Summary
Lexa was the star quarterback on the football team, who got a scholarship to play and couldn't afford to lose it. Football and studying was her life until she met Clarke Griffin.
Clarke needed to get sponsors to become a professional surfer and a big competition was coming up to get them. Her only focus was on surfing and didn't have time for a relationship. That was until she met a football player who was nothing like she expected.
-----
They both agreed to keep it casual. Friends with benefits was easier than the heartache of a relationship- until it wasn't.- Language:

I was surprised to see this fic when I was fiktering the recently finished fics in search of new reading material. I remembered the title and having read this back in the day to the point where I thought it was abandoned. I think I watched the movie shortly after to get some closure that way (that hetero stuff was a poor consolation).
I'm thrilled you came back and gave it the proper ending it deserved. Your work was too good to sit there unfinished, because this is now really something you should be proud of to have brought full circle.
Thank you so much for writing and sharing! -

Will Clarke profess her love first? Will Lexa? Will their relationship start based on an extreme situation? Will they live out an epically cute rom-com worthy life? Will they wind up in bed together? Drunk together? Dancing? Dating? Marriage? Movies? Unicorns? Rainbows?
You decide.

Oh man I almost didn't read this due to the low wordcount. But man am I glad I did!
I have never read an interactive fic before.
I tried nearly all possibilities and you were servring tropes/genres left and rigth like Oprah on her 'Favorite things' episodes!
I got my favorite version in the first go, so that was perfect.
Thanks for writing and sharing, I hope more ppl find this . -

Summary
Six months after Clarke moves back to her tiny hometown to raise her two-year old toddler around what family she has left, she expects to do just that, and only that. She has two jobs; full time nurse, and full time single-mother. There's no time for anything else. Not even for the pretty firefighter who starts showing up unannounced at her home, looking for fires Clarke swears are a figment of everyone's imagination. That, or a faulty security panel with a direct emergency call button to the local fire station.

My fic of the moment! Clarke has emotional baggage and a kid and Lexa is oh so sweet and smitten. Can't wait for them to open up and learn what it feels like to have each other.

Summary
Lexa finds herself clubbing more often than not, too lonely to bare spending her nights alone in her bed.
This night is no different, and when she spots three gorgeous women from across the room, she's already got a goal in mind. And when one of the women turns out to be the sexiest person she's ever laid eyes on, it's easy to make up her mind on who she wants to take home with her.Queue suave Lexa, a lot of dirty dancing, and even more dirty sex.
