Last One Standing ➣ Bellamy Blake [Book 1]

9.0 I Don't Believe You

Andromeda was awakened in the middle of the night by the cries of the other kids in the camp. She groggily sat upright and rubbed her eyes; it took her a second before panic started to set in. What if it was Grounders?

"Octavia, wake up!" she shouted at the girl next to her.

Octavia rolled over, "Hm? What?"

Andromeda was hastily shoving her boots onto her feet, "Come outside, now!"

She pushed open the flap of the tent and saw that the other criminals were coming out from there tents too. A kid pointed up to the sky and Andromeda saw a flaming ball fall from the sky. That was obviously not Grounders. She turned on her heel and jogged to Bellamy's tent to get him to see this.

"Blake, you need to get out here, now," she said as she entered the tent.

She didn't see Bellamy alone in the tent. He was sleeping naked with two naked girls curled into his chest. She felt as if her stomach had contracted and fell to her feet. At the sound of her voice he jolted awake. He looked around and spotted her, freezing before he removed his arms from around the girls.

Andromeda clenched her jaw, "There's something you need to see, Blake," she said coldly and quickly turned to make her way out of the tent.

Bellamy stood up and wrapped his blanket around his waist, "Andromeda, wait."

She didn't look back but pushed her way out into the nigh where most of the camp was outside by now. Various people were pointing but mostly people were just whispering excitedly about what it could be. Octavia limped her way over to Andromeda.

"What is it?" she asked.

"No idea, from the Ark obviously though," Andromeda muttered.

Bellamy came out of his tent with nothing but pants on looking around frantically. He spotted Andromeda and walked over to her side. She shifted her weight to her other foot to be closer to Octavia. Before Bellamy could open his mouth to say something to her, Octavia tapped him on the shoulder and pointed to the sky. The rest of the camp gathered around them including Bellamy's previously sleeping partners.

"They're coming to help us," a kid named Nathan shouted from behind them, "Now we can kick some grounder ass!"

"Please tell me they brought down some shampoo," one of Bellamy's girls said.

Andromeda felt sick just by being near her. Bellamy spun on his heels and marched his way back into his tent. With no barrier between her and the girls Bellamy slept with, Andromeda pushed her way back to her tent.

When she got there, she just stood in the middle of the tent trying to get rid of the warm feeling that was radiating through her body. She sighed and rubbed her face. In the corner of the tent, she saw the spear that she had finally made. For the past week she had been practicing with it in the case they would have to defend themselves from grounders. She was still hopeless. She grabbed the spear and rammed the tip so deep into the ground that even some of the pole had imbedded itself in the dirt.

"Who pissed you off?" Octavia wondered. Andromeda spun around to she her friend furrowing her brows at her.

"It's nothing," Andromeda sighed and she plopped down on her bed.

Octavia lay down next to her without asking, "You're so full of shit." Andromeda looked at her and then back to the celling.

"Your brother," Andromeda said quietly.

"What did he...ah...."

"Ahh.... What?"

Octavia smiled, "Nothing."
