Summary
"And with this new deal, I can pay that off ahead of schedule," she says, forcing her voice to be perky and bright.
"Can." Rio says it flat, but the corner of his mouth curves up, and he folds his hands around his cue, leaning forward slightly. "Not have."
"Will," Beth insists. "Soon."
"Yeah, I'm still not seeing why we havin' this conversation right now."
Instead of answering, Beth yanks on the zipper, ripping open the duffle bag exposing the neat packets of cash stuffed inside, then stepping back and gesturing to it like a game show host.
That faint curve curls and stretches, a full smile spreading across his face. It's sly and amused, satisfied in the way he usually is when presented with a pile of money, but there's something else in it too, something heated and vaguely threatening that makes Beth's stomach flutter in response.
"A'ight, tell you what. You wanna have this conversation so bad?" Rio gestures at the table with his cue. "Play you for it."

Summary
“You’re soulmated,” Bellamy says, and it’s exactly what Clarke feared his reply would be. She waves a hand as dismissively as she can.
“You can still have friends when you’re soulmated.”
He watches her with dark eyes. “You can’t have friends like us.”
--
Soulmates AU. Clarke and Bellamy grow up together... but they’re not soulmates.
