thanks for waiting!

Enjoy :)


Stella POV

Thinking of a plan to escape was harder than I thought. First of all I had to avoid Miller, who decided that I needed to be guarded at all times. Two of Bellamy's lackeys stood by the entrance of the drop ship, so that I could not leave, and no one could come in. the only person who came in those few hours was Miller, who was giving me water and food.

Although he was trying to be nice, I still was pissed off. I can't believe I am being treated like his sister. 'No one can touch me!'. Bullshit. I was NOT his girlfriend anymore, so I did not need to be treated I am.

Then I had to find a way to get out of camp without being seen by anyone. That was the hardest part out of my escape plan. The only exit that I knew of was the front, where it would now be guarded because of the 'Grounders'.

I bounced my leg impatiently for Miller to come back. I had thought of a plan that would get me out of here, and piss Bellamy off at the same time.

My arms crossed, I waited for Miller to arrive. He did hourly checks on me, so I knew he would arrive soon. I put a smile on my face, and would pretend to seem happy to see him. I would use the same method I used with Murphy.

I'm glad my ex had told me multiple times I was a good flirt.

I heard chatter outside the drop ship, meaning he was back. I sat up a bit straighter, and tilted my head a little, pouting my lips. This always worked on Bellamy. I also decided to go a little further. I took of my jacket and pushed my boobs up a little, to give them a little more affect.

But who came into the drop ship was not the person I expected. Spacewalker had walked in, like he owned the place. He looked at me funnily before shaking his head in laughter. I slumped back into the seat, bright red and ashamed that he caught me.

"Should I ask why? Or leave it?" he grinned at me. I rolled my eyes and looked away. This was totally embarrassing. Beyond embarrassing.

"You need to get me out of here" I ignored his question, standing up to talk to him. He looked back at me, rolling his eyes before standing in front of me.

"Were do you plan on going if I do?" he eyed me out, questioning my actions. I grinned at him from ear to ear, knowing he would help me in any way.

"I need to go help my friends".


The density of the forest was far more than I expected. There were trees everywhere, plants, and foreign flowers. So many things that we different then what the camp had to offer.

"How you got those guys to think some girls where showering together is beyond me" I laughed at him, while we walked through this forest.

He smirked at me, shrugging before refocusing into finding the others.

Finn seemed to be in a hurry to find the group, or to really find Clark. There was something totally going on between them. Anyone with eyes could see it. They saw something in each other. But Finn had a girl, her name was Raven. Raven was a good friend back on the ark. We both seemed to run into each other every once in a while.

I didn't even know for sure we were following them, but Finn said he was an excellent tracker, so I was just have to follow him. I realised a lot of things about Finn from those short hours of walking around trying to find the others.

He did have good tracking skills. He was able to find marks and footprints and other things to lead us in the right direction. He also didn't like talking a lot, unless he needed to. Other then when he pointed out little things, or found something new, we walked in silence.

In a way I was thankful we weren't talking. So many things were running threw my mind. About earth, about the grounders. About Bellamy…

Bellamy should have never come. I could of started new down here, maybe even find someone to share my new life with, and forgot about the past. But he just had to come down here to protect his sister. She was 16 for crying out loud. She didn't need her big brother to protect her. And I didn't need him here to protect me to.

I was torn away from my thoughts when we heard talking in the distance. Finn stoped abruptly, placing his arm in front of my to stop walking. I looked to were he pointed and saw Clark and Wells angrily talking to Bellamy and Murphy. Finn exposed himself by walking to them, and I followed his lead.

I knew Bellamy would be pissed that I went beyond the walls but he wasn't the boss of me anymore. He didn't control what I did when I did it.

"Brave princess" Bellamy remarked to what Clark said, stepping forward. She stepped back, somewhat afraid until Finn spoke up.

"Why don't you go find your own nickname" Finn remarked, making a grand entrance while I tailed behind him. Bellamy looked back, first to Finn then me. His smirk died down and turned into a glare.

I shrugged at him, letting him know he couldn't control me.

"You call this a rescue party?" Finn questioned the group. "Why don't we split up, cover more ground. Clark come with me" and then he walked away. Spacewalker. The brave prince.

Bellamy looked shocked as I felt. I didn't think Finn had that much courage to talk back to Bellamy. But then again, he was a spacewalker.

Bellamy stood in front of me, pissed off. "Should I even ask how you manage to slip past Miller?" he questioned. He was serious, the look on his face told me I was in trouble.

"Lets just say I convinced him to let me come out here" I smirked at him before walking off behind Wells. He seemed a bit upset that Clark was with Finn, but he couldn't do anything about it.

"Trouble in paradise?" I questioned him, smiling kindly at him. He took a quick glance at me before looking at Clark and Finn again. "I'm glad you came. You can distract Bellamy. Maybe he will forget about the wristband" he said, ignoring my question.

I rolled my eyes and looked back. He was already staring at me. Murphy was talking to him, but he seemed more interested in me then what he was talking about.

I quickly turned around and focused on finding Jasper. This was the only reason I came out here, and to also explore earth a little more then by walking around in camp.

Minutes turned into hours, and we had been walking forever. We were following Finn and Clark who seemed to be in a deep conversation. Wells talked ever so often to fill the space between us, but he didn't need to. I liked the quiet.

Somewhat during that time Bellamy grabbed me, stopping me in my tracks. I turned to face him, glaring at his smirk. Wells stopped to, to try and help me but Bellamy butted in.

"Why don't you go run along to Clark and Finn, I'm sure they need help. Murphy, why don't you go help him too" he said to Wells, never leaving his stare.

Wells looked between Bellamy and me before sighing and leaving me for dead. Murphy followed suit, sticking close enough to Wells that if he didn't follow Bellamy's orders, he could retaliate.

I turned back to Bellamy, rolling my eyes before crossing my arms in front of me. "What Bellamy" I said carelessly. I just wanted to find Jasper and go home. I was cold and wet and my feet hurt.

"I told you not to come out here, and here you are, not following my orders" he ordered to me, crossing his arms as well. He knew how to pick at me, and it was working. He was copying my ever move.

"I thought I told you that you can't control me anymore. I am my own person. I can make my own rules without you interfering". I somewhat yelled at him. He was getting on my last nerve. I hated it.

"I'm just trying to keep you safe" he told me, using that voice. That voice that made me fall in love with him. I closed my eyes, shaking my head. This was not happening. He was not trying to care about me. I felt him step forward, and felt a leather jacket wrap around me.

"Your freezing Stella" he placed the jacket on me, helping slip my arms through it. I smiled kindly before walking away.

"Stella. Next time you break my rules I will do something about it" I turned back only to see him smirking at me. I smiled before swiftly turning around and chasing after Wells.

I found him some minutes later, walking along side Murphy.

"Take a hike Murphy" I told him, slipping in between the both of them, and bumping Murphy out of the way. He stumbled a bit before glaring at me. He stead put until Bellamy arrived. He looked at me and smiled slightly.

I rolled my eyes at him and turned away. This isn't going to happen. This was the last time I would let myself get close to him like that again. After we get Jasper I will return the jacket and never talk to him again.

I slipped my hands into his pockets, feeling the hard material between my fingers. I felt something smooth and pulled it out to see a photo. Something was written on the back of it.

'My dear Bellamy. Look after your sister and Stella. I knew this day would come, where they would find her, and take me away. I hope you can find peace with my absence, and your sister's. Make sure you keep Stella around. She is precious, so precious. The first day you told me you liked her was the happiest day. I knew that you to would get together. And be happy and create your own family. Don't lose her, I know that you love her too much to let her go. If you did, that would be the day you die.

Remember my child. May we meet again.'

I flipped the photo around to see a picture of Bellamy and I. He had just turned 22, and I was sitting on his lap, my arms wrapped around his neck. We were looking at each other, like we mattered to one another. He had a glint in his eyes, smiling at me.

I smiled a little and remembered his mom. She was the best. She liked me a lot. I was Octavia's only friend and she liked it that I was around. She liked it even better when Bellamy and I got together. She would always want to take pictures of us. Said something about keeping the memories.

Those memories were lost when Bellamy turned in my parents.

I slipped the picture back into the pocket, just as Finn and Clark found some blood next to a stream. Bellamy came and stood next to me. He looked at me then looked down at the pocket.

"She was right. The day I lost you was the day I died" Bellamy whispered to me, so only I could hear. I took a big breathe of air in, and tried to ignore what he said. But secretly deep down, I was screaming with joy. He still cared.

He quickly turned back to the cold exterior he had, and leaned over to Wells. I saw them talking a while ago, but didn't catch what they were saying. I still didn't now but I knew it had something to do with Clarke.

Out of nowhere there was a groan of pain. The group looked in the direction it came from. "What the hell was that?" Murphy asked. No one seemed to know.

"Now would be a good time to take out that gun" Clarke told Bellamy, before walking in the direction it came from. Finn followed after her, then Wells. I started to freak out a little. I didn't want to die. Not here. Not now.

Bellamy noticed and placed his hand on my back. I pushed it away before walking into the woods. He was not going to get close to me.

We all followed after Finn, who came to a stop at a clearing. Up in a tree, tied up was Jasper. We were all shocked.

"Oh my god. Jasper!" Clarke yelled, running towards him. We all did. She was further ahead of us.

"What the hell is this?" Bellamy questioned just as Clarke fell into a hole. Bellamy caught her only to let her dangle. Bellow her with sharp objects, that could kill her. I knew what he was thinking. The only way the ark will think she is dead, if she is dead. He was considering to let her go. Luckily the boys helped him pull her out.

Clarke stood up, shaken by what happened and looked at Bellamy. He had the same expression on, before he turned around and faced me. I raised an eyebrow, letting him know I caught on. He was trying to come up with an excuse but I left it, walking towards Clarke.

"We need to get him down" Clarke said, regaining her focus from her near death experience.

"I'll climb up into the tree and cut the vines" Finn said, making a move towards the tree. "Yeah I'm with you" Wells told him, follow him but Finn stoped him.

"No, stay with Clarke and watch him" He looked straight at Bellamy. He gave his smirk, probably questioning Finn's excuse. "You. With me" He motioned to Murphy.

He looked at Bellamy who gave him the go to go with Finn. "Stella come help you got handy skills" Finn asked while he started to climb. I followed after him only to be stopped once again by Bellamy.

"She stays with me" Bellamy retorted to Finn. He looked concerned about me, but I gave him a reassuring smile. I would be fine. I would also punch the crap out of Bellamy.

"You don't control me anymore" I told him, watching the boys work into action. They were talking about something, trying to figure out the safest way to cut down Jasper. Bellamy was still behind me, his grip on my arm tightening ever so slightly.

"I don't want you to get hurt" He told me, squeezing my arm to reassure me in anyway. For a split second it worked, but then reality hit me like a wave. I pulled out of his grip, glaring at him before trying to walk away.

"There's a poltiss on his wound" Clark announced, while everyone stared up at Jasper.

"Why would they save his life only to string him up as live bait" Wells questioned.

"Maybe what they like to catch for dinner is still breathing" Bellamy answered.

"Maybe what they trying to catch is us" Finn finished he conversation, starting his work on getting Jasper down.

Bellamy stood closer to me, seeming to try and protect me from something. Maybe he felt it too. Maybe he felt the danger coming like I did. I squeezed my arms shut and was totally going to regret this later, but I reached for his hand, never looking at him.

His hands felt tougher, probably from cutting down trees and doing hard labour. I knew he was looking at me, but didn't question my actions. He just squeezed m hand and let it go.

It had been a while, and they were still trying to get him out. Bellamy had pulled me away from the group ever so slightly, to a clearing. I knew what he was doing. If something bad was going to happen, we could run and escape. He kept the grip on my hand hard, so that I couldn't leave his side. Not that I wanted to anyway.

"Be careful!" Clarke yelled at the two working men. They seemed flustered and tired with cutting away. All the sudden, a noise startled the group.

"What the hell was that?" Murphy questioned, looking into the clearing beside us. Bellamy immediately pushed me behind him, protecting me from what ever was going to happen next.

"Grounders?" Bellamy questioned. He was scared, I could feel it. His attitude and mood changed dramatically.

And then I saw it. A type of big cat, a big black one walking towards the group. I gasped a little, looking at the thing. It was huge. Much bigger than the tigers and loins I read about.

It growled again, taking position to pounce at the group. I wrapped my arms myself, and took a couple steps back. It then run. It was fast. Too fast for a cat.

"Bellamy! Gun!" Clarke yelled at him. He went to grab it, only to find it was not there.

"Bellamy!" I screamed hiding behind him. He grabbed me and held me close. But then I heard gun shots. I looked up and found Wells with Bellamy's gun. He was shooting at the cat, not hitting dead on, but close.

It had gotten close to us. very close. It was in the tall grass hiding in front of Bellamy and me. He kept me behind him, holding me for dear life. I was holding onto his arm tightly, afraid that if I let go I may fall. It made noises again, and move around, but never pounced. We couldn't see it. It was too fast to catch something. I squeezed my eyes shut and rested my head on Bellamy's back. This was the end. I was going to die here.

And then the movement stoped. I looked over Bellamy's shoulder, checking the surroundings just as the cat jumped out of nowhere. But bullet him the cat straight in the head. And killed it. Bellamy observed it right away, to check if it was dead before turning to me.

"Tell me your okay" He asked, grabbing my shoulders and shaking me out of my daze. I nodded but my focus was on the cat. That thing nearly killed us. Bellamy looked over at Wells, keeping his arms wrapped around me.

"Now she sees you" He told him. It didn't make sense to the rest of us, but to Wells, it meant everything. It might have had something to do with the conversation they had earlier.


Bellamy's ego had risen a lot when he came back to camp with food. Everyone was happy to eat something other then nuts and greens. I for one was happy until I realised how we were aloud to eat.

He wanted the wristbands. Give it to him and you could eat. I watched the fire from a distance, not even trying to persuade Bellamy that I needed the wristband, to let Cain know I was alive.

He was like a second father to me. My dad's best friend and my hero. He was always around, making me happy and helping me through the hard times. He was always there even if I didn't ask him to be. I needed the wristband on to let him know I wasn't dead. And to come after me.

Nearly to midnight and my tummy was grumbling like hell. I was hungry but I was not going to give in. I was not going to give up the wristband for Bellamy's sake. No way in hell.

But just as I was thinking about giving up, Bellamy made his way over. He kept his hands behind his back, smirking at me. "I heard from a little bird that you haven't eaten tonight" he questioned, raising his eyebrow.

I looked down at my hands and shrugged. "I'm not giving up my wristband for food. Sorry but I need it" I looked up, smiling at him. He nodded, looked behind him then brought his hands to the front to reveal some good looking meat.

"I thought you might say that so I decided to give this to you, for free. I know you need it" he told my, handing the meat to me. I took it suspiciously, he probably poisoned it or something.

"You eat it first" I told him. He smirked before sitting next to me, and took a big bite from my meat. He eat it, giving a sigh of satisfaction and swallowed. He turned to me and smiled.

"I didn't do anything to it if that's what your wondering" he told me. I gave him a look before biting into the meat. It tasted so good! Nothing that I have eaten would ever taste this great. I sighed and closed my eyes, living the moment of good food.

When I opened them again, Bellamy was already walking away, back to his people. I smiled and pulled the picture out of his pocket again. sometimes I just wanted to kill him, very badly. Other times, like now, I wish I could go back to when we were together. As a happy couple. And be together like we use to.
