May We Meet Again (Sequel To Ark Weather High) Bellarke

Christmas

Clarke's POV
*2 months pregnant

'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,in hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there.'

I was reading to Noah as we lay in his bed at Lincoln and O's house. It's obviously Christmas Eve and well Bellamy and I are spending the night and day with them tomorrow.

'The children were nestled all snug in their beds, while visions of sugar plums danced in their heads.
And Mama in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap,
had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap.'

"Aunt Clarke?" Noah speaks up

"What's up buddy?" I say closing the book a little

"Will I ever see mommy again?" He says looking at me

I know it's been a month and you should start to get over things, but he's 4 and I know how it feels to lose a parent, but I lost 2.

"Yes, you will see her again. She will always be in your dreams, heart, and in your memories." I say speaking off of experience

I always kept going back to good memories with my parents, I'd dream about them every night and I still do today.

"Really?!" He says getting excited

"Yeah. Alright buddy, time for bed. Santa is coming and he's not gonna come until you are asleep. So I'm gonna tuck you in and give you goodnight kisses." I say getting out of his bed and tucking him in

I kiss his cheek and he kisses mine.

"Goodnight buddy. Love you." I say standing at the door way

"Goodnight Aunt Clarke. Love you too." He says rolling over in the bed and I turn the light out

I close the door behind me and just take a deep breathe.

"You know you do really good with him." I hear Bellamy say from the side of me

"I wish it was easier. I was a lot older when my parents died and I understood more than he does." I say wiping my eyes from tiredness

"Princess, it'll get easier. Once he's older Lincoln will explain to him what happened to her. You don't have to do that right now. We just have to be there for him. Let him know that he still has us. We won't erase his mom from him she'll always be here. Even if she's not physically here." Bell says wrapping me in a hug and kissing my temple

"Thanks Bell." I say hugging him tighter

"Let's go to bed princess." He says grabbing my hand and leading us to the guest bedroom

We got changed into pajamas and we laid down in the warm sheets. Bellamy wrapped his arms around my now growing stomach.

"Goodnight princess. Love you." He says kissing my cheek

"Goodnight Bell. Love you too." I say drifting to sleep

Bellamys POV
"Uncle Bellamy! Aunt Clarke! Come on it's Christmas! Wake your booties up!" Noah says jumping on the bed

"Ugg!" Clarke says rolling on her side facing away from me

"Where is daddy and Octavia?" I ask Noah

"Downstairs. They want you guys to come." Noah says getting off the bed and running out the door

I laugh and roll on my side facing Clarke's back and snake my arms around her waist.

"Princess, Noah wants us to come downstairs." I say kissing her cheek

"Uhm." She says still half asleep
