The misterious beauty
Clarke gets dragged to this boring even at this museum. She really doesn’t want to go but she owes her friend Raven a favour and she needs to go there because of her boss. She wants to look good so she uses this opportunity to dress up. She wears a red and tight dress, her hair alls on her shoulder like golden silk. As she arrives with Raven she looks around and all she sees are old people who talk about how much money they earned with the last big deal their company made. She already knows that this is going to be an incredibly boring evening.
“I hate you,” Clarke whispers while she walks next to Raven.
“Relax Griffin, maybe here’s a rich guy who will be impressed by me,” Raven answers.
Clarke rolls her eyes and goes to the bar to order a glass of vodka. She needs to be drunk for this. After two more drinks she hears a voice behind her. A cute voice with a very polite tone must be one of these arrogant ladies who orders a drink. As she slowly turns around to see the face to this voice, she looks into the most beautiful green eyes she’s ever seen and notices the young, super styled woman in this tight grey suit with matching high heels. She must be very successful in the fashion industry, Clarke thinks. The woman gets her drink and leaves immediately. Clarke gets up and slowly follows her through the crowd, trying to figure out where she goes. Her ass looks amazing in those tight pants and her long legs are almost better. Her long, brown, slightly curled hair just waves around her while she walks. Clarke finds Raven again and asks her who that mysterious woman is.
“Oh that’s Lexa Woods,” Raven says still looking at the woman, “I don’t know much about her but my company once tried to make a huge deal with hers, her conditions were just insanely high so we didn’t do it.”
Clarke cannot take her eyes off her, there’s something about her that takes her breath away. Should she talk to her? She just decides to go to the bathroom and check if she looks good. The blonde is looking in the mirror; she doesn’t realize that someone enters the bathroom as well. The dark haired woman checks herself out in the mirror and plays with her hair. Clarke is blown away by her appearance. She thinks of what Raven said, so she must be this tough business woman who is really hard to reach. Maybe she should say something to her.
“You must be Lexa Woods,” Clarke’s voice is a bit shaky but she tries to sound confident. Lexa didn’t even look at her before but now glances shortly at her.
“Why must I be Lexa Woods?” she asks in a cold voice.
“Well, I’ve heard a lot about you.” The tall woman doesn’t really pay attention to Clarke as she checks her image in the mirror once more.
“A lot of people heard a lot about me. So?” Lexa answers unimpressed. Clarke bites her lip. She seems very cold but so hot at the same time.
“I’ve heard your company is the host of this event. It’s a really impressing building and the vodka is pretty good too,” Clarke says a bit shy but this catches the brunettes attention.
She turns her head and looks at the blonde girl for the first time. Her eyes wander up and down her tight dress; her look almost seems to feel up her curves. Clarke doesn’t know where to look so she lowers her eyes.
“Vodka huh? Normally girls like you are more into lighter drinks,” Lexa says and raises one of her eyebrows.
“Girls like me? What do you understand under girls like me?” Clarke asks.
“They are boring mostly. What’s your name by the way?” Lexa asks in an almost demanding tone.
“Griffin, Clarke Griffin,” the blonde responds.
“Well Clarke Griffin, are you like most women?” This question makes the other girl look up directly into her eyes which seem to darken now.
“Well, Lexa Woods, no. I am not,” she says, starting to get more confident now. Lexa licks her lips and still looks at Clarke.
“Who invited you to my party?” she asks.
“My boss told me to go. I wouldn’t call that an invitation,” she replies in a colder tone.
Lexa looks slightly bored, still, her interest seems to grow a little.
“So if you said ‘No’, you would’ve been fired?” Lexa asks.
Clarke clears her throat, “Probably.”
And then Clarke sees it. Once corner of Lexa’s lips goes up a tiny bit and she raises an eyebrow again. Was that a smile? Clarke is so fascinated by this beautiful woman.
“How childish,” Lexa says.
Clarke is surprised by this, “so you would have accepted a ‘No’?” Clarke wants to know.
The other woman gives her a dangerous look, “I NEVER accept a No.” This gives Clarke goose bumps all over her body.
“I should probably go back to the party. Otherwise my boss will think I left without telling her,“ Clarke changes the topic and looks right in Lexa’s eyes as she walks pass her and leaves the bathroom.
She can feel the tall woman’s eyes on her as she opens the door of the room. While she walks through the crowded hall she still feels dizzy from this intense conversation with such a woman. She doesn’t know why but there’s something about her that scares and attracts her at the same time. She tries to shake it off and tells herself she just had too many drinks. After she found Raven, she attempts to make conversation but her thoughts always wander back to these intense green eyes. She has the feeling that they still watch her, Clarke looks around and there she is. A few metres away from her, she stands in a circle with other people who seem to talk with each other but Lexa has only eyes for her. She stares right at Clarke without looking away for a second while she sips at her drink. Her look seems almost hungrily but Clarke holds her stare and even manages a little smile. As if she was that easy.
