Chapter 9

Bellamy flipped through Lincoln's notebook. 'He's been tracking us down. He counted how many people we lost since we landed.'

The hatch suddenly opened as Clarke came in yelling. 'Hey, what did you put on this arrow? It's poisoned isn't it?'

'What are you talking about?' I asked as Octavia came upstairs with Clarke.

'Finn started seizing, that doesn't happen if he just got shot with an arrow.' Clarke approached Lincoln. 'Is there an antidote? I know you understand me.'

Lincoln stared at Clarke, not saying a word.

'He carried other things with his notebook, maybe the antidotes there.' Bellamy said as he started going through Lincoln's things.

Octavia approached Lincoln, 'Please, please help us.'

'Begging is no use.' Bellamy spoke as he picked up a rope. 'I'll get him to talk.'

Walking in between Bellamy and Lincoln, I put my hand on Bellamy's chest. 'No. Don't touch him.'

'What do you mean no?'

'I'm not letting you torture him. Let me talk to him, alone.'

Bellamy smirked as he pushed me aside, 'You must be out of your mind.'

'Last Chance?' Bellamy gripped the rope right at he slowly approached Lincoln. He kept his mouth shut, until he groaned when Bellamy attacked him with the rope.

'Bellamy, stop!' Octavia screamed at his brother but he didn't listen. Bellamy swung the rope a couple more times then pulled out a knife from his jacket. Without hesitation I stood in front of Bellamy, defending Lincoln.

'Reyes, move out the way or I swear t–'

'What, you're going to hurt me? Do it then.' I stared into his eyes sternly as I waited for Bellamy to react.

He huffed as walked away and opened the hatch. 'You get 2 minutes.'

The rest of the people followed Bellamy. Octavia, who was the last one out smiled and mouthed thank you before she closed the hatch.

'First, I'd like to apologize to you Lincoln. I know we haven't been the best visitors.'

Lincoln chuckled, 'You think?'

'But you got to understand we were grounders too, far in the past. We were sent here so we can live.'

'That's not our problem.'

'We do what we have to do to help our people. I'm sure you'll do that same for yours.'

He nodded, 'You're right. But you came in on our territory.'

'We didn't know. Besides, you guys started this war.' I added. 'Look, I don't know why your people attacked Finn but I'm sure it was to protect your people. Now I'm doing the same, I just want to save mine.'

Lincoln sighed and pointed the antidote with his chin. 'That should help that Finn kid.'

'Thank you, Lincoln.'

He looked down, 'Can you please tell that boy to let me go? I had nothing to do with the poison and the arrow on that kid's chest.'

'I don't need his permission to free you.'

'Then why am I still tied down?'

'The reason why I trust you is because Octavia does but I want to learn to trust you by myself.'

'Then do trust me.'

I smiled, 'First, I need to make sure that this antidote works. You better be here when I get back.'

'I'm not going anywhere.' Lincoln joked as I opened the hatch and reach down to meet the others.

Clarke walked towards me. 'Did it work?'

'Mhmm' I hummed as I handed Clarke the antidote. She then walked back to Finn and started fixing him up.

Bellamy looked over as his expression changed; I could tell that he was surprise I actually got it without physically hurting him.

Monty squeezed through a bunch of people crowded up in the dropship. It wasn't easy for all of us to fit in here when the storm was approaching. 'Jaha and Kane gave me coordinates to a place where there's ration that'll help us through the winter.'

'Alright, Reyes and I will go then.' Bellamy blurted.

Raven quickly denied, 'I have to watch over Finn. I'm not going.'

Bellamy continued, 'I was talking about the other Reyes.'

'If you don't mind I rather go with someone else. Can I go with Octavia and Jasper?'

'Y/N, go with Bellamy. I'll know for sure that Lincoln's safe if Bellamy isn't here.' Octavia rested her hand on my shoulder and smiled.

I nodded, 'You're right I don't trust Blake being here. But we have to wait until the storm passes.'

'Already ahead of you!' Jasper added as he opened the enterance for the dropship. It was already sunny and the storm was gone. The camp was a mess and everything was falling out of place.

'You guys get this cleaned up while Reyes and I look for rations.' Bellamy commanded, then everyone scattered outside.

'It's gonna be a long trip so I packed you guys some food.' Monty handed me a bag.

I smiled, 'Thanks Monty. I'll see you guys soon.'

As I turn to Bellamy, I motioned for ya to get moving. Bellamy picked up couple of nuts from a pile of food we collected before we walked into the woods for the mission.

'What did you do to that grounder for him to listen to you?' Bellamy said as he ate the nuts.

'Reason with him like a normal human being.' I ignored his eye contact, focusing on finding the bunker.

'I'm impressed.'

'Shut up.'

'Hey, I'm just giving you a compliment.'

I sighed, 'I told you he's not a threat and you didn't listen. And now thanks to you, we're going to have more targets on our backs.'

'We're their enemy regardless of what we do to him.' I ignored him, it was useless to try to talk some sense into him.

'Have you seen Murphy lately?' Bellamy suddenly changed the subject.

The sudden question caught me off guard; I was so focused on the camp that I forgot my "boyfriend." 'No and I don't want to see him.'

'How are you and Raven doing with the little reunion?'

'Why are you asking so many questions? I thought I made myself clear that I don't even want to be here with you.'

Bellamy sighed, 'I feel bad for what I did. I'm sorry.'

'I'm getting tired of your apology.'

'I figure you'd say that.'

'Well, get yourself together then.'

Bellamy started playing with his knife, showing nervousness. 'I'm trying. I try to be the best I can be but it's who I am. I'm sorry for hurting you, Reyes.'

It was times like this where I believed Bellamy Blake was genuinely a good person. Despite his stupid decisions that he made a lot of times, I trust that he was trying his best.

'I believe in you. Although you make me question myself sometimes, I know that you're not that douchebag that I met when we landed here. I can tell that you're trying. I'm sorry too, for not realizing that you're trying to better yourself.'

Bellamy smiled lightly, surprised that I accepted his apology. 'Thank you, Reyes.'

With a soft smile, I replied. 'Yup. Now enough with the chit chat, let's find this bunker.'
