I'll Be Waiting

Chapter 5 Blessing?

Camilo P.O.V
I stared in shock at Bellamy Blake, the cause of Clarke's current heart break. There was a dead silence in the air. No words were spoken. The atmosphere was tense and straining. Bellamy groaned, and stalked over to the wall. He punched it once, then twice, then three times grunting as he did. He then turned to me, fists still clenched.

His jaw was clenched."What are you doing here?"

I took a step back. He was clearly not too happy seeing me here, and I did not want to start a fight with him. I grabbed a shirt I had laid out on my bed, and pulled it over my head.

"I go to school here," I told him grabbing my boxers and putting them on from underneath the towel.

Bellamy rolled his eyes."You do? I didn't know."

I glared at his sarcasm, pulling on my pants and letting the towel fall once they were His angered face suddenly changed, as a thought crossed his mind."Did you come alone?"

My eyebrows drew together, as confusion crossed my face."What?"

He clenched my shirt in his fists, irritation present on his features."Did you, or did you not come here alone?" His voice was menacing and enraged.
I swallowed, I knew I could probably hold my own against Bellamy, but that didn't mean he wasn't frightening.

"No."

He pushed me away letting go of my shirt. I straightened out my shirt.

"Is she here?" He asked.

I knew exactly who he was talking about."Yes." Bellamy clenched and unclenched his fist as he began to pace the room. He then stopped, coming closer to me again.

"You will not say a word to Clarke about me." He hissed between clenched teeth. "Understood?"

I narrowed my eyes at him."I wouldn't even think of telling Clarke. I actually care about her."

His brown eyes flamed."I care about Clarke!"

"Then why'd you leave!" I yelled back.

His features scrunched up in rage."Because I wasn't going to be the reason she gave up her dream of being a doctor!"

I shook my head, deciding whether or not to tell him that Clarke's dream was never to become a doctor.

"I cared about her enough to let her go!" He yelled."Enough to let her follow her dreams! I let her go so she could be happy."

I scoffed, he should've known Clarke cared about him more than becoming a doctor."She's not happy Bellamy!" He looked saddened by what I had said. It was true though, she wasn't and she wouldn't be happy for a long time." She is barely recovering! She still sees your face everywhere she goes, she still cries over you at night, she still loves you!"

I saw a pained expression cross his face, and I could tell he still loved her too. Fear tugged at my heart, as I realized Clarke and him could get back together. Clarke and I had gotten closer over the summer, and I had allowed myself a small hope for us. I allowed myself to believe that maybe, just maybe she would let me in and help her forget Bellamy.

"You might think that what you did was best for Clarke, but it's not."

Bellamy sighed, running a hand down his face."She's too good for me."

I was taken aback by his words. I remembered what he had wrote in the letter, as I had read it, but I couldn't wrap the idea of Bellamy Blake being insecure. He was confident, cocky even, but not insecure. Not even the least.

"She deserves someone who won't make her miserable." He looked at me."She deserves someone like you."

My jaw dropped, and my forehead creased. Was he saying, what I thought he was saying?
After a moment of uncomfortable silence, I was able to ask,"Do you want me to be with Clarke?" I awaited his answer.
