The Librarian (Bellarke Edition)

Epilogue

Two years later...

Clarke's apartment was loaded with boxes again, she was so sick of packing it was unreal. At least this time it was someone else's crap in those boxes.

"That's the last of it, we are officially living together" Bellamy said dropping two more boxes on the living room floor and kicking the door shut.

"Worst part is we do this again tomorrow just moving stuff from Well's moving truck to Charlotte's apartment" Clarke sighed leaning against the wall.

"At least we get a little break, Maya isn't moving in with Jasper till she is out of school for the semester and Monroe is selling all her stuff and just bringing what fits in her car, when she moves next week. The apartment has all the appliances, her and Miller will just have to go shopping if she needs anything else." He smiled.

"I can't believe they are all moving up here, it's crazy" she laughed shaking her head.

"Like you, crazy" he stated.

"Hey now, crazy about you maybe." She replied earning a grin from him.

"Don't forget tomorrow my whole class will be checking into the library at 2, did all those books come in?" He asked her checking his phone quick.

"Yes, I have them all set out and ready for you, we set the conference room up, you should all fit in there" she replied.

"Great babe, you are the best" he replied moving boxes around. They managed to just clear a path to the couch and sit down when they heard a knock on the door. Clarke sighed standing and making her way to the door. As soon as she opened it she could hear Octavia talking away.

"Oh look Echo, its Auntie Clarke, I bet Uncle Bellamy is here somewhere" Octavia said carrying Bellamy's new niece.

"He's on the couch" Clarke said as she reached for the baby.

" Oh I don't need him, here's her diaper bag, I have to run into town quick, can you watch her for an hour or so?" She asked.

"Do I have an option?" Bellamy smirked.

"No" Octavia answered kissing the baby and shutting the door.

Clarke made her way back to the couch with Echo. She put Echo on her lap facing her. Bellamy sat watching her make faces at Echo, eliciting giggles from his chubby cheeked niece. He smiled at the two of them.

"What do you think Uncle Bellamy?" Clarke asked.

"I think the two of you are my favorite girls" He smiled kissing them both on the cheek. Echo squealed reaching for him.

"I also think that one day you will be a great mom" he said watching her.

"Is that something you might want?" she asked.

"Kids? hell yes, with you? definitely" he replied.

"Good, me too" she smiled.

"We are going to do it in the correct order though, Octavia not being married is eating me alive, call me old fashioned if you want. I know Lincoln isn't going anywhere but it's the point of it that gets me" he replied. He could see Clarke holding back her smile. She was a believer that if you were in love it didn't matter, not her life, not her place to judge.

"We know, don't we Echo?" She sat playing with the baby. All the thought's of babies and being married, he didn't think they were ready for that, but maybe something to complete their relationship, something for them to raise together. A puppy, a puppy would be perfect, now to find one a few days before Christmas.

...

Clarke, Echo, & Octavia were doing last minute shopping Christmas Eve, as were Bellamy and Lincoln. They avoided each other all day as to not give away any surprise gifts. The girls walked past the pet store three times before giving in and going in. The store was full of people buying last minute pets for gifts. Clarke walked past one crate a small beagle puppy cowered in the back corner. The poor thing was alone and looked so sad.

"Octavia, look " Clarke said, she could feel the tears welling in her eyes thinking about him being left there alone on Christmas. Octavia nodded, she snapped a pic inconspicuously and sent it to Bellamy with the address of the store.

"C'mon Clarke, That's a decision you need to make with Bell, if he's still here after the holiday then maybe you can come back and get him" Octavia said dragging her friend out. Octavia spotted Bellamy and Lincoln in the sports store across the hall and directed Clarke in the opposite direction. They took separate cars so for all she knew they could be in a different town doing there shopping.

That night they got everything wrapped nicely and put it under the tree at Octavia's. Clarke and Bellamy's apartment was a mess with moving a few days ago, they didn't even have time to put a tree up.

Christmas morning Clarke was up bright and early so excited for Echo to open gifts that she woke up Octavia to ask if her niece was awake yet. Once Bellamy woke up they headed next door to his sisters. Everyone had breakfast and opened gifts. The girls were cleaning up when Bellamy went and got another gift from Octavia's room and brought it out to Clarke.

"What's this?" she asked.

"Your gift, I forgot it earlier" he smiled.

"What, you got me plenty, this is crazy"

"Will you just open it, it probably needs air" He stated hurried. She quickly removed the top.

"Oh, Bellamy." was all you could understand through the tears.

"Are we good tears or bad" he asked quietly.

"Good, so good. It's the one I wanted, O told you" she sobbed lifting the tiny puppy in her hands and holding it close to her. He sat at the table pulling her and the puppy on his lap, just in time for Lincoln to round the corner with Echo.

"We forgot one too" he said as Echo chewed on a small jewelry box.

"Oh, Lincoln, why would you spend money on me, we said small stuff only, save the rest for Echo's gifts" Octavia said pulling the box from Echo's hand. She opened the box at the same time Lincoln dropped to one knee.

"Octavia Blake, will you give me the greatest gift I could ever ask for and Marry me?"

"Yes, oh my god yes" she said kissing him and Echo.

"It's about time" Bellamy mumbled receiving a warning glare from Clarke as they stood to congratulate them.

They spent the day as one big happy family sitting on Octavia's floor playing with Echo and the new puppy, they couldn't have been happier at that very moment, it was perfect.
