truth is... I am in love with you

Part 10

'Clarke.' The blonde girl turns around to face Lexa. She noticed her worried expression and tilted her head.

'What's up?' Clarke asked.

'Do you uhh wanna meet Titus and the kids who live with him?' Lexa asked.

'Of course,' Clarke said while she smiled. Lexa bit her lip. Clarke crawled over her bed and pulled Lexa closer. She kissed the woman she loved softly. She felt Lexa smile into the kiss. She pulled a way. A light giggle filled the room.

'It's late,' Clarke states.

'Hmm?' Lexa hums.

'You should stay the night. I still have clothes from you so you can't pull that excuse on me,' Clarke says. Lexa chuckled.

'It wasn't an excuse Clarke,' she says.

'Sure,' she says. Lexa rolls her eyes.

'Fine I'll stay,' the brunette says. Clarke smiles widely. She gets up and goes to her closet. She pulls an oversized shirt out of it.

'Put this on,' Clarke says.

Clarke looks down. It's 4 am. Lexa is asleep on her chest. The small snores leaving her make Clarke smile. Not long after that she falls asleep herself. Clarke didn't know Lexa was a cuddler in her sleep. Lexa didn't know herself either. Clarke chuckles when she feels Lexa wrap her leg around her body. She finds it quite cute.

The next morning Clarke wakes up from Lexa's alarm. Clarke groans. Lexa chuckles.

'I told you,' she whispers. Lexa rolls on her back.

'Yeah you told me,' Clarke whispered. 'but it's worth it,' she adds. Lexa smiles.

'You're a cuddler,' Clarke says with a smirk. Lexa rolls her eyes and throws her pillow at her. Once again giggles and laughter fill the room. Lexa gets up and takes off her shirt. Clarke crawls to the end of the bed. She hugs Lexa from behind and kisses her shoulder blades. She notices the tattoo on her back. She softly traces it with her finger. Lexa looks to her side. Clarke kisses her cheek.

Lexa buttons up her shirt and Clarke admires her from her seat in her bed.

'Stop staring and get ready for your classes,' Lexa says.

'You're making that very hard,' Clarke says. Lexa rolls her eyes.

'Fine,' she says.

Lexa walked into the bathroom and brushed her teeth. She chuckled when she thought back to the night before. She applied her dark red lipstick and fixed her hair.

'Why is Lexa baking pancakes in our kitchen?' Octavia asks.

'Because she's the best person ever,' Clarke says as she takes another sip of her coffee.

'Good morning,' Lexa said.

'How is she so awake already?' Octavia asked.

'Because I work and have to get up early every day,' Lexa says. She smiles.

'Clarke?' Octavia asks.

'Hmm?' Clarke hums.

'Your girlfriend is annoying,' Octavia says. Clarke chuckles.

'Here's your breakfast,' Lexa says.

'Thank you,' Clarke says.

'I have to go. I'm teaching my first class in an hour,' Lexa says.

'I have my first class in an hour,' Clarke says.
