Ch.2
~The next morning~
Abby woke the girls up at seven the next morning so that they could eat a proper breakfast and say goodbye to everyone.
"Is this really necessary?" Clarke asked, looking at the people in her house.
"Yes, it is. You girls are going to be gone for the next four years, maybe even longer depending on what you are studying. Saying goodbye to the people who care about you won't hurt." Abby says, pushing Clarke into the living room where everyone was waiting.
"There's the princess." John, one of their close friends, says.
Clarke's eyebrow twitches in response to the nickname before accepting his hug.
"Don't ever call me princess again." she grumbles, letting him go after a few seconds.
"No can do princess." he says, watching her face turn a light pink color.
"Okay...next person." Abby intervenes, pulling her to the next person in the room.
"Clarke. Make sure you take care of yourself, and the others too." Kane, her mom's fiance says, giving her a tight hug.
"Will do Kane. Take care of mom for me." Clarke says, returning the hug.
Her mom continues to drag her through multiple people before she gets to the last one.
"Make sure you take care of Octavia. I'm trusting you to keep her safe." Bellamy says, as soon as Clarke reaches him.
"Of course, but if she gets a boyfriend that's entirely up to her. I will keep an eye on them if it does happen though." Clarke smirks, knowing how much that sentence will piss off the older Blake.
"I will be there the second I find out she's dating anyone." Bellamy huffs, not liking the idea at all.
"She's nineteen Bell, give her some space to grow on her own." Clarke says, watching his face relax in defeat.
"Fine. Just watch out for her." Bellamy sighs, moving to give Clarke a small hug.
"Take care of yourself in the force. I don't need my best friend to become an orphan because you were reckless in the military." Clarke says, snuggling into the hug.
"At least I know she has you Griffin. Take care of yourself." he says, moving away from the hug before stalking off.
"Alright everyone. It's time for them to leave." Abby says, getting everyone's attention.
There is a final onslaught of goodbyes before the girls are out the door and on their way to the capital of the faerie world.
"Do you think everyone there is rich?" Octavia asks, walking hand-in-hand with Clarke.
"Most likely. Living so close to the palace and all." Harper says, standing close to Raven.
"I wonder if we can decorate or paint our dorm rooms..." Raven says, but trails off and becomes silent.
"I'm sure we'd have to ask our third roommates about doing that. I really wish my mom found a way to get all four of us in one room." Clarke says, swinging her and Octavia's arms as they continued to walk to the bus stop.
"Or at least get two of us in two separate rooms instead of sharing with a third." Raven replies, glancing at the road ahead.
"I guess there is no arguing or turning back now." Octavia replies, looking as the bus stop came into view.
"Sadly." Clarke replies, shaking her head at the thought of the next four years.
"How about we turn this into something great? We are away from home. No parents, overbearing older siblings, or exes. We can be whoever we want to be here so why not make the best of it?" Harper asks, turning around so that she was walking backward and facing the other three.
"She's right. I'm pretty happy that I get to go to college away from Bell. It means I can finally, maybe, get a boyfriend." Octavia said, a spark appearing in her eyes.
"I can get over the asshole that cheated on me like it was the easiest thing in the world. Focus on my work and get the best damn grades ever...and maybe a boyfriend." Raven says, whispering the last part.
"I can finally be away from my mom and her hopes of me becoming a doctor like her." Clarke sighs, slightly squeezing Octavia's hand.
"What about you Harper? What do you hope for?" Octavia asks, smiling at Clarke.
"I want a boyfriend of course. I've been single my entire life and it really sucks. I also really can't wait to start my military classes." Harper says, bouncing a little as she turned back around.
"Let's hope this will be a good thing. For all of us." Octavia says, putting the biggest smile on her face as they got on the bus.
"Let's hope, but for now...I'm gonna get some sleep." Clarke said, making the other three laugh.
"For real though. I heard it's at least an eight-hour drive and your mom woke us up way too early." Raven grunted, claiming a window seat.
"Let's get some sleep then shall we?" Harper said, sitting next to Raven.
Clarke and Octavia sat directly across, with Clarke having the window seat.
"Our new home awaits." Octavia exclaimed, moving to cuddle Clarke's arm comfortably.
…...and Ch.2 is done! This might be a slow burn, seeing as the couples in this have never met before and it'll take a while for everything to happen. Anyways...thank you for reading and I hope you continue to read :) I'm really not used to writing in no one's point of view, so please forgive me if the writing seems a little weird. I will most likely start putting it in Clarke's POV as soon as they get to the school :) Baibai for now 3
