Lexa, Stuck in the Suburb

Lexa, The Popular's Girlfriend

If a day ago you told me that I'll be here standing day dreaming about the beach date, I would have probably bang my head against the locker. Cause there's no way in this god forsaken town would I date, Clarke Griffin. No way...

"Yes way!" Octavia snorted, rolling her eyes. "Look at yourself, Lexa. You're a mess! This morning you practically drooled staring at Clarke's ass when she was bending over by the water fountain. During class Mr Pike practically called you 4 times before you snapped away from your day dreaming of some blonde creature."

Lexa made a mocking face and pouted, "Not my fault it's so round..." She mumbled quietly to herself, sending Octavia to roll her eyes again.

"So are you and blonde head," nodding at Clarke's direction across the hallway, "you know, together together?"

Lexa suddenly snapped her eyes at Clarke's direction as if by bluetooth both of their eyes met and a smile was shared. She shrugged and turn away from Clarke, which means Octavia can see how flustered her cheeks were.

"Damn it, Kane. You are so whipped," Octavia shakes her head.

"How do you do, Ms Kane? Keeping it tight I presume. "

Lexa quickly twirled around and found the blue eyed girl looking at her formally with those arms awkwardly folded behind her back. She frowned and looks at Octavia strangely before meeting Clarke's again.

"What's wrong with you?" Lexa asked, tilting her head.

Clarke quickly looks around before leaning closer, "I'm not sure if people in school should know about us, you know."

"Know about what?" She still playing dumb.

"About our love...," Those blue eyes dances around with hers. "And how tender it is," Clarke answered innocently that got Lexa automatically smiling goofily.

That smile very soon turned into a toothy grin, "Stop making it weird. I don't care," lightly shoving the girl on the shoulder. "Do you mind though?" Suddenly feeling worried that they'll be that the princess and the pauper secret love affair that they have keep in the closet.

Clarke simply grins and pulled Lexa by the shoulders and faced the crowded hallway, "Did you hear that TonDC! Lexa doesn't care! And I don't care! Lexa and I aren't embarrassed to express how tender our love is!" Lexa felt her shoulders being squeezed tightly with her eyes crazily looking around the crowd. "It's extremely tender!" Clarke declared proudly with arm gesture.

It was like a plot from the most typical movies you would ever watch where everybody practically cheered and gave high fives. TonDC is actually - literally - celebrating with the declaration of Clarke's love. I supposed to feel embarrassed or at least shy about it but in truth... I felt magnified. I felt uplifted because Clarke - the popular - wasn't embarrassed being with me. A girl. An outsider. (Not that I care. This town still sucks)

A hand suddenly grabbed Lexa by the wrist and pulled her away from the celebrating crowd. She frowned when she came faced to faced with none other than the B.E.Es. She folded her arms and showed the defiance and bitchiness that she reserves for Clarke's little minions. She raised her chin slightly and said, "Becca, Echo, Emori," she nodded in acknowledgement.

"Lexa," the trio chorused.

"What can I do for you?" Lexa asked all almighty.

Becca tilted her head slightly and flashed a smile, "Congratulations, Lexa!"

"We had no idea things were so tender between the two of you," Echo second.

"No one in their wildest dreams would expect you to snag a popular girl," Emori continued with that sarcastic smile. Lexa wasn't sure if she's being genuine or not - but she doubted it. "It's like that legless swimmer winning the olympics."
