Clarke's POV

After a long day of classes I go to Starbucks to get some work done. I have almost finished with my essay for human anatomy, when I get bored and pick up my phone.

I pull up Lexa's number. She still doesn't have a saved contact... I probably shouldn't, incase the idiots I call friends take my phone again.

I stop for a moment and think about what I should say to her. How should I start a conversation? I type out, "Hey" then delete it.

I do this over and over again until I settle on a message to send.

Clarke
you get home safety... padawan

I put my phone down, anxious for a reply, which I got about 45 seconds later:

(123) 456-7890
Yes ma'am, I just got home...
And I am not a Padawan... I'm a Jedi Master

I smile down at my phone:

Clarke
Oh are you now?

(123) 456-7890
Always have and always will be...

I laugh a little then realize that she said she just got home. She left me 5 hours ago.

Clarke
wait you just got home?!?!

(123) 456-7890
Yes

Clarke
what were you doing for 5 hours?!?!

(123) 456-7890
Things

Clarke
i will pinch you

(123) 456-7890
Oh no! I am so scared! I won't be able to handle a pinch! Oh, what will I do?!

Clarke
I know... you better be scared...

(123) 456-7890
I am shaking from fear.

Clarke
good.

(123) 456-7890
Also, what is this?

She sends me a picture of the 20 dollar tip we have been passing back and forth.

Clarke
you're tip 🙃

(123) 456-7890
*Your
Also, you won't get away with this, Griffin...

Clarke
whatcha gonna do? pinch me?

(123) 456-7890
I can do other things than pinching... you'll see...

I blush at the last text. What does she mean? Is she talking about boxing or...

Clarke
oh?

(123) 456-7890
By the way you replied, I must assume you took my response wrong... get your mind out of the gutter, Griffin... if I'm going to flirt with you I'll make it clear...

This makes me blush even more.

Clarke
good thing I didn't take it dirty...

(123) 456-7890
Those dots at the end of the sentence tell me other wise.

Clarke
shut up and go to sleep!

(123) 456-7890
Not tired

Clarke
do I care?

(123) 456-7890
You should... seeing as i'm your first ever patient...
