Description
"I don't know why I do this to myself." Silence. A light, disdainful chuckle. "It's not like you're out there somewhere listening." Bellamy lets out a shaky sigh and clenches the fist that rests on the table by the transmitter to steady his breathing. *** Begins at the end of Season 4. Once on the Ring, Bellamy and his friends discover that Clarke survived the end of the world. They are able to hear her daily radio transmissions but are unable to respond. This is the story of Bellamy discovering his feelings without being able to express them to the one person who needs to know. *** "Clarke." It comes out as a broken whisper. "Clarke," he says, more forcefully. As if she could hear him. "Clarke." The scraping of his words inside his throat feels like sandpaper. He grabs the receiver and starts to shake it. "Keep talking, Clarke," he whispers desperately. In a trembling voice, he adds, "I'm listening."
