IVY PULLED ON HER GUARD JACKET BEFORE TAKING OFF DOWN THE HALLWAY. It was time for their mapping run, and she was really excited to be able to get outside the walls of Arkadia for a bit. It always felt so cramped, even though they had tons of space, and she always had to actively avoid her father that people treated like some kind of stand-up man that barbecues and drinks beer with everyone. She was headed toward Enzo's room to grab him when Bellamy fell into step with her.
He was really sweaty because Lincoln had been working with him and using him as an example for the self-defense class kind of thing that he was teaching. She raised her eyebrows at him. "Hey, how was training with Lincoln?"
"All right," he answered, not meeting her eye, and she knew exactly what that meant.
"So you got your ass handed to you?" she asked with a grin on her face. He just glanced at her with a slight smile, giving her the answer that she needed. She chuckled and shook her head. In his defense, no one had beaten Lincoln yet. She had gotten close once, but then he was able to get under her and trip her up. Octavia was the closest because she knew him well and knew how he fought. "I'll take your silence as answer. I'm gonna go grab Enzo."
He nodded, and he veered off at a hallway that lead to where Monty usually hung out, working on whatever he could. "All right. I got Monty and Jasper."
"Good luck with that," she called after him. He shot her a thumbs up. He was going to need the luck because Jasper had not been in a stellar mood lately. Ever since the whole Mount Weather debacle, he was moody and drunk all of the time. He yelled at people and refused to do any work. At first, Ivy had sympathy for him, but now, he really needed to get back on his feet. She knocked on the room that she sometimes shared with the Escobars and swung it open. She smiled at the woman. "Hi, Luisa. Hey, E, you ready?"
"Yeah, " he confirmed, standing up from his makeshift desk. He had gotten bored a lot, so Abby had been teaching him some medical things, and he had been practicing his stitches all morning on a doll that Ivy stole from some kid.
When they got to the Bay, she spotted Bellamy talking to Gina, his girlfriend. She was showing him a book, and Ivy frowned as he leaned in and kissed her. She bit the inside of her cheek but shook it off a moment later. Enzo did not fail to notice the moment of hesitation, though.
