Chapter 7 (Skye's POV)
Some parts of me still care about Uriah, and how he is in the infirmary. Then, there are these other parts that want to punch him in the face.
I decide to go find Uriah, and at least try to talk to him. I go to the chasm, but he is not there. I go to his apartment, but he is not there either. Where could he be? I go to the training room, and just as I push open the door I see Uriah. Four and him are fighting, and it doesn't look like it will end good.
Before I can stop either of the boys from hurting each other, Uriah is already on the ground. Four knocked him out.
I run over to Uriah's limp body, and shake him. He wakes up, but still can't stand right away.
"What the hell Four! What happened?" I yell at Four.
"What happened, was he was being an idiot." he replies.
Kassie walks in moments later, and see the same horrific scene I saw when I walked through the doors.
"What happened?!" They all yell as they run over.
"Why don't you ask Four." I snap.
"Okay, what happened Four?" Kassie asks.
"I confronted Uriah about what he did to you guys, and he tried to punch me so, I punched him back. It was all in self defense!" Four replies.
"And, I thought you didn't care about him anymore Skye." Four says.
"Just because he made a mistake doesn't mean I ever stopped loving him or caring for him. What kind of sick twisted mind do you have Four?" I ask.
"A pretty twisted one if you knew me as a child." he responds.
This sparks everybodys attention since Four tried to bite back the words to not say them. But, he failed, and we all heard them.
Kassie drags Four out of the room, I guess to question him about the secrets he has been keeping.
I drag Uriah out, even though he did make some mistakes, I still care about him.
By the time I have dragged Uriah halfway to his apartment, he fully awakes from his unconscious state of mind.
"Skye, what happened?" he asks.
"Umm, lets see, Four punched you in the face and then you blacked out." I reply.
"Woah. Why did he do that?" Uriah asks.
"Did you lose your memory or are you just being an idiot?" I ask.
"I am just trying to see if you would tell me the truth." he responds.
"Of course I would tell you the truth, I am part Candor-" I say, but wish I hadn't.
"Wait. you're part Candor?" Uriah says.
"Okay so don't tell anybody, but yes I am Opposite." I reply.
"Oh I won't. And sense we are sharing secrets you should probably know that I am Opposite too." he says.
We continue on to my apartment instead of Uriah's because I do not feel like explaining everything that happened to Zeke.
Luckily, my apartment is not far from Uriah and Zeke's. All you have to do is: walk all the way down their hallway, turn left and I am the fourth door on the right.
We run into Lacey and Kit in the hallway as I am almost there.
"Oh no! What happened!" They both say at once.
"Well as Four said, and I quote, what happened was, he was being an idiot." I reply.
"He said that?" Uriah asks with doubt on his face.
"Yes Uri. He said that." I say back.
"Ooh. We are back to pet names. Okay, Skye-boo." he answers.
"Oh God, lets go Kit." says Lacey as they walk away.
I realize that Uriah and I have been staring at each other for quite a long time now. I break the, I'm not sure if it was romantic or not, stare and open my apartment door.
I motion to Uriah to say "Come in." He does. He comes in and sits down on the couch. I sit next to him, and for the first time since our fight, we kiss. I still feel the same way about him, I just didn't want my friends to know just yet.
We end up watching a movie called "The Fault In Our Stars." It is about these two teenagers, who have both had cancer before, that fall in love. They go on a vacation to see the girls, Hazel's, favorite author. The two teenagers do some pretty scandalous stuff. Then, the boy, Augustus, gets sick with cancer again. Not to burst anyones bubble, or spoil the story, but Augustus dies.
I cried during the movie, only because of how depressing they made his death actually seem. It seemed so real. Not to mention that the actor who played Augustus, was pretty hot.
I look over at Uriah, he is asleep. I slap his cheek, and he wakes up instantly.
"Hey what was that for Skye-boo?" he says.
"You fell asleep at the best part in the movie!" I yell.
"Sorry…. Skye-boo." he snickers after saying it.
He knows I don't like pet names, but to be honest, when he says them I don't mind at all.
"Whatever! Now get out so I can go to sleep!" I say while laughing.
"Aww, I can't stay over again?" he says with puppy dog eyes.
"No you can't mister! You have to make it up to me! Which does not include falling asleep in the middle of a depressing movie where her love dies!" I say back.
"He dies!" Uriah screams as I push him out the door, and kiss him quickly.
