Epilogue

A couple of months later

"A little to the left…almost there…that's it," Bellamy said as the few of the kids placed the last log that completed the roof of the fifteenth cabin that has been made in the newly formed or rather reformed the 100 Camp. "Okay, guys time for a break. You deserved it, and for those of you who sustained injuries, minor or not, please go to Clarke to check it out. God knows what will happen when she hears that I haven't sent you there already, even for something insignificant."

The kids responded by grinning and laughing between themselves before they scattered in different directions to do whatever chore they had to do or take his advice and take a break, meanwhile he shook his head by the kids silliness and decided to give Clarke a visit. So he began walking in the direction of medical tent, where he knew Clarke would be since she was pretty much always there during the day or at least when she wasn't on his ass about his decisions and fighting him with tooth and nail about it.

As soon as they finally found the perfect place to set camp they had not wasted time in building the territory and cabins to live in, instead of living on possible habituated territories and living on tents that were bound to break sooner or later. And neither he nor Clarke was willing to take the risk of either, so the plans were made and executed it and things seemed to be working for now. There was no treaty between them and the Grounders, which was no wonder considering what had happened with the Grounders and how they had sold out Clarke and the others and almost gotten them killed because of it. They haven't seen or heard from Lexa and the other Grounders, which was totally fine by him, but they had made a unvoiced agreement that the two clans were not to contact or interrupt in each others business. And after hearing Lincoln what he was sending as a message to leave the delinquents alone as well as a threat to what would happened to them if they did, Bellamy was actually more than glad that the man was on their side.

However they did managed to maintain a civil relationship with the other camp that consisted the people from the camp was ironically named Camp Jaha, after the former Chancellor who was at the moment just missing or presumed dead, either way he and the kids didn't care either way what had happened to the man after everything that had led to this point, and was currently led by Abby and Marcus in the a similar manner as they had done on the Ark. Again, he and the others didn't really care or try and tell the Arkians how to lead their camp anymore since they knew that they wouldn't listen anyway, but still they continued to build and maintain relationship between the two camps by doing trading supplies and among other things.

Bellamy walked past the giant campfire that was located in the middle of the camp and a few tents before he stopped in front of the medical tent, which was bigger than the rest, and entered and expected to find his princess hovering over a injured kid like a mother hen. However strangely enough she wasn't there instead he found his sister and Lincoln preparing and bagging medical herbs that Clarke would use for healing.

"Hey Bell," Octavia greeted him, smiling with this warm and happy smile he had never seen on her face when they lived back on the Ark. His sister had found true happiness here on the ground, with finding her own freedom and independence as well as her close friendship with Clarke and her relationship with Lincoln. Speaking of Lincoln, the man he found himself to tolerate and actually starting to grow friendly with, had asked him a couple of days ago for his blessing to marry Octavia. Bellamy had been shocked and almost wanted to say no, but seeing as the Grounder had a positive influence and made his sister happy he gave the man his blessing. And it didn't take long before his sister was engaged and was to be married in a couple of months when the camp was even more stable and more equipped to settle down.

"Hello, O," Bellamy replied in the same manner before he asked, "Where is Clarke? I can't see her here and I didn't meet her on my way over her."

Lincoln gave him a small smile and answered, "She said she was going to clean up since she was completely covered in sweat and blood and needed to wash it off in the nearby lake."

Bellamy's mood turned to a frown and wanted nothing more then to yell, kick or punch something to release his frustration. He had told Clarke many times before that she wasn't supposed to leave the camp without having someone with her, since they weren't sure how safe and how much they could trust the peace they were currently having right now, but it seemed his girlfriend was doing everything she could to make a point that she wasn't weak and could handle herself by doing things like this.

So he scoffed before he made quick goodbyes with Octavia and Lincoln before he left to find his damn princess and bring her back home.

And as he made his way through the camp and towards the gates, he met up with several of the kids along the way. Jasper, Maya, Miller and Monty were hanging out by the campfire, talking about something that caused them all to smile and laugh. And when they saw him they acknowledged him by nodding their head or waving their hands before returning back to their conversation. It took a while for the other kids to accept Maya, but she proved to be a great asset to the camp as well as for Jasper, she helped him over come his PTSD that he managed to obtain here on the ground. Meanwhile Monty and Miller had grown closer and established a great friendship between one another, though it seem to him that it was escalating to something more based on how close they were being with each other.

He also met Raven on the way, but she was currently too busy fixing something to acknowledge or greet him. After the whole thing went down with the Mountain Men, she and Finn split up due to different point of view regarding pretty much everything. The whole decision had been tough on both of them, especially considering their history, but they weren't the same people anymore and the relationship between them was no longer the same. So Finn ended up staying back at Camp Jaha, meanwhile she joined the other delinquents and was currently going through a love/hate relationship with a engineer, Wick, who had joined their camp shortly after they established their territory. And besides Raven seemed a lot more happier now than what she did when she was still seeing the Spacewalker, and if he had to be honest he was actually glad that Finn was gone. It only meant that he had one less person who would annoy and disagree with him on a daily basis.

Bellamy shook his head, realizing that he was losing his focus on where he was going, so he sighed heavily before he walked out of the gates, informing the guards of where and why he was going, and walked into to the forest to find his dear princess.

Clarke sighed and breathed out in comfort and relief. The water was as expected ice cold, but for one thing she was pretty used to taking cold baths. And besides it was whole lot better than to stink of dirt and blood anyways. Then there was also the thing that taking a bath in the lake gave her opportunity to some peace and alone time, which was pretty much needed since it was rare for her or Bellamy to have that for a long time period due to their responsibility of the camp.

Not that she complained or hated the fact, for the matter of fact it was the exact opposite. She loved the kids and the camp and wouldn't trade them for anything in the world. And she certainly did not regret leaving Camp Jaha and her mother behind to start something on her own with Bellamy and the others. It had taken some time to accept her mother back in her life, old scars and hurt made it almost impossible for her to even be around her, let alone talk to her. However though she couldn't forgive her mother for the choices she made that resulted in her father's death and her banishment to the ground, she realized that everyone had done things they aren't proud of and regret including her, so she could at least be civil with her mother. It was a slow process, and they disagreed about pretty much everything, but she think she heard somewhere that 'Rome wasn't built in a day' and at least it was a start to reestablish the mother-daughter relationship.

After washing off all the dirt and blood and in the process getting lost in her own thoughts, Clarke decided that she had been in the water long enough and besides it was only a matter of time before Bellamy would find out she was gone and would be tracking her down. So she got out of the water and quickly dried herself before she took on her clothes, but as she did that the sound of twigs snapping caught her attention. And in one quick and determined movement she retrieved her knife that she usually hid in her boot and threw it as hard and fast as she could. When the knife pierced and stuck into the tree it was shortly followed by a howl of pain as she turned around and saw Bellamy on the ground touching his ear as a small trail of blood was streaming down from it.

"Damn it, Clarke," Bellamy sneered. She ignored him as she went to his side and leaned next to him to check the wound. Apparently it wasn't too serious, she had only nicked the edge of his ear. "Why is it that every time we met in the forest, you always seem to attack me with your knife?"

She shrugged her shoulders, not wanting to admit that he did have a point, but simply stated, "You always happen to try and sneak up on me, that's why. And besides you always try and make a point that I should go alone, but here I am proving I can handle myself just fine."

This was a one of the never-ending discussions they had between themselves, one of those that they never seemed to agree at all on, but some way or the other reached the solution that they would bitch about it and then forget about and move on. It worked out fine usually, even though they still fought about many things like camp decisions, withholding information or going behind each others back, but in the end they made up and forgave one another. Their relationship was strong and beautiful, but that didn't mean it wasn't difficult at times. But still they loved each other too much to let the other one go and after everything they have been through together, they didn't want to let go either.

Bellamy stood up on his feet, deciding to end the argument and instead pulled her closer to him and leaned in to give her a quick kiss on the lips. She pouted when he pulled away, to which he chuckled over and whispered softly in to her ear, "Ready to go home, Princess?"

Clarke smiled as she nodded her head before she stood on her toes to kiss him. The kiss was strong and gentle, which made him wrap his arms around her waist while hers were around his neck. They kissed for a while, not really wanting to end their make-out session, but they both knew that it wouldn't take long before one of the kids would come to retrieve them since there was a problem or injuries they needed to look at. So when they pulled apart, they began walking back to the camp while holding hands like a lovey-dovey couple. During the entire walk back to the camp, the smiles between them didn't disappear from their faces. They were happy, she was happy and after a year being abandoned and alone she had finally found somewhere she belonged, together with Bellamy, Octavia, Lincoln and the other delinquents.

That's it. The end of the story, hope you guys like it. Thank you all for the love and support of this story, I have really been enjoying writing this story and receiving your reviews, favorite and/or followings. So please continue doing so :D

I decided against writing an entirely fluffy ending, even though I love them personally very much. I thought such ending didn't fit the story very well, so I tried to mellow it down and make it more real than the whole marriage/baby endings.

I have already new ideas for my next the 100 story, with of course Bellarke as the main couple, but I want to hear what kind of story you want first. Its between a new AU story, which where everything will be twisted around with the delinquents having powers while elements from the original storyline will come in, or a Modern AU story. I will not reveal what each of them is about right now, but I would love to hear your opinions. So either review or PM me about what you want and I will take it to a consideration.

School is about to start, so I wouldn't know when I will be writing the new story especially since I have other stories to work on as well, but I will just have to see your response to make a decision. I will, however, Not post my releasing of my new story on this book, since this is one story and I would advertise another story when you came to read this one. So please keep your eyes out for my new story instead, because whatever you chose I think you will like it very much.
