Equilibrium- A Bellamy Blake x OC

Chapter 15

I woke up, I felt slightly light-headed. I felt a weight on my stomach. I looked down and saw Raven. She was sitting on a chair, but her upper body was sprawled on top of me. I could hear her light snoring. Oh, how I missed this. "Raven." I said, It came out as a squeak. My throat was dry, and I was tired. She slowly got up.

Her eyes lit up when she saw me, "Cassie!" She grabbed me into a hug.

"How long was I asleep?" I asked her.

"About 11 hours. I've been waiting here since. Don't worry, I changed you, cleaned you. Got rid of that muck in your hair." She said, I pulled her into another hug.

"I love you so much, you know." I said into her hair. I was flushed with relief and the sudden realisation of how much has happened. I finally broke and began crying, I could barely register my own voice. It was tears of sadness and happiness. Relief and guilt.

"I love you too, Cassie." I could feel her tears on my neck, "I'm so glad you're alright." I kissed her forehead, I wanted to ask her if Bellamy was alive. I decided I should remain ignorant. That would be easier.

"You need water." She got up, "I'll be back soon." I got up and looked around, I was in some sort of advanced tent. It was the Ark. I got out, the sun shining brightly in my eyes. Clarke was outside the tent waiting. She pulled me in for a hug.

"I didn't leave you, Cassie. I promise." She started.

"It's alright. I believe you." I said. She told me what had happened, and the two of us slowly walked to the gate as we spoke, not going so far from the tent I was just in.

I heard a beeping from the entrance. "Open the gate!" I heard some of the gaurds say. Raven handed me a bottle of water. I was about to put it to my lips when I looked over at the gate.

Both the voices of Clarke and Raven completely drowned out, it's like the only thing I could see was the person at the gate. I put down my arm.

I was either seeing a ghost, or he just wasn't dead. In came Bellamy, he was fine, alive. A few scars littered his face. He was helping a girl walk, he wore his navy blue t-shirt and black cargo pants. He was just as handsome as he was 5 days ago. The last time I saw him.

I tried to call his name but my voice was almost gone, I hadn't realised but I was slowly walking up to him. We locked eyes for a split second whilst he was talking to a gaurd. He looked away, not registering that he had seen me, but he immediately looked back at me. Shock written on his face.

He let go of the girl, "Cassie!" He shouted, god did I miss his voice. He ran up to me. I dropped the bottle and ran up to him. I jumped into his arms, throwing my arms around his shoulders as he grabbed me, spinning us around. Tears left my eyes as I sobbed. His embrace was warm and comforting. "I missed you so much, Cass." He whispered into my hair.

"I thought you were dead." It came out as a squeak, the exhaustion from crying and lack of water. I was still tired. I needed this so much. "I thought I'd never see you again."

"I'm here, Cassie." He said, removing himself from me. His hand cupped my face after moving my hair. His eyes were slightly watery, "I'm here." He said again.

He pulled our faces together, kissing me, slowing down my tears. I felt like I was finally put at ease. His lips were warm and soft. I missed the feeling of his lips on mine. He had meant so much to me, and I hardly even realised. His grip was tight, as if I'd dissappear at any moment. My salty tears were infused into the kiss.

His nose grazed mine, our bodied pressed onto each other, he pulled away, looking at my face admirably, his thumb grazing my cheek before he pulled me in for a hug, his hand in my hair pulling me into his neck. He sighed contently.
