Find Me (Bellarke's fanfic)

7. The Truth

BELLAMY

"Monty", I called for him. His name left my lips with all the rage I had been holding since I figured the whole thing out.

Monty was standing in his room, looking at the wall quietly. He turned around and looked at me with wide eyes. He swallowed hard and let out a sigh.

"Bellamy", he said as he placed his eyes on the ground.

I could see he was nervous.

He was so screwed.

"You did it, didn't you?", was all I managed to ask him.

He opened his mouth just to close it the second after, as he was going to say something. He clenched his fists tightly and his breathing turned irregular.

"I-I don't know what y-you're talking about", Monty stuttered nervously.

I rolled my eyes and took a step closer to him.

"I think you know perfectly what I'm talking about", I gave him a hard look. There was no way I was letting him lie to me in my face.

Monty started trembling a little bit. He put his hands in his pockets as he placed his eyes on the ground again.

The moment I took another step closer he moved to the side and started walking to the door.

I practically ran towards him and grabbed his jacket with my right hand, pulling him away from the door, not letting him escape. I didn't measure my strength and I made him fall to the ground, so he ended up hitting his back. Monty groaned in pain and he couldn't stand up from the floor for the moment, so I approached him.

"You gave Jasper the goddamn berries!", I yelled at him in frustration. My nails were digging into my palms and all I could see was Monty's terrified face.

"I-I swear I didn't give them to him, Bellamy", Monty managed to say. His voice came out shaky and he was looking at me from the floor with wide opened eyes.

"Stop lying to me!", I exclaimed.

Monty kept looking at me in horror, but he managed to stand up and we were then in the same eye level.

The moment we were face to face, I grabbed his shirt with all my strength and pushed him against the wall. He groaned in pain as his head hit the wall but his eyes never left mine.

I was going to find out the truth.

"This is your last chance, Monty", I assured him, "You better tell me the truth now or this will end pretty bad", I pushed him harder against the cold grey wall.

After a few seconds he kept quiet. I was holding him against a wall and he didn't have anything to say? Unbelievable.

I put both of my hands in his neck and started pushing harder. His face went a little red and he was gasping for air.

"I know you gave them to him. Just say it!", I yelled at his face, "I'm running out of patience".

"...P-Please, Bell...You're killing me", Monty said breathless.

I rolled my eyes and released his neck. I turned around briefly and put my hands over my hand. My rage could take me too far sometimes.

I turned around and faced Monty again, who was leaning against the wall.

"I'm not going to kill you, you idiot", I gave him an incredulous look, "but I will beat the crap out of you if I don't hear a good reason why you gave Jasper the berries", I stepped closer to him, my forehead almost touching his. "I can't believe a didn't notice it before. You totally tricked all of us by playing the victim in front of Jasper. But I knew. I knew Octavia wouldn't do such absurd thing and Jasper isn't stupid enough to eat them by himself, so that leads me to you".
