War of Hearts 》Bellamy Blake

N I N E

'Wouldn't that just solve all your problems. Should I start watching my back?' She raised an eyebrow at Bellamy, who simply rolled his eyes at her.

'You look like shit.' Murphy snickered and Bellamy waited for Brinley to snap a crude remark at him but to his surprise she just smirked at her friend.

'Like you look any better?' Brinley cocked her head as Murphy rolled his eyes.

'Go get some sleep, Kane.'

'Don't tell me what to do, John.'

Murphy mumbled something that sounded suspiciously like fuck off before he noticed someone slacking on their job and he quickly made his way to them gleefully, only too happy to tell them off as glanced at Brinley once more as he left.

Brinley made to walk away but Bellamy stopped her. 'Next time, take someone with you.' He ordered.

'Yes, sir.' She muttered mockingly as she turned towards the drop ship.

Bellamy rolled his eyes, something that was becoming habit around the younger girl.

Brinley made her way to the corner Monty had claimed as his own, and to Brinley's surprise Jasper was sitting beside him, still looking pale but alive, at least.

'Look who decided to grace up with his presence.' She commented as she made her way towards the two.

'Your concern is noted.' He snickered.

Brinley smiled slightly. 'It is good to see you awake, thought you were a goner for awhile there.'

'You and half the camp.' He rolled his eyes. 'No faith.'

'Can I sit?' She questioned.

'Go for it.' Monty nodded.

'What are you two doing?' She looked at the rough drawings in front of them.

'Trying to modify the moonshine recipe, and build a still.'

'What are you changing?'

'The stuff we usually use for a base isn't exactly accessible here, so from what we can remember, there's specific fruits we could use but-'

Brinley smirked. 'What about strawberries?'

Jasper and Monty looked at her as though she had grown two heads. 'What?'

'Could you use strawberries?'

'Well yeah but-' Jasper started.

'Unless you know where to-'

Brinley pulled her hand out of her pocket and opened her palm. The two boys stared at her.

'Oh my god.' Monty muttered looking at Jasper.

'You know what his means?' Jasper whispered.

'We're back in business baby!' The two high fived and Brinley giggled.

'There's more where these came from, like loads more.' She placed the strawberries on a piece of clean plastic they were using as a tray.

'I love you.' Jasper hugged Brinley, wincing as he moved too quickly.

'Slow down there Jasper, you'll hurt yourself again.'

Jasper grinned sheepishly.

'You two get onto that moonshine thing.' She winked as she stood up.

'Don't worry, we will.' The two grinned at her.

'Don't have too much fun.' She called as she walked away.
