Bellarke AU~ Camp Arkers

Chapter 15

Clarke's POV

For the first time since my parents death I feel at peace. Sleep isn't exactly something that comes easy these days, so the endless black is calming. But there is a part of me that wants me back in the real world. Not that I hate the power nap, but it feels like I've been asleep for a little too long. It isn't until light starts to leak in through my eyelids and my ears become more and more aware of the whispering that I begin to wake up. I feel my body wriggling and see the blinding light so bright that it hurts my eyes.
"Clarke. Oh thank god your okay", I hear Bellamy say.
"Hi, what-". I can't even finish my sentence before my body is racked with a dry cough that leaves my body aching all over. Bellamy's face lights up in concern and he runs to get water. Without a second thought, I down the cup hoping for instant relief (not that it does much). Once I've caught my breath, I continue.
"What happened?" I ask.
"Someone threw a big rock at you. It sounds silly, but it did a lot of damage. You broke two ribs and nearly punctured a lung. You've been out for two days", he whispers back.
Two days? A rock? Maybe I'm not as strong as I thought. We sit in silence for a while just admiring each other.
"CLARKE! Thank god your okay we were so worried!" Octavia shouts causing the world's worst headache.
"Sshh, inside voices. No shouting", I whisper back.
"Sorry", she replies. The squad all file in behind her and it starts to get cramped in the small medical room.
"I'm gonna go check on all the other kids. See you later princess", Bellamy states before kissing my forehead and leaving.
"How is everyone is? Was anyone else hurt bad? How was Bellamy while I was asleep?" I ask as soon as he's gone.
"Slow down kiddo. We're fine. The only other person that got hurt bad was Jimmy who fell off the roof and broke his ankle, He's gone home. Bellamy never left your side while you were out", Raven answers quickly.
"What do you mean never left my side?"
"He stayed right in that chair. Didn't leave to pee, to sleep. Never", Jasper adds.
"Less about us, more about you. How are you feeling?" Finn asks.
"Like I broke a rib", I joke. Everyone laughs, which is a stupid idea because it make my body feel worse.
"Did we at least win?" I wonder.
"Yeah, your plan worked. Soon after you got hurt, the grounders pegged it. Jaha was furious at Lexa and some say that she got kicked out of camp", Bellamy says as he enters the room.
"Our plan", I correct him.
His face drops and he gives me one of his devilish smirks. Everyone around me starts chatting about the fight and who had the best kill, whereas my eyes start to close. I'm not quite sure, but I think I here Bellamy kicking everyone out. The chair beside my bed squeaks as he takes a seat. With my protector beside me, I fall peacefully into a deep sleep.

When I wake it, Bellamy is asleep instead. I turn to fave him and watch intensely as his chest falls and rises. A tickle starts rising in my throat which I try to swallow, but it won't go away. I start a coughing fit that won't seem to go away and worst of all, it wakes Bellamy up. Immediately his hand is rubbing my back and he is pouring a cup of water.
"Thanks", I say.
"No problem. I spoke to Jaha and he's said you could leave medical today. No work, bit you could come back to my cabin and watch a movie?" He suggests.
"But the campers? Aren't they bored? We have to do something with them", I plead
"The kids will understand. I arranged for Octavia to take them to the forest to play some games", he answers.
"Fine, but I want some food", I pout. With Bellamy's help, I gently get out of bed and walk towards the kitchen.
