Sorry its taken so long to update, Ive had some personal problem I had to deal with and totally forgot about this chapter. I did a little editing to 'Suprises and Understandings' and hope you enjoy this chapter.

AND FYI I ADDED A VIDEO ON THE PREVIOUS CHAPTER

Surprises and Understandings: 

When we brought Atoms body back to camp, everyone was a mess, especially Octavia. She blamed her brother for his death but it was actually mine. It was the middle of the night, Charlotte was sleeping near me in front of the fire, she told me she didn’t want to be alone so I told her she could sleep with me. I sat by the fire, thinking about everything that’s happened in the last few days. First I was stabbed, then sent to Earth, helped a little girl fight her nightmares, and killed someone. I sensed someone sit down next to me, when I looked up I saw Murphy,

“What do you want?” I hissed I wasn’t in the mood to get hit on.

“Whoa, I was just seeing what you were doing out here all alone” I was about to respond when someone interrupted me,

“She’s not alone Murphy” I looked across the fire and saw Bellamy sitting down on a log; I didn’t even notice he was there until now. There was long silence until Murphy cleared his throat; I looked over at him waiting for him to say something,

“Well…um…goodnight then” I nodded and looked back at the fire,

“Your good with kids aren’t you?” I jumped when and looked over at Bellamy totally forgetting he was there,

“What? Sorry”

“Your good with kids, aren’t you?” he repeated his question and motioned to Charlotte sleeping on the floor next to me,

“What? Oh, yea, I had a younger brother; I guess you could say he brought the kid out in me.” It was silent for a while,

“I’m sorry” I looked up at Bellamy confused,

“Sorry for what?”

“For losing your brother, I don’t know what I would do if I lost Octavia” I nodded my head understandingly,

“I don’t know what I’d do either” I whispered to myself, not expecting him to hear me.

“What do you mean?” I looked up at Bellamy and took a deep breathe, this was going to be a long night,

“After my parents were floated, I went a little out of control, but when one of the guards told me the new that my brother was floated with them, I broke down and attacked the guard. They made me share a cell with Octavia, she was about sixteen I think and I was seventeen. She soon became my best friend after a few months of being together,” I chuckled remembering the moments we shared in that cell, “It was getting closer and closer to my eighteenth birthday, three months before I was supposed to be floated a guard came in asking for Octavia.”  I remembered the day too well,

“Got any twos?” Octavia and I were playing Go Fish when all of a sudden a guard burst through the door,
