āThere must have been a technical problem Miss. We are so, so sorry. Please, you can sit first class and you donāt have to pay for anything during the flight.ā
āAs if I would,ā retorted the annoyed woman and Bellamy heard how she slumped into the seat right in front of him. The flight attendant put the luggage into the overhead and apologized for the fifth time, getting a huff as a response before she walked away. Bellamy looked after her, watching her disappear behind the curtain between first class and business. When his eyes flew back onto his book he stopped at the woman in front of him, who was ā to be quite honest ā really pretty. Even with her exhausted and annoyed facial expression. He watched her closely, recognizing the small birthmark above her lip and slightly sweating skin because it had been almost 97 Ā°F today and it was still humid. Just when his eyes were about to go further down he caught himself and put them back onto his book ā Pericles of Athens and the birth of Democracy by Donald Kagan.
Yeah, he still was the history nerd he had been with eighteen!
Bellamy still kept reading, when the stewardess gave the security information a few moments later. He had seen them dozens of times before and was pretty sure how to behave in any case of trouble. The mysterious blonde instead hung on the flight attendantās lips, when he looked up, which made him guess that this was her first flight or she hadnāt been on many planes before. An amused smile spread over his lips before going back to reading. It didnāt take him long to look up again. The plane was about to start when there was a loud rustle in front of him. The blonde shifted around in her seat, her feet fidgeted nervously up and down, so fast that he could feel it. She bit on her bottom lip and gazed nervously around when she caught him watching her. Bellamyās brows shot up in a silent question and she stopped immediately.
āSorry. Nervous flyer.ā
āDonāt tell me,ā answered Bellamy ironically and turned the book page, but not without checking on the blonde one last time.
The woman seemed to relax as the plane reached its flight level. They had been through rain clouds and an airhole which made her gasp and Bellamy tried to ignore that this kind of sound went directly to his guts. He cleared his throat as quietly as possible and tried to keep his eyes focused on the pages while she started to bring down her luggage and pulled some things out. He tried so hard not to watch while she was doing it, that he was thinking about her all the time and re-read one line for the third time when the stewardess approached them, asking if they would like something to drink.
āOh,ā started the woman in surprise and again Bellamy reminded him not to think about this sound in another specific and very different situation because damn; he didnāt know her but she was kind of hot! And he was just a guy. A guy who hadnāt had any sex in a long time so he couldnāt hold himself and his thoughts back of going ā¦ dirty. The heat crawled up his neck while eavesdropping on her order.
āDo you have some ice tea? With a lemon slice and mint leaf maybe?ā
āIām not sure about the mint leaf but Iāll look. What can I bring you Mister Blake?ā Addressed the stewardess Bellamy directly and made him look up.
He gave her a sweet smile before ordering āThe usual. A scotch on ice and a small water with gas please.ā
āOf course,ā smiled the woman back and Bellamy nodded in thanks.
His eyes wandered back to the book, catching the blonde looking at him, which made him smile at her. He flashed her one of his significant smile, which she easily returned before looking back onto her sketchbook. Bellamy kept his eyes on her instead.
He didnāt want to be the creepy stranger who checked out women on public transportation but he couldnāt resist to sneak.
Above the stormy clouds the sun was shining right through the small window, making her blonde hair looking like gold. Like she was wearing a halo. Her skin looked even softer. She had rosy cheeks and her lips were captured between her teeth far too often.
She didnāt notice him watching her. She was too lost in her doings. The blonde crooked her head, eyeing her work before letting her hands fly over the paper, knowing every line she made. Bellamyās eyes wandered along her hands towards her neck, down to her inviting cleavage and - oh Gosh he was such a creep! His eyes were literally glued on the curves of her breasts, making his thoughts race, when the flight attendant reached them, handing them their drinks.
Bellamy blushed, even though no one and especially not the blonde herself, had been seeing him. Even though he hoped his nervous smile didnāt give him away when the woman in front of him took her drink and sending him a short smile as a toast.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
They landed in Chicago, welcomed by lightning, thunder and pouring rain one and a half hours after departing from Nashville. Bellamy just got up as the rest of the passengers and wanted to grab his luggage when the pilotās voice filled the cabin, telling them that they had to remain seated because the airport stopped the check-in for everyone because of the storm. They werenāt allowed to leave the plane. A load groan went through the rows and Bellamy dropped back into his seat.
The loudest groan seemed to come from the woman in front of him.
āThey canāt be serious. I have a hotel reservation!ā She took a look at her watch before stopping one of the stewardesses, āHow long do we have to wait in here?ā
The womanās smile was excusing. āSadly we canāt tell you right now. The pilot has to talk to the manager first. Weāll let you know as soon as we have further information. We have to ask you to remain seated until then. Iām sorry.ā
āAwesome,ā spat the woman sarcastically when the attendant was gone, falling back into her seat.
Bellamy watched her before looking out of the window. He could barely see anything. They were in the middle of the tarmac, somewhere, and just the bolts lightened up the darkness. He rubbed his forehead. Gladly he didnāt have to get into any hotel but he was awake for more than sixteen hours now. All he wanted was to go to bed.
āWell,ā started Bellamy shortly and turned towards the blonde, ālooks like weāve got some time to kill. Iām Bellamy.ā He held out his hand, a charming smile on his lips.
The woman returned it immediately and shook his hand ā her own couldnāt even close around his completely because it was too small ā āClarke.ā
āSo, Clarke what brings you to Chicago?ā
āWizard World Comic Con,ā she said proudly and without any hesitation. She got an excited look on her face, returning Bellamyās question onto him.
āI live here.ā
āWhat did you do in Nashville then?ā
āVisiting my mom. She still lives there. You?ā
āOh thatās sweet,ā smiled Clarke and made Bellamyās chest swell a little, āI live there.ā
She smiled but shrugged together as a loud thunder rolled through the air. They both looked outside the window, watching the next lightning appear.
āWhat shitty weather,ā mumbled Clarke and sighed loudly and Bellamy remembered that she had some kind of trouble before.
āYou had some problem during boarding?ā
She rolled her eyes at this, which made him chuckle lowly.
āBelieve it or not but this fucking airline overbooked the flight. I bought my ticket six months ago and at the counter they told me that I donāt have any reservation. Canāt you believe that?ā
Honestly? He could. Most of the airlines did that but he wouldnāt dare to tell her. He didnāt want to upset her any further. So he just shook his head, āNot really.ā
āOh yeah! I was so pissed. I still am! I mean, not that the plane was an hour too late, nooo. To make my day even better they decided to delete my booking!ā
āSo usually no first class for you?ā
āOh no. I could never afford it. But this seat wasnāt taken. So I got it as some kind of reparation. Which seems to be my luck now.ā She grinned and then winked at him and Bellamy tried not to read too much into it. Maybe she had the same interest in him as he had in her?! Judging by her flirty smile she was flashing him right now ā she had!
āBlessing in disguise, huh?ā
āYupp. And you are a regular on this flight or why does the whole crew seem to know you?ā
Bellamy chuckled again, āSomething like that?ā
Then he added, āLike I said before, I visit my mom once in awhile. Iāll help her at her coffee shop and at the child-care. This time I stayed for almost two weeks. So yeah Iām well known.ā
Clarke lifted her eyebrows, looking clearly interested in him. āSo, part-time barista and nanny, huh?ā A grin played around her lips.
Bellamy blushed a little before nodding, āSomehow, yeah.ā
āAnd what are you doing when you are here in Chicago?ā
āIām working at the CME.ā
āCME?ā
āChicago Mercantile Exchange.ā
Clarke still blinked in confusion.
āIām a broker,ā explained Bellamy and thatās when the penny dropped.
āOh, oh of course. Exchange, yeah. Sorry. So youāre exchanging what?ā
āWe are trading natural resources. And what about you?ā
Clarke blushed, āI ā¦ Iām still looking for a job for myself. Right now Iām working at my best friendās shop and draw a lot. Nothing really worth living.ā
Bellamy opened his mouth to tell her that he didnāt judge her when the stewardess reached them once again, asking if she can get them something to eat.
āWhy?ā Asked Clarke immediately and the attendant shot her another apologetic look.
āThe airport is still closed. We have to remain in here a little longer.ā
āWhat? No way! I have a hotel reservation. We have been stuck in here for almost forty minutes. Why canāt you just let us go?ā
āBecause itās an order Miss Griffin. We are truly sorry but right now we arenāt allowed to open the door. Itās for your own safety.ā
āSo youāll pay for a new hotel room if I āā
āLike I said Miss Griffin, there is nothing we can do. We have to wait until the storm weakens. So to make the waiting as pleasant as possible ā can I bring you something to drink or eat?ā
The blonde woman opened her mouth, probably for another lash out, so that was the moment Bellamy interfered. He smiled gently at the stewardess because she wasnāt the one to blame for this situation. No one was.
āWould you be so kind to bring us some champagne, please? And maybe a few noshes?ā
āAbsolutelyā, returned the woman with a thankful smile and disappeared behind the curtain, while Clarke was giving him a dark glance.
āYou know she had been talking to me right?ā
āYeah, but she isnāt the one to blame for this situation, so you can keep your shit together and be more kind.ā Bellamy put Clarke into her place, which made her scoff loudly.
āIām not one of your motherās children!ā
āThen stop acting like one.ā
Clarke glanced darkly at him before grabbing her phone, getting up and mumbling that she needed to make a phone call. When she disappeared Bellamy punched himself against his forehead. He didnāt have any right to talk to Clarke like that. She was upset, just like everyone. It wasnāt like she could go home just like him. She had a hotel reservation, which might cause some problems if they got stuck in here much longer.
After a few moments the food and drinks were brought to their table before Clarke returned, a pissed look on her face but Bellamy decided to talk to her anyway.
āSorry about earlier,ā he started but the blonde didnāt seem to give a damn about it. Bellamy sighed. āNo luck with the hotel?ā
She grabbed her glass of champagne and emptied it in one gulp.
āSo I guess that is a no,ā mumbled Bellamy and took a sip from his own glass.
āNo. They told me I have to check-in within the next hour. Otherwise my reservation is invalid. And judging by the weather it doesnāt look like Iāll make it!ā She sighed desperately.
Bellamy offered her a gentle smile. āIām sure youāll be fine. There are a few hotels here in Chicago. Youāll find another one.ā
āHopefully one where I can afford a room ā¦ otherwise youāre stuck with me.ā The flirty grin was back on her lips. Her brows wiggled and Bellamy looked at her in amused confusion.
āStuck with you?ā He questioned.
āOh yeah. I mean you are living here right? Sure you have a room to spare.ā
āWell āā He started before being interrupted.
āOr maybe a bed to share,ā she added cheeky and made Bellamy chuckle. His mind was starting to picture her in his bed already, naked, while he tried to not letting let it show on his face.
āWhat makes you think I have a bed to share?ā
Fire glinting in her eyes when she answered, almost nonchalant.
āNo ring on your finger, wearing clothes that are screaming āIām a workaholic ā which you probably are considering youāre a broker - and donāt have time for anything seriousā and being all flirty with me for the past hour. It doesnāt look like there is someone waiting for you. And I donāt take you for the cheating type of guy.ā
Bellamy huffed in surprise. She hit the nail on the head. āNot bad,ā he admitted. She clearly had good knowledge of human nature. He licked his lips before confirming her suggestions.
āYou are right. But Iām not sure if I want to share my apartment with a stranger.ā
Of course he would. Especially with someone as hot and interested as Clarke. It wasnāt like he never had a one night stand before. Like Clarke said earlier, it was what he was doing all the time.
āStranger?ā She echoed in shock. āWe have been stuck in here for a little over an hour now. I wouldnāt call us strangers anymore Bellamy.ā
A hot shiver ran down his spine right to his cock at the sound of his name. It was the first time she said it and his name never sounded sweeter. He grinned, locking his eyes with hers, feeling the tension building up while they got another glass of champagne.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
They got stuck in the plane for three hours in whole.
Bellamy learned that Clarke was an only-child. That Wells Jaha was her best friend and that she had a cat named Molly when she was a kid. Her favorite color was green, she got a scar on her right knee because she fell from a horse when she was nine and she was a big fan of The Big Bang Theory and True Bloods which were the main reasons for visiting the convention.
In return Bellamy told her about his sister Octavia, his two best friends Murphy (who was a former soldier and now one of the best trauma surgeons in Illinois) and Miller (who worked for the government). They talked about their hobbies when Clarke asked him if he had been on a convention at least once in his life. No need to say that she was shocked when he answered with āNoā.
āAnd you are a groupie whoās stalking her favorites through the whole country?ā Asked Bellamy amused and Clarke stuck out her tongue, mumbling a long ānooooā and blushed ā again.
Bellamy started to like the pink color on her cheeks. Imagine it getting darker and darker with every thrust he deepened himself into her.
āSo, why are you going then?ā
āBecause Iām a groupie whoās chasing her favorites,ā joked Clarke and added, āAnd because Iām trying to catch up on the lost time I wasted in a two-year relationship. Now doing what I always wanted to do, you know.ā
āWas it that bad?ā
Clarke nodded. āPretty much. But ā¦ honestly, I donāt want to talk about it.ā
Bellamy just nodded when the pilot was talking through the micro again.
āThe airport just started the check-in again. There are nineteen other planes with us so we would like you to remain seated until itās our turn. We want to apologize one more time for the trouble and thanking you for your understanding and patience. Have a good further travel and good night.ā
The passengers were clapping loudly and everyone groaned in relief. Bellamy looked at his phone. It was half past one in the morning. Knowing that Clarkeās reservation was invalid for a little over an hour. He looked at her, a pained expression on her face. She rubbed her forehead and sighed loudly, clearly thinking about where to head to now.
It took them another 30 minutes to get their luggage because of the other nineteen planesā passengers that were waiting for theirs. The baggage claim was more than crowded and Bellamy arched his back and stretched his arms because of the long sitting. He got his suitcase first and waited for Clarke to get hers. She smiled at him in thanks.
āSo,ā he started slowly, walking through the exit and glancing at the blondeās profile, āif you want, you can stay at my place tonight.ā
Clarke stopped walking, having big and surprised eyes. āReally?ā
āYeah. I mean, you said it before, we arenāt complete strangers anymore and you donāt look like a murderer or a creepy person to me, even though you are visiting a convention ā and I have more than enough room anyway.ā
āWow, oh wow, that is ā thank you. Thatās so nice.ā A big smile appeared on her lips.
āNo problem.ā His heart definitely didnāt jump at her bright smile. Definitely not. Okay, maybe a little.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
They got out of the taxi 40 minutes later. ā500 West Superior Street,ā said the driver and Bellamy gave him a huge tip when he paid before heading after Clarke who stood in front of the building, her head in her neck and looking right to the top.
āThatās huge.ā
āItās not even the biggest,ā said Bellamy and got their suitcases out of the trunk before leading her inside a warm, shining marble floored foyer.
āGood evening Mister Blake,ā greeted Harper the receptionist with a kind and professional smile and Bellamy approached his sisterās friend to greet her while Clarke stopped in the middle of the foyer, looking around. āHello Harper. Any mail for me?ā
āOh yeah, but your sister got it already.ā Her eyes flickered towards Clarke for a split of second, a sassy smile starting to appear on her lips when Bellamyās brows shot up immediately.
āDonāt you dare to tell Octavia or the others,ā he mumbled, looking over his shoulders before watching the brunette biting down her grin.
āI would never,ā she said and Bellamyās mood went down at the realization that Harper wouldnāt listen to him and tell the others that he brought a woman with him anyway.
He groaned. āDonāt you have discretion or something?ā
āAm I a lawyer or a doctor?ā
His head fell down in resignation. āWe just got stuck for three hours in the fucking plane and she has nowhere else to go, okay? Please Harper. I know youāll tell them anyway but please wait until tomorrow okay? I canāt handle my sister or anyone else tonight.ā
He pleaded, which was a sign that he was god damn serious. He was tired as fuck and he just couldnāt handle his sisterās euphoric phone calls and the others teasing messages. It seemed like they had a lot of fun talking about Bellamyās love life, especially since it had died down after Gina almost eight months ago. He never had brought anyone with him since then. Not that he hadnāt had any sex, he just went to the girlās apartments to avoid a situation like this. Even though the last sex he had was over three months ago. Not that he was planning on hitting on Clarke ā¦ not if she didnāt want to at least. But that wasnāt any other personās business, so he let out a relieved breath when Harper agreed on staying silent.
āThanks.ā
āYeah, just for tonight Blake. Your sister will find out anyway.ā
Bellamy rolled his eyes and returned to Clarke, leading her to the elevator. His hand on the small of her back when he pushed her gently into it. Ignoring the heat rushing through his arm into his stomach because of the feeling of her body under his palm. He looked over his shoulder, catching Harper watching them with a bright, knowing grin. He stopped himself from groaning and pushed the button 28 instead.
āLiving above the others, huh?ā
āI like being on the top,ā winked Bellamy mischievously and clearly ambiguously.
āToo bad I like it too.ā
Bellamy grinned and licked his lips slowly, knowing Clarkeās eyes watching his movement. His eyes flashed over her face and he heard her breath starting to deepen. Her cheeks were still pink, little from the champagne and much more because of the look he was giving her, when the elevator came to a stop and opened with a ping. They stepped out into a corridor which lead to one door.
āIs this the corridor to the door of the Department of Mysteries?ā Chuckled Clarke and Bellamy stopped fishing his keys out of his pocket, a frown on his face.
āWhat?ā
Clarkeās feature slipped. āDepartment of Mysteries. Harry Potter? Oh, oh my God! Donāt tell me you never saw Harry Potter?!ā
Bellamy felt his ears turning red. āWell,ā he started but Clarke gasped in shock.
āYou canāt be serious. What kind of life are you living? No conventions, no Harry Potter?!ā Said Clarke like his inexperience was personally offending her.
āI saw Harry Potter,ā defended Bellamy himself, ālike ā eleven years ago or something?ā
It didnāt make it any better.
āEleven years? So youāve only seen the first four movies!ā
āDoes this make me a bad person now or ā¦?ā
āNo, but kind of weird.ā
Bellamy scoffed, āOh this coming from you.ā
āWhat? Do you think Iām weird?ā
He bit his tongue before saying anything too bad. Instead he asked, āDo you want to come in or not?ā He slit the key into the lock and opened the door, while Clarke mumbled, āSays the guy who reads a history book for fun.ā
Bellamy decided to ignore the comment and stepped inside, hearing Clarke following him, he switched on the light and a āHoly fucking shitā slipped out of Clarkeās mouth. This time Bellamy couldnāt hold back a grin. He closed the door, watching in complete satisfaction while Clarkeās widened eyes flew through the big room, over the wooden floor and back to him.
āOh my fucking God! Are you kidding me? This, this is your apartment?ā
āPenthouse,ā corrected Bellamy the blonde, amused and hung his jacket aside before leading her to the open kitchen.
āPenthouse?! Who are you ā Richard Gere? Because I definitely feel like Julia Roberts right now. You have seen Pretty Woman, right? Oh Godā¦ā She turned around, taking in her surroundings, still in disbelief and shock.
āOf course Iāve seen Pretty Woman,ā retorted Bellamy, leaning against a kitchen counter, while Clarke was standing in the middle of the big living area, letting her eyes fly over the windows, looking right outside into the city.
āI fucking canāt believe it,ā she breathed, āThis living room is bigger than my whole apartment.ā Her hands wandered over the couch. āHow much square footage do you have?ā She came closer, eyeing the kitchen made out of cherry wood.
āAlmost 5,000 āā
ā5,000 square feet?!ā Shrieked Clarke with a high pitched voice and causing pain in Bellamyās ears.
āFor you? This ā God! How much do you pay for this?ā
Normally Bellamy wouldnāt tell. Not only because you didnāt talk about money but also, and this was the more important reason, he didnāt want to give her a heart attack. He licked his lips, rubbing his neck like he was ashamed and answered anyway,
āAround $10,000.ā
To his own surprise Clarke stayed quiet. She blinked. Then,
āWhat? $10,000 per month?ā
āThatās how you usually pay rent, yes.ā
āWhat the he- $10,000 for a place to live? Are you sure you arenāt trading drugs on the exchange?ā
That made Bellamy chuckle. āIām positive yeah.ā
She huffed before shaking her head. āThis is too much, really. I have to sit down.ā She hopped onto the stool at the kitchen island and was still shaking her head. Bellamy eyed her in amusement, his arms crossed over his chest. Watching Clarke rake her hand through her blonde hair, made him imagine that it would be his own doing that. His eyes dropped down, feeling his throat going dry when they reached her breasts, so he cleared it, turning towards the fridge.
āWant something to drink?ā
āI thought you havenāt been home the last two weeks.ā
āI havenāt. But Iām sure my sister filled up the fridge after taking this place over, so ā what do you want?ā
āUhm, I donāt know. A water?ā
Bellamy looked over his shoulder, his eyebrows scooting up. āSeriously? Just water? No lemon slice or mint leaf?ā He teased and earned himself a stuck out tongue from Clarke.
āWell, what can you offer then?ā
He turned around and overviewed the drinks. āAlmost everything. Wine, champagne, water, juice, ice tea āā
āIce tea!ā
Bellamy grinned. āOkay, itās ice tea then.ā He grabbed the can and poured her a drink. āWant some cubes?ā
Clarke shook her head, āNo thank you.ā He smiled shortly. She did the same.
Bellamy took a sip, never letting go of Clarkeās eyes while she was doing the same. Which made him gulp even harder. When Clarke put down the glass she licked her lips, making Bellamy tightening his grip around the glass.
āSo Bellamy Blake, whatās your story?ā She asked interested, leaning forward and giving him an excellent view into her cleavage. It took all his willpower not to look at it (for too long).
āMy story?ā
āYeah ā¦ I mean, this is huge and it looks like itās all normal to you. But on the other hand you are visiting your mother and helping her out in her coffee shop, so ā whatās your story?ā
āOkay, well, itās not much. My sister and I were raised by my mother. We had less than $800 each month, sometimes even less. So I started working at 16. After finishing school I signed up for the army because of the good money. Then mom started dating a guy named Marcus Kane. He is a pretty good man. One she deserves. I was twenty-four back then. I resigned and started to go to school. Finance. Got a job at Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago for a year and have been working at the exchange for three years now. Thatās my story.ā
āThatās it? You are working at the exchange and can afford something like this?ā
āWhat should I say ā Iām pretty good at what I do.ā He winked and a mischievous grin spread over her lips.
āI bet you are.ā Clarke said āBut seriously ā how much do you earn with this?ā
Bellamy licked his lips, clearly feeling uncomfortable.
āOkay, okay, IĀ“ll change the question. What was your biggest win and your biggest lost?ā
āUfff ā¦ the biggest lost was, I donāt know, $50,000?ā
Her eyes widened again but she remained quiet, mouthing $50,000 silently.
āAnd my biggest win. It was about $80,000.ā
āOkay I have to ask you again ā how much do you earn? This is unbelievable!ā
āBetween $18,000 and $30,000.ā
āPer month?ā
Bellamy nodded, causing Clarke to knock back the rest of her drink at once. That was when he asked her about her story. She had been interrogating him like an FBI agent, so it was only fair to tell him at least as much.
Clarke started to blush again and yeah, he definitely liked it.
āWell,ā she wet her lips ā not that he kept watching her lips, no -, āmy story is quite the opposite. My mother is a CEO of a hospital in Washington and my dad worked for the NSA. So, Iām from Washington D.C. My, uhm, my dad died eight years ago, turning mine and my momās world upside down. He died of cancer and it was a really rough time for both of us. I fought with my mother almost every day and it was pretty bad. But, time heals wounds right? We started to get better but I couldnāt stay in D.C. any longer and started to travel through the USA. For the past two years Iāve been living with my best friend Wells and his fiancĆ©e Luna in Nashville. He moved there almost three years ago because of Luna and yeah. I never studied, even though I always wanted to. But when my dad died ā¦ I donāt know. It changed everything. I still donāt know what I want to do, which is kind of embarrassing because Iām 29 now and, well ā¦ Iām still looking for the right, for the perfect job you know? Iām fine with working for Wells but itās nothing I want to do forever. But I also donāt want my motherās money, which she always offers me anyway. I mean, I donāt need a fortune for living. I just want to do something I love and be happy. No offense.ā She added quickly and Bellamy waved her off, smiling.
āItās okay. I mean isnāt that what we all want to do? A job that makes us happy? A life that makes us happy?ā
āYeah,ā breathed Clarke and let her eyes wandering to the window again. She sighed. āThat would be great to find.ā
He scanned her profile, watching her teeth burying into her bottom lip. His eyes wandered over her rosy cheeks, along her neck and back to the breasts. He bit his inner cheek, feeling his blood running lower into his pants and the heat upon his neck. So he finished his glass of ice tea and looked at the clock. It was almost three a.m. He rubbed his eyes, tiredness hitting him out of nowhere and he suppressed a yawn.
āWhen do you have to get up?ā He asked and put their empty glasses into the sink.
Clarke scooted out of her thoughts and frowned, thinking.
āUhm, I donāt know. I have to be at the convention around 9. How long is it to the Hilton Chicago?ā
ā10 to 15 minutes car drive. Almost half an hour if you take the metro, brown line and purple one,ā told Bellamy and added, āBut at that time it doesnāt make a difference if you take a taxi or the metro.ā
Clarke chewed on her lip, nodding slowly. āOkay, then Iāll have to get up a little before eight I guess. You?ā
āIn almost three hours?ā
āThis early?ā
āYeah, I promised Octavia Iād help her with her thesis before heading to work, so ā three hours.ā
Clarke grimaced and shuddered. āThen we have to get you into bed I guess.ā
Bellamy chuckled, āWouldnāt mind some hours of sleep to be honest.ā
That was when Clarke hopped off the stool, Bellamy truly tried not to look at her bouncing breasts, and told him to show her her sleeping place. They didnāt even get out of the living area when she asked him amusingly, āIs there a forbidden corridor or room? You know, just like in the Beauty and the Beast?ā
Again her words curled his lips into a smile. What a nerd she was, he liked it. More than he should because they only knew each other for a few hours.
āEven if I had, Iām sure you wouldnāt listen. Just like Belle,ā he answered and Clarke punched him lightly into the shoulder. āWow, at least you have seen the Beauty and the Beast. Iām impressed.ā
He looked over his shoulder, his browās disappeared behind his curls, āI have seen every Disney classic at least four times, okay? Just because I havenāt seen Harry Potter doesnāt mean I donāt have any knowledge in films.ā
Clarke grinned as an answer, just like Octavia used to when she was eight. Bellamy shook his head at this memory and went along the floor in silence.
āSo, here is the bath- Clarke?ā He turned around, Clarke had disappeared. āClarke?ā Shouted Bellamy and looked around. Where the hell had she disappeared? He went back a little and a heavy gust waved through his hair. He knew immediately where she was. Sheād found the terrace. He leaned against the doorframe, watching Clarke facing the city lights, her hands onto the railing. The raining had stopped but was still in the air. He heard her taking a deep breath. His arms were crossed over his chest and he bit his inner cheek, while watching her.
āEnjoying the view?ā
Clarke chuckled, looking over her shoulder when she told him,
āI really do hate you Bellamy.ā
āThanks. I appreciate it.ā
She rolled her eyes, turning back to the view. āThis is unbelievable. The view is amazing.ā She mumbled, sounding like she was getting lost into it. Just like Bellamy got lost in watching her.
āIt really is,ā retorted Bellamy but instead of watching the lightened skyscrapers his eyes were laid down on her blonde curls and the deliciously looking curves which were hid under all these clothes. He licked his lips in hunger, before her question made him look up again.
āSo is this your strategy of seduction? Bringing the girls up here and then show them this monster terrace with this kill-worthing view?ā
āIf my charm isnāt enough, maybe?!ā
She grinned over her shoulders.
āDoes it work?ā He asked interested.
He grabbed his heart in played disappointment and hurt when she shook her head, āAbsolutely not.ā
āDamn,ā sighed Bellamy and made Clarke laugh. It echoed in his ears and in his head, making his heart beat faster, running through his whole body because it sounded like the voice of an angel. He grinned proudly, wanting to make her laugh again. The wind increased, so after a few more moments Clarke turned around and pushed past him. When she did, she was much closer than she had to be. Her breasts almost touching his chest and the small grin on her face told Bellamy that she did it on purpose.
When he showed Clarke the bathroom for a second time she was right there to let out a soft āWowā, going inside and taking a long look. The bathroom was huge, had a shower and a bathtub in it and ā"Is this a flat screen?ā She pointed at the switched off TV on the opposite wall (right in front of the tub).
"No, itās the queenās magical mirror from Snow White,ā teased Bellamy because it was her own fault, claiming he didnāt know anything about movies. āWill you ever stop?ā
Bellamy shook his head. āNope.ā
She rolled her eyes and groaned. āI know you know something about movies.ā
He grinned.
"If you want to take a shower tomorrow, the towels are in there.ā He pointed at the cabinet next to Clarke, who nodded shortly before the big mosaic picture caught her attention.
While Clarke was scanning the wall, Bellamy couldnāt help himself but watching the blondeās figure one more time. His eyes trailed up and down, making his jeans get tighter. He appreciated every inch of her body. The curvy legs and hips, the amazing breasts and when his eyes went up her neck towards her face he noticed through the mirror that Clarke had been watching him, watching her. He swallowed, feeling his cheeks heating up because she caught him checking her out! But judging by the fierce look she was giving him she didnāt care. Quite the opposite ā she was checking him out through the mirror, licking and biting her bottom lip when her eyes lingered over his forearms, causing his erection to become more visible.
Moments of silence passed by. Moments in which their eyes lingered on one another, none of them saying or doing anything. Not until Clarke faced him, leaning against the marbled basin, pushing her breasts out, more than necessary, making it impossible for him not to look at it. So his eyes slipped to her cleavage for two seconds before reminding himself of look into her eyes but it was too late. She had a knowing grin on her lips,
āLiking what you see?ā
His throat was dry, so he swallowed hard, not wanting to give away too much but knowing it was too late when he heard his raspy voice telling her, āMaybe.ā
Clarke tipped her head down, almost shyly, then she looked back at him, right into his eyes. She started chewing on her bottom lip again, driving Bellamy wild because that was all he wanted to do himself, capture her lip between his teeth, sucking and making her moan his name.
Without noticing Bellamy stepped closer, his eyes raked over her body while she crooked her head, studying him. He stopped an arm length in front of her, hearing her raked breath. His heart pumped wildly in its ribcage.
āWhat would you do if I told you that the terrace might have worked?ā Asked the blonde in a husky whisper, pitching his stomach because he could hear the want and lust in it.
He licked his lips, his eyes shooting from hers to her lips, lingering there far too long. He put one hand on the basin, starting to cage her between him and the marble.
āI donāt know. Wouldnāt speak for me right?ā He answered lowly; setting the other hand on Clarkeās other side and captured her, stepping closer. They were only a few inches apart. So close that their chests almost touched each other during their deep breathing. She bit down on her bottom lip, a little heavier than before, making him groan almost loudly, while looking up into his eyes. He started to drown into the blue, when her hands slowly moved over his chest, causing more heat. He felt her fingers wandering over his shoulders, clapping together behind his neck and started playing with the nape of it.
āThatās true,ā she mumbled, never letting go of his eyes. āSo, what would you do if I told you that your charm might have worked?ā
āWell then,ā Bellamy started and closed the remaining space between them, having her body flush against his, letting his hands scoop towards her hips and to the small of her back, making her shudder a little. āI would probably,ā his hand lifted her shirt a little, just as much as his hand could slip under it, touching her skin, ājust touch you here.ā His spread palm wandered to the small of her back, pushing her closer.
āAnd then what?ā Asked Clarke anticipating and eager, letting her own hand disappear into the mop of his hair, scratching her nails over his scalp, getting a deep sound out of the back of his throat.
āThen I would probably kiss you.ā
Her eyes shined with fire and lust, dropping to his lips when he remained still. His gaze flickering between the blue of her eyes and the red of her lips.
āWhat the hell are you waiting for then?ā She edged him on.
Bellamyās jaw clenched, breathing heavily through his nose and almost choking when Clarke pushed hard against his pelvis.
Yeah, what the hell was he waiting for? She couldnāt be more obvious that she was okay with all this. She pushed herself against him, hardening her grab around his neck, almost throwing her breasts into his face, watching him with the biggest eyes heād have ever seen, smirking in anticipation. Lingering for more.
But he was Bellamy, so he couldnāt just go for it. Instead he asked, āAre you sure?ā
That made Clarke roll her eyes and groan in annoyance.
āJust go for it Blake. We both know we want to know how I sound like screaming your god damn name.ā Her voice was rough, eyes dark and mischievous.
She leaned forward, their lips almost touching when she mumbled, āMake me scream your name.ā
That was what broke Bellamy out of his stillness. He groaned loudly, her words making his dick throb harder in his jeans and he closed the last inch between their lips. Crashing his own hard on hers.
She moaned immediately into his mouth, pulling him closer, sliding her foot over his leg before he grabbed her thighs, lifting her up and sitting her down onto the basin. He felt her feet lock behind him, pushing him further against her center, causing him to moan when his erection pushed hard against her body.
Bellamyās hand raked over Clarkeās side, cradling her face and letting his fingertips grab her blonde curls. His tongue licked along her lips and the second he felt her mouth open he scooted his tongue inside, earning himself a deliciously sounding groan out of the back of Clarkeās throat when his tongue hit hers. He started feeling dizzy, getting out of breath and the almost painful pressure in his jeans didnāt help either. His left hand wandered down, over Clarkeās shoulder towards her breast, grabbing it with his palm, squeezing it hard and making Clarke saying his name out of breath for the first time.
Heat was taking over his body and he lunged forward, deepening the kiss, pressing his hand harder against her breast, feeling her fingernails sinking into his shoulders, right through his shirt. She pushed her pelvis against his, both moaned impatient. That was when Bellamy pulled away, watching Clarkeās dark eyes, her swollen lips. Their foreheads touched each other and he heard her raked breathing while palming her breast, which she returned in pushing as hard as she could against his cock. They started panting. He swallowed, trying to wet his dry throat. Clarke bit her bottom lip, cheeks turning into a deep red.
Bellamy shot forward, capturing her bottom lip between his, sucking hard and letting his hands raise her shirt. She helped him get it off and his eyes lingered over the freed cleavage, wanting to see more. Wanting more he could touch. But first he put his lips onto her jaw, peppered it with hot open-mouthed kisses, along her neck. He started to bite and suck at is until she groaned loudly, echoing in the bathroom. āFuck,ā she hissed and shoved the few strands of hair out of her face, arching her back against him while Bellamyās mouth wandered over the curves of her breasts.
His finger pushed the cup of the bra aside so he could take her nipple into his mouth, moaning at the feeling of it against his tongue. His hands gripped her hips hard, sucking at the soft spot of hers, feeling her shuddering underneath him.
Clarkeās left hand leaned against the wall, knocking down his aftershave and the toothpaste when his teeth buried into her nipple, causing her to yell in lust. A smile appeared on Bellamyās lips because it truly was one of the best sounds he ever heard. Clarkeās right hand raked towards his belt, pulling him closer at first but then fumbling with the buckle. Her nails scratching right into his skin above it, making his erection grow harder.
He let go of her breast, kissing his way upwards to her lips, pushing his tongue against hers again before feeling her hands on the hem of his shirt. She didnāt have to say anything, with one swift movement the shirt was out and Bellamy unclasped her bra, throwing it away. He groaned loudly when her heavy breasts bumped down, her nipples as hard as his crook.
āFuck,ā he muttered and swallowed. āFuck Clarke,ā he started but she lunged forward and pulled him into a fucking delicious and promising kiss. His hands tangled back to her hair, while hers scratched over his skin, making him hiss in pain because her nails burrowed into him. She panted against his mouth, letting her lips wander along his jaw, towards his ear and biting into his earlobe, making his grip harder.
Her open mouthed went along his neck and Bellamy pushed her hair away, giving her neck the same treatment. When she started to bite, so did he. When she licked at his skin, he did the same. He also pushed his erection right against her when she pushed up against him. They both moaned loudly, open mouthed.
āBed,ā whispered Clarke pleadingly and her voice was rough, almost broken.
Bellamy swallowed, nodding hastily. āYeah.ā
He grabbed her thighs and pulled her up, leading her into his bedroom which had a big window in the front (with an excellent view on the city as well, but it seemed like Clarke didnāt really care about it this time).
He let her down on the mattress, crawling above her, pushing her down and kissing along her neck. Her fingers lingered through his curly hair, her moaning driving him wild. He braced himself with one arm next to Clarkeās head while his other hand palming her chest, making her back arch hard against him. She threw her legs around him, pushing him down and swallowed his loud moan with a long kiss.
It took them almost forever to get at each otherās pants. Clarke was the first. Her fingers unbuckled his belt after playing with it and teasing him almost to death. Her feet pushed the jeans down and he sighed in relief when at least the heavy jeans were off of his cock. He let his tongue slip around Clarkeās neck, taking her earlobe right into his mouth before groaning loudly, panting, when he felt her hands pressing over the fabric of his briefs. He heard her chuckle at that and bit down a little harder, making her gasp again.
Then it was him who took off her pants, along with her underwear, though her protests.
āHey,ā she yelled but stopped immediately when his palm rubbed over her inner thigh. Bellamy licked his lips, leaning down again, kissing Clarke and letting his hand wander up and down her thigh but never touching her where she wanted him to. He was teasing her, on purpose.
āBellamy,ā panted Clarke warningly and making his eyes glint in amusement.
āWhat?ā
āStop teasing.ā
He smirked, putting his lips closely to her left ear, mumbling a rough āI havenāt even startedā.
She was about to complain when his fingertips brushed her pussy just so lightly, nothing more like a feather. But it was enough to make her gulp her breath. He grinned and did it again, educing a long āOhā out of her.
He licked his lips, feeling the heat inside his body watching her falling apart underneath him, without him doing anything but touching her feather lightly, turned him on even more.
āOh?ā He repeated and let his teeth scratch over the skin of her neck, while her fingers clutched into the blanket. āDidnāt you say you wanted to scream my name?ā
His finger hovered over her entrance, waiting for her to say it. But instead she opened her eyes, looking at him when she challenged him, āMake me.ā
āNothing easier than this,ā gave Bellamy back and Clarke tensed all along when he pressed his finger against her clit, rubbing it slowly. She bit down her bottom lip, like she was holding herself back from saying his name. Bellamy grinned, putting more effort into his doing, pushing a little harder and getting another āOhā out of her mouth.
āCome on Clarke. Say it, say my name like you wanted toā, said Bellamy with his deep and husky voice, his throat going dry again.
She bit down on her lip again, a grin spreading over her face. Which made Bellamy almost chuckle. Thatās when he stopped rubbing at her clit, waiting a few seconds for Clarke, frowning and looking up in question when he pushed his finger inside of her without any warning. Her jaw dropped and a loud, a very loud āOh God!ā filled the room. He felt her wetness around his finger, making him almost get off immediately. He cranked his finger up, pushing harder and making her walls tightened around it. He grunted, burying his face into her neck, telling himself not to move faster because it felt too good.
He added another finger, kissing her neck and taking her nipples back between his teeth. He licked at her, making her shudder and then a loud and almost desperate āBellamy,ā fell from her lips when he added a third finger, thrusting hard into her pussy. Her nails sank into his skin so hard that he knew that the lines would still be there tomorrow. Her walls tightened around his finger when he moved faster, unable to stop himself because her panting, her little āOh Godā and āYeah, faster, pleaseā making him want to fell over the edge. So he didnāt stop. He pushed harder, faster and swallowing her moan when she came with his mouth, getting goose bumps by feeling her closing around his fingers.
Her jaw clenched and her eyes were shut down when she came down from her orgasm. She swallowed hard and Bellamy smiled, peppering her neck with soft kisses. But instead of waiting for her to calm down he dropped his mouth down her body, over her chest and her stomach, settling right between her legs.
A mischievous grin played on his mouth when he looked upwards, watching her biting on her bottom lip, clearly not ready for another round.
āJust give me a sec,ā she mumbled. āI just canāt āā
āDonāt worry, Iāll make you,ā promised Bellamy and turned towards her hot and rosy spot. His eyes lingered over her pussy, he licked his lips in anticipation and couldnāt wait to taste her with his mouth.
āNo, Bellamy, really I ā oooh!ā
He had put his mouth onto her, starting with one soft and long stroke. Her legs quivered at the contact, while her hip pushed itself against him. He held her still with his hands, hearing her panting. He took his time before licking her again, then his teeth scratched the inside of her vulva.
āOh Godā Her hands wandered over her stomach right into his hair, tugging and scratching, making him moan against her. The vibration made Clarke sigh his name in return.
He let his tongue move over her clit again and again, starting to suck at it. Her panting getting louder and louder, mixing āOh Godā with āBellamyā more often and the sound of it reaching right to his cock which was still trapped in his briefs.
Clarkeās body started to shake, she was getting closer. Bellamy sucked harder, pushing his tongue against her pussy and moaning at the sweet sound of his name. His thumb slipped over her clit, rubbing hard circles against it, sucking and licking her as fast and hard as he could, feeling him getting thicker and thicker. Clarke shaking underneath him, tugging at his hair with one hand and grabbing the headboard hard with the other, screaming a loud āBellā¦ā before falling over the edge.
His heart sped like hell, the throbbing in his briefs was almost too painful at this stage. He swallowed hard, gulping for air as well before crawling upwards Clarkeās body, kissing her. Making her taste herself on his tongue.
āOh God,ā she whispered when she shoved him away because she clearly hadnāt her breath under control again. She swallowed, wiping the sweat from her forehead and squeezing her eyes shut before looking at him. Her cheeks red like hell, her neck and chest flushed from the orgasms he had given her, which filled him with satisfaction.
āI really hate you,ā she breathed
Bellamy grinned. āYou already said that.ā He rolled over to his side, bracing himself at his forearm and running his other hand softly over Clarkeās skin.
They remained silent for a short time, just eyeing and smiling at each other. Then Clarke started biting down on her bottom lip again and Bellamy scooted down pulling it between his own, wanting to make this kiss kind of unchaste and almost innocent but Clarke clearly didnāt share his attention and slipped her hand into his hand before lingering for his tongue, wanting it to follow hers.
A soft smile spread over Bellamyās lips when he cradled himself above Clarke again, still keeping his mouth on hers when he felt her fingers wandering down to his ass, pulling down his underwear. It was a curse and a blessing at the same time when she took the briefs off and his cock was released. It pumped back hard against him and when Clarke pushed her hip a little upwards she touched the head of his dick with her hot and still wet vadge.
A muffled sound left Bellamyās mouth at that contact and he cursed a low āFucking shitā when Clarke did it again.
Bellamy swallowed, feeling the heat crawling through his body and resisted the urge to just push into her, hard and deep. He had to close his eyes for a second to muster all his strength before looking down into the big blue eyes and the almost dirty smirk of Clarkeās. He wet his lips, feeling her foot wandering over his ass, ready to push him down.
āC-Condom first,ā he cracked and reached for the cupboard to get one out. He just grabbed one when Clarkeās fingers closed around him and pumped it slowly up and down.
āOh shit!ā Shouted Bellamy and groaned loudly, trying to get back as fast as he could. But Clarke didnāt stop, making his penis pulsing dangerously fast.
āClarkeā¦ā His voice broke away and he gritted through his teeth, āYou should stop. O-o-otherwise, oh fuck!ā He put his hand around her small wrist, making her stop pumping, holding the condom in the other hand and taking a few deep breaths before telling her,
āYou should stop if you want me to go any further.ā
Clarke licked her lips, so slowly that it was almost enough to bring him over the edge for good.
āOkay.ā
She pulled her hand away from his dick and let her fingers wander over his chest and his arms, right to his shoulders when he pulled on the condom and settled himself above her.
He put his forearms besides her head, lowering himself down and entered. Their foreheads were pressed against each other, their eyes were closed when he got deeper and deeper. Inch for inch. Both panting, moaning before Bellamy pulled her into a sweet kiss. He let his mouth caress her lips, slipping his tongue softly against hers, pulling out of her completely, waiting and thrusting back inside as slowly as before.
Her fingernails scratched his skin lightly, legs crossing over his ass, meeting him in his thrusts. He sucked at her bottom lip before kissing her jaw once more, petting her neck and feeling the heat increasing again. Her legs tightened, pulling him closer and keeping him in place. His thrusts didnāt leave her anymore. He braced himself harder against the mattress, letting his right hand wander down over her breast to her leg, adjusting it a little higher so he could thrust deeper into her. His lips and teeth along her soft skin on her neck and shoulder.
With the new angle they both panted faster, moaned louder and Bellamy quickened up at his pace. He bit down at her skin, slinging one arm underneath her back to hold her into place when he buried himself deeper and harder into her. The left had grabbed the headboard.
āFuck Clarke, I- I canāt hold off any longer,ā mumbled Bellamy with all strength he still had, sweat covering his body.
āYou donāt have ā just ā oh, okay ā just harder, harder Bellamy!ā
She winced, her legs closing around him completely and her hands clutching onto him like a lifeline.
He licked his lips, watching Clarke closing her eyes, her face getting redder and her mouth forming loud and silent āOhsā.
He paced up one more time, thrusting so hard into her that the bed started to shake. The headboard slammed against the wall and if Bellamy wasnāt about to come he would have worried about the bed braking but right now he couldnāt care less. He held Clarke as close as he could, feeling her walls shutting down around him, screaming his name like a prayer, like a salvation when he felt his dick pulsing hot and fast. He panted into her neck, thrusting deeper and deeper. Groaning a āfuck Clarkeā before following her over the edge.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The piercing sound of his alarm woke him mercilessly out of his sleep. With a moan Bellamy switched it off, eyes still closed and his sleep-drunken body fought against waking up. He felt hungover, even though he hadnāt been drinking (that much) yesterday. Bellamy breathed heavily through his nose, pressing the ball of his hands into his closed eyes before forcing himself to open them. He yawned and started to stretch when he looked to his side, facing the sleeping figure of Clarkeās back. Her blonde curls fell over her back, which was barely covered with a blanket. His eyes scooted down to where it disappeared, feeling his cock throbbing again, more in lust than because of the morning erection. He couldnāt help himself but smile a little, cursing his promise to Octavia because otherwise he could have remained in bed, pulling the woman closer and maybe, just maybe, going for another round.
He stayed still for a few seconds before forcing himself out of bed. Before heading to the bathroom he looked over his shoulder, making sure Clarke was still asleep. After a quick shower, which made his muscles relax a little, he went back to the bedroom, finding Clarke on his side of the bed now, burying herself deep into the pillow. The man started to smile at this picture and tiptoed to the drawer, getting dressed before leaving a short note on the cupboard.
If you need a place to crash tonight, call me. 773-555-8955
Bellamy
He resisted the urge to bend down to give her a peck. It was way too crazy anyway, he didnāt have to make it weirder than it already was. So he got out of the bedroom, but not without checking on Clarke one more time, taking her in, hoping that this wouldnāt be the last time he laid his eyes on her and closed the door.
He grabbed his bag and his cell phone which he forgot in his jacket last night and groaned loudly when he saw the four missed calls from Octavia and the 30 messages in their group chat.
Harper [2:54 a.m.]: I canāt keep it to myself any longer. Sorry Bellamy.
Jasper [2:55 a.m.]: What?! oO
Harper [2:55 a.m.]: He brought a girl home.
Miller [2:55 a.m.]: Are you sure?!
Jasper [2:55 a.m.]: o_O
O [2:56 a.m.]: OMG! Donāt screw us Harper!
Harper [2:56 a.m.]: Iām not. It was a blonde beauty. He said they got stuck in the plane for three hours and she had no place to go.
Jasper [2:56 a.m.]: Still: o_O
O [2:57 a.m.]: Blonde beauty huh? Thatās new.
Monty [2:58 a.m.]: Thanks to you Jasper is dancing and singing and Iām awake now! -.-
Miller [2:58 a.m.]: What a gentlemanā¦
Harper [2:59 a.m.]: Sorry Monty **hug**
Jasper [3:00 a.m.]: Iām just happy for my friend Bellamy!
O [3:01 a.m.]: Itās still weird that you are dancing Jas! Do you have a picture of her Harper?
Harper [3:01 a.m.]: :-/ No, sorry
Raven [3:21 a.m.]: He brought a girl home? Canāt believe it!
Murphy [3:24 a.m.]: You canāt? Well then come over. I really hate living above you Bellamy!
O [3:24 a.m.]: Try to live with him in the same four walls for almost fourteen years!
Harper [3:25 a.m.]: Should I call him and tell him that there is a complaint? xD
Raven [3:25 a.m.]: He wonāt hear it. When Bellamy is doing what he is doing he is doing it pretty good.
O [3:26 a.m.]: Urgh, Raven! Itās my brother!
Raven [3:26 a.m.]: xDDD
Murphy [3:27 a.m.]: He doesnĀ“t have to be this loud. Seriously, I can hear almost everything! Iām scared that they are going to crush through the ceiling any moment!
Miller [3:28 a.m.]: No comment needed!
Jasper [3:30 a.m.]: He needs to let off a lot of pressure considering Gina happened almost eight months ago.
O [3:31 a.m.]: Ok, Iām out now. I donāt really want to think about my brotherās dick!
Monty [3:32 a.m.]: **rofl**
Murphy [3:59 a.m.]: Round three ā¦ fuck you Blake!
Jasper [4:01 a.m.]: I think the mysterious blonde is already doing that.
Murphy [4:02 a.m.]: Shut up Jasper!
Thatās when the conversation ended. Bellamy groaned, rubbing his forehead and decided that it would be better not to say anything. So he slipped his phone back into his jacket and went outside. Regretting his promise to Octavia even more.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
It had been a long day when Bellamy returned to the complex. He was still tired, hadnāt slept more than two hours last night and more than disappointed because he had been watching his cell phone all day and Clarke didnāt contact him. No call, no message from an unknown number. Instead he had to deal with his annoying sister and his friends, getting a sermon from Murphy about keeping it quiet the next time otherwise he would have to kill him and some other, really unimportant things.
He leaned against the elevators wall, his head against the metal and a loud sigh escaping his mouth, eyes shot. It was weird. He shouldnāt be as disappointed as he was just because a woman he just had known for a few hours (and he had amazing sex with) didnāt call him. It was a one night stand. Nothing more. It wasnāt that he wasnāt used to it. It was what he was doing for a long time now, but ā¦ he still felt disappointed. With a ping the door opened and Bellamy stepped into the corridor, fumbling his keys out of his pocket without looking up. A smile curled around his lips, hearing her voice in his head when she had asked him last night if this was the corridor to the Department of Mysteries. He chuckled and shook his head, looking up and froze dead in his tracks.
There she was, the blonde beauty, leaning against the wall with a shy smile on her face. āHey.ā
āHey,ā retorted Bellamy and felt his lips curled up. He came closer, still processing that she was standing in front of his door, clearly waiting for him.
āHow was your day?ā She asked almost nonchalant and Bellamy shrugged, āOkay ā¦ how was the con?ā
āOkay,ā answered Clarke softly. He looked into her eyes, feeling how he was getting lost. He raised his hand, putting it gently against her cheek, caressing his thumb over the soft skin before asking quietly,
āOnly okay?ā
She nodded, biting her lip shortly before whispering, āYeah ā¦ had to think about you all the time. Which was pretty distracting.ā
āDonāt tell me,ā he huffed and then leaned down, pulling her into a sweet, chaste and pretty long, slowly kiss, He felt her arms closing around his neck, pulling herself against him and while his right hand cradled deeper into her hair, his left arm slung around her waist. Both started smiling and Bellamy knew that this wouldnāt be the last time he would find Clarke Griffin waiting for him at his door.
