Force of gravity. (Bellarke fanfiction story.)

The little girl.

Hey guys! So I will be returning back to third person for a while, unless I do another chapter where I need to focus on a certain persons point of view. Enjoy!

After Bellamy and Clarke are done splashing each other in the water, they start to head back inside.
"I totally won," Clarke argues. Bellamy laughs and looks down at Clarke.
"Believe what you want, Princess."
They smile, and then run into Alex and Murphy at the door. When the four of them walk in, all eyes are on them.
"What were you guys doing out there?" Octavia asks.
"Well, Princess decided to push me into the water so, I had to push back." Bellamy laughs.
"Interesting." Harper says sipping her drink.
"And how about you Alex and Murphy?" Raven asks.
"Well, uh, we were um," Alex stutters.
"We were walking the beach," Murphy says.
"Huh. So did you both fall into the sand?" Monty asks.
"What?" Murphy says confused.
"You both have lots of sand in your hair," Monty responds. Everyone laughs, and Raven fakes a smile.
"You got us." Alex smiles. Murphy reaches down and grabs Alex's hand.
"So, Bellamy and Clarke. Is that what you were doing too?" Harper laughs.
"No, no, no." Clarke says laughing. "We are just friends."
Bellamy laughs, even though he knew that they could never be just friends. Just then, there is a knock on the door, and a brown haired boy welcomes himself in.
"Jasper!" Everyone yells as they run up to him, making a big group hug. Clarke stays back, confused. Everyone breaks from the hug after a minute.
"Who are you?" Jasper asks, looking at Clarke.
"My name is Clarke Griffin, I'm their new roommate," Clarke says holding out her hand.
"I'm Jasper Jordan," Jasper says shaking Clarke's hand.
"Clarke, he is also one of our good friends, and he lives right next door. He's been on a vacation for about a month." Bellamy says.
"Well, it's nice to meet you. Where did you go?" Clarke asks.
"I went to California. Not even close to being as fun as it is with you guys." Jasper laughs. Everyone talks until it is early in the morning, Jasper shares his California adventure stories, and they relive past memories.
"Alright guys, I think it's about time I head out," Jasper says.
"Well it was nice to see you, stop by tomorrow, okay?" Raven says.
"Okay. Bye guys!" Jasper exits.
"I think it's about time for me to go to bed, I have an early shift tomorrow," Clarke stands up and heads for the stairs, "Night everyone."
                           THE NEXT DAY
Clarke returns back from her shift, barging through the door. She slams her bag onto the counter and then runs up the stairs.
"What was that about?" Alex asks.
"I have no idea." says Murphy.
"I'm going to go check on her," Bellamy says, standing up. Murphy and Alex look at each other and smirk. Bellamy walks up the stairs and knocks on the door.
"Clarke? It's me. Are you okay?"
"Go away. I don't want to talk to anyone right now." Clarke sniffles through the door. Bellamy doesn't listen, and kicks open the locked door. When he walks in, he sees Clarke on her bed with a pillow in her lap, her head buried in the pillow, crying.
"Clarke, what's wrong?" Bellamy asks. He makes his way over to Clarke and sits on the bed, putting his hand on her back. Clarke looks up at Bellamy and speaks.
"I had a twelve year old girl in surgery today. She had severe internal bleeding. I promised her that I wouldn't let her die. She was so scared, Bellamy." Clarke takes a breath. Bellamy puts his arm around Clarke.
"I promised her. And I broke that promise. She begged me over and over, to save her. And I couldn't do it. I couldn't save her. I killed a little girl." Clarke says, bawling her eyes out.
"It's not your fault, Clarke. You did everything you could."
"And I still couldn't save her" Clarke responds, wiping her eyes.
"If you need forgiveness, I'll give that to you. Okay, Clarke? You're forgiven." Bellamy says, wiping away Clarke's tears. Clarke looks into Bellamy's eyes and smiles.
"Thanks, Bellamy. But you don't have to comfort me."
"Yes I do, princess."
Clarke and Bellamy lay together for a while on her bed, Clarke falling asleep on Bellamy's chest. While Clarke and Bellamy are upstairs, downstairs Raven is planning a discussion with Murphy.
"Okay guys, I'm going to run to McDonald's quickly cause none of you assholes wanna make me dinner." Alex says grabbing her keys.
"Get me a number 7" Murphy says.
"Okay, do you want anything, Raven?"
"No, I'm fine."
"Okay I will be back."
Alex exits and Raven sits next to Murphy.
"Can we talk?" Raven asks.
"Yeah sure, what about?"
"You and Alex." Raven says.
"What about me and Alex?"
"Am I being to subtle, Murphy? I'm in love with you. And I know you feel something too."
Murphy sits there in silence with his eyes wide open.
"You're in love with me?" Murphy asks.
"Of course I am. And you picked her over me."
"I had no idea." Murphy says.
"Leave her."
"What?"
"Break up with her!"
"I can't just do that."
"Why not?"
"Because I'm in love with her too." Murphy says.
"Too?" Raven asks.
"What do you mean 'too?'"
"You said your in love with her too. So you love me?"
"I- uh- I'm-" Murphy stutters. Monty walks down and opens the fridge which startles Murphy and Raven.
"Why do we have no fucking food, ever." Monty complains.
"Alex just ran to McDonald's." Raven says.
"Ah, fuck yah. Call her and tell her I want a large fry." Monty says, and then disappears up the stairs. There is an awkward silence between Murphy and Raven.
"Think about it," Raven says, going up the stairs.

                     THE NEXT MORNING
Clarke wakes up on Bellamy's chest. She feels his chest move up and down slowly. And his hot breath is on Clarke's neck. She sits up and rubs her eyes.
"Hey." Bellamy says, his voice cracking.
"Hey." Clarke says, smiling. "Thank you for last night."
"Anytime, Princess." Bellamy sits up smiling. Alex passes the room, peering in.
"Oh my god. Oh my god!" Alex screams. She starts running down the stairs into the kitchen and living room.
"GUYS BELLARKE HAS HAPPENED!" Alex screams.
"WHAT!" Harper yells jumping out of her seat.
"You all owe me $50." Murphy smiles.
"THEY'RE SLEEPING IN THE SAME BED!" Alex says.
"I NEED TO SEE THIS!" Everyone pushes through each other up the stairs and runs into Clarke's room. Bellamy and Clarke look up at everyone. Downstairs, the front door slams open.
"I HEARD SOMEONE SCREAMING BELLARKE?" Jasper says running up the stairs. He peers into the room where Bellamy and Clarke are laughing and rolling their eyes.
"Oh my god. It's everything I've wanted and more." Jasper says tearing up.
"You barely even know me yet." Clarke laughs.
"Yes, and that says how much I ship bellarke!" Jasper says.
"We were talking last night and we must've fallen asleep, okay? It's not a big deal." Bellamy says. He thinks deep down, that it was actually a really big deal, because that was one of the best nights he has had in a long time.
