CLARKES POV

"¡Hola!" Octavia greets me as she climbs through my bedroom window.

"How's Lincoln?" I ask, climbing onto my bed to and she immediately blushes.

"He's.....good," she answers, her face tinted a bright pink. I haven't seen Octavia for a while because she's been spending most of her time with Lincoln.

"And Bellamy?"

"He seems happier than he's usually been. It's refreshing to see him smile as oppose to him pulling off that annoying smirk, you know?"

Bellamy has been smiling more lately. Genuine smiles. It makes me smile just thinking about him smiling. I look down so Octavia doesn't notice.

"You've got it bad," she laughs. I snap my head up with a scowl. Dang it.

"What? Noo," I lie. Okay, so maybe I might like Bellamy. It doesn't matter, he probably doesn't even like me back.......whatever.

"Surrrre..." Octavia chuckles again. She can always see right through me. "Anyways, Lincoln promposed to me today...." she blushes.

"Oooooo," I laugh, readjusting myself on my bed to get closer to Octavia's body.

"Yeah.....we went out to the movies to see It and I jumped at one point when I realized there was a freaking guy in a clown costume hovering over us. Turns out, the clown was holding a sign that said "prom with me?" and it took me a whole minute to realize that I was in smirking Lincolns arms because I was so scared and I ended up saying yes to my guy."

"Too cute, you guys. He loves you." I say.

"I love him, too. I see him in my future..." she smiles and blushes at the thought.

"I see my future too, O," she shoots me an interested look, "Don't worry, not with a guy haha, I already have my future cats picked out," I confirm.

"Shut up," she chucks a pillow at my face, "where'd your self-esteem go, girl?" Our conversation ends when I get a call from Bellamy.

Yay.

"Bell?" I answer the phone smiling and Octavia rolls her eyes.

"Who the hell is this," a feminine voice on the other line asks.

"Umm....who is this?" I ask, confused.

"Echo. Bellamys girlfriend?" she says as if I should know who she is and her response shuts me up.

"Where is Bellamy right now?" I ask her and Octavia scrunched her eyebrows in confusion.

"He's in the shower. We just finished a round," she says and I slowly feel my heart break. Round? What the fuck does that mean? "So are you going to answer me? Who are you?" she says somewhat desperately.

"It doesn't matter. Don't tell him I called," I suggest.

"Wasn't planning on it," she says and I hang up.

Sobbing.

Now I realize that I actually have feelings for Bellamy Blake.
