Chapter 6
Tris POV
" girls got nothing on you Tris" –he says while holding my hair with his hands keeping it away from my face. I was kneeling in the bathroom, puking my guts out over the toilet bowl. I have a massive headache, all I want to do is crawl back to bed get under my covers and shut the world out.
" whatever Matt" I retort, shooting death glares at him, it's because of him that entire universe is spinning out of control. I had a drinking contest with of the girls here from Amity, I thought I could beat her because let's be serious how much drinking can anyone from Amity really do in their whole lifetime. Boy! I was wrong and I found out the hard way. After the war everyone became a little freer, a little more open-minded, liberated. So, some of us got together and thought it would be great to throw a party. Try to forget all the bad things, and celebrate all the good around us. I went with Matt, I have asked Susan but she was acting rather strange now that I think about it…..
– " no thank you Tris I'll just stay in my room"
" are you sure? " – " It's going to be fun Susan" I try convincing her. " No, Tris thanks but no thanks" – " hey have you talked to Four" she asked
I gave a blank stare " now why would I talk to him" I asked her – " umm, no reason sorry Tris I really must get going, enjoy the party" before I can ask her anything else she leaves me. …
I should look for her later and ask about it. For now I need some pain killers that will make this hangover go away or numb for a while.
Matt is one of my best friends here, besides Susan. He and I have had a great friendship for the past three years now; we have grown very close to one another. Until yesterday that is, he decided it would be a good idea to kiss me and declare himself in front of everyone.
I get up from the floor, Matt leaves giving much-needed privacy. I get cleaned up, take a quick shower. I change in the bathroom putting on sweatpants and shirt that is two sizes too big. I plan in staying in my room for the rest of the day, with Matt keeping me company.
As I step out of the room, I say " let's talk about the elephant in the room" – I say until he cuts me off ….. " Tris I told you not to degrade yourself like that". I walk over to him hitting on the arm – " well I wasn't talking about me" I say " I was talking about your big head" he looks me with disbelieve. He breaks out in laughter, until I put on a serious face. " no, but Matt we really need to discuss what happen yesterday" I start to say, he cuts me off my putting his finger on lips to silence me.
" I know how you feel about Four" he says , putting his forehead on mine " I know how you feel about everything, all I ask is that you give us a chance" . His words are sweet and gentle they make me smile; I close my eyes and breathe in his scent. It's a bittersweet moment; I know is time I move on, maybe I can move on with Matt. I take a step of bravery, I fade the space between us, and I place my hands on the side of his face and kiss him. I passionately kiss Matt; he kisses me back sending shivers down my spine.
" umm! WOW! I didn't see that coming" he says parting away to breathe." I guess you still need time to think huh?" he says sarcastically. I roll my eyes trying to hide the blush on cheeks that came out of nowhere – "sarcasm does not suit you" I retort.
" but is part of my charming personally Tris" giving the puppy eyes. " so this mean that you will give us a chance?" he asks.
" yes Matt this means that I will give us a chance, it also means that you can go to the cafeteria and bring me breakfast"
" maybe I should reconsider you being my girlfriend" you are way too demanding he starts to get up from the bed heading out the door.
" well maybe you should have thought about it first, because now there is nothing you can do, you are stuck with me" I say playfully – " now go" .
He gives another kiss before leaving. " you should rest" he says " I'll wake up when I come back with breakfast" I nod in agreement.
I place my head on my pillow thinking about what just happened with Matt; I trace my lips with my fingers going over and over where Matt kissed me. His lips were soft and felt amazingly good against mine. I haven't felt this happy in a long time; I close my eyes trying to doze off to a beautiful sleep a knock on the door brings me out of my trance. "Wow, that was fast" I say, making my way to open the door. As I open the door my jaw drops to the floor, there standing looking at me with those eyes is the one person that hates me so much and wants nothing to with me.
My heart begins to pick up its pace, my hands are getting sweaty. " what are you doing here, what did I do now" I meant to say more stern, than it actually sounded. I was going to ask again, when it all happened so fast that he caught me off guard. He is kissing me, likes he is hungry, like his live depended on it, and all I can do was kiss him back.
His hands grab my waist he pressing me closer to him leaving no space between us, my hand travel to his hair " when did I decide to that?" I think to myself. …
" Tris I'm sorry"- he says in between kisses. We pull apart for air, I stare at him, all of sudden a feeling of anger runs through me. I slap him leaving my small stinging from the contact it made with his face. " what the hell is this about Four" I yell at him – " don't you ever kiss me again, you have made it perfectly clear you want nothing do with me" I scream louder and louder.
Tears start to fall down my face, don't cry don't you dare cry I mentally tell myself…. he closes the door, lets himself in without even asking if he can.
" Four get out of my room this very instinct, you have no right to here" – I stop to catch my breath " STOP FUCKING WITH ME FOUR GET OUT" looking at me he says…. .
" no, I won't leave until you hear what I have to say" he calmly states. – ' what do you want from me Four" . He steps closer only leaving six inches between us, like when we were on the ferris wheel. Six inches closer than he has been since we broke up, six inches that make my heart do somersaults.
He takes my face between his hands " Tris I've been such an idiot, I treated you like nothing, when in fact you are everything to me" – I close my eyes I can't look at him I can't make this easy for him. He can't think he can get me back just because he had a change of heart. I can't let that happen, I won't let that happen.
" Four you can't be here" – I wanted to say, then he kiss me again. I've missed his lips on mine, I want him more than ever. I know that Matt will be back any minute with the breakfast I asked him to get me. – oh! Matt, I told him I would give us a chance.
" Four stop please don't please stop Four" – he releases – " things are different Four " ….. " you can't just barge in my room start kissing and think everything would be the same" I tell him while my eyes are still close.
" Why Tris why can't we try again" I was about to response when someone beat me to it….
" because she is with me, because I haven't hurt her the way you did Four" it was Matt standing by the door.
When did he get there…. God he's like a ninja. "Beatrice Prior" stop it - I say in my head.
Four pulls away, I stay in the same spot without moving my feet which feel like they're glue to the floor – " and who the hell are you" asks Four in his instructor voice. " I'm Matt, Tris new boyfriend, and you are Four, Tris past and we both prefer you stay there" Four looks stun, dumbfounded his ears probably can't believe what they just heard shit I don't even believe what I just heard.
" Matt please stop, Four was just leaving" I say – Four open his mouth I thought to say something productive , but instead he leans down and kisses me again in front of Matt. Before I can even protest or push Four away he says - " I think I'm still very much in her present"
He walks towards the door shoving Matt with his shoulder. " umm Matt" I stutter " I didn't know he was coming here, I mean everything happened so fast" I try to explain, he just looks at me with those puppy eyes.
" Tris, I will ask you this once and only once" – I'm scare of his question, I have an idea of what it is and I can't lie to him.
" do you want to be with him" he asks bluntly – I don't respond I simply put my head down looking at my feet, the silence gave him the answer he needed. He leaves my room, but not before leaving the breakfast he got for me on top of the table.
I start to cry, but I quickly dismiss the tears. I put on my shoes I get up and leave my room. I need to dots some I' and cross some t's with Four.
until next time...
