Based around the song by Shawn Mendes ~~~~~~ I do not own the 100 or any of the songs that have influenced these one shots. I recommend listening to the song while reading


It was dark in the flat, and it was late when he got home. It was always late when he got home. Clarke sat at the kitchen island, her brilliantly bright phone screen illuminating her face. She still couldn't believe it. He told her that he'd be back late because he had coursework due in so he'd be at the library. Doubtful that it was actually the truth. She checks the clock, it was just about to turn midnight. That's when she heard the keys in the door before someone flicked the lights on.

"Hey babe, what are you doing up?" Finn rounded the corner and threw his bag onto the settee before he noticed Clarke sitting there.

"I was waiting up for you." She stood up and flicked the kettle on so that she had her back to him. She couldn't stand to look at him.

"I told you I'd be back late, you should have gone bed." His tone of voice made her think he actually cared before she scolded herself for believing his lame excuse once again.

"This couldn't wait." She turned around and saw the confused expression that was etched into Finns features.

"What's going on?" He went to place a hand on her arm but she moved it away causing him to look hurt. She almost barked out a laugh at him.

"I know what you did last summer." She watched as his face fell. She silently dared him to deny it. short silence fell over the flat. "Just lie to me!" Clarke shouted at him as he hung his head. Tears began to sting her eyes before they left hot streaks down her cheek. "Look me in the eyes and tell me there's no other."

"I didn't mean it, I swear I didn't mean it."

"Just tell me where you've been." Clarke watched as Finn wandered around the flat, pacing, running his hands through his hair. "I'm an idiot!"

"No, no, no, no, no. You are not an idiot" Finn wiped away some of her tears before she pushed him away.

"I am! I cant seem to let you go and I cant seem to keep you close."

"I didn't mean though, you know I didn't mean it!"

"Finn just leave. Please just leave."

"Please don't let me go! Clarke please."

"Just go!" Clarke shoves him closer to the door, pleading with him to leave. She slams the door behind him. The sound is slightly muffled but she can still hear him.

"I didn't mean it though! I don't want let you go!" Clarke waits to hear him leave before she calls Octavia.

"He's gone." She hears Octavia sigh on the other end of the phone.

"It's for the best Clarke."

"I know"
