Cordelia's p.o.v

Last night was a rough one but after tossing and turning for awhile, I finally managed to fall asleep. I woke up feeling better, than days prior, and slightly relaxed.

My mind was still worrying for my brother as it made it well known in my dreams. They weren't nightmares, per say, but more like memories that I'll always cherish with Jasper. As I got up, I noticed Finn was already gone.

I got up and changed before making my way to the drop ship to check on my brother. I hope that Clarke could heal him, her mother being head doctor on the Ark, or at least stabilize him.

I stretched as I walked into the drop ship to see Finn, Monty and Octavia drinking liquor "A bit early for that don't you think?" I say walking over to them.

They were sitting beside my brother who looked to be sleeping "Hey, we might all die soon anyway, so why not?" Finn states offering me the bottle but I shook my head.

"No thanks. I'm an incredibly light weight so I'll stay sober, but I do wish we had coffee though," I say sitting gently on Jasper's cot.

What I want to know is where they got the alcohol from. Monty hasn't made any moonshine or the whole camp would be wasted. Someone must've found it on their way back from saving Jasper.

"So what has happened while I was gone?" Finn asks wondering what went down.

"Well we are hungry. Monty was having trouble contacting the Ark, Octavia was on lockdown which is absurd and Murphy is an absolute dick" I say checking Jasper's bandages while Monty laughed.

"That pretty much sums it up. It's going to take sometime in getting in touch with the Ark, I might have to build a radio from scratch but finding the parts will be difficult," Monty says with a nod.

Finn then told us what happened on the rescue mission. How Jasper was tied to a tree surrounded by traps, then a cougar came out of nowhere but Wells killed it by stealing Bellamy's gun. After they came back and I went to sleep, people where complaining about Jasper groaning in pain.

So Clarke discovered an antibiotic to heal him. They left with Wells to go find it with much success. Monty then told me that Murphy tried to kill Jasper while Clarke was gone and how Bellamy only gave him a day to live.

"If they even think about killing Jasper, I will send them to an early grave. Better yet, I'll ruin their egos faster than the drop ship hit the atmosphere," I declared growing furious at some of the dicks that got sent down here.

They picked the wrong person to mess with.

"Can I have a shot of that?" A hoarse voice said and we turned to look at Jasper who was awake. I hugged him gently so I didn't hurt him.

"Thank god you're ok, don't scare me like that again," I demand and he nods.

"Maybe you should start with the soft stuff," Finn says handing my brother water as I helped him sit up.

I stayed with Jasper for most of the day because I thought that if I left him then he'd just disappear on me. I never want my brother to go through something like what he did, ever again.

Eventually Clarke came in and told me that she'd look after him. She didn't go through all the trouble of saving him to not continue helping him. I'm grateful she fought for the chance of saving him and that she never lost hope that she could. So it took me no effort when thanking her for all that she has done and that if she ever needed a favor, I'd gladly help.

Upon leaving the ship I had the unfortunate luck of walking past Bellamy and his goons. The ridiculous wanna be leader was prancing around with no shirt on, clearly trying to get the attention of the ladies around camp.

How thick can you get?

He is such a player, it's repulsive. You should see the amount of girls that come out of his tent in the run of a day. Why are girls so attracted to him? Yes, he's not bad looking. But his personality is awful as well as his attitude.

It's like the typical teenage girls in movies, that mom used to watch on the Ark, who were always attracted to the bad boy of their school. Girls follow him around like flies and he knows that they want him.

I glared at him as I made my way past and thought I'd get out of there without any interaction but my luck was shit these days.

"Like what you see Princess," he says just as I was passing him which made me stop.

I looked him up and down "What exactly am I supposed to see?" I questioned causing his smirk to drop.

"Burn," Murphy says from besides the cocky boy.

"You think I'm attracted to you Freckles? Not all girls just go for looks you know. Some of us, actually go for personality because that's what defines a person not their looks," I state as he stood there shell shocked.

"Your personality is terrible, you think you're all high and mighty because you're older than everyone. You're very overprotective of your sister thinking that every little thing will hurt her but you're pushing her away by doing that. Most importantly you tried to decide that my brother didn't get to live because of how injured he was, that's low," I continued as a proud began forming.

I wanted to see if he was going to retort or rebuttal about the things that were being said against him but he stayed quite. Probably too shocked to say anything or he didn't want to ruin his ego any further than it already was.

So I didn't stop my rant "How would you like it if I threatened to kill Octavia? You of all people should know the love siblings have for one another, well imagine that sibling being your twin. Having grown up always being by each others side, doing everything together and being so close. Then having that person hurt or taken away from you. It makes you feel lost, broken like there is a part of your heart missing that won't ever be filled. That's how I would've felt if Jasper had died or you killed him and I would've never forgave you,"

I finished my tangent before storming off to my tent, leaving everyone awestruck.

I just stared at the top of the tent until Finn entered the tent causing me to look up. "That was quite the speach you gave back there," he says before walking over to me.

"It needed to be said," I tell him as I sat up.

He smiled over at me before holding a colored pencil out to me.

My eyes widened as I looked at it, haven't seen one in ages as they were scarse on the ark "Where did you get that?" I questioned gently taking it from him.

"Art supplies store," he simply states sitting next to me.

"Nice try space-walker," I say looking at him "but thanks," I say giving him a smile.

"I'll show you tomorrow where I found it," he says before falling asleep.

I put the pencil crayon away where it wouldn't get broken before taking off my boots and laid down on my back next to Finn.

My stomach growled as I laid there, Bellamy and Murphy weren't giving anyone food unless they took their wristband off but Finn, Clarke and I refused because, not only is it was our only connection to the Ark, but to those we left behind.

As I was about to sleep Monty entered my tent, a bunch of food in his arms, he had taken his off but so he could find away to contact the Ark. It was better than having to build a radio from scratch.

"Thought you'd be hungry," he says with a smile and to prove his thought my stomach let out a big growl.

"Thanks Mont," I say as he handed me the food then he said his goodbyes before leaving me to munch away.

After eating my stomach was happy as I laid back down again and fell into a peaceful sleep.......
