Clean

It's Brunch

Clarke was laying laying on the couch wrapped up in a blanket and watching House Hunters. Anya had dragged Lexa to a party so Clarke was on her own for the night. It was already long past the time when Lexa and Clarke usually took their bath, and Clarke just didn't feel like having one on her own. So she just laid on the couch until eventually, she fell asleep.
When Lexa got home much later she saw Clarke passed out on the couch. Lexa walked towards the couch and knelt down in front of her. She gently brushed a strand of hair off Clarke's face. "Hey," she said softly. "Let's get you to bed." Lexa said and gently shook Clarke's shoulder. Clarke stirred and opened her eyes. She let out a groan in protest as Lexa helped her sit up.
"What time is it?" Clarke asked groggily.
"Late." Lexa replied. Clarke was standing now, and still had a blanket wrapped around her shoulders. Lexa started steering Clarke in the direction of her room, and Clarke followed along, dragging her feet. Lexa managed to get Clarke into her bed without any mishaps. Clarke's eyes were closed as her head hit the pillow so Lexa started to leave.
"Lex?" Clarke called out.
Lexa turned around to face her. "Hmm?"
"I love you." Clarke said, her voice heavy with sleep.
"I love you too." Lexa said softly.

The next morning Lexa was in the kitchen when Clarke finally got up. "Morning sleepyhead. You didn't shower last night?"
"Yeah I didn't really feel like it..." Clarke said sounding a little upset.
"Well do you want to have a bath with me now?" Lexa asked.
"Yes! But can we eat first?" Clarke asks much happier now.
"What if we ate in the tub?" Lexa suggests.
"Oh my god yes! We can use that big tray as like a table."

After they got everything together for breakfast, they were in the bathroom getting undressed. Lexa picked up the tray of food off the closed toilet seat and carefully balanced it across the middle of the tub, and got in. Clarke picked up the bottle of wine and the glasses and got in after her.
"Clarke do we really need wine it's barley eleven o'clock."
"It's brunch." Clarke said as if that explained everything.
"Okay," Lexa shrugged, and took a glass from Clarke. The tray was full of waffles, lots of different fruits and a few other breakfast foods. They were both quiet for a while concentrating on their food.
"So how was the party?" Clarke asked, breaking the silence.
"Boring." Lexa replied. "Almost made me wish I stayed home with you instead." Lexa said teasingly.
"You're such a dork." Clarke laughed. "Come on you know you love me." Clarke said with a big smile.
"Oh? You don't remember our declarations of love that happened last night?" Lexa asked with a smirk.
"Last night..? What are you talking about?" Clarke asked, slightly confused.
"Last night when I got home you were asleep on the couch, so I helped you get to your bed, and then you told me you loved me." Lexa explained. "And I said it back." She said quietly.
"Well of course I love you. You're like my best friend."
"You're like my best friend too." Lexa said with a smile.
"I really want to hug you right now but this dammed tray is in the way."
"Then just move it!" Lexa said through a laugh. She picked up the tray and set it on the ground. "There."
Clarke slid through the water, closer to Lexa and wrapped her arms around her. Lexa returned the hug, and they stayed like that until the water had gone cold, and their fingers were wrinkled.
