I don't own Divergent!
Read, Review, and Enjoy
I get up out of the bed rubbing my eyes, and see Eric, rubbing his temple.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" I say with a yawn
"Work wants me in tonight, and I was going to surprise you, after I got back from my mom's" he says
Something is telling me he isn't lying
"Its ok, I was counting on having this night alone to relax, the last couple days have been shit" I say
"Well sorry babe" he says moving forward trying to kiss me
"No you're not" I say without thinking, but I don't regret it
"What?" he fills with rage, his fists clench, I fear he may hit me.
"You heard me" I say, I brace myself, haven't felt threatened since Peter.
"I understand you are sad you're mom died the other day, but stop with these notions that I'm cheating on you" he says still fuming with anger
"No, I'm saying ever since I got out of the institution all we do is fight" I say
"We will talk about this later, I have to get ready" he says walking off his hand shaking, he is still furious, but he knows when to walk off.
"Whatever" I say and I fall on the couch with my feet bouncing up, and curling up to my chest.
I grab my book, the first book to the mortal instruments series. Not long Eric comes back out in his work uniform.
"Babe I love you, we will talk about this later" he says slipping his shoes on, and grabbing his keys, then walking over and kissing my head.
"Talk to you later" I say
"Enjoy you're night, I'll leave twenty bucks here for pizza" he says dropping the money on the counter
I don't say anything
"Do I even get a kiss?" he says
I almost say no, but then I think, I need a place to stay for now, so I get up, and give him a quick kiss. I'm only a bitch because I'm hating life right now, but I would rather hate life outside the institution then inside. I loo
"Thank you" he sighs
"I love you" I say first
"I love you too" he says
"See you when you get back" I say
He nods and walks out the door. Finally!
I run to my room and take a short bath. I get out change into black booty shorts, and a grey Pink Floyd tank top, spray myself, I smell like cotton candy. And wear my very worn out grey converse with rainbow laces. I look down at my outfit, cute but screams preteen, but I guess that is unavoidable with my lack of feminine features. I brush my teeth and toss a jolly rancher in my mouth, they make my breathe smell fruity and good. I do a quick hair flip, and then bump my hair up a little, so it's a mess but cute. I walk out of the apartment, locking it before I exit.
I realize I have ten minutes to get to the park by the school. Well, shit. I plug my ear phones into my piece of shit IPod and begin my music, and take off sprinting, people stare at me as I pass cars and houses, I can see the park, and Tobias, and Zeke aren't there yet, at least I don't see a car waiting. A cop turns his lights on and drives next to me slowly. Fucking hell.
"Are you running from something, sweetheart?" the cop says lowering his head to see out the driver's side window.
"No, I'm late to study with a friend" I say with a smile.
"You sure? Aren't you Beatrice Prior?" He questions
Of course every cop in the vicinity knows my beautiful face.
"No I'm Tris Johnson" I say. And it's only partly a lie, Tris is my nickname, and Johnson is Eric's last name.
"Can I see an ID?" he says
"Sure" I say then shove my hand in my back pocket, fake a shocked face then frantically check my other
"I'm sorry officer, appears I left it behind at least I hope I didn't drop it" I look back faking scared
"Hey everything all right here?" Zeke says after running over to me panting, I didn't see them drive by or him running weird.
"No, It's alright miss, just don't stay out too late, and don't forget your ID next time" he is worried but the radio turns on and starts saying words midsentence
"I will be careful officer, thanks for your concern. Keep up the good work" I say smiling
He nods and drives off, speeding up quickly, then turning down the next street
Fucking idiot I think to myself
Zeke and I walk back to the yellow sports car waiting by the park
"What was that about?" Zeke breaks the silence
"I was running, must have had someone call on me for some stupid reason" I say
"People call on the stupidest of shit, I remember a neighborhood over from our house called the cops on me and Uriah, because they thought we were homeless kids" Zeke says and I laugh
"I'm serious" he says defending
"I can see it" I say
We make it back to the car, Four is driving
Zeke opens the passenger door and moves the seat forward to climb in back
"Do I get to drive?" I ask
"Nope, I can't even drive my own car when I'm with Four" Zeke says pouting.
"And why is that? Obi?" I say and bite my lip smiling
"Don't call me that and just get in the car" he says obviously annoyed
"Oh and I thought you wanted to be friends" I say jumping in the passenger seat
"I never said that" Tobias says
I stay quiet the rest of the ride, I don't know where we are but we are speeding down the street till we round a corner and park on the street. Weird. I get out and wait for Zeke to get out, when he does I grab his hand. Zeke and I follow Tobias to the front door, and he knocks, a women answers the door, I can see little resemblance between Tobias, and her.
"Oh, Tob" she starts to say then stops when she sees Tobias shaking his head vigorously. I think Zeke is just confused, he doesn't seem to know Four's real name.
"Four now" he says, and she looks disappointed but then nods.
"Common in, and introduce me to you're friends" she says
"This is Zeke, and Tris" Tobias says, he says my name as if I'm just an annoyance. Well fuck him too.
"Zeke, Tris, this is my mom Evelynn" Tobias says
We shake hands with Evelynn then go inside to the kitchen. I see another boy cooking dinner.
"This is Edward" Tobias says, Edward turns around enough to see he has a black eye patch. Waves and immediately turns back to cooking.
"Would you like some help?" I say
"No thank you" Edward says
I just nod, and hear laughter, from Zeke and Tobias, and two far away voices, I walk over to Tobias, and Zeke sitting at the table, each holding a beer. As I walk past the door to the kitchen I see the front door open, and two familiar faces.
Sorry its kind of confusing but all will become clear, if you are really confused and have specific questions PM me and i will answer them.
Nicknames, I'm just kind of bad at consistency so I forgot to use them, so I'm going to play it off like she needs to know they are ok with her calling them the nicknames, mainly Tobias. Its like if someone decided a nickname for you and your friends some people may like the nicknames and you may not like yours, so give it time. other then that she doesn't listen to authority very well so she doesn't care for Jean and Pal's opinions
Feel like i'm forgetting something... oh well i guess
