Octavia ran after bellamy and stopped him in his tent. "What the hell is wrong with you bellamy?" Octavia asked glaring at her brother. He turned and wiped away a tear. "I think i love her ocicat." Bellamy whispered. Octavias face struck realization as she played the scene over again in her head. They were both soaking wet they were both at the waterfall... "they kissed. They kissed didn't they?" octavia said looking up at her brother. "If you love her then you can't gain her love back like that, instead you need to prove your love to her. I don't think this murphy thing will last, he's a dick just let it play out but keep a close eye on her, knowing murphy he could hurt her." bellamy's face went stone cold and he nodded "I wont let anything happen to aria." He said coldly then hugged onto octavia before wiping his eyes once more and exiting the tent.

Aria walked out of the drop ship with Murphy's hand laced with hers. Their hair was dry now and the sun was high up gleaming over the camp, people were working on the wall and bellamy looked to be back to his old self ordering around people keeping his role as leader. Bellamy caught his eyes on aria as aria looked back at him, she frowned slightly but looked away. Bellamy huffed. "I need water a guy moaned out." Murphy stepped over to them aria walked beside murphy and grabbed a cup of water but came back to bellamy gone lugging away logs and murphy peeing on the guy. Aria growled and pushed murphy away he hit the ground with a rough ooph. He glared at aria and stood quickly and smacked her in the face. She held the mark on her face and her eyes widened. But so did murphys. "Wait aria wait i didn't mean..." You've done ENOUGH!" Octavia growled out and ran after Aria. Bellamy saw what happened and glared at murphy but he was glad it happened sooner rather than later. Aria sat at the base of the apple tree with her knees to her chest and her face pushed into them. Aria was hurt, she tried letting someone in and they did this why, why would they do this. Aria growled and slammed her fist onto the ground. She's done letting anyone in. Octavia walked up to aria and sat beside her against the base of the tree. She placed her hand on aria's shoulder and sighed. "I'm sorry ari, but murphy is a dick, i wish you didn't try to see the hidden good in everyone, you need to try and see the good that is already showing and if there's none then don't even bother." Aria put her head back and against the tree before looking at octavia. "I'm just not gonna let anyone in for now." "maybe thats a good idea, everyone keeps fucking dying anyway." Octavia said while she choked back a sob. Aria crawled into Octavia's lap and held onto her rocking her back and forth. "I'm sorry octavia. I know it sucks to lose someone... you will never lose me i promise, and i will keep your brother just as safe as i keep you." Aria said soothingly. "Thank you." Octavia cried out into Aria's shoulder. Tempest came and got on her knees beside Aria and Octavia "I'd like to be both of you're friends, we really need friends out here and i can closely relate to you both, if that's okay?" Aria and octavia grabbed tempest and pulled her into the hug. "Of course." They both said in unison. The three of them walked back and Murphy tried to walk to aria but she pushed past him. Aria walked to the guy that murphy peed on and everyone watched. Aria leaned down with her hand on his shoulder. "Hey look at me." She whispered soothingly. He looked up teary eyed. She took his shirt off "go wash this okay you don't have to work for the rest of the day." Aria said and handed him an apple from behind her back with a smile. He smiled brightly at aria and walked off. Aria stood and walked over to the other workers "If Murphy does something to you. You come to me you understand and i will handle it." Aria said loudly then glared at murphy. Cheers erupted from the group. "You have a lot of fucking nerve Aria Hemming." Murphy said stomping over to Aria. "What are you gonna do murphy huh pee on me?" aria said. At this point everyone gathered around them and bellamy watched closely waiting to step in when it's needed. Murphy grabbed a knife from his pocket and put his fists up. Aria cocked her head to the side. "Are you really gonna do this murphy." Aria took a slow step forward with her hands up. She took another step but dodged as murphy swiped at her. Murphy jumped on aria and held her down with the knife on the ground beside her head. Tears spilled onto her face from murphy's eyes. "I love you..." He whispered. Aria rolled murphy onto his back as she was on top now she held his wrists above his head as she frowned at him "I don't want to be with someone like that, someone who treats people the way you." Aria whispered. "I don't know how to let people in." Murphy whispered sadly. "Then try first." Aria said before pulling murphy up and kicking the knife to bellamy. Aria hugged murphy and whispered "Please try." Murphy looked at aria and nodded.
