(The nobodies- Marilyn Mason)
/Today I am dirty
I want to be pretty
Tomorrow, I know I'm just dirt
Fear the nobodies
Wanna be Somebodies
We're dead,
We know just who we are
We are the nobodies
Wanna be Somebodies
We're dead,
We know just who we are/
Clarke stirred in Bellamys arms, her eyes fluttering open and she saw from the Library window that the sun was just about to rise. She leaned off him a little, and he looked down. She noticed him already awake and raised an eyebrow, "Bellamy," she sighed, "Did you sleep at all?"
"Hard to sleep when you know theres evil robots out and about." he joked
She slightly smiled but nodded. Understandable. She heard a creaking noise and looked around, "Did you hear that?"
He had his eyes closed, leaning back on the shelf, and rubbed them, "You're being paranoid."
She narrowed her eyes, and accepted that theory. She turned back to him to then smile slowly and move her body to face him completely, getting on to his lap.
He opened his eyes, raising his eyebrows as he watched her with desire, "Schools about to start soon, princess. Sure this is wise?" he moved his big hands to the sides of her hips and gripped them tightly, pulling her more onto his lap.
She gasped sharply but smiled down at him and shrugged her shoulder, "Since when does Bellamy resist from doing anything that may not seem 'wise'." they both smiled playfully at another until she leaned in but gasped loudly as she heard something creak again.
He groaned, frustrated, when she lept off him, "Bellamy! I know I heard something." she said and he stood up, squinting his eyes to look down the isle and around the Library.
If she thought she heard something, then he'd check it out.
He walked toward the window for it to suddenly crash and the broken glass shards flew into the Library with a heavy rock. Bellamy had turned quickly, and shielded Clarkes body from it.
"What was that?!" She exclaimed fearfully and he whipped around and they looked at the big rock with writing on it. He bent down, and read out loud, "Behind you.." before he could even curiously turn his head, Clarke screamed. He whipped around, and Murphy held Clarke to him and she struggled hard as his hand covered her mouth. Bellamy stepped forward, blood boiling and then stopped in his tracks when Murphy put a knife to her throat.
"MURPHY STOP!" Bellamy looked desperate, and even begged, falling down to his knees and his big brown eyes stared in horror when he saw a little blood trickle down the knife that was held on Clarkes throat. She winced in pain and sobbed a little.
"You don't follow the rules. There are rules!" Murphy yelled angrily, glancing between Bellamy and the blonde in his arms.
"W-we'll follow them. Alright?" Bellamy insisted, standing up slowly but carefully. If Clarke was hurt or taken.. that'd be the end of him. At this moment, Bellamy realized he important she was to him, more than any girl had ever been with and unlike those other girls, Clarke actually meant something to him. She meant a lot. And he respected her, adored her and couldn't lose her just when he had gotten her. He never even thought he had a chance with her.
Now? He was smitten, or what they call 'whipped'. . Inlove.
Murphy seemed to ignore anything Bellamy said and whispered down to Clarke, "You use to ignore me all the time. I always had a thing for ya, Clarke" he tightened his hand around the knife and she cried out, Bellamy jumped, and Murphy loosed the grip and sighed, "..Shame Kane wants you and won't let me kill you." he pointed the knife in Bellamys direction as he slowly backed up to the door, "But if you follow us? I will kill her." he promised.
Clarke connected eyes with Bellamy, who looked torn on what to do. He almost shook in rage. Clarke started to beg Murphy to let go when he opened the exit door, "Please! No! BELLAMY!" she cried.
BAM!
Clarke shrieked and backed up when someone hit Murphy from behind. She turned, watching Murphys body drop to the ground and he was knocked out cold. Bellamy ran up behind her and grabbed her and she sobbed, hugging him back and clinging to him for her life. Who knows, maybe that woulda been the end of her. Murphy would of brought her to the Ward, and she would of been turned into one of them
Bellamy looked up and Bellamy did too to stare at their savior. Finn stood there, panting and wearing the good ol' Finn clothes and not the stupid school get up he's been recently wearing. He stood in his leather jacket and grey hoody under it. A black tuke and his hair loose in it's Prince Charming way.
"Finn." Clarke said in shock.
He sighed as if annoyed, "I threw that rock in the window to warn you guys."
"So that wasn't a threat?" Bellamy oh'd, and nodded. 'Behind you'. . makes sense now. He should of been more ready.
"that was a warning." corrected Finn.
Clarke shook her head, "Can we get to the more important part?! You're...you?"
He smiled smugly, "Tell me you missed me, Blue eyes."
Clarke frowned, and when Bellamy chuckled, she cracked out a smile. She had to ask though, "How? Y-you were one of them, Finn. All brainwashed and acting like a square from the 60s."
"Don't remind me." he rolled his eyes, and from behind him, Jasper walked up and slowed down.
Clarke noticed Jasper and smiled, about to tell the good news until she saw him grab a big brick by the side of the school and tried to sneak up on Finn, "JASPER NO!"
Bellamy and Finn both turned, raising an eyebrow to the big brick raised over Jaspers head who stood there in confusion.
"no?" he repeated.
"No!" Clarke said more sternly and explained, "Finn is Finn again."
"You were gonna hit me, with a brick?" Finn looked blown away and blinked, "That could of killed me!"
"Well you freaks deserve it!" Jasper yelled back but put the brick down, "wait," he paused and eyed Finn, "How are you.."
"Come inside." snickered Finn, and led them back into the Library.
They all stood around a study table, Clarke sitting in a chair with Bellamy standing behind her. Jasper sat on the desk, indian style. "So you're saying it was all an act?"
Finn was leaning back in another chair with his feet on the desk, "Hell no. They did get me." his eyes glazed over, and it looked like he may of been a little damaged from what had happened. "They got Raven first, and she lured me to some park... and they got me." he tried to shake off the chills and joked, "I thought I was gonna get laid on a swing set and turns out, crazy robots just wanted my brain. I don't know whats harder.. trying to pretend to be one of those things, act like the brady bunch.. Or losing raven."
Clarke saddened, seeing the lost distant look in his eye, "So Ravens still one of them too?"
He nodded.
"You haven't answered us." Bellamy said, "How did you get out, come back?"
"Maybe Octavia could be brought back too." Jasper chimed in, looking hopeful.
Finn sat up, dropping his feet off the desk and back onto the floor. He crossed his arms on the desk and began, "This is how they do it. They bring you to the ward, they set you up in a room to watch their brady bunch 'be happy' videos, and then they put this chip like device near your belly botton." he stood up and lifted his hoody, showing..well, abs, but also a small scar near his belly. "Mines still in. If I take it out, they'll know somethings up." he sat back down and looked at Bellamy seriously, "The only reason I snapped out of it, was because I love Raven.." he looked down at the ground numbly, "..and when I had to see her on the arm on another guy while they set me up with some random cheerleader.. I knew it wasn't right.. and the more I had to see her with someone else, I slowly came back. I think watching her also be some obedient robot also showed me something wasn't right because that's just not her."
Silence.
Finn coughed slightly, sniffing a bit and Clarkes mouth dropped. He was crying. He was trying to hide it and he did it well but she saw it.
He cracked another joke, "I also think seeing myself in the mirror wearing a foot ball jersey also helped me snap out of it."
Jasper laughed out loud and nodded.
Bellamy looked still in thought, like he was trying to gather a plan.
Finn went on, "I tried to warn you guys to stay away. I tried to be as mean as I could but still save your asses.." he taunted Bellamy mostly who snickered and nodded. That day he saw worry in his eyes, he should of thought it through more. He should of known there that Finn wasn't one of them.
"We can try to save Octavia now." Clarke said, turning to Bellamy who smirked sadly at her but nodded and put his hand on her shoulder. She looked back at Finn and asked, "Can you get us into the ward?"
Finn was staring at his bestfriend standing protectively behind his new girlfriend and snickered, "you can't believe the shock I've been trying to hide all week because of you two lately."
Clarke rolled her eyes but laughed and Bellamy smirked and then realized, "You could get us in, if you still pretend to be one of them." he said.
Finn nodded and agreed, "I can do that. I'm up for some robot ass kicking. There's a meeting this Sunday, happens whenever we get a new member, aka you." he says, looking at Clarke. "Murphy was suppose to bring you tonight to Kane. As long as he didn't see me, we're good."
"We can lock him up?" Clarke happily suggested, looking to Bellamy for back up.
He smirked and shrugged, "Why not?"
Jasper got up from the table and looked down at the ground beside him where a knocked out Murphy laid. "I'll tie rope around him in the school basement." he smirked.
They chuckled but agreed and Finn turned to Bellamy, "We might be able to get Octavia back, but you need to know her biggest weakness."
Bellamys eyebrows furrowed, clenching his jaw and trying to think of something Octavia loved, adored and couldn't resist. Suddenly, his eyes slowly drifted to Jasper. "Dammit." he cursed out loud. . he wished he didn't have to admit this, "I Think.. I think it's you, Jasper." he said, struggling with his urge to get angry.
Clarke giggled and smiled more to Jaspers look of shock. Then he smiled doopily and Finn patted his back, "Ready to go save the damsel in distress?"
"Hell ya." Jasper declared happily.
