"You've got such a big heart, Bellamy",
"Clarke-",
"You inspire people, they follow you, because of this", Clarke places her hand on Bellamy's chest, right over his heart. All of a sudden Bellamy felt a wave of butterflies hit him all at once. His heart began to pound and he prayed that Clarke wouldn't notice; but she did. He looked at her hand still on his chest and then followed her arm to meet her eyes. They stared at each other for a little while and then she dropped her gaze and her hand. Bellamy thought he did something wrong until she started smiling, a half smile though, Clarke never really smiles anymore.
"Bellamy, why was your heart racing ?", she asks him. Bellamy is thrown off guard and struggles to find an excuse. The corners of his mouth twitch into a smirk as he still rushes to think of something to say. "Anything ?", Clarke pushes jokingly.
"It's hot in here", Bellamy starts, "Is it hot in here ? Or is it just me ?", this brings Clarke into a hearty laugh.
"What is it?", Bellamy laughs, taking note of how adorable Clarke looks when she's laughing.
"Bellamy, it's like 18 degrees, it's not hot at all", Clarke continues. Bellamy realised his mistake and drops his head in embarrassment. They both laugh and eventually Clarke rests her arm on Bellamy's, before pulling into a hug.
"It's freezing in here", she says, "keep me warm ?", Bellamy wraps his arms around her, holding her tiny body in his arms. He rests his head on top of hers and says;
"Of course... Always". They stay like this for a long time, in silence, before finally, Clarke breaks without moving away from Bellamy.
"Your heart is racing again", she says simply,
"Why?". He takes a deep breath, he has to confess, you never know what could happen down here, either one of them could die any second.
"Because", he starts, "I have feelings for you, okay?". Clarke pulls away but doesn't let go of his embrace.
"Really?", she smiles, Bellamy simply nods, he's never felt so vulnerable in his life.
"Well, I..... Have feelings for you too", she continues. Bellamy feels his heart leap to his throat as he is filled with overwhelming joy. A smile escapes his lips and he grabs her face gently in his hands.
"Do you want this?", he asks her. She smiles, completely and wraps her arms around his neck and whispers,
"I want you". Bellamy leans in slowly and kisses her gently. He had been imagining this moment since he had met her, but he never thought that she would ever feel the same way, he didn't deserve to be with someone like Clarke, she was extraordinary. But maybe, that's what she had been thinking about him too, this whole damn time. They continue kissing for a little while, completely losing themselves in the moment; forgetting that the world was ending, forgetting that they have work to do, until;
"Finally!", Raven squeals as she catches them. They break apart immediately like they were a
couple of teenagers who had just been caught doing something bad. "Come on, you'll have five years of privacy soon enough", Raven continues before she leaves. Clarke and Bellamy stand awkwardly for a second before starting,
"We should-"
"Yeah"
"Okay"
They quickly left the room in separate directions, both smiling to themselves.
