A Modern Clexa AU
Clarke Griffin is a high level executive whose dreams is to be happy and do whatever she wants. However, she can't afford to make mistakes as thousands of people depend on her.
Lexa Woods on the other hand is a famous actress whose...
Luna, Anya, and I were having a blast in her cafe talking about our dreams and what ifs.
Anya: Come on, what's your biggest what if, Lexa?
Me: My biggest what if is probably 'What if I'm not an actress"
I paused for a second and look at Luna. I know she understand what I meant. Anya on the other just laughed since she doesn't know.
I slightly laughed so that Anya couldn't push on it. But then Anya started to look back on forth from me and Luna. I know she knows something is up.
Anya: Okay, what the fuck's going on?
Luna and I just stare at the floor quietly. I made her promise so I know she won't say anything.
Me: Nothin, An. What are you implying?
Anya: Oh don't bullshit me Lexa.
Luna: hey, don't say that.
Anya: Oh shut it Lun. Clearly there's something going on. And I demand for the either both of you to tell me now.
I sigh. I know we can't get out of this so I looked at Anya with a sad smile.
Me: Don't be mad at Luna. I made her promise not to tell you.
Anya: Tell me what?
I paused for a moment. Luna came closer to me and gave me a comforting rub in my hands signaling that it's okay. I gave her a warm smile.
Me: An, lately, I've been thinking about leaving the show business industry.
Anya: What? Why?
Me: It's just that, everything is overwhelming already. I want what you and Luna have. I want to go out on my own, free. And I want to do what I want to do without anyone stopping me.
Anya: You know you can do that right? Even if you're an actress?
Me: Yeah I know, but there's just a lot of rules. And I can't give up on Titus. I became famous because of his connections.
Anya: Do you want me to talk to him?
Me: No, it's okay. It's just a what if.
Anya: Yeah but if it's your happiness on the line, I wouldn't want to say that it's just a What If. Why didn't you tell me this?
Me: I was afraid you'd get mad.
Anya: Mad? Why would I? You're my little sister. I would do anything to make sure you're happy, Lexa.
Me: I'm sorry, sis. It's just that...
I stopped. I don't know if I should say that I'm talking to some stranger online that made me think of my career path. But at the same time, I know it's too soon. I can't risk all my sacrifices for some 'what if' person.
