Two updates in one day. WOOP WOOP!
Why did I have to be so stupid? I was so out of line to yell at Clarke like that.. The look on her face was imprinted on the back of my eyelids. A look of hurt, shock, and underneath it all, anger. I had stayed up all night going through what happened. After that, Octavia spent a good five minutes yelling at me. "Why are you so stupid Bellamy?! It wasn't her fault! It was mine! I was stupid and reckless! Not her! I swear to god Bellamy if you leave her with a broken heart you will surely regret it!" I sighed, those words playing through my mind on repeat. I drew my hand down my face, groaning into my hand, and then dropped my hand to my side. I trudged down the stairs from the loft, and stopped when I saw Clarke brushing Nova in her stall. It was obvious she had been crying, her eyes were red and puffy, and she looked like she had barely gotten any sleep. If that didn't make me feel worse, I don't know what would.. "Clarke.." I stepped down, and she looked up, and I almost took a step back with the force of the anger that flashed through her eyes. "What do you want Bellamy?" She spot at, and the way she said my name, with such conviction, made me physically flinch. "I just.. I wanted to-" I got cut off mid sentence. "Wanted to what? Say sorry?" She growled, and I could see tears welling up in her eyes again. "Well you're not forgiven Bellamy.. How could you say that about me..?" She stepped out of the stall, and she held up her hand when I tried to take a step towards her. "I would never put someone in danger on purpose Bellamy.. Yes, I realized that she could fall off, she already had before. But that's what comes with horseback riding, Bell.. She takes the risk every time she puts a foot in the stirrup. But I love Octavia, and Octavia loves riding. You can't get upset with me every time she falls off.." She breathed in deeply, finishing her little speech. "I know Clarke, I know, I swear I won't do that again, I was stupid, and selfish, and I realize that now Clarke, god Princess I'm so sorry.." I shook my head, and I could feel the tears well up in my own eyes, and one slipped. Her walls shattered, and she hugged me, her arms wrapped tightly around my waist and she buried her face in my shoulder. I hugged her back just as tight, burrowing my face in the crook of her neck, inhaling her sweet smell as her shoulders shook, and she just cried. And I would be ashamed if I didn't admit that I was crying with her.
At first, I thought it would be easy enough to not fall into his arms, but when he started crying, I broke. I mean, come on, who wouldn't? Bellamy Blake was crying. I ran forward, hiding my face in his shoulder as I began to cry just as hard as I did last night. He hugged me back just as tight as I was hugging him, and I knew he was crying also, and that just made me cry even harder. God this sounds like such a sappy love story but who the hell cares? He pulled back long enough to look down at me, and he reached up, resting his palm against my cheek while he used his thumb to wipe the tears away. He did this with his other hand two, and I gave him a weak smile. "I'm so sorry.." He whispered again, and I shook my head, standing on my tippy toes to give him a gentle kiss. He dropped his arms and wrapped them around my waist, pulling me into him and kissing me, and it was so full of emotion and passion, and I melted into it, my hands on his shoulders. He pulled back, and opened his eyes, staring down at me. "I love you, Clarke Griffin." He said, and with the such an emotion filled voice, and I cracked another weak smile. "I love you, Bellamy Blake.." And I meant it, just as much as he did.. And I know I always will.
Next chapter will start with Clarke's POV, and I know her POV in this one and the last one but oh well, get over it. LOVE YOU!
