It was nearing time to go talk to Jaha and everybody was a little nervous. Even Samantha was, but for other reasons then herself being pardoned. She worried about her mom mostly, among other things. After training, Bellamy went to check on the rest of his people. Samantha laid on the ground for a little longer until she found the strength to go check on the connection in the drop ship. Her mind wandered as she stepped onto the Drop Ship ledge. "Hey!" Octavia called, catching onto Samantha's arm before she could enter the Drop Ship.

Samantha stopped, looking to see who was holding her. When she saw who it was, a smile creeped up on her face. "Long time no see, stranger. What's up?" Samantha asked, crossing her arms over her chest casually. Octavia looked down, trying to figure out the correct words to say. Samantha noticed her struggling and let out a long sigh. "How'd you find out?" She breathed, shaking her head slightly.

Octavia looked up quickly with a soft smile. "Definitely not by Jasper." She laughed, glad Samantha wasn't upset. Sometimes it was like her brother and she couldn't tell what would make her angry. Although she did have one thing on her side and that was Samantha actually liked her. Making it hard for her to be upset.

"Remind me to beat his ass later." Samantha joked, as she felt Octavia pull her into a hug. As Samantha tried to pull away she felt herself only hugged tighter. Holding her arms out to the side, her eyes went wide with confusion. "Um.. You know it's only video, right? I'm going to come out in five minutes."

Octavia let out a dry laugh and let go of her friend. Taking a step back, she shoved her hair behind her ear with a nervous expression. "I'm worried for you guys. This really needs to go well. If it doesn't-"

Samantha held her hand in the air, "Neh!" She said, shaking her finger. "Don't jinx it."

Octavia laughed, slapping Samantha's arm to the side lightly. Her facial expressions changed five times in a matter of two seconds and Samantha knew something was on Octavia's mind. Luckily she didn't have to pry it out of her because Octavia spoke first. "Hey, can I tell you something?" Samantha nodded, seeing Octavia's serious expression now. "That Grounder.."

Samantha laughed lightly, shaking her head. It was an automatic reaction, one she didn't mean to do. "That Grounder.. right.."

Octavia's whole body grew stiff at her words. "What does that mean?" Octavia asked, growing defensive with her arms crossed over her chest.

"We both know that he's not just 'That Grounder' to you." Samantha said, causing Octavia's jaw to drop to the floor. "Oh, don't act so surprised! You're my friend, it's my job to know things about you." When no words came to Octavia's lips, Samantha spoke up again with a slight smile. "Annnddd..Raven told me how she suspects you let him free in the first place. So I kind of put two and two together in my spare time."

Octavia couldn't help but gain a small smirk on her face. Even though Samantha was very busy, she still managed to keep an eye on her friend. The feeling of that sent shivers down Octavia's spine. It was refreshing and nice. Someone cared about her who isn't family. "So you're not mad?"

"No." Samantha replied quickly, "I don't think.. I mean.. He healed you in that cave. He didn't have to do that. He also gave us the antidote to save Finn and I's life. Well, I guess he did poison us in the first place.." She trailed off, feeling like her points weren't matching up anymore. "But.. if you think he's good then I trust your instinct." This was the second time she used the word trust in two days, it was very uncharacteristic of her.
