    Summary

    “You do look really nice,” chimes in— Roma, she thinks— Bellamy’s plus one, a beautiful and leggy brunette. “That colour looks so good on you!”

    Clarke glances down at her shimmery green dress. It is nice, she admits. It’s beautiful in fact. But her mother gave it to her to wear specifically to this party; even though she’d wanted to go more reserved, her mother had insisted that it was important her daughter looked good tonight. And that alone makes it unworthy of praise in Clarke’s eyes. “Thanks.”

    “That colour looks like vomit,” Bellamy comments helpfully. Clarke idly wonders why the planners have seated them at the same table.

    “Be nice,” Roma chides him with a tinkly laugh, hitting his shoulder. He remains unrepentant, sipping his drink and raising his eyebrows challengingly at Clarke.

    Clarke glances around, making sure none of the adults are around before replying, “Go to hell, Bellamy.”

    Bellamy pretends to check his watch. “I’ve already been here for two hours.”

    Summary

    In the mornings, Abby and Jake would take Clarke out to do something in town, and Aurora would take Octavia and Bellamy. The afternoons were often spent together, and in the evenings, the two families would convene in the gardens, and have dinner together. The adults might drink a little and Clarke would take Bellamy down to the water and teach him to swim.

    The Griffins spend every summer in their house by the lake. This year, they have some new neighbours, and Clarke is taken pretty quickly with the freckled boy next door.

    Summary

    It's time to vote for Dropperton-Shipley University's annual yearbook superlatives! Octavia gets the genius idea to nominate grad student Bellamy and senior Clarke for Cutest Couple, despite the fact that they unquestionably loathe each other. The rest of the group thinks this is the best idea ever, and they each vow to get their respective departments to vote. The only person not on board is Finn. Will he screw up the whole scheme? If they win, will this make Bellamy and Clarke see each other differently, or will it only make them hate each other more? Based on a random Tumblr prompt that was totally intended for someone else.
