A groan escapes Astrids lips as she flutters her ocean eyes open. Every limb hurts like hell. She feels like dying.

"Why does this shit keep happening to me?" Astrid mumbles tiredly.

She looks at her surroundings, realizing she's in Bellamy's tent. Astrid rolls her eyes, still mad with him.

She tries sitting up but before she could, the tent flap opens and Bellamy comes in. Almost immediately, a smile graces his features when he sees that Astrid is awake. The smile falls when he sees that she doesn't return it.

"Sweetheart" he sighs in relief as he sits opposite her "thank god you're awake" he says as he hands her a canister filled with water and a packer filled with nuts and berries.

Astrid downs the water in one huge gulp then raises an eyebrow in confusion while eating some of the food Bellamy brought "What happened?"

Bellamy clears his throat slightly as he adjusts his position, his knees touching Astrids "Well you passed out. You started seizing and then you stopped breathing" Bellamy inhales sharply "I, um gave you CPR. Then we got the antidote, gave it to you and now here we are?"

Astrid raises an eyebrow amused "You gave me CPR?"

Bellamy glares playfully "Is it that hard to believe that I know how to give CPR?

Astrid shrugs playfully as a teasing smile makes its way on her face "Kinda"

Bellamy suddenly turns serious "I was really worried Astrid. Don't," he pauses "don't just get cut on knives. Or don't do anything at all. You've been through enough"

Astrids eyebrows raise in suprise. She never heard Bellamy be so sincere about the fact that he cared for someone. He just made sure his sister was fine. This was new to Astrid. She let a small smile adorn her features "No promises" at the sharp glare he sends her, she tries explaining "Well if it meant that Octavia, Raven, Jasper and my friends were safe, i would put myself in danger. If it meant you were safe, i would put myself in danger"

Bellamy looks at her with such adoration Astrid might die. Nobody ever looked at her that way.

"I'm sorry" Bellamy suddenly apologizes. At her confusion, he continues "I'm sorry for being a jerk, for putting you and Octavia through that pain. I'm sorry for not listening to you and for torturing the grounder" he sighs heavily and glances at his lap.

Astrid exhales "What you did with the radio was selfish and stupid. And a part of me, a tiny part will always be mad at you because of that. You can't take those lives back and now their blood is on your hands" she pauses "And what you did with the grounder was what you thought was right. That does not mean i agree with what you did. I just know that you felt pressured to do what was right by Finn and you thought that meant torturing someone." Astrid sighed.

Bellamy lifted his glassy eyes from his lap to Astrids blue ones and he swore that his world stopped. There is so much understanding in them and it makes his heart beat inexplicably fast. He suddenly is aware of how close they are and he wants to be closer. He wants to hold Astrid close, to kiss her. He wants her.

Clarke suddenly enters the tent, interrupting any thought Bellamy had.

"I am not talking to him" is the first thing Bellamy says much to Astrids confusion. His voice holds annoyance because Clarke just had to interrupt his conversation with Astrid.

"Thats not what i want to talk to you about" Clarke shakes her head then suddenly sees Astrid and her eyes widen "Astrid, you're awake" she exclaims as she goes to hug Astrid. Astrid simply pats her back awkwardly as Bellamy sends her an amused look.

"Well what do you want to talk about?" Bellamy questions with a heavy sigh.

"The Ark found a supply depot not far away from here" Clarke states, glancing quickly at Astrid

Bellamy raises his eyebrows in confusion "What kind of supplies?"

"The kind that will help us live through winter" Clarke nods "You should check it out. I still have to do some things in camp but you should bring backup"

"Oh I can come" Astrid smiles at the two who are giving her disapproving looks.

"No" Clarke and Bellamy say in unison.

Astrid pouts "Come on guys. I haven't done anything fun in a while. And i feel a whole lot better. I am ready to go"

Bellamy shakes his head in amusment, finding her pout incredibly adorable "Fine. But you stay by my side the whole time" he points his finger at Astrid who nods, ignoring Clarkes protests.

-

Astrid looks at Bellamy as he shoves a lot of pack of nuts in his bag "You know this is like a day trip, right?" Astrid questions amused.

Bellamy looks up at her, no amusment on his face "A lot can happen in a day" he says then puts more food in his bag.

Astrid huffs then spots Octavia "I'll be right back" she says without looking at Bellamy then runs towards the other Blake sibling.

Octavia sends her a questioning look while Astrid leans in and whispers in her ear "Think you can get the grounder out of here before we get back?"

Octavia smiles slightly and nods "I'll try"

Astrid smirks then turns to see Bellamy having a sorrowful look as he watches the two girls. Confusion quickly fills Astrid as she jogs up to him and the two are off to find the supply depot.

-

Astrid huffs as she watches Bellamy walk the opposite way to her. On the way to the depot, she was trying to convince him that he had to eventually talk to Jaha. But no, he changes the subject as quick as it comes. And now, the two were separately looking for the depot entrance.

Astrid, being lost in thought, trips on something hard. She lands face first in the dirt as an 'oomph' escapes her. She looks down at her feet to see that is was the depot entrance she stumbled upon. She gets in a sitting position as she tries to get the dirt of her face while calling for Bellamy "Hey freckles! Found the depot!"

Bellamy's head shoots up as he jogs to where Astrid is but stops when he sees her face. He tries to hide his laughter but soon his face is red from it "What happened to you?" he says between breaths.

Astrid sighs dramatically as she tries to clean her face better "I tripped Bellamy. Okay? You can stop laughing now you jerk" Astrid playfully glares at him.

Bellamy still has an amused smile on his face as he crouches down next to her as he brushes the dirt off of her face. His thumb lingers more on her cheek as they make eye contact. But he knows he can't do this now, because he might not leave anymore if he does.

So he clears his throat and pulls away, much to Astrids disappointment "Lets see this depot"

Astrid nods as Bellamy uses his axe to cut the bolts holding the door in place. The two groan as they open the door, Bellamy holding his hand out for Astrid as she decends on the stairs.

The place was in one word, gross. Cobwebs were in every corner, dust coated the floor along with every crate.

The two look around, voicing their disappointment from time to time.

"Hey I found blankets" Astrid exclaims happily as she holds up an orange blanket.

"Excited about a couple of blankets?" Bellamy asks annoyed.

"When you die because you froze to death, i will laugh" Astrid states with a raised eyebrow.

"What about a medkit or a canteen or a decent friking tent" Bellamy angrily shouts as he hits a crate. Bellamy stops as he peers at the stuff that fell out of the crate as a huge smile makes its way on his face.

"Oh my god." Bellamy breathes out with a grin. It seemed like he was in heaven.

"What?" Astrid asks confused then her eyes widen when she sees guns. A lot of guns. "Well holy shit"
