           The next few days Clarke found herself working harder to hide herself from Bellamy. She avoided him at every turn. If she saw him first coming down the hallway Clarke made an effort to slip away down another passage or even hiding in an air vent, which she would never do again considering how gross and muggy it felt inside there. The only time Clarke saw Bellamy was when it was time for lunch, the only meal they were all allowed to have. She would make sure everyone got their rations and then she would leave back to her apartment with her pack of protein paste.
           Clarke made her way down the grey halls. It'd only been about a month and here she was already tired of seeing the same old colors. Pushing the Earth from her thoughts, because it would be five years before she saw it again, she made her way to check on the farm. As she walked through the door Clarke found that she was not alone. Rested against the wall was Raven, her shirt off but she was dressed in everything else as she very passionately kissed Murphy who's shirt was also off.

"Oh!" Clarke said loudly not meaning to.

Raven and Murphy pulled away from one another, and they both just stood there staring at Clarke as they panted.

"Clarke. ." Raven managed out. "It's- um I- I was showing Murphy how to connect some wires."

Clarke giggled. "Oh yeah? With your lips? And with your clothes off?"

Raven looked down at her shirtless torso, that was covered with just her bra. She quickly slipped her t-shirt on.  "Please don't tell anyone." Raven begged.

Clarke nodded. "I wont, but what you're doing isnt fair to Emori."

Raven nodded, while Murphy looked more guilty. His brain working things out.

"Shes right John, Emori deserves to know you don't feel the same about her anymore."

Murphy nodded. "I know. . But I'm kind of scared of that woman."

"Well maybe it's not such a good idea to be cheating on her then. Im sure she'd be more angry you cheated then if you were to just leave her." Clarke answered.

Murphy chuckled. "Yeah guess you're right." He said slipping his shirt on.

Just as Clarke went to speak again the door opened and silence struck the farm. Bellamy stood there staring intently at Clarke. "Why have you been avoiding me?"

Clarke's eyes widened. "Im not."

"Yes you are. Cut the crap Clarke. I want to know what I did to make you so angry."

Clarke let out a sigh and walked towards Bellamy as she grabbed his hand and pulled him along with her. Leaving Raven and Murphy alone in the farm yet again, Clarke dragged Bellamy to her apartment without speaking a single word to him. As she walked him inside she let out yet another sigh.

"I'm not mad at you. I've just been going through something extremely personal. Realizing a lot of things I should have said or done."

Bellamy shrugged. "Please talk to me. I can't stand you not talking to me. I need you."

Clarke nodded. "I can't Bellamy. . I can't talk to you about this."

Bellamy's brows furrowed, his fists tightened and he let out a loud huff. "Why not! I thought you needed me Clarke! I thought I was your friend! You've been avoiding me! Not talking to m-"

"Because I'm in love with you. ." Clarke cut him off.

Bellamy's heavy breaths slowed and he paused to stare down at her. Clarke could feel the tears forming in her eyes.

"I love you, and you slept with another woman. It hurt Bellamy. It hurt to see that." Clarke said the tears now dripping down her cheeks.

"Clarke I love you too. I didn't think you did."

"Of course I do. I've loved you for the past six months Bellamy. But I couldn't lose you. So I had to hide my feelings, bury them." Clarke replied.

Bellamy smiled and stepped forward trying to wrap his arms around Clarke, but she pushed him away. She didn't want to hug him, she didn't want to be hurt again. But Bellamys strong arms pulled her against him anyways and she fell against his chest as she started to cry even more than she already was.

"Clarke I didn't mean to hurt you. I didn't know you loved me and I was trying to move on." Bellamy said softly.

Clarke gently pulled away looking up at him. She wanted to say something, but before she could Bellamy's lips were pressed against hers. His lips slightly dry, she didn't mind because this is what she wanted for a long time. She wanted Bellamy to hold her, and kiss her. She and Bellamy have been through so much together. They were always so close and that was part of the reason Clarke had left, part of the reason she fell for Lexa because she was running away from the feelings she had for Bellamy, but she wasn't doing that any longer. She was never going to let Bellamy slip away. Clarke finally felt complete.
