This is our family - The 100

Ch.12 shop 'til you drop

***SHOPPING TIME!!!***

"Oh my god oh my god oh my god!!!!" Octavia screamed as Raven drove them to IKEA. "We can get whatever the hell we want!!!!" First a couch, a rug, a dinner table, bar stools for the island, white marble counter tops for the island, a bar, a tv stand and a flat screen tv. Then we can accessorize with book shelves and stuff. Maybe a few paintings oh we need industrial sheek lights. What else? Oh yeah! Beds! Chairs, comforters, a washing machine and dryer, new fridge and stove.

"That's a ton of stuff." Octavia said.

"Ok first we get the beds. Then the couch and we work our way through the list from most important to least important."

"Do you think they have professional shoppers to help us? Some places have that." Octavia asked.

"Huh we should talk to the manager." Clarke said.

When they got to IKEA they did just that. They went straight to the manager. They told him what they needed and he set them up with a interior designer, Harper. She was super cool she was early thirties and was really cool to just hang out with.

"Oh my god this is gonna be so much fun!" she told the girls. "I always get old rich guys who have no style at all so usually I do everything for them and they pay."

They laughed. "We have a rustic open brick place and I really want to play that up but also keep it cool and classy." Raven said. "First we need the basics though" Clarke added. We need 6 no 7 queen beds and box springs with the frames. And sheets for all of those and a comforters." She nodded and Clarke continued. "We need a cool couch that could easily sit 7-10 people. And we can start with that." She chuckled because that wasn't even close to all they had to get.

Ok let's go to the beds. She lead them to the beds. These are the queens. She pointed to a couple of beds. Octavia sat on each one. I think this one she said after she tested them all. The other girls did the same. "Yeah." I think so too Raven agreed. "Ok 7 oh these please." "I'll talk to the moving guys to get all your stuff to your building. You want basic box springs and frames with those too right?" "Yeah." They nodded.
"Ok. Now bedding?" "Yup" Octavia smiled. She lead them to the variety of quilts. They picked down comforters for everyone and them picked their quilt covers. Octavia got a bright blue and purple design that reminded her of a butterfly. Ravin got a orange red and grey one it was cool. She said she liked it because it reminded her of fire and smoke but in a good way. Whatever that meant. Clarke a royal blue one which she said she liked. She liked it because it reminded her of the time she didn't have a coat and Bellamy gave her his.

It was a royal blue quilted stitched one. It was way to big for her when she was little and everyone always looked at her weird. She didn't care though because it smelt like him. She refused to get a new one when Bellamy took them shopping so after an hour of fighting Bellamy had to buy a new coat and she kept his. She still wore it. Only now it fit. She didn't tell the other girls that though.

They picked out quilts for the boys too. Monty,Jasper, Bellamy and Miller. Monty got a dark grey one, Jasper a khaki green, Bellamy a bright orange one because it reminded Clarke of him for some reason and Miller got a dark Navy blue.

"Now a couch!" Ravin said. "Ok over her Harper said. I think you should get like a dark grey and then have cool through blankets." "Yeah I like that!" Octavia grinned. They picked a 'U' shaped couch. Or more like a rectangle missing one side. They picked a couple knitted colourful blankets. Grey, white, red, green, and black. So everyone could have a blanket over them if they wanted. A blanket could cover more than one person. "Ok we also need a rug." Clarke said.

"How about a faux white fur area rug it would look so cute then on top of that a glass coffee table that we can dress up with books and cute coasters and stuff?" "That sounds so cool. Your really good at this." Clarke said. They bought exactly that. "Ok on our list is bar stools for a island we have and a white marble counter top to go on it." Raven said looking at a piece or wrinkled paper. She shoved it back in her back pocket.

"Okay. I can make an appointment for guys to come to your house and measure your counter top lets do the stools first. The counter top will probably be ready next week sometime." "Awesome!" Clarke said. They picked stools made of what looked like scrap metal. They had high backs. It was cool they were all slightly different. They took 7. They all fell in love with them right away.

"Now lights." Octavia said. "We want something cool and rustic." "I know get these cool bulbs we have and use those in a hanging chandelier. They are cool because they look like something you would find in a mine." She showed them and they decided. Harper was defiantly the best at what she did.
They also bought industrial sized washing machine and dryer a fridge and dish washer. It was getting late they had been there almost all day. They just needed a few more things.

"Now we need a tv stand and a flat screen tv." Clarke said. They got a black one with lots of storage so,the guys could store all their video games in there. They also bought a matching book stand to put their rather large board game collection. "Thank you so much Harper it was a lot of fun!" They thanked the girl. "No worries it was fun for me too I love how you guys have a whole building to yourselves! So smart! The moving guys will get all your stuff in the truck and follow you back to your place. And they can get it all in too." Harper explained. "Thank you." They all said. When they got home Miller had moved his stuff in to his new room.

Clarke ran over to Bellamy and gave him a big kiss. "You won't believe how much stuff we got!" "What the hell when this happen?!?!" Miller asked. "Yesterday morning." Octavia said. "It was just a matter of time we all knew it." "Shut up O." Bellamy said smiling.

The movers walked in a few minutes later.  "Hi we are moving all your things in." "Yes. Hi. Thank you." Clarke greeted them. "What do you want in first?" "We should get the fridge in then the washing machine." "Okay." The man turned to the other guys instructing them.

Luckily the doors were really wide so it was no problem. "Hey Miller can you and Monty take all the stuff off the fridge and figure out how to work it?" Clarke asked. "Sure." Miller agreed.
Monty followed him into the kitchen.

"I think we should have the washer and drier on the first floor." She told Bellamy. There were 4 floors but so far they were only using the lobby and the top two floors. The first floor was where the original washer and dryer were. They might be able to add in counter tops and stuff later like a laundry mat. "Yeah." Bellamy agreed.
The movers did just that and were even able to hook it up, so it was working. Now 7 beds. By now it was 10:00 pm.

The movers took all the beds to the appropriate rooms and comforters were put in the lobby. They brought in the couch the disassembled bookshelf and tv stand. Then the cool drop ship chairs. Or at least that's what Raven and Octavia had started calling them. The rug and coffee table was also dropped off in the lobby last but not least was the cool chandelier which Bellamy was able to quickly install.

Raven had gone to help Monty and Miller. Octavia was delivering all the comforters. And Jasper was up with Octavia attempting to put together the frames. Luckily Bellamy and Miller were handy and knew how to do that.

Bellamy looked at Clarke. "I love you princess" he kissed her neck. "I love you too Bell." She said looking him in the eyes. "Come on the tv stand and bookshelf aren't going to build themselves." He laughed.

After 4 hours and a lot of alcohol. They finished the two. Miller, Raven and Monty had set up the fridge and washing machine then headed up to undo all Jasper's handiwork on the bed frames. The beds were done washing machine, washer, dryer, fridge,tv and tv stand and book shelf. There was also 7 exhausted young adults sleeping on the couch. All covered in colourful blankets. Limbs were everywhere all tangled together. This was it. Their family.
