LEXA POV
After that emotional part of the truth or dare, we all decided to go to bed. Because as Raven said "As much as I love to stay up late, I'm old and I need my sleep". She's right tho. Since Raven and Octavia's apartment only has 1 guest bedroom, Clarke offered Anya and Luna can stay there and she would sleep in the living room. I agreed and said that I would sleep on the floor. Clarke protested and we were basically fighting about who's sleeping on the floor when Raven stopped us.

Raven: The couch is a pull out couch, so both of you can sleep on the couch like it's a bed. Go to sleep, losers.

Clarke and I just shyly looks down. All of us said our goodnights. I went to the bathroom to change and I didn't know Clarke was changing outside. I left the bathroom and stood there frozen. I look at her naked back. She wasn't wearing any bra, just her compression shorts. With the tv's screen, i see Clarke's reflection. Flashes from high school suddenly appears in my head. I stood there staring at her perky breasts as she puts her sports bra and loose shirt and puts on her pyjamas. She turns around and stares at me. I just stood there still frozen.

Me: I..uh. i- i'm sorry. I didn't...

I was rambling and turned around. I honestly don't know why, she was already dressed. Clarke just laughed at me.

Clarke: it's okay Lexa. No worries. Turn around, i'm decent.

I turn around still looking down. She chuckles and comes near to me.

Clarke: Hey, it's okay. If we were together before, I'm pretty sure you've already seen it.

 If we were together before, I'm pretty sure you've already seen it

I look at her and I blush. she chuckles at my nervous state. She made her way to the couch and pat the other side for me to sleep in. We both lay in silence.

CLARKE POV
Lexa and I were sharing the couch. We were just laying, I couldn't sleep. Until Lexa broke the silence.

Lexa: Clarke?

I turn so I would face her. She turned to face me as well. I stare at her forest green eyes. I could just stare at them forever. No wonder Octavia said I was the happiest when I was with Lexa. Just looking at her eyes, it's already dreamy.

Lexa: How are you?

I chuckled at her question

Lexa: No, really. How are you? Like how are you taking all of this in? Is LA too overwhelming? Are we too much?

Me: No, not really. At first, yes. It was hard to know what's happening. I can't seem to keep up. Until now, i still don't know anything if you guys talk about those 5 years or before that. But all in all, i'm good. Slowly, but good.

She nods at me.

Lexa: Do you still want to remember those years? You don't have to answer it tho.
