My eyes fluttered open as I began to yawn. I looked around to see that I was in Bellamy's tent. I tried to get up, but an arm was holding me down. I looked to see Bellamy. I raised my hand to brush the hair out of his peaceful face. His face scrunched up a little as he woke up. He pulled my small frame closer to him.

"What is with you, and pulling me close?" I ask laughing, and arched my back a little.

"I like you close to me." He mutters in my neck. He leaves light kisses, making my skin tingle, and my breath hitch. "We never got to finish last night." He says.

"Not now." I giggle. He groaned a little, but stopped. He entangled our hands together. "I thought we were sitting my the fire last night?" I asked, remembering last night's events.

"You fell asleep, so I carried you in here." He replied.

"Thank you." I say to him. He just smiled.

"Bellamy. Get up. We have to get ready for uni- oh. Oh." Clarke says rushing into Bellamy's tent.

"Clarke." I groaned.

"Sorry. Sorry. But we need you both out here." She puts her hands up in surrender before going back out.

"Why is she the one always catching us together?" I ask him, playing with his hands. He let out a laugh. "Come on." I say, getting up and walking out. The bright light temporarily blinds me. Bellamy comes out a second later, puts his hands on my hips and led me over to where everyone was crowded over.

"My friends, this is a historic Unity Day. Every year, we mark the moment our ancestors of the twelve stations joined to form The Ark, but this is the last time we do so while abroad her. Next year, on the ground." Jaha says.

"Right. After we did all the work." I scoffed.

"Someone shut him up." Someone yells from the back.

"Shut up. No ones forcing you to watch." Raven mutters.

"For ninety-seven years, we have eked out an existence, hoping that someday, our descendants would return to earth." Jaha continues.

"Whoo! Yeah! Monty strikes again! Hey! Call this batch Unity Juice!" Jasper yells, stepping out of his tent, with Monty who was holding the moonshine. I gasped and turned to Bellamy.

"This is our chance to be free. To let go." I say to him.

"You go ahead." He tells me. I frowned a little bit.

"It won't even the same. Have one drink with me." I pleaded. He lets out a sigh. I smile largely, and we make our way to Monty.

"To our sons and daughters on earth, listening to this message, we will see you soon. The first exodus ship will launch in under sixty hours, carrying you the reinforcements that you need, so stay strong. Help is on the way." Is the last thing I hear from Jaha.

I took the cup of moonshine from Monty and drank it in one quick gulp. I looked at Bellamy to see that he was looking at me. I gave him a weird look.

"What?" I ask. He shakes his head smiling at me. Bellamy leads me to a log and sat us both down. We sat in silence and watched everyone around us, they seemed to be having a good time.

"Hey, the comms are still dead. They cut out during the pageant." Clarke says, walking up to us.

"Best unity day ever." I mutter.

"Do you really think now is a good time to be having a party? I mean, the grounder is out there." Clarke asks worriedly.

"The grounder won't hurt us. Well not Octavia and I that's for sure." I say quietly.
