Disclaimer: I don't own the 100 sadly, because if I did Bellarke would already be canon.

We make it to the Capitol by mid-afternoon. After mine and Bellamy's chat that night things have been surprisingly comfortable. Though we didn't speak the entire time, we did share some conversation, mainly regarding our likes and interests. The night before I had shared with him my wants to truly become friends, and since then we've been giving each other information about ourselves that we want the other to know about. When we weren't conversing, we traveled in a comfortable silence, with again Octavia talking our ear off. At some points on the ride, I even found Bellamy sneaking peeks at me, a small smile on his face. I guess you could say I am on my way to really getting to know the real Bellamy Blake.

The capitol was definitely not what I was expecting. For one, there was so much laughter. There were people everywhere, conversing and having fun. It diminished a little when we arrived, but it still was mesmerizing. There were vendors everywhere selling everything you could imagine, from jewelry to cooked rat. Yum. The grip of a small hand dragged me from my thoughts. It was a child, and she was pulling me towards a table with an amazing smell.

"Here. Try this." An older lady said to me, which I assumed was her mother. She handed me some sort of meat on a stick, and I felt obligated to eat it. I didn't want to be rude and say no. What a great first impression I would make if I did that.

"Mochof" I say, and I take a bite, praying that it's good. My eyes go wide. Where the hell has this been all my life. I guess my praying worked because this is the best thing I have ever eaten. "em ste very good" I smile, and realize I don't have anything to give them in return. I look down at my bracelets, and take one off, handing it to the small girl. "Gon yu." She gives me a big smile and wraps her arms around my legs.

"Mochof" her mother says. I wave, and walk away. I see Bellamy standing not too far off, looking straight at me with a small smile on his face. I guess he saw the whole interaction.

"That was kind of you." He simply says. I don't get a chance to respond before he begins speaking again. "Come, we can drop off our stuff, then I'll give you a tour of your new home.

I smile at the word home. I haven't really had a true home before. I always felt out of place in space, and life in Arkadia was so intense and problematic that I never really felt at home there either. I hope I can find a home here. I follow Bellamy to into the actual Capitol building, and we take the elevator up towards our floor. As we walk down the hallway Bellamy begins to speak.

"Our place isn't the biggest, but It'll work for us I think." He says kind of sheepishly.

"Trust me, as long as there's bed I'm fine. And it's not like I was living like royalty in Arcadia."

He smiles, stops in front of a door, and begins to unlock it. I walk inside, and I notice a very quaint space. There's a small living area, with a couch, a room I guess goes to the bedroom, and another room I assume is the bathroom area. Finally, I notice the bookshelf. There's only about 10 books, but it still brings a smile to my face.

"Go on, I know you want to." I hear Bellamy say behind me. I turn and and smile at him, then make my way towards the bookshelf. I pick up the first one and I look at the title, "Alice in Wonderland". I smile, though never hearing of this book, I am thrilled that there's more for me to read.

"It's one of my favorites, though I've only ever read a few, so it doesn't really say much. It's um, it's about a girl who gets sent to an unfamiliar place, filled with people she doesn't know, but she somehow finds a home in it."

Wow, who knew the first book I'd pick up I'd relate to. Like scary relate to. "So, where's the tour I was promised?"


"So this is the main council room. It's where our meetings occur between the clans when hard decisions need to be made about our people. We try as hard as possible not to go into this room. Because if we do, it's because something bad has happened or is going to happen."

So far through our tour I have been fascinated by this area they've built. They have really created a great community here. "This whole place is amazing. People have really created a home here. It is definitely not what I though it be."

He laughs under his breath. "And how did you imagine it be?"

I think for a second. "Well, the only grounders I have ever really had relations with was ones apart of trikru, so I guess I was expecting something along the lines of their villages. But I guess I was proved wrong."

"Well I'm glad that you're able to see another side of us." He leads me out of the meeting room and looks out the window. "It's about dinner time, you hungry?"

My stomach growls in response. I smile sheepishly.

"I'll take that as a yes." He laughs. "Come on, because you're married to the second of the commander you get the best meal."

I sometimes forget we're even married. "At least there's some perks to this marriage. Imagine having to look at your face all day and not get any benefits." I tease.

He scoffs. "Have you not truly looked at this beautiful face. You're lucky you get to look at this everyday, some aren't that lucky."

I laugh loudly, "Whatever you say. Now where is this wonderful food I've been told about?"

He 'hmm's'. "Well I don't know if you deserve any food after you insulted my beautiful face."

I gape. "So if I just happen to have a different opinion then yours I starve?" I laugh.

"Well, only when your opinion is wrong, like right now. So I'm going to get some food, good luck with getting fed." and he begins to walk away.

I chase after him while laughing. This joke is going way too far. "Bellamy that isn't fair!"

He stops and turns towards me, "I was the one insulted!" a smile is still on his face.

"Well how do I make it up to you then, cause I am really hungry." I plead.

He rubs his chin and begins to think. "Ok, repeat after me, I Clarke Griffin,"

"I, Clarke Griffin"

"Am sincerely sorry for hurting my husband's feelings."

"Am sincerely sorry for hurting my husband's feeling."

"And I was wrong, he is the most sexiest man in the universe."

"And I was," I stop for a moment, "Hey! You can't trick me into to saying that." I laugh.

"My evil planned almost worked, ahhh! You're too smart for me Clarke Griffin."

I giggle. That's when I notice that he has me backed up against the wall, and we're only a few inches away from each other. I think he's noticed to, because he's stopped talking, and the smile has left his face, replaced with a more serious one.

"Hey, there your guys are I was looking...everywhere...for...you." A voice trails off. I turn and see Octavia standing awkwardly away from us. Bellamy immediately moves away from me. "Sorry for interrupting...whatever that was. Um...they have dinner ready, and Lincoln and I were wondering if you both wanted to join us?"

Bellamy clears his throat. "Oh yeah, we were just headed there."

Octavia looks unconvinced. "Sure, that's what you were doing. Come on, dinner's supposed to be really good tonight." She begins walking away, and we begin to follow, not daring to look at each other. Whatever just happened...I don't even know what happened. That's when I realize, I giggled. I never giggle. Oh boy this is not good.


I groan. "You guys have so much better food here. I swear do you like put some drugs in here or something."

They all laugh. "If they did it would definitely make things more interesting around here." Lincoln says.

"I just don't understand, food at Arcadia never tasted this good. Honestly though, who am I to judge, I barely had any time to sleep, let alone eat." At Arcadia I was the leader, though I was never truly given the title. This meant I had to solve everyone's problems and make the hard decisions, I guess I never truly worried about myself over there.

"Speaking of your time, I forgot to ask. I heard that before your whole group came down you were sort of the healer for your people, so I was wondering if you would be ok with working in the healing center? You seem like a person who gets bored really easily, so It's something to do during the day, plus we could really use the help." Octavia asks.

My eyes brighten. "I would love to. I was actually wondering what I was going to be doing during the day, and you have now solved my problem."

Octavia smiles, "Great, I'll come get you in the morning, and show you the way, and find someone to help you get settled in."

"Perfect." I have honestly missed healing. Once the rest of the Ark came down, my medical expertise wasn't really needed. There were more important things to worry about, like leading the group. I turn to look over at Bellamy, but he's focused on eating. He hasn't said anything since the thing that happened in the hallway. I'm honestly not even sure what happened, but I'm trying to forget how fast my heart was beating from being close to him, and how during that moment I forgot about all my problems in the world, because for a second I just felt like a regular girl laughing with a regular guy. I remember when my life used to be simple. Finishing my last bite, a yawn escapes from my lips. I had been so focused on Bellamy and the food that I didn't realize how tired I was. I'm guessing Bellamy hears my yawn because he takes his and mines trash and throws it away, and begins walking, I guess towards to our room. I stand up quickly. "Um, I guess this is goodnight, and I'll see you in the morning Octavia."

"Night." They both say, and I chase after Bellamy.

We begin walking, an awkward silence lays between us. I don't know if I should ask what's wrong, because I'm afraid if I do he'll close himself off again, just when I had begun making progress. So instead I keep quiet on our walk to the room. And I'm quiet when we enter our room. And when we get ready for bed. And by the time we're actually in the bed, still no words have been exchanged. I want to scream and ask him what's wrong, but I don't, because I'm sure if I do we'll fight, and I don't want to fight. So instead, I blow out the candles and I drift off to sleep, worrying what I did wrong.


I wake up to the sound of boots hitting the ground. I open my eyes to see Bellamy dressing for the day, and I notice that it's still dark out. "Bellamy?" I say groggily.

He turns around. "Go back to sleep Clarke, I'm sorry I woke you."

"Why are you up so early?" Everything is still kind of fuzzy and dark, so I can barely make out his face.

"I have an early watch." He makes his way over to me and gently nudges me back down onto the bed. "Now go back to sleep, Octavia won't be here for a few hours."

So I guess now he's talking to me. "Fine. Have a good day."

He nods, but doesn't say a word. I swear that man is hot and cold. One minute he's talking and laughing with me, and the next he's not saying a word and won't even look at me. It takes awhile for me to fall back asleep. Though it's only been a few days of sleeping next to Bellamy I have gotten used to him being beside me. The next time I wake up the sun's finally beginning to come up, definitely a more a reasonable time of day then earlier this morning. I will myself to get out of bed and get ready for the day. I'm actually really excited about today and working as a healer. I don't know exactly when Octavia is going to be here, so to pass the time I decided to pick up the book from yesterday. It seems like a great one to start. I don't really know how long I am reading, I'm so engrossed in the story that I almost don't even realize a knock on the door. When I get up to open it I am greeted by Octavia. "Hey." I say grabbing my jacket.

"You ready?" She asks and I nod. I notice her hairs really messy, compared to her normal hair, which is always perfectly braided.

"What's up with the hair?" pointing to the mess

She blushes and tries to fix it. "Lets just say, me and Lincoln woke up a little early and made use of our extra time. If you know what I mean." winking at me.

"Well good for you and Lincoln." I laugh. After a moment of silence I speak again, "Hey, can I ask you a question?"

She gives me the sign to go ahead. "What the hell is up with your brother? One minute he's fine the next he's not. Is there a reason or?"

Her eyes go a little wide. "Is it because of what I caught happening in the hallway." I give her a nod. "Actually, speaking of that, what was happening in the hallway?"

I sigh. "Nothing really. We were just laughing and joking around, and he got a little closer than normal and he got weirded out and now he's barely talking to me. After we left dinner he didn't say one word to me. I don't understand why because nothing happened."

Octavia looks straight ahead. "When it comes to my brother, he doesn't open himself up to people, like ever. And then he starts joking around with a girl he just got married to, who he's only known a few days, and let me tell you Bellamy doesn't joke around with anybody. He probably got a little scared, which he would never admit to himself. Just give him so time. He will soon realize that you aren't going anywhere, and he'll be more open, he just has to get used to the idea of someone new."

I nod in understanding. Let's hope he realizes soon, because I want the Bellamy in the hallway back.

Hey guys! So that was chapter 3, I hope you like it! Did y'all watch the new episode? IT WAS SO GOOD. The Bellarke scenes were amazing, and that smile! I swooned. Also, was I the only one who thought Bellamy was about to profess his love for Clarke before Roan interrupted? Speaking of Roan, he totally see's the the connection between them, and I bet you he totally ships it. Make sure to review! :)
