He kiss the edge of her lips, and she parted them, ready for him to five in on her and kiss her . . . but then he pulled away. "Why don't we take this somewhere private," and stepped away to give her a chance to either go with him or stay here. She looked at him and tired to think without it taking too long. On one hand, she had never had casual anything, and she wasn't sure what it would be like. She knew nothing about him! He could hurt her! . . . . on the other . . . It was like standing on the edge of something, and she was brave on the outside and shaking on the inside with a mix of mostly excitement but a hint of fear--and she was loving this feeling.

He wasn't a criminal! The only one of them here that could say that! Surely that was a good sign? Taking a deep breath, she let out a slow smile that crept over her face before she stepped closer to him, and let her on hand hook into his own. "We do need to get out of these wet clothes." She pointed out, "We would hate to get sick on out first night." Mostly though she just wanted to see him naked. Because is she was going to do this, she wanted to see everything.

"Well, there are better places to do that," Yes! Her eyes fell over him, slowly taking in the form of the man before her, before they slowly made their way back up to his face. There was so much she'd like to do to him. "Yeah? And what bad ass thing did you do to get yourself down here?" He asked, and she lost some of her swave as she was a bit annoyed with herself for that. "Went to a party to let off some steam, got high for the first time . . . the guards crashed it. I would have been floated but YAY for me . . . I was still 6 days from 18. I figured they'd pardon it, but instead--" She held out her hands to gesture wot the world around her. "Earth Bound."

Dropping her hands to her side she kept going. "Not very bad ass! Instead my 18 birthday is spent crashing into Earth! Happy birthday to me!" She was a bit bitter, but more still on that high of being here! She was on EARTH! She was practically an adult! She was without any rules, or adults, or judgment, or need to pick a career, or a need to be as good in school as her mother, or needs to hold up the family name, or . . . . or whatever it was she had rebelled against.

Reaching forward she used her thumb and forefinger to pinch his shirt and pull it slightly away from him before letting it fall back. "Guess we're the only two big kids here." She teased, stepping even closer and smiling up at him. "We should celebrate."

"You'd be good," He told her, and Lilly felt her chin come up slightly from the pride his words made her feel. Bellamy was their leader, he'd kept them alive this far; and his words of thinking she'd been good at the guns made her feel like it was true. "If you're willing to put in the time and effort, this is something I can see you doing well in." Her lips tilted up in a smile as she got out a witty reply, "I have nothing but time here." But she knew effort wasn't so easily given. Still she'd give what she had to give to be good at protecting the others and herself. She could do it.

"We can finally protect ourselves now." Yes! Her smile faltered for a moment as she thought of Wells and Roma and everyone who had fallen to this place. Either to each other, or the Earth, or the grounders. "You can find out just how exhilarating it is to shoot one," His words made her force her smile back, and she teased him again, trying to make sure they didn't think about the reason why they needed to know how to shoot guns. "I could do do with a bit of exhilaration right about now." She watched him for a moment before contuining to divert the subject, "You look really hot with the rifle." And he did. Her words were not just a lie to keep her from thinking about the ones lost. She had thought he looked really bad ass.

Lilly tried to casual look around to make sure no one could hear them; though in hindsight it lacked subtly. Then she told him something about her that she hadn't really told the others. "I almost joined the guard. Before I was arrested. I took a few of their into classes. The ones for the kids under 18 to help them see what they were getting into." She knew he was a cadet once, or a guardsmen. Lilly didn't remember which but at this point it made him more qualified then everyone else to train and lead them. "I remember the class on safety with the weapons. I can help you tomorrow, if you want." She was ready to stop being afraid and step up. She wanted to fight, and not hid behind the walls any longer.

Lilly stood on the edge of the camp wall and watched as they finished burying Roma. She had not been close to her, but she had known her well enough. They had been friends, sort of. Lilly wished she had gone with them to find Bellamy's sister but she had been afraid. She still was. The grounders were dangerous, and killing them one by one. They had one held prisoner! This wasn't the Earth they had trained for as children. This was hell, and they were loosing!

Bellamy Blake walked back from the grave and toward camp, and she stood up straighter. Waiting until he came to rest before her, Lilly tried to think of something to say. It wasn't easy to bury a friend, and she knew that the past few night he and Roma had spent them together. She wasn't sure what was between them, but she knew it wasn't easy. "Hey," She said softly, still not sure how to help either of them, or anyone. "She died quick?" That question spilled out, before she could stop it. She had not been besties with Roma, but she sat beside her on the way down, and they had been friends. In the Sky Box their cells had been beside each other.

Oh hell. This was bad. Lilly stood by the drinking water and stared into her reflection for a moment before dipping her cup and and lifting it up to her lips. The water tasted too strong, and metallic. The magic of Earth had worn off with the danger, and while she still rather be here then in the Sky Box she was missing her mother. It didn't help that getting high had reminded her of why she was arrested and here in the first place. "You coming to training tomorrow?" She looked up with a bit of a jerk, not having her anyone approach. The sudden movement hurt. She was mostly recovered, but the water would help flush her out.

Bellamy! She smiled at the sight of him. Damn that boy only got hotter. "Am I invited?" She teased, knowing she was. She wasn't one of the jumpy kids--the only reason she had jumped now was because she was coming down from the high and not at her fullest. "I plan, too." She told him, turning to face him. "Though I've never shot one before." She paused and her face scrunched up slightly from thinking. "Though most of us haven't." Lilly was more like her mother then she knew. She was smart. She wasn't bad at physically handling herself, but she was smarter then she was strong. "I think I remeber reading about them once though." Looking back at him, she noticed he looked pleased. He had when he'd brought the guns back too. "You really like that gun, don't you." She teased him, knowing would be deeper then that. Guns ment less people had to die. It meant they could hold their own.
