And here it is, our final night alive. And as the earth burns to the ground, oh, girl it's you that I lie with as the atom bomb locks in.

THEY WEREN'T GOING TO make it back to the bunker. And while they had all known for a couple of hours, there were still people waiting for them, watching the clock as it moved further and further down. Raven had taken Bellamy upstairs first and fitted a radio from the lab for him to use. Their rover radios weren't strong enough to signal that far from the bunker, so it was a miracle that Becca had one that they could use.
⠀⠀⠀It took a few decent tries to get through, but soon after Kane had answered before pulling Octavia for him. Before he had given her the radio, though, he had said, "Take care, Bellamy. We will meet again." Then, Octavia had taken the seat and Bellamy explained everything that had happened on their journey. But, Bellamy was comforted by the fact that at least their spots inside the bunker would be filled.
⠀⠀⠀"Ten years?" Octavia asked, incredulous, once he'd finished. "Can you really survive up there?"
⠀⠀⠀"Raven says we can," Bellamy said, hunched over the receiver in his hand as he smiled softly at the thought of their reunion. "As soon as it's safe, we'll find a way back down. We will meet again."
