Hey Clarke,
Octavia told me what happened the other day with Atom. I just wanted to write to say thanks for helping her. I swear that asshole waits until I'm out of the country and then pulls this shit. She better learn her lesson and stay away from him now. Or else I'm hoping the next plane out of here and I'm going to lock her in the damn basement until she's 40.
Again, thanks.

Hey Bellamy,
Don't worry about it. She may be your sister, but she's still my best friend. I would never let anything happen to her. And you're right. The asshole does wait until you're deployed to do something. That's why I made sure I hung out with Miller, Jasper and Monty on Valentine's Day at the same bar O and dickhead were going to. I almost made Miller bring his gun, but I knew that would probably cause more problems then help.
Anyway, stay safe over there and keep in touch.

Hey Clarke,
You should have made Miller bring his gun. He would have been glad to have a chance to use it on the "dickhead." Lol. I would have loved to see you knock him out. I'm going to have to call Miller and get a play by play.
What's with the different email? No longer at Ark U?

Bellamy,
Yes, I'm still at Ark U, but Monty is convinced the email system for the school is the easiest to hack so I try to just use it for school purposes and keep personal stuff here. I'm actually suppose to be studying for my last exam, but instead I'm writing to you. I don't know which is worse.
And Miller wasn't around for the "incident." He was chatting some girl up at the bar and missed the whole thing. However, I think Monty may or may not have gotten it in on video. At least that's what Jasper keeps telling me. He says it's the "most epic smack down in the history of the world." I haven't seen it so I don't know. All I know is I ended up with bruised knuckles which still hasn't healed. And now I'm doing Monty's laundry for the next month to keep it off the internet. I can't have hospitals seeing it before I get an internship when I graduate.

Well, princess. You have gotten my attention and I will need to see this video now. I'm sure Jasper is over exaggerating. There is no way it was the "most epic smack down in the history of the world." I think I came name a few Greek battles that were pretty epic. How's the hand?

Not too bad these days. Monty took pity on me and I got out of doing laundry, but he said he's holding onto the video for future blackmail so I'm sure you'll be able to weasel it out of him.
Octavia told me you had been sent on a recon mission. I hope everything was good and your unit came back safe.

Yeah, princess. We made it back okay. We're in a pretty okay area so most of our missions are more peace missions helping locals with various things. Just yesterday, this kid came running into the camp with a soccer ball. It had gotten run over by a truck from the other guys. One of the guys in my unit had given the soccer ball to the kid so they would have something to play with while at school. The schools here don't have much so we try and get them some things, but it's hard. Most families can't afford to send things for the kids and we can't get access to stuff and pay for it ourselves. And the Army doesn't have the resources either.
Speaking of O. How's she been doing? She seemed down when I talked to her yesterday. Is she still hung up on that asshole?
Bellamy

From: clarkegriffin
She's doing good. No she's not hung up on him. She's already got her eye on someone else. And before you start freaking out, Miller and I have this handled. Just focus on what you're doing over there and stop worrying about everyone over here.
O was just having a bad day. She was missing you and was worried when you went on the recon mission. I took her out to dinner and then we sat around and watched all those stupid history movies you love so she could pretend you were here. She was feeling better by the end of the night. She even started correcting all the historical inaccuracies and using her "Bellamy" voice.

Well look at you, princess. I got your package yesterday and I have to say I was surprised to see your return address. I was even more surprised when I saw all the books and toys you sent for the kids. They stopped by this morning and we handed them out. You should have seen how happy they were. Me and the guys were able to take some pictures of the kids with everything. I'll make sure you get them. The guys all say thanks too. For the cookies and other stuff. Now I know you, there is no way you baked all that because we would all be dead. So where did you get it from?
I'm really glad O has you. And if you ever repeat that I will deny it, but I know my deployments are hard on her so I'm glad she has someone looking out for her. Even if its you, princess. And now I need to hear what this "Bellamy" voice is.
What do you mean by you and Miller having it handled?
Bellamy

From: clarkegriffin
Those kids are adorable. Thank you so much for the pictures. I especially like the one of you and all the kids jumping on you. It looks like you even got some admirers over there. Haha.
And no I didn't do the baking. My school friends, Maya and Harper did. I got the email about the kids while we were studying and we got to talking. All the stuff for the kids was from the three of us and some other friends at school. But Maya and Harper did the baking. I did help. I supplied the tequila for baking night. I'm going to pass the pictures on to all of them so they can see them too. We've been talking about sending more so keep your eye out for another package.
The "Bellamy" voice is something Jasper started. Everyone has their own mission and whenever O gets down we pull it out with a classic Bellamy line to cheer her up. It's kind of creepy how good Miller is at it.
And I may or may not have suggested to Miller that he do a background check on the new guy and he may or may not have already done it before I suggested it. He's clean. Don't worry. We're all keeping an eye on her, but she's happy so we're not going to get in the way. But we will be there when she needs us.
By the way, happy St. Patrick's Day.

Of course, princess is only good for the tequila. Your med school friends must know you all too well if you're not to be trusted with baked goods. And next time you three venture into baking, send pictures. The guys over here are already in love. You know the saying "the way to a man's heart is through his stomach"? Some of the guys over here have taken that literally.
The "Bellamy" voice has officially got me intrigued. Upon my return I am getting you all drunk and forcing it out of you.
Thanks again for O. I'm trusting you and the guys to keep her safe until I can get home and lock her in the basement again. It was so much easier when she wasn't boy-crazed.
Bellamy

Good luck with the "Bellamy" voice. I don't think that will be happening anytime soon.
We're having a baking night tonight. In fact as I'm writing to you, Harper and Maya are hard at work slaving away. I'm also hard at work. Someone has to keep the margaritas flowing! I've attached a picture of the two of them baking. I hope it will appease the loved crazed soldiers.
And don't worry about O. She's not boy-crazed. This is different. And Lincoln is different than Atom. I met him last night and you'll probably still hate him, but he's a nice guy and he really likes Octavia. I dare say it might even be love? It's too early to tell, but they're both head over heels and I spent most of the night clearing my throat so they would remember I was sitting across from them.
Stay safe,

I'm still laughing over Jasper and Monty's epic prank. How did you not figure it out? They've been planning it for weeks and you, you princess, you fell for it! I can't believe Miller figured it out and you didn't! Oh man, princess. I wish I could have seen the look on your face.
Still safely laughing in the desert,

IT IS NOT FUNNY BELAMY BLAKE! I was so worried. You don't understand what these two get into when you're not here to rain them in. They almost blew up the freaking house! I swear to god, I can't do anymore of your deployments. These delinquents are slowly killing me! Killing me, Blake! I'm too young to be dealing with this shit.

I read your email and then had to walk away because I was laughing uncontrollably. For two hours after, I would start laughing for no reason. Some of the guys are worried about my sanity. Murphy said I've officially cracked. But when I told them what the nerds did to you, oh man. They're still out there laughing. And they don't even know you, princess.
Stomach cramps from laughing so hard,

Hey Clarke,
I'm really sorry. I just spoke to O. She told me. Don't be mad at her. She's just worried about you. I am too. I'm going to call Miller and the guys and send them to this asshole's place and beat the shit out of him. I'm really sorry.

Well, I just had to bail Jasper out of jail because apparently they took what you said seriously and showed up at Finn's place. Finn's not pressing charges. He thinks that by not pressing charges against my friends, I'll go back to him. And that's never going to happen. Thank you for caring, but you don't need to worry about me. I'll be good after a few pints of ice cream and a few shots of Jack. I found your old bottle in the back of my freezer. It's been helpful the last few days.

Glad Jack is keeping you company. And of course I'm going to worry about you. Contrary to popular belief, you're my friend and I don't like to see my friends hurt. Especially by assholes with stupid hair. You deserve better, Clarke. It just wasn't Prince Charming.
Also, if you get the key to my place from O. There may or may not be some Rocky Road in the back of my freezer. It's all yours, princess.
And by the way, I never called Miller until after they went down there. That was all them. They care about you, too.

I'm going to assume based on the time stamp of your last email that you had a tough day and had finished off the bottle of Jack because if you really think that of me then you're not the girl I thought you were.
I never want to see you in pain, princess. You're my friend. And I do care about you. So put the bottle of Jack down and pour the rest down the sink and order some of that greasy pizza from around the corner and sober up because you don't know what you're saying.
Always here to listen,

I'm so sorry. I was drunk and I wrote the email never intending to send it. I just - I don't know why I even wrote it because I don't think that.

So sorry,

Hey friend,
Thanks for everything. It wasn't just Finn. He's still around trying to "win me back," but he's the least of my problems. I met Raven. The other woman. Or I guess I was the other woman. I don't even know. She came over and I think she wanted to hit me or yell at me. I don't know what, but we ended up drinking and apologizing to each other. And I just got really drunk and angry. Apparently Finn isn't trying to win Raven back. He keeps telling me he loves me and wants to be with me and that their relationship was on its way out when he met me. And - I just don't know.
And my mom is at it again. She keeps wanting me to intern at John Hopkins, but I like Ark Hospital. Its close to home and my friends and I don't want to move away from everyone.
Again, I'm really, really sorry.
Your friend,
Clarke

I'm sorry about Finn and the whole Raven thing. Its really hard being away from everyone when I know you're all hurting so much. O told me she has been staying with you. I'm glad. Miller said he's going to keep an eye on that Finn guy too. He'll make sure he leaves you alone.
As to your mom. Follow your heart, Clarke. You've already done everything she wanted you to do. You want to med school. You're going to be a doctor. But you can't be a good doctor if you don't love it. And part of loving it is working with people you like at a place you like. So if the Ark is what you want. Take it. Don't worry about John Hopkins. Just because your mom thinks its good, doesn't mean it's good for you. Besides, if you go to John Hopkins, you won't get to see my smiling face anymore. :)
Keep your head up, princess.

I hope you're not mad at me. I know you've been busy. O says she's barely seen you in the last month. So I hope it's just that and not me crossing some invisible "piss Clarke off" line again.
I would assume you'd written me off for dead if it wasn't for the baked goods that keep getting sent to me and the guys.

I'm so sorry. First it was finals. Then graduation. It's just been so busy. I'm glad you're still getting the cookies. We baked those at 3am two weeks ago after we had finished taking our first final. We went out to celebrate and some how ended up baking. With rum and coke this time.
Everything is over with and done. I'm officially a medical school graduate and I took your advice. I'll be interning at Ark Hospital starting this summer. So yes, I will continue to see your smiling face. As well as Octavia's and Miller's and Jasper's and Monty's and everyone's.
I told my mom what you said and she wasn't angry with me not choosing John Hopkins. She surprisingly got it and has been happy with me being at Ark Hospital. It will be hard to work in the same hospital as the great Abby Griffin, but I think it will be good. Especially since we won't be working on the same floor for the most part. I'm interning on the surgical floor still, but I've always loved trauma and she prefers general surgery. So we will see.
Also, Maya and Harper will be interning at Ark too. So expect more cookies and brownies. We're going to need to create a drinking night and some how we always end up baking whenever we do.
For once, not angry at you,
Clarke

Well glad to hear that everything is going well for you, princess. And congratulations on the graduation and good luck at the Ark. O sent me some pictures from your graduation. The guys say congrats too. And them made some inappropriate comments, which I will not pass along. No matter how much, Murphy says them. The guys were a little annoyed that when you sent the pictures of Maya and Harper baking, you left yourself out.
I'm glad you got some time to celebrate. You deserve it after working so hard these last 8 years. And, if you ever repeat this, I will deny it again. But I'm proud of you. You were always determined, but now look at you. A doctor.
Congrats again, princess. Enjoy it.

You care! You really, really care! Haha.
Thanks for everything you said. It was really sweet. Unexpected, but sweet. And thanks for not repeating Murphy's comments. I've met him before and I don't need to relive that. Ever.
I started the Ark yesterday. It was a crazy first shift. 48 hours and I'm still wide awake. My resident is scarier than all the other residents. Remember how everyone called Miranda Bailey, the Nazi on Grey's? Well they call my resident the Commander. Like she's leading an army of warriors or something and not interns. I've got a few more hours before I start my next shift. I should probably get some sleep, but O said she was dropping by with a present. A first day at work present. So that should be interesting.
I hear her knocking. I better go.
Stay safe,

Octavia just burst into the hospital in tears. She said you're unit was attacked on a recent recon. I don't know when or if you'll read this. I DON'T MEAN IF AS IN YOU'RE DEAD. Oh my god. That sounds so bad. I'm just - I'm just worried about you. O doesn't know what's going on. She hasn't heard anything from the army. She just heard about your unit on the news. She's freaking out and I don't know what to do.
The guys just got here. We're at my place. Thankfully, I was leaving shift when O came and I've got a few days off. Monty and Jasper were a mess. Miller couldn't calm them down by himself so he brought them to me. Like I have any clue what to do with them. I just got O to calm down and Lincoln was on his way. And now I've got Miller and Jasper and Monty freaking out.
I just need a freaking minute. I don't know what to do. Everyone is worried and looking to me to keep them calm. And I'm just as worried. You need to be okay. Okay? Do you get that? I need you to be okay. I just. I need you. Okay? Please tell me you're okay. Please be okay.
Lincoln just got here. Octavia is in tears again, but he seems to be keeping her calm. As soon as she started Jasper and Monty's lips started quivering again. I don't know how to do this. I don't know how to keep everyone together if you're not here. So please. Be okay.
Please be okay,
Clarke
