Charlotte didn’t want to say it, she didn’t want those words to come out of her mouth. She was a murderer. Sadly, she just gave in and nodded. If he was willing to risk protecting her then it was something she would truly be grateful for. They all came down here as criminals, but Charlotte had managed to stay one while everyone else was pardoned for their crimes.
She scooped up her belongings, still refusing to look at anyone. She didn’t want to provoke them any more than she already had. Charlotte nodded and sighed. “I’m sorry for you having to deal with me.” She said quietly. To be honest, she didn’t even know how to deal with herself anymore. How could she ever redeem what she had done? She was going to have to live with the blood on her hands for the rest of her life, however short it might be.

When Charlotte jumped from the cliff, she had fully intended to die. She never imagined that she would wake up, especially not with a Grounder by the side of her. She wasn’t sure how to feel, there had been conflicting beliefs about the Grounders and Sky People. Her eyes focussed on the girl who sat beside her, she didn’t say anything.
If the other Delinquents found her, they would probably kill her, maybe this was the safer option- then again, Grounders weren’t exactly known for their kindness towards the Sky People. Charlotte sat up and cautiously took the water in the bowl, wondering momentarily if it could’ve been poisoned or not. She came to the well thought out conclusion that it wasn’t and took a sip. She was afraid, and for the first time, she was all alone in the world.
“Please don’t hurt me.” Charlotte said with a trembling voice. She didn’t want to survive a fall off a cliff just to be tortured and killed. Wincing in pain, she positioned herself carefully, clearly afraid.

Charlotte was only a lost child, having lost her parents at a young age then being forced to deal with the grief. She never had anything against Wells, she never really spoke to him, and in those last few moments they shared, he was kind. It hurt her. Bellamy, literally and metaphorically, was the only thing that kept her alive. She would’ve been killed by Murphy if it wasn’t for him, or run away…
No one else was going to be hurt because of her, she promised that much. Which was why she wasn’t refusing to be kept in the drop ship; though she had returned to the innocent child she was before the killing. She nodded slowly and looked up at Bellamy with wide eyes. He was brave to stand up to everyone, to Murphy, for her. “I’m not worth it, you have to look after your people first.” She said sadly. Exiting though the flap cautiously, she attempted not to make eye contact with anyone that might be around and just headed straight for her stuff.

If it was someone else talking to Charlotte now she would’ve run. But because it was Bellamy, she trusted him and she knew he was wiser than she was so it would be stupid not to do as he says. At least maybe this way she’d be safe from the grounders; but she wouldn’t be safe from her own mind. Of course there had to be a punishment, but it wasn’t like she was a threat to the other delinquents—more like they were a threat to her. She never had any ill intent in her heart when she killed Wells, it was just a last resort, she panicked. She never had been a threat to anyone else and never would be again, she was sure of it. No one else could be hurt because of her.
Charlotte nodded understandingly. It wasn’t exactly appealing to be locked away for months, even years. But she didn’t need anyone else other than Bellamy anyway so it was the brighter side of the negative situation. Except now she would be left alone with her own mind, the thing that had caused all the trouble in the first place; it was a nerving thought. She kept her eyes level with Bellamy’s. “Screw you, I’m not afraid.” She said with a small smile to reassure Bellamy. The fear had begun to reside by now, it was replaced by a calm sadness- remorse. “Thank you, Bellamy.” She said sincerely, wrapping her arms around Bellamy’s neck and hugging him again. She owed her life to him. "Do the others know?" she asked quietly.

After avoiding his gaze for a moment, she caught his eye and looked up, fear evident on her face, as always. She wasn’t entirely sure how to process the information, but she stayed calm. She nodded slowly, following the conversation. The others had every right for wanting justice, and Charlotte was so afraid of them that she just wanted to give in. She had attempted to give in to Murphy but failed on account of Bellamy.
“You’re keeping me prisoner?” she asked, out of shock rather than complaint. But of course they had every right to, even if she didn’t understand. It would keep her safe from the others after all and maybe it would satisfy them that she was taken away from them; maybe she’d even be able to join them again in time, which brought another question. “How long for? Will I be executed when they come down from the Ark?” she paused and rephrased the question. “if they come down from the Ark?”
Charlotte sniffled and glanced around before looking back up at him. “I’m scared Bellamy.” she hesitated before continuing. “I- I didn’t mean for this- you told me to slay my demons.” she said, wrapping her arms around herself, shaking.

Charlotte couldn’t quite grasp why the other Arkers were so unforgiving, it wasn’t like they were new to crime themselves. They could’ve at least been a little more understanding to both Murphy and Charlotte. Obviously murder was a big issue, but they had attempted to kill Murphy.
“But they would have.” she said quietly. “and I spoke up because I didn’t want to see another person hurt because-“ she cut off, embracing Bellamy and clinging to him tightly. Charlotte still felt some remorse for Murphy, despite him wanting to kill her, she knew that it was her own mistake that led to Murphy being accused as the killer.
Looking up at Bellamy, she wiped the dampness from her eyes with her sleeve and although she didn’t smile, she gave him a grateful look before returning to hug him, clinging onto the back of his shirt. He had been the kindest person to her since she got her; he made her feel accepted. Since she was the youngest, many of the others shunned her and no one came to her in the night when she tossed and turned with the endless nightmares except Bellamy and occasionally Clarke. Only now had they began paying attention to her because she had killed someone and caused widespread commotion. “What will happen to me now?” she asked in a distant voice, her whole body trembled with fear.

Of course Charlotte didn’t want to kill Wells, she had only gone and taken Bellamy’s advice a little too literally. As always, she never thought of the consequences her actions might have. She had never imagined that the other Arkers would attempt to hang Murphy for a crime she committed. She felt guilty, scared and most of all, remorseful. Charlotte knew she should feel relieved that she wasn’t going to be killed, but she couldn’t be. The others would surely hate her now and she couldn’t just move on; all her life she had dwelled on the past.
Bellamy was one of the only people she trusted enough to share her feelings with. She was always very scared, though she didn’t need to tell him that for him to know- it was always so obvious. But the reasons for her fear was one of the first things she spoke to him about, after all, he was the one who suggested she slay her demon. Maybe now she could live in peace, without the constant fear in her sleep. But with all she had done recently, that didn’t seem likely. Being a criminal wasn’t exactly new to her, but murder… that was a whole other level of criminality.
It was obvious that Bellamy cared for her too, since he stood up to Murphy when he wanted to kill Charlotte even though he knew full well that Charlotte was guilty. When they were alone, Charlotte looked up at him, tears welled in her eyes though she persisted in holding them back. “They will. T-they hate me. They tried to kill Murphy.” She said, breathing heavily. “I’m sorry.” She gasped, looking down. Charlotte never intended any murder, she hoped in ridding the nightmares from her mind but now it seemed like she’d turned her life into a living nightmare.
