Once the commotion settled down and Clarke had a moment of free time alone she went in search of Bellamy. She found him sitting at a table in Mount Weather. She can't believe that her people are using it as some sort of facility. She sat next to him on the bench. he was eating the typical red apple. He continued to eat even though she was right next to him. he waited for her to talk.
"I'm sorry," Clarke said.
Bellamy stopped eating. He turned his head in her direction. "Clarke don't apologize. You never need to apologize with me."
Clarke smiled and so did Bellamy. "Oh really," she said to test him. She grabbed his apple and took a bite from the side he hadn't bit into yet. "Mmmh, delicious." Clarke handed Bellamy his apple back and made a face like it was the best apple in the world. She smiled at him in a joking manor.
Bellamy shrugged. He held the apple with his by the endpoints right in front of his face. "Now look you wasted this perfectly good apple. What am I supposed to eat now." Bellamy teased. The two sat down and joked for a while. It wasn't like old times. They both finally felt safe.
Clarke moved throughout Arkadia. She toured the place and found a place for her to live. It was next to this girl named Emily. She was probably 14. She was blonde and had quite petite. Clarke was setting up her living arrangements as the girl was standing there watching. Eventually Clarke spoke, "Hi, everything alright?"
"Clarke Griffin," Emily said. Clarke nodded to verify that was her name. "Wow you're a legend. Saving all those kids." Clarke smiled at the kid. "My friend Charlotte was on the drop shift with you. Monte told she didn't make it but he said you were there for her." Clarke remembered Charlotte killing Wells. She remembered hiding her out only for her to walk off a cliff.
"Yeah, she was a sweetheart." Clarke said not to hurt Emily.
"Yeah, anyway you're my hero and i just wanted to say hi," Emily walked away and as she did Octavia approached Clarke.
"Hey," said Octavia.
"Whats up?" Clarke asked. She wiped off her knees and got up.
"Clarke, I'm glad you're back but please don't leave again." Clarke was about to speak but Octavia continued anyway. "You hurt so many people, I never seen Bellamy so dumbfounded like he was betrayed. Clarke you hurt him, you hurt me, you hurt your mom, and monte, and I know it doesn't seem like it but you even hurt Jasper. Clarke you can't run away again. If you do, please don't come back."
Octavia's words shocked Clarke but yet at the same time she knew what she said was true. "I'm not leaving again. Not this time," Clarke responded.
Octavia got down and said, "Well in that case let me help you set up." Clarke got down as well and the two of them worked on Clarke's space.
