Neighbors

My house was lonely and cold with no one home. I have gotten use to it over the years but still I have to go outside and take a breather. I take my sketch pad and pencil with me as I make my way out back. The sun was bright and warm which took away the goosebumps on my skin. I head straight to my tree where I climb to the first big lime that I set up on with my back to the tree's trunk.

I was only sitting there for ten minutes till I over heard screaming coming from the house next door. A tall thin but muscular girl with long brunette hair stormed out of the house's back door. She was my age and was also a senior at my school who so happened to be the captain of the school's soccer team that hardly ever lost. I couldn't help but think how hot she seemed when she was angry. How she carried herself up high and the fire that raged on in her eyes as if at war. She had a look as if she could kill a man or has she.

She through a soccer ball up in the air, spun her whole body before kicking the ball that was still in the air with all her might. The ball went flying with full force of our joined fence and before I knew it was coming straight for me. I fell out of the tree with a thunk to the ground which was actually pretty loud and I could only just hope I hadn't broke anything.

"What the fuck?" Was all I could say with confusion.

The brunette jumped the fence and was by my side in seconds. Her anger training to complete concern.

"I'm so sorry! I didn't know anyone was near. I shouldn't have lost control like that. I'm so sorry!" She started saying.

"How could you have known." I statied, looking up at the tree I just fell out of then back at her with a small smile. The smile seemed to tell her everything was fine and she relaxed.

"Why were you in that tree any ways?"

"I was drawing. I like to climb it to see things from a different place. Plus it gets me a little farther away from the lonely depressing house I live in." I told her shyly as I confessed to her.

"Yeah, I like to practice soccer out here or workout when I fight with my mother." The thought of her working out made me blush.

"Yeah that kick was pretty killer. I can see why you're the captain of the team." I said as I rubbed my side where the ball had struck.

"I'm really sorry." She said shying her eyes to the ground. I grabbed her hand that was next to mine on the ground to reassure her.

"It's all good. Nothing broken see." I said as I stood up still holding her hand pulling her up too. "It will probably leave a sick bruise but it's all good." She still wouldn't look me in the eyes so with my index finger I shifted her head up to look at me. "I'm okay, really."

She just smiled which I gave back to her before saying, "you know you're really hot when you're angry, like really hot! But I think I like you more like this." She blushed at what I said and smiled wider. I took a step closer to her and grabbed her other hand and my other one.

"It's okay!" I reassured her before placing a kiss on her cheek.

"Hey Griffin! Where are you loser. You better not be in that tree cause I'm not climbing up there to get your ass out." A voice yelled as the girl who said it stopped dead in her tracks eyes widen and a grinning side to side. The girl broken the other two apart.

"Oh, um hey Commander." She said to the captain who just nodded in her direction.

"I better go. I'm glad I didn't hurt you too badly, Clarke. I am truly sorry!" She before turning around and making her way back to her yard the right way, instead of just jumping the fence.

I glared at the girl who just interrupted me and her before calling after her. "Hey Lexa wait." And I ran after till I caught up with her out of sight from the other girl. I grabbed her arm softly to stop her which worked she turned to face me her green eyes baring into my sky blue ones.

"Yes, Clarke." She asked when I didn't say anything. I was too busy drowning in her image.

"I glad that ball hit me!" I said smiling as wide as I could before leaning in and capturing her lips in a soft kiss. She stiffen with the contact but soon relaxed as she kissed back. The kiss turned passionate as we both grow more egear. Her tongue ran along my bottom lip asking for permission to end which I granted and our tongues began to fight for dominion. A small sound escaped my mouth with pleasure which drew me out of what was happening. I slowed the kiss and lightly nipped at her bottom lip which drew out a sound from Lexa's lips. I pulled back and pushed our foreheads together taking a breather.

"See you around?" I asked which Lexa answered with a kiss that told us both that we will definitely see each other around. I pecked her lips with a quick kiss before walking away.

"Now you have to join the team Clarke!" The girl standing in my backyard said as I walked back in. "Maybe the commander can teach you a few things besides the sexual stuff!"

"Fuck off Octavia! You know just how to ruin a moment." I told her.

"Yeah but you know just how to pick it back up!" She said as we both walked into the house.

"Like I said O, fuck off!"
