Blood Must Have Love (Bellamy x reader/OC)

Chapter Seventeen: Three Months Later

Life with Bellamy has made me far more happier than anything else in my life ever has.  It's easier to forget my time at Mount Weather now as well as focus on my job given to me and Octavia to maintain peace.  Training has been going well and both Bellamy and Lincoln say I've improved greatly.

Trikru has gone no-contact for the most part, save for the radio that Indra has to contact us as well as join us in Arkadia for certain events.  I can tell her and Octavia have formed a mentor-trainee like bond and Octavia looks up to Indra, just as Bellamy and I look up to Kane.

In addition to my peacekeeping job, I have been given a hunting crew to work with that goes out with me to gather food for Arkadia.  Bellamy joins when he can.

Jasper, whom I consider a friend, has worsened his state over the course of these few months by drinking himself into a stupor and basically killing all of his brain cells except for the ones that remind him of Maya.  I would feel pity for him, except one night he told me to 'go float' myself when I tried to help him off of the floor of the kitchen.  I'm not sure what that phrase means, but I assumed it was something equivalent to that of an English cuss word.

Bellamy and I makeout whenever and however we can catch a moment between our busy schedules and he continues to read The Iliad to me every night.  Though reading time tends to get interrupted by other ideas more now.

The love I feel for him is unmatched and he lets me know he feels the same way every single day.  I wouldn't trade it for anything.

One night, Raven caught me up-to-speed with the whole reason why everyone loves Clarke so much, and I've come to admire her to, though I've only met her once and that one time I did not directly speak to her.  Raven says we would have gotten along.  When I asked her why she seems fairly bitter when talking about Clarke, she mentions someone named Finn being killed by her in order to save Skaikru.

I don't quite understand that part, for I don't know who Finn was and Raven refused to elaborate on his relationship to him.

My little world I've built for myself here in Arkadia is peaceful.  I do wish to go visit villages or perhaps even Polis more, but Kane tells me that in order to remain peaceful, we shall not pester my clan as much.

So here I sit, watching Bellamy and Lincoln fight each other in order to practice their hand-to-hand combat.  I'm sharpening my sword as Lincoln starts to win the fight.  People are watching on one end of a room.  The training class has grown quite a bit in the last two months.

Lincoln flips Bellamy onto his back and holds his punch in the air, signaling that he's won this fight.  I try not to get distracted by the sound of Bellamy's labored breathing and his sweat-glistened chest.

Lincoln straightens up to address the class.  "He had me, but he was too aggressive."

Bellamy stands up and grabs his shirt that sits next to me.  "Whatever you say."

Lincoln looks over at him.  "Quitting so soon?"

Bellamy holds out a hand and pulls me to my feet.  "We've got a mapping run.  Sector 7."

Right.  Another thing I've helped Arkadia with these last few months is map the forest that I've come to know so well while growing up.  Kane has started a trend of calling the different areas 'Sectors'.

"Harper," I say, and gesture to the bad she's holding.

She tosses it to Lincoln and he catches it, looking down at it curiously.

"The council wants you to have that," explains Bellamy.

Lincoln takes out a guard jacket from the bag.  He looks at me.  "I'm Trikru."
