Watching Tris and Four, I discovered that a group of Divergent's were heading outside of the fence. Eric still sat with me, suddenly a lot more interested in my work, and what they were doing. I found myself constantly stroking the necklace at my throat, unable to forget that my best friend was my brother. The person who had gotten a home life while I was left to the factionless. I watched as they made their way to the fence, and outside it, and made their way to the bureau. "This is going to be bad..." I muttered, as they were picked up and driven to the building. This area, I was a bit more blind too, but I could hear them clearly. It was boring at first, for weeks actually, until I picked up on Four talking to Nita about getting the memory serum. I couldn't help but laugh, and call Four an idiot, something Eric enjoyed hearing me say.
For days Tris was suspicious of Four, and she had every right. But she didn't know he was sneaking around behind her back and planning missions without her, she just knew that he was acting weird, and was sleeping in his clothes again. This bored Eric and I to no end, and we instead began to play games with each other. Stupid ones like truth or dare, would you rather, stuff like that. It was kind of nice, actually. To see him not being the tough leader that pushed kids around, and to see him be nice and happy, and to have him laughing at my stupid little jokes. We became something like best friends, but I have to say we were a bit more affectionate than that, you know, the friendly shoulder shoves, touching each others hands in intense moments. I have to admit, I was starting to fall for him.
When the bomb went off in the bureau, it took out one of my microphones, causing me to be blind in one area of the compound, but that didn't stop me from hearing the new plan, where Tris would go in and get the memory serum, since there was a chance she could survive it, but no, Caleb would go instead. I got bored of their arguing, and went to grab some snacks, leaving Eric in charge of monitoring them. Nothing happened in my absence. "God, this is boring." he complained. "Well, we could go and help with their mission." I said, shrugging. Surprisingly, Eric agreed. Though I think he just wanted to see the look on Four's face when he saw that Eric was alive. Whatever the reason, we packed up, shut down the system in the house, and made our way to the bureau. We camped out near the compound for a few days, with a mobile device that let us listen in on their conversations, until the day they were finally going to execute their mission. Then we ran in.
