Mine

Dear diary,

It's still my birthday, I know normally I won't write in my diary twice a day, but I don't think I'll be able to fit all of this on one page! I'm soaked, from the rain of coarse. Uriah and I where walking, to check if we got any mail from Tobias or Zeke, and we totally kissed! I know I'm not that crazy girl that goes crazy over this kind of stuff, but I'm just so happy. I can't wipe this smile off my face! I'm about to go over to Christina's room to apologize from earlier, mostly because I just want to tell her about what happened! I'm excited to see Uriah later on today. Well I assume this is all for now,

~Tris Prior

I began to walk over to Christiana's dorm, which is only 4 doors down from mine. My hair was still wet from running in the rain, Uriah and I were out there for over 15 minutes, trying to find an entrance, most of the doors were locked, and no one would let us in because 'we weren't a familiar face.' But once we did get inside the building we left each other, and went to our dorms.

I knocked twice before she let me in, "Oh, hey Tris." Christiana said, with a mopey look on her face, "Come in." She opened the door farther, giving myself enough room to walk through. As I walked in, I noticed how dark her room was, all of the lights were off, and she didn't have any windows, it was almost pitch black if it wasn't for her laptop on the desk.

"So what's up?" I asked, sitting gently on the bed.

"I was about to ask you the same, I was just checking my email, getting news from my family." Christiana said, looking down at the ground.

"Is everything okay?" I asked, crossing my legs. Christiana's hair was a mess, earlier she had it in a perfect bun, but now it's a complete un-brushed mess. She was kicking her feet back and forth, and had her hands in her pockets, something she would do when she was nervous.

"Yes, everything's fine I assume. I'm just worried about my little sister." She said, looking over to the laptop, making sure it wasn't going anywhere.

"You have a sibling?" I asked.

"Yes, I have four. Anna, my eldest sister is 21, and currently serving in Candor, than my little sister, Elizabeth, who is now 16, and my younger brother, Matthew, who is only 7." She explained. I was a little confused, she never talked about her siblings, or her family that much. I guess it was because I never asked.

"Oh, well now why are you worried?"

"Elizabeth is going to have to choose a faction in 7 days." She said, looking down at the ground, "And I know she's not going to want to stay at Candor, but my parents are going to try to force her too, like what they've done to me. I just think she'd be stupid enough to fall for it, Anna fell for it, the threats, the love, the confusion. I just don't want Elizabeth to make the same mistake Anna did, I want her to do what she wants to do, not what my father wants. I was smart enough to leave that place when I had the chance." Christiana explained.

"I'm really sorry to hear that." I said, looking down at my feet.

"I'm sorry for being such a downer on your birthday, meet me down at the lobby in 1 hour and we'll talk, Marlene will be in your room in a little bit to talk, okay?" She said, looking over at her laptop to check the time.

"Um okay, why is she coming over exactly?" I asked, confused.

"Like I said, to talk." She smiled at the sentence, I know there is something more into this story. They're going to do something, "Oh! And bring your bathing suit! Bikini please!"

"Um okay, see you in an hour." I said, walking out of the room, "Christiana, what time is it now?"

"It's only eleven." She told me, glancing at her laptop again.

Time passed slowly until I heard a knock on the door, going back and forth from looking at my clock to my mirror. I jumped at the sound, a small hope it was Uriah, I was disappointed when I opened the door, "Hi Marlene." I said, letting her in the room.

"Hey Tris! Happy birthday!" She said, hugging me.

"So what do you want to talk about?" I asked, sitting on my desk, watching her examine my room.

"Talk? Oh yes… 'Talk.' I actually came here to look around your clothes." She smiled, opening up my dresser.

"Wait, why are you looking at my clothes?"

"No reason in particular, oh that's cute!" Marlene said, throwing my black lacy tank top on my bed.

"You're acting really weird Marlene…" I said, watching her walk around, playing with my clothes, and taking my hairbrush.

"Now where's your tooth brush?" She asked, stuffing everything in a bag.

"Um, 2nd drawer in the bathroom…" I answered.

"And now you're good!" She said grabbing the toothbrush, "Nice talk." She quickly ran out the door with the bag, leaving me confused and worried, what are they going to do?

Finally it was noon, and I started to make my way down into the lobby, I was shaking, what if they do something terrible? For a birthday joke? I don't know how they celebrate birthday's at Dauntless…

After nervously walking down various flights of stairs I finally entered the lobby, to find Will, Christiana, Al, Marlene, Lauren, And Uriah! "What's going on?" I asked, walking closer to them, staring at Uriah, hoping he would make eye contact.

"Surprise!" Christiana said, moving over to show the suit cases.

"My surprise is getting kicked out of my dorm?" I asked confused.

"No! We're going camping!" Will said, smiling.

"Camping? All of us?" I asked, looking around to make sure 'all of us' was Just Will, Christiana, Uriah, Marlene, and myself.

"Yes! You, Christiana, Uriah, Will, Al, Lauren, Me, and Peter!" Marlene said, jumping up and down.

"Peter? Oh fun. This is a joke right?" I asked.

"What, do you not like it?" Christiana said, looking down.

"No! It's just, I've never been camping… And I would just LOVE to share this experience with Peter, speak of the Devil, where is he?" I asked, looking around.

"He's in the car, he's only coming because he had a van that would fit all of us, we could only use it if he would come with us." Uriah explained, not completely looking at me.

"Okay, can he fit in the trunk?" I asked, gazing around the room for eye contact with someone.

"Actually, he's driving." Will explained.

"Are you guys crazy? Peter, my ENEMY is coming, Driving, us to a camp, he's evil! He'll probably get us stuck in the wilderness and say we're out of gas! When we're really not, and all of a sudden, I'm dead!"

"You've been watching way too many scary movies Tris." Christiana laughed.

"Ugh, well thanks for planning this guys…" I began to walk out into the parking lot, wondering what will happen, and why Uriah is trying to ignore me.

"Hello Tris." Peter said, already buckled in the front seat reading a book.

"Isn't it nice to see you… Peter." I frowned, putting my luggage in the trunk, "Can I ask you why you want to come on my birthday camping trip, considering, you know, we hate each other."

"It's you're birthday, and it's the last couple of weeks of summer, and I haven't been camping in… 7 years." Peter explained, with a smirk on his face.

Soon enough the others all came out, with their bags. I hoped into the Middle seat of the big van while Christiana, Will, and Al sat in the back seat, Uriah sat by Peter, in the front seat, and Marlene and Lauren squeezed in my row.

Peter set down his book when he realized we were ready to go, I noticed the book was 'The grapes of wrath.' Since when has Peter read? We all were silent for the first five minutes of the car ride, until Will finally broke the silence, "So guys… Would you like to play would you rather?"

I groaned, clearly not amused by his lack of imagination.

"Sure! I'll go first, Al Would you rather… Be the ruler of Abnegation, or Have 3 toes?" Marlene giggled, turning around to face Al.

This was going to be a long car ride.

Finally after 3 hours of driving, and hearing Marlene constantly give out the most awkward 'would you rathers' to eachother, we were close to the camping sight. It's called 'Crystal Valley' Christina said her family and herself camped out here every summer when she was little, and that almost no one was here. So it was nice and private, a nice getaway.

"So how long are we going to be out here?" I asked, as we drove threw a small opening through the pine trees.

"However long we want." Christina smiled.

"So we're just going to leave when we want? Won't everyone at Dauntless get worried? Or mad? Or something?" I began to thing they didn't think this out enough,

"Tris, calm down. Will checked with everyone there, we're fine." I honestly didn't care about the people at Dauntless, I cared about getting a letter from Tobias, and not getting it soon enough.

We were silent for the last few minutes of the car ride, everyone was looking out at the windows, at the beauty of the outdoors. After being locked up in Dauntless I'm glad we're out here, being around guns and trains gets… Lonely.

I watched the back of Uriah's head, as he pointed, telling Peter which direction to go in. Uriah was always there for me, when Tobias wasn't… Tobias had a choice to stay but he left, so why should I just stay here and mope?

"Tris, do you see it?" Lauren asked, noticing I was staring at the ground. I looked up, to where Lauren was now pointing, and my jaw dropped. Outside, there was a… A ten story waterfall! Falling into a crystal clear lake, and a big patch of grass by the water, at least five times the size of my old home back in Abnegation. Farther away there was a group of valleys, leading into woods. Right here, now was the best moment of my life since Tobias left, "Anyone else in the mood to go cliff jumping?"
