LEXA POV
It has been 2 weeks since Clarke's secret got out. I haven't seen Clarke around school, only during those 3 classes we have together. We don't even sit together anymore. She sits as far away from me as possible. During Lab Class, she asked to switch partners with a girl named Siobhan. I got a pang of jealousy. I shouldn't right? I was the one who avoided her, not letting her explain. I should talk to her.

Classes ended and I rushed to the parking lot to wait for Clarke. She was not there, her motorcycle is gone.

Today is Friday, 3 weeks after the 1st game of the season. Meaning, tomorrow is the 2nd game. I plan on talking to her tomorrow, instead.

(next day)

I wake up with continous ringing of my doorbell. I groan and sleepily pissed walking to my door. My parents aren't home since they have a conference who offered them a hotel. I open the door and Raven and Octavia was standing there looking at me up and down with a smirk. I realized the game is today. I overslept.

Me: Shit, sorry i forgot about today.

Raven: Forgot or intentionally don't want to go?

Octavia: Raven!!

Me: No, no. I really forgot to put my alarm. I slept late last night so I overslept.

Octavia: No rush, Lexie. Go and change. We will wait for you outside.

Me: No you can stay here watch tv or whatever. My parents are not home anyways. Help yourselves with water or food in the kitchen. I'll be back real quick.

Raven: No rush, Woods. We have an hour before the game.

I quickly go shower, brush my teeth and change. When i go down to meet Raven and Octavia, i hear them talking. I shouldn't eavesdrop right?

Octavia: So, should we tell Lexa?

Octavia: So, should we tell Lexa?

'Tell me what???!!!" I thought

Raven: I think we should tell her. But I don't know if she cares.

Octavia: Nothing wrong if we try right?

Raven: Maybe you're right. Should we tell her when she comes back or after the game.

Octavia: Hmmm. In the stadium before the game. She can't run then, then if she freaks, she can't leave the stadium too.

Raven: Brilliant.

I wonder what they will tell me. And why should I freak out? Should I go to the game or not? I shrugged and walked towards them telling i'm ready to go.

We drove to the stadium in silence. When we arrived, the deliquents were already there. And so is Abby and Marcus. We all greet them and made small talk. The announcer said that the game will start in 5minutes. We all quickly sat down properly to our seats while we wait for the game to start.
