Bellamy hurried to the room where Abby told him Clarke was. He paused at the door, took a deep breath and then opened the door. Clarke was sprawled on the bed, her back to him. God he'd missed her. He crossed the room to the bed and lay down on the bed next to her. She stirred and turned her head "Hi" he spoke softly when she opened her eyes. "Hi" she replied.
"I'm sorry" he said. "Me too" she sighed. "Are you okay?" he asked. She nodded "A little moody lately" she shrugged. "And tired?" he cocked his head. "Mom told you" she chuckled. "She hinted "Is there something you need to tell me?" he asked. "Roan's sons won't have to fight over our daughter" she grinned. "When did you find out? How far along are you?" he asked. "A few days ago, and a couple of months" she answered. "I love you" he said turning her in his arms "and if you feel the need to run headlong into danger, I won't stop you; but please be careful!" he pleaded. "Going to the ark wasn't dangerous" she told him "and I left Rory at home, so she was never in danger." Bellamy sighed, "I know that" he replied "I overreacted, I was thinking about Octavia when I said those things" he explained.
"At least you weren't climbing ten-foot poles when you were eight months pregnant" he snorted. Clarke eyed him "Really?" she asked, "What else have I missed?" He filled her in on what had happened while she was gone, including the fact that he personally helped move Octavia and Harlo into their own cabin. Clarke arched her eyebrows "and you're okay with that?" she asked. "I've recently learned that I might be a little bit of an overprotective ass who doesn't think before he speaks" he drawled. "Really?" she smiled at him "and who taught you this?" she asked. "It appears I am surrounded by opinionated women who don't like being told what to do" Clarke grinned at him "You don't say?"
He laughed and pulled her into his arms "I can be taught" he said "it may take extreme methods…" he trailed off. "Like your wife taking off with your daughter" she arched her eyebrows and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Yes, like that" he said. "I love you too" she sighed closing the distance and claiming his lips. He wrapped his hands around her waist and pulled her closer "I've missed you" he sighed trailing his lips across her neck and behind her ear. Clarke sighed and clung to him "Bellamy" she tugged at his shirt. Chuckling, he held her hands at bay "Oh no" he snorted "you put me through two weeks of hell" he grinned down at her "granted I may have deserved it, but…" he trailed slowly torturing her with his hands and his mouth before finally giving her what she was begging for.
"I want to go home" Clarke sighed lying in his arms. "It's about damn time" he sighed kissing her softly. "Let's go get our daughter and go home" Bellamy declared pulling her to sit up beside him. "I have orders to get you home before Raven has her babies" he told her. Together, they packed up Clarke and Rory's belongings, and then walked to Abby's suite to get Rory before heading out for their settlement. "I'm going to miss you two" Abby said "but I'm glad you're going home" she told them. With his wife by his side and his daughter in his arms, Bellamy headed back to the rover.
The four-hour ride didn't seem to take as long going home. When they pulled up, a very pregnant Raven waddled over to them. "I'm glad you're home" she flung her arms around Clarke's neck. Clarke grinned "I'm glad to be home" she replied. "Octavia darted up the hill "You're back!" she declared excitedly hugging Clarke and "so is my little niece" she sighed taking Rory in her arms.
Roan walked up just as Bellamy got out of the rover "Welcome back" he nodded in Clarke's direction. "Thanks" she replied. "What's this I hear about you and a ten-foot pole?" Clarke asked Raven. "I leave for two weeks and you get brave?" Raven shrugged "someone had to wire the pole" she grinned. Roan rolled his eyes "I could have done without seeing that" he said wrapping an arm around Raven's shoulders.
Clarke looked down the hill where the cabins were being built, "you've been busy" she declared. "Somebody" Roan indicated in Bellamy's direction "had a lot of time and energy this last couple of weeks" he drawled. "I hope he wasn't too grouchy" she grinned sheepishly. "Only the last day or so" Roan remarked "I sent him packing when he became too unbearable. "Thank you" Clarke nodded at him. "You would have come back sooner or later though right?" Octavia asked. Clarke nodded "Yeah, Abby and Kane gave me two weeks before they brought me back themselves" she nodded in agreement. "Actually, Kane was hoping Bellamy would wait for me to come home. Apparently, he lost a bet when Bellamy came to Mount Weather" she chuckled.
Rory who wanted her freedom was trying to squirm out of Octavia's arms "you can put her down" Clarke said. Octavia put her on the ground. She immediately went to all fours and crawled over to Roan "da da da da" she sat on her bottom and held her hands up to him "Well, look who learned something new while she was gone" he said bending down to pick her up. "And grandma was helping her walk too" Clarke remarked. "I bet grandma was having a good time" Raven grinned. Clarke snorted "her and Kane had Rory more than I did. Besides, she said she needed to get some time in with Rory before she had to split the attention between her grandchildren" Clarke answered. "Grandchildren?" Raven asked, as in more than one?" A smile spread across her face "You're pregnant" she exclaimed excitedly. Clarke nodded "yes" she nodded. Raven let out a screech "I knew it!" she declared. "Congratulations" Roan drawled "any predictions?" he looked to Bellamy. Bellamy shook his head "I'd like to have another little girl, you know to even the odds, but a son would be okay too" he sighed. "I'd take a son" Clarke grinned, "Mommy needs a mini-me too." Roan chuckled "What happened to girl power?" he asked. "Don't you worry mister" she assured him "girl power can still happen!"
