HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY HELLAMBELLAMY. I am a terrible person and was going to write a Bellarke one-shot earlier... My sincere apologies! There's a snippet below, and the full story is at the link.Â
I hope it doesn't suck!
(~ Jo.)
HOW TO HEAL
It is not the reunion either of them dreamed of, but at least it is a reunion.
Bellamy looks beaten in a way Clarke has only seen once before, a way that has little to do with the blood smeared into his cheek, his cracked and bruised lower lip, or the deep scratch extending from the collar of his shirt to just behind his ear. He just seems… deflated somehow. It hurts her to gaze into those dead eyes and so she avoids it. Not him, of course; avoiding him is pointless and detrimental to their cause. Just the haunted darkness in his expression.
Clarke, on the other hand, is terrifying. Bellamy always knew she was strong, even stubborn when she disagreed with him… but now something in her has turned fierce. He wonders and is afraid to ask, because the idea of knowing exactly what she did to get back to him is too much. His imagination has already filled in most of the blanks with nightmares, anyway. So now, surrounded by their people - no, fuck that, their friends - Bellamy asks a question.
It is not exactly the question he wants to ask, but it is close enough.

a birthday bsg AU for hellamybellamy, because i mentioned doing a full blown bsg AU to her ages ago, and just haven't got the time to do it. some birthday fluff for the ever lovely birthday girl (well. as fluffy as one can be when bringing bsg into the mix).
based off unfinished business because who doesn't like to be scarred emotionally by an episode of a science fiction show over and over?
so yeah. happy birthday Katelyn!
unfinished business
It was late. The sun had long since set on New Caprica, the loud and excited celebrations easing slightly, a more sedate atmosphere taking over the town. Clarke was sitting at the edge of the makeshift stage, draining the last of the drink from her glass.
"Hey."Â
Clarke looked up to see Bellamy approaching, glasses in hand. He held one out to her wordlessly, Clarke nodding her thanks.Â
Suddenly, Bellamy snorted. "Wow. You actually drank Finn under the table."Â
Clarke glanced over to her passed out boyfriend, who was lying face first in the dirt where he'd collapsed. "Yeah, well - not all my drinking partners are raging alcoholics, you know."
"I can hold my drink, thats entirely different to being an alcoholic."
Clarke was quiet for a second. "Where's Raven?"
"She left early." Bellamy shrugged. "Felt like an early night."
"Unusual for her."
"Its been a long week."Â
"Guess its just you and me then." Clarke said, gazing over at Bellamy. He was in his dress uniform, the deep blue a stark contrast to the olive tones of his skin.Â
"Yup." Bellamy returned the gaze, the tension between them becoming almost unbearable, even in those short few seconds. "I guess it is, princess."
Clarke swallowed nervously, clutching onto her drink. She shouldn't want this, shouldn't want him anymore. Her and Bellamy were explosive, and complicated and the last thing she needed to do was ruin her relationship with Finn for one more night with Bellamy.
But God, she wanted him.
"I need another drink." Clarke said, downing what remained of the glass Bellamy had given her.Â
"Want to sneak a bottle?" Bellamy offered, jerking his head over to the makeshift bar.Â
Clarke found herself nodding, despite every logical part of her brain screaming at her that this was a terrible idea. The not so logical parts of her brain simply argued that she and Bellamy had done worse.
(Much worse)
It was hours later when Clarke grabbed Bellamy's hand, getting drunkenly to her feet. "Come with me."
"What? Why, where are we going?"
"Just trust me." Clarke said, linking their arms and pulling him into the dense, dry undergrowth. They trudged through the trees, and across the sand for a few minutes before Clarke stopped, throwing her arms out delightedly, almost hitting Bellamy in the face.
"What?" Bellamy looked confused.
"Isn't this a great place to build a house?" Clarke said. "Open space - it can be as big as I want, nothing like our bunks on Galactica - and the ocean."
Bellamy was quiet for a second. "You're really going to do it, huh? Quit flying, settle down on New Caprica."
"Flying is going to suck now anyway - just training, and boring patrols." Clarke shrugged. "The war is over Bell."
Bellamy was quiet for a second. "Give me a tour then - of the future life of Clarke Collins."
"I'm not - I'm not getting married." Clarke said, reeling at his words. "Why would you say that?"
"You love him though, right? Finn, you love him?" Bellamy said, stumbling slightly on an uneven patch of ground. "And you're not getting married. Tell me then Clarke, what is the point of all this?"
"Where is this going Bellamy?"
"Yeah. Where is this going - the big question." Bellamy said, closing the distance between them. "Is this what you want? Is this really how Clarke Griffin, the mighty Viper pilot wants to live out her days? Is Finn the person you want to spend the rest of your life with?"
"Don't make this about us." Clarke shook her head.
"Why?" Bellamy demanded. "It always comes back to us Clarke. You and me."
The air between them felt heavy as neither of them said another word, Bellamy's cards on the table. Clarke couldn't help herself, and she forcefully pressed her lips to his in a desperate kiss. She should stop, they should stop but she couldn't, and God, she didn't want to.
"Well," Clarke said, her breathing heavy. "That makes things more complicated."
"Yeah."
"Bell, what are we going to do?"
Bellamy shifted suddenly, moving so that Clarke could face him properly. "We accept it. Tomorrow I tell Raven, you tell Finn - and we accept it. You and me could be amazing Clarke and you know it - I don't, I don't want to give up. This time we just accept it."
"Just like that..."
"Life can be that simple." Bellamy said. "It can Clarke."
"I don't know..."
"We just - we tell them how we feel." Bellamy said, grinning suddenly. "We shout it to the skies."
Clarke rolled her eyes. "Yeah. Sure."
"You don't think I would?"
"You, Bellamy Blake, shout your feelings? I don't believe you." Clarke said, laughing. "You do not share how you feel - not with anyone, and definitely not at the top of your lungs."
Bellamy simply grinned, kissing Clarke lightly before untangling himself from her, and standing up.
"Bellamy! Don't you dare -"
"My name is Bellamy Blake, and I love Clarke Griffin!"
"Say it a little louder Bell, I don't think they heard you on Galactica."
"MY NAME IS BELLAMY BLAKE, AND I LOVE CLARKE GRIFFIN."
Clarke wasn't sure if she was drunk on alcohol, or love, or both, but something made her struggle to her feet.Â
"I LOVE CLARKE AND I DON'T CARE WHO FRAKKING KNOWS!"
"You're insane." Clarke laughed.
"Just when it comes to you."Â
Clarke closed the space between them, kissing him softly.Â
"You going to say it?"
"What?"Â
Bellamy tucked a stray strand of blonde hair behind her ear. "Are you going to say it, princess?"
"No way, I can't!"
"I'm just going to have to keep going then." Bellamy shrugged. "BELLAMY BLAKE LOVES -"
"Ssh." Clarke put a hand over his mouth, trying to shut him up. "I'll do it."
Bellamy grinned. "I'm waiting, princess."
'CLARKE GRIFFIN LOVES BELLAMY BLAKE!" Clarke roared at the top of her lungs, surprising even Bellamy.Â
"I do love you princess." Bellamy said quietly. "We can do this."
Clarke nodded, not trusting herself to say anything. For now, it was perfect - for now she could delude herself into thinking that her and Bellamy could work this time around and they could be a normal, functional couple and she could believe the war was over and they could stop fighting for their lives and just be frakking happy.
She could believe all that tonight and come tomorrow Clarke knew she'd get scared, and she'd leave, and she'd break all her promises and burn all her and Bellamy's bridges but for now... For now they had tonight and they were in love and maybe that was as good as it was going to get for them.
