That was weird. A queasy feeling fills up my insides as I watch Clarke walk away. My eyebrows furrow in confusion as my mind races, but my thoughts are cut short by Raven coming up to me.

"Hey." She says, looking everywhere but my eyes. I look over at her and note her disheveled appearance. I lift an eyebrow at her, but she doesn't seem to notice.

"What's up?" I sigh, feeling the tension in the air. We haven't talked since she electrocuted me. God, that sounds worse in my head.

She sighs and gestures with her hand before looking at me. "I'm trying to hook up some monitors for the unity day speech, but I can't figure out this one thing and I know you're good with it because of your mum and--" She rambles.

"Raven." I say, stopping her from rambling more. Her eyes flick to mine and instead of the murderous and ruthless eyes that electrocuted me, I see nervous ones. "It's okay." I say softly and she sighs in relief.

"I'm so sorry, Hailey." Her shoulders droop. "I had no other choice because he knew what would help Finn." She sighs. I tilt my head, watching her.

A small smile tugs at my lips and she notices. "What?" Her eyebrows furrow as she watches me.

I shake my head as a I chuckle. "Nothing, it's just that..." I trail off, smiling. "It's just that you and Finn are meant for each other." I smile at her.

Her confused expression melts as a small smile takes over. "Yeah..." She trails off. "I know we are." She says, teetering on her toes awkwardly. Then, she collides into me in a hug. "Do you forgive me? Because I don't think I could live without you." She cries into my shoulder. "God, just think about how needy Elliot would be." I hear her scoff as I wrap my arms around her middle.

I chuckle, "Yeah, he'd be wanting attention from you the whole time since he couldn't get it from me."

She breaks apart from me and her eyes are hopeful. "So, you forgive me?"

I smile, "Of course, Rey."

She smirks at the nickname. "Remember when you got Sinclair to think that was my actual name?" She chuckles, beginning to walk towards the monitors with me following her. "It took him a month for him to realise that, that was your nickname for me." She laughs.

I shake my head, remembering his shocked and confused expression when he found out. My attention is diverted by the wires in front of me.

"Let's do this." I mutter before grabbing a wire.
