Bellamy

Some liked to say that Bellamy lacked ambition, that he was never going to get anywhere in life. There were days he took their words to heart, worrying that they were true and he was never going to get his shit together. He knew what O would say to that one.

'Stop being such an idiot Bell, you just haven't found the right path yet. Besides you'll always be my big brother', he smiled at the thought of hearing her voice again.

Bellamy was what one would call more of a free spirit. After high school he left his home town and since then he had been doing a little of everything. He was content with that lifestyle, cruising around, sleeping with one hot girl after the next and never having to worry about a boring life.

That is until he got a texted from his best friend Miller. Turns out he had just gotten left his uncles old shop when he passed a few months back. He wanted to bring it back to life, start working on cars and having a steady job. At first he didn't like the idea, but it slowly grew on him.

There was a plus side to all of this, he would be back in the same town as O. He hadn't exactly told her about that one yet, and that was for one very crucial reason.

"Just sign here Mr. Blake and all will be in place. You will work with the student for four weeks as highlighted above. You will be assisting them with nude portraits which you agree to by signing this paper here and you will be paid a total of 100 dollars a week", the man across the table looked less then interested in Bellamy as he slid the papers back over.

Before he could open his mouth to ask when to come back for the next session the man started speaking, "Return here Tuesday at precisely 9 o'clock to meet the student you will be paired with" he finished.

Bellamy nodded and stood up. He stuffed his hands into his pockets before walking out of the stuffy room and into the cobblestone court yard at the local university. What had he just signed up for?

He knew it was probably a bad idea, but he was strapped for cash and they needed to buy equipment for the shop. Miller had neglected to tell him that there was no actual machines left in the place. Plus this would be a nice easy job where he could make a few hundred bucks. He had also noted there was nothing in is contract that said he wasn't allowed to flirt or fool around with his student. That was a whole other incentive.

Bellamy had just signed his next 4 weeks away to Arkadia University, more accurately their arts department. He was going to be a nude model for the upper level art class. There was something utterly cliche in this whole scenario.

He smirked to himself as he looked over towards a group of university students and shook his head. Just him and one lucky student working together for four weeks, this was going to be good.

As he walked off campus he pulled his phone out and dialled his sisters number.

"Hey O" he greeted when she finally picked up a soft smile covering over his features, he really had missed her.

"Bell?" he heard a surprised voice on the other side of the line.

"Bell! It's been months!" she exclaimed and he couldn't tell if she was excited or angry.

"I know O, I'm sorry I got caught up in a whole lot of mess back in Dallas" he said before shaking his head at the memories.

"Anyway I called to tell you I'm back in town working with Miller. We're getting a shop set up to start working on cars" he said grinning, he decided starting with the good news was probably a good plan after all.

"Really? Bell that's such good news! We have to catch up sometime this week? I live with my roommate, but you'll like her she's super nice" she said as he heard something crash int he background.

"Well O, there is something else. I signed up to be a model at one of the universities here, so I may be tied up for a little while, but I miss you. This Friday we'll go out or something. I'll get Jasper and Monty together and we can hit a bar" he said before grimacing into the phone. "O what was that?" he asked.

"Octavia" he heard someone in the background yell, "Octavia the stove is on fire, fire!", the frantic voice called.

"Relax C, I've got it all under control. I wanted to surprise you with dinner after your day today!" he heard Octavia explain her voice calm.

"You know what O I would rather actually have a house" he heard the girl in the backdrop explain, she sounded like she had her hands full.

"I'll call you back Bell, my roommate looks like she wants to kill me" Octavia chirped into his ear before the line fell away.

He smiled and shook his head before he pulled his hood up over his curls. He didn't know if he should be more worried about his sister or the girl she was living with. He just hoped she was making good choices in all of this, she could get herself into some pretty compromising situations.

Bellamy slipped back into his car before he drove back to Millers apartment. Luckily he had a spare room there he was letting Bellamy crash in so he could forgo paying rent for a little while. He seemed so excited about their shop, talking about how good it was going to be.

He was excited, but he tried not to let anything get his hopes up. He had a sinking feeling that maybe this would all fall through in the end, and he would find himself back out on the street.

Bellamy told himself he liked the nomad lifestyle, but he was usually lying. He missed having a family, and friends he could rely on. He longed for a steady relationship that lasted longer then 24 hours. He would never admit this to a soul, but he got lonely.

He was putting a lot of trust in Miller for this one, if this fell through he would be out on his ass. Then again Miller seemed to have a pretty stable life. Him and his boyfriend Bryan seemed very happy, and this work was getting everyone focused on something positive.

Bellamy shook the small droplets of rain out of his hair as he walked into the dark apartment.

"Miller?" he called before slipping his shoes and coat off. "In here!" He heard a voice from the kitchen.

"How did the interview go B?" he heard Miller ask once he stepped into the kitchen. He sniffed the air his stomach growling.

"Good, I got the job" he said his voice distracted as he looked over at the stove. Bryan was cooking something that looked absolutely amazing, and he was starving.

"Ah, yes. I'm making some pasta and chicken for dinner" he said Bryan explain. Bellamy grinned and sat down nodding.

"I got we kick Miller out and you and I can live here together. Just so long as you keep cooking like that" Bellamy said his voice teasing.

"Hey, he's mine" he argued protectively before standing up and wrapping his arms around his boyfriends waist.

"Hmm, and I won't forget it" Bryan said before leaning back to press a peck to the other boys cheek.

"Please. Stop being cute" Bell grumbled before rolling his eyes. He shook his head and smiled a little. He may not always admit it, but he did love living with these weirdos. It was nice having other people around again, and he was grateful that they didn't judge him on his past.
