Chapter 6

Tossing and turning all night, I couldn't seem to fall asleep. The bomb that Clarke dropped the night before had me thinking all night. I couldn't wait to confront my best friend and beat the crap out of him but first, I had to go find what the Ark dropped from the sky.

Something rustled outside the tent and I wonder if it was the grounders. I quickly drew my knife from my jacket and walked out my tent. I saw a figure slowly fading away into the woods. I should surprise them, I thought to myself.

I followed the figure through the woods; It was too dark outside to identify who it was. As it led me deep into the forest, I found the pod that the Ark sent down. The figure ran towards and opened it. As the moon shone on their face, I ran towards them in anger.

'What are you doing here?' I confronted Bellamy.

'I can ask you the same thing.' The first words we exchanged since the kiss but we both acted like nothing happened.

'Blake, I followed you here. You're not sneaky.'

He quickly changed the subject. 'Go back to camp, I got it from here.'

'Bullshit, why did you sneak your way here?'

'Just go.' he commanded, but I didn't listen.

'What was in the pod? I see you've opened it already.'

He grunted, 'Nothing! Just a person but I think they're dead.'

Pushing Bellamy away, I rushed to the pod. I quickly pulled the body out of the pod. As I took the space helmet off to try to gain their consciousness, I realized who it was.

'Raven...' I whispered as I cupped her hands. My eyes started to tear up as I saw her lying in front of me. 'Please wake up.'

Bellamy was in awe, 'Reyes, I'm sor-'

As frustration built inside me, I interrupted Bellamy. 'Shut up.'

Continuing to bawl my eyes, I cried onto my sister. Then I felt her body move, coughing as she tried to catch her breath. 'Y/N?'

'Raven, you're okay.' I smiled as I lightly hugged her.

'Of course I'm okay.' She hugged me back and noticed Bellamy. 'Who's this?'

'Bellamy Blake.' he quickly responded.

'Mhmm.' she hummed as she eyed him weirdly. Raven then turned back to me with a huge grin on your face. 'I'm surprised you're not glued to Murphy.'

I looked down, 'He left, Raven. I don't know where he is'

Bellamy coughed as he tried to get out attention. 'Guys, not to ruin this reunion but we should get going before the grounders find us.'

'You were in a rush to come here and all of the sudden you want to leave?' I bickered.

Raven tilted her head in confusion. 'Grounders?'

Bellamy sighed, starting to walk towards camp, 'Just come with me back to the camp okay? Before we get ourselves killed.'

'What's his problem?' Raven whispered to me as I helped her up.

I shrugged in return, 'I don't know but he kissed me the other night.'

Raven's eyes widen, as she slapped on my arm lightly. 'Y/N, what the hell? Does Murphy know?'

'No, this happened after our argument.' I implied. On our way back to camp, I filled Raven in on everything that has happened so far on Earth. About the Grounders, about hunting and the weird animals that are here to kill us.

'So how's Finn?' she beamed as she call out her boyfriend's name. Being distracted with finally reuniting with my sister, I totally forgot about him.

Knowing that I should bring Finn up, I thought it was best if he told him herself. 'He's fine but you should go talk to him.'

'Of course I will.' She grinned. As she stepped into our camp for the first time, she look around. 'You should go talk to that Bellamy kid.'

'Why? There's nothing to talk about.'

Raven chuckled, 'Dude, you guys kissed. You're going to have to bring it up sooner or later.'

'Correction, he kissed me. I pushed him away.'

'Are you saying that you didn't enjoy it? Not even a little?' Raven smiled and wiggled her eyebrows.

After all that me and John been through, it wasn't a secret that we were starting to fall apart. My feelings towards John was different somehow; it wasn't the same as it was back at the Ark. Bellamy on the other hand showed something in me and honestly, I didn't know what I was feeling right now.

Shrugging in response, I looked back at Raven. 'Can't say I didn't, can't say I did.'

'Go talk to him, Y/N. Maybe it will clear your mind a little better.'

'Alright fine, I'll see you in a little bit.' I headed towards Bellamy's tent, thinking about what to say to him. Raven was right; We can't ignore this forever.

As I entered his tent, I greeted him awkwardly. 'Hello.'

'Er, hi.' Bellamy replied back. 'About the whole Raven thing... I'm sorry. I should've checked up on her. You have every right to hate me.'

I nodded my head, not even processing what he was saying to me. My mind was just filled with how I was going to bring up the kiss. 'Uh, it's okay.'

The time between talking to Raven and coming to Bellamy's tent wasn't enough time to wrap my head around all of this. As I was thinking about what to say, my eyes focused on a familiar object that was by his sleeping space. 'What's that?'

His head turned to the direction I was looking at. 'Oh that's nothing. It was here when I got here.'

'Why is there a radio in your tent, Blake?'

'I really don't know what you are talking about.'

Sighing deeply, I raised my voice. 'My sister is a mechanic, I know a radio when I see one. Now tell me.'

Bellamy took a deep breath, 'I took it out of the pod. I'm sorry.'

'So you weren't going to mention this to me?' I fumed. There were always moments where he was sweet and then just when I thought he's changed, he's back to his asshole self. 'You left Raven to die to get the radio? For what reason, Blake and don't lie to me this time.'

'I-I shot Jaha.' he claimed as my eyes widen. 'When I found out that they were taking my sister to Earth someone gave me a deal.'

My mind was puzzled all over again; But it made perfect sense to why Raven acted weirdly when he introduced himself. 'You couldn't find a different way to come down here?'

'Reyes, I felt like I didn't have a choice. I panicked okay? I couldn't have my sister come here all by herself.' he panted. 'I can't have anyone contact the Ark. They're going to kill me once they find a way to land here.'

Everything made sense now; Why he hated the Ark so much and why he wanted everyone to take off their wristbands. If the Ark thought that we were all dead, they would think that the Earth was inhabitable. That way, no one would ever set foot down here.

'You made people think the Ark is the enemy because of your stupid selfish reason. You are a coward.' I scoffed.

I can't believe I even had an inch of faith in him. I thought he was a friend, even when I never agreed with what he said sometimes. His friendliness was all just an act to cover his own ass.

Bellamy just stood there in silence with watery eyes. 'You know, I almost believed you Blake. Glad I caught myself before I did.'
