Hey Princess

Magic Griffin Charm

Short chapter only because the next one shall be super long hopefully. This is mostly cute Raven and Clarke scenes, of them being besties and talking about their crushes. 

Clarke POV

After a few more minutes of feeling fireworks explode upon my lips, we break apart.

"I have to go," I croak out. She smirks, so it appears things are back to normal.

"I'll see you tomorrow," she replies.

"You're coming back tomorrow?" I ask, pleasantly surprised.

"Well someone has to be there to make sure you don't get lost on the long trek to your classes," she teases lightly and winks. I swoon a little and I realize that she definitely winked like that on purpose, because she smiles softly before composing her face back into a smirk. I lean in to quickly peck her on the cheek and then I head to my car. I sit down and take a shaky breath.

Did that really just happen?

I smile as I lightly brush my fingers over my tender lips. I notice Lexa still watching me, so I wave and drive off. As I'm driving, I debate about whether or not to call Raven and fill her in. On one hand, she's my best friend and I tell her everything, but on the other this involves Lexa and I don't think she would want many people knowing. The more excited part of me wins, so I text her to meet me at my house in fifteen minutes.

Fifteen minutes later, I've made myself look presentable and Raven's sitting on my bed. I told her there was news, so now she's just anxiously bouncing while I stall. Finally, I say it.

"You know your bet with Octavia?"

"Yeah," she answers suspiciously.

"If you had extended it to one more day, you would've won," I say a little sheepishly. Her jaw drops.

"You little- why couldn't you have worked your magic Griffin charm earlier?!? Anya is gonna bite my head off if I ask her out," she vents.

"So you're saying you're not happy at all that you have an excuse to ask her out?" I ask calmly.

"An excuse?!? What does that mean?"

"Raven," I sigh, "You're my best friend. I know you. And you and I are both not very subtle. I could see that whenever I was staring over at Lexa, you were staring over at her."

Her eyes widen as she realizes she was caught. I laugh at her expression but quickly stop when she glares at me. I shrug.

"Fine, enough about me. Let's talk about you, give me all the juicy details," she says, bouncing back from her pout. I fill her in, telling her the story of the past few days.

"But you can't tell anyway. Not Octavia, not my mom, not even Anya. For Lexa's sake," I say.

She nods her consent and smile.

"She's the best kisser I've ever met, it's unreal," I sigh dreamily. Raven wrinkles up her face in disgust.

"I know I asked for all the details, but TMI," she says.

"So on the subject of good kissers with the last name Woods, when are you asking out Anya?" I ask, wanting to see Raven squirm a little.

"Octavia and I were thinking of inviting Lincoln and Anya to this party Bellamy's throwing at his house Friday night. Oh! You should totally invite Lexa!" 

"I don't think that's such a good idea," I answer.

"Why not?" she says, face falling a little. Raven doesn't like it when her ideas are shot down.

"I don't think Lexa wants this to be public knowledge. I could ask her anyways though," I say, trying to cheer Raven up slightly. 

"Tomorrow? Like me and Octavia?" she asks.

"Tomorrow," I nod my head, agreeing.
