BELLAMY BLAKE | Six years
"Crawlin' back to you (was sort of hopin' that you'd stay)"
Six years after the world ended—after he was forced to leave you behind—Bellamy returns to Earth, only to find that you survived.
Captured by Diyoza and the Eligius prisoners, you had spent years alone, fighting, surviving, enduring. Bellamy and Spacekru, in search of fuel, discover your captivity and negotiate a deal to free you.
When they finally reunite, the weight of six years crashes down on them. Bellamy, who never stopped believing you were alive, struggles to find the right words, torn between guilt and relief. He confesses that he wanted to call, that he thought about it every time—but he couldn't bear the possibility of silence.
The space between you is heavy with everything left unsaid, but when you reach for him—your fingers brushing against his—he knows that despite the time, the pain, the distance... some things never change.
