Summary
“Bellamy! You—you need to go back, now. Turn around and run. There's a manual override, but it won't give us enough time. We won't make it back. Not both of us.”
“If you think I'm leaving you here, you're insane. Tell me how to override it, and you go back.”
“You'll die if you stay behind,” Clarke grits out, yanking the pack and cord and glancing at her watch. Just under ten minutes now. Her heart stutters. “Bellamy, if you don't go now—”
“I'm not leaving you,” Bellamy says fiercely, reaching out to grasp the pole of the tower, mimicking her motions with a stubborn set to his jaw. “Either we both make it, or neither of us do. Now tell me what to do, and let's get it done.”
Clarke closes her eyes briefly, swallowing down her frustration and grief. Now isn't the time for it. She knows that changing Bellamy’s mind is next to impossible when he's dead-set on something. She just wishes he wasn't so set on dying alongside her.
“Climb,” Clarke snaps, then proceeds to take her own advice, focusing on the task at hand.
~~~
Or, the one where Bellamy and Clarke are stranded together on the last inhabitable patch of earth for six years and seven days.
