Hey guys, so I'm so sorry for the huge delay in me publishing this chapter. I've had a huge case of writer's block and on top of that I no longer have the internet, but on occasion I do get the internet is when I'm going to be updating. Sadly I have no consistency so the updates are going to be whenever. But here's this chapter, I'm sorry it's so short! I just wanted to give you guys something.
Bellamy slowed down to match Clarke's pace. Wandering around Factory Station amazed and appalled Clarke all at the same time. She never truly understood how good she had it back in Alpha Station. Seeing the ragged worn down workers with young kids playing around their feet truly amazed Clarke. They may have seemed tired but the dedication they have to their families and friends was a refresher. Slowing to a stop Clarke had a traumatizing flashback.
"Clarke! Clarke honey. Look at me" Her father pleaded "You can never tell anyone what you know about the air ventilation system. The council will put you in Solitary until your eighteenth birthday for treason. They'll float you that morning without blinking an eye. Please find a way to fix this. I KNOW that you can do it, you may be in a training program for medicine but you've worked with me enough to know what needs to be done. Anything Clarke, anything is better than dying in space."
"I promise Daddy. I'll try to find some other way!" She cried into his chest while hugging him for dear life. "Daddy.." She whimpered but it was too late the guards came bursting through the front door and grabbed Jake.
"Jake Griffin you are under arrest treason." Commander Shumway spouted off while handcuffing the man.
"Clarke, Clarke I love you and I'll see you as soon as possible." Jake shouted over Clarke's screams.
"If you say so.." Shumway sneered dragging Jake away.
"Princess, hey!" Bellamy whispered as he dragged Clarke into a little divet in the ship.
Clarke blinking back tears she just shook her head.
"I'm fine Bell.." She was cut off by a guard passing. Throwing herself into his chest so the guard wouldn't see her, Bellamy "oomphed" and held tight until the guard passed. "Okay, what was that about?" Bellamy asked looking confused. Realizing she was still in his arms he shuffled his feet and took a tentative step back.
"If the guards see me here in Factory Station they'll contact my mom and make me go back. B-but I'm not ready to. I need to be away for a little while." Clarked stammered. She looked everywhere but at him. She started walking away but quickly stopped because she had no clue where she was going. Sheepishly she looked back at Bellamy who bursted out in laughter, he doubled over grabbing at his sides while his face turned a bright shade of red. Clarke started laughing until she couldn't breathe. She just stood there trying to pull breathes into her lungs and clapping her hands together looking like a retarded seal. Which in turn made Bellamy laugh even harder. Clarke turned away and bent over with her hands on her knees gulping down air.
Bellamy went over and put a hand on her shoulder. Clarke looked up into his eyes, which were positively sparkling with amusement. "You good princess?" He asked with a ghost of a smile gracing his features. Clarke giggled then slapped a hand to her mouth to stop the noise from escaping. Coughing she answered "Yes I am. Where to next?" Bellamy just chuckled, "Do you just want to stroll around? There's not much to look at here." She smiled and answered "Sure."
Two hours later Clarke was waving to Bellamy as she walked away. "See you around!" She called over her shoulder. "Sure thing princess." He called back.
Just after four pm Clarke walked into the cafeteria and saw Wells. She walked over and asked "May I sit with you?" "Of course, why couldn't you?" Was his response. "Well I wasn't sure because of yesterday's episode." She answered while sheepishly rubbing the back of her neck. Looking anywhere but at him she asked how he was doing.
It went like that for a while just mute conversation. Catching up on each other's past couple of days. When Wells finally asks "So where Have you been? I haven't seen you all day and you weren't home when I went there earlier."
Clarke looked away and then back into his eyes answering with a wavering voice "I've been out, wandering around. It's too hard being here with everyone treating me as if I'm this pity party. I can't stand the looks and the unapologetic "sorry's". The silence as I walk past. Well's it's driving me nearly insane."
"Clarke…" He started but she cut him off "Don't Well's." She looked at him again and silently walked away. Leaving him was hard, he was her best friend her only friend.. Well besides Bellamy. She stopped at that thought and shook her head. Could she even consider him a friend? She knows nothing about him. But still he intruiged her and did show her around. Maybe one day they could be friends. Clarke started walking back to her home when Jackson came rushing towards her.
"Clarke! Hey, your mom needs you.. Now!" He huffed. "What's wrong?!" She asked while guarding herself. She had a feeling her mother had something to do with Jake's exectution. She started building walls around her heart and refused to let anyone in. "She needs help with a surgery. It starts in 10." Jackson informed her. Sighing "Alright, I'm on my way." And with that she left to the Med Bay.
