A frigid wind shears through the night, reducing the weak fire to a pitiful cluster of fading embers. Bellamy sits stiffly beside you, his shivering concealed beneath crossed arms and a wall of tense silence. The air between you is dense with everything left unspoken since Arkadia. When a violent shudder racks your body, he shifts, his jaw tightening as he stares stubbornly at the dark trees. “Come here,” he mutters, his voice gravelly with reluctant concern. You hesitate, then inch closer. He pulls you into the circle of his warmth, his body heat a sudden, stark reprieve from the freezing air, his arm locking around your shoulders in a gesture of grudging, protective solidarity.
