Bellamy looks at her for a moment. His heart swells with affection for her — his best friend, who is pretty hot, if he’s being honest with himself. They can make this good for each other, figure this out together like they learned how to surf and skateboard together. Like they tried alcohol for the first time together. They’ve gone through a lot of firsts side by side, and it’s always made it better.
“Yeah,” he says, unable to stop the grin that sneaks onto his lips. “I’m in.”

Some friends make a pact that they’ll marry each other if they’re both still single at 30. As best friends and neighbors, Bellamy and Clarke make a different kind of pact. If both of them haven't lost their virginities by the time they graduate high school, they'll lose them to each other.
The week before graduation, they're surprised to find out that the pact still stands.
