|BELLAMYS POINT OF VIEW |

Oriana and Octavia sat laughing and talking off to the side of camp. I felt anger bubble up inside of me. Octavia had been spending so much time with Oriana I never got to talk to her anymore. With Oriana around, Octavia didn't want me around anymore. No, I wouldn't allow that to happen Octavia was my sister and Oriana was taking up my time, and my place in my sisters life.

I walked up to the two, the squinted trying to see past the sunlight, once I stood in front of the sun they both smiled. "Hey Bell." Octavia said with a smile, "Oriana I need to talk to you." I said, Oriana gave me a confused stare but nodded and stood up. We walked for a few minutes until I was sure we were far enough from Octavia before saying, "I don't want you hanging around my sister anymore." I said, Oriana looked at me her brown eyes went wide.

"Why?" She asked, I was shocked to hear such a hurt tone in her voice. Oriana was always so reckless and stubborn, never had I heard such a tone from her before. "Because she's my sister, I can protect her myself." I told her, Oriana rolled her eyes.

"Don't you see Bellamy?" She snapped, I stared down at her, she was short compared to me. "I'm not around to protect your sister and she can handle herself just fine. I'm around to be her friend, something she hasn't had in sixteen years." Her hands went to her hips, I admired her admission. "I have a sister too Bellamy Blake," she said gesturing off to the young fifteen year old girl giggling at something Monty said before he lent down and kissed her. "And I know how shitty it is to watch her grow up. Octavia has found someone who made her happy just like Astrid did. You can't take that away from her, and I won't stop hanging out with her. But, your sister misses you." Oriana said, I never cut her off letting her speak. I saw the way her eyes lit up when she saw how happy her sister was with Monty.

"They grow up wether you want them too or not." The nineteen year old said to me. I sighed, she truly was beautiful, and I didn't just think that she was beautiful the words she spoke were as well, the wisdom and the truth that lingered between her words made me sigh. "How do you know all of this?" I asked her, she gave me a small smile. "I listen to them Bellamy, and you best do too, you'll learn a lot." I nodded.

"Forget what I said," I started. "My sister needs you." I told her, Oriana gave me a smile a real genuine smile. "She needs you too Blake." She replied. "I know." I mumbled, suddenly I felt arms wrap around me, I looked down to Oriana and hugged her back.

"I can help you understand if you want." I heard her say quietly. "I'd like that." I admited. She unwrapped herself from me, gave me one last smile and walked away, taking my heart with her as she went.
