Going home
I wake up to Clarke kissing me. After a second I start kissing her back.
"Good morning sleepyhead."
"Good morning indeed."
Clarke laughs before giving me one last peck and then heading into the bathroom. I get up and stretch before picking out some clothes and packing my bag double checking the room to make sure we don't leave anything. Then Clarke comes out of the bathroom so I head in. I wash my face and brush my teeth before grabbing my bathroom stuff and putting it in my suitcase. Clarke and I head downstairs to get some breakfast. Everyone is down there except Raven and Anya. We walk into the kitchen and are greeted by Jake and Abby.
"Good morning girls."
"Good morning dad."
"Good morning Jake."
"Hey girls what was all that noise you were making last night about?"
I turn and look at Clarke and her face is just as red as mine is. Before we can say anything Raven and Anya walk into the kitchen. I decide to veer the conversation in another direction.
"Morning Raven, Anya. How'd you sleep?"
"I slept good."
"I didn't a certain someone wouldn't stop kicking me and snoring."
"Sorry love."
Raven gives Anya a quick kiss on the cheek before opening the fridge to get milk out while Anya walks to the pantry to get some cereal.
"You leaving soon?"
"We'll leave around the same time you do princess."
"Raven you know I hate that name."
"Girls you still haven't answered my question."
"What was the question?"
I turn to Raven.
"None of your business."
"The question was what was up with all the noise they were making last night?"
Raven starts laughing and Anya spits out the cereal she had in her mouth so she wouldn't choke while laughing.
"Shut up Raven, like Lexa said it's none of your business."
Raven stops laughing and walks over to Abby and whispers in her ear
"Abby they were having sex."
Raven is a terrible whisperer so Clarke and I both hear her. Abby gasps dramatically before yelling
"Girls! That's not appropriate!"
Next thing I know Octavia, Lincoln, Bellamy, Murphy and Marcus are all in the kitchen. Octavia asks
"What's not appropriate?"
"Clarke and Lexa were having sex."
Clarke punches Raven in the stomach. Everyone is laughing except Abby who looks horrified. Clarke and I are both bright red but it's not like we can't deny it so we start laughing too. Finally Jake says to Abby
"Honey they're both adults and they're in love it's ok."
I guess that helped because Abby stops looking horrified. Finally everyone splits off to do their own things. Everyone is packing except for Clarke and I. Clarke finishes eating before I do so she goes to fetch our bags and load them up in the car. While I'm eating Abby comes and sits down next to me.
"I'm sorry I reacted badly to what Raven said but sometimes I still see Clarke as my little girl you know?"
"It's fine I get you."
"Please be safe."
"Abby I promise not to get your daughter pregnant."
We both laugh a little bit before I say
"We are safe."
Abby and I start packing turkey sandwiches for everyone and once we finish Clarke walks up and announces
"The car is all packed."
"Ok let's say our goodbyes."
First we say goodbye to Marcus, then Bellamy and Murphy. They promise to come over sometime. Then we say goodbye to Octavia and Lincoln. We won't see them again until Christmas because they're going to Florida for a few weeks for vacation and a business trip. Then we say quick goodbyes to Anya and Raven because they're coming over on Sunday. Finally we say goodbye to Jake and Abby.
"Bye mom, bye dad, see you guys soon, love you."
Clarke hugs and kisses them both.
"Goodbye Abby goodbye Jake, see you at Christmas."
Abby gives me a short hug and Jake gives me another bear hug like he did when we got there. Then we head out to the car. I opt to drive first and after about an hour Clarke nods off. We drive for a little while and then I pull into a Walmart parking lot and wake Clarke up.
"Why are we at Walmart?"
"It's Black Friday and we need a new tv and a new bed spread."
We hop out of the car and head inside. We get a new 50" flat screen and a nice gray bed sheet set. We also get some snacks for the road. As we're walking towards the checkout Clarke grabs a big pack of Reese's cups, each cup is half a pound.
"Clarke we are not getting that it's like 30,000 calories. And it's 15$."
"Come on Lexa please?"
"No we gotta eat at least somewhat healthy."
"Can I at least get normal Reese's cups?"
"Fine."
I sigh and Clarke grabs a normal pack of Reese's cups. We check out and load up the car. Clarke insists on driving so I let her. I must've fallen asleep at some point because when Clarke woke me up we were 5 minutes away from home.
"Clarke you could've woken me up you didn't have to drive all that way."
"It's fine, besides you look cute when you're asleep."
"So do you."
We park, Clarke gets our bags while I get the tv and some leftover snacks. We take the elevator and get into our apartment. It's 5 in the afternoon and we're starving so we order Chinese and once it gets there we eat it and watch a discovery channel show on squids. I love squids. I look at my phone and it's only 8 but Clarke is falling asleep and I'm tired too. I scoop Clarke up like a baby and carry her into our bed. I set her down and then take her socks off her. She hates sleeping in socks. Then I strip down and put on a pair of boxers and a sports bra. I cuddle up against Clarke. I give her a quick kiss before burying my face in the back of her neck and falling asleep.
