Chapter 10:
Together?
BELLAMY POV:
I walked out of Raven's tent later that night and went directly to mine, I took my shirt off and hopped into my bed, covering myself with the fur we got from the animals we hunted down here on the ground. I drifted in to sleep, having Clarke and Finn's argument from today the last thing on my mind.
Morning
I woke up some time after sunrise, I exited my tent an hour later without a shirt on causing all the girls to turn around for me. I didn't mind it and to be honest I didn't really care about any of them.
I was walking towards Clarke's tent. I entered without knocking or anything. I found her sleeping, tucked in in her bed sheets. She looked so beautiful and peaceful. I have never seen a girl like her, so pure, so real and so good. She was something I had always dreamed of being and she was someone I had always dreamed of having beside me. *What the hell?!? Bellamy you're not thinking clearly!* A voice said inside my head.
I turned around, walking away from her. I didn't want to wake her up so I was going to leave her sleep. Just as I was taking my step she called out to me.
''Bellamy?'' she said quietly.
''Princess?'' I said as I turned to face her, to my surprise she was still deeply asleep and apparently she was dreaming. She was dreaming of me? I was confused as if why would the princess dream of me? It was probably something bad, maybe I was hurting her, maybe she was afraid of me.... All sorts of thoughts were filling my head. My questioning was stopped but her all so sudden voice.
''Hold my hand and never let go.'' She said, still talking in her sleep. I took her hand just as when she started shaking. She was having a nightmare.
The dream
CLARKE POV:
I was running through the forest with Bellamy for the past hour, our demons were catching up to us. I ran as fast as my legs could carry me when we both stopped around a tree. We hid while the demons tried to find us. I turned to look at Bellamy. He wasn't reacting to my gaze so I tried calling out to him.
''Bellamy?'' Nothing.
''Bellamy?!'' I said a little louder but all I got was his blank stare that went through the mash of trees.
''Bellamy!'' I yelled as I took his hand in mine, he finally turned around meeting my gaze.
''Clarke, go! You might get out but my demons already got to me. They want me with them.'' He exclaimed but I shook my head off in denial. I couldn't let him go, not now. Not ever.
''Hold my hand and never let go.'' I told him as we started running again. The darkness followed as if it's priority was to capture us and only us.
''Clarke you know the only way out of this forever is-'' I cut him off before he could finish.
''Death.'' I said as tears filled my eyes. I was scared but also at this moment I only thought of him, Bellamy. He must be too.
''If I go, you might be able to save yourself on time!'' He jumped before me, still holding my hand, convincing me to let him go.
''The only way out of this is if we go together.'' I told him, meeting his gaze. He slightly nodded and I knew what we had to do. I looked at him, him reading my every thought through the look from my eyes. We started running towards the cliff. The end was near and I was so glad he was the one beside me. He turned his head to me while we were running,coming up with his last words.
''Together?'' I asked, determined.
''Together.'' He nodded.
We jumped, still holding hands and falling through the mist. Our life was ending and it was ending with us holding on to each other, together.
Reality
BELLAMY POV:
''Together?'' She mumbled while I gently traced my hand across her face. What was she dreaming about, I wanted to know so badly.
''BEL..'' She was cut off by her sudden awareness of the reality. I held her close to my chest.
''Shhh Clarke, it's okay.'' I tried comforting her. I remembered Octavia, she had strong and frightening nightmares and I comforted her each night. Clarke looked up to me, trying to figure out how I am with her.
''How are-'' She started but I cut her off again.
''I entered your tent while you were sleeping and just as I was walking out you called out my name. I turned at the sound of your voice and realized you were still asleep. I stayed with you until you regained you consciousness.'' I explained to her. I laid her down and stood straight,ready to exit.
''Wait!'' She whisper-yelled while grabbing on to my hand.
''What's wrong princess?'' I said as I crouched next to her bed. She stared at me for a while before shaking her head off from whatever thought she had on her mind.
''Hey! hey. '' I told her to get her attention while taking her hand in mine.
''I won't let anything happen to you Princess, I promise.'' I told her. She nodded at my promise and went back to sleep. She was tired from everything that has happened. She carried the weight of the 100 on her shoulder and for that she deserved the rest. I stayed in her tent while she was sleeping and headed off for a cup of water a while later.
CLARKE POV:
I woke up around noon, I must have been really tired to sleep this much. I remembered my dream with Bellamy so I scanned my surroundings for any trace of him. Not a minute later, Octavia knocked on my 'door' and I let her in.
''Hey, you're finally awake!'' She said joyfully.
''Yeah,I had the strangest dream... Why didn't you wake me sooner??'' I asked her with confusion.
''Bell told us not to. He literally told everyone to back off from your tent.'' She said while letting go a little giggle.
''Why? Why would Bellamy do that?'' I asked her. I didn't recall seeing him at all.
''He spent 3h here while you slept. He went for a cup of water 5 minutes ago and told me to check up on you. '' She said happily.
''Umm.. O, do you know what happened?'' I needed some answer to as why would Bellamy stay with me. Just as she opened her mouth to speak, Bellamy entered. I partially hid under the covers of my bed.
''You're awake.'' He exclaimed.
''Yeah...'' I didn't know what to say. I was filled with confusion, I dreamed about him and now he was standing before me... with all of these questions on my mind I wanted to say something but he beat me to it, finally moving away the awkwardness between us.
''Are you feeling better?'' He asked, the look on his face indicated he was clearly worried..
''Umm.. from what?'' Just as I asked he shot me a confused look.
''You don't remember?'' He asked
''Remember what?''
''I entered your tent to ask you a question but you were sleeping.'' Did he see me sleep? - I thought to myself, a little panicking while he continued.
''Just as I was leaving your tent you said my name... while you were sleeping.'' I put my hands over my face embarrassed. Thanks God Octavia left the room before he started explaining.
''I came up to you and you mumbled 'hold my hand and never let go' you were shaking so I did. I held you while you were having what I assumed to be a nightmare. The last thing you said before waking up totally terrified was 'Together?'. '' Omg, I did not do that oh my gooood!!! I said that to Bellamy.... I thought to myself as the awkward silence covered the room while I stood there embarrassed, still covered with my sheets and hands.
''Clarke.. What happened?'' He asked, gently taking my hand in his. The feeling I felt when he did that was odd, I have never felt that way before. I told him who I dreamed of and what.He carefully sat on my bed right next to me and wrapped his strong arms around me. Comforting me.
''Hey, nothing is gonna happen to you.'' He said, looking down at me with his now warm brown eyes.
''I don't care if something happens to me. I don't want the people I care about to end up hurting because of me.'' Even though I talked about a better half of the hundred, I also talked about him. I made sure he knew of it. I met his gaze and put my head on top of his chest. Wrapping my arms around him I held him tight. His face was filled with confusion. I guess no one except Octavia showed any care for him. He deserved to be happy. For once he wasn't a senseless jackass, he was actually kind. A tear escaped my eye while he held me in his embrace.
