RP: The 100: Gravitational Pull: randomname98766789 and greenandgold

Bellamy nodded his head while sliding his hands down the small of her back and onto her ass. He squeezed her flesh firmly and pushed upwards, forcing her hips against his own in a rapid, forceful burst of force. He slammed his thick cock inside of her tight, wet pussy. He did not take it slow. He started using all of his lower body strength and power, forcing himself deeper inside of Clarke than before. The tip of his cock smashed into her cervix and found her sweet spot, pounding into that spot over and over again as he kissed her passionately, gripping her rear end firmly, the tent basically shaking and rattling now but that did not matter as Bellamy was not holding back.

----------

Lincoln smiled softly, thankful that Octavia felt that way. “That’s good. Never meeting you would have been the worst thing in my life, too.” He admitted, now kissing her gently on the lips before pulling back and resting their foreheads together. “I’ve never been this happy before. I’ve hardly been happy at all until I met you.” He admitted, realizing that going through all that torture and pain when he was captured had to be worth it all just to be with Octavia. And it was definitely worth it.
 
Much time had passed since she and the rest of the 100 had been sent back here to find out if Earth was livable again. They had been back on the ground for over a year. Clarke knew this by the changing of colors of the leaves, and because she marked down every day on a cave near the drop ship. The adults had made it to Earth and with them, problems with the Grounders had escalated dramatically. There were guards stationed all around Arkadia, men, women, and some of the 100, armed with guns to shoot at anything that moved outside
of the walls. Their truce had been broken when one of the first things the adults had done, was kill a village of Grounders a few miles away from the drop ship, in their quest to set
up Arkadia. Clarke had told Octavia to take Lincoln and run, and they had, but thankfully they hadn't gone far. She knew where they were and kept in touch with the other girl once
a day every 3 days.

Clarke hadn't told Bellamy where Octavia and Lincoln were, for his safety, and theirs. All she told him was that she knew they were safe, and away from the adults who would kill Lincoln. A few days ago, Clarke had seen the signal that she, Octavia and Lincoln had worked out to communicate with each other without anyone knowing. She had smuggled food, medical supplies and weapons out of camp at Octavia's request. Unfortunately, Kane had found out and now Clarke had to pay the price, but she didn't care. Kane and Byrne each had hold
of one of her arms as they brought her out of the Ark. They were about to tie her to the trees for a shock lashing. Her breath caught when Bellamy's voice rang out in the crowd
as he confessed to her crimes.

She took a shaky breath as she listened to Byrne call out her crimes and dole out the punishment to Bellamy. "Bellamy Blake has admitted to aiding and abetting known criminals, theft of food, theft of medical supplies, and theft of weapons. Under the law set forth in the Exodus Charter of The Ark, he's been sentenced to 100 lashes."

Clarke saw Byrne walk up behind Bellamy and tear his shirt. A loud scream left Bellamy's lips when Byrne pressed the baton against his back. The sound made something inside her shatter at his pain. Kane gave the order again and again, and Clarke locked eyes with Bellamy, trying to give him strength as each time Byrne did it. Eventually, the pain was so bad
that Bellamy passed out.

<><><><><>

Octavia could hear her brother's screams and knew what Kane and Byrne were doing to him. Her breath hitched in her throat, and tears streamed down her cheeks, every time Bellamy screamed. "Bellamy and Clarke will never forgive me for this," she whispered as they watched from a mile away, as Byrne shock lashed Bellamy until he passed out. And even then they continued until Octavia had counted 100 lashes.
 
The next year had been chaotic. More Grounder attacks, dealing with Mount Weather, and even dealing with their own people was not the best thing. The adults were not so easy to deal with as they were still acting strict as ever. That was not ideal but they lived. However, not everything was upsetting. Not everything was sad. Bellamy and Clarke had fallen deeper in love than anyone could have imagined. Every day, they kissed, touched, and spent time together. Bellamy had never been unfaithful to Clarke. He had never even looked at another girl other than her. He would do anything for her and he just proved it.

That was why he decided to believe Clarke and trust her when she said that Octavia and Lincoln were alright and safe. He had no idea she stole medical supplies, weapons, and food for the pair. When Clarke was captured, Bellamy realized what was happening. He stepped up and took responsibility for what happened. Every single ounce of pain was unbearable but that did not matter. It was worth it if it meant Clarke was going to be safe. Now, Bellamy did not know if it was going to kill him or not, but he was going to take everything.

The last thing before passing out he saw was Clarke’s face and that gave him strength to hold on. After all the lashings, Abby and Jackson helped Clarke get Bellamy into the medical ward. Abby did not like this either, she thought they should not give these punishments but it was not up to her. Plus, she had learned how much Bellamy meant to her daughter so they got Bellamy into the medical station and placed him onto his stomach on a table and stripped away the rest of his torn shirt to start working on those nasty wounds of his. “Clarke, you don’t have to be in here if you don’t want.” She offered to her daughter, unsure if she’d want to see this or not.


Lincoln held Octavia and tried to convince her otherwise. “Don’t say that. They will understand. He’s going to be okay.” He murmured and kissed her again, They turned away and kept walking but heard some footsteps around the woods. He looked both ways and finally found some movement in the grass. He could not tell from what clan this attacker was from, but it was clear that he and the three others behind him were out for blood.

On pure instinct, Lincoln shoved Octavia onto the ground to protect her. He removed his sword and started finding, thrusting his sword into the neck of the first Grounder and kicking him away. The fighting ensued and Lincoln took down three of the four Grounders before the fourth one got Lincoln from behind and shoved a sword through his back and into his chest, sending him onto the ground. That grounder turned to Octavia with an evil smirk, raising his sword to attack. However, in one last act of defiance, Lincoln stood up to protect the love of his life and sunk his sword into this other Grounder’s back. After doing this, Lincoln coughed up some blood and looked to Octavia before dropping to his knees, feeling the life being sucked out of him.
 
"The hell I don't have to be in here!" Clarke snapped at her mother. "I'm not leaving him," she said, a mix of anger, sadness, and pain in her eyes. "Stop trying to protect me and just tell me how to help him." She said, unable to take her eyes off of an unconscious Bellamy. His back was a complete mess, and Clarke felt tears drip down her cheeks as she grabbed water and bandages, and began to help her mother and Jackson take care of him. Her hands on Bellamy's back were soft, gentle touches. She jumped several minutes later, startled, when an enraged and pained scream sounded from a few miles away. The sound wasn't from camp, and Clarke knew then that it was Octavia. The scream turned into two, then three, and then kept going. It sounded like a wounded animal, and it chilled her to her bones. "Octavia," she whispered.

<><><><><><><>

"I did this to them," Octavia said as she leaned into Lincoln's arms. He kissed her, and she tightened her grip on him, kissing him again. They turned and started to leave when
they heard footsteps. They both checked the area and saw some movement. "Lincoln, no!" She said when he pushed her to the ground. Octavia knew that he wanted to protect
her. She drew her sword as well, but it was too late. Lincoln had taken out 3 of their 4 attackers, when the 4th one shoved a sword through Lincoln's back and into his chest. The
last Grounder turned to her with a smirk and was about to attack her, when Lincoln stood up and stabbed the remaining Grounder.

She dropped her own sword and ran to Lincoln as he coughed up blood, fell to his knees and then the ground, and quit moving. "NO!!!!! LINCOLN!!!!" The screams ripped from Octavia's throat as she cradled his body in her arms. She slid her fingers over his eyes, closing them. A few moments later, she carefully moved his body out of sight hidden in a well blocked cave, before going to find Nyko, Lincoln's best friend. Lincoln's body was returned to his people. A ceremony was held and his body was given a warrior's funeral and burned, and her heart ached.

Octavia was lucky enough to be welcomed into Lincoln's clan and spent the next several months with them. Learning more of their language and ways. She had stopped her weekly contact with Clarke, the day following Lincoln's death. Nyko and Indra were the only people that Octavia saw daily. She rarely ventured out of what used to be Lincoln's home. It was
hard to look at his friends and see their pain over losing him. Octavia could barely deal with her own pain. She missed Lincoln, her brother, and her friends and had decided to take
Indra up on her offer to learn how to fight. Things got a little tense when it became obvious that Octavia was pregnant, but she refused to let fear control her and along with Nyko
and Indra, continued to learn how to fight and learned lessons in their way of first aid.

Months passed and Octavia bonded with Lincoln's clan more and more. She had become good friend's with Indra and Nyko, and once the baby had been born, promised to leave their village at the request of Nyko. Other clans had become aware of Lincoln's death and of who she was to him and the baby, so she asked Nyko and Indra to escort her back to Arkadia. They planned to stop a mile away, so that they could return to the village without risking them.

They got to the stopping point and she got out of the cart that Nyko had been pulling her and her daughter in. She handed her daughter, Laqueta, to Nyko to hold, as she told Indra goodbye. Then Octavia told Nyko goodbye and grabbed her daughter and their things, and started the mile walk to Arkadia. Once she arrived at the gate, Octavia stood there with
Lincoln's sword on her back, a bag over her shoulder and her daughter in her arms. Her face and the rest of her body contained many scars from training and from battle over the
last several months, when she lived in Lincoln's village and fought to protect it. The gate opened and several guard's ran at her, more than a dozen gun's trained on her. "I wanna
talk to Kane and Bellamy."
 
It honestly took Bellamy near an entire month to recover from the shock-lashing completely. During that time, he helped with Mount Weather, defeating them once and for all. Skaikru had bonded together with Trikru to take down Mount Weather and end the Mountain Men’s reign. They no longer had to worry about acid fog but both Bellamy Blake and Clarke Griffin had burdens to carry. Together, they pulled the lever that irradiated everyone, innocent and guilty, from Mount Weather’s existence. Bellamy did not allow Clarke to pull that lever alone. They were a team and he made sure that she knew that.

Once that happened, they returned to Arkadia victorious but guilt-laden. At first, Clarke did not want to return but Bellamy refused to let her go alone. This probably had brought them closer together than anything they have dealt with before. Bellamy was completely and utterly in love with this girl. They did whatever they needed to save their people. Yes, it meant killing innocent lives and that was tough, but they had no choice because they all would have died anyways. At the end of the day, they still had one another and that was enough. The first few days after the event was especially hard.

However, it had been a couple months since the incident and slowly, they were getting better. They woke up each morning in one another’s arms. They had mind-blowing sex together all the time. They made sure to say “I love you” multiple times each day and they hardly spent a second away from each other. If Clarke started having doubts about herself, Bellamy helped clear those doubts and vice versa. This could have taken a huge toll on both of them, more than it already had, but since they were together and used each other for strength, everything was more bearable.

It was another morning in Arkadia and things were still quiet. Bellamy woke up first before Clarke like he always did, deciding to just lay in the bed. When Clarke woke up, he greeted her with a kiss just like he did every morning. They cuddled for a few minutes together underneath the sheets, their nude bodies a reminder of what fun they had last night. Now with their own rooms together rinside the ship, living was much more comfortable than when it was on the ground inside a tent. Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. It was Abby’s mother. However, she did not want to speak to Clarke. She was here for Bellamy.

Since everything happened, Kane had taken over as Chancellor since Jaha was presumed dead but even after his return, Marcus kept reign and was doing a fine job, really. “Chancellor Kane wants to see you, Bellamy. It’s important.” She spoke through the door, not telling him about Octavia. With that, Bellamy called out he would be there shortly so he rolled off the side of the bed after giving Clarke one more kiss on the lips.

“I’ll be back as soon as I can.” He murmured, squeezing her hand one more time before standing from the bed and finding some clothing to wear. At this point, they had been together for practically one year and six months but it was hard to keep track of exact days. After all they went through, it felt like they had been together a lifetime and he was sure that nothing could tear them apart. The male dressed in a pair of boxers, jeans, and a black, torn t-shirt. The scars from the shock lashing months ago were still visible but a reminder of what he would do for Clarke. Bellamy no longer held animosity towards Kane for this.

After dressing, Bellamy left the room and went through the ship to find the Chancellor’s quarters. He had not had the chance to shower or anything since last night so he probably did not smell that great, but who really cared now? Besides, showers were not so easy to come by anymore honestly. When he entered the room only Kane and someone else was inside. He could not see them for certain but after he stepped a few inches closer, he saw her.

“Octavia…” He breathed out, almost feeling choked up, walking right towards her and wrapping her in his arms. He saw the baby but that was not of his concern right now. He was just focused on his sister. “You’re okay…?” He commented and asked at the same time, not having heard much. The only thing he knew for sure was that Lincoln died protecting her and she went into his old village.
 
Octavia hugged her brother back tightly. "I'm okay. And, I'm sorry," she whispered in his ear. Sorry that he had been tortured for her, sorry that she had essentially abandoned him, even if it had been to protect him and her daughter. "I love you, Bell. I've missed you so much." The pain she had kept bottled up since Lincoln's death finally appeared in the form of tears as she hugged her brother who she hadn't seen in a long time. Once the hug ended, Octavia wiped her eyes and took her daughter back into her arms. Meeting Bellamy's eyes she told him, "This is my daughter, Laqueta. Lincoln died protecting us."

More tears fell, but again, she wiped them away. After explaining who Laqueta was, she turned to Kane. "I have a message from the Trikru clan. They and their allies are willing to form an alliance with Arkadia. Indra is willing to meet with you next week and hammer out an agreement that will satisfy everyone. She has also agreed to get her men to stop attacking members of Arkadia who go past the border. Anyone found on their side of the border will be escorted back to Arkadia. If they resist and refuse to leave, only then will lethal force
be taken."
 
The Chancellor truly wanted peace so he agreed. “Of course. I will meet with Indra whenever she wants.” Kane spoke before leaving Bellamy and Octavia alone. The male returned his attention to his sister and looked towards his sister. “You don’t have anything to be sorry for, Octavia. I heard some about what happened. I’m so sorry about what happened to Lincoln but I know that he loved you.” He whispered and gave her a tight hug again, wiping her eyes clean of the tears and closing his eyes tightly, just trying to focus completely on his sister.

“I love you too, O. Everything’s going to be okay. I’m glad you’re back, but… did something happen? Is that why you came back? Talk to me.” He whispered, knowing that they had so much to talk about in these past months. Plus, he wanted to talk about her baby which was going to be his niece. However, he just wanted to make sure that she was alright first before doing anything else. While waiting for an answer, he kept hugging the girl to his chest, hoping to help calm her down.
 
"I have every reason to be sorry, Bell. You were tortured because of me. Clarke was almost tortured because of me, too. I abandoned you. I'm so sorry." Octavia hugged her brother tighter when he mentioned Lincoln's death. "Thanks, Bell." She whispered and gave him a small smile when he wiped her eyes clean of tears. "I had to leave the village. Other clans became aware of Lincoln's death and started to attack the village more often. I promised Nyko and Indra that I'd leave after Laqueta was born. She was born a few days ago and once
I got my strength back, I asked them to escort me back here. We stopped a mile away so they could return safely to the village."
 
Bellamy listened to Octavia talk and nodded his head slowly along with every single word that she spoke. After a while, she stopped talking and he pulled back from the hug, looking down and offering her a soft smile. “Well, you’re back now and that’s all that matters. Are you hungry or thirsty? Can I get you anything?” Bellamy asked softly, looking down at his sister. “Can I hold her?” He asked softly, looking down at the baby, his niece. He knew it must be hard for Octavia to try and raise the baby on her own so he would make sure she did not have to. He was going to help her and he was sure Clarke was eager to help, too.
 
"I just need to rest a little, that's all. Nyko said that I shouldn't have made the trip back to Arkadia so soon, but I didn't want to keep putting them and the rest of the village at risk." Octavia nodded when Bellamy asked to hold her daughter. She gently placed Laqueta in his arms. "Oh, and I wanted to tell you. There's are two water sources nearby that can be
used. One for drinking water and cooking, and the other for showering and clothes. I know how to make clothes, and I'm going to start doing that for the community. I also know
some first aid, so I can be useful during emergencies."

Octavia paused for a moment, and then her nose wrinkled a little. "Bellamy. I mean this in the nicest way possible. You stink of sweat and sex. You can hold Laqueta for a few minutes and then I suggest you grab a shower. I have a new shirt for you to wear, as I know that torn one is getting pretty torn up." She reached into her bag and pulled out a shirt that she had made for him. "I'll make other clothes soon, but I knew you at least needed a shirt for now. I can go to the water source and wash your clothes in a little while."
 
Bellamy smiled at Laqueta and held her against his chest. He almost teared up and seeing the young child, knowing that this baby was produced from his sister. Laqueta already had Lincoln’s eyes and he found the baby to be adorable. “She’s a cute one.” He chuckled and held her, acting so natural and so good with the child. It was natural to him since he took care of Octavia most of the time anyways while their mother had to work. Bellamy already had this skill necessary with babies. After taking his time there, he finally handed her back to her mother and chuckled at everything Octavia did and said about how he smelled.

He did blush slightly at the mention of smelling like sex. It was not exactly a secret, though. Clarke could be rather vocal during sex but even the smell was obvious, too. “Thanks. I guess I will use that to get washed off then. And that’s good to hear that you learned so many things. You can definitely help out a lot around camp. We’re happy to have you back, Octavia. I missed you.” He whispered, thanking her for the shirt again as he placed it to the side. “There’s actually an open room right on the same hallway as mine and Clarke’s if you want a room close to mine.” He suggested, now leaning against the wall.
 
Octavia smiled as she watched her brother holding Laqueta and bonding with her. Her heart squeezed in her chest. Both an ache for Lincoln, and for the love she had for her brother. "You're a natural with her, Bell. Just like you were with me." He handed her daughter back to her, and she carefully took Laqueta, holding the baby against her chest. "I can show you
and Kane where the water sources are." They talked a little more and when Bellamy offered her a room close to his, she raised an eyebrow. "I won't have to listen to you and Clarke having sex all the time, will I? She's not exactly quiet about it. And out of curiosity, do you guys share a space, or do you each have your own rooms?" Octavia knew it wasn't any of
her business, but hell, she was feeling nosy.
 
Bellamy chuckled softly and shook his head. “Well… I’m sorry about any noise. Yes, we share the same room. We have ever since we moved into the new living quarters. You know, I actually found a couple old wedding bands in some underground shelter. It might not have been a fancy jewelry store but I’ve wanted to ask her to marry me. I mean, it’s been almost two years, I think. I can’t keep track of the days. But I know that I love her and we face so many dangers. We have nearly died so many times. I want to make her my wife. I just don’t know if I should ask her or what she would think. I know we have things to worry about surviving… but I just want to take a day or two to have a wedding… do you think that sounds stupid?” Bellamy asked with a soft chuckle, always finding it easy to talk to his sister.
 
"Well, I guess I can ask Raven to make me a pair of ear plugs so I won't hear you guys," she said and smirked at her brother. Octavia nodded when Bellamy talked about how he lived with Clarke and wanted to marry to her. "It's not stupid. There's nothing stupid about how much you love her. I'm sure she never even considered a wedding, since there hasn't been
one between our people in years. It'll be a nice surprise for her. Although, I just want to make sure. Are you completely sure about this? I mean, you're asking to be double teamed by her and me for the rest of your life, big brother. Do you think you can handle that?" Octavia teased, as she led Bellamy out of the Ark and to the water source. "You need that shower, now. My eyes are starting to water." She turned her back to her brother and held out her free hand for his clothes. "I'll make it quick when washing them and just whistle when you're done and I'll bring your clothes."
 
Bellamy quickly showered and felt reassured about asking Clarke to marry him. He whistled for Octavia when he called for the clothing and he was surprised and how quickly she was able to wash everything so perfectly. His clothes looked brand new so he dried off with a towel and thanked her before dressing and exiting the water. After he was dressed, Bellamy removed the map from his pocket and marked down the coordinates. After that was finished, he returned back to Arkadia with his sister. They talked for a while and eventually, he was finished with her. “Do you think you could show Kane the other water sources now without me? I’d really like to talk to Clarke now. I have a few things on my mind.” He admitted with a soft smile after hugging Octavia and Laqueta again one more time. He knew they both trusted Kane and whoever Kane chose to take with him so they could fine these water sources. Now, since Bellamy and Octavia were reunited, the male felt confident knowing that they could continue talking later but this whole idea about marrying Clarke was eating at him from the inside as he was practically dying to ask her now and talk to her. Seeing Octavia return with a child and hearing her still optimistic outlook gave him new hope.
 
While Bellamy was gone, Clarke had showered and washed their things, before going to spend some time with her mother in medical, and offering to help out. Her mother had said that Octavia was back, and had a child with her and she let out a sigh of relief that both were okay. She finished dressing a wound on Miller's leg, then helped him off the table and out of medical. "Remember to check in with me once a day so I can make sure your leg doesn't get infected." Once Miller had nodded and left, Clarke helped out with a few more patients,
and then excused herself when she saw Bellamy. "Hey, how did your reunion with Octavia go?" She asked and slipped her arms around his waist, hugging him.

"My Mom told me that she was back. I know that you've been worried about her, since I lost contact with her a few months ago. I also knew that she would be okay. I told you that she's strong and stubborn, just like someone else I know and love, and I was right." Clarke said and then stood on her tip toes to kiss his lips.
 
“Our reunion was great. Octavia is doing well. I know she misses Lincoln but her baby keeps her going. You should meet her soon. She also found some new water sources we can use. She’s out showing Kane now… but… can I talk to you for a bit? In private, please?” Bellamy asked, reaching down for her hand. They made the short walk from the medical station back to their room and Bellamy closed the door. Of course, nothing was wrong. He just felt this was something better to do in private. Besides ,what girl wanted to be put on the spot like this when someone was asking them in marriage.

“Clarke, I love you so much. I know I tell you every day but I can never say it enough. I remember the first time we told each other, back after we made love the first time. So much has changed since then but you have been the only thing that is constant in my life. I never want to lose you Clarke. I want to be with you, forever. Or for as long as you will have me. I can’t imagine a life without you.” Bellamy whispered softly, pulling her against his chest for a tight hug. “I don’t know exactly how to do this but I guess the best way… is to just do it.” He took a deep breath and kisses her sweetly one more time, dropping down to one knee in front of her, taking her left hand in his, pulling out one of the rings. “Clarke Griffin, We’ve been together almost two years but it feels like a lifetime. We’ve gone thorugh so much already but we always come out stronger. I don’t want to just say you’re my girlfriend anymore. I want to call you my wife. Will you marry me?”
 
Clarke was happy to hear that Bellamy and Octavia had had a great reunion. A smile curved her lips when he mentioned that Octavia had a daughter. "I'd love to meet her. So, how does it feel to know you're an uncle?" She teased gently. He mentioned that Octavia had found more water sources for them and a relieved sigh left her lips. "I'm glad. That's going to help more than I'm sure she knows." Bellamy asked to speak with her privately, and she nodded. "Of course." When he took her hand and led her to their room and closed the door behind them, a smirk appeared on her lips, thinking that he wanted to have sex again.

She was surprised when Bellamy started to talk, instead of pushing her down onto their bed and removing her clothes, but she focused on what he had to say. Clarke nodded at everything he said, and she wrapped her arms around him once more, when he pulled her against his chest in a tight hug. He kissed her and then dropped to one knee in front
of her. Clarke squeezed his hand that still held hers and when Bellamy asked her to marry him, she nodded tearfully, and pulled him back to his feet once more. "Yes, I'll marry
you, Bellamy. I love you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you."
 
As euphoric as sex with Clarke has been, Bellamy had never felt happier than he did in this moment, hearing Clarke say ‘yes’ to him. By ‘normal’ societal expectations on the Ark, they were getting married too young and too quickly. However, they were on the ground now and have endured unbelievable losses together and shared unimaginable guilt together. Throughout everything, their love had only grown stronger when most would have broken. Blinking back his own tears, Bellamy stood to his feet and slipped that ring onto Clarke’s finger, amazed at what a different it made. It was shining so bright already. He placed the second wedding ring into the palm of her hand so she could slip it onto his finger at the ceremony.

“You make me the happiest man in the world.” Bellamy whispered quietly and pulled her against his chest again, hugging her as tightly as physically possible without hurting her. “Octavia said she learned how to make clothes. She made me this shirt and offered to make outfits for the wedding. I talked to her about it… just her and your mother. They are the only two that know.” He whispered as he did talk to Abby earlier that week. He just thought it was the right thing to do. Abby was Clarke’s only remaining parent and Clarke had seemed to finally forgive her for what she did to her father. “She said we could set up a ceremony here, if we wanted one. I think that would be amazing.” Bellamy whispered, pulling back and looking into Clarke’s eyes.
 
Clarke stared down at her hand once Bellamy had slipped the ring onto her finger. It was such a simple action but it caused her heart to fill with so much love for him, that she was
afraid it would burst from her chest. When he placed the second ring into her palm, she grasped it in her hand. His words caused her to look up and they locked eyes. Bellamy pulled
her against his chest again and she could only hug him back. "You make every day of my life better," she said softly. Her eyes brimmed with tears at his next words. "I'll make sure
to talk to Octavia soon and thank her."

She laughed shakily when Bellamy said that he had talked to her mother. "I'm pretty sure she wasn't pleased, was she? But my mother knows how much we love each other. Thank you for talking to her, first. It means so much to me. And yes, it does sound amazing. I wanna marry you as soon as possible," She said as their eyes locked and they just stood there holding each other.

<><><><><><><>

Octavia, Kane and the others had returned from checking out the water sources. She knew of plenty of other things that would be able to help their community and would wait a while before letting it be known. For now, they were fine. They had different sources of clean water, new clothes that she would make for them in the upcoming months, and had also discussed with Kane, teaching the kids to fight. They walked back into Arkadia and Octavia headed for medical, to pick up Laqueta from Abby, who she had asked to look after her and do a check-up on.

After getting the word that Laqueta was healthy, she thanked Abby and then excused herself and her daughter and headed for their room. It turned out that the only available
room was across the hall from Bellamy and Clarke, so she took it, after stopping by Raven's workstation and asking if the other girl would make some ear plugs for her. After
getting an agreement and a hug, she and Laqueta settled in to relax for a little while. Octavia sat down on her bed and started to sing to her daughter.
 
“You know, I was honestly nervous asking you.” Bellamy admitted with a small smile. “I wasn’t sure how you’d react. I know we’re still dealing with the Grounders and with what happened at Mount Weather, but when I’m with you, I figured out a few things. I realized that surviving is not the only thing we should worry about. I don’t want to just survive and ignore everything else. I want to live, too. I realized that I could only live, with you. Everything else was just surviving. You are the only girl that can make me happy or that makes me feel loved or that makes me feel like giving my own love. The only regret I have about us is not kissing you the first day on the ground.” Bellamy explained this last part with a small chuckle but it was true. Bellamy would have given anything to have not messed around with those other girls at the start and only focused himself with Clarke but he was too immature back then. Things were so much different now and Bellamy was much more mature and valued love over a night of fun. Besides, with Clarke, EVERY night was fun and that thought made him smirk a little. He thought the sex was only going to get better, too.

“I’m happy to take this chance and just step away from everything at least for a few days. I want to have the time of my life and marry you and even just pretend like there’s nothing else going on in the world. I think we both deserve that after everything we have done to live so far.” Bellamy whispered, resting their foreheads together. It was not long after this, he heard the door beside their room close and knew it was Octavia. “That’s probably my sister. I know that’s one of the only living quarters still open. We should go over and tell her the news.” He murmured, grabbing Clarke’s left hand, lacing their fingers together while exiting the room and going towards the other side of the hallway. He knocked on that once vacant room and called out Octavia’s name. “Octavia. It’s Bellamy and Clarke.”
 
Clarke smiled as she held onto one of Bellamy's hands and they knocked on the door to Octavia's room. The door didn't open but they heard Octavia's soft voice come from inside
of the room, telling them to enter. She and Bellamy walked inside and took a seat when Octavia told them to do so. Her eyes landed on the other girl's daughter, and she smiled.
When Octavia congratulated them, Clarke smiled at her, and accepted the hug when the other woman gave her and then Bellamy one. When asked if she wanted to hold the baby, Laqueta, she nodded. "I'd love to." Octavia placed the baby in her arms, and Clarke was a goner. "She's amazing," the blonde said softly, marveling over the baby's fingers and
toes and how much the baby girl looked like her father.

"Come in, guys," Octavia said and she looked up as the door opened and her brother and Clarke entered the room. "Congrats, you two." She said with a soft smile and then hugged each of them. "The walls aren't exactly great at hiding information," Octavia said and laughed. "Have a seat," she told them. Laqueta had just fallen asleep for her nap, after her mother had sang to her for a while. Songs that Bellamy had sang to her when she was a little girl. It had always comforted her, just like her brother always did. Once they had taken a seat, Octavia looked at Clarke. "Would you like to hold her?" When the other woman nodded, she got up and carefully placed Laqueta in the blonde's arms, showing her how to hold the baby.
 
Bellamy sat down beside of Clarke and watched his future wife holding his niece. He decided to drape an arm around them both as he realized he was in a room with the three most important girls in his life. He looked towards Octavia and offered her another smile. “Well, you already know, but I did ask Clarke. We want to have a little ceremony. I’ll talk to Abby and she’ll help set everything up for us. Are you still up for making the dress and making something for me, too?” He asked his sister, a hopeful gleam in his eyes. He took a moment to reflect on everything. Before landing on Earth, he never thought he would have wanted this with someone: but he did. It was so important to marry Clarke. Some people thought it was just a title and some people married on the Ark just for benefits from the way things were run or they just married to have kids so that the human race would survive.

But now, Bellamy and Clarke were marrying for the purest of reasons: love. He looked down at the baby and wondered if the same would be possible for himself and Clarke in the future, but he knew that they had things to work out and make safe before that happened. He did not want to bring a child into this world until it was safer. Granted, he knew it would never be totally safe but it could be in better shape than it is now. “Do you have everything you need to make it?” Bellamy then asked his sister, trying to get an idea of when they should plan to have the wedding.
 
"I'll need to go to the trading post first thing tomorrow and pick up and trade supplies. I'll need 3 days to make Clarke's dress, and 3 days to make your suit. So, plan on at least a week, with a possibility for more. Because we know there's a chance something could come up. Once I make both of your clothes for the wedding, I'll take requests and sizes for everyone in the community to make clothes for. I'll be able to make a few shirts a day and I'll come up with a process for it. I'll have one day devoted to making shirts, another day making pants or shorts, one for dresses, and in between those days, I'll work on training the kids to fight."
 
After thanking Octavia for her assistance, Bellamy and Clarke stayed in the room for another hour and just talked with his sister and played with Laqueta. When they were finally ready to leave, Bellamy hugged Octavia and bid her goodbye along with his niece. Bellamy and Clarke made the short walk from her room across the hallway to their own. Neither had major jobs to do since they had both been through so much already. Kane was kind about letting the juveniles have less to do and more time to recover. When they arrived back into their room, Bellamy closed the door and approached Clarke, wrapping his arms around her from behind. “We’re getting married… I can hardly believe it.” The male chuckled softly into her ear, just wanting to hold and touch her right now as he thought about actually becoming her husband and her, his wife.
