Bellarke Fanfiction Recs

Clarke has read the old books from Earth, has read stories about soulmates, and knows that Bellamy Blake and her are not those types of soulmates. Ark soulmates do not have destined hearts and complimentary souls. The match percentage simply means that of all the eligible men in her age range on the Ark, Bellamy and she have the best chance at producing a genetically superior child. That’s it, that’s all. But despite this, it is magical in its own way, if it is what helps the Ark survive. Maybe their descendent will return to Earth one day and it will be because of this paper—because she is Bellamy Blake’s soulmate.

It's a shock to both Bellamy and Clarke when they're assigned soulmates, but they have no choice but to try to live with one another.

Clarke Griffin was born in space, where her life had been mapped out for her: become a doctor like her mother, be a dutiful daughter and friend, match with a partner and have a child, so the human race could continue to live.

It had been an easy life to contemplate, because there were no choices. There was only one path for her to follow, and only one life.

Being branded a criminal and being sent to the ground changed all of that.

Finding out there were people alive on earth changed it all again.

Suddenly she was free.

Suddenly she was faced with thousands of choices, very few of them easy or simple.

Except one.

“Please,” he sniffs, working to sound dismissive despite the fact that he’s playing with her hair, “you’re the one who dragged me into a closet to make out. What are we, hormonal sixteen year olds?”

She sighs, props her chin up against his shoulder. “Despite what you believe, you’re actually only twenty three. Groping each other in dark closets is well within the age range.”

Or: Six months after they’ve saved the world, and the five times Bellamy and Clarke are nearly caught in their secret relationship (+ the one time they are.)

But she got used to it. To him."

He turns his head to the side to look at her, so Clarke mirrors him. They aren't touching, but they're lying close, fingertips nearly brushing. The moment stretches out, spanning centuries in just a few breaths. Anything is possible here.

The surviving delinquents are sitting around the dropship, knees pulled to their chests, heads buried between their knees. Clarke can’t blame them for looking so weary, really. They’re too young to have just fought a battle, too young to know war so personally, too young to live with the fact that they just finished incinerating hundreds of grounders, hundreds of people.

Death is everywhere on the ground; it’s unavoidable. It’s remarkable that so many of them had survived for this long.

"It wasn’t a debate. She was going to start the search for apartments again, and, yeah, she wasn’t going to find a place this cheap, but she was willing to pay for the luxury of forgetting that Bellamy existed, and never, ever having to deal with his lunacy again.

The moment that she found a place, she was gone."
