"Ooooo, what about this one?" Octavia squeals getting mine and Ravens attention, who drags me over to the younger Blake sibling.

"Nope, too purple, we both know that not Clarke's colour" Raven says cringing at the idea of me in purple, I had to agree though, purple was not my colour.

"No, not for her for me you dumbass" Octavia says, the 2 girls start going on and on about fabrics and colours and bla bla bla.

I go over and sit down in the corner of the store, tomorrow was my 20th birthday and the girls wanted to bring me out today to get me something to wear, it's been a month since I gave Lexa the ring and everyone was over the moon.

I hadn't seen Lexa since this morning when I woke up, she made me breakfast before going somewhere with Anya and told me I'd see her tonight.

Octavia and Raven had been winging that I never hung out with them anymore and spent all my time with Lexa so I decided I'd allowed them to drag me to the shops....I wish I didn't.

"OH MY GAY!" I hear Raven shout, the shops owners glare at her until they see my glare and look away, I go over to my sisters and see what the fuss is about.

"HOLY GAY GOD OF JESUS!" I say wide eyed, Octavia was standing in the dressing room in a stunning black short dress.

Raven and I stare wide eyed at our little sister who was blushing and biting her lip, "So...It's good?" She asks unsure as her aqua eyes search my blue ones and Ravens chocolate brown, I gawk at her.

"Bitch, this shits fabulous!" I reassure her.

"If this don't get Lincoln's attention nothing will. You look better then Beyonce and we all know how much of a crush I have on Beyonce!" Raven tells her, Octavia bites her lip as her cheeks turn a deeper red.

"I don't know what your talking about" she mumbles, I share a look with Raven.

"Mhm, Yea sure ya don't. Just make sure he doesn't rip it off ok, it's expensive" I tease, me and Raven laugh as Octavia groans and throws her head back, walking back into the dressing room after giving is the bird.

We continue looking for a while until I spot a dress I just know all look good on my older sister, I grin and I force it into her hands and push her in the dressing room before she could even look at it, a moment later we hear.

"HOLY SHIT CLARKE, YOUR AMAZING!" Ma and Octavia laugh as we wait for our big sister to get out, when she does our jaws drop.

"Holy shit" Both me and Octavia whisper at the same time as we stare awwed at Raven who smirks.

"I know, it's great" she says as she turns and slaunters back into the dressing room.

"Oh, yea, well your welcome!" I call after her, she just laughs and closes the door, I look to Octavia's with a smirk, "So, you and Lincoln.." I start, a blush immediately spreads across her cheeks.

"Wh-what about me and Linc..oln, Lincoln, yep, Lincoln" she babbles, I raise a single brow.

"Now now, don't fret little sister, I won't tell" I promise her as I wrap my arm around her shoulders brining her into my side as Raven walks out.

"Ok ladies, now it's time for Clarkes dress" Raven announces, immediately both girls spring into action to look for my outfit, I groan, I hated shopping with a passion.

"How about this one!"

"Or this one"

"Definitely this one!"

"Awww"

"Try on this and this and this and this and this and this and this and this and this!"

"Oh oh oh and this one!"

"And these three"

"Rae, would this suit her?"

"Obviously, it's Clarke!"

"Oh I looooove that!"

I stay sitting hidden behind a rack of clothes for the next half hour to so as the girls run around like headless chickens looking for a perfect dress.

"Wait...." I hear Raven start, I hold my breath, "Where's Clarkey?" She asks, I couldn't see them from were I was sitting in the middle of a circle rack in the corner of the clothes shop but I could hear them talking and walking around.

I stay completely still, not daring to move a muscle as I hear Octavia's familiar sound of footsteps come closer, I can tell it's her because Octavia practically levitates with a grace ballerinas would envy whilst Raven leaned on her right leg more because of her limp.

"Clarke" I hear a whisper behind me, their breath touching my ear, I turn and I'm met with the smug look of Octavia's face, I groan loudly, "Got her Rae!" Octavia calls, instantly I hear the footsteps of Raven.

I lay on the floor completely still whilst they urge me to get up, finally having enough of my childish behaviour Octavia grabs my arms and drags me through the store as I pout, this was one of those times I wish I was light.

The people in the store look at us amused and chuckle as Octavia drags me to the dressing room with Raven skipping along side her with her arms full of dresses as they both sing along to the shops speakers, 'I kissed a girl' but instead of "I kissed a girl and I liked it" they say "Clarke kissed a girl and she liked it" which makes me laugh was they drag me.

My sisters were crazy.

As they push me into the dressing room I curse at them as they say no to every dress I try, 23 of them, 23 dresses and they don't like them, I groan again as I throw my hands up, I'm about to swear but then I catch sight of something on the corner of my eye.

My eyes are wide as I stare at the dress adoringly, "Uhhh, guys" I gain their attention, "I think I found my dress" I mumble, they look over and gasp.

"You definitely found your dress" Octavia says at the exact same time Raven says.

"Your definitely getting laid"

We laugh and buy the three dresses for my birthday party, it's a suprise party like always but the girls have been extra secretive this year, not even having brought up my birthday plans until 5 hours ago.

Let's hope they don't go too overboard....
