<span style="font-family:Emilys Candy"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span class="fixed-color" style="color:#4dffa6">Clarke looked at Bellamy.  "I meant that I wasn't going to apologize for not telling you about Jake when we were with McCreary and around Diyoza's camp. There's no way in hell I was going to talk about our son and put him on their radar. So, that's why I waited. That, and I needed a minute to wrap my head around all of you returning. As for telling Jake that you're his father, he already knows. He knows, well.. a little about everyone. You, Octavia, Raven, Monty, Harper and Bradley, my mother and Kane, Jaha, everyone."<br/>
<br/>
"And, I've drawn pictures of you over the years so he'd know what you looked like.. That's how Madi knew that she could trust you guys. I didn't hide anything. I don't want to lie. I just think that Jake doesn't understand that you're his father. He's used to seeing you in the pictures I've drawn, or heard me talk about you. But until now, he's never seen you in person." </span></span><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(77, 255, 166)"><span style="font-size: 15px">She ran an exhausted hand through her hair and sighed. "I didn't do much, but I'm glad that I was able to do something. And now that you're all here, we need to come up with a plan to get the others out of the bunker."<br/>
<br/>
"That's not going to happen today, and we're not going to fight with Diyoza and her people any more today, either. I think that we should all take this chance to eat and rest, and figure out what we're going to do next. I have a bunch of free rooms and I'll show you where you and Echo will be staying, Bradley and Harper, Monty, and Emori will all have your own rooms. Jake and I share a room, and Madi has her own room right next to mine. This place is pretty big, but it's built to look rundown and useless, which has helped to keep us alive all this time."<br/>
<br/>
"No one's interested in some rundown place that seems deserted." A few moments later, she got out extra pillows and blankets and distributed them to all rooms. Then Clarke excused herself from Bellamy and went to Madi's room. She knocked on the door and then opened after getting permission to enter. A smile was on her lips as she saw that Jake had fallen asleep while he and Madi had been playing board games and reading. "Thanks for looking after Jake while Bellamy and I talked, Madi. I'll take him and put him down for his nap."<br/>
<br/>
"You can go back to reading or whatever you were doing." She gave the young girl a smile, and then scooped her son into her arms and carried him out of the girl's room and into her room next door. She carefully set Jake down in his bed, covered him, and made sure the door to the bedroom was left open, before she went back out to talk the others. The next half an hour was spent getting everyone settled into their rooms, and once that happened, she went into the kitchen and started to make dinner for all of them.<br/>

Harper smiled as she listened to Bradley speak. "Right now, what I need is for you to hold me. That's all I need. The feeling of your arms wrapped around me, while we take the time to be grateful that we're even still alive and with our friends once more." After she spoke, the blonde kissed her boyfriend, and happily wrapped her arms around his waist in a tight hug. "After everything that we've witnessed and been through over the last several years, I'm just taking this moment to be glad that we're both still alive, and that we're still together."</span></span></span>
