When Clarke wakes up, she notices that the mat beside her is empty; Ash isn't next to her. She looks to her other side and sees a peacefully sleeping Raven. She smiles to herself; she enjoys the safe feeling she gets around Rae. She slowly and silently gets out of her makeshift bed and makes her way outside the dropship. She hears excited chatter in their rustic kitchen and heads in that direction. She gasps at the scene she comes across. On a crudely built workstation, is a small group of people skinning and removing the entrails of a large panther and buck. "Wha-what? Ho-how?" she stammers to the group who look at her grinning.
One of them answers, "Octavia and Bellamy went hunting last night and brought us food!" the young omega says brightly.
Another responds, "Yeah, so we're gonna prepare some for today and the rest will be smoked." Clarke just nods to them and then grins.
"Wow, these two are something else!" she mutters happily to herself as she makes her way to the center of their camp where she sees the two hunters and Ash sitting in a circle, chatting away.
As she makes her way towards them, she and Octavia lock eyes; blue and blue-green eyes meet and time stops for them. Clarke sees as O's breath hitch and she's sure O sees as her cheeks turn a rosy pink colour. Clarke now feels nervous and wants to turn away but it's too late. She sees as O stands up and makes her way towards her, slowly.
"My goddess of love," Sky's voice huskily growls in O's mind.
"God, Sky, she's so beautiful especially in the morning light. Look at those bright blue eyes and those curves! This omega is going to be the death of me," O rumbles back to Sky. At the back of Octavia's eyes, she can see Sky in a sitting position with a wolfy grin and love sick puppy eyes as she stares back at Clarke.
"Sky, how come I can see you?" O asks, confused. It's the first time this happens to her.
"Oh, through the mindlink; we can project images to each other. You and Bellamy can do that as well however, it uses more energy on our part but when it's just us, it's not that straining," Sky comments as she projects to O an image of her tail wildly wagging as they reach close to Clarke. When she's about five feet from Clarke, O extends her hand and Clarke nervously takes it. They both slightly shiver as tingles flow through their hands and run up their arms. "Hi," Clarke says shyly and O responds nervously as well. "Hi, how'd you sleep?"
"Good, but I've seen you and Bell have been busy during the night," she says a little too excited as she throws her arms around O's neck and presses her face in the O's neck and inhales deeply. Clarke can't fully identify O's scent but she can detect something similar to forest. Octavia is taken aback by Clarke's sudden action but it quickly goes away and she tightens her arms around Clarke's waist and buries her face in Clarke's neck.
"Sky what is Clarke's scent? I can't put a name to it but it smells so sweet and warm," she says dreamily to Sky. Sky projects an image of herself yapping at the happiness she feels when Clarke hugs them so she doesn't answer O's question.
After they separate, O asks her grinning, "What's the hug for?"
Clarke just smiles and says enthusiastically, "O, you and your brother brought down a panther and a deer in one night! That's amazing! How'd you do it?" Octavia doesn't know how to answer so she just lies and tells Clarke the same thing they told the others.
"We just thought we could get bigger game at night and took some spears and bow and arrows and got lucky I guess," she responds to Clarke. Changing the subject quickly she grabs Clarke's hand and says gently, "Come on, the Three Musketeers will leave later on today. Let's spend time with them before they go."
Ash takes note of Clarke's and Octavia's interaction and looks at Bellamy knowingly; he simply nods and gives her a big smile. "I'm glad; they've both suffered at a young age. They deserve all the happiness they can get," she tells him quietly. He simply nods in agreement. When the duo arrive, they sit next to them and all four start chatting about nothing in particular till they hear a loud whistle.
