Octavia's pov

I saw the look, Bellamy was giving Nina and immediately got a smile on my face.

"This is going to be fun." I thought

I tapped Bellamy's hand making him nod his head at me while he kept his gaze on Nina.

"I'm going to head back, keep an eye on her." I said quietly

He nodded making me turn around and walk back into camp, I looked at the sky and decided to go to mine and Lincoln's meeting spot since it was almost time for us to meet.

"Can't wait to see his reaction to this." I thought

Nina's pov

I was knelt down feeling the dirt and grass while watching little animals run through the forest. I've never experienced anything like this before, I'm glad they brought me out here. I felt something on my shoulder making me look up to see, Bellamy.

"Let me show you something." He said

He helped me up before we started walking wherever he wanted to go, I noticed that he never let go of my hand making me blush. 

"What is this feeling? " I wondered 

We were walking until the sun was setting making me look at Bellamy with fear and confusion.

"Where are we going?" I asked

He looked at me with a kind smile and soft eyes making my fear simmer down a little bit.

"Don't worry, Sweetheart." He said, making me blush "We're almost there."

I gave him a nervous smile back making him look back in front of him, we continued to walk until he took me to the glowing part of the woods. I looked at it in awe making me start to walk faster, I started dragging Bellamy behind me making him chuckle in amusement. Right, when we walked through the first couple of trees that's when I saw it glowing insects and flowers. I looked around in awe and delight, one of the beautiful insects landed on my shoulder making me look at it in wonder.

"Bell, what kind of insect is this?" I wondered

"This is called a butterfly." He said

I hummed in wonder

"Butterfly." I said, testing it out before looking at Bellamy with a huge smile "I like it, they're pretty."

It flew away from me before it landed on one of the pretty plants, I bent down and looked at Bellamy again.

"What about this?" I asked

He bent down next to me before he placed a hand on my shoulder making a small blush appear on my cheeks.

"These are called flowers." He explained 

I hummed again before looking at him in delight, I put my hand on his knee making a weird feeling go in my stomach.

"Thank you, for showing me this place Bell." I said, "It really means a lot."

"No, need to thank me sweetheart." He said, before he kissed my forehead

My eyes widened before I felt my face heat up, my eyes slowly closed before I felt Bellamy's lips leave my forehead and than I felt him pull me into his chest. I felt his arms around my waist making me wrap my arms around his, I haven't felt an embrace like this since Lincoln and I were in the cave. I didn't realize how much I missed being in someone's embrace, although this embrace feels familiar. . . . I feel protected and safe. I haven't felt this since Lincoln would hold me whenever I had nightmares or when our people would visit the cave for medicine. I smiled into Bellamy's chest tightening my hold on him making him tighten his hold on me as well, we finally released each other when we felt the  butterflies land on us. We separated from one another before looking all around us as the butterflies fly away because, we moved making them frighten. We looked at one another before we chuckled nervously, Bellamy stood up making me look at him.

"We should probably head back." He suggested

"Yeah." I said with a nod of my head

He helped me stand up before we started our trek back to Bellamy's home, it was a peaceful silence making me smile. We finally arrived it was night time and everyone was cheering making, Bellamy and I look at each other confused. We walked inside only to see that everyone was running around and it looks like people were doing something on the ground? I looked at Bellamy confused while he looks irritated.

"Bell, what are they doing?" I asked

His eyes immediately went wide before he immediately covered my eye making me grab his hand in confusion.

"Bellamy?" I asked

"Just- don't ask questions and I'm going to just guide you, okay?" He said, before I answered he started making us walk before muttering, "okay."

I was highly confused but I just did what he said because, he was to strong for me to remove his hand or to make him stop walking. I finally felt him remove his hand when we arrived in. .  . . . The tent.

"Stay in here until, I fix what's going on outside." He ordered, making me nod my head

I walked over to he bed while he walked outside, I sighed as I looked at the familiar walls of the tent. Oh well, at least I got to go outside today and see nature for the very first time since I've been born. I grabbed my drawing journal before I started drawing what I saw today. I drew Bellamy, Octavia, the glowing trees, the flowers, and especially the butterflies. I drew almost all night before I finally put the finishing touch on the last drawing, I smiled down at my work before I put my drawing journal back into my bag that Octavia brought with all my journals the day she say my brother. I yawned before I laid down snuggling into the blankets on the bed, I was almost asleep until I felt someone crawl into bed with me and wrap they're arms around me making me turn my head to see that it was Bellamy and he looked exhausted. I turned back around before, I slowly fell asleep thinking about a certain sky boy named Bellamy Blake.
