(B/F/N) stand for "Best friend's name".

Bellamy Blake (Ark/before people find out about Octavia).

She had seen him around the Ark a few times. Usually when Y/N could take a look at him, the boy wore the uniform of the guard. And she had to admit: some dirty thoughts appeared when she stared at him for too long, which led the girl to feel embarrassed and look away. Sometimes he caught her staring at him, which made Y/N leave the place as fast as she could, but the girl often caught him staring at her as well, even before she noticed he was there.

Y/N didn't know his name, and she could bet he didn't know hers either. But when they met in the hallways, they smiled at each other before they continue their ways, as if they were old friends. She had thought about talking to him many times, but the words never left her mouth, causing just a smile to come to her face, which would be happily returned by the boy. She began to accept that maybe things between them would never going to be more than just stares.

Until a certain day.

Y/N was walking in the halls with her friends. They didn't exaclty have a place to go, so they just kept walking while talking. And then she saw him when they turned a corner. He seemed quite distracted as he stood leaning against a wall. Well, at least he was distracted until he heard the noise that Y/N's friends were doing, causing him to look at their direction. When his dark eyes met hers, the girl lowered her head, feeling her face begin to heat up, which definitely didn't go unnoticed by her best friend's eyes.

"Oh-oh." she leaned closer to the girl. "Does little wittle Y/N has a crush on someone?"

The girl kept quiet, trying not to draw the attention of her other friends to the conversation. If any of them find out, she would be dead, her friends didn't know how to be quiet.

It didn't take long for them to pass by his side, then turned in another corner. She could feel his gaze on her back until the moment that she disappeared from his sight.

"He's hot." her best friend continued to talk, causing Y/N to smirk.

"I know."

"What's his name?"

"I don't know." she shrugged.

B/F/N stared at her for a few seconds with a frown on her face, starting to walk slowly.

"I'll slap you if you tell me that you never spoke to him."

"Such a drama queen." Y/N rolled her eyes.

And then B/F/N stopped talking, her body froze as she slapped her face drawing everyone's attention.

"How could I forget?" she said, a guilty look passing through her eyes as she looked at Y/N's other friends. "I forgot that funny thingy that I was going to show you guys."

Y/N frowned in confusion. What funny thingy?

"Ohhh, that funny thingy. Yeah. I was wondering when you'd show it to us." one of the friends said.

"I'm going back to pick up, it'll be fast." she turned directly to Y/N. "Come with me?"

"Yeah. Sure." she said, following B/F/N when she started to walk.

As they turned the corner she saw the boy still leaning against the wall, facing the floor. She felt the need to talk to her friend to not to be tempted to begin to stare at him.
