes to the common to meet Raven and Octavia.
Arriving at the common, she sees Raven and Octavia already sitting at a table. She walks over to them.
“Hey guys”
Octavia and Raven both look up at her and smile. They all decide to get sandwiches from a nearby food truck and go back to the table in the common to eat. While eating, the conversations remain light but flow naturally.
Once they are done eating, they throw their garbage in a nearby trash can and remain sitting at the table talking since they are all done talking. Clarke and Raven share stories about their high school years and Octavia listens but also tells them her own stories. They learn that Octavia has a brother name Bellamy, who is in a Frat on campus but is also two years older.
Looking around the common, Raven sees 3 very attractive yet intimidating people standing by a table near the corner of the common.
“Hey O, do you know them over there?” Octavia looks to where Raven is pointing and smiles.
Raven takes this as a yes.
“The guy is actually my boyfriend, Lincoln. The girl with the blonde hair and perfect cheekbones is his sister, and the brunette with the cold stare is his cousin.”
Hearing what they are talking about. Clarke turns her head to look and see who they are talking about. At first she sees O’s boyfriend, and then she see the blonde and by the time she looks at the 3rd person, she feels like the wind has been knocked out of her.
Standing about 50 feet away from her, is that last person she expected to see. She is so shocked her eyes are wide and her mouth is hanging open. She doesn't know how to react.
Raven sees Clarke’s reaction and she’s doesn't understand why her friend is acting like that.
“Clarke are you okay?”
Hearing Ravens voice, Clarke blinks a few times and then answers with the only word that she can think of
“LEXA?”
