So we're going to be ending pretty soon. I still have a lot more to get out. Some last minute drama that will happen to our characters. Don't worry no one is breaking up. I think I kind of had that whole boyfriend/girlfriend drama in the beginning. But now I'm trying to get into some other stuff. What better way to end the Senior year of high school for the gang then going out with a bang?

There wasn't that much time for Eric and I to be alone again before school started. And when I mean alone, I mean that Eric and I had not been intimate with one another. With Aidan returning there wasn't much time for ourselves to be us. Eric was spending it once again with the boys and I was with Cara and Myra. It wouldn't have mattered much but after our small fight I wanted Eric, like really wanted Eric.
The plane ride was full of noise. There were a couple other students who were travelling back to Dauntless. Will decided to hop on the plane with us instead of driving back. Edward and Myra were more than thrilled about that idea.
"It was a long drive," stated Myra. "I'm not going to lie."
Classes resumed almost immediately. I hated Mr. Weston's class. He was piling on the work claiming that it was readying us for college. A couple teachers only did the final class project that we would need to submit and a few homework assignments.
At the ending of the first week, I found myself in the library with Eric. I was pressed up against a book shelf, Eric's hand hiked up my skirt while I was unbuttoning his shirt. We hadn't had a moment's peace together and it was getting on my nerves. The guys were commanding his every minute. I wanted to say that football season was over, but the Coach continued to train the Seniors just the same as the Juniors, especially those who were going to play at the University level. Since Eric was one of those players, after class he had practice.
"Eric," I moaned as he sucked on my neck.
"Sh, Alex," he chuckled pulling back. "Not too loud, love."
"Well then," I giggled as I threw his school shirt off and started to unbuckle his pants. "You, my love, need to stop making it feel so... oh Eric," I moaned again.
"Jesus you two."
Eric and I both pulled away from each other to see Edward, Four, and Zeke leaning up against one of the other book shelves.
"I hate to take him away," Edward said looking at me. "But we have..."
"No," I shouted.
"Sh," Zeke came by to cover my mouth. I pushed his hand away as Eric put on his shirt and started to button it back up.
"Eric," I whined.
"I know, I'm sorry," he kissed my forehead.
It continued that way for a while. The following week school, classes, and practice had surrounded our every minute. When we did end up sleeping in the same room in the same bed, that was all we did, was sleep. I knew he didn't like going to my room because Christina was there but I didn't like sleeping in his. Eric barely touched me because Aidan was sleeping there.
I tried to get him to play around under the covers but he wouldn't.
"Eric," I tried to rub my body against his lower half pleading with him.
"Your brother is right over there," Eric whispered kissing my cheek.
"I'm tired of these little touches, I really missed being with you."
"You're with me now."
"You're barely even holding me," I almost screamed.
"Yes I am," Eric wrapped his arms tighter around me. "Alex, I just feel very uncomfortable that your brother is in the same room."
"I miss your room," I snuggled into him.
"I know," he kissed my hair.
"I just," I let out a sigh. "It's not because you don't want me anymore is it?"
"How can you even think that, Alex? Of course I still want you. I'll always want you," Eric's head moved to nuzzle into my neck.
"I want you too."
"I didn't think I would make you feel unwanted, Alex," he pulled back. "But I assure you, I want the physical part of our relationship just as much you do and I only want to share that with you."
"Thanks Eric. I just don't want to seem like some whiny, bitchy, demanding girlfriend."
"Alexandria Kent," he moved my head to look up at him and gave me a small kiss. "You are not being some whiny, bitchy, demanding girlfriend. I know we haven't spent as much time together lately. I miss it too, Alex."
"I know," I rested my head back on his chest. "I wish we could just go back to when it was just you and me. I knew I was going to hate coming back to school," I rolled my eyes.
Eric leaned forward and kissed my forehead. "Don't worry, love. We'll find time to be together soon."
Almost a month later, an entire month later, we were sitting around celebrating Four's eighteenth birthday with a party. Well it wasn't really a party. It was more like a few of us getting together to goof off, talk story, catch up, and some other stuff. Four did not want a big deal about it. Eric and I still seemed to be growing apart physically. I want to say that school was taking its toll, especially with final essays and exams. It's like we hardly had time anymore and it kind of pissed me off.
In fact we were here at Four's little birthday shindig and Eric was spending time with the guys. Myra noticed and said that we could have our own little time together.
I had complained to her, and only her, about it. I even called up America to talk to her about it. I didn't want to feel unwanted. Eric assured me that he wanted me and that there were just other things going on. I couldn't help it either. Some days it was really bad and I just wanted a make out session but all I would get is a kiss on the forehead.
"Come on," Lauren said handing me a cup that no doubt had alcohol in it. "We're at a party."
I was on Four and Zeke's couch in their dorm room, sitting on Lynn's lap. Yes, I said Lynn. Curled up on the side of her was Lauren and resting her head in Lauren's lap was Myra.
"Oh my God," said Uriah. "That is just hot beyond all reason right now."
"Shut up," all four of us said.
"Hey let's play truth or dare," shouted Shauna. Half of us groaned.
"Ooh," Christina clapped. "Let's play truth and dare!"
"Oh boy," Lynn rolled her eyes behind me.
"Alright, sounds good with me," said Will.
"Anything Christina says sounds good to you," teased Peter as a few of the guys chuckled. Christina stuck her tongue out at them as Will rubbed her back.
"It's up to birthday boy over here," Aidan clapped Four on the back.
To our surprise Four actually didn't mind playing. It was not long until a game was started. None of the girls felt like moving the couch. In fact it seemed like a couple more had gathered there. We went a few rounds with the girls almost declining every dare or truth. The guys accepted almost every challenge, almost.
"Alright, who's next," Eric looked towards the couch.
"None of the girls are going to do it," cried out Edward.
"Yeah, you girls are lame," Zeke called out. My all started a happy banter back and forth until finally Peter stopped it.
"Okay, wait, wait, wait," he said standing up. "We'll let Eric decide. After all it's his call. So, who's it going to be?"
"Alex," Eric chimed in.
I rolled my eyes. "Dare," I told him.
"Well, my beautiful sexy girlfriend," he joked.
"Yes my handsome caring boyfriend," I replied sarcastically.
"I dare you to," he looked over at Edward and then turned back to me. "I dare you to kiss..."
"No, no, no," I protested. "I'm not kissing anyone. Why would you even dare me to do something like that?"
"You didn't even let me finish," Eric said. "Besides if you reject the dare if you have to take something off and you, my love, are the only one sitting over there with a shirt on." I looked around to see that out of the six girls squished on the couch, I was definitely the only one with a shirt on.
"So what you just want to see me take off my shirt?"
"You're saying you're not going to do the dare," he questioned back with a smirk. How I hated it when he gave me that smirk, that smirk that made me go weak in the knees and giddy all over.
"Fine," I huffed. "Who is it?"
"I dare you to kiss Myra," Eric finished.
"What," Myra, Tris, Lauren, Marlene, and even I questioned in shock.
"Yes," Lynn cheered. I looked at her. "What? I can't help it. After seeing all of you get dared to kiss each other, I'm kind of glad it's some little girl on girl action."
"Of course you are," said Tris.
I turned to Myra as she lifted her head off of Lauren's lap and I crawled away from Lynn. "You're okay with this," I asked Myra quietly.
"To be honest, I want to see what the hype is," she looked at Lynn. "And if I had to absolutely kiss a girl then it would be you."
I didn't feel too bad about what she said. In fact it almost made it seem like a privilege that Myra and I were going to be committing this naughty behavior together. It almost washed away the fact that I was nervous. I let out a small giggle when Myra and I were face to face. I couldn't believe I was so nervous about kissing Myra.
"Wait," Lauren called out when Myra and I were about to lean in.
All the guys groaned, even Lynn, when Myra and I pulled back a little to look at Lauren. She whispered something in Myra's ear and then Myra shook her head.
"Come on," Lauren told her.
Myra pouted and looked at me. She leaned in but it wasn't to kiss me.
"Lauren said you should take off your shirt," Myra whispered.
"What," I pulled away.
"You're delaying it," complained Justin. Myra and I shout him a glare. "Sorry," he looked down a bit ashamed. I looked over to see actually all of the guys were watching us intently.
"If you don't want to," Myra said.
"No, that would probably be better," I shrugged.
"Yes," Lauren clapped.
I rolled my eyes at her and then turned to Myra. "I can't believe my boyfriend dared me to do this. But if I'm going to do this, then I might as well go all the way."
"What," this time it was Eric and Edward who looked confused.
My hands didn't play with the bottom of my shirt instead it came off quickly.
"You're not doing the dare," asked Four in disbelief. He looked around at the other guys but I threw my shirt at Eric's face.
The second my shirt hit Eric, I reached out for Myra's face, cupping her cheek and pulling her to me. Our eyes instantly shut. Surprisingly it wasn't that bad. Myra's lips were soft and I could taste her lip gloss. Her hand was on my side, right below my bra. My hand was in her hair and it wasn't long until we heard a few groans of pleasure coming from the guys.
I pulled away from Myra and bit my bottom lip. Her eyes opened slowly and she smiled at me. I looked over at the Eric and saw him staring at me, shifting to control the desire that I know was building in him. I turned back to Myra.
Myra pulled my body back against hers and kissed me again. Both she and I moaned into each other's mouths, grabbing onto one another's arm, hair, sides, or waist. Myra's hand even slipped right above my butt.
I got quickly pulled away and looked to see none other than Eric holding me. "You dared me," I said sweetly running my finger down his abs to the top of his pants. He took a sharp inhale of air before picking me up and taking me out of the room.
"I guess Eric and Alex are done playing," Peter chuckled as we left.
"You just had to do that didn't you," Eric growled as he opened the door to my dorm room.
"Why, did it turn you on that your girl was kissing another girl?"
"A little," he said. "More than anything I'm jealous actually," he shut down with his foot.
"Jealous," I raised an eyebrow at him.
"Only I can make you moan like that," Eric said basically throwing me on the bed.
His kisses were demanding and I gave in to every single request. "I missed you, I missed this, I missed us," I moaned in between kisses.
"Well then," he hovered above me taking off his shirt. "Let me not keep my girlfriend waiting."
"ALEX KENT!"
I jumped up in bed only to come face to face with Christina. Her arms were crossed and she did not look happy.
"You kicked me out of our room last night," she proclaimed.
"No I didn't," I responded.
Christina pointed down to the bed. I looked over to see Eric lying down on his side, his leg wrapped around the lower half of my body, and a comforter engulfing our tangled nakedness. I hugged the comforter to my chest and nudged Eric.
"Mm," he groaned, pulling me closer and kissing my bare back.
"We have to get up," I prodded Eric.
"No," he mumbled dragging me back under the blanket and pulling his body half onto my own.
"Eric," I squealed when he started to kiss my neck. His hand was starting to grab onto my butt when Christina screamed.
"Alex!"
"Alright, alright," I pushed Eric back who looked startled Christina was here standing by the bed.
"Dammit Alex, why didn't you tell me that Christina was in here," he moved the blanket to hide himself.
"I didn't see anything," Christina rolled her eyes. "However you did kick me out of my room last night when you two decided to have your own little party in here."
"Hey, you kick out Alex almost every week, sometimes three times a week," Eric pointed out. "Besides I'm pretty sure you went to sleep at Will's."
"Yes I was, but..."
"If you were with Will," I said putting on my underwear and bra under the covers. "Then why are you getting so upset?"
"Well," she looked uncertain but still stood there.
I was able to shimmy my shorts on and got out. Eric's eyes wandered over my body and I knew someone that he had left a mark somewhere, especially with that satisfactory grin that he was displaying.
"Well," I looked at Christina expectantly.
"Because I had to use his shower this morning and he has that stupid dandruff shampoo that I hate and look at my hair," she yelled out all at once. "Look at my hair," she protested again. "It's going to take forever to make something out of this nonsense. And look at my clothes," she continued her rant. "I had to walk out in last night's clothes. You know I don't like the walk of shame. I can't own it! That's why I rather have packed up something of mine to take over to Will's or..."
"Why don't you just leave some things at Will's? Tris said she does and..."
"No, Alex you don't understand," she pouted falling back onto her bed. Almost instantly Christina started to cry and I had no idea what to do. She was always so happy. Yes she had her freak out emotional moments about clothes, her hair, or something else. But something told me that this was deeper than that.
Eric tugged on my shorts. "Can you ask her to leave so I can change?"
"Eric," I screamed at him.
"What?"
"She doesn't care about what you have," I pointed down to him. "Just take the blanket and walk to the bathroom."
"Are you kicking me out," Eric looked at me confused.
"I'll come and get you later," I picked up his clothes, grabbed his hand and pushed him towards the bathroom.
Once he was inside, I turned towards Christina.
"Okay, what is this really about?"
Christina started to mumble. Then the next thing I knew she was hyperventilating. She was trying to get the words out but couldn't. I rubbed her back and pulled her head to rest on my shoulder. After few more minutes of Christina crying and Eric came out. I shooed him away, promising that we would see each other after. The second the door closed, Christina straightened herself up.
"Alex?"
"Yes, Christina."
"My parents are getting a divorce," Christina said. "My mom has been having an affair. My dad isn't my actual dad."
"Oh Christina," I pulled her into a hug.
"She called me up this morning. She couldn't even tell me in person when I was at home. They were going through the paperwork then. I should have called them out on it. I knew something was wrong," Christina grabbed onto my shirt. "I could feel it."
"Sh," I tried to soothe her running my hand over her hair.
"One day we spent with my dad and the other day with her. We didn't do anything as family! How could she, Alex? How could she do that to my Dad?!"
"I don't know, Christina," I told her honestly.
"I didn't know how to respond. I just hang up, put my clothes back on and left Will's room to come here," she started to sob.
"What else did she say to you?"
"She's taking my sister and moving out. My other sister is my Dad's daughter, so my mom is letting her stay with him. But little Rose," Christina cried. "She's only eight! Then there's me," she pulled back. Her face was red and hot with tears. "What am I going to do?"
"It's going to be okay, Christina," I said. "I know it seems bleak but you are the most beautiful, caring, spirited, outspoken person that I know. People like you are resilient. You'll get through this, I know you will." I hugged her tightly again. "And if you ever need anyone, you know you have all of your friends here, including me, who will be there for you."
"Thank you, Alex," she squeezed me tightly.
I let her cry it out for another half hour or so. Another hour went by of silence, just me holding on to Christina as we sat on top of her bed. She finally stood up and went to the bathroom to wash her face.
"You want me to call Tris and Marlene," I offered when she came out. "We can watch a chic flick, eat that caramel popcorn that you like. We can even order Chinese food?"
"I do love Chinese food," she put on a small smile.
I gave her another hug. Christina made me promise not to tell Will yet. She wanted to tell him on her own time and I respected her decision about it. All the girls came, even Lynn and her girlfriend. The only other people she told about her parents were Tris and Shauna. It wasn't long until Christina was smiling again. It was going to be a long road for her but at least she knew that there would be people helping her along the way.
