~Clarke's POV~
   "So what is exactly going on with you and Bellamy?" Finn asked and crossed his arms.
   "I don't know what you're talking about," I commented and didn't meet his eyes.
   "Don't play dumb Clarke. I see you guys sneaking glances, touching each other every opportunity. Hell, even one night I saw you guys head out into the forest. I even seen you guys hold hands and leave each other's rooms every morning," he stated.
   "What?"
   "There you go again. Clarke, you can't hide it from me. I see that you stomach has gotten bigger too. Tell me Clarke, did he force you? Threaten you?"
   "He didn't do anything," I said and curled up into a ball.

~Bellamy's POV~
   "I swear, if he doesn't get here soon..." I started.
   "Calm down, lover boy," Roan's voice sounded from the mouth of the cave. I turned and crossed my arms.
   "Took you long enough."
   "Had to make sure Clarke was ok before I left. Listen, I can get us into the city through a tunnel. Then once we get on the other side we have to climb to the floor above. We get Clarke and leave the same way," he said and Kane nodded.
   "What are we waiting for? Let's get Clarke back," I said and we headed to the tunnel Roan was taking about.

~Clarke's POV~
   "Stay away!" I yelled and slapped Finn's hand away. I stood up and push myself against the wall. He clenched his fist and next thing I feel is pain. My head feels like it's about to explode. I fall to the floor. Barely conscious, I see 3 figures rush in. Two standing outside the door.
   "You're dead," I head a voice that sounded like Bellamy's and I hear a loud thud. Two figures fell to the ground and one began to punch the other. I was able to make out Roan and Lincoln pulling Bellamy off of Finn.
   "Make sure Clarke is ok, Bellamy. We'll take care of him," Lincoln said and Bellamy nodded.
   "Hey, Clarke," he said and knelt next to me. I nodded and leaned against him. "Where did he hit you?" I pointed to my right cheek. He turned my head to see the small amount of blood oozing out of a cut.
   "Bellamy? What's going on?" I managed.
   "I'm getting you out of here. How is the baby?" He said and lightly placed his hand on my stomach.
   "It's ok."
   "Good. Now let's go home," he said and picked me up bridal style.

~Bellamy's POV~
   I turned with Clarke in my arms to see Roan and Lincoln holding Finn down as Kane zapped him, leaving him passed out.
   "Let's go," Kane said and he continued to the tunnel. Once we got to where we needed to climb down a level, we paused.
   "How do we get Clarke down?" I asked.
   "With this," Octavia said and held up a rope. We tied it around her back and legs and made sure the makeshift harness was stable. I climbed down the ladder and waited as Lincoln, Roan, and Kane lowered Clarke down. After I got a hold of Clarke, the others followed.
