Baby - Bellamy Blake

TWENTY-ONE

•••

Freya ran fast through the woods with an arrow ready in her bow. She ignored her burning ankle as Clarke screamed once again from afar. She knew to find Bellamy she had to find Clarke, so that's what she was doing. 

" Should've stayed down there, Clarke. I tried not to kill you, but here you are, and Shumway said no witnesses. " The closer Freya got, the more she could hear

" What is he talking about? " She heard Clarke question

" Shumway set it up. He gave me the gun to shoot the chancellor. " Freya slowed her steps and hid behind a tree. Clarke looked up at the trees when she noticed movement but didn't see anything

" Walk away now, and I won't kill you. " Dax warned Clarke

" Put it down." From what Freya could see, Clarke held up the gun 

" Your choice." Turning from her spot, Freya pulled her arrow back and lined it with Dax's throat. In seconds, the arrow was soaring through the air, and then it was in the middle of Dax's neck. 

He dropped the gun as he fell to his knees before face planting the ground. Bellamy and Clarke both turned to Freya as she lowered her bow to her side once again. 

" Shit " She cursed as she fell off her broken ankle that was now sore than ever. Bellamy was the first to rush up to her and catch her before she hit the floor. 

Clarke helped Bellamy pull her to a tree as they both rested on each side of her. 

" Thank you." Clarke turned to Freya, who waved her off. Freya tilted her body so she was lying on Bellamys chest, to which he wrapped his arms around her

" You're okay," Freya mumbled into his shirt

" No, I'm not. My mother... If she knew what I've done, who I am, she raised me to be better, to be good. " Bellamy shook his head, and Freya could just imagine the guilt he was feeling at the moment.

" Bell - "

" And all I do is hurt people. I'm a monster. " Bellamys voice cracked before he tightened his hold on Freya. The girl suddenly felt a wave of nausea hit her, making her squeeze her eye shut

" Hey... You have saved my life today. You may be a total ass half the time, but I need you. We all need you. " Clarke spoke with a sigh as she glanced at Freya."  None of us would've survived this place if it wasn't for you. You want forgiveness, fine, I'll give it to you. You're forgiven, ok, but you can't run, Bellamy. You have to come back with us. You have to face it. "

" Like you faced your mom? " Bellamy shot out. Freya turned her head and met the stare of Clarke, who seemed to realize that she had been fact avoiding her mom

" You're right. I don't want to face my mom. I don't want to face any of it. All I think about every day is how we're gonna keep everyone alive, but we don't have a choice. " Clarke spoke like a leader
