Bedtime Story {Clexa Fanfiction}

Movie Night Part 1

            Over the next couple of weeks Lexa began to become part of our gang of misfits. Sometimes still being shy at times, but very outgoing if brought out at the right time.

        We learned after a particular fight over history with Bellamy. That one, she was very smart, two she was very opinionated, and lastly very stubborn. Which they were both being, when asked to stop. But both of them could not stop arguing. They couldn't let bygones be bygones so Raven and I intervened that day.

       For some reason when I got very close to Lexa and asked her to stop. She stopped and stood there with a faraway look. Since then Lexa and I have grown closer.

          She usually hung around me and I didn't mind it. I got to hang out with the prettiest and smartest girl in the world. Tonight Raven, Octavia, Lexa and I planned a movie night and all of us were excited.

"Is the popcorn ready?" I ask Raven
who is busy in the kitchen.

"Soon, oh my gosh for the thousandth time stop being so nervous!" Raven yells.

"Sorry," I call back, nervously straightening the movie selection on the shelf again.

Raven walks in and eyes me curiously, "Why are you so nervous?

I shrug, "I don't know, maybe cause we haven't had a movie night in so long?"

Raven smirks, "I think's that's a lie."

I raise my eyebrow, "And why is that?"

"You are nervous about commander heart eyes aren't you?

"What?!" I splutter, "No!"

Raven grins even wider, "Well from the way you're acting, it's almost as if you are getting ready to have a date."
"That's -" I begin to say.
But Raven shushes me, "There are three signs Clarke that you usually like someone, one, you get extremely nervous when you are around them, two you start drawing them a lot because you can't get them out of your head. Don't think I haven't seen your drawings lately in your sketchbook. I see everything."

I feel myself blush like a tomato when I realized I'm caught.

"And finally the final sign is that you go all heart eyed and gushy around them. Have you noticed how soft you are with Lexa and then with the rest us you are a sarcastic arse, as usual." Raven says crossing her arms.

"I...guess so," I stutter realizing the
little butterflies I get when I am around Lexa.
   
     The smiles she gives me make my heart melt and she is so strong as a person, but deep down she is actually a big teddy bear.

I exhale, "Oh my gosh! I have fallen for Lexa."

Raven puts her hands in prayer and says, "Thank the lord, she has seen the gay light."

I chuckle embarrassed, "Oh my gosh, stop it!"

Finally there was a knock at the door and both of us looked at each other.

"You answer the door," I say.

"No you do it!" Raven argues

"You," I say back.

"How about I just knock this door down myself," Octavia yells through the door.

"Coming!" We both say.

Opening the door we both smile and greet, "Howdy."

Octavia huffs at us and blows past us, and Lexa chuckles behind Octavia trying to hide her amusement. I sneak a glance at Lexa smiling she looks so adorable! she has a beanie resting on her head and a scarf warmly wrapped around her. She sees me glancing while she takes off her stuff. Blushing, I look away from her. Raven goes to get the popcorn while Octavia sits on the sofa making a waving sign at us.

"Well are you guys, just going to stand there making googly eyes or sit down too?"

Blushing even harder,  both of us look away and sit down.  We sit next to each other on the floor. She is so close, I can brush my fingers against her. Raven walks in merrily and tries to kiss Octavia on the cheek but Octavia pulls away.

"What's the matter babe?" Raven asks

"I'm annoyed at you!" Octavia pouts, crossing her arms.

Raven looks to be amused at this and maybe a little too happy.

"Why if I may ask?" Raven asks putting the popcorn on the table.

I reach to take it and start to eat it.
Lexa looks at me amused,
"What?" I whisper.

Lexa points at the couple across from us and makes a 'are you serious' look and I shrug.

"I am annoyed cause you left us out in the cold!" Octavia cutely pouts.

I am tempted to say 'aw' and hug my best friend but she looks serious.

Raven sighs, "I was just trying to help someone," and she points at me.

"Oh no don't involve me in this!" I say as I munch on popcorn.

Raven rolls her eyes and whispers something in Octavia's ear. Octavia's makes an 'O' shape and kisses Raven's nose.

"What just happened?" Lexa asks me.

I shrug, "To be completely honest I don't know. But if I had to guess, it's 'gay stuff.'

Lexa laughs, "Your group seems to run into a lot of 'gay stuff.'

I chuckle, "Probably cause most of us are in the LGBT+ spectrum in some way."

Raven makes a shushing noise at us, "Shut up!"

I stick my tongue out at her, "Whatever, what's the movie we are watching?"

Raven chuckles, "You'll see."

Lexa whispers, "You guys are so mature."

I grin, "I know right!"

"Mommy why is mama with us for story time tonight?"Jas suddenly asks.

"What you don't want your mama here?" Lexa jokes reaching out to tickle Jas.

"No, it's just you are usually busy working, Aren't you?" our little girl inquires.

"Yes I usually am," Lexa smirks looking at me, "But I want to hear that 'fairy tale' you keep talking about."

Jas grins widely and I see her middle tooth missing.

"Did you lose a tooth today Jas?" I ask.
Jas excitedly bounces up and down, "Yeah I did, I am going to stay up all night too! I want to meet the tooth fairy and say thank you for my dollar. I can't wait for the tooth fairy to come!"

Lexa and I both look at each other knowingly, our kid is the best.
