LEXA POV
It's been 3 weeks since Clarke and I kissed in their backyard with basically the whole delinquents watching us. Don't get me wrong, i missed those kisses. But since that night, Clarke and I remained the same. I mean, we're friends and all. We even talk but there's no progress. I know I shouldn't expect that in one night, things will go the way it used to be.

Yesterday was Marcus and Abby's wedding Anniversary. Ever since they got married, we'd always go to this rest house Marcus bought for us to celebrate. We go the day after their anniversary. So the two of them can celebrate on their own first.

Raven: You guys ready to go?

Clarke: yea. But shouldn't we bring something or i don't know, not go and let them have their moment?

Anya: don't worry clarke. We had the same reaction last year but they'll kill us if we don't go.

Clarke looks uneasy crashing Abby and Marcus anniversary so I tried to comfort her.

Me: hey it's all good. They really want us there. They called us this morning to remind us to be there by dinner remember?

Clarke: i guess so.

Clarke smiles at me a bit. And i just smile back. We rode the SUV and made our way to the rest house. It's only a 3-hr drive so I volunteered to drive. We were halfway through the ride when Clarke fell asleep.

Luna: anything new happened between you two?

Luna: anything new happened between you two?

Me: nope. Nothing's going to happen. We're just friends.

Anya: friends? Really? Do you see her as a friend?

I sigh knowing my friends are right. I love her more than just a friend.

Octavia: i know Clarke is our bestfriend but you are ours too. She's been away for 5 years. Who know who she's friends with or what she does.

Raven: O is right Lexa. She might have changed or not, We really don't know. It's not like we were still in high school that we basically have sleepovers everynight and tell each others stories.

Anya: maybe we could do that! We should get to know this version of Clarke. We're all hung up on the old Clarke. This is her now whether we like it or not.

Luna: Yea she's right. I mean i know you guys love her and I do too. Even if we barely became friends through facetime, she was the nicest. And I want her to be my friend too. Not because of stories and memories about her, But because of her now. We all hate to admit it but she changed. changed because she started a life far from all of us, with new cultures and new styles.

Octavia: Yea. I mean look at her. She's wearing simple clothes yet you can sense French fashion there and even her English is with an accent. She speaks French most of the time, she forgets we're Americans.
