Tobias POV
Chapter 9
"Four" I hear Zeke's voice whisper, "Four, wake up," He says, shaking my shoulder lightly.
I open my eyes to a dark room and see Zeke looking at me, gesturing for me to get up, but carefully.
I do as he says and am careful not to wake Tris who is wrapped up in her blanket, asleep beside me.
He gets up from his spot and walks to the far side of the room.
Although the room isn't cold, I still miss the sensation of the soft blanket I was using.
I glance at Zeke who is now accompanied by a tired-looking Uriah and a confused Will.
"Let's prank the girls," Zeke says with too much enthusiasm at this time of the morning.
"You woke us up at 5 am to tell us this?" Uriah queries.
Zeke rolls his eyes, "I woke you up at 5 am so we could do it now" he whispers as someone, Tris, stirs slightly.
"What do you suggest we do?" Will questions.
"Two words," Zeke says" Cold. Water."
We get to work immediately. The four of us go upstairs and fill a bucket each up with cold water, and then head back down.
"Will, You get Christina. Uriah, Marlene. Four, Tris, and I'll do Shauna" Zeke whispers.
We all nod and position ourselves by our assigned soon to be victims of Zeke's prank.
I study Tris carefully. Her long blonde hair is sprawled across the pillow. Her face looks relaxed and her lips are slightly parted.
Her expression almost makes me feel guilty.
Almost.
"Three," Zeke whisper yells, "Two, One."
Before Zeke even says go, I can hear screams of protest coming from the girls.
I lift the heavy bucket of water and tip it over Tris.
She whimpers slightly and her eyes open, but instead of complaining like the others, she simply sits up and opens her arms, embraces me tightly.
It takes a second for me to realise what she's doing. The cold water from her soaks into my shirt as I move her off me and laugh.
"Four" She pouts.
I get up moving away from her, staying in a defensive position.
She giggles slightly and tosses the now wet blanket on the floor.
"Thanks a lot, guys" Christina complains.
"Yeah" Marlene adds, giving Uriah a dirty look.
"It was Zeke's idea" Uriah defends as all the guys but Zeke nod.
"You better watch out" Shauna mumbles.
Everyone gets up, the girls claiming the showers first making us guys wait.
"Yesterday was fun," Will says.
"Yeah, I don't want to go home" Uriah pouts.
"How about we go to mine and Shauna's, just us guys" Zeke suggests.
"Where will Shauna go?" I question.
"I'll be here. Us girls are staying" Shauna says as she enters the room.
After breakfast, the girls go up to the living room while us guys start to head off.
Will and Uriah head into their own cars as I get into Zeke's who is driving me to my place so I can go in my car.
As we approach Marcus house, I get out of the car and seeing as Marcus' car is gone, I head inside and change clothes.
After getting dressed I get into my car and drive in the direction of Zeke's.
Just five minutes later I arrive at Zeke's.
I park my car just outside of his house and pound at the door.
"Finally," Zeke says rolling his eyes.
I ignore his comment and make my way through the door and up the stairs where Uriah and Will are.
They were both sitting on Zeke's sofa each with a handful of crisps in one hand and a controller in the other, both desperately trying to beat the other at whatever game they were playing.
"Nice of you to show up" Uriah says, without looking at me.
I grunt, "I was only ten minutes late" I respond
"Just grab a controller and play," Will says, ending the conversation.
The next hour is spent playing with Zeke, Will and Uriah. But most importantly. Beating them.
"Pause, pause, pause," Zeke says as Uriah hits the pause button.
"I'm getting a call from Shauna" he informs.
Zeke answers his phone and puts it on speaker so we can all hear.
"Hey, Zeke," Shauna's voice says, "you boys might want to check your car's," she says and a few giggles that I believe are from the girls can be heard.
Zeke frantically gets up and goes to his car, as we all follow by going to our own cars.
Much to my displeasure, Shauna's statement wasn't a warning, but a statement from an action that has already occurred.
Zeke stands still, observing his car that is covered completely in glad wrap, although it isn't as bad as Will's car that is covered in purple glitter.
Uriah's car has got cotton balls stuck on it and my car has drawing, writing and splotches of paint on it.
We are all broken from our trance as Zeke's phone makes a sound indicating he got a text from Shauna.
He pulls out his phone and reads the text. "Revenge."
Before we even have a chance to prosses this, Uriah begins to speak.
"Prank war!" He proclaims.
We all nod, and decide to think of prank ideas, while we wash our cars, and rid them of the remnants of what the girls did.
I grab a sponge and get to work on my car, although the situation isn't the brightest, I'm glad my car doesn't look like Zeke, Uriah, or Will's car.
The little paintings that were done give me something to entertain myself with, while I'm cleaning, as well as the words painted on the car.
I know the car was painted by Tris and it's definitely not just because there are the words 'xoxo Tris' and 'I have the best boss' painted on my car.
After I finish washing my car, I go to help Will who is having a hard time getting the glitter off his car.
"Clothes," he mumbled. I raise a brow in confusion as he begins to explain, "We should do something with their clothes as a prank."
"That's a great idea'" Zeke says, as he walks towards us with Uriah.
"Okay, here's what's going to happen," Will says, as we all huddle around him.
After going to the store to gather some supplies for our next attack on the girls, we head to Tris' house, where we assume the girls are.
Uriah walks to the small potted plant that is located next to the door, something I hadn't noticed last time, and digs around slightly in the soil, only to retrieve a key.
He quickly slides the key into the lock and the door opens.
As there isn't a single noise that us guys didn't make, I think it's safe to say that the girls aren't home.
"Wait," I say, as Uriah begins to take a step inside, "What's the point of doing this to Tris' clothes only?" I question earning a laugh out of the others.
"Oh Four," Will mumbles, "The girls keep some clothes at Tris' place, we come here a lot" he explains.
I nod as I follow Zeke upstairs and into a large bedroom I can only assume is Tris'
A queen-sized white bed with a padded headboard is placed in the middle of the room, its headboard against the wall. A deep grey comforter envelopes the bed as a fluffy light grey throw is placed near the end of the bed.
The walls are a light grey and have multiple pictures of Tris, Caleb, Tori and two people I can only assume are her parents.
A balcony with glass doors is located on the far side of the room, where a small mahogany desk is placed along with a comfy brown chair.
A fluffy grey mat is placed underneath her bed for extra comfort, and two bedside tables are placed on either side of her bed with small but nice laps that hold yellow bulbs.
Her wardrobe is on the opposite side of the balcony.
Zeke opens the double doors that lead inside her quite large walk-in wardrobe, you can see the difference between Tris' clothes and the other girl's clothes.
We quickly get to work as we place the bag with glitter and divide up the bottles.
I start on the right-hand side of a section that has Christina's clothes. Each item of clothing is individually sprinkled with a large amount of glitter that sticks to the fabric, coating the clothing.
After fifteen minutes of silent hard work, we are all about finished coating every item in the closet, with the exception of shoes.
Seeming quite pleased with our handiwork, we decide to get out before any of the girls come home, unfortunately, that didn't go as planned.
We head down the stairs as the sound of giggling comes from the front door.
"Damn" Uriah hisses, as he hears it too.
"Hide," Zeke says, whispering.
We all scramble to find someplace to hide and considering Zeke's hiding spot was behind the coat hanger, my spot under the side table by the door seems sufficient enough.
The door opens as the girls walk in and then abruptly stop as they see Zeke.
"What are you doing here Zeke?" Tris questions as Zeke smiles sheepishly.
"Four?" Shauna questions, as my location becomes compromised.
I crawl out of my hiding spot as Uriah and Will come into the hallway, knowing they'd be found next.
"Alright, so what did you do" Christina questions, although she says it like a statement.
"Uhh," Uriah stammers, as Will sighs and motions for everyone to follow him.
We all walk up to Tris' room in silence.
Zeke walks inside and opens the door to her wardrobe, revealing the girl's glitter infested clothing.
All the girls shout in protest, all but Tris who seems to be frozen on the spot.
Marlene also notices this as she places a hand on Tris' shoulder gently.
"Tris are you okay?" she questions with a soft tone.
Tris seems to ignore the comment and slowly takes a step inside the wardrobe, she heads to the section where her clothes are and I hear her gasp as her fingers brush over the white dress that is on one of the hangers.
I look a bit closer only to realise what that dress was:
A wedding dress.
I know for a fact that Tris isn't married so I can only assume that the dress is her mothers.
"Out," Tris says, turning back to face all of us, a fire burning in her eyes.
"Everyone out" She repeats, with the same harshness.
We all make our way out of Tris' room, down the stairs and out the door.
"We messed up" Uriah mumbles.
And I couldn't agree more.
