Bellamy
After sobbing for ten consecutive minutes, Bellamy finally built up the strength to walk over to Clarke's bedside once again. He held her cold hands with his and watched her rest. He'd do anything to see those baby blues just one last time.
Suddenly, his wish came true. Her eyes fluttered open and she turned to face him. She looked dazed and confused but he didn't care, he was just happy to see her alive.
"Clarke, I'm so glad you're okay!" He exclaimed as he pulled her in for a hug. She didn't hug him back. He pulled away and looked into her eyes. They were full of terror.
He slowly backed away and looked at his hands and then back at her. She was shaking nervously and he heard the worst words he could ever imagine come out of her lips.
"Who are you?" She asked shakily. He backed away slowly with wide eyes. "No...no...NO! This can't be happening!" He screamed. Clarke started to sob and try to break out of her cot. Abby and Jackson rushed in to restrain her.
"Bellamy! Get the hell out of here!" Abby demanded. Anger boiled inside of Bellamy. He knew he'd kill the next person that even looked in his direction. Abby and Jackson struggled to hold down a panic stricken Clarke. Bellamy ran over into the med kit and got a sedative for Abby. She injected it in Clarke's right arm and she instantly relaxed. She was still awake but she was high off of the medicine.
Bellamy took and deep breath and fell to the floor. Abby just stared at him in awe.
"She didn't know who I was…" He whispered. Abby joined Bellamy on the floor while Jackson put new bandages on a sedated Clarke.
"She had a huge blood loss and she probably hit her head somewhere along the way. Memory loss isn't uncommon and it will eventually resolve itself but, it takes time. How much time, we just won't know until she feels better." Abby revealed.
"She didn't know me." He cried. Abby's head fell into her hands.
Abby was so overtaken by emotions and excused herself from the room. Jackson followed closely behind. Bellamy approached Clarke slowly. She was staring at the ceiling, slowly blinking.
"I'm sorry if I upset you." She whispered. Bellamy sighed and had to force himself not to touch her like he normally would.
"It's okay, I understand." Bellamy forced out. He could barely look at her without choking up. He thought that this was all his fault. If he would have gone into Mount Weather instead… maybe things would be different.
Clarke rolled onto her side to face him. She was definitely calmer now. Bellamy couldn't tell if this was a real calm or just a fake calm that would wear off as soon as the sedative ran its course. He shoved these thoughts out of his head.
"What do you remember?" Bellamy asked calmly. Clarke closed her eyes and thought deeply.
"I'm Clarke, right?" She asked faintly. Bellamy nodded.
"I remember being on the ark and drawing, I was drawing Earth. It was so tranquil. Then, nothing. That's why I freaked out. Sorry about that by the way." She explained. Bellamy start to shake. She really didn't know who he was.
"I'm sorry I don't know you, I know that upset you but… I'm Clarke." She said, slowly reaching out her hand for him to shake. He grabbed it loosely and shook it.
"I'm Bellamy Blake." He greeted. She smiled and a small blush filled her cheeks. This made Bellamy feel a little better.
"How do I know you?" She asked. Bellamy let out a small laugh and then smiled at her.
"I guess you could say I'm…"
Just then Abby rushed in to see her daughter. Clarke gave Bellamy a small smile as Abby took over.
"Mom, where are we?" Clarke asked. Abby smiled and caressed Clarke's pale face. "You're on Earth, Sweetie." She said. Clarke's eyes lit up with amazement, just like they did when Bellamy opened the dropship door for the first time.
"We're on the ground?" Clarke exclaimed. Abby nodded and Clarke sat up in her cot. "Slow down sweetie, you need to rest." Abby explained. Clarke ignored her.
"Bellamy, will you take me outside?" She requested. Bellamy could not have been happier. He held out his hand for her to take. She laced her fingers in his and stepped towards the door with him.
Bellamy held the curtain open for Clarke to step outside. The moonlight reflected on her wide blue eyes. She flinched at her first step on a twig. Her mouth was agape. He gave her hand a small squeeze and she walked forward.
He followed her across the camp and down towards the river. Luckily everyone else was asleep so no one could bombard Clarke with overwhelming information.
Clarke kicked off her shoes and stepped into the river. Her smile was beautiful. She spun around in the water and looked up to the stars.
"What do you think?" Bellamy asked. Clarke turned around to face him. "It's incredible. It's better than I ever imagined. How did I get here? How long have I been here?" She asked. Bellamy helped her out of the water and sat her down on a log. He gave her his coat to wear and she graciously accepted it.
"About 3 or 4 months I think. We were sent here by Jaha to see if the Earth was survivable and once we confirmed that it was, the Ark followed us down." He revealed. Clarke smiled and moved a little closer to him.
"So you never finished telling me, how do we know each other? Did we become friends down here?" She asked innocently. Bellamy chuckled at the memories of them.
"Something like that…" He said. She turned her head, obviously interested. Bellamy looked at his hands. It was hard enough the first time to tell Clarke that he loved her. This time was even more difficult because he knew she didn't feel the same way. How could she? She barely knew him…
"What's our story?" Clarke asked again. She rested her chin on her hands and stared at Bellamy with puppy eyes that he just couldn't resist.
"Our story?"
"Yes."
Bellamy got down on his knees in front of her and held both of her hands. Clarke smiled at him in anticipation.
"I fell in love with you."
Her eyes widened and a pink blush covered her once pale cheeks. Bellamy was shaking. He was so nervous.
"So here's the story of about a rebellious guy who fell head over heels for a beautiful princess, and for some reason, she fell in love with him too and together, they saved the world." He shared. She squeezed his hands as he began to tell her how they met.
He told her about the drop ship, unity day, their day trip, the sickness that overtook the camp, Clarke's tough decisions, and how he lost her. He told her about their reunion. Their first kiss, and how she saved everyone by breaking into Mount Weather.
By the end of his story, the sun was rising. Bellamy couldn't read her facial expression. He was afraid that he made a mistake. He stood up and started to walk away, but Clarke followed him.
"Bellamy, wait!" She called out to him. He stopped in his tracks and turned around to face her.
"I know I don't remember much, but what I do know is that… I love you." She admitted. Bellamy started to cry. Clarke ran up to him and kissed him harder than she ever had before and Bellamy knew that no matter what obstacles they'd face, they would always face it together. As long as he had Clarke, everything would be okay
