bloody green eyes [clexa au]

CHAPTER X

Clarke was amazed by what Lexa said, first because she discovered a new part of the girl, but also because she learnt that Lexa is actually a teacher, and the blonde starting to freak out... What if Lexa is gonna be her teacher this year, or what ? She was honestly scared because students are not allowed to be in a relationship with teachers, amd that was Clarke wanted with Lexa. She would have like to speak about her job with the brunette but she was gone, back to her house because she needed some true sleep. Usually Clarke spent all her Saturday's evening with Finn, but not anymore... she just grabbed cereals and turned netflix on.

Tomorrow would be a hard day so the blonde decided to go to bed. She sent a text to Octavia to ask her how the date was doing. But she had no direct answer, so Clarke went to bed. An unusual sentor could be smell on her bed, it smelled like Lexa. Actually it was great but it let Clarke wonder about if she was doing things right with the brunette, maybe she was too direct, too quick, too stressful, too honest ? She hates when her brain start overthinking like that, so she pushed all the thoughts away and laid down on her pillow.

A few seconds after that, she closed her eyes and let her dreams bring her mind away. She was peacefully sleeping

*Lexa's POV*

As soon as I was home after returning from Clarke's place, I went to take a shower, to wash all the feelings away. I hate to feel something for someone so quickly, because from where I stand because of Costia, love is weakness. And I couldn't let my walls fall and be weak for the beginning of my new life. Of course Clarke is a great person, but I wondered if I'm doing great with her. Wasn't it too much ? too direct, too quick, too stressful, too honest ?

The next morning, Clarke got up early, she needed to see her mom. It was about 8 am when she turned on her phone to see that she has received a text from Octavia last night when she was already asleep. It said "Hey Griff yeah it's all goood, Lincoln is super adorable I'm dying lol, we finished to eat, I bet we are gonna fuck tonight, xoxo". And Clarke laughed to herself. The blonde went out of bed and went downstairs to eat something as a breakfast. During the making of the waffles, she sent a text to her mom to ask when she can go see her, and immediately got an answer "Gmorning honey, you can be there at 2, bring the dessert :)."

She finished eating and took care to keep some waffles for her mum. But sadly Clarke had a lot af free time before having to go, so she decided to prepare her stuffs for tomorrow, she chose her outfit, quite normal to be honest, a pair of black jeans and a nice feeting sweater. She pulled her laptop from her bed and put it in her bag. The blonde sat at her desk to try to figure our what she could have forgotten, when she saw the painting she had started the day before. Yeah the one with the autumn forest on the hill.

What a great idea it was to finished it to gave it to her mom as a gift to prove she is talented and her art is worth it. She just spent a few hours on it before putting it inside a frame. Clarke looked at the time, it was already 1 pm. She took her phone to see the news, but the only news she could see on instagram was a picture of Octavia and Lincoln at the restaurant for their date, so cute, but also a picture of one her best friend John Murphy watching Sponge Bob with popcorn, so adorable, and the last one she saw was a pic of Bellamy and Costia at a café. Actually the last one was so cutie pie, because they were both laughing with Bellamy's arm around Costia's shoulder.

She took everything she needed to be with Abby, her bag, her phone, her key, her painting, and of course the waffles. Went outside, closed the door, and starting to walk. Clarke walked faster than usual because she was very excited to show her mom her work. It may have take her 10 min to arrive in front of the house. She took a few seconds to admire how huge the house was, at least was for only one person, because since Jake's death, the house was too much... Clarke took a step closer and knocked at the door.

It took Abby a minute to open the door. The two Griffins hugged for a quite long time before sliding away. Clarke entered the house and dropped the waffles on the kitchen table. She followed Abby in the living room, "My kitten is ready for college ?" and the blonde responded the more honest as possible, "Yeah but I'm like super stressed about it, because you know, I'm still on doubt if I'll like what I'll subject..." and the mom sighted "I know you want to an artist Clarkie but I assure you, you'll have to have a stable job to earn money to start your adult life, and besides I can offer a well paid job at my clinic."

The reaction of her mom still disappoint Clarke. But she understood her point of view. The blonde felt it was time for her to give the painting at her mom, "Here, I have something for you, just to remind my art is quite worth it, it represents when we used to walk the all of us three during autumn. Hey you know I wonder what my father would advise me right now". And she gave the frame to her mom, who let escape a tear because of the beautifulness of the gift, "Thank you my butterfly, it is so incredible I love it. And for Jake, I know he sees us from above, I can assure you he would be so proud of his little princess."
