Clarke fell in love with you the moment she met you. She fell for your fiery spirit, your sharp tongue and hard head. You challenged her, made her question everything she knew.
It didn't take long for the two of you to become official. Anyone could see that you two balanced each other, made each other stronger. But, you were also each other's weaknesses. And, unfortunately, that was obvious, too.
A.L.I.E. wanted Clarke's cooperation. She wanted Clarke to listen, to do as she said. It was clear that Clarke would never willingly help A.L.I.E., so she took you as a bargaining chip.
What A.L.I.E. didn't plan on was you taking your own life when it became clear you wouldn't be able to escape. You wouldn't let Clarke give up everything for you, and you wouldn't let her watch you die.
When Clarke found you, she was in shock. She got to work trying to stop the bleeding, but it was clear you were gone.
Soon, she had to come to terms with it. She held you, rocked you, pleaded with you to come back.
Clarke changed that day. She became less understanding, more ruthless. She adopted a phrase she had long fought against.
Blood must have blood.

Octavia is no stranger to loss. She was familiar with death. Because of this, she rarely let herself feel. She didn't want to fall in love because she knew that it could be ripped from her.
But there was no stopping you once you decided to enter her heart.
You were relentless. You forced her to open up. You knew it was what she needed and, deep down, what she wanted.
