Chapter 5: twilights last gleaming

The kiss with Bellamy was just beginning as things began to get heated as Rowan intensified the kiss before Bellamy broke the kiss so that he could lead her back into camp so that they could safely carry on on with what they were doing as they headed into his tent since he knew that they would have the most privacy for whatever they wanted to do next, Bellamy was most too highly aware of the fact that Rowan was that bit you get than he was since he was 23 years old while she was 18 in a few months which is why he wanted to take things at her own pace. Unfortunately Rowan's pace seemed to be speeding as were her emotions from everything that had happened over the last day as she gently pushed him onto the makeshift bed before straddling him and resumed the kissing as she pushed her hair to one side as Bellamy realised that he was going to have to be the one to stop this before she did something she would regret

" hey hey... slow down for a moment, just hold up" Bellamy said as he gently began to push her away as they stopped kissing as she straight up straight although still straddling him

" what? What's wrong?" Rowan said pushing her hair back from falling on her face as she wondered why the guy in this relationship was the one to be stopping them from having sex

" nothing, I just think that you should stop and think about this before something happens that you can't take back" he said not wanting her to do anything that she was going to regret

" what do you mean? Wait do you not want to do this? Do you not want me?" She said as she scrambled off of him almost self conscious all of a sudden as she tried to work all of this out

" of course I want you, geez I want you more than I've ever wanted anyone before but I just want to make sure that you're doing this for the right reasons" he said gently cupping her face

" you mean you think that I'm doing this because everything going on? Oh Bell, trust me when I say that I don't just go around kissing people for the sake of it" she said realising he was scared

" I know you don't but I know that you're going through a lot and honestly... I don't to ruin whatever this thing between us is" he said talking her hand in his as he play with her fingers

"I get that...you know you can actually be a sweet guy when you want to be" she said knowing that not everyone got to see that side of him especially with everything going around them

" well you make it easier than the others do... lie with me?" Bellamy asked in a small vulnerable voice as he wondered if she would simply go back to how things were before they kissed

" thought you would never ask" Rowan said as she waited until he had lay down on the makeshift bed from laying on her stomach and snuggled into his side as he played with her hair

" so tell me about your sister, Raven? What was she like? Were you two close?" Bellamy said wanting to know about this part of her life as he thought about his own childhood with Octavia

" Raven is a genius in her own way, she's a zero g mechanic. I look a lot like her between the skin colour and dark hair buts she's taller and skinner, she was my best friend" she said softly

" hey you're beautiful too even if you are short, it just makes things more interesting" he said thinking about how they would have fun exploring ways to even the playing field height wise

" you know when I was four and Raven was six, she pushed this boy down for making fun of my hair. Later she told me who I was and that she was always to be there for me" she said sadly

" it must have been hard to keep that a secret from your dad all those" he said since they both knew that her dad would have followed the law of the Ark and imprisoned her for years
