THIRD POV
The next morning Clarke woke up well rested and refreshed. Anya had left some time ago because she had a councils meeting. That didn't mean that Clarke was able to sleep in. She was done with her apprenticeship with Ash and now she held her section within the medical building. She was put to work with children 14 and younger. Ash told her it was because the children were calmed by her presence. They were all cute and fun anyways so she didn't really mind.
Arriving at the building she found that she already had a patient. A toddler going on four had eaten something that he wasn't supposed to and was now running a seriously high fever. His mother said he'd eaten something called Raspin fruit. Very rare but extremely poisonous if eaten. Luckily they caught in time to get him an antidote. he would be staying in the building for a day or two though just to be safe.
After that she went through a slew of patients. She had a 13 year old girl who fell out of a tree when climbing it. She broke her wrist. A 14 year boy had stepped into a wire trap and it was embedded so far from his initial struggle with it that it sliced into his skin in certain areas. There was the set of seven year old twins who had a cold. The little boy swore he got it from the sister but the sister said it was from him. Their mother told Clarke lowly that they had been playing in the rain and got it the same day. Finally before her lunch break there was a baby that came in. It was so tiny and adorable. His mother was a first time mom and she was worried because he seemed to not be eating. Clarke didn't think anything was seriously though. He was still a newborn; some spent most of their time eating others sleeping. Clarke suggested that if it went on it'd be safe to bottle feed him if he fell asleep that way he was still technically eating.
"Ugh" Clarke sighed as she took a seat down at the table. She said across from Monty and to the left of Raven.
"Hey there working girl. Busy day?" Jasper asked with a smirk.
"Yeah. But I really enjoyed it." Clarke told him with a genuine smile.
"They've got you working with the minis right?" Monty asked.
"You mean children? Yeah. I saw about six children so far." Clarke explained.
"Nothing serious right?"
"The most serious thing was a toddler eating a poisonous fruit. He's got to stay overnight" Clarke explained.
"Wow." Octavia said with a frown.
"How were your days though. I'm not the only one with a job" Clarke reminded them.
"We were working on how to improve our defensive wall today" Raven supplied. Apparently her job called for than just building weapons but also defense based items as well. "We're working on a type of security system. We activate it at night to guard against invaders outside the wall so that we don't need so many night sentries."
"How's that coming along?" Bellamy asked. He was working directly with his bond so he knew just how many people were working the night sentry shifts. It's be great to lessen the load.
"Great so far" Raven said with a nod.
"We've got pests on all fronts at work. Flying pests and burrowing one eating up all the vegetable. The herds are fine though but if we don't figure out something then our crops supply is going to decrease drastically" Monty told them.
"We're working on it though" Jasper reassured.
They went on about their early mornings until it was time to head back to work.
Clarke found that it was almost just as busy at the end of the day as it was at the beginning. A little girls arm got caught in a bear trap. The only reason it didn't have to be amputated was because of the thick cloth surrounding the teeth. It protected her bones from snapping but her arm would be bruised and tender for quite some time. A 12 year old boy broke his ankle when diving from a water falls edge. A five year old had eaten a small rock that.
Nothing too serious had really taken place though. Clarke was finally free and she rushed to the store to buy her ingredients for dinner. She was really looking forwards to making dinner for Anya tonight. There was such a large selection of food but she decided on white meat. Paying for two chicken breasts, broccoli, and a handful of potatoes in addition to spices she made her way home.
After the first knock to her door, Clarke let Anya in. She had just finished setting dinner on the table and Anya had impeccable timing.
"It smells delicious" Anya said as she breathed in deeply.
"I hope it tastes as good. I didn't go too out though." Clarke said as she led them to the table to eat.
Clarke had made chicken (Im sorry i don't know. what ever chicken recipe you want), cheese broccoli and mashed potatoes.
"It looks amazing Clarke" Anya said honestly.
"Stop saying that and tell me how it tastes" Clarke joked before picking up her fork and eating. It was actually pretty good and Anya hummed in approval.
"It is delicious Clarke. Truly" Anya told her after swallowing the bite she had in her mouth.
"The best thing you've every eaten?" Clarke asked with a grin poking fun.
"For now. I'm sure you taste much better" Anya quipped back deciding that she wanted to play too. Seeing that Clarke's face had turned an instant shade of red she probably said the right thing. "But truly Clarke thank you" Anya whispered.
"It's okay Anya. I... I really wanted to do this for you" Clarke said backing out of what she'd really wanted to say. Anya saw this too but didn't push it. Instead nodding in agreement.
"Next time I cook for you" Anya said.
"Deal." Clarke agreed.
A/N: Hey guys so I'm a terrible and sucky person. I kept saying it was going to be up so many times but it never way and I'm so sorry for that! I hope this chapter is okay and if it looks weird I'm sorry for that too. I typed it up on fanfiction instead of word so if the formatting is different that's why. Tell me what you all think and don't be shy! Until next time!
