(A/N: I do not own Divergent. Nor will I ever. I just own my ideas.)
Hey sorry I haven't updated in a while. My goal is to produce good chapters and if that means you have to wait a couple days than I am willing to let that happen. Wouldn't you rather read a good, long chapter that you had to wait for than a short crappy chapter that was posted the day after the previous one? I know I would. Now on to Lost Love
Four POV
I wake up feeling very stiff. I look around and see I am in the training room. I shrug my shoulders and push off the wall to stand. My back cracks and I move my body around to loosen it up. Once I am satisfied that I am fully awake, I make my way out of the training room toward the cafeteria.
I look in and see it full of people. My eyes wander around the room until I find the person I am looking for. Zeke.
I didn't know if he was going to be here or not but he is and he is sitting in the corner all alone just staring at his plate. Before I go over to him, I grab some coffee, a muffin and 2 slices of Dauntless cake. If there is one thing that Zeke loved as much as Shauna was Dauntless cake.
When I put the stuff on the table Zeke is at, he perks up a little but when he realizes it's me he just looks back down. "Nice to see you too Zeke," I say, sarcastically. I slide the piece of cake I got for him in front of him which causes him to lift his head up. "Thanks Four," he says sadly.
We both eat quickly until there is just trash in front of us. "Want to talk about it?" I ask and he looks at me. "Shauna broke up with me last night." He says and I am shocked. I didn't expect it to be this serious. "Do you know why?" I ask hesitantly. He nods, "She said she didn't love me anymore. We have been dating for 2 years and she tells me this now. I was going to propose to her soon. I thought she was the one." He says, voice cracking.
I stay quiet for a while. Not really knowing what to say. Finally Zeke breaks the silence. "Four, I know this is a lot to ask but would it be alright if I moved in with you. Shauna and I have been sharing an apartment since initiation ended and I don't have anywhere to go." "Sure Zeke. I get it, she wants the apartment. We can go grab your stuff now and move it if you want. It's 8:30 so she should be at work." I say to him and he nods.
We both get up and throw out our trash before heading to Zeke's apartment.
When we get there I have Zeke open the door. Everything looks to be in place from the last time I was here. "There are a couple boxes in the closet in the bedroom if you don't mind grabbing them, Four." Zeke calls out and I walk to the bedroom.
It feels kind of weird walking into their bedroom but I have to find the boxes. I open the door to their bedroom and am shocked at what I see. Inside, are Shauna and some guy sleeping in the bed. The sheets are fully covering Shauna but the guy is only covered to his waist with no shirt.
I quietly shut the door of the bedroom again and turn around, running straight into Zeke. "Um... I couldn't… uh… find the boxes," I stumble on my words. Zeke quirks an eyebrow at me and pushes me aside. I turn to stop him but it's too late. He already has the door open and I see the red creep up his face.
"What the hell?" he screams and Shauna and the guy jump up. This is going to get ugly, and quick. "You break up with me last night and I find you in bed with another man the next morning. And if I had to guess, this douche bag is the reason we broke up!" he screams and I grab his arms to keep him from going after the guy.
"Look Zeke, I can explain."Shauna pleads and Zeke leans back on his back leg and crosses his legs, waiting. "This is Riley and yes he is one of the reasons we broke up. A couple months ago I started to feel like we were drifting apart when you would come home late and barley talk to me. Riley ended up being there and eventually I fell in love with him. I'm sorry Zeke. I never meant to hurt you." She says and drops her head.
Zeke lets out a heavy sigh and shakes his head. "You could have just told me there was someone else. All I want is for you to be happy. If you are happy with Riley here, then I'm happy." He says and manages a small smile.
I realize than that Zeke's advice actually makes sense. If you love someone but they are already happy you should just let them be that way. I want Tris to be happy, even if she isn't with me.
Tris POV
I wake up feeling very warm. I also feel a heavy weight across my side. I look behind me to see Uriah with his eyes closed and his mouth slightly parted. I smile and try to wiggle out of his grasp without waking him up but that only causes him to pull me closer.
"Uriah, let me go," I whisper in his ear and I see him try to cover up a smile. I smack his arm, "Get up you oaf. I know you're up." He groans but lets me go, rolling onto his back. I smile to myself and sit up. "You know, you're not very nice in the morning," Uriah states and I turn to him with a look of fake shock. He just laughs and rolls out of bed.
I go to grab some clothes out of my closet before walking back into my bedroom. Uriah is sitting on the bed tying his shoes. "I'm going to get us some breakfast and me some fresh clothes. Do you want anything specific?" he asks, looking up at me. "A chocolate muffin and coffee would be great." I respond and he smiles and comes over to kiss me.
Right as he is about to though, I take a step back and put a finger to his lips. He pouts, causing his bottom lip to brush my finger. "No. You just woke up and I don't want to kiss you with morning breath. Come back with new clothes, brushed teeth, and food and maybe we can come to a compromise." I say and he just shakes his head. "Fine." He says quietly before leaving.
I go through my normal morning routine and by the time I'm done, Uriah is sitting on the couch eating a muffin. I come up behind him and kiss his neck. He stretches his head back and I laugh. Coming around the couch, I grab my muffin before falling onto the couch.
"So what do you want to do today?" Uriah asks. I think for a minute. What do I want to do today? Then I remember something I've wanted to do for a while. "I want to go zip-lining." I say and a big smile appears Uriah's face.
Oh Boy
-PAGE BREAK-
Uriah and I stand on the top of the Hancock building along with Will and Christina. "So who wants to go first?" Uriah asks and I push Christina to look like she is volunteering.
She turns around and glares at me before walking toward Uriah. "Can 2 people go down at once?" she asks and he nods. She smiles and goes over to Will. She grabs his hand and pulls him toward the cable. "Top or bottom Chris?" Will asks with a smirk. She slaps him and says bottom.
Christina gets in and lies on her stomach. Will comes over and gently lies on top of her, face down. Uriah tightens the straps and makes sure the cable is secure. "On three…1…2…3!" he screams and sends the couple flying.
I can hear the screams of who I assume is Christina from all the way at the bottom. "Ready Tris?" he asks and I nod. Uriah gets in first, facing upward and I get in on top of him. "You know, I kind of like this position." Uriah says and I slap him. "Perv," I say before he reaches behind me to tighten the straps.
I use my feet to push us off the building and soon we are flying. I let my arms out by my sides and pretend I am a bird. I look down and Uriah is staring up at me. I smile at him and lean my head down so that our lips meet.
If I could freeze this moment right now I would. I have never been so happy, I am zip-lining down a 100 story building and kissing my boyfriend in the process. I don't know how life could get better right now.
-PAGE BREAK-
Uriah and I walk hand-in-hand through the Pit. When we come up to where the apartment elevators are Uriah turns to me. "Hey, I have a couple things to get done before dinner. I'll meet you there?" he asks and I nod. He smiles and kisses my cheek before going through the elevator doors and heading up to his apartment.
I decide to go sit in the chasm for a little while. I haven't had much time to think since the argument with Tobias. I step over the railing and make the way down the narrow path to my hiding spot. I don't think anyone knows about it so I am usually safe.
I take a seat and instead of dangling my legs over the edge of the rock, I pull them into me and lean against the wall.
How could Tobias say that he loves me? He never showed any interest in me. Maybe if he had in the first place I would have chosen him. I don't have feeling for Tobias. I couldn't. But maybe I can. Wait. No. I can't think this way. I am dating Uriah, I like Uriah. But do I love him?
I sigh and put my head in my hands. "What am I going to do?" I say quietly to myself. "I don't know Tris. What are you going to do?" I hear the voice above me and turn my head. Tobias is standing above me, staring down at me. "What are you doing here?" I ask coldly. I'm not in the mood to talk to him. "I could ask you the same thing." He replies before sitting down next to me.
I scoot as far away as the rock will allow. I don't want him here. I came here to be alone and think. Not to be distributed by the person who is causing me to want to be alone.
We sit there for a while in silence. The roar of the water is the only sound we hear. Every once in a while I'll flinch when the cold water splashes me but other than that, no movement or sound is made by either of us.
I start to get uncomfortable with the silence after what feels like forever and start to get up but Tobias takes me wrist gently in his hand. "Please Tris. Just hear me out." He pleads. I finally look into his eyes and he looks as if he is about to break into a million pieces. I've never seen him this vulnerable.
I sigh and sit back down. "What?" I ask probably a little too harshly. "Tris, I didn't want you to find out like that. I had a plan of how I was going to say it. But that plan went into the drain as soon as I saw Uriah kiss you. I knew that as soon as he had you I couldn't. There was no way you would choose me over him." he says and he drops his head.
Silence sets in again but is soon broken by Tobias. "Zeke said something very intelligent today," I look at him and see he is trying to suppress a smirk. "He had found Shauna with someone else today and he was not happy but when she told him that she was happy with this other person, he couldn't argue. He said that all he wanted was for her to be happy. And if she was happy with this other guy, then he was happy." He looks up at me. I try to look away but before I can he takes me chin in his hand.
"All I want for you is to be happy Tris. I love you but if you're happy with Uriah, then I am happy." He says quietly while looking directly into my eyes.
I don't know what prompted me to do what happens next but before my mind can react, my lips are on his and we're kissing. I feel him tense up and I am about to pull away but he takes my face and starts to kiss me back. We kiss until we are out of breath and we pull away, both breathing hard. He rests his forehead against mine and looks into my eyes.
He looks like he is about to say something but I don't stay to find out what it is. I get up and dash out of the chasm, muttering "I'm sorry" as I go. Right after I get over the railing I look back one time and I see him with a blank look on his face just staring out into space.
I have to pull myself away from the image because if I stay any longer, I'll go back to him.
I turn to the Pit and run.
I don't think.
Just run.
