Lexa's POV

I wake up to my phone ringing, I sit up and answer it without looking at who it is.

"Hello?"

"Hey it's Octavia"

"Octavia why the hell are you calling me? What time is it?"

"Woah someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning, and it's 9:03"

"Octavia what do you want?"

"Well I was wondering what you were doing tonight because Bell and I are gonna throw and a party"

I thought about it for a moment before speaking. "Sure I guess, I have nothing better to do. Oh and is Clarke gonna be there?" Honestly I didn't mind parties and knowing Octavia there will be alcohol, I'm kinda in the mood to get drunk anyway.

"Awesome, be there at 8 pm. And to answer you question, yes Clarke will be there. Are you gonna finally make your move?"

"I don't know I really like her but you know what happened last time I was in a relationship.." Octavia is one of the few people that know about my last relationship with my ex girlfriend, Costia. We met in 6th grade and we were friends for about 2 years, when we finally realized we loved each other and dated for about a year when she cheated on me then left without saying another word. I loved her so much and for her to do that to me just broke me. Costia was the first person I loved, even though she hurt me I think I will always love her. I haven't had a relationship since or even liked anyone but that all changed when I first saw Clarke. I first noticed her on my first day of high school, it was also my fist day in a new town, Arkadia. I soon made friends with Octavia who also happened to be friends with Clarke, even though I've known Octavia I've never actually had a full conversation with Clarke, mostly because I was to nervous or scared.

"That was almost 3 years ago Lex, come on we're in our last year of high school, live a little. Tonight I'm forcing you to talk to Clarke so go look in the mirror and memorize some words to say to her. I'll talk to you later bye!"

"Ok cya later O" Maybe Octavia was right I need to let my walls down, have some fun for once.

It was about 7:45 at night and I was just finishing getting ready to go. My parents are almost never home because of the business they own. We are pretty wealthy from the business but honestly I hate all the money because it brings so much attention to our family. On the news or magazines we have to act like the happiest family alive when in reality we're the most damaged and broken family ever. We barely even talk to each other, I'm mostly alone in our house anyway because they are always gone on business trips. At least I have our maid Indra, she looks after me, almost like a second mother.

By the time I get to Octavia's house it's 8:00 exactly. There are quite a lot of cars in the driveway and I could here the music coming from inside. I knock on the door three times before Octavia answers. She smiles wide and pulls me into a hug, there are already a lot of people here maybe about 50. I pull away from the hug after a few seconds.

I half yell over the music "is Clarke here yet?"

" no not yet, she should be here any minute though. Go get yourself a drink from the kitchen and relax until she gets here"

"Alright thanks O" I needed a drink if I was gonna talk to Clarke tonight.

I made to the kitchen and found the red solo cups, pouring myself a drink. Since I didn't want to be drunk for my conversation I was gonna have with Clarke I only had a beer. I was talking with some friends, Nyko, Lincoln, Gustus, and Luna when I heard Octavia's brother, Bellamy yell "HEY EVERYONE, CLARKE IS HERE" he was clearly wasted.

Everyone turned their heads for a few seconds to look at the doorway where Clarke was standing with her friend Raven. Clarke looked extremely annoyed by Bellamy's shouting, I think Bellamy noticed because he scurried away like a scared puppy. I noticed I was still staring at Clarke when her bright, ocean blue eyes met mine. She looked so beautiful, her blonde hair hanging in loose waves, she was wearing a black vintage pocket tee with black skinny jeans and leather boots. Where I was wearing a leather jacket with a loose white tee, black jeans, and I was also wearing leather boots.

I snapped out of my daze when I heard my name being called by Lincoln.

Clarke's POV

About an hour passed since I first arrived at the party, I was still waiting for the right time to talk to Lexa but she was talking to 4 other people which I'm guessing are her friends.

I felt someone tap on my shoulder, I turn around and am met a shit-eating grin.

"Hey Bell, nice party"

"Hey Clarke" he slurred "wanna dance?"

"No I'm ok here Bellamy, but thanks" I didn't want to deal with a wasted Bellamy, he can be really annoying.

"Oh come on Clarke" he grabs my arm a little bit to rough "live a little"

"Ouch Bellamy, let go you're hurting me!" I yelled trying to get him off of me. That's when I heard th most beautiful voice knowing it could only be one person, Lexa.

"Hey dick, do you not understand what no means?" Bellamy quickly let go of my arm, probably because he was scared of that almost commanding voice, I was even scared. Bellamy mumbled a sorry and left

"Thanks but I could have handled that myself" honestly I probably couldn't have.

"I know you could have, I just wanted to help" Lexa said with a slight smirk.

Ok I'm dead, Lexa is actually talking to me. Oh god help me I think to myself. My palms become sweaty and I can feel myself blush. "Well thank you" I reach out my hand for her to shake. Lexa takes my hand, God her hands are so soft. "I'm Clarke"

"I know who you are, I'm Lexa" she lets go of my hand and I immediately miss the contact, when our hands touched it was like fireworks going off, like it was just the two of us in the world, I wonder if she felt it too.

"How do you know who I am?" That was such a stupid question we've met before, come Clarke you're a Griffin, you got this

"We're both friends with Octavia" she giggled, that sound was like music to my ears.

"Oh yea right, do you want to get drinks?"

"Sure"

A/N

Sorry that was kinda a filler chapter, but they finally talked. The next chapter will be them talking again. This chapter is a little longer, I know when I read a fanfic I like longer chapters so I will try to do that as often as possible.
