Earth// The 100

Chapter 5// Twilights Last Gleaming

I stood in the tent with the water, attempting to clean the cut on my neck. I dipped the rag in the water then rung it out. A hand landed on mine before I could bring it back to the wound. My eyes followed the arm up to Bellamy, who towered over me. He's eyes we're soft but his features were stern as always. He slipped the rag out of my hand then gently placed it to my neck as he cleaned up the blood.

I closed my eyes trying to keep myself from flinching with the pain. "Hey, remember when you gelled your hair?" I smirk. He shook his head with a smile, "Wanna know how I make my hair look this good without gel?" I whispered with a laugh. "How about we move to other subjects" He smirked putting the rag back in the water.

"We shall be the best of friends Bellamy Blake, I'm going to make it happen" I smile up at him. "Sure Vienna" He nods stepping back. The sound of commotion caught our attention. Bellamy walked out of the tent with me following after.

Finn rushed out of the drop ship with Clarke following after as she tried to get him to stop. "What happened?" I looked up at Bellamy, he shrugged before grabbing the arm of someone passing by. "What's going on?" The boy shrugged, "Everybody's wristbands just died" He explained before running off.

I looked at Bellamy for a moment before walking to the drop ship. When I walk in, Octavia was kissing Jasper on the floor. I raise my eyebrows looking to Monty, he smiles with a thumbs up. I laugh quietly before leaving to my tent.

Octavia came in a few minutes later, we sat up talking about the event of the day. We soon drift to sleep.

I stood in front of my father. His arms on my shoulders as tears filled my eyes. My mother knelt in front of me after saying goodbye to him . "You're so brave Vienna, stay strong for me. Be good okay? I love you baby" She whispered gripping my cheeks before kissing my forehead. As she pulled away she told me to tell Caroline she loved her also. "I love you too mom" I whispered hugging her neck.

She was pulled away by the guards and brought into the airlock. When the large metal and glass doors shut I escaped my fathers hold and ran to them. The screams for my mother ripped threw me as I pounded on the glass. Tears streamed down both of our cheeks as she blow me a kiss before she was tore out of the Ark. A final scream wracked my body before I fell to the ground.

I threw my body off the bed with a gasp as my eyes met the dark of my tent. Quickly wiping the tears from my cheeks, I ran my hands threw my hair. Looking to Octavia, she was still sound asleep.

I took in a couple deep breaths before standing and slipping out of the tent. The camp was nearly empty, almost everyone was asleep except for the few who stood watch or the others who messed around the fire.

My eyes wandered to Bellamy's tent, a small light illuminating the inside.
I made my way to it, slipping in and laying beside him. His eyes were closed and his cheeks were squished to the pillow making his face look pudgier. I looked at the way his hair curled in different directions, it was so fluffy and soft. A large part of me wanted to touch it. "You okay Vienna?" He whispered in a raspy voice. Only then I realized he had been awake and was watching me as I stared with muse at his dark hair.

"Have you been crying?" He asked with concern as he faced me completely. I shake my head, "It was only a bad dream. I'm fine" I give him a small smile before facing the ceiling. "Its my birthday today" I speak quietly closing my eyes. He propped himself up on his elbows, "Its your birthday?" I opened my eyes to see a smile on his features. I nod a smile growing on mine, "I'm finally 18" I sit up.
