You're Not Alone

Chapter 48

Clarke's POV

The next morning we all woke up a bit late since we stayed up for so long and watched random christmas movies. Today we are going to prepare everything for tomorrow. Octavia together with Raven have planned out a New Years party. And when those two think of something, there's no way you can keep them away from doing that.

Impossible.

We had a lot of work to do. We need to decorate the whole cabin. From inside and out as well. That's girls work. Decorating.

Lincoln wanted to put on a christmas lights outside of the cabin since he hasn't got to do that because he and his family wasn't here this year.

Bellamy and boys offered to do help since they're stronger. Well. Let's not forget Lexa, the strongest person out there. And the hottest but also adorable-

„Can you help me with these?" Lexa snapped me out of my daydreaming as she was coming out of the basement.
„Yeah of course." I smiled and approached her to help her with boxes she was carrying.

„What's inside?" We put them down on the table in the livingroom.
I opened the box. It was filled with all kinds of decorations like colorful ribbons and candles.

„Hey! Look at that. That's my favorite candle!" Lexa pulled out a yellow candle with honey scent.
„I knew I could smell honey in your room!" I shouted with victory in my voice.
„And there also is a coconut one." She grabbed another on from the box. The excitement in her eyes was priceless. I love when she's excited about little thing.
„I even saw this one on your shelf." I said.
„Yeah well I buy a candle from time to time." She blushed and scratched the back of her neck.

„Oh Lexa you've never told us about your candle obsession." Raven said as she walked down the stairs with a smirk and blankets in her hands.
„I don't have a candle obsession!" Lexa turned around and snapped at Raven. Her cheeks were completley red now.
Raven just laughed and didn't say anything else before she went upstairs again.

„How many candles do you actually have?" I chuckled.
„Im not obsessed with candles." Lexa said through her teeth embarrassed knowing she just exposed herself.
„Whatever you say babe." I scoffed and gave her a quick peck on lips.
We went back to unpacking the boxes with decorating stuff in it.

„Guys! Someone needs to clear the snow outside the house." Lincoln shouted from behind the window.
„I'll do it." Lexa said and put on her jacket.

They obviosuly couldn't get in because the snow was blocking their way. For how long have they been outside? Did it literally snow so much that it blocked their way?

Meanwhile Lexa grabbed a shovel and carefully opened the door. The snow was almost as high as her knees. She needed to be very careful not to let the snow inside.

„Clarke. A little help here." She called my name.
„Can you hold the door for me?" I nodded and watched her clear out the snow again.
„You really need to build a porch here Lincoln! It would be a lot easier." Lexa shouted so he would hear her.
„We've actually been wanting to do that with dad for a while now. Maybe in summer." He answered.

„Jeez close the door it's so cold in here." Raven came downstairs again.
„You can close it now." Lexa said and smiled.
„Don't get too cold snowman." I joked because she had her hat covered in snow.
I closed the door and helped Raven with hanging on the ribbons.

„Sooo how are you and Luna?" I asked to break the awkward silence.
„What do you mean?" She said confused not looking at me once.
„You know what I mean Rae."
„We haven't talked about it yet." She sighed.
„Whenever you're ready. Just know you can't wait for too long." I warned her.
„We will. Soon. I promise." She smiled softly.
