My Best Friends Brother -Bellarke

3.

I can hear the music before I see it. By the time we pull up to the large house, I can feel it. It's so loud, it pulses through me and this makes me even more nervous. Octavia must notice my nervousness because she links her arm in mine and nods reassuringly. By the time we got there, the party was in full fury. As we enter, the whoops and hollers of drunk teenagers enter my ears and there are people making out and dancing in such a way I didn't think was humanly possible. We soon spot Monty and Jasper and make our way towards them. They are standing with their backs against the wall like they are trying to blend in.

"Damn! You two clean up well!" Jasper exclaims and we smile. I continue talking to them for a while before I realize Octavia is gone.

"Where did I Octavia go?" I yell over the music.

"I'm not sure. She made eyes with this one guy and disappeared" Monty yells back. Jasper is conveniently looking at his phone at this point and 'not paying attention'.

"Ugh. I better go find her." Im nervous to be alone in this crowd but I'm even more nervous that Octavia slipped off with a random guy. The house is like a maze and I don't spot her anywhere. I decide to check the kitchen. I walk in and there are a lot of people in there as well. I'm standing in the doorway, searching, when I feel an arm sling over my shoulder. It frightens me and I look to see who it is. It is none other than Finn. He is leaning all of his weight on me and I stumble a little.

He grins wildly and says, "look who I found. Miss Clarke Griffin herself." I smile shyly as he looks me up and down. "You look great Clarke."

"Thanks Finn" I reply and I can smell the alcohol on his breath. He is VERY drunk.

He grabs my arm and drags me towards the living room where all the dancing is going on. "Come on let's dance!"

I resist because I don't really do the whole highschool type dancing thing but he still drags me. We enter the clump and the temperature rises about 20 degrees from all the warm bodies going ham. Before I know it, Finn is behind me and grabs me hips and pulls them into him and starts swaying. It was the most awkward experience ever. Soon I start sweating so I tell him I need to get a drink but he still decides to follow. He's like a little puppy when he's drunk I decide. I finally reach the outskirts of the clump and lean back against the wall, breathing heavily. I look up and Finn is again dangerously close to my face again but this time he does kiss me. He pins me against the wall with his body. I try to push away but he doesn't let me. I feel his hands roam down my body and land on my butt and that I'm definitely not okay with.

"Finn please stop" I say against his mouth as he continues trying to kiss me. I feel tears starting to well in my eyes as I try to squirm out of his grip. It's not use. He's too strong for me and I feel a tear roll down my cheek as I plead for him to stop.

All of a sudden I feel his weight removed from me and I see him fly and hit the ground. I can't make sense of what is going on.

"She said get the hell away from her." An angry voice yells at Finn who is lying stunned on the floor. My savior turns to me and I immediately recognize who it is. Bellamy. Octavia's older brother. That reminds me that I have no idea where Octavia is. I start feeling nauseas between that fact and the fact that I don't even know what just happened. Why is Bellamy even here? He grabs my arm and I don't resist. He leads me outside and I greedily breath in the cold, clean air.

"Are you okay, Clarke?"he asks once we sit down on the steps outside.

"How do you know my name?" I question him because I've only seen him once and he didn't even look at me.

"Uh... Octavia must have mentioned it. But who was that guy? What happened?" He sure has a lot of questions.

"That was Finn. He was drunk and I d-" I start babbling, still upset about what happened.

"Oh god. I've heard about Finn. Stupid kid. Has a girlfriend too." He shakes his head angrily. My jaw drops at the last sentence. I know I'm no relationship expert but he was flirting with me all day and with what just happened.... Let's just say I feel very bad for his girlfriend.

I feel another tear roll down my cheek and I roughly wipe it away but more only follow. Bellamy hands me a handkerchief and I smile at him.

"I see Octavia got to you" I must look confused because he continues with saying "your makeup I mean."

I laugh slightly and say, "I must look a wreck." I try and pat down my hair that must look like I just got in a street fight.

He shakes his head. "No you look-" he's cut off when he group of boys run out. They must know Bellamy because they swarm around him. I quickly try and fix my makeup with the handkerchief before the boys turn to me. One boy starts walking towards me and Bellamy steps in front of him. "This is my sisters friend." He says in a menacing voice, emphasizing 'sister'. The boy puts up his hands in surrender and steps back.

Another boy shouts out "oh man your sister is so ho-" but he can't continue because Bellamy interrupts him.

"My sister is WHAT?" He practically growls out. The boys then realize it is probably best that they go back inside which I am grateful for.

Once they are gone I figure it is the best time to break the news to Bellamy. "About Octavia..."I say lowly. He whips around towards me impelling me to continue. "She kinda disappeared with a guy at the beginning of the night" I wring my hands nervously. He slaps his hands over his face and mumble something about why does she do this to him and he rushes inside. I follow close behind but not close enough. I feel a hand grab my arm and my whole body goes ice cold. I know exactly who it is.

"FINN GET AWAY FROM ME" I yell as I whip around towards him and he stumbles back.

This doesn't scare him away enough though because he keeps walking towards me. "Chill out! I just came to apologize."

I feel someone come up behind me.
"I swear. You even come close to her again, I will knock you out." Just from that I can hear the anger in Bellamy's voice. Bellamy then grabs me by the shoulders and pulls me in front of him so he can make sure he sees me at all times and leads me through the crowd. We make it upstairs. Bellamy knocks open a door to reveal a shirtless girl and guy. They angrily yell at him to shut the door and he quickly does. He knocks open the next door and there is Octavia straddling a boy whilst making out. I can already tell this is going to go down in flames. I can see the fury in Bellamy's eyes as he rushes in. Octavia and the guy look equally stunned as Bellamy grabs Octavia's hand and pulls her out of the room.

Octavia manages to yell, "Bye Lincoln! Call me!" As she is yanked.

Bellamy responds with, "like hell you are calling him. He's like twice your age!"

Octavia only rolls her eyes. "Lincoln is a senior like you Bell!" Bellamy mutters something about how that's still too old and he leads the both us by the arm out of the house.

Once we are in the car Octavia gives a lame, "well Bellamy... This is Clarke" she giggles a bit and Bellamy seems beyond annoyed.

"Yeah I met her already when I had to save her from getting assaulted by that idiot Finn" his face stays stone hard and tense but the shock in Octavia's face is apparent. I shake my head not wanting to explain.

We arrive at my house finally and I hop out of the car, glad to be able to rip off this dress. I scrub off as much makeup as possible before crawling into bed and being overwhelmed by sleep.
