Peace Offerings and Sickness

Enjoy! I also update the prologue to my new book The 100 Closer Than Before (Bellamy Blake FanFiction) Check it out and let me know if you think I should continue it or not. 

Everyone was cheering, laughing and having a lot of fun. The sound of cups clinking, people laughing filled the air, it was one of the best things I have experienced in quiet awhile. I was currently playing a drinking game with some of my friends; I ended up losing so I had to drink the cup with the coin in it. Finishing it I bit the coin showing everyone I did it properly,

 “What do you know? Her highness can party.” I looked to my right to see a guy with blonde hair that was swept to the side smiling at me. “I like it” I smiled at him looking down at the cup in my hand,

“So what are you going to do when the guards come down and commandeer Monty’s still?”

 He looked at me wide eyed, “Monty’s still? Build another.” I laughed at his answer and looked at the coin and cup in my hand; raising it I held it in front of the guys face,

 “All right. You ready?” I looked at them and began to try to balance the coin on my nose; it slipped every now and then, “I’ve done this before, I promise.” The guy looked amused when I finally had it balanced on my nose and began to lean forward letting the coin fall off my face but before it hit my cup a hand reached out and grabbed it. I looked up to see Spacewalker looking at everyone I was talking with,

“What is it?” I looked at Finn concerned.

 He looked at the guy to my right, “Let’s take a walk” he said finally looking at my face. I nodded my head and apologized to my friends. I walked along side Finn waiting for him to say something, he was silent for a while,

 “I need you to come with me but I can’t tell you why, okay?”

 I looked at him confused and a little frustrated he chose me of all people to help him, “Finn what can’t you tell me?” he grabbed my arm trying to get me to go with him, but I stopped him backing away,

 “Not until you tell me” he sighed,

 “I set up a meeting with the grounders,” I looked at him wide eyed; I know Lincoln saved me but that doesn’t mean I’m in favor of meeting them.

 “A meeting? I don’t understand, with who? How?”

 “I arranged it with Lincoln; you know the grounder you and Octavia helped escape?” I nodded for him to continue,

 “If we want to live in peace,” I stopped him right there,

 “Finn we can’t live in peace with people who have done nothing but kill us.”

 “Can you think of a better way to stop the bloodshed,” I stopped looking and looked at the ground, “Do you really want a war?” I looked up at Finn, “because at this rate, that’s what’s coming.”

 “Look, I know it’s a long shot but this is our world now and I think we can do better than the first time round” I looked at him and sighed,

 “Fine, but if we go…we bring guns.” Finn immediately began to shake his head,

 “No,” I looked at him confused, “guns were not a part of the agreement, if we’re gonna do this then we gotta give it a fair shot.” I nodded my head. I didn’t trust my voice so I motioned for him to lead the way. He smiled and began to lead me to one of the stupidest things I’ve done in a while.

 Clarke’s POV:

 “I set up a meeting with the grounders,” I heard Finn tell Alex, making me immediately stop. I crouched behind a bush and listened in on the conversation.
