I dont know how I feel about this chapter, I'm not too happy with it, it may be a little bit of a filler
Please let me know what you all think
As always thank you for your kind reviews, follows and favourites
Clarke awoke with a crick in her neck, she groaned as her senses came fully back to her, she opened her eyes and found herself staring at the foot of a hospital bed, she raked through her memories trying to work out why she was there when she feels a little tug on her hair
"Morning Princess"
Clarke sat up suddenly, immediately regretting that decision, and rubbed the ache out of her neck while turning to face the voice. She saw Bellamy looking at her, he looked remarkably better than he did the day before, he was watching her with a small smile on his face
"Hey" She said smiling back at him, bushing her hands through her hair trying to tame it "Sorry, I didn't mean to…"
"I'm glad you did"
Clarke look down at her lap fidgeting with her hands trying not to blush or grin too widely, he was happy she stayed
"Clarke" She raised he head up to look at him "When I get out of here I would like to see you some time, outside of the Photo Lab"
"Like a date?" Clarke ventured
"Yes Clarke, like a date with food and everything"
That makes Clarke smile "I would like that"
They sit there exchanging smiles and small talk when Clarkes phone starts ringing, she rummages through her bag before excusing herself to answer her phone
"Clarke Griffin you better had gotten laid" Raven yells through the phone before Clarke has a chance to exit the room
"Oh my god Raven!" Clarke exclaims as she rushed out of the room and closes the door to Bellamys laughter in the back ground
Raven laughs "well you didn't come home last night, and Sunday night is your meet up with Mr tall, dark and handsome night natural progression dictates…"
"Raven, he's in the hospital"
That stops Raven in her tracks "Is he ok?"
Clarke leans against the hallway wall "Yeah, he will be, but Raven I was so worried. I shouldn't be that worried about someone I barely know should I?"
"Clarke no-one can dictate how you feel, if you were worried about him then there is nothing to be scared or ashamed off. Maybe it is time for you to actually ask him out or something? I mean how many photos does this guy have to print before one of you takes the next step?"
"Well actually" Clarke begins a grin breaking out on her face "He asked me out"
"About damn time!" Raven exclaims
This makes Clarke let out a small laugh "When he gets out of the hospital"
"You should just run out and get food and get your first date out the way in the hospital or something"
Clarke laughs at that, she proceeds to let Raven know she would be home later before hanging up the phone; she stares at her phone thinking over what Raven had said it was time to take a step, Bellamy had asked her out but that did not mean she needed to wait for him to get out of hospital.
She looked at Bellamy through the door, he had his phone in his hand and appeared to be reading something he looked up and met her eye a smiling at her, Clarke couldn't help but smile in return the butterflies in her stomach started up as if she needed a reminder that she liked this man.
With that she made her decision she knew what she was going to do. She opens the door and walked back into the room
"Everything ok?" He enquires
"Yeah was just my housemate Raven checking in since I didn't come home last night"
He nods in acknowledgement "O was checking in" he gestures towards his phone
"Is she not coming in today?"
"Nah, she has to start lesson prep for the start of term. She is teaching PE and Health at Arc high" He clarifies
Clarke smiles at that checking the time, which reads 10am. He notices this
"I'm not keeping you am I?"
She internally screams "No!" but realises if she is going to set her plan into action she will need to go home for at least a few hours
"Of cause not, but I will have to head home soon I have some things I need to do"
He nods again "I understand, I can't expect you to stay here to babysit me"
His phone alerts him to an incoming message which distracts his attention while Clarke busies herself gathering her belongings.
"O said I need to get your number before you leave, also she wants me to give her number to you in case you want to contact her" He rolls his eyes "Because you are going to want to talk to my sister who you have met once"
"Its fine" Clarke reassures him
They exchange numbers and Clarke squeezes his hand and promises to come and visit him. He smiles at her before the nurse comes in to check him over; Clarke uses this as her out waving to him as she exits the room.
—B&C—
Clarke sits in her car and pulls out her phone, it is 10am now and she has nothing on during the day so she has plenty of time to plan everything she opens a new message, take a deep breath and starts her message
Hi Octavia, its Clarke Bellamys friend we met last night
Clarke put her phone down and goes to start her car when her phone goes off
Hey Clarke thanks for watching over Bell last night
Clarke takes a deep breath it is time to do this
This might sound weird but what is your brothers' favourite movie?
Before Clarke can overthink anything she starts her car and starts driving in the direction of home.
When she parks she has a message from Octavia letting her know the information she asked for, Clarke starts the trek up to her apartment fully expecting Raven to be there waiting for her when she returns.
Tonight she is going to have her first date with Bellamy she cannot wait anymore.
