Maybe

Art or Human Biology. That was the question that had been plaguing Clarke Griffin since she began University last Fall. Now an entire year later and it was time to make a decision. She went over the pro-con list in her head for millionth time. The applications for both Human Bio and Art sitting on the desk in front of her. She closed her eyes hoping for some kind of sign that told her what to do with the rest of her life, instead her phone began to ring.
Finn: Babe! Where are you?

Right that’s not how the universe works Clarke thought grumpily. She pushed her phone into her bag without replying, and began packing her stuff to leave the library and head back to her dorm. Finn could wait, he didn’t understand how serious of a life decision this was for her. He was just too willing to always live in the moment which was fun when they started dating three months ago, but it was losing its appeal. Clarke wanted more than to just survive she wanted to live, and not the live in the moment kind of live, but waking up happy, satisfied, content in where her life was going kind of live. She wanted more, she just had figure out how to get it.

Stepping out of the library it was freezing cold, she felt the goosebumps rise on her arms right away. To trek back to her dorm felt like a journey, one she wished she didn’t have to go on. Bracing the cold she walked the half mile to her room, only to find her roommate Octavia throwing her entire wardrobe everywhere including Clarkes very own bed. She felt her stomach filling with heat, she was just so tired and wanted to go to sleep, but knowing Octavia the past year she knew, sleep would be very far away.

Octavia was so engrossed in her mess making she didn’t even notice when Clarke walked into the room.

“O! What are you doing now!?”

Octavia jumped what seemed to be three feet in the air. “OH MY GOD Clarke! Don’t just go sneaking up on me like that!

She received a very convincing eye roll from Clarke, and a hand gesture to the room, as in what the hell?!

“So do you remember that hot guy we saw on campus the other day, tall tan, the sexiest and most intense face you have ever seen?”

Clarke pushed the clothes over on her bed and sat down trying to avoid tripping on shoes that were strewn everywhere. “You mean the guy you drooled over for five minutes and then wouldn’t shut the hell up about even though it’s been a week since you saw him and you have never once spoken to him or seen him again? How could I forget?” That response got her a shirt to the face and a triumphant looking roommate. She just stuck her tongue out in response.

“Anyway Griffin! Turns out my teammate Anya from Lacrosse is his cousin! I saw them talking this morning before practice. I thought they were dating at first which was such a blow. But when he left she walked by and told me to stop drooling over her family!” Octavia wiped her hand across her head dramatically, “that was a close one.”

Clarke rolled her eyes, “That still doesn’t explain how an apparent tornado has hit ur room and not the rest of the dorms.”

“I’m getting there!!! Anyway…. She mentioned there’s a party tonight and invited me to go, I was too embarrassed at first with all the drool on my face but then she said she would introduce me to her cousin. His name is Lincoln by the way. And I am inviting you Princess so let’s get it moving and get dressed.”

“Octavia Blake, do I have to? I just want to go to bed!”

“Oh no you need to make sure I don’t make a fool of myself, besides I want you to meet some of my teammates, you’ll like them trust me. You can even bring Finn if you want.”

Crap thought Clarke I never texted him back… She picked up her phone to see she had another text from him

Finn: Hey Princess, you forget about me?

Clarke: Hey Finn sorry, got distracted. Octavia is dragging me to a party :( Wanna come with?

Finn: Meet you in your room in 30.

Clarke looked up to see an expectant Octavia hovering above her. “Fine I will go but don’t expect me to enjoy it.”

“Yes! You will have fun everyone on the team is super nice and chill. Well Lexa is a bit uptight but I’m sure we can fix that with some alcohol, we will get some for you too or else you two might end up killing the mood together.” That earned her another eye roll from Clarke.

“Shut up Blake, I am being an amazing friend just by going,” she said while running her hand over her pillow longingly.

“The bestest friend!” Octavia agreed as she threw another shirt onto the floor.
