Chapter 25: Raven

Chapter 25: Raven

"When will Mommy and Daddy be back?" Harper asks me.

"Anytime soon," I answer.

"Will Mommy definitely be here?"

"If everything goes according to plan, yes."

Harper's been paranoid for the last few hours, asking me questions about how Finn and the rest are doing. Knowing them, I'm sure they got Clarke out fine. I just hope everyone did what they did for a good reason.

"Octavia!" Jasper shouts from a nearby tree.

I hop over to them on my homemade crutches with Harper, worry coursing through me. Upon arrival at the scene, I notice Octavia lying on the floor, her leg bent slightly in the wrong direction and her whole body covered in blood.

Jasper has tears rolling down his cheeks. "She-she just jumped," he says.

"Was she really that devastated about killing Lincoln?" I ask.

"She didn't kill him!" He shouts.

"Lincoln?" Harper questions. "He's dead?"

I turn to face her. I can't crouch down to her level, so I stay standing up. "Sadly, yes," I say.

She looks like she doesn't know what to say, so she just nods.

A few others come running out; Clarke, Finn, Bellamy and Monty.

"Get her into medical!" Clarke shouts.

Bellamy runs over to Octavia, lifting her unconscious body into his arms and running as fast as her can into the drop ship.

"Mommy!" Harper exclaims, running to Clarke with her little legs.

A look of shock crosses Clarke's face, then a look of happiness. She embraces Harper lovingly and I think I see the shine of tears in her eyes.

"Do you need any help in medical?" I ask.

Clarke gets up. "No, thank you," she says, running back into the drop ship.

"Can I come in?" Harper asks.

Clarke looks unsure. "Stay with Daddy," she tells her. "I'll go and get him." She's back in about a minute with a startled-looking Finn. She whispers something in his ear and then disappears again.

I limp into the drop ship. "Bellamy!" I shout.

He looks traumatised as he stares at me, registering my appearance. "Yeah?" he asks, walking over.

I hug him tight with my working arm, letting go of one of my crutches.

"What's wrong?" he asks. "I should really be getting back to Octavia..."

"Clarke's looking after her," I say. "So, stop worrying about her for a second and just -"

His lips crash into mine, silencing me, but I break away.

"Don't," I warn.

"I'm sorry," he says, wrapping his hand around my neck and bringing me closer. "I just... I just miss you. I put you on hold for so long I didn't realise how much I wanted you. Until now."

I lean in to kiss him, softly this time, and he picks me up.

"Get a room," Clarke mutters stressfully.

I laugh at her comment but we continue kissing. Bellamy steps out of the drop ship with me, and begins walking to a place which I assume is his house. We lie down on the bed - still kissing - and he lifts his shirt over his head. The rest of that moment is a fast blur.
