Bellamy POV:

So right now im actually scared out of my mind. I want to do it i just dont know where, when, or how and i really wish i knew all of this so that we could be together forever. But first how am i going to pay for a ring? I could go to Abby... oh that is probably not a good idea, Clarke wouldnt like that at all. But what if I went and didnt tell her and repaid it before she even had the chance to know. I will work extra hours and sell some of my old useless junk to pay her back. So it is settled, im taking money from the mother of the bride.

As soon as Bellamy woke up he got dressed and kissed Clarke on the cheek and left on his way to Abby's house. When he pulled up he could see Abby cooking breakfast through the front window. He was almost suprised by the immediate response. " Hi, sorry to bother you, but may I come in and talk for a moment." Bell sat himself down at her table. Abby asked if he would like some coffee. He replied with a simple "No thanks." He got down to discussing the money for the ring and if she would approve of them getting married and she agreed and all that was left to do was pick out the perfect ring. Bellamy drove the 2 of them to the local jewelers. They browsed the counters and saw a perfect white gold ring with a saphire gem and the back crossed into an infinity sign. The man at the counter rang it up to a total of $450. So Bell paid $150 and Abby paid $300. Bellamy now had to find the right place to do it. He thanked Abby and left to go to see Clarke. He looked at his phone and had 3 new messages.

Clarke~ Bell where are you?

Clarke~ Bell?

Clarke~ Hello?

Bellamy~ hey

Clarke~ where did you go?

Bellamy~Sorry princess I ran out to get some breakfast

Clarke~ oh ok, but next time can you please tell me, I would've gone with you.

Bellamy~ ok I'm sorry I will tell you next time.

Clarke~ ok I will see you soon

Bellamy~ bye princess

Clarke~ bye Bell ☺

Bellamy closed his phone and sped over to the nearest bagel place and bought 2 bagels and 2 coffees and sped out the door, so Clarke didn't seem suspicious. He pulled up at his apartment and walked casually into his apartment hiding the ring in his glove box. When he came in Clarke took the coffees out of his hands so he could put the bagels on the table. Then Clarke reached up and kissed him on the cheek and took out the bagels and they both started eating.    "So Clarke" questioned Bellamy "do you like the beach?" She looked up at him and said "Yea ... sure I guess." He cocked his head to one side wondering if that was a yes or a no. "So then where is your favorite place to go?" She looked up at him and rolled her eyes "The lake of course!" His eyes lit up with the look of genius and then dulled with the feeling of why didn't he think of that. "Of course! duh." Bellamy laughed and they finished up their food and went to work.

Bellamy at work;

Bellamy is sitting at his teacher desk, for history, while the students are taking a test. He has a note pad out writing how he is going to propose:

Clarke you are the flower of my life

He immediately scratches that out knowing how stupid that sounds

Clarke I love you and will you marry me?

He scratches that out knowing it sounds to desperate.

Clarke you need me and I need you, and we both know it.Will you make me the happiest man alive and be my wife?

He circles it and spins in his chair, making all of the students look up from their tests all confused.

"Go back to testing class," Bellamy says while blushing," You have 10 minutes."

At his lunch break he talks with his friend Jackson about his proposal. "Wow that is probably one of the best things I have ever heard."

"Are you kidding?" Bellamy asked a little confused if it was sarcasm. Jackson explained it as a sincere comment and Bellamy looked embarrassed and calmed down. "I think i am going to propose today." Jackson looked at him and said "Go for it." Bellamy lifted his head high and walked out of the teachers lounge. He looked at his phone and had 2 new messages one from Clarke and one from O. He looked at the one from Clarke.

Clarke~ hey Bell i have some bad news

Bellamy~whats the matter? Everything alright?

Clarke~ Yea Im fine, but my job isnt

Bellamy~ what do you mean Clarke?

Clarke~ they were cutting back people from their jobs and- and i was one of them.

Bellamy~ oh Clarke im so sorry, can i help?

Clarke~ I dont think so but thank you

Bellamy~ ok text me if you need me

Clarke~ ok

Bellamy~ hey to cheer you up, lets go to the lake tonight♡

Clarke~ Ok! Sounds great, love you

Bellamy~ I love you too, bye

As soon as the conversation was over Bellamy forgot completely about O's text and went to pick out a proper outfit. It was going to be a night to remember.

As soon as the bell rang for school to end Bellamy ran to his car and drove to his apartment. When he got there he ran inside to find Clarke sitting on the couch.  He stopped trying to stop himself from panting." Whats the rush?" Clarke smiled. " Well i have to make my princess happy dont I?" they both chuckled and Bellamy said " I have to change be back in a second." Before Clarke could pick up a magazine he came down the stairs in a pair of chakis and his high school hockey jersey. She couldnt help but crack a small smile. "Are we ready?" She nodded and followed him to his car and hopped in, they were on their way to the lake and to a very important engagement. As they pulled up at the lake he smiled at her and they laced up their skates. He got up and reached for her hand. She grabbed it and pulled up into his arms and they skated around. "Hey princess can you show me a few new moves?" She nodded and asked "Which moves do you want to learn?"

"How bout that triple salchow?" She replied "Sure but its tough, lets start with the salchow and then work our way up." So they worked for hours and hours on the double salchow, and finally he landed it. He had already nailed the salchow, then the double. He was ready for the triple. So he wound up and skated with high velocity and did 1 spin, 2 spins and then... 3 spins! He had done it! The triple salchow! He sped over to Clarke and hugged her. Clarke said "I wish we could do this all the time."
"We can do it all the time." "How-"
Bellamy started doing twizzles around her and he landed graciously down one one knee. Bellamy pulled out the ring.

"Clarke you need me and i need you, we both know it. Will you make me the happiest man alive and be my wife?"

Clarke stood there skate pointed in the ice, with tears in her eyes smiling almost laughing. "I thought you would never ask." He put the ring on her finger and there lips touched and not just for 5 seconds for 1 whole minute, they kissed until Bellamy slipped backwards and Clarke fell on him and they kissed again. They loved  like no other that night at the ice. Then Bellamy heard his phone ringing, O was in the hospital.
