When Clarke walked alone down the path stomped into the soft earth outside of the gates of Camp Jaha, Bellamy never looked back. He had a job to do, he promised Clarke he would watch over their people and God help him, the last thing he was going to do was fail to see it through. Bellamy helped tend to the wounded as best he could manage and explained to the delinquents that their Princess wouldn't be around, at least for a little while. It was more difficult to explain to Abby that her daughter left almost as soon as they were reunited. Bellamy continued to fight to keep everyone together without Clarke at his side without much luck, but at least they were alive. Those he trusted most and stayed by his side felt more distant than when they were trapped in Mount Weather and Bellamy knew he wasn't in great condition himself. He could barely sleep for three hours a night and devoted every waking second to keeping his word to Clarke, it became his obsession. She didn't ask him to go with her, she would never ask that, but she did ask for him to take care of these people and if that's how he was going to spend the duration of his life then so be it. So Bellamy did everything he could to protect everyone he could. One day though, one day there was a yell followed by another and then another that had Bellamy running for the gates of the Camp and then through them onto the path that had hardened with time. He wanted to stop a that spot where he didn't look back because he figured it would be kind of beautifully symbolic, but despite what he had planned out in his head these past months, his heart took him sprinting to that girl with the blonde hair, open arms and a welcome smile that he thought he'd never see again after the way she left. With her eyes on the now expanded Camp, she only had two words to say to him during their embrace.

Thank you.
