Hey guys :)

So here is the next chapter :D

Few cute moments! Hope you'll like it!


They were all lying on the ground, covered with Finn's tent. Charlie was at the end, next to Bellamy. While they were waiting, he arranged the bandage on her hand, tying it gently and delicately. It felt good. While he was doing so, she looked at his face, seeing the worry in his expression. He was also really focused, concentrating on helping her without hurting her. He was frowning a bit and clenching his jaw. He was gorgeous. After he finished it he looked at her, with his worried eyes. He was worried about her! He cared about her. She saw that in his eyes. And that felt good. She made a little smile of thank you to him and he half-smiled back. With the back of his hand, he caressed her cheek, looking at the scratch the branches had left on her skin. What she saw in his eyes mesmerized her. Was it love? She wasn't sure, but it made her feel really good. She caught herself wanting this moment never to end. What? They were under a tent, threatened by Grounders and acid fog, searching for a missing Octavia, she was hurt and it was not a freaking nice moment. But yeah she wanted that moment of silent sweetness between her and Bellamy to never end. He looked back at her and she saw in his eyes that he agreed with her. Just as they were sharing this special thing, Jasper broke the silence, remembering them they weren't alone. Sadly.

"How do we know we can go out?"

Bellamy sighed heavily, closing his eyes for a second. He then stood on his knees, opening the tent.

"We don't."

Well. No storm. They all came out of the tent, carefully, looking around for Grounders.

"There!" whispered Jasper, pointing in the direction of the only Grounder at sight.

Damn he had a gift to see them. For real, he was always the first!

"He's alone and not coming toward us..." whispered Charlie, frowning. That was weird.

"I'm following him." said Bellamy, with his determined look.

"What, to kill him?" asked Finn, sceptic.

Bellamy clenched his jaw.

"To catch him so he tells me where Octavia is." he started. Charlie saw his grip on his knife tightening. It was not good. "And then kill him."

And he walked away, bended so the Grounder won't see him.


They followed the Grounders for maybe five minutes before he disappeared.

"Where is he?" asked Jasper, looking nervous.

They continued a bit further.

"I think he went down there." said Charlie, pointing at what seemed to be an entrance to a cavern.

Bellamy didn't wait much longer and entered, followed by the other. It was a sort of cavern, with a long corridor that seemed to lead to a bigger room. Bellamy was the first to enter, Finn the second, Charlie just behind them, before Jasper. Just as she got in the room, she saw Octavia, attached to the wall with chains.

"Octavia!", "Bellamy!" exchanged the brother and sister. "Get the key!" said Octavia, trying to free herself out of the chains.

Just at that moment, Charlie saw the Grounder on the ground. Octavia had probably knocked him off. She was good. And she was soon free, jumping in her brother's arm.

"You're ok now." he whispered to her, just like he had done with Charlie. Yeah, he was a good big brother. The better of humanity, right?

Charlie felt a bit dizzy and leaned on the wall. She was exhausted and wished she could get in bed soon.

"How did you find me?" said Octavia, smiling and walking to Jasper to give him a hug.

"We followed him!" answered Jasper with a big smile. He was clearly in love with Octavia. So cute! Charlie caught herself smiling at their reunion.

Octavia then turned to her, smiling. "Hey, I'm sorry for last time, thanks for saving me..."

Charlie smiled back. Wow, an apology. At least one member of this family was able to do that. Impressing!

"We should go now before he wakes up." she then said. And she was right.

But Bellamy didn't seemed to agree.

"He is not going to wake up." he said with his bad voice, taking a large spear that was on the wall and walking to the Grounders.

"No Bellamy! He didn't hurt me, let's just go!" said Octavia, trying to stop him. But Bellamy was determined.

"Finn, move." he said, still threatening.

But Finn seemed focused on something, kneeling by the Grounder.

"Foghorn..." he whispered.

Foghorn? Wait... Did the Grounder saved them by blowing the horn at the right time? Or was that a coincidence? Just as Charlie was going to speak about this interrogation, the Grounder woke up and suddenly stabbed Finn. What happened after that happened really fast. Octavia ran to Finn, kneeling by him. Bellamy took his spear, starting a fight with the Grounder. And Charlie just stood there, under shock for a second. The Grounder took fast the advantage over Bellamy, throwing him on the ground, threatening him with the spear he had took of the hand of Bellamy. The blade was centimetres of Bellamy's throat. Charlie took a step back, hitting the wall, where her hand fell on what look like a mace. She took it, looking at it. But she was too far from the Grounder... And she saw Jasper in the corner.

"Jasper!" she screamed, throwing him the mace. He caught it and without hesitation hit the Grounder's head. The Grounder fell limp on the floor, freeing Bellamy.

They all stood silent for a moment, frozen.

"Finn is bleeding!" screamed Octavia, breaking the heavy atmosphere.


They got fast to camp, Bellamy carrying Finn that was really in a bad shape.

"Clarke!, We need Clarke!" screamed Charlie just as they got near camp.

The crowd was looking at them, all wounded and probably not really presentable. She saw Clarke running to them, followed by Raven.

"What is it, is everyone ok?" she said... before seeing Finn.

"Oh my god!" she came closer, taking his pulse.

Charlie saw Raven behind, freaking out. Finn was the only thing she had. Charlie went to her, taking her by the shoulder.

"He's alive." she said at the same time as Clarke.

"Can you save him Clarke?" said Raven, more scared then worried.

"I don't know... I have to talk to my mother. I need her help!"

But Raven shook her head as Finn was taken to the drop ship for the operation.

"The radio doesn't work!" she screamed, panicking.

Charlie took her arm, forcing her to look at her.

"Make it work Raven! You are a genius, find how to fix it!"

Raven nodded, gripping Charlie's arm to fight her fear.

"Ok... Ok I'll do that!" she said before running to the drop ship. Clarke followed her, just stopping to asked to Charlie how she was.

"Your hand, are you ok?"

Charlie nodded, exhausted.

"Go save Finn, I'll survive."

The blonde nodded and ran behind Raven. Charlie felt a bit dizzy and leaned on Jasper that was next to her.

"Hey, Charlie, you look terrible." he said, supporting her.

She had a short laugh. "I return you the compliment!"

He smiled, putting his arm under hers to help her walk. They felt rain dropping and a simple look at the sky made them understand that a storm was coming.

"We should all get in the drop ship. This is going to be a long night." said Charlie, pointing at the sky. Jasper nodded and they walked to take cover.


The storm was getting stronger and Raven was still trying to fix the radio. Everyone was on their nerves. Clarke had installed a simile operation room in a corner for Finn, that was lying on a table. Charlie was sitting next to him, checking on his pulse every minute. Her hand was hurting, but there were more important matters. She had heard Bellamy left with some other to find the Grounder and to take him back to camp. Bad idea in her opinion. Just as she was thinking about that someone screamed that the crew was back.

"Is that a Grounder?" asked someone.

Charlie stood up, coming closer, to see two of Bellamy's men supporting the Grounder that stabbed Finn.

"Bellamy, what the hell are you doing?" asked Octavia.

"It's time to get some answers" he said, with his bad voice.

"Oh, you mean revenge?" snapped back Octavia, apparently mad at him. Yeah, they had a fight earlier.

"I mean intel. Get him upstairs" answered Bellamy with calm.

That was the rational and stupid Bellamy only thinking about being the bad king. Not the best of choice. The Grounders would want revenge. They had kidnapped one of them.

"She's right..." said Clarke.

Just at that moment, the radio worked, calling Clarke. She turned around, surprised. Before heading to it, she looked at Bellamy with her intense look.

"This is not who we are..."

"It is now." he answered, clenching his jaw.

Clarke shook her head, going to the radio. Charlie saw hesitation in Bellamy's eyes. He knew what he was doing was wrong. She caught his eyes and pointed a calm spot in the corner. He nodded and they headed there, isolated from the others.

"You know it's not right Bellamy..." said Charlie leaning on the wall, still feeling dizzy.

He sighed heavily, looking at the ceiling, annoyed. "You're not also going to blame me for everything that is happening right? The death of the 320 people? The death of Sasha and John? And the bad things that happen to us?"

She felt he was going to crack. She saw tears coming up in his eyes. She put a hand on his chest, trying to be reassuring.

"No, no... I'll stop ok. Just be careful. I don't want you to finish like Finn on Clarke's operation table."

He closed his eyes a moment and then looked at her, leaning toward her.

"I'm sorry. Everything is going so fast and I'm doing my best to protect everyone. Especially the ones I love."

He paused, looking intensely at her. The moment they shared under the tent seemed to happen again, they were just looking at each other, understanding the other without a word.

"Are you okay?" he whispered, taking her hand in his, inspecting her wound.

She nodded slowly, they were just centimeters apart. "I never got the chance to thank you for taking that spear off my hand." she said, totally hypnotized by his loving and worried expression.

He chuckled taking her face in his hands. "My pleasure."

He kissed her forehead tenderly, caressing her cheeks. She felt a wave of heat going through her body. His effect on her was crazy. After that kiss he smiled at her and turned around, going up the ladder to the upper level, to the Grounder. Charlie crossed her arms around her feeling cold now that Bellamy's body was not close to her.


Clarke at succeeded the operation of Finn, thanks to the help of her mother. Charlie was sitting near them, feeling dizzy and exhausted. One moment she was cold, the other one hot. In brief, she was feeling feverish and really sick. But, hey, she just had a scratch on her hand. Well it was pierced but still. She was in better shape than Finn. Clarke got upstairs, probably to check on the Grounder. Charlie doubted Bellamy was tender with him. She had tried to reason him but she wasn't able to contradict him. He always found a way to turn the situation to his advantage. He had too much grip on her. Just as she was thinking about this, Finn started to shake in a weird way. Raven ran to him, panicked.

"Oh my god..." she whispered. "Clarke! He's seizing!" she screamed.

Charlie got on her feet, with difficulties, coming closer. Clarke stormed out of the ladder, coming next to Charlie and Raven. The three of them tried to keep Finn immobilized. He shook a bit more and stopped, unconscious.

"I saw that before.. Fever, seizure..." she started, a horrified look on her face. "Poison..."

Charlie looked at her, a bit scared. "I don't feel well either..." she said, showing her hand.

Clarke looked at her, horrified. "The Grounder." she whispered with anger.

And she jumped to the ladder, soon followed by Charlie. They got upstairs, finding the Grounder chained to the wall, under the guard of Bellamy and his man.

"What is it?" asked Bellamy, interposing himself between them and his prisoners.

"The weapons of the Grounders... They were poisoned!" she screamed.

Bellamy immediately looked at Charlie, worried. She felt out of breath, her vision blurring. She was not feeling good. She sat down, taking her head in her hands.

"Bastard..." she whispered, feeling like she was going to throw up.

She heard Bellamy kneeling next to her, putting a hand on her forehead.

"She's burning hot." he said, his voice full of fear.

Charlie saw Clarke take the blade that was in Finn's chest out of her pocket, showing it to the Grounder.

"What is on this! You knew Finn would die! And Charlie! Is there an antidote?" she screamed, threatening.

Bellamy stood up, slowly, apparently searching for a solution.

"The vials. The antidote is probably in there."

Clarke and Bellamy took the little case, opening it.

"Which one is it?" asked Clarke to the Grounder, angry.

"He doesn't understand you, Clarke!" said Octavia, coming closer.

They were all standing there, tensed.

"He can show us!" finally said Clarke, stepping closer with the vials in her hand. "Tell us!"

Even Octavia joined her. "Please, tell us!"

But Bellamy was less optimistic. "He won't tell anything. I'm going to make him talk my way."

He stepped to the Grounder, but Octavia stopped him. "No!" Bellamy pushed her away, furious.

"He is going to let Finn and Charlie die! I won't let that happen! And I bet you too Clarke!" he screamed, searching for support.

Clarke looked confused, she was torn up in front of this choice.

"Clarke..." started Octavia. "You said it yourself, this is not who we are! He saved my life!"

"We are talking about Charlie's and Finn's life!" interrupted Bellamy.

Charlie felt even more dizzy, sliding on the floor, not being able to sit anymore. She saw black spot and her breathing accelerated.

"Do it." she heard Clarke saying before she came to help her sit against the wall.

Charlie saw Bellamy cut the Grounder's shirt and take a seat belt to form a sort of whip. Was he really going to torture him?

"No..." she whispered, trying to get up.

But it was too late, Bellamy was hitting him. And the Grounder was taking every blow in silence, resisting. This was not the solution. Charlie knew they could find another way. Clarke stood up, watching the scene, waiting for the antidote. Octavia came next to Charlie, horrified.

"This can't be happening..." she said to herself.

And Charlie had an idea.

"The blade..." she whispered, pointing it on the ground.

Octavia looked at her, intrigued.

"If we cut him with the poison, he will show us the antidote to survive..."

Octavia shook her head. That was still not suiting her. What? She preferred to watch him being hit by her brother and to watch Charlie and Finn die?

"I have a better idea..." she said, standing up and taking the blade.

But at that moment, Raven came up. "What is taking so long?" she asked.

Charlie felt dizzy again, losing her sight completely this time. She gripped the wall behind her, trying to stay conscious. When she opened her eyes again, Raven was electrocuting the Grounder. What? Were they desperate and bad to this point? She wasn't going to live because they tortured and killed someone!

"Stop!" screamed Octavia at that moment.

Everyone turned to her, surprised. She took the blade and cut the skin on her arm.

"There!" she said, looking at the Grounder. "Now tell us which one is the antidote."

She kneeled in front of him showing him the vials for him to identify the good one. Her guts was right because the Grounder showed her a vial. Wow. She was brilliant. Reckless and totally stupid, but still brilliant. At that moment, Charlie felt the world becoming blurry and the ground beside her becoming less solid. And all went black.
