A/N

I made the picture at the top myself, give credit if reposted. It describes what happened an hour ago when I was searching for a Flarke pic for the cover of Queen. Also read the author's note at the end.

Chapter 21: Finn

"How are you feeling?" I ask Clarke. She's bent over on the ground and retching.

"Like Bellamy and Raven punched me in the stomach, mentally and physically," she says. "But Raven has every right to be jealous: I stole her man and he knocked me up."

"You didn't steal me, I stole you."

"Yeah, you stole my virginity."

I laugh. "I like this sassy Clarke. It's a different side of you that makes me laugh."

"Sassy Clarke only comes out when she needs to make a point or is annoyed. You might not like Sassy Clarke when I start on Bellamy again."

"Again?" I grab her shoulders so she faces me.

"He hasn't seen the last of Sassy Clarke. And neither have you." She kisses my lips quickly then disappears into the house.

I follow her, making sure my footsteps are soundless. She's left the door open at the front but there isn't much light inside the house. The only thing I can see are muddy footprints in a trail leading to the bedroom.

"Clarke? You're not very good at hiding - there are footprints leading to where you are." I open the bedroom door and see nothing. Maybe she tricked me... Or not. There's a lump under the covers on the bed, it must be her. "I found you!" I jump on top of her and hear a scream, but it doesn't sound like Clarke. More like...

Raven.

"Why did you jump on me?" she asks, brushing her familiar ponytail from her face.

"I thought you were Clarke. Why were you in my bed?"

"How else would I know what you were doing?"

I sigh. "Where's Clarke?"

"How do I know?"

"Well, I'm going to find her. Get out of my house."

I leave without another word. I don't want to hear what Raven has to say, I've had enough.

The sun has begun to set, colours of orange, pink and purple dancing on the clouds. In the warm glow I find Clarke's face behind the front door; she was there all this time?

"Who's in the bedroom?" she asks timidly, like she's scared about what's in there.

"Raven was spying on us. She hid under the covers and I jumped on her thinking it was you. She better clean up these tracks or I'll do it with her face."

"Okay, Sassy Clarke is coming out." Her mood immediately changes and she storms into the bedroom. I peek through a gap in the door to see what's going on, and to be honest, I can hear it just as well if I was in the Ark.

"You have no right to be in our house!" Clarke shouts. "This is an invasion of our privacy!"

"And we're back to shouting." Raven sighs. "You suddenly think that just because you're with Finn that means you can do whatever you want, but I've known Finn for way longer than you and that's never gonna change. Just because you've been nicknamed Princess doesn't mean you have to act like one. You're just the same as the rest of us - a criminal, an expendable criminal."

"I know I'm not better than everyone else, but neither are you. Can't you just accept the fact that me and Finn are in love? I'm sorry you and Finn had to end."

Raven stands up. "No you're not." She slaps Clarke across the face, hard. She struts out the bedroom, pushing past me and out front door. I walk over to Clarke and take her face in my hands to inspect her cheek. There's a red hand-mark on her left cheek and there's a few tears in her eyes.

"Let me get something cold for that," I say.

"I'm fine, it's just a slap, nothing bad." A small tear spills onto her cheek as she turns away.

"Then why are you crying if it's not bad?"

"Because it hurts! People hurt, Finn."

"I'm not stupid, I know that. You're acting like you're on your fucking period!"

"I'm pregnant! How can I be on my fucking period?"

"Well, maybe I didn't know that because I'm stupid."

"Did I ever call you stupid? God, you're acting like it!"

"You're so bipolar with me - one minute you're happy Clarke, and the next you're shouting at me."

"Look, I'm sorry. I don't want to be doing this to you." She walks into my arms.

I accept her hug. "But really, are you actually on your period?"

She looks up at me with a cold stare. "Yes! Yes, I am! $10,000 to the man with the long hair!"

"Am I still stupid?"

She takes a moment to decide and then hugs me tighter.

"Maybe."
