Lovella wandered through the trees, making sure Charlotte stayed by her side, safe, even though lovella couldn't fight against anything, she wouldn't anyways.
Lovella hated fighting. She saw no point in it and others could get harmed. But, she knew the world down here wouldn't be peaceful. It was going to be far from it. And she knew, she wouldn't survive.
She admired the environment around her, mostly looking around at the beautiful variants of flowers, how the colours radiated magically. She loved this part of earth. It was everything lovella dreamed off.
But the Kane girl paused slightly, looking down to see almost every critter and bugs running in one direction, making her lift her foot up and shake it.
"What's wrong, sunshine? Tired?" Bellamy stopped when he heard lovella stop.
"I think somethings wrong." Lovella mumbled, looking up at him with a frown and pointing to the ground, making the group of boys look down at the ground.
They all looked up when they saw a yellow looking fog make their way tomorrow. Lovella breathed out slightly. "I don't know about you but that doesn't look friendly."
And with that, the four of them started to run, Bellamy grabbing lovella's arm and making her run in front of him with Charlotte. "Come on! There are caves this way." Bellamy yelled as they all ran through the trees, lovella never letting go of the young girls hand.
Then a horn was blown, but lovella had no time to question it as they ran for their lives. Bellamy was quick to push lovella and Charlotte up the hill and into the cave, his hand landing on her back.
"Bellamy!" They heard a yell, realising it was atom.
Lovella's eyes widened as she turned around to face Bellamy-who was yet to walk into the cave. "We have to go back for him, bell." Lovella stepped forward, only for Bellamy to grab her by the waist, holding her back. "He could die!"
"We go back, we die!" Bellamy told her, making her sadly sigh, Bellamy leading them deeper into the cave and away from the entrance of the cave.
Lovella stared softly at the sleeping girl on her leg, watching as her eyelids moved around, meaning she was having a dream. If the girl was being honest, she wanted to see jasper. She didn't know if he was okay, or if he was awake. She just wanted to know her best friend was okay.
Lovella lifted her head as she leaned it against the walls of the cave, holding her arms as she silently shivered.
"You cold, sunshine?" Bellamys voiced made her look up, shaking her head with a soft smile. She was cold, haven given Charlotte her jacket to keep the young girl warm.
"I'm fine." She shook him off, the smile still on her face. But Bellamy didn't believe her, pulling his jacket off and throwing it to her side.
"Wear it." Bellamy told her as she sighed, sending him a small smile As she took hold of the jacket and pulling it on. It was far too big for her, but she didn't care, she was warm. But she felt bad, leaving Bellamy without a source of warmth.
"Thank you, I appreciate it, bell." Lovella quietly thanked him, the smile not leaving her face. Bellamy sent her a quick smile back.
Bellamy cleared his throat before speaking up. "What's up with you and Murphy?" He asked as lovellas face fell slightly. "He mentioned something but didn't go into detail." He added as she lowered her head, fidgeting with the arms of his jacket. "Sorry, if it's a touchy subject."
"No, no. It's fine." She slowly nodded her head. She bit down on her tongue before speaking. "Uhm, we were friends when we were younger. We did everything together. He'd get me loads of books from the library. And I would have to get him out of trouble for stealing the books." She smiled and the faint memory. "Then, when he was sick, his father stole some medicine and got caught then floated. My dad was there when he got floated. And then his mother..." she paused, biting down on her tongue once again. "And he was left alone. He pushed me away and I've always thought it was my fault. My father floated his dad along side jaha." She breathed out, looking at Bellamy, who had a sincere look on his face.
"Im sorry." Bellamy spoke up as lovella wiped her eyes with the sleeves of the jacket, letting out a small chuckle. "It wasn't your fault, lovella. You had nothing to do with it." He moved closer to her as she looked up at him.
"Still, it feels like I could of stopped it. Helped Alex and Murphy's mother." She sadly shrugged her shoulders. Bellamy let out a sigh, placing his hand on hers and giving it a squeeze.
But Bellamy could reply, Charlotte started to stir around, making lovella sit up and hold her slightly. "No, no!" The girl cried, her eyes still closed.
Bellamy sat up slightly as he sat closer to the two. "Charlotte, Charlotte wake up." Lovella said softly, holding the girls shoulders, making Charlotte jump up-looking around with worry. "You're okay, it's okay. You're safe it was just a dream. You're safe." She softly said.
"I'm sorry." Charlotte sighed as she sat up slightly, lovellas's comforting grip never leaving.
"Does it happen often?" Bellamy asked, his voice gentle and quiet. The girl slightly nodded her head. "What are you scared of?" The girl didn't answer as lovella stroked her arm in a comforting way. "You know what? It doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is what you do about it." Bellamy told her, hands resting against her knee as he was sat in front of the two girls.
"But... I'm asleep." Charlotte whispered softly, leaning into lovella.
"Fears are fears. Slay your demons when you're awake, they won't be there to get you when you sleep." Bellamy softly told her, a small smile on his face.
"Yeah, but... How?" Charlotte raised her eyebrows, confused to what Bellamy was getting at.
"You can't afford to be weak. Down here, weakness is death, fear is death. Let me see that Knife I gave you." He held his hand out as Charlotte reached into her pocket, handing Bellamy the knife. "Now, when you feel afraid, you hold tight to that Knife and you say, 'screw you. I'm not afraid.'" He told her as she nodded, him passing the knife back.
"Screw you. I'm not afraid." Charlotte said in a low voice, squeezing onto the knife in her hands.
"Come on, you can do better than that. Ain't that right, love?" Bellamy looked up to the Kane girl, making her nod her head, a smile on her face. She ignored the new nickname, nobody ever called her that, but she liked it.
"Screw you! im not afraid!" Charlotte said with more confidence, a smile on her face as she looked at bellamys proud one.
"Slay your demons, kid. Then you'll be able to sleep." Bellamy patted her shoulder, lovella watching in awe slightly as she watched bellamys soft side come out. Lovella never had a negative opinion on Bellamy. She knew him as Octavias brother. Sure, he made stupid decisions ( as does everyone else ) and maybe he was a bit chaotic. But he had a soft side, which she had seen in the cave. It was another side that he didn't let anyone else see except his baby sister. Lovella liked his soft side, she had to admit. But she'd keep her thoughts to herself
"Come on, we'll still be here for a while, to back to sleep, char." Lovella rubbed the girls arm, making the little one nod, getting comfortable again. "Guess having a younger sister pays of, huh, Bell?" Lovella grinned slightly.
"Guess so, sunshine." Bellamy also smiled, making lovella roll her eyes. "You go to sleep, I'll watch over you both." He told her and she sighed before nodding, getting comfortable on the floor and using her arm as a pillow.
Lovella wearily excited the cave, following Bellamy, sighing as the air was clear. "Come on." Bellamy turned to lovella and Charlotte as they nodded, following her. "Anybody out here?" Bellamy yelled, "Jones?" He added.
"We're here!" Jones yelled back, making the three follow the voice. They walked until they found three others.
"Lost you in the stew. Where'd you go?" Bellamy asked them as they got closer.
"Made it to a cave down there." Jonas replied. "The hell was that?" He asked as he held a stick in his hand.
"I don't know." Bellamy sighed as he looked at the group, frowning. "Where's atom?" He asked and they watched as the three shrugged. Lovella's heart dropped slightly, remembering they left him. She felt the guilt take over her mind, holding onto charlotte's hand.
They had continued to walk back to camp, lovella taking the lead, Charlotte by her side, or so she thought.
When lovella heard charlottes scream, she took off in the direction of the scream, ignoring bellamys voice telling her to wait.
She sighed as she saw Charlotte okay, pulling the girl towards her. Lovella then looked down, noticing the thing she was screaming at. Her heart dropped from her chest, to the ground.
Atom laid on the floor full of blisters, almost dead.
"Lovella!" The white haired girl turned to see Bellamy jog towards them, his face dropped as he noticed the girls's face. His eyes widened as he looked down at atom. "Son of a bitch. Atom." Bellamy walked towards the man, lovella slowly following behind him.
Lovella crouched beside him, realising he was barely alive. "What do we do?" Lovella panicked, watching as atom looked around, his eyes glassed over. "We need to get him back to camp, put some water on him." And the medicine she had back in her and Octavias tent.
Bellamy lowered his head slightly, listening to atoms pleases, making lovella frown. "Kill me." Atom breathed out making Bellamy look up at lovella with worry.
The Kane girl carefully held onto atoms hand, watching as Bellamy stood up. "We're gonna help you, okay. You'll be okay." Lovella slowly nodded her head as she looked back down at atom, tears evident in her eyes. She didn't know the boy well, but he didn't deserve this, nobody fid. he was in pain, he was suffering.
She didn't realise Charlotte had given Bellamy his knife back and told him not to be afraid. "Go back to camp." He told the other three, before turning to Charlotte and lovella. "Charlotte, lovella, you too."
"I'm not leaving." Lovella breathed out, eyes not leaving atom. Charlotte nodded her head as she followed the group back to camp.
Bellamy crouched back down, hosting the knife in his hands. Lovella looked up at Bellamy as his hands shook, making her rest her hand on his. "Together?" Lovella said softly. She didn't want to end atoms life, his death and blood on her hands. But she didn't want Bellamy to suffer with his friends death on his hands. Bellamy slowly nodded his head, letting lovella place a hand on his, the one that held the knife.
She dropped her eyes down to atom, her breaths heavy as she ran her free hand through her hair. "Im sorry." She softly cried. "Think of something happy, okay." She moved his hair from his eyes. "Close your eyes." She softly told him as he did.
She breathed out heavily as she looked up at Bellamy, the boy nodding his head as she bit down on her tongue, looking down at atom with teary eyes. She counted to three in her head before the two pushed the blade into his head, stopping the suffering.
Lovella let out a small, choked sob, leaning into Bellamy as she let go of his hand. They had lost another person from the 100. Lost another one of their people. Their friend.
Lovella then realised, the ark had sent them down to die. Her father willingly let the ark send her down to her death.
And she was scared.
— MADDIES CORNER
I'm honestly so mad rn. I wrote this chapter YESTERDAY ON MY LAPTOP. And I went to publish the chapter todsy. And I was like, "hey, were is the chapter. WATTPAD FUCKING GOT RID OF IT ALL. So I had to RE DO IT. I am absolutely FURIOUS.
But I thinkers it worked? Idk.
But this chapter went in more detail on lovellas inner thoughts about everything.
But the fact I made her hell Bellamy kill atom. I didn't know if I should do it bc she would NEVER want to kill somebody. But she didn't want to let Bellamy suffer, so she wanted to help atom not suffer anymore. And I hope I wrote that part okay.
Bc lovella is an absolute ball of sunshine. She doesn't like arguing, fighting, death, war. She hates all of it. Like YOU CAN TELL. Like!!!!! Look at her the ball of joy.
But I feel like killing atom is a big part of lovellas character development and her adapting to earth.
But I hope you like this chapter!
