EVERYTHING WAS A MESS and none of them knew how to fix it. Jinny ran a hand through her messy dark hair as she paced the inside of the tent. It trembled with residual pain and she balled it into a fist instead, throwing dark glances around at the others. Charlotte sat in the corner with her eyes glued to her muddy shoes.
"Bring out the girl, Bellamy!" Murphy yelled from outside.
Jinny ducked under the flap and screamed at him. "Shut the hell up, or I'll shut you up!"
"Why, Charlotte?" Bellamy asked, his eyes troubled and weary.
"I was just trying to slay my demons, like you told me," she said, her small voice sending shivers down Jinny's spine. It was like she had absolutely no idea how terrible her actions had been. Was she that desperate to end the nightmares?
"What the hell is she talking about?" Clarke demanded fiercely, looking between the both of them.
"She misunderstood me." Bellamy quickly defended himself. "Charlotte, that is not what I meant."
"You can't hide her forever, Jinny!" Murphy continued to shout vehemently. She inhaled sharply but stopped herself from running out of the tent to pummel his stupid face back into the ground.
"Please don't let them hurt me," Charlotte whimpered, hugging her knees to her chest.
"Damn it." Jinny buried her face in her hands, then grasped at the roots of her hair. "She's just a little girl, Bell. What the hell are we supposed to do? I can't think of a single option where this will turn out okay."
