<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span class="fixed-color" style="color:#99ff99">"Now that we've gotten to them before Diyoza or McCreary or any of their people have, let's get the fuck out of here and get back to my place." Clarke said, as she kept her gun pointed out in front of her. "I've managed to keep them from finding my place, but if they spot us in the trees, they'll give chase, and I don't want them to find Jake or Madi, and I don't want to be away from Jake and Madi for too long. Couples will have their own room back at my place. And those who are single, can share with the other single people."<br/>
<br/>
"Madi has her own room, and Jake and I share a room. If anyone needs anything during the night, don't knock on the door to my bedroom or I'll shoot you. Call out my name and stay away from my bed, or again, risk getting shot. Also, just to let you all know, Madi and I are always on alert. The smallest sound will wake us up and have us reaching for a gun or knife. Now, I know noise in going to happen, but, try to be quiet.. For all of our safety." </span></span></span><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><span class="fixed-color" style="color:#99ff99">After she had spoken, the blonde led them all back to her place and spent the next half an hour doling out bedrooms. </span></span></span><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(153, 255, 153)"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><span style="font-size: 15px"><br/>
Then, she thanked Josh, Harper, and Monty for looking after the kids. After she checked in on Madi, who had fallen asleep reading, she saved the girl's book, and tucked her in. Then, she checked on Jake. And a few moments later, smiled as she stood in the doorway of her bedroom, where the moonlight went across the bed and allowed her to see that her son was sleeping peacefully. Once she had gotten her fill of watching Jake sleep, she returned to the living room and dropped down onto the couch and sighed softly as she tried to relax. <br/>
<br/>
The last six years had been the hardest of her life. Clarke hoped that with the return of her friends.. no.. family.. That things would get easier. Trying to stay alive was already challenging, but raising Jake and Madi, as much as she loved them, and she loved them more than anything... it made her feel like there was never enough time or that she<br/>
could never do enough for them. She was so glad to have some of her family back. She knew that she could trust them and count on them for help. Now, her life wouldn't be about just fighting and surviving.</span></span></span><br/><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(153, 255, 153)"><span style="font-size: 15px"><br/>

Echo laid on the bed beside Bellamy. She hadn't said much to him since they'd returned to Earth, even though she had a lot of questions for him. She wanted to demand answers from him about when he and Clarke had slept together, and what he was going to do now that he knew he had a kid with the blonde. She also wasn't sure what she wanted from him. Part of her admitted, if only to herself, that she wanted to keep him to herself and be selfish for a little while longer. But on the other hand, she also knew that any man who turned his back on his child and the child's mother, was not a man she wanted. <br/>
</span></span><br/>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><span class="fixed-color" style="color:#99ff99">Her feelings and emotions were a complicated mess, and though she had spent the last six years in space with some of the others working on being a better person, on being a good friend. There was still enough of the old her that she didn't trust herself to not lose her temper and lash out at Bellamy if she thought that he wasn't being honest with her. She was also worried about what this now meant for the two of them. He had a child with another woman, and they had spent the last six years, together and in love, and now they returned to Earth and to this. <br/>
<br/>
Echo hated feeling insecure about her </span></span><span class="fixed-color" style="color:#99ff99"><span style="font-size: 15px">relationship</span></span><span style="font-size: 15px"><span class="fixed-color" style="color:#99ff99"> with Bellamy. </span></span><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(153, 255, 153)"><span style="font-size: 15px">But she had been aware from the beginning, that things with Bellamy and Clarke weren't always what they seemed. And the fact that they had slept together and had a son, proved it.<br/>

<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#99ff99"><span style="font-size: 15px">Raven looked over at Bradley, as they laid down in bed together. She shifted on the bed and carefully adjusted her damaged leg. "Tomorrow's going to be crazy. Are you going to go out with Clarke, Bellamy and the others to try and work on getting the other bunker open? I might end up staying here with the kids and keeping them safe. We all know that I'm a crack shot. That Harper is, too. Look, we're going to need as many people as possible, to work on getting the bunker open and our people out of there. We should only spare two of us to look after the kids this time."<br/>
<br/>
"And everyone else should be focused on getting the others out of the bunker. The sooner we can get our people out of there, the better off we'll be. Especially if this Diyoza woman that Clarke mentioned to all of us earlier, tries to get to the rest of her people that are on board the ship. Emori and I can both manage it, but we'll need to be separated <br/>
so that way if something happens, one of us is still alive to keep them from accessing the codes and getting the rest of their people. Bradley, I can't be out there with you guys."<br/>
<br/>
"I can't run with my stupid leg. And the best thing that I can do, is make a stand wherever I end up, and pick off some of this woman's people if they try to attack us."</span></span></span>
