She follows me out of the tent, calling my name.
"Amara! I'm sorry! Come back" she calls after me but I ignore her, walking as fast as I can.
"Stop" she yells, finally catching up do me and forcing me to stop.
I avoid her eyes and she frowns, releasing a sigh.
"Look, I- I didn't mean it, okay? It just came out" she explains but I shake my head.
"It wouldn't have come out if you weren't thinking it which means you did mean it" I state and she opens her mouth to speak but I stop her.
"Look, Octavia, what you said. You're right. I'm not a good person to be around right now. Trouble always seems to find me so just.......keep your distance" I tell her gently before walking past her.
Not long later do I run right into Lexa.
Her face contorts to one of anger when she sees me and I shake my head.
"I can't do a lecture right now so if you could just let me go this one time it would be appreciated" I mumble and her head tilts.
"What's wrong" she asks gently and I shake my head.
"Just tell me, maybe I can help" she tries again and I blow up.
"I'm not some girly girl, Lexa. I don't need to have a tea party so I can talk about my damn feelings. Just give it up!" I explode and she glares at me.
"You should really get your attitude sorted" she spits before walking away.
I spin around to call after her but it would be useless.
I make my way out there and into the woods.
I make it back to the camp site and I see all four of them asleep together by the fire.
I smile.
They'd never leave me.....right?
Niko cracks his eyes open when he hears my footsteps and he runs towards me.
I stop him before he can charge into me and point to my stitches.
They still have my armor.
I'll get them back another day, at least I have my weapons.
He gently wraps his arms around me and I inhale deeply.
It was nice to be back.
I look at the others and Niko grins before he jumps on top of them, being careful with Dakota.
I notice her larger baby bump and grin.
She's due soon.
Wolves have babies quicker.
They all wake up with a groan and I sit on the ground.
"You're fat, Niko" I could hear Dakota state and I laugh.
Her head shoots up and her eyes immediately find mine. She jumps up with a large grin on her face and I smile.
She walks up to me before she sits down right to the right of me.
She grabs my hand and holds it tightly, resting her head on my shoulder.
"What happened to you" Arrow asks and I sigh.
"A lot of things" I murmur, looking at the fire.
"So, are you gonna let us fight in the war against the Mountain" Bear asks and I shake my head.
"No" I state simply and the all groan.
"I can't risk any of you dying, plus, I don't even know if I'm fighting in that war" I mumble the last part and they all look at me in shock.
"What do you mean, you're not fighting in that war" Niko exclaims and I sigh.
"They don't want me, Niko. No one does. They don't want me, they want my expertise" I state softly.
"What do you mean" Arrow asks, still not getting it.
"They don't like me. They think I'm dangerous and scary. They don't want me there" I tell them and they all look at each other.
"That's not true" Dakota states and I roll my eyes.
"Yes it is. The sooner you realize I'm not the good guy, y'all will leave too" I state.
"And I hope you figure it out soon, for your sake" I continue.
"I'll never be the good guy"
