Killer // Bellamy Blake (1)

XII

Bellamy scrambled up the ramp with Delaney right behind him. When they got up Bellamy coughed, inhaling smoke. Delaney covered her nose as they looked through the new window in the dropship. Delaney picked up the gun.

"Take the shot."

"No, it's a waste of a bullet. The grounders'll take care of Murphy."

Bellamy turned to Delaney, studying her face. He ran a hand through his hair as he looked back out the window and then back to the girl.

"We need to go find Finn and Clarke. You and me. We can't risk anyone else. We can find them. Between your lay of the land and my aim-"

"Bellamy-"

"Raven can lead everyone as they keep building up out defenses. We can beat this, together."

Delaney wrapped her arms around Bellamy's chest, hugging him tightly. Her eyes were closed and she breathes him in, not wanting to let him go. Bellamy hugged her back. Letting out a deep, stressed breath. He rested his chin on the top of her head.

"I thought he was going to kill you." Delaney breathed out into his chest.

"Can I thank you yet? For saving my life?" Bellamy pulled away from her.

"How many times has it been now? The acid fog, Drax, Murphy-"

Bellamy cut her off, pressing his lips to her. Delaney practically melted in his arms, her eyes fluttering closed as she smiled into the kiss. She followed his lead, kissing him back until he pulled away.

"I think I'll count the infection, too," Bellamy smirked.

"Then I deserve three more thank-you's, Bellamy."

Bellamy leaned in to kiss her again as shouting started outside. The two jumped apart, Bellamy sliding down the ladder. Delaney followed, joining him outside the dropship.

The gunners were on the wall, tracking something beyond it. The one closest to the gate - Drew - put his hand up to stop everyone from firing.

"It's Clarke and Finn! Open the gate!"

Bellamy came to a stop in the middle of the yard, the rest of the 100 gathering around as the gates slowly fell open. Clarke and Finn ran in, slowing to a stop near Bellamy as they caught their breath.

"We heard an explosion, what happened?" Clarke asked as she took in deep breaths.

"Murphy happened."

"Where's Monty?" Jasper asked, pushing past Bellamy.

"Wait, Monty-"

"Clarke, we need to leave, now!" Finn cut her off. Everyone was talking at once. Delaney put two fingers in her mouth, whistling to get everyone's attention.

"Alright, everybody calm down." Bellamy raised a hand in the air to help people stop worrying.

"We all need to leave. There's an army of grounders, unlike anything we've ever seen coming towards us right now."

"We need to pack what we can and run," Clarke added, piggybacking off of Finn.

"Like hell we do!" Bellamy wrinkles his nose at them. "We've been preparing for this moment-"

"We aren't prepared, Bellamy." Delaney cut in.

"And they aren't here yet. We still have time to get ready. Besides, where would we be safer than behind these walls we made ourselves?"

"There's an ocean-"

"Luna can't house this many people." Delaney cut in, shaking her head. She knew exactly what Finn was trying to say. She and Lincoln always used Luna as an escape plan if they ever needed it.
