-Clarke-

I'm strapped into my seat on the drop ship. The familiar sound of the engine echoes in my ears. I've been here before. I remember being here. I remember this from the day all 100 of us were sent to the ground. I look to my left expecting to see Wells beside me but his seat is empty. All the seats are empty.

This isn't how I remember it, where is everybody else. I gaze forward seeing only Finn. He's floating before me. His arms are folded, his hair wayward just the way I remember. He turns his face towards me, smiling happily. He looks so carefree, so relaxed.

Winking playfully he bids, "Goodbye Princess," then vanishes right before my eyes. I gasp in shock. My eyes searching for him amongst the unaccompanied seats, "Where did you go," I whisper unable to disguise the confusion from my voice.

My eyes find a figure stood beside the drop ship door. His back is facing me but I recognise the guard uniform he's wearing. I'd recognise that uniform anywhere. I'd recognise Bellamy anywhere.

Slowly he turns towards me, a dazzling smirk lighting up his freckled face as he playfully greets, "Hi Brave Princess."

I'm blown away by the admiration in his eyes, by his striking features. He looks so smart and handsome in his guard uniform. I remember thinking that from the first moment I saw him. Now that I know him, know the real Bellamy Blake he looks more than handsome. He looks like the hero I know he is.

Unable to take my eyes off him I watch him walk towards me and sit purposefully beside me. Arching his eye brow he smirks, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I'm not looking at you any different than usual, am I?"

He laughs, "Yeah actually. You really are."

"Perhaps I'm just pleased to see you," I state making him laugh again.

Shaking his head he teases, "Why are you all strapped in? We aren't going anywhere," he crouches before me gesturing to my restraints.

As he speaks we both reach for my belt buckle at the same time. Our hands unintentionally touch. My eyes fall to our hands, then slowly I look up at him through my eye lashes; and suddenly I'm overcome by an intense desire to kiss him.

Acting upon the impulse I bring my lips towards his, kissing him softly. His lips are surprised and hesitate at first but soon his lips melt into mine, all hesitancy gone.

Next thing I know, he's unbuckled my restraints and pulled me into his arms. We're both standing now, his arms are hooked around my waist, my hand tangled in his hair as our kiss deepens.

I'm uncertain how long we stand kissing one another, but when he finally pulls away, I let out a little gasp feeling almost breathless.

His chest heaves as he breathes heavily. His eyes burning into mine as he murmurs, "Clarke."

I close my eyes in contentment as he tenderly kisses my forehead but when I reopen them he's gone. Bellamy is gone.

"Not you too," I whisper sadly.

I search the drop ship for him, but he's nowhere to be seen. Feeling frustratedly alone I struggle again the drop ship door trying to escape but it's no use. I'm trapped inside the drop ship all alone.

Defeated I kick the drop ship wall, then fall back into my seat exhaling and closing my eyes in annoyance. There I sit silently feeling utterly alone, wishing Bellamy was still here.

When I reopen my eyes my head throbs painfully and my vision is blurred but I'm no longer inside the drop ship. I'm somewhere much brighter. The brightness makes me feel dizzy or perhaps that's the pain in head, it's so intense I can barely keep my eyes open.

I hear a loud menacing laugh and somebody sneer, "Your boyfriend isn't here. Stop calling for him! He isn't going to save you!"

His voice is drowned out by my own agonising cry as something hard crashes against my head and I'm consumed by pain.

Thanks for reading. And voting + commenting, all your support means so much!

Hope you don't mind that I did another Clarke chapter + that you see what I did here.

Let me know what you thought or if anything is unclear.

This took me a little longer to write than I would have liked because wine is evil!!

How amazing is Tom Odell's song Can't Pretend? It's from season 1, loving this song at the moment.
