Princess mechanic one-shots

Chapter 17

Raven's POV

I watched as Clarke stuck the make-shift blade into Finn. I screamed as I watched the only person who I loved and who was there for me through my bad times take his last breath.

I tried running to him, but Bellamy held onto me. I dropped to the ground and Bell dropped down with me to comfort me. Tears were streaming my face.

I've avoided Clarke for three days. Every time she was looking for me or walked over my way, I headed in a different direction. It's too painful to look at Clarke because what I see is her sticking the blade into Finn. I guess today wasn't my lucky day to avoid Clarke.

"Raven, I'm sorry! They were going to torture him. I had no choice. Please talk to me!" Clarke pleaded. I looked at her with disbelief and anger.

"Had no choice? I gave you that blade to kill the Commander, but instead you killed Finn!" I yelled out. She looked down at her feet and shuffled.

"I couldn't kill her! The grounders would've killed us all!" Clarke said. I scoffed.

"At least we could've fought and Finn would be alive for a while longer. You're nothing! You're pathetic!" I spat at her with tears in my face. Clarke looked at me with hurt in her eyes.

She walked away and left me alone. I went to my tent and cried.

Clarke and I haven't spoken in two weeks. People were starting to talk. Octavia tried talking to me a couple of times, but I told her I was busy. This time I wanted to talk to her.

"Hey, Octavia..... I'm sorry I've been so mean." I apologized to her. She turned and looked at me.

"I'm not the one you should be apologizing to, but I forgive you. Clarke has been devastated since she killed him, but I've seen what the grounders do since I've been dating Lincoln. They would have tortured him." She said. I looked down at my feet and shuffled.

"I guess some part of me refused to believe that. I blamed the wrong person. I have to tell her I'm sorry." I said. Octavia smiled and pat me on the shoulder.

"Good luck finding her. No one has heard from her since your fight a few weeks back." She said. I was shocked when she told me that. I was speechless.

"Hasn't s-she b-been here?" I stuttered out. Octavia shook her head and sighed.

"No. She took off and hasn't returned. You hurt her." Octavia said to me. I felt rage burn in me.

"She hurt me first! I-I'm sorry. All this time I've been in love with her but I've hurt her instead of telling her. I've been hating her for what she did to Finn, but truthfully that made me fall in love with her more!" I cried out. Octavia was shocked. She looked at me.

"Y-you're in love with her?" She asked in surprise. I nodded my head and ran my hand through my hair.

"Yes. For a long time now." I admitted to her. She had a look of happiness and she hugged me.

"Awe, I'm happy to hear you say that, but now I've got to go give a lock of my hair to Abby and Bellamy." She said with a look of uncertainty. I looked at her in surprise.

"Wait! You guys made bets on this?" I asked. She nodded her hair and laughed.

"Yea, everyone did." She waved goodbye to me and left. I shook my head at her and went to look for Clarke. I have a feeling where she is.

I got supplies and went on my way. It took me a half of a days walk to get to the drop ship.

When I got there, I was shocked to see that things were fixed and the area was cleaned up. I knew she'd be here.

"Hello! Clarke? Are you here?" I yelled out to the emptiness. I saw movement inside the drop ship. Clarke walked out. When she saw it was me, she stopped dead in her tracks. I waved to her.

"What are you doing here?" She asked me defensively. I felt a tug at my heart. She looks so beautiful. I went to step closer but she held out her hand.

"I-I came to talk t-to you. I wanted to tell you how sorry I am. When you did that to Finn part of me hated you. I knew what the grounders would do, but I didn't want to believe it. I'm really sorry for hurting you Clarke! I knew you put him out of misery and for that I'm grateful." I apologized to her. I stepped closer and I grabbed her hands. She looked down and shuffled her feet.

"I wanted to save you the pain of watching him suffer. I will let you hate me forever as long as you want because seeing them torture him would've hurt you more." Clarke said. I hugged her and she hugged me back. My heart was beating fast in my chest.

Being this close to Clarke was intoxicating. She smells like berries. I inhaled slowly.

"I love you Clarke. I'm so sorry for hurting you. You were looking out for me and I let my anger get in the way." I said to her. We were stills hugging but she pulled back only a little bit.

"I forgive you Raven. I love you too." She said. I looked in her blue eyes and did what I wanted to do for a long time.

I grabbed her face and smashed our lips together. She wrapped her arms tighter around me. She kissed me back.

"I am in love with you. I have been for a long time now. I let the worst part of me take over." I said to her. She smiled at me and kissed me again.

"I'm in love with you too. Also for a long time." She laughed out. I hugged her tightly.

We spent the rest of the night together kissing and talking. We left to go back to Arkadia the next day. Upon our return Everyone was clapping and cheering for us.

Octavia was smiling and I knew then that she was the one who set the people up to cheer for us.

I smiled at her and looked over toward Clarke. She was talking to her mom and hugged her. I finally felt like I belonged in this messed up world.

"Raven? Are you ok?" Clarke said as she came over to me. I nodded and hugged her.

"For once in my life, I finally found my happy ending. You were the person that was missing from my life. Even though you there, you weren't there in the way I wanted. Now you are and I'm extremely happy." I said to Clarke. She smiled at me.

"Same here Princess." She said and kissed me. My heart beat fast in my chest at the nickname she gave me.

We spent the rest of our life together and conquered any enemy that came our way. She has been the only person I needed in my life. I have her and our family and friends. I'm in my happy place, and I'm happy. A dream come true.
