"Ready to go to your house for some room decorating, Clarke?" Octavia approaches me.

"Let's go," I smile, happy that I actually made a friend, "thanks for coming for me by the way."

My aunt isn't home, so I didn't have to worry about the whole introduction process. Octavia immediately gets to working on opening the bags of decorations I bought a week ago and starts arranging them around the room. She's got great taste. I already knew that though, because her outfits are to die for.

It starts to get late when we hear my doorbell ring. I open the door.

"Oh, hey. How do you know where I live?" I ask extremely confused and concerned.

"You dropped your watch outside of your Spanish classroom," Finn replies, "so I figured I'd get your directions from someone who knows you."

I laugh. "But no one knows my address..."

"Oh, well yeah, I sort of went through the town address books and found your aunt's address." He answered. I get a very creepy vibe coming from the conversation. What person would go through all of that trouble to give me my watch back?

"Thanks, have a good night Finn." I say as I shut the door before he can add on. I turn around to find Octavia watching me.

"That's weird. I never saw him be so creepy like that ever before." She says as the doorbell rings again. I feel chills down my spine. Wherever I go he will follow. Or maybe I'm just watching too many horror movies.

"Listen, Finn-" I am interrupted by a boy with brown eyes and brown hair, Bellamy.

He spots Octavia in the corner of the room.

"Finn was here?! With you two?!" He looks me directly in the eye and then immediately charges into the room, grabbing and dragging Octavia out of the house by her wrists.

"I'll call you tonight, okay?" She shouts so I can hear.

"Hey, Bellamy!" I yell. "We need to talk." He starts to come over.

"Listen I don't have all night for this. I have a girl at home right now and I don't need to be-"

"Okay, so you can shut up now," He rolls his eyes, "I want to be Octavia's friend."

He checks me out, "not gonna happen." He says expecting me to understand.

"It's not like you can do anything about it. I won't let anything bad happen to her and I'll make sure she's safe at all times." I argue.

"Better luck next time" he says as he glances down at my tiara necklace, "princess". He smirks, proud of the nickname and leaves.

What a jerk.
