Everything's Changed

12

Lexa had pushed on the gas peddle immediately after the light turned green. Her Kart was in the very back of line. The course was half a mile long each lap.

In first was Gaia which Raven was right behind her. Raven claimed first place as Lexa gained speed on her. She was exactly on her tail. Raven accelerated and went faster but Lexa kept up. Right behind Lexa was Octavia and Clarke, tied at the moment. Lexa got in first after they had passed the first lap. Raven had slowed down a bit as Clarke and Echo got in front of Raven and Octavia.

Lexa was still far ahead and Echo not too far behind. Echo claimed first as they finished the second lap. Echo was suddenly passed by Lexa and Clarke right behind her. Clarke pushed the gas peddle all the way down, making her go faster and pass Lexa, winning the race.

The girls all got out of their Karts as they went to look at their rankings.
Clarke-1st
Echo-2nd
Lexa-3rd
Nyilah-4th
Raven-5th
Octavia-6th
Gaia-7th
Harper-8th
Ontari-9th
Luna-10th

"Okay, so let's go do some arcade games!" Raven shouted and everyone followed her.

Clarke walked up to Lexa, who was obviously waiting for her. "Thought you won every time." Clarke grinned.

"I had to let you win." Lexa smiled.

"Then you'd let someone else in front of you too." Clarke fired back. Lexa gave a confused look. "Not so cocky now, aye?"

"Very much." She said, running to the arcade.

Lexa stopped at a skiball game and smiled. "What's that smile for?" Clarke asked.

"See that score?" Lexa said. "That's the highest score. If I beat that score, will you hang out with me again?"

"Sure, doubt you win though." Clarke said accepting the challenge.

Lexa had got the ball in five-hundred every time she rolled the ball. It was unbelievable. Clarke had never seen that before. Lexa had beat the high score.

"So, you were saying?" Lexa giggled.

"Whatever." Clarke laughed.

They caught up with Raven and Octavia who were playing in the basketball court. Raven was dribbling the ball and juking Octavia out. She went in for the layup and made it.

"What is the score now? Like seventy-five to six?" Raven joked.

"You wish Rae." Octavia said. "You're definitely taking the L."

Clarke and Lexa watched them argue and laugh. The girls looked over to see them. "Wanna join us?" Raven asked.

"Yeah, sure." Lexa said.

"I call dibs on Lexa!" Octavia said.

"I get Clarke." Raven smiled.

The girls checked the ball up and Octavia had ball first. She had Lexa who was pretty good at everything. She passed the ball to Lexa who was guarded by both of them. That was a mistake because Octavia was at the basket, waiting for a layup. Lexa passed the ball to Octavia who made the layup.

After half and hour of playing, they were all exhausted. They walked out of the gym to meet up with the others. They were playing volleyball. They were actually keeping score.

"Wow, they're good!" Clarke said, staring at them.

"They all play competitively." Lexa said.

"Interesting." Clarke laughed. "I barely survived our game."

"You did fine." Raven reassured her with a smile.

They watched the girls finish up their game which was pretty long since they volley back and fourth or a long  time.

"Good game but terrible plays." Nyilah said sticking her tongue out at Echo.

"You're Just jealous." Echo said smiling. "Where were you guys?"

"We were playing some basketball." Raven said. "Wish I were to play with you guys. I would slay."

Echo laughed at her remark and so did Octavia. Raven just flipped her hair like she would do when she thought she was awesome.

"So, when do we get to hang out?" Lexa whispered in Clarke's ear.

"How about never." Clarke joked.

Lexa faked a hurt look. "You promised."

"Yeah yeah, whatever." Clarke said. "Whenever you'd like."

"Sounds good to me." Lexa said with a wide smile. "I'd better get going."

Clarke watched Lexa get into her car and drive off. She would be staying longer with Raven and Octavia. They would be getting some pizza at the small cafe in the building.

"Did you have fun?" Raven said, taking a bite of pizza.

"Yeah, a lot more than I thought." Clarke smiled, barely touching her slice.

"That's good, now eat up." Raven said.

Clarke took a bite of pizza, happily. She had eaten three slices of pizza which was a lot more food than she would usually eat. She had a good time for the first time in forever.
