Clarke taps her fingers nervously on the table, not sure what to expect when she finally meets this mysterious girl. Raven and Octavia too wanted to know who this person really is and as soon as Mrs. Beaty comes out with a blonde haired woman, Clarke's jaw immediately drops down to the floor. Raven all but choked on her cup of coffee. Raven was immediately attracted to the blonde goddess before her but she was off limits for Clarke was her fake fiancé.

"Ladies, meet Anya Woods. She is the sister to your so called 'fake' fiancé Clarke. She will be the one going through the negotiations with you. And excuse me, let me fetch your 'fake' fiancé for you in the back."

Clarke was stunned. The goddess in front of her with a killer jawline and blonde hair wasn't her fake fiancé? Clarke was intrigued. Why would her sister want to talk to her for?

"Clarke Griffin am I right?"

"That's right."

"Skip the intro. Down to business. My sister acts as your fake fiancé for your parents in which she will have no problem faking it. What's it in for her?"

"Wow. Your blunt." Clarke was taken aback by Anya's bluntness, and also the power and tone she carried with her.

"I like to do business Ms Griffin. So, what's the payment?"

"$50,000 cash. After the whole deal is done. On the 30th day, I give the cash."

"$100,000. Take it or leave it." Clarke gasped in shock. Sure she can get $100,000 no sweat but why the certain amount of cash. Anya on the other hand had it all planned out. After the insurance coverage and such, $100,000 would be enough for Lexa to go through with the procedures and such, giving her the chance she needed.

"Fine. Deal. But only on the 30th day. Anything else?"

"Nope. That's all. Oh and by the way, this discussion stays between us. Tell my sister about our little deal, and the deal is off. She comes back home with me."

"What deal?"

Clarke whipped her head over to the angel standing to the side. Clarke immediately bit her tongue to avoid moaning at the sight before her. A tall and beautiful brunette, with tanned skin and emerald green eyes had walked up to them, her arms folded as she stared directly into Clarke's soul, a spark lighting up between them. Clarke was staring and so was the brunette. She was as shock as Clarke. Clarke didn't dare look anywhere further down than the brunette's jawline that was 10 times better than Anya.

"Lexa..."

"So... you're the one Mrs Beaty talked about." Lexa looks at Clarke coldly.

"You're the one whom she said would help me." Clarke retaliated in the same cold tone the woman before her used.

"Lex... be nice."

"Nah uh. What kind of shit did you do now? Don't lie to me. I heard the whole conversation." Lexa turned her gaze towards Anya.

Octavia and Raven sat there silently. Octavia found this extremely awkward and Raven was just lost in her own world staring at Anya. She was enamoured by Anya's looks and fierceness, making her drool for the woman. Clarke found herself in a sticky situation between the two sisters. One said yes while the other said no.

"Lexa please. Do this for yourself. Please..."

"Absolutely not. $100,000 Anya? Really? For the last time, I'm not going to do anything about it and leave it as it is. I'm done Anya." Lexa sighed.

"Then do this for me. One last favour. Be her fake fiancé for 30 days, and I promise I will never talk to you about seeing the doctor ever again." Lexa contemplates her sisters words. She didn't like the idea of spending 30 days with a stranger, but then again, she never said no to her baby sister.

"Haist... fine. This is the last."

"Thank you."

Clarke was still bewildered by this whole scenario before her. Clearly one of them was sick or something if they mentioned the doctors but she dismissed it for it wasn't her place to know the issues going on between the two siblings. But she too was somewhat intrigued by them.

"So now that we have an agreement, shall we get started then?" Clarke breaks the silence and realises her friends had been awesomely quiet.

"Name a time and place. I'll be there, Clarke."

Clarke didn't know why but she was extremely turned on by the way Lexa had said her name, emphasising the 'k' with the click of her tongue. She was so hot. Clarke had managed to take a stroll down her body. Clarke could see the abs that were hidden under her tight fitting tshirt, the short sleeve allowing Clarke to see the tribal tattoo she had on her arm and Clarke wondered where else would she have a tattoo at. And her toned body was magnificent. She had to be a gymnast or maybe a boxer. She was fit as fuck.

"You got 5 days before we fly off to my parents place. Wait on second thought 4 days. So, we need to spend a lot of time knowing each other before jumping into the whole show. So I suggest my place, tomorrow at 8am. Cool with that?"

"I'll be there. And so is Anya. Where she goes, I go, where I go, she goes."

"Deal."

"Very well Ms. Griffin. Will be seeing you tomorrow."

In that instant, Clarke stretches out her hand, wanting to shake the brunette's hand, in which Lexa eyes it for a moment before she too reached her hand out to shake in agreement. But what everyone around realised was that the two woman had been shaking a little too long, both eyes never leaving each other's. Mrs. Beaty watches from the side-lines, a smile perking up on her face.

"And I will be seeing you, Ms. Woods."
