"So, got any plans for Thanksgiving?" Clarke asked Lexa.
"Not yet." Lexa frowned. "I might fly out to San Fran to see my family. Anya is going back though."
"I'd love to go to San Fran, never been." Clarke said. "Is it beautiful there?"
"Definitely." Lexa smiled. "The sunset and sunrise is unforgettable."
"New Jersey isn't like that. It's always cold and cloudy. At least where my parents live."
"Have you lived anywhere else?"
"Well, before my dad passed, we lived in New Orleans, specifically The French Quarter. My dad grew up there."
"I've never been to New Orleans." Lexa said. "Have you been back?"
"Yeah, the atmosphere is great. The air feels fresh and the people there are incredibly nice. I've met so many amazing human beings out there."
"I'd love to go there." Lexa said.
"Me too. My dad was buried there."
"Maybe you and your mom could come to San Fran for Thanksgiving." Lexa grinned.
"I'm not sure. I might but my mom might go to Thanksgiving with Marcus and I still need to meet his son."
"Or, we could go back to Polis for a bit and then we could fly out to San Fran?" Lexa asked.
"That's a great idea. I'll take it into consideration."
Raven then knocked on Clarke's door. "Clarkie!"
Clarke rolled her eyes and got up from her bed to open the door for Raven. Clarke opened the door to see Raven standing there, holding Chinese takeout. "Dinner is ready. I got some for Lexa too. "
"Thank you." Clarke said and reached for the bag but Raven jerked it back.
"Nope, you have to come join us in the kitchen to eat." Raven smirked.
The girls exited Clarke's bedroom and entered the small kitchen. They took a seat at the table and then Raven gave them the bag.
"First, we must pray." Raven joked.
"Uhm, no." Octavia glared.
The girls grabbed their food and put it on their plastic plates. "Thanksgiving plans?" Octavia asked with a mouthful of food.
"San Fran and New Jersey." Lexa said.
"No, scratch that, it's in New Orleans. Marcus' family lives in the French Quarter."
"Okay, so flight to New Orleans and then San Fran."
"Wait, you lived in the French Quarter?" Raven asked.
"Yeah, why?"
"Always wanted to go there." Raven shrugged.
"Do you speak French?" Octavia asked.
"A little. Almost everyone there either spoke English or French."
"Say something in French."
"Bonjour, je m'appelle Clarke"
"What?" Octavia tilted her head a bit in confusion.
"It means Hello, my name is Clarke."
"Oh, say something else." Octavia said.
"Merci pour la nourriture" Clarke said. "Thank you for the food."
"Cool." Raven smiled.
"You should speak in French for the others." Raven suggested. "They'll be here soon. It's a Friendsgiving thing. That's why there's a bunch of food on the counter."
Just as Raven finished her sentence, there was a knock at the door. The door opened and Anya, Harper, Echo, Murphy, Bellamy, and Lincoln entered the room.
"How'd you boys get onto campus?" Octavia asked.
"Titus let us. He said it was fine since it was Friendsgiving." Lincoln shrugged as he got food.
"That's great! We have more food than we could ever eat on our own." Raven said.
Everyone moved to the living room and they moved the table behind the couch so everyone would be in the same place.
"So, Thanksgiving plans?" Lincoln asked.
"Well, Octavia, Bell, and I are going back to Florida for Thanksgiving." Raven said. "I can't wait to be home."
"Going back to San Fran with Lincoln, Luna, and Lex." Anya said.
"Well, I'm going to New Orleans for a few days, then I'm flying out to San Fran."
"Okay, whatever floats your boat."
"Clarke?" Bellamy asked.
"Aller à la Nouvelle-Orléans puis aller avec Lexa à San Francisco"
"Huh?" Murphy said and Clarke giggled.
"It's French, dumbass." Raven hit his head sightly.
"I said I'm going to New Orleans then going to San Fran with Lexa."
"You speak French?" Murphy asked.
"Comes with me, yes." Clarke shrugged. "I haven't spoken French since I was like five."
"Still sounds natural." Bellamy shrugged.
"Have you been to France?" Octavia asked.
"No, I want to though." Clarke said. "Murphy, what're your plans?"
"I'm going with Bell for Thanksgiving. My parents don't do anything for Thanksgiving."
"Oh, what a shame." Anya chuckled.
"Merci, je vais me coucher et je vous vois demain avant mon départ." Clarke said and got up to throw her garbage away. Then she went to her room.
"What'd she say?" Bellamy asked.
Lexa, who was typing exactly what Clarke had said into Google Translate. "Thanks you, I'm going to bed and I'll see you guys tomorrow before I leave."
"Okay." Anya said. "Let's play some Xbox games."
Raven was quick to get the Mario Kart case out but Octavia had already put NBA2k19 in. But Echo had Rocket League in her hands.
"Geez, you guys need to chill out with the games. We'll play em all." Murphy chuckled.
