Chapter 8
**Clarkes POV**
She was sitting on the beach staring at the sky. She doesn’t remember getting there but apparently she did somehow.
“That’s Orions belt, its my favorite. One of his stories says that he tried to pursue the Pleiades but Zeus didn’t approve so he turned them all into stars and to this day Orion is still chasing them across the sky. Guess we cannot always have what we want huh?” Clarke sighed.
“No we can’t and we just have to learn to deal with it, some things are just not meant to be.”
Clarke turned over trying to follow the voice, it was Lexa. She studied the way Lexa looked at the sky.
Clarke sat up, hovering over Lexa, she reached down and traced Lexas jaw, she swore it was made by Zeus himself. “Some things are meant to be though.”
Lexa turned and looked at Clarkes face, Clarke stared into those eyes, they were her new favorite color.
**Knocking**
“Clarke!!!!! Hello!!!! Wake up already!!”
Clarkes eyes snapped open and she half jumped half fell out of bed. She also managed to trip on her way to the door. She flung it open, “What the fuck Octavia you scared the shit out of me!? I was sleeping.”
Octavia walked past her and threw herself on her own bed. “Yeah I figured, I have called and texted you a million times, I didn’t have my keys, must of left them here yesterday when we left.”
Clarke just shook her head and made her way back over to her bed. She picked up her new teddy bear and studied it for a bit, she shrugged and got under her covers now cuddling the bear, ready to go back to sleep.”
She felt eyes on her though and knew Octavia was watching.
“Stop staring at me.” She rolled onto her to side to face the wall away from Octavia, but she still felt her staring.
“Clarke?”
“No.”
“I know why Lexa flipped on you.”
She contemplated ignoring Octavia and going to asleep, but she knew she wouldn’t be able to, curiosity always got the better of her. She groaned and turned over, opening her eyes waiting for the other girl to begin.
“Do you like girls Clarke?”
Clarkes eyes widened in response, definitely wasn’t expecting that.
“O, what? You know I have only been with guys. Besides I thought this was about Lexa?”
“It is.” Clarke crinkled her eye brows in confusion. Watching Octavia look around the room nervously. “Lincoln thinks you like Lexa.”
Clarke burst out laughing. “Wait what? I barely know Lexa! Yesterday was the first day we got along and even then we still had a fight. How could he think I liked her?”
Octavia was studying her, “You watch her Clarke, whenever she’s not looking at you, you rush to walk with her, and you always end up standing extremely close, like flirting close.”
Clarke was thinking about the day before, she could see what Lincoln did, but she was just friendly and always close to her friends, not that Lexa was a friend. Lexa was hot, who wouldn’t stare at her, even a gay guy could appreciate Lexa.
“He thinks she like you too, which is what he yelled at her about.” Clarkes stomach dropped, her heart started beating extremely fast and she felt her face growing hot. Did Lexa really like her? The idea made her smile a little until she saw O was still watching her. She shook her head no at the other girl.
“Didn’t Lexa say yesterday that she has a girlfriend?”
“She does…. You didn’t say you didn’t like her by the way.” O had a little smirk on her face. Clarke rolled her eyes.
“I am with Finn, and like you just said Lexa has a girlfriend, obviously we don’t like each other. Cant two hot girls get along without wanting to fuck each other?” With that she winked and turned back over pulling the bear close to her once again.
“Says the girl cuddling a stupid teddy bear, and hopefully you won’t be with Finn long anyway.”
Clarke ignored the comments and just shoved herself more under the covers trying to get away from Octavia’s annoying voice.
**Lexas POV**
She had to get up, it was seriously getting late, but her bed just felt so comfortable. Lexa knew if she didn’t get up at that moment that she wouldn’t make it to class. She sighed and rolled over.
It had been a long weekend, but a good one, she spent yesterday in bed, Raven came over and they just hung out. Saturday she spent with Lincoln and Clarke….
Lexa jumped out of bed at the thought of the Blonde. She had twenty minutes to get ready and make it to class which was a fifteen minute walk. She grabbed her phone to let the other girl know she was running late.
Lexa: Slept in be there a couple minutes late.
Clarke: I will save you a seat ;)
Lexa laughed at that text her stomach feeling warm.
Lexa: Like you have a choice.
She got dressed as fast as she could, throwing her hair up in a messy bun and putting her contacts in. She threw on skinny jeans and a school tshirt, throwing on her boots as she made her way to the door.
It was so damn cold outside she almost turned right back around, but she kept going anyway.
When she finally made it the classroom she looked around searching for Carke. It took her a minute to find the other girl because she was wearing a hat. Lexa arched an eyebrow it looked stupid from all the way back here.
She sat down next to the girl and looked at the hat. It was one of those animal hats that had the mittens all the way at the end. It was a raccoon. Clarke looked stupid.
Clarke looked up and smiled at her.
“You look ridiculous.”
Clarke eyes widened. She furrowed her brow and glared at Lexa.
“Hello to you too Rudolph.” Lexa frowned and touched the tip of her nose and just shrugged. She took out her notebook, Mr.Kane was off on some tangent but she could not concentrate, Clarke was swinging the damn mitten part of her hat around.
“Take the damn hat off Clarke, you're annoying me.”
Clarke glared at her watching Lexa as she continued to swing the mittens. Lexa was about to lose it, how can one person be so infuriating. She closed her eyes and began to count, that was until she felt something swing and hit her chest.
Her eyes snapped open to the Blonde whose eyes were watching her widely. Clarke snatched the mittens away and let them hang down, turning red and looking down at her book.
Lexa looked at her blank notebook, she couldn’t concentrate, she really didn’t want to be here. She rubbed her nose wondering if it was still red.
She looked over at Clarke who seemed to be falling asleep at her desk. Atleast she wasn’t the only one, Lexa put her head down, she was facing Clarke, who had most definitely fallen asleep. Her mouth was open, lexa grimaced at that wondering Clarke drooled a lot.
*Text message tone*
Both girls jumped at the sound of the phone, both of them scrambling to see if it was theirs. It wasn’t hers so Lexa relaxed as Clarke pulled her phone out shooting an apologetic face towards the professor. Lexa shook her head.
“Good job.” Clarke rolled her eyes and went through her phone.
Lexa was nosy, she knew she was so she subtly tried to see what Clarke was looking at. It was a message she couldn’t see who it was from only… miss you princess. Breakfast after class at… She rolled her eyes. She tried moving a little closer when all of a sudden she was on the ground.
She got up as fast as she could, her face turning red. Her eyes found the professors and she ducked her head down apologetically. But his eyes moved to Clarkes who Lexa noticed was dying of laughter, gasping for air.
“Ladies, is there something the whole class should know?”
Lexa sat down, “No sir, I just slipped sorry, please go on.”
He just looked at her and back to Clarke who was covering her mouth trying to muffle her sounds as tears ran down her face. He turned back to the board. Lexa kicked Clarke trying to get her to shutup already.
“Owww!” Clarke yelled.
“Ladies!! I think it would be best if you were to leave and come back Wednesday when you can concentrate and not be disruptive.”
Lexa just stared open mouthed at the professor and then to Clarke who was red in embarrassment, she got the point before Lexa did though and started packing her stuff up. Lexa put her stuff in her bag but she was seriously waiting for the professor to say he was kidding. She had no choice but to get up when Clarke grabbed her bag from her and made her way outside.
Lexa got up and followed Clarke who kept walking with her bag.
“Give me my bag.”
The blonde kept walking which frustrated her. “Clarke.”
And still the other girl kept walking. Lexa was done she jogged the couple of feet separating them and snatched the bag from Clarke, making her face her in the process.
“The fuck Griffin?!”
Clarke pushed her into a wall getting all into her personal space. “That’s for kicking me you ass.”
Lexa was ready to flip out she grabbed the blonde flipping them and slammed her into the wall, but still making sure not to actually hurt the girl. “Don’t ever try that again Clarke. I don’t actually want to hurt you. You were laughing at me it was my reaction to kick you, you saw how I was with Lincoln Saturday.” She was inches away from Clarkes face staring into her eyes, pinning Clarkes arms to the side, she saw the blonde glance at her lips while she spoke.
She let go of her and started walking away, “So what that was you being nice?”
She turned and looked at the Blonde who rolled her eyes, ‘Doesn’t matter Clarke I won’t ever put my hands on you again.” Lexa walked away trying to clear her head.
She didn’t think Clarke would react that way to her. She didn’t actually hurt her when she kicked her, she knew that. She would of done it to Lincoln, Anya, and especially Raven too. She must of just gotten a little too comfortable with the blonde, well that ended now. She was such a drama queen, did she really think she could take Lexa? Delusional.
**Clarkes POV**
Clarke huffed as Brunette walked away her heart beating so fast. She never felt anything like that, when Lexa threw her to the wall and got all in her face. If she was being honest she found it to be very hot. She shook her head at the thought, it was freaking Lexa Woods she wouldn’t let her mind go there, hell Lexa was a girl and Clarke didn’t swing that way. But her body was still reacting.
Clarke walked towards her room replaying the scene in her head. “Doesn’t matter Clarke I wont ever put my hands on you again.” Clarke pouted, shaking her head clear again. What the fuck was wrong with her?
“Princess!”
Those green eyes, so full of anger, and her lips so plump, Clarke couldn’t help but look at them while Lexa was talking, while Lexa was in control. She felt a tug on her arm when she got in front of her door. She spun around to see Finn out of breathe.
“Finn what are you doing here?”
“You never texted me back I missed you, so decided to stop by and check in on you.” He leaned down and kissed her lips.
She kissed back quickly and moved away, but then she thought a second and pulled him in for more, she needed more. Clarke felt so hot and bothered all of a sudden. She needed release.
She kept kissing Finn, his lips were soft, she thought Lexas would probably be softer, the thought made her moan, which caused Finn to press into her. She felt his erection on her hip. They unceremoniously made it into her room closing the door behind them. Clarke laid on her bed beckoning Finn to come closer, she took off her shirt revealing her lace bra, erect nipples clearly visible.
He walked closer to her and just watched in awe waiting for her. She liked the way he looked at her. “Finn, control me.”
His eyes looked confused. “What do you mean princess?”
She rolled her eyes at the nickname, it was not what she wanted at the moment. “Control me.”
He just stared at her and then looked at the floor like a lost puppy, “I don’t understand.” Clarke sighed shaking her head, this isn’t what she wanted. She grabbed her shirt and put it on, seeing Finns obvious disappointment.
“I’m hungry lets go get something to eat.”
“What about? I mean I thought we were going to you know?”
Clarke rolled her eyes, god boys were so stupid and immature. “I’m not in the mood, lets go.” She closed her room door after he stepped out and pushed her forehead against it sighing, at the longing she still felt between her legs knowing she would have to take care of it later herself. She turned and started walking after Finn.
**Lexas POV**
Another day another practice. Lexa as always was exhausted. Physically and mentally, she had been going over what happened with Clarke that morning over and over again. Why was the girl so damn sensitive? Lexa couldn’t be around people like that, it drove her crazy, she wouldn’t apologize every five seconds for being herself. Hell no.
She closed her eyes trying to relax when her phone rang. It was Costia. Lexa sighed.
“Hello?”
“Babe, I’m sorry it took me so long to call, Ive just been busy.”
“Costia…. Its Monday night, I sent that text Saturday night, you're seriously telling me, you couldn’t have called me until now?”
“I told you I was busy. Whats going on?”
Lexa sighed loudly making sure Costia could hear it.
“Lexa spit it out, stop brooding.”
She rolled her eyes. “Cos, are we still together? Let me know now, just be clear, because I hate being in limbo like this.”
“Lexa we aren’t in Limbo! Of course we are together what are you even talking about?! You're my best friend, I can’t lose you. You're always there, you’re the only person in my life I know I can always on.”
“So why can’t I ever count on you? You disappear for days at a time but expect me to be there for you at a moment’s notice. That’s bull and you know it.”
Lexa heard some background noise now, sounded like giggling, she was seriously getting annoyed and then she heard Costias muffled voice, she was probably covering the mouth piece.
“Costia!!”
“Sorry babe, look I will try harder and do better, I promise…. But I kind of have to go. Don’t be mad okay? I love you.” Lexa was ready to yell ready to throw her phone across the room when she heard the beep indicating Costia had once again hung up on her.
There was only so much of this she could take, she loved Costia yes, she was he best friend, how was she supposed to let that go so easily? But Lexa wasn’t weak and she refused to let herself be that way, she would give Costia another chance to do better, but if she didn’t then she would be done.
Lexa got up and went to shower, stopping in front of the mirror to study her face. She knew she was hot, she wasn’t always though. God she went through the braces, glasses and acne faze all at once. But then she was finally old enough for contacts, and then pubertly stopped attacking her skin, her teeth were perfectly straight. That’s when her Costia started dating.
Lexa sighed, she wondered if Costia would still want her if she still looked like that. She shrugged probably not. Lexa would get hit on a lot when she went out, and people usually gave her second glances, but she was cold she knew how to push people away. It was better that way anyway, people were annoying just like Clarke Griffin.
She got in the shower and began to wash her hair still thinking. Maybe she should just stop trying to play nice with the girl it wasn’t getting her anything in return. Maybe she should just keep it strictly about school. Maybe Clarke Griffin wasn’t worth the effort.
She went to bed and laid down when her phone buzzed. She groaned and looked at it.
Clarke: Sorry. See you Wednesday. Save you a seat :)
She stared at message confused, was this girl bipolar or what? She rolled over and closed her eyes trying to fall asleep.
**Clarkes POV**
She couldn’t fucking sleep it was driving her crazy. She tossed and turned grateful that Octavia was at Lincolns or she would of gotten yelled at for moving around so much. She couldn’t take it anymore, she laid on her back eyes closed. She knew what she needed.
Clarke lazily moved her hand up and down her chest going lower and lower each time until she reached the waist band of her shorts. She couldn’t tease herself anymore she needed it.
She dipped her fingers into her underwear and began rubbing circles, first soft and then slowly she got rougher and faster, she was panting, trying to be quiet. She closed her eyes trying to concentrate, taking her other hand and entering it into her shorts while the other was still hard at work.
She felt her wetness growing and growing, she dipped a finger in easily adding a second and began thrusting fast while rubbing her clit faster and faster. She was close, so close it was driving her crazy. She pictured herself being held against a wall with someone towering over her and it pushed her the little bit that she needed. She bit her lips trying silence the noises coming from her throat. She was panting as she came down from her high.
It felt so good, she sighed in relief as she got up to clean herself up real quick. She climbed into bed with a smirk on her face feeling so much better after being tense all day. She began drifting off while thinking of her fight with Lexa, maybe she had overreacted. She didn’t want to fight with her, there were seven weeks left to the class. She sighed and grabbed her phone, maybe she should make peace with the brunette.
Clarke: Sorry. See you Wednesday. Save you a seat :)
She put her phone down and rolled away from it smiling to herself, she could totally make things better with Lexa. She was stubborn like that, challenge accepted.
