"hey" Bellamy sighed. Leoni looked up to see him standing tiredly at the door from where she continued sitting at the edge of her bed. he slid off his shoes and ventured further into the room. Leoni just watched him, planning her next move. Maybe dreading it more than planning but it was calculated nonetheless
"i am absolutely starving you wanna go grab dinner?" he asked taking off his jacket and pulling on a clean top
"i was thinking we could take it out to the lake, i need some peace and quiet" he laughed lightly then met Leoni's death evoking gaze
"not hungry?"

"when were you gonna tell me?" she asked calmly but Bellamy knew her well enough now to know that calm wasn't a good thing when it came to the warrior 

"tell you what?" he asked gravely

"that the Ark can only protect 100 people-"

"i had just found out myself Lee plus-"

"and you have no intention of giving any of those spaces to my people." Leoni finished poisonously. Bellamy went silent. he didn't know how to respond.

"Clarke had just told me and she thought it would be easier on us all to keep it on the down low!" He protested

"Clarke!" Leoni repeated in sarcastic surprise
"I forgot she ruled the world! God you'd really think that after this long I'd remember the death grip she had on you all" Leoni spat poisonously

"Leoni I don't really understand what's going on here..." he tilted his head trying to work her out

"i don't even blame you" Leoni laughed at the irony of it all as she picked up a glass from her bedside table and twirled it over in her hands
"Lexa would have done the same thing if it came to my people or yours. I would've protested but eventually given in. we're all just trying to survive right? but the difference is i would have told you. Even against my own sister's wishes i wouldn't have kept it a secret. i wouldn't have led you to believe that you had a HOPE IN HELL OF SURVIVING" Leoni was standing now with the glass gripped tightly in her hand, her voice rising with every word. facing Bellamy front on, unafraid as she yelled at him

"we're trying to find a way to save us all Leoni i swear" he said carefully not daring to meet her eyes

"Really Bellamy? Are you really? you have to tell me these things" Leoni's voice shook slightly and Bellamy noticed. She wasn't angry she was scared. So so scared. he reached out to grab her arms gently and she hardly noticed

"i'm sorry" he said so genuinely Leoni forgave him on the spot

"you have to tell me when my people are going to die" she said trying to suppress a whimper

"i'm sorry" Bellamy said again stepping closer

"that's how it works remember? you- you have to tell me when- when i can't save them when i'm failing when i'm going to live while they die you have to tell me when-when you're going to lock yourself away in some- some metal space thing and that- that im going to- to loose you-" Leoni's breathing quickened and she felt her better conscious slipping away from her
