Chapter Ten: Old Memories
I attempted to sleep but nothing would make me sleep, being on earth was stressful I just wished I was back on the ark. Never mind I take it back, I laid my head against the pillow the old memories from when I was just a teenager seemed to linger in my head. I rolled over sighing trying to fight my past. Then the memory came the day I met Bellamy.
"Papa please", I begged.
"Your flaming red hair will tell your a Petrova", he said standing up.
"Papa please", I said.
"George just let her be a teenager for once", said my mother who walked in the room.
"She's a target around here", my father argued.
"I know your head guard papa but please", I begged.
"Don't be raising hell", he said smirking.
"Thanks papa!", I said hugging him tightly.
After a long time of getting ready my long red hair was tied in a delicate braid my mother smiled brightly.
"Katerina did you know when you three months old that you had a screaming fit for three and a half days", she said.
"Yes I've heard this story a thousand times", I said laughing.
"And the only way I stopped was when Aurora Blake came over and she hummed a lullaby and you stopped", I said rolling my eyes.
"Now be home at midnight", she said kissing my forehead.
I nodded walking out the door I felt a wave of anxiety I slowly made my way to the party they played some old music my mom had told me my cousin Jasper would be here so I looked for him when I felt someone poke behind me.
"Monty!", I said hugging him.
"Kit Kat!", he said smiling.
"Where's Jasper", I asked.
"Trying to get with that that girl over there", he said pointing towards Raven Reyes.
"She already spoken for", I said laughing.
"How do you know", he said.
"Because she's my friend", I said laughing.
"Wait you have friends", he said shocked.
I glared at him at annoyance, but he kissed the top of my head and he was instantly forgiven. A song I remembered being played in the past I looked across the room and my green eyes met dark brown. He was hot, he was checking me out. I remembered my braid was still in, I pulled out my braid and my hair fell into perfect curls. The music played loudly, I swayed to the music a guy with brown hair and dark brown eyes that could make any girl melt.
"Your beautiful", he stated looking at me.
"Your not so bad yourself", I said.
"Tell me your name", he says as he twirled me.
"No", I said with a smile.
"Why?", he asked.
"It's a secret", I stated with a smirk.
"I can keep a secret", he said.
"Tell me your name and I will tell mine", he said.
"You go first then", I said.
"Bellamy Blake", he said.
"Katerina Petrova", I said.
"Your the head guards daughter", he said.
"Yes but he's retiring in a week", I stated.
"So Bellamy tell me about yourself", I said.
"Not now I want to know you in a bit because right now a guard is giving you an odd look", I looked over and saw Shumway giving Bellamy a look.
"I haven't seen you before" he said looking at me.
"Yes I'm not one for socializing but here I am" I said with a smile he spun me around.
"Bookworm?" He asked I nodded with a bright smile.
"But once my father retires I will be free" I said with a bright smile.
"Okay let me take you out" he said.
"I dunno" I sighed.
"I'm not going to kill you" he said in a joking tone.
"We cannot go to my flat" I said.
"Fine then we go to yours" I said he panicked slightly but he hid it well.
"Sure" he said smoothly.
"Let's Bounce" I said he raised his eye brows at my slang.
"It's what people used to say when they wanted to leave pick a book up please" I said in annoyance but Bellamy just grinned the party was long behind us and we were on his way I followed him with a smile.
"Have you ever done anything illegal" he asked nervously. I looked at him and bursted out laughing.
"Bellamy I've been breaking laws since I was a toddler" I said with small smile.
"Pot and alcohol consume my Saturday nights" I said with a slight smile.
"Okay I don't know why I'm here with you I've never really stayed this long with a girl and haven't shagged her yet, I've only known you for what an hour maybe two and your different so if I show you this I want to promise you with your life not to tell" he said leaning against a wall running a hand through his hair.
"Of coarse" I said instantly he nodded and opened a door.
The door closed quietly I looked around the flat and it looked like any other one but just a hint smaller. I heard the floor creak I jumped slight but Bellamy's mother appeared.
"Katerina" she said smiling I ran to her arms and she swing me around.
"Wait you guys know each other" Bellamy said confused.
"Yes my mother has called her the life savour" I said with a smile.
"Anyways Bell I gotta go" she said rushing out the door and the door closed. The floor board popped open and girl emerged making me scream but Bellamy covered my mouth.
"What-the?" I whispered out.
"Your rule breaking is nothing compared to this", he whispered in my ear.
"Bellamy" the girl pouted she turned and faced me and her eyes widen.
"She's no harm O" he said to her.
"Holy shit", I said backing away.
"That- Um", Bellamy muttered not knowing what say.
"Your whole family can get floated for this", I whispered.
"I needed to show you this I don't know why", he said confused.
"Well Bellamy it was nice meeting you but I have to be home", I murmured and I bolted out of the room.
