For my story to flow a bit smoother I made a few adjustments, two I will tell you now and the others you will have to find out as we go. The first being that the Unity day Masquerade where Octavia got caught actually happened two and a half years before they went to earth, not a year before. The reason for this is because it will give the Blake siblings more time to get to know Clarke. The other is that Clarke and Wells are friendly with each other, but I see it as more of a forced friendship because their parents are so close. So not on a best friend level but friendly at the least.
I don't have a beta at this time (want to do it? PM me!) so all mistakes are mine. Please if you find any, do let me know.
Thank you and I hope you enjoy! If so leave me a review and let me know what you think? Or even if you don't, I take feedback in all forms, as long as it's constructive.
When Lieutenant Shumway, no, Commander Shumway informed him of what was going to happen to his sister and 99 other delinquents, Bellamy knew instantly he would be going as well. His sister needed him and he needed to protect her. His mind also thought of the other girl he needed to go for. The girl who had become the light in their darkness, the light in his darkness.
He would do what was demanded of him, hating every second of it. But he would do it. Family was everything to him and that was what Octavia was. And her, well, she was everything he didn't know he was lacking in his life. He missed his chance with her before, but this time nothing would stop him. His angel would be his and she would finally know that he would do anything to be hers.
He remembered the first time he saw her. Unsurprisingly it was when she had stepped in to save his sister and him. Bellamy didn't know it at the time but he later learned that it was a trait he would both come to love and hate in her. She was so selfless at times, so good, that it made him want to shake her a few times to get her to wake up and see that not everything was unlimited water rations and underwear not worn by countless others before you.
The first time was the night of the Unity Day Masquerade when Bellamy was frantically searching for a way to get his sister out safely. Then like an angel sent down just for them, she stepped in and saved them.
Octavia's eyes were wide open in fright as she asked him how to get home. He was so upset at himself, why did he do this to her? All he wanted was for her to have some fun and he ruined it. He had one job, to protect her, and he failed.
Lieutenant Shumway was about to ask for her I.D. chip when a blonde angel came up from behind them, grabbing his sister by the hand with a large smile.
"There you are! I thought I lost you! Come on now, my dad will worry if we don't get back soon. He'll want to know we are alright."
My sister looked at the beautiful angel in shock that quickly turned into joy but I noticed that Lieutenant Shumway looked at her full of loathing. What had she done to make him feel that way?
"Miss. Griffin, does your mother know where you are tonight?"
Their angel stiffened just enough for him to notice at the Lieutenant's words.
"I don't see what business it is of yours. But if you must know, my father does."
"Does he now? I doubt that."
Shumway had a sneer on his face that Bellamy wanted to punch off.
"So you think you know what is in my father's head? You aren't that high up on the food chain yet Lieutenant Shumway to think you know anything about what he thinks."
She had spunk and fire but the words only fueled the Lieutenant's anger. He leaned in and got into her face as he spoke in a low dangerous tone.
"Little girl, you have pushed me for far too long, if it wasn't for your father I would have had you floated you already! This time your father isn't around to-"
"Isn't around to what?"
They all had turned around to look at the new face that spoke. Behind them was a male slightly taller than Bellamy himself. He first looked at the angel with care and love and then in anger at the Lieutenant.
"Lieutenant Shumway is there an issue with my daughter and her friend that I need to know of?"
"No Sir. I was just going to check their I.D. chips and send them on their way."
"Well I'm here now and my wife will be worried and waiting for us to get back home so maybe you should go do checks on people you don't know personally. This cadet and I will make sure the girls arrive home safe."
"But sir, I don't know your daughters friend is, I have to check her."
"Are you saying I don't know who my daughters friends are?"
"No sir, not at all. I hope you all have a great evening."
It had been amusing to see the normally hard assed Lieutenant brought down by a few words and walk away seething.
The angel's father turned to him and seemed to study him for a moment as if trying to place his face. Bellamy's thoughts were confirmed a second later.
"Cadet Blake, I assume you can escort this young lady home?"
Bellamy could only nod, his body was still pumped full of adrenaline, still primed with the strong flight or fight response caused by his fear that his sister would get caught.
"Good man. Ladies, let's go please."
Bellamy watched as their saviour, who was still holding his sister's hand, smiled at her and pulled her forward. As soon as they made it out into the hallway the father lead them to a corner and looked around to make sure no one was close.
"Clarke what on earth were you thinking? You know your mother told you that you had to study tonight! I can't keep pulling you out of trouble, one of these days you will have to dig yourself out you know. And this time you almost dragged others along with you! You know going against the guard isn't a game!"
The angel, he knew her name now but angel suited her far more, shrunk into herself some at her father's disappointed tone.
"I wasn't looking for trouble! I just wanted to go out and have some fun, find someone my age to talk to, maybe even have a friend of my own that didn't talk to me just because of who you and mom are. I'm tired of being stuck at home, I study all day and most nights. I'm sorry I didn't listen to her but she never listens to what I want either! I have four more years to become a doctor, I don't have to study all the time." She looked down and mumbled softly, but not so soft that the others didn't hear. "Besides I don't even think I want to be one, I just want to draw."
Her dad's face softened at the mention of her wanting her own friend and then scrunched up in anger when she mentions her mother not listening to her.
"We'll sit down and have another talk with your mother, see if we can come to an agreement on a few things. But none of that explains why you back talked Lieutenant Shumway, again might I add."
She looked at his sister with fondness, a look he had only seen directed at her by him and their mother. Octavia was staring back at her like she was her new hero. A look that made Bellamy jealous, before now he had been the only one to receive a look like that. Not even their mother did.
"She looked so scared dad, you know what a bully he is. I had to do something!"
Her answer seemed to amuse her father somehow, like it was a reply he got often.
"I think that's enough excitement for one night, say your farewells, it's time to head home."
"But dad can we walk her home? So I know where she lives and can visit her!" Clarke gave a wide hopeful grin to her father before turning to his sister and bombing her with questions. "I mean is that ok with you? Do you like to read? How about drawing? Would you like to come over to my place and watch old recordings? My dad likes to watch football ones but we can borrow better ones from the archives!"
Bellamy watched the two girls, both wanting something they couldn't have, wishing he could give it to them. Clarke's father's face said that he felt the same way.
"I'm sorry Clarke but it's for the best if you part ways now."
With that statement Bellamy knew he was right, her father did know who he was and more importantly, who his sister was. But why didn't he turn them in? He had the perfect chance to. Bellamy looked at the older man and saw the answer on his face, understanding, concern, compassion, sorrow. He knew they wouldn't be turned in by this man.
Clarke didn't like his answer at all. "Why is it for the best? Don't you want me to have a friend? I promise I'd only go straight to her quarters or ours, I wouldn't go anywhere you didn't know about. Please dad, please?"
Her pleas made her father almost give in, Bellamy could tell, but he could also tell that he wouldn't. He gently pried his daughter's hand from Octavia's and pulled her to him.
"I'm sorry little bird, it really is for the best, for both of you. Come now, it's time to go."
Clarke yanked her arm away and ran away from them, yelling back as she did. "You're just like mom, you only want me to be friends with who you want, not who I want! I hate you!"
Before he left after his daughter he turned a painful expression towards the Blake siblings but spoke to Bellamy.
"I'm sorry about that. It wasn't my intention for either girl to get hurt. If you ever need a doctor, she is training to be one and is in the top of her class. If you ever need her, seek her out. Her name is Clarke Griffin. She can be trusted with any secrets, trust me." He ended with a very pointed look at Octavia, and with that he left.
But it wouldn't be the last time Bellamy spoke with either of them. For they would cross paths again. It seemed like fate had made it so their lives would be entwined from this day forth.
