Miller comes rushing in and puts his hands on his hips before looking at me and smiling.

"Have you talked to The Ark?" Bellamy asks him, and he stops looking at me to look at Bellamy.

He nods his head yes. "I told Digg's mom the news, John's dad. I'm supposed to talk to Roma's parents later."

"No!" I say and they both look at me. "I can talk to them. I was close friends with Roma back on The Ark, they'll be glad to see me." I say and they nod.

"Thank for doing that. I owe you." Miller says to me.

I smirk and nod my head. "I won't forget."

"Telling all these parents that their kids were murdered by grounders, I just wish I could say we were getting some justice." Miller says.

"We're not killing him." I tell him.

Miller grabs some fruits and steps forward towards the grounder. "You were a lot scarier when you had that face paint on." He says smashing the fruits on the grounder face, making the grounder head him, sending him to the ground.

I laugh and Bellamy gives me a glare. "What? He was asking for it." I say taking fruit and popping them in my mouth before going down the ladder. When I get down, with Bellamy following me, I see Octavia sitting in a chair. "You're still here?" I ask her.

"I'm not moving until you let me up there to see him." She says.

I scoff. "Get comfortable." I tell her. "We let him live, isn't that enough?"

"I don't know if I can trust him." I try to reason with her.

"Why? Why don't you trust him?" She asks me.

I laugh and count with my finger while saying. "Well, the list's long, so I'll give you the main reason. He's a grounder. A man grounder."

Octavia shakes her head in confusion while Bellamy chuckles. "What does he being a man grounder have to do with anything?"

I stand closer to her. "They aren't trustable."

Obviously, Octavia ignores me and starts discussing. "He saved my life, and yours."

Bellamy finally interjects by saying. "I know you see it that way, but-"

"That's the way it is." Octavia cuts him off.

"He's still dangerous." He tells her.

"Only because of what you did." She says looking at him.

Bellamy ignores her. "Whatever twisted connection you think you have with than animal, forget it. You don't get to see him, end of conversation."

"Why do you even care if I ruined your life?" Octavia asks him, making my eyes slightly widened. "You should want me to go up there. Maybe you'll get lucky and he'll kill me, problem solved."

"Octavia, you know I didn't mean that." Bellamy says.

"Look guys, as much as this is fun. I don't have time for this shit." I say starting to walk off, when Clarke comes in.

"Guys-" She starts making me shake my head.

"The answer is still no." I say making Bellamy agree with me.

Bellamy nods his head for me to follow him. "We're not talking to Jaha." He says.

Clarke stops us. "Hey, relax. That's not why I'm here."

"What, then?" I ask.

Clarke rolls her eyes at me. "The Ark found some old records that show a supply depot not so far from here."
