THE MOOD AROUND CAMP WAS SOMBER as those who knew of Isabella and her sacrifice grieved greatly. Octavia became more closed off destroying herself internally for not spending more time with her best friend.
Raven, who had only known the girl for a day, grieved for what could have been a great friendship.
But worst of all was Bellamy. On the outside the man seemed more aggressive and irritable but if one was to look closer they would see the tear stains on his cheekbones (where they laid like fallen stars) or his red puffy eyes ( which came from to many nights of looking at the moon and sobbing )
In fact the only ones that didn't seem to be grieving were, Clarke, Finn and Gracie. Contrary to the mood around the camp, Gracie had been in wonderful mood, stemming from the fact her mother was not dead. She even let Clarke put her hair in pigtails which by the way she often refused.
She skipped along the soft dirt as she made her way around the camp looking to thank the woman who had so kindly saved her mother. Yet instead she found her father.
Curious she sat next to her father who was sitting on the log by the camp fire watching the flames dance (just like a certain blonde had done, not to long ago), She looked at him with her big blue ocean eyes as she looked into his red rimmed chocolate brown ones "Daddy where did the nice lady that saved mama go?"
Bellamy took a large intake of air as he thought of how to explain to his four year daughter that her real mother had come alive and used her gifted second chance to save her adoptive mother which resulted in her real mothers death.
The best way was to not explain it all, he thought, as he looked down at his daughter, he did not want to be the cost of her sadness.
"She joined the stars, sweetheart" Gracie nodded even though she had heard the phrase several times she still couldn't grasp the meaning of it and pictured it kind of like a peaceful vacation that you never came back from.
Gracie sighed softly as she grabbed her father's hand tightly and stared at him, her head tilted to the side adorably as an inquisitive expression was painted onto her pale face "Daddy?"
Bellamy turned to look at his daughter curiously wondering what she had to say "Yes sweetheart" Gracie gulped slightly and held her fathers hand tighter. It was then Bellamy noticed the fear present in her ocean blue eyes "Promise me you won't join the stars"
Bellamy sat in silence for a moment, he was sure that it was very likely of his death during the battle that was about to occur between the 100 and the grounders.He was absolutely positive that he wasn't supposed to lie to his child.
But he did anyway.
He looked his little girl in the eye and gave her a small smile "I promise"
But didn't anyone ever tell him, the most dangerous liars are the ones who think they are telling the truth.

John Murphy was furious, he had lost his best friend again all because the supposed love of her life, let her die to save his princess.
Just the mere thought of it made his anger boil, this is why as he skinned the flesh of the deceased animals in his arms, he imagined he was skinning the fool of a Blake.
Oh how his mind filled with ecstasy as he thought of Bellamy being dead, even more he would hang him just like he did to him, he would enjoy watching as the life drained from his eyes just like he almost did to Murphy. Oh how he revelled.
However he was pulled from his fantasy as the he heard Octavia shout at one of the delinquents he was working with, Del, he believed his name was (not that he cared)
"You don't want the fire too big. So maybe just try to knock it down with some wet leaves."
The stubborn delinquent laughed as he sneered at the grieving brunette "She's right. A hot fire is not gonna preserve the meat as well."
The stubborn boy sneered again, as he looked down at Murphy as if he was something the delinquent found at the sole of his shoe "You can't take the heat, get out of the smokehouse. Should be kissing our asses for being allowed back in this camp. Just keep working."
Murphy scoffed angrily but continued his work but this time his thoughts revolved around the delinquent and how maybe he could kill him along with the Blake boy.

Bellamy held his daughter in his calloused arms as he looked over his spluttering sister, Gracie looked at her Aunt worriedly "Are you Okay, Aunt Tavia"
Octavia smiled as she grabbed her niece out of Bellamy's arms and set her on her hip, the tee younger Blake's rubbed the noses together preforming an Eskimo kiss "I am now that I have my girl in his arms"
Octavia then looked at her rigid older brother and looked into his eyes "Bellamy that was all the food,what are we supposed to do now"
Gracie smirked as she stared at her Father and raised her small fist energetically "Now we hunt"
