A/N Sorry if the beer pong isn't accurate, I've never played so I don't really know how it's played.There's the song Clarke will sing later on.
Clarke P.O.V
We entered the house, and there were people everywhere. Some where dancing others were standing around drinking something and talking, and some where having hard core make out sessions. Camilo walked closely with me, we both weren't party people. We walked to the snack table, and served ourselves what looked like punch. We took a drink at the same time and instantly spit it out.
"That's not punch ." Camilo states.
"Nope it's not." I said, and laughed a bit Camilo smiled too. Camilo grabbed a chip and ate it. Then we walked around randomly until we bumped into Monty and Jasper. They had grins on there faces.
"Hey guys, you didn't happen to have some of that punch did you?" I asked.
Monty spoke."Well I'm the one who put the moonshine in it, so yes we did." I looked at him surprised.
"What? It was Miller's idea." He said.
Jasper laughed."Too bad he doesn't know how strong your moonshine is. Miller's already had two cups and he's going for his third." I turned and saw Miller going for another cup of punch. Surprisingly he didn't have a camera in hand. I walked over to him and left Camilo talking or more like listening to Monty and Jasper.
"Hey Miller." I greeted, earning his attention.
"Sup Clarke. Can I help you with something?"He said.
"Nothing really, I just wanted to talk. It's been a long time since we actually talked, you know." I told him and he nodded.
"Yeah it has been. So are you having fun?" He asked.
"Yeah, but you do know that what your drinking has Monty's moonshine right, and that it is really strong." I told him.
He smiled."Doesn't feel strong, I still don't feel drunk."
"Do you want to get drunk?" I asked curiously.
"To be honest, yes." He said.
"Why?"
"Because there' said girl here that I like and any second now she will be kissing or making out with her boyfriend. If I get drunk I'll momentarily forget, and just have fun." He answered. I didn't know what to say. That had to suck.
"I'm sorry. But drinking is not the answer, try hanging with your friends maybe they'll get your mind off her." I said.
"The problems is that she's my friend, and her boyfriend is my friend. Plus she's always around." He told me. That was terrible. If he really liked this girl, he must be hurting right now. But who was she? I thought to his friends. It could be Raven, but she and Monty weren't dating yet. Maybe Octavia, her and Jasper weren't dating yet either, but they had kissed. The only one left I knew of was Fox, she had recently started dating Jones. I think Jones and Miller were friends.
"Is it Fox?" I asked.
His expression looked a little disappointed."No."
"Then who is she?"I asked.
"She is," he was about to answer when Camilo came.
"Clarke, Monty and and Jasper are gonna start a game of beer pong or something like that. They want you to go over there." He said.
I looked at Miller."Guess I'll talk to you later." I turned to go where Monty and Jasper were setting up cups. Moments later Camilo joined.
"Okay ready to play guys?" Jasper asked the group, that had formed around the cups.
"Yep let's do this." Said a boy that's name I think was Sterling. He hung around Bellamy sometimes, but they weren't really close.
"Okay Camilo your on Sterling's team." Jasper said.
"I don't know guys, I don't really play these games." Camilo said.
"Just go." Octavia which appeared out of the crowd told him, and gave him a little push.
He went to where Sterling was standing. Octavia walked to the opposite side of the table. "Clarke's on my team." I walked to stand next to her.
"Who's starting?" Monty asked.
"Lady's first." Sterling said, and tossed us the ping pong ball. I caught it.
"Yeah so you two go first." Octavia told them, and I tossed the ping pong ball back. Sterling caught it and threw it at one of our cups, he missed.
"Ha!" Octavia exclaimed. She then aimed it in one of their cups and made it in. She smiled in victory. Sterling took the cup and chugged down the moonshine filled cup. It was Camilo's turn, he made it into one of our cups, so I swallowed it down. Wincing a bit as it went down my throat. It was my turn and I surprisingly made it into one of there cups. Camilo drank it, and also winced. We went back and forth until Camilo and Sterling only had one cup left. We had only had to drink four. I had drunken two and Octavia had drank two. Sterling had five and Camilo had four. They both seemed pretty buzzed. Damn my mom was going to kill me, for not stopping Camilo from getting wasted. I aimed the ping pong at the final cup and it made it in.
"We win bitches!" Octavia yelled, as Camilo chugged the last cup. I smiled and gave her a high five.
"Wow didn't now you were good at beer pong Princess." Bellamy said from behind me. I turned.
"Neither did I." I said.
"Well winners always get a prize so this is yours." He told me and then leaned in to give me a kiss. I put my arms around his neck and tilted my head up a little to deepen the kiss. His hands were in my hips lulling me closer.
We didn't separate until Octavia spoke." Ewe, gross guys." I laughed.
"So are you enjoying the party Princess?" He asked.
"Yes, but I might need a ride home cause Camilo is kinda hammered."
"He couldn't of had that much." He said peering over at Camilo.
"Camilo doesn't seem like much of a drinker. He had five cups, and it was of Monty's moonshine." I explained.
He thought for a moment."You might have a point there. You're not much of a drinker either though, and you aren't drunk."
"That's because I only had two cups. Let's go dance." I dragged him into the living room, which had been turned into a dance floor. We had been dancing for who knows how long, when Raven asked if she could talk to me. Bellamy said it was okay, and Raven pulled me to the backyard. There weren't many people out here, just a couple which were making out. She took me to the farthest corner of the backyard.
"What's up Rae?" I asked.
She smiled wide."I kissed Monty!" I smiled too, and sort of squealed.
"That's incredible Raven! Tell me everything. How did it happen? Where did it happen? How did he react? How did you react?" I was ready to ask her another dozen questions when she cut me off. "Woah Clarke! Too many questions at once."
I smiled."Sorry, but seriously what happened?"
She smiled as she told me."He was in the kitchen and I walked in. We started talking, and we got really close. So I kissed him. Clarke it was the best kiss I ever had!" Then her smile fell.
"What's wrong Rae?" I asked."Did he not kiss back?"
"No he did. The problem is that I ran out of there. He probably got the wrong message by me running out." She said.
"Why'd you run?"
"I don't know, I guess I was just nervous and didn't know what to do." She said."I really like him Clarke."
"Oh Rae." I hugged her."Stay here, I'll be right back." She nodded, and I headed back into the house. I looked for Mont. When I finally found him, I told him to come with me. I took him to Raven. When she saw him she tensed a bit. She was going to leave when I stopped her. "Raven tell Monty what you told me."
"Clarke." She said.
"Raven." I imitated her tone.
She sighed, and looked at Monty. "I like you Monty."
Monty looked surprised."I like you too." Raven smiled and kissed Monty.
"Looks like my work here is done." I smiled and walked back to the house to look for Bellamy. I searched everywhere for him, but he was no where to be found. Camilo was with Jasper, Octavia, and Fox. I searched for Miller, and found him surprisingly sober leaning against a wall staring into space.
"Hey Miller, are you sober?" I asked.
"Yep, why does it surprise you?" He turned to look at me.
"You said you wanted to get drunk." I told him, recalling what he said earlier.
"I thought about what you told me, that getting drunk wasn't the answer. So I decided that maybe I'll just watch everyone, and hang out with other friends." He said.
"That's good." I smiled."How come you're not filming this incredible party?"
"I am having someone else go around and film everything." He explained."Is there something you wanted?"
"Yeah, have you seen Bellamy?" I asked.
"Some kid spilled cheese dip on him, he went to my room to change a couple moments before you came over here. If you want to go look for him, my room is upstairs the second door to the right." He told me.
I smiled at him."Thanks Miller." I went upstairs and opened the door to Miller's room.
I stopped at the doorway in shock. "Bellamy?" I managed to say.Bellamy was shirtless laying on the bed. Roma was almost naked with only her bra and panties on, her hands on Bellamy's shoulders, and she was on top of him.
"Princess!" He said as Roma stood an grabbed her shirt from the floor, and said."Don't you knock Bitch!?"
"Shut up Roma!" Bellamy told her. He was standing now.
"What is this Bellamy?" I asked tears brimming in my eyes. I blinked trying to keep them back.
"Look Princess it's not what it looks like," He began.
Roma cut him off though."What do you mean it's not what it looks like? You are the one who brought me in here. You told me that you liked me and that you were going to dump Clarke as you were kissing me."
"That's not true!" He yelled. "Princess,"
"Yeah it is." Roma said. Anger and hurt boiled inside me.
I slapped Roma, "I warned you to stay away from Bellamy and myself or I would become your worst nightmare, and I meant it!"
"Bitch, you don't threaten me!" She screamed and went to slap me but I caught her wrist, and twisted her arm. Then I dropped it. I looked at Bellamy.
"I should've believed my mom." I went to leave having trouble keeping my tears in when Bellamy caught my arm, and spun me to face him.
"Princess listen to me.Let me explain."
"No Bellamy, what I saw explained itself." My tears were fighting there way out, as I wiggled myself out of his hold and ran downstairs. I ran to Camilo.
"Camilo let's go." I pulled him off the couch, and walked to where Miller was.
"Clarke are you okay?" Camilo asked stopping me, he sounded more sober than before, though I still thought we needed someone to drive us home.
"I'm fine." I told him, though I really wasn't. I felt destroyed in the inside. He touched my face. "You're crying."
It blinked several times, but the tears just kept flowing. He hugged me, "What happened?" I knew perplexed were staring at us, but I just didn't care right now. My heart was shattered, I couldn't believe what just happened. I caught Bellamy cheating on me.
"Get your hands off her!" Bellamy's voice was louder than the music. He was coming downstairs, now with a shirt on. He came over to us and punched Camilo in the face. Camilo stumbled back.
"Bellamy!" I yelled. Camilo, though shy and not a violent guy, was still a guy. And when a guy gets punched he fights back. Camilo then punched Bellamy. Someone had turned off the music and now people were cheering them on. "Stop!" I yelled, hit of course they didn't listen. Camilo was able to tackle Bellamy and was now punching him repeatedly and hard in the face, I think I saw a bit of blood. "Camilo! Stop!"Then Bellamy pushed Camilo off of him and kneed him in the stomach. He punched Camilo in the jaw, then the nose drawing blood. "Please! Stop!" They continued fighting. I stood there helpless.
"Miller! Atom! Someone!" I yelled. Seconds later, Miller, Atom, Jasper and Monty pushed themselves through the crowd.
"Help me!" I yelled at them. I took a chance and got in between them.
"I said stop!" Miller, Jasper, and Monty held Bellamy back, as Atom held Camilo back.
"What's wrong with you two? You're fighting like animals!" I screamed at them.
"He attacked me first Clarke!" Camilo defended himself.
"Because you had your hands on my girlfriend!" Bellamy barked at him.
"Shut up! Both of you!" I yelled at them."You sound like children! Camilo if he attacked you, then you shouldn't of hit back. And you Bellamy," I shook my head at him, "he was hugging me, because I was crying. After what I saw up there in Miller's room, you no longer have any right to be jealous, you have no claim on me." My eyes filled with tears as I remembered what happened, minutes ago.
"Princess," He began.
"Don't call me that anymore!" I hissed.
"Clarke, please just let me explain to you what you actually saw." He begged.
"I know what I saw Bellamy. I saw you about to have sex with Roma. I saw the boy I loved and the boy I thought loved me back, cheating on me." I said.
"You cheated on her?" Octavia asked surfacing from the crowd, Raven and Fox behind her. Miller, Monty, and Jasper had released Bellamy. Atom had released Camilo and they were all looking at him expectantly.
"You cheated on her with Roma?" Raven asked."A complete slut."
"I'm not a slut!" Roma yelled.
"Oh please, who haven't you slept with?" Raven asked.
"So you're the one who got between my brother and Clarke." Octavia said, then went over to her and slapped her hard. Then she went and slapped her brother. "That's for cheating on my best friend."
"I didn't cheat on her! If you guys would just listen!" He yelled. I couldn't be here anymore."Raven can you drive us home?" She nodded and I dragged Camilo outside by the wrist Raven following us. Tears were streaming down my face. As we stepped outside I felt someone grab my arm. It was Bellamy."Clarke please, if you love me just listen."
" I-I don't know if I love you anymore." My voice cracked. Bellamy's eyes held tears, and he looked distraught.
"Then I guess you never loved me." He said.
"I did, I just don't know, after what I saw."
"Are you sure it's because of what you saw?"He asked harshly.
"What are you saying?"
"I'm saying that maybe you're just using this as an excuse because you like someone else." I stared at him in shock."Maybe you already cheated in me with him." How could he even think that. His eyes widened slightly and he looked a bit guilty as he realized what he just said."Im sorry Princess, I didn't mean" I slapped him out of anger and hurt.
"Screw you, we're done Bellamy." I said and left to the Ford Flex. Raven went in the drivers seat, I sat next to her, and Camilo was in back. There was silence. I quietly cried against the window. I couldn't believe it. The love of my life just cheated on me, and I just broke up with him. When we arrived home Raven parked outside, she was going to keep the car until tomorrow so she could go pick up Jasper,Monty, and Octavia who weren't going to be driving with Bellamy for sure.
"Are you okay Clarke?" Raven asked before I got off.
"No, I'm not." I said, my tears were wet from tears. She gave me a hug and Camilo and I got off. When we entered, Camilo stopped me before I could go to my room.
"I'm sorry." He said.
"It's okay." I said, though my fave was wet I kept trying to keep the tears in.
"Clarke it's okay if you let yourself cry, it's not healthy to keep the tears in." He told me.
I gave him a sad smile and I finally, completely broke down. He wrapped his arms around me, as I sobbed uncontrollably. He petted my hair, trying to soothe me.
"It hurts so bad." I told him.
"Ssh, I know." He said. My mother walked in the room and saw us I detached myself from Camilo. She looked at Camilo's beat up face and my tear soaked one.
"What happened?" She asked. "Camilo sit down I'll go get something to patch you up." I ran upstairs as my mother cleaned and patched up Camilo's wounds. I collapsed on my bed and cried into my pillow. Why was this happening? I loved Bellamy, and after what happened, how could I forgive him. It wasn't just because of what I saw, it was also because of what he said. Did he honestly believe I cheated on him? I didn't know what hurt more the fact that he accused me of cheating or the fact that he cheated on me. I terrible, I just wanted to die, or lose my memory. Or just anything to get rid of this pain. How could I forget his kisses, his smile, the way he made me feel like he truly loved me. He clearly didn't love me, if he did he wouldn't of cheated on me. He clearly didn't even trust me since he accused me of cheating. I grabbed my iPod and began to sing along to the song that was playing. It was Taylor Swift's White Horse.
Say you're sorry
That face of an angel
Comes out just when you need it to
As I paced back and forth all this time
Cause I honestly believed in you
I did believe in him.
Holding on
The days drag on
Stupid girl,
I should've known, I should've known
I wish I had known, my mother was right.
I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairy tale,
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet,
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain't Hollywood, this is a small town,
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down,
He let me down, and I didn't know if I could forgive him.
Now it's too late for you and your white horse to come around
It was too late.
Maybe I was naïve,
Got lost in your eyes
And never really had a chance
My mistake, I didn't know to be in love
You had to fight to have the upper hand
I had so many dreams
About you and me
Happy endings
How could I believe we would have a happy ending.
Now I know
That I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairy tale,
I'm not his Princess anymore.
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet,
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain't Hollywood, this is a small town,
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down,
Now it's too late for you and your white horse to come around
And there you are on your knees,
Begging for forgiveness, begging for me
Just like I always wanted but I'm so sorry
Cause I'm not your princess, this ain't a fairytale,
I'm gonna find someone someday who might actually treat me well
Hopefully I would.
This is a big world, that was a small town
There in my rear view mirror disappearing now
I had been crying as I sang.
And it's too late for you and your white horse
Now it's too late for you and your white horse to catch me now
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa
Try and catch me now
Oh, it's too late
To catch me now
My mother came in as I finished singing.
"Clarke," She began.
"Mom you were right." I said still crying."Please don't say I told you so."
She came over to me and wrapped her arms around me, "I'm sorry honey." I cried, with her arms around me until I fell asleep.
