HAHA guess you'll have to find out guys.
Enjoy, and please dont shoot me ;)
Octavia's POV
I woke up the moment Aurora tried to crawl into bed with me, slapping my arm from the ground, whining because she couldn't crawl up on her own. I sighed before rolling over and looking at the clock, 7:30.
"Rory it's early" I mumbled and she huffed before trying to climb up on her own again. It was way too early, and I needed all the rest I could get before today's events took place.
"Up pleaseeeeee" the toddler begged and I complied, quickly grabbing her hips and lifting her on to the bed with me. As soon as her little body was on my bed and she had wiggled under my covers and curled into my side, she was out like a light again.
She had a bad habit of waking up in the middle of the night and wanting to crawl into bed with me. A habit that started a couple months ago when she would see me sneaking out of out room and making my way to Clarke's. I had a bad habit of trying to sleep with her when I had nightmares, and soon enough Aurora caught on, only she didn't want to go curl up with her mom, she wanted to curl up with me.
After a few minutes of trying to get comfortable again with her beside me, I succumbed back into the darkness as well.
"Tavy, wakey wakey" a tiny voice whispered.
"Tavy, help" it said again and I sighed, opening my eyes and trying to focus on the three numbers. 8:56. I sat up to see Aurora sitting at the end of my bed now, smiling wide.
"What do you need help with" I groaned and her lips twisted downwards, she furrowed her brow and crossed her tiny arms. A mad Aurora was quite possibly the cutest thing in the world.
"Dressed" she half yelled and I giggle, god she was so frustrated. I threw my blanket off of me and towards her, coving her fully and almost knocking her off of the bed before throwing my legs over the edge and standing up to stretch.
I walked to the end of the bed, uncovering Rory who was now full of smiles and picked her up, swinging her over my shoulder as she let out a loud giggle and walked to the closet, plopping her down at my feet before opening the sliding doors.
"Pick something nice, we have a visitor coming today" I said with a smile and he eyes went wide before she stepped inside, disappearing into a sea of clothing. I grabbed myself a pair of denim shorts and a strappy tank top before stepping away and waiting for Aurora to submerge again.
"Look Tavy!" she shrieked as she stumbled out and handed me her denim overalls and a plain white tee, I couldn't help but smile.
"I'm going to get dressed, think you can do the same all by yourself munchkin?" I asked as I pinched her cheek and she nodded before gripping her pajama top and tearing it off.
"Aurora!" I yelled before bursting into a chuckle and she giggled before staring at her shirt and trying to figure it out. I took it as an opportunity to slip away momentarily, hiding behind the privacy screen and getting myself changed. When I stepped out again, she had managed to pull her overalls up to her waist, but her shirt was not cooperating, she had managed to shove her head through and arm hole and sat on the floor huffing.
"Help" she whispered and I stifled back a laugh before walking over to her. I pulled the shirt off of her and helped her put it on right before fixing her overalls and emerging, ready to conquer anything.
Aurora and I walked towards the living room, hand in hand, to find the boys fighting over the remote on the couch and Clarke standing in the kitchen. As soon as Rory had spotted the boys, she let go of my hand and ran over, jumping on to Lincoln and making herself comfortable in his lap.
"Morning Clarkey!" I squeaked and her head shot up, smiling as she made her way over to me.
"G'morning O" she said as she wrapped her arms around me, pulling me into a tight hug, Clarke's good morning hugs were one of the many things I loved about her, she always gave the world's best hugs.
"Your niece is a pain in the butt, is three the age in which you stop loving your mother?" she whispered into my hair and I chuckled.
"You never stop, you just become less dependent" I replied as I pulled out of her embrace and winked at her.
"What time's Aunty Rey coming over?" I asked.
"She should be here any minute" she replied, smiling at me before making her way back to the kitchen and I walked over to plop myself down on the couch next to Jasper, it was going to be a long day.
Clarke's POV
I had just finished cooking breakfast when there was a knock at the door and within seconds Raven and Wick immerged carrying two trays of drinks from our favorite café.
"My savior" I groaned as Raven made her way into the kitchen, leaving Octavia to introduce Wick to her friends for the first time. I pulled out eight plates and Raven grabbed the cutlery before placing a hand on my shoulder.
"You're stress cooking Clarke" she mumbled and I couldn't help but sigh, Raven did this thing were everything she said was correct, like all the time.
I placed one pancake on each plate, followed by two strips of bacon, two sausages, and a spoonful of scrambled eggs. I placed a bunch of freshly cut berries in a big bowl as well, knowing that a responsible mom would give her kids fruit.
"Lincoln, Jas, Monty, you're up first!" I half yelled and the three boys rushed in, each saying thanks before grabbing a plate and their frappe before walking to the table, and that's when problem number one arose.
"Uh Clarke, there's only four chairs" Jasper stated and I rolled my eyes.
"I guess the adults will have to sit on the floor" he quipped and I threw a blueberry at him, earning a laugh from Monty and Lincoln.
"I will bend the rules this one time, you can eat on the couch, but stain it and there will be consequences gentlemen!" I stated and they all giggled.
Octavia and Wick were busy gossiping on one corner of the couch, sipping on their drinks, Aurora was running around, burning off all of her built up energy and Raven was standing beside me shaking her head.
"Shall we feed the beasts?" she asked and I chuckled, almost choking on a strawberry I had shoved in my mouth.
"Yes" I said before grabbing Aurora's plate and sippy cup, along with the bowl of fruit. Raven grabbed Wick and Octavia's and followed me to the living room. I placed the bowl on the coffee table, shooting daggers at everyone in an attempt to convey that if they complained I'd be pissed.
Jasper and Monty sighed, but Lincoln's face lit up.
"Eat them or no pizza for dinner" I said sternly and the entire apartment cheered.
"Will do" the three boys said in sync before reaching the bowl and grabbing a few pieces of fruit and I shook my head. I was convinced I had this parenting thing down pat, although two of the kids I took care of were only temporary and one was new, it was nice to have a big gathering like this everyone once in a while, and by once in a while I meant every other weekend.
Octavia had no family of her own, she deserved this, being surrounded by people who adore her, and when my mother found out I was very pregnant and very single, she completely cut all ties with me and considering my father had died two years before everything went down, I had no family of my own either, aside from the girls, Rey and Wick.
I smiled to myself, wallowing in all I had accomplished over the past four years before walking over to kneel beside Aurora's bean bag chair.
"Come here little missy" I said as I looked at the toddler who couldn't seem to stay in one place for more than five seconds.
"Mammmaaaa!" she said, quickly running over and jumping on to me. I couldn't help but laugh at her as I kissed her cheek before she sat in the chair. I handed her a plate and her face lit up.
"Sticky hands stay off the chair and couch, m'kay?" I asked, and she nodded before picking her pancake pieces up with her bare hands and stuffing them into her mouth.
"Clarke, go get dressed, I got this" Raven said as she kicked my butt while walking by. I looked down to see that in all the chaos of this morning, I had forgotten to change out of my pj's.
"Will do" I mumbled, and before I knew it I was in my room, trying to compose myself; today was going to be hell, and hell came in the form of Bellamy Blake.
After getting dressed and throwing on a subtle amount of makeup, I chuckled while glancing at my phone. Raven had gotten everyone to pose for a photo on the couch, captioning the picture with 'Breakfast with my un-biological spawns and extended family, LOVE YOU TO PIECES 3'; I was more than thankful to know that Raven looked at us like her family as well.
I made my way back to the living room to find a surprisingly quiet Octavia, Wick sat beside her, Lincoln on the bean bag chair behind Aurora who was giggling in her chair, still working on her pancake pieces. Monty, Jasper and Raven had disappeared which concerned me.
"Look mom, gooooooey!" Aurora yelled as she hopped off the bean bag and ran towards me once I had been spotted, clapping her syrup covered hands together. I scooped her up quickly, dodging syrup covered hands, before trying to make my way to the kitchen. Trying being the key word, I could hear voices by the door, and everything clicked, Bellamy was here.
Bellamy's POV
"Let me in" I growled, staring Raven dead in the eye and she chuckled, she was fucking laughing at me!
"Go float yourself, Blake" she spit back instantly and my blood boiled.
"Clarke is the one who said this was okay, I don't even know why you're here" I retorted, trying to calm myself down and the boy with the goggles on his head pushed past Raven.
"We know what you did, and it's not fair, not fair at all!" he half yelled at me and my heart dropped. Did they honestly know what happened all those years ago?
"Yeah, well I bet you don't know my side" I muttered and it seemed like the teen grew even angrier.
"YOU HURT MY BEST FRIEND, AND THAT IS ALL THAT MATTERS BUDDY!" he yelled and Asian boy behind him placed an arm on his shoulder as if he was trying to calm him down, Raven smirked, and I had no clue what to do.
I opened my mouth to speak, but I stopped when Clarke turned the corner, tiny girl on her hip, biting her lip and trying to suppress a smile. I had never been more in love with anyone then I was with Clarke, especially when I saw her, icy blue orbs shining, skin glowing, and my daughter on her hip.
"Back off Calvary" she said sternly and the two boy's heads whipped around, dropping as they saw Clarke.
"Sorry Clarke" they said in unison as they tried to walk pass her and the toddler giggled.
"Jaspy got in twouble!" she said through her tiny laughs and Clarke smiled down at her before looking up at me.
"Raven, let him in" she said and before I knew it she was gone again. Raven huffed and crossed her arms before complying, stepping aside and allowing me entry to her apartment.
Walking in, I realized the place was bigger than I had thought, there was a huge open concept living room staring me in the face, Octavia was sitting on the couch, with two other unknown guys.
"Hey O" I said softly and she turned around, offering me half a smile before standing up.
"Hell Bells" she mumbled, walking over to me and giving me half a hug. My heart dropped, so far nothing was going to way I wanted it to.
"Mamma enough!" someone yelled from behind us, and Octavia's head shot up, I followed her eyes over to kitchen to see that Clarke had Aurora on the kitchen counter and was attempting to wash her face and hands.
"Rory stop being a pain" Octavia said sweetly before walking over to the kitchen.
"Tavy, I'm sticky!" the little girl said and I couldn't help but laugh as I watched the three. Octavia had taken over wiping down her hands and Clarke tackled her face, the two working in perfect harmony.
"Stop staring Bellamy its creepy" Raven quipped, pulling me out of my thoughts and I internally groaned.
"Why are you even here, Reyes?" I shot back almost instantly.
"Because Clarke didn't want to be here while you were, but when Octavia decided her friends were coming over last night and things changed, but let's just say I wasn't going to NOT be here when you decided to show your face four years later" she said through gritted teeth, and I must admit that the thought of Clarke not wanting to be around stung, deep down, I loved her more than anything still. But the fact that the three teens had spent the night here made me mad, where the fuck were three boys sleeping in this place, and why the fuck did Clarke allow it.
"You're telling me that those three" I shot daggers at the boys on the couch,
"Spent the night here, with my fucking sister and daughter in the house?" I half yelled and a something shattered in the kitchen.
"SWEAR JAR!" Aurora chirped, clapping her hands as she ran freely around the apartment now that she was all cleaned up.
"Bellamy Blake, enough" Clarke half yelled and I clenched my fists.
"No Clarke, it's not enough. What the fuck where you thinking, allowing three teenage boys to spend the night in this place. Where did they even sleep? Or have you resorted to running around with random guys again like you did after Finn left you?" I spit and I immediately regretting it. I was hitting her where it hurt, and that was clear by the expression on her face. Red began creeping up her neck, tears pooled in her eyes, and the apartment was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
"Oh fuck off" Raven said silently.
"Where do you get off being such a fucking dick?" the tan, muscular kid growled.
"So he is a douche" when of the other teens muttered, but I was focused solely on Clarke.
"Are you forgetting that you were one of those men? YOU BELLAMY, you were one of those guys, you were supposed to be my best friend and then we slept together, hell we dated for years after the Finn incident, and then YOU up and left just like him. Clearly I have a type" she muttered before raising a hand and letting it connect with my face.
Octavia gasped, Aurora cried, and everyone else stayed silent.
"Rory come here, everyone else, guest room" she said softly after a moment and they all complied.
"Mamma scared" the little girl whispered as she made her way to Clarke, hiding behind her leg. Clarke let a single tear slip down her cheek before she leant over and picked her up. Fear was evident on the toddlers face, tears forming in her eyes.
"No reason to be sweetie pie, I'm sorry mommy raised her voice" Clarke cooed and the little girl nuzzled into her neck, hiding from me.
"Clarke I'm-"
"Don't, I knew we were going to have a blow out at some point" she muttered.
"Clarke" she cut me off again.
"Bellamy, please, just stop" she pleaded and that was it, my heart was in a million pieces. I didn't realize I was crying until my vision began to blur, and reaching up to wipe my eyes, I could feel the dampness on my cheek which meant I had been for a while. I didn't know what to do, there stood the love of my life, crying with our daughter in her arms, a toddler I hadn't gotten the chance to watch grow up, all for selfish reasons. My knees grew weak and my vision even blurrier; this was my entire god damn fault.
Before I could catch on to what was happened, I made my way to the ground, hands covering my face as the tears left my eyes. I heard footsteps walk away from me and I knew that was it, I had messed up for good.
That is until the footsteps returned and someone knelt in front of me, a single sob escaping their lips before I felt a hand on my shoulder. I looked up to see a blur of blonde, and I let a sob escape my chest as well, it was light a slight weight had been lifted from my shoulders.
"Clarke" I croaked, and she pulled me into her chest.
"Oh Bell" she cried, and before I knew it we were in each other's warm embrace, both of us doing our best to keep it together, to stay strong, as yet again we found home in each others arms.
I had to put some type of Bellarke moment in there, it only seemed right.
Before you hate me, just remember emotions are running high and it may not last long ;)
Anyways, prepare yourselves for part 2, it will be more intense than the first part.
I mean family dinner time, what could go wrong?
(Also emotions and the hug explained)
