Octavia's Pov:

I sat in the drop ship all night waiting for a chance to see the grounder that saved me. When Bellamy came out he told me that I wasn't allowed to see the grounder because he is dangerous. I kept telling Bellamy that the grounder saved me but he refuses to believe me. 

When Miller went to tell Romas parents about her passing I used it as my opportunity to sneak up and see the grounder. He was dirty and covered in blood, I felt so bad, like it was my fault. I figured the least I could do was clean him up a little. While I was cleaning his wound I was telling the grounder about how my brother can be a total ass sometimes and then he laughed, he does understand me. A little while later the grounder spoke and told me his name was Lincoln. I told him my name and then he said it wasn't safe to talk and that he only told me his name so the at I would remember him. 

Miller came back up and yelled at me to get out or else he will give Lincoln the beating he's been aching to. I quickly hurried out not wanting Lincoln to get hurt anymore. When I left I ran into Raven washing her hands. She looked at me and then the bloody rag I was holding and said she didn't want to see the other guy. I looked at her and told her who it was, she looked at me and questioned why I was helping the grounder after he attacked Finn. That annoyed me, that grounder saved both of our lives, she should be more grateful. Bellamy had already put me in a bad mood as it is, and now Raven, the girl who I thought understood me most in the whole world thought it was a good thing to torture Lincoln. I lost it then, I told her at least I didn't come all the way down here just to find out my boyfriend was into somebody else. Raven said she wasn't going to do this with me and stormed out, okay maybe I was a bit too harsh because I felt really bad after that.

When I walked out I ran into Jasper who was scared out of his shit, he said that the grounders were coming. He started pointing and yelling frantically at an empty spot in camp claiming for there to be a grounder standing there. I then realised the only thing he had eaten was the Jobi Nuts from our winter ration. I handed him a stick and told him it was an anti grounder stick, that as long as he held onto it grounders couldn't get him.
I left him and walked over to grab a pack of the nuts, I climbed up to where Lincoln was and threw the jobi nuts to miller.

I ran around camp picking up random Jackets and hoodies while everyone was bombed with the winter rations I set off. I went up to see Lincoln and quickly unchained him, I helped him put the clothes on so he could sneak out. He was scared people would see him so I told him my plan, he thanked me but I was just happy to help him survive.
Before he left he leant forward and kissed me, yeah that took me by surprise but I kissed him back. It was different to when I kissed Atom, this time it felt like it was meant to happen. Lincoln has already ran off by the time I got out the bunker.

I saw Raven and Finn helping everyone who had eaten the Jobi nuts so I decided to go over and help them.

Ravens Pov:

I was sitting in the tent with Finn while Clarke told us what he needed to do to get better, she said the he needed to rest and not leave his bed. I made a joke saying that I would pin him down if I had to, it got pretty quiet after that, like I had said something wrong. Clarke definitely didn't like me, but I have no idea why. It's not normal to feel out of place with your boyfriend since forever is it? because that's what I felt.
I sat with Finn and cleaned his wounds, it was relatively quiet, I could tell Finn was hiding something and I didn't like it. I got up and went to wash my hands and the cloth, that's when Octavia walked in. I laughed as she washed blood out of a cloth wondering who she might've gotten into a fight with or who had tripped and hurt themselves, my bet was Jasper. She got pretty pissed at me after I made that joke and then said something which I suspected but I tried to deny the thought of. She said that Finn was into someone else, I could only bet this someone else was none-other than Clarke Griffin. I stormed out the tent to find the figure of the two headed deer.
I put it in my pocket and decided I would confront Clarke once she got back.

I was lying with Finn when monty came in totally bombed talking about the moon and waves of something. I told Finn to stay where he was as I put my jacket on and went outside to see what was happening. When I got out everyone was going crazy, I then called Finn out because I figured this was more than a one person job. Finn and I took care of everyone, I had to tell someone that they were a broom- that was random but I mean it all was. On the bright side everyone hallucinating distracted me from the looming void that Finn might have been cheating on me.

Octavia later ran out of the drop ship, she asked me what she could do to help. I told her that she can help me telling these kids that they were safe and bring them back to reality. She did just that. It was quiet at first until she broke the silence by apologising, she said that she shouldn't have taken her anger out on me because she knows I didn't do anything wrong and that she really likes me. I smiled and hugged her, just as I was about to say something she repeated to me that she was truly sorry and that I'm the only person in the world that understands her. A tear left my eye and I hugged her tighter, I know that feeling, and right now she's the only one who understands me. Finn had always been that person for me but recently he's been a drag and just made me feel bad about myself, quiet the opposite of reassurance.

Once we had took care of everyone, Octavia and I sat down on a log, we talked a lot that night, she told me about her fight with Bellamy, about Lincoln, letting him go, kissing him, how he spoke to her. I don't know why or what it was but I just really didn't like Lincoln, and I was frustrated that he had kissed Octavia. She's so sweet and innocent meanwhile he's a grounder who's whole life is war and savage. I didn't tell Octavia that I didn't like Lincoln because I loved the smile she had on her face and I didn't want to ruin the friendship we had grown into. I started to tell Octavia about how I think Finn cheated on me with Clarke, I saw in Octavia's face that I was right. Ugh I hated that, he didn't even wait 10 days?

I snapped out of my thoughts and looked down to Octavia sleeping on my shoulder. I smiled and rested my head on hers. Next thing I knew we were being woken up by the large cheer of the crowd as Bellamy and Clarke returned. They said they we were done being afraid and that it was time to fight back. Clarke started saying that they aren't toys, yeah no shit clarke. they are murderous weapons but thanks for that lesson.

Bellamy walked over to Octavia and I on the bench and told her that he wasn't leaving, that he was sticking around weather she liked it or not, he then wrapped a blanket over the both of us.
