You're Not Alone

Chapter 13

Lexa's POV

It was about 4 pm when I arrived home.
„Im home!" I shouted. No response.
„Hello?" Nothing.
I found a sticky note in the kitchen.

Im at work, Aden's at friends house
I left you food in a fridge.
-Anya

Nice. Home alone. I went up stairs and unpacked my stuff. After that I grabbed a food and sat down on the couch in living room.
I then decided to text Clarke if she got home safely.

Lexa: hey you home?

Clarke: yeah why

Lexa: just checking on you

Clarke: lexa we live like one street apart

Lexa: i just want you to be safeee

Clarke: i know i gotta unpack now so talk to you later ❤

Lexa: yep ❤

I put my phone down and got bored again. Nothing good was playing in tv, I already ate my food and unpacked.
After a while I was literally about to lose my mind so I took my stuff and went outside to practice basketball. The playground was near Clarke's house.
„Eeeey Woods!" I heard girls voice from behind. I turned around and saw my cousin Luna.
„What's up what are you doing here?" I asked clearly shocked to see her.
„Meeting up with couple of friends. What about you? Do you have like a big match or something?" She smirked.
„Nah not anytime soon. I just got bored." I shrugged.
„Yeah well if there is any match let me know." She winked and patted my back as she walked off.
„Sure thing." I said and practiced again for a bit after I headed home.

I got home, took a shower and not even a 5 minutes after Aden came home.
„Lexa! You're home." He hugged me with excitement. I picked him up and smiled.
„Hey little man. Did you miss me?" I joked.
„No." He frowned and smiled right after.
„Aaw that hurts." I faked hurt look.
„Im hungry. Will you make me something?"
„Yeah sit down I'll be right back." I put him down and went to kitchen.
„Do you want bacon or pancakes?" I asked him.
„Bacon." He told me not taking eyes from tv.

When I was done I sat down beside him and put a blanket over us.
„How have you been here?" I asked curiously.
„I was fine. A bit bored without you but I was okay. We ordered pizza and watched movies all night with Anya."
„All night? I bet you fell asleep." I chuckled and recieved a punch.
„I didn't! Anya didn't have to go to work and she wanted to spend some time with me." He said proud of himself that he stayed up.
„When will she come home?" I asked Aden.
„She'll be here soon."
We watched Mulan for a while. After that I went up stairs to my room and to do that I have to pass Aden's room. I walked in and looked at his desk. There was a bunch of drawings. I smiled at the creations, he would get along with Clarke well. There were drawings like animals, cars then there was drawing of Anya, Aden and me holding hands. I smiled and keept looking through them.
Then I saw drawing where was a girl who turned out to be me and blonde girl, obviously Clarke.
„Aden? Come here for a second." I yelled at him from up stairs.
He was there in like 3 seconds.
„What is this?" I handed him the drawing.
„It's you and Clarke." He said it like I was absolutely stupid.
„Why would you draw that?" I gave him a nervous chuckle.
„Because you two are best friends and you love each other. She's our family, so are the others I've met." He smiled as he looked up at me.
I smiked and got onto his level.
„Aden, that's so sweet of you."
„I wanted to give it to you when you come back but you already saw it yourself." He shrugged a bit disappointed that I ruined his surprise.
„You know what? Clarke likes to draw too. What if you showed her all of your drawings? Myabe she could teach you something." I smirked and his eyes widened.
„Really?" He gasped.
„Yeah. I can call her and maybe she could come. What do you think?" I asked.
„Yes! That's great." He jumped.
