Chapter 9

The holidays passed very quickly. All too fast. Before I knew it, there were only three days off. Bellamy spoke to me. He texted that everything was fine, but we couldn't meet yet. I decided not to insist. If everything calms down, then he'll let meknow. However, despite this, I was still very worried about him.

My mom went to work in the morning so I was left alone at home.

In the morning I dressed in some tracksuits and a T-shirt with Iron Man. I ate the cereal and finished reading the book. When I had nothing to do, I turned on the TV so that it wouldn't be so terribly quiet. I barely had time to sit on the couch when I heard a knock on the door. I just sighed and went to open them.

I opened my eyes wider when I saw that Bellamy was standing outside.

"Hey, princess. " Brunet smiled slightly. He still had a few marks on his face.

I didn't say anything but threw myself around boy's neck. Blake laughed and returned the hug.

"I'm also glad to see you too. " Brunet said.

I let him go only after a few longer moments.

"You're okay? " I asked and touched his cheek.

"It's nothing like that. "It used to be worse. " He sighed, and a moment later I let him in.

"Want something to drink? "I asked and headed to the kitchen.

"Maybe water. " Boy said and followed me. He sat down at the counter in the kitchen chair. "How did your holidays go? "

"Bored. " I sighed. "I read only a few books, watched something, and besides, I was dying of boredom. "

"What did you read? " Boy leaned his beard against his right hand.

"Uh... I managed to read two volumes of Poldark. "

"And? Interesting? "

"Very. " I smiled and handed boy water, and I sat in front of him.

"And what did you watch"? Brunet was curious. "Series? Movies? "

"Series. Punisher and Anime with my friend, Octavia. " I took a sip of water. "Um... How about you? How does your mom feel? And... How do you feel?"

Boy sighed, corrected himself a bit in the chair and then looked at me again.

"This time I got hit for the two of us. " He said. "He was so drunk that he could barely stay on his feet. That's the only reason I got hit less than before. "

"It cannot go on like this. " I said firmly. "Bell, we have to do something about it, what if one day he's going to... "

"Kill me? " Boy looked at me. "At least I'll have this life out of my head. "

"Stop it! " I interrupted him. "Don't even think about it! It won't end that way!"

"Clarke... "

"No. " This time I didn't him come to the word. "You can't leave, can you hear me...? Not now, when... " I didn't have time to finish, because my mother entered the apartment.

"Oh... " She called out happily. "Hi, Bellamy. " She turned pale a bit when she saw boy's scars.

I sighed, passed woman in the door, and ran out of the house. Bellamy followed me.

"Clarke! " He cried. "Clarke, wait. " Man finally caught up with me.

He stood in my way and put his hands on my shoulders.

"You can't leave now..." Tears came to my eyes again, but this time I didn't let them flow. "Not now... You let me trust you and I did it... Your percentages in the "Do I like Bellamy Blake?" category went up significantly... You have become very close to me and I don't even believe I say that. And now you just want to give up? " I looked into his eyes. "I won't let you do that, you hear me? You can't... " I was all jittery.

Bellamy said nothing but hugged me tightly. I didn't protest.

I snuggled into his torso. Again, I felt completely safe.

"You don't even know how long I've been waiting for those words, princess." Said and kissed me on the head. "I won't give up... I have another reason why I'm still here. " I moved away from him a bit so that I could look him in the eye. "You. "
