Arke High

Chapter 62

Octavia P.O.V

I stood in the room looking at Jasper. I couldn't believe that this was it. I couldn't believe that we were over.  Never had I felt something like I did for Jasper, but that initial spark was gone. No longer did I feel butterfly's fluttering in my stomach, and no longer did I feel like I needed to be with him every chance I had. I still cared for him, but not in the same way, and now it was over.

"O! Get up!"

My eyes popped open immediately. I covered my head with my pillow hoping to block out Bellamy's voice. I was way too tired to be awake right now. Last night Jasper had sent me a text around eleven and though it was only one, had me staying up thinking about it all night. 

"O! Hurry up or we're going to pick up Camilo without you!" Bellamy yelled. Oh shit! I completely forgot. Today Camilo was being discharged from the hospital. Instantly I sat up and went to get out of my bed quickly. My foot though got tangled in the bed sheets causing me to fall on my face. Well that's great, I thought sarcastically.  I pushed myself up from the floor not bothering to fix my bed, as I headed to get my clothes. I threw on a purple and black tank top, and some light colored jeans along with my black shoes. Rapidly I brushed my hair then ran down the stairs almost tripping on my own feet more than a couple of times. Bellamy was downstairs tapping his foot impatiently.

"Ready O?" I nodded.We walked to his Camero and I jumped into the backseat. We then drove to Clarke's's house. Clarke was already waiting outside for us. She hopped into the passenger seat of the car.

"Hey Octavia." She greeted me.

"Hey Clarkie!" I said cheerfully. Charlotte wasn't coming with us because we wanted to keep her as far away from Camilo for the longest time possible, due to the fact that he stilldidn't remember her and we thought that wold hurt her more. She was only twelve and did not fully understand why her brother couldn't remember her.

"How you doing Princess?" Bellamy asked concern lacing through every word. It had only been a couple days since Thalia's Memorial thing. 

Clarke gave him a weak smile."I'm fine. Thalia's mom is leaving tomorrow." Bellamy nodded. Thalia's mom had been here since the day after Thalia's memorial and was already leaving. Unlike Mr. Wallace and his son who had decided to stay a while longer due to Thalia's death. Since Camilo had woken up I had visited him twice. He didn't remember me of course but I knew Clarke had been trying to refresh Camilo's memory. It proved so far, to no avail sadly. The worst part of this whole situation though waasn't Camilo not being able to  recall anything, but that  Mrs. Cortez(Camilo's mother), no nothing about what condition her son was in. Mrs. Griffin had thought it best that she wasn't informed, because it might have a negative effect on her health. Clarke hadn't agreed with her mother, but could not figure out how to tell Mrs. Cortez about her son without making her worry. So Clarke as well as all of us didn't try to tell Mrs. Cortez. Maybe it wasn't the best decision, but what else could we do without hurting Mrs. Cortez? We arrived at the hospital, and walked inside.Clarke had to sign some forms on her mother behalf, so me and Bellamy went ahead to get Camilo. When we entered Camilo was siting on the bed in jeans and a t-shirt that we had brought for him the day before. He stared at the wall blankly as if lost in his own thoughts. Truly I felt bad for him, it must be terrible to not be able to remember anything at all, not even your own family. He finally noticed us and stood.

"Are we leaving?" He asked. I nodded, just as Clarke came in.

"Sinclair says we can leave, and that Camilo will only be missing the first week of school." She told all of us. 

"School?" Camilo asked.

"Yeah. He told us that the tests they took showed that you remember all that youv'e learned, as long as what you learned is not something you learned because of a life event. So in other words anything you learned in school is still cemented into your brain. That means that you should be okay to go to school once youv'e recovered." Clarke told him." Sinclair said your recovery should not take long since your reflexes already seem to be improving and because your basic body functions are working fine. technically that week is only for rest." Camilo only nodded in response. We all walked towards Bellamy's car. Camilo got in the back with me. The ride was dead silent, and I found my self thinking about  Jasper's text: Can we talk? Tomorrow at two at the downtown pizza place?
