He saved me. In the weirdest way possible but he did save me. I don't know how I feel. The longing is the most frustrating part about this. I haven't spoken to anyone except Shauna and Zeke. It is currently Saturday night and were going to have a barbecue. It was currently 4:30 in the afternoon so it was still light outside.
Our plans to have it yesterday was ruined by Robert and his friends. Shauna told me that they were friends with Eric and Edward, two people that I've heard about but never seen. They must be bad every time they been mentioned everyone gets agitated and annoyed.
I haven't mentioned them I've only been told about them. But I really don't want to see them if that's what they're are like. I was sitting on my bed on my laptop when I started to hear the engines coming down the almost silent street. I get up walking over towards my window I pull back the curtain.
I watch as several cars pull up in front of the house. I close the curtain and I hear Shauna yell out to me that everyone was here. I go out into the hall way and down the stairs. I see everyone starting to crowd into the lounge room. Shauna and Zeke are greeting everyone as they walked inside.
Uriah is the first to see me midway down the stairs and runs to tackle he in an awkward stair hug. I laugh as he does so. "Tris!" he laughs "Are you okay, I was so worried." he says then he lets go of me . Everyone is now staring at us. "Yeah." I say happily, well as happily as I can.
Cara glares at me hugging Four tightly as he starts talking to Zeke. Uriah and I walk down the stairs and we initiate the walk out side into the back yard. Our dining table already set up from earlier today when I helped Zeke set it.
The esky cooler at the end of the left side of the table has already been filled with ice and already has a few bottles of beer inside that are ours. Four walks over with 2 six pack and undoes them and sticks them into the ice.
I sit down next to Christina who looks overly happy. Cara sits opposite me and smiles at me darkly. Shauna sits beside me and we start talking. I try to ignore Cara's excessive glaring and pouting. I continue to talk while the boys cook at the barbecue laughing as Zeke actually cooks.
Once they have finished Four takes the food to the table then takes a seat opposite Shauna and next to Zeke at the head of the table. Uriah sits at the other head of the table next to Shauna. We eat casually and chat amongst ourselves.
Cara's constant toughing towards Four doesn't go unnoticed among the rest of the group and at one point Four glides out of her grip practically pushing her out of his way. That earns a giggle from her next to me and I laugh quietly when Uriah asks Will if she would rather pee on him to assert her dominance.
I have eaten far to much and I'm ready to sleep. I smile satisfied with my feast on the gorgeous food Shauna had prepared. I sit back in my chair trying to not look at Cara or Four as they sit directly in font of me Cara still trying to cling to Four but he doesn't seem interested.
"Tris you finished?" Zeke asks me after talking with Four. "Yeah why?" I ask. "Lets go for a drive." Zeke says after a while standing up from his chair. "Four you coming?" He nods standing up and slipping out of Cara's deadly grasp. "I'm coming." she says urgently. Four shakes his head. "No it's okay we'll be back soon." he reassures her. She frowns but accepts it as everyone is looking towards her. I stand and follow them to the front of the house.
"Go get you keys. You're driving." Zeke says as we enter the front entrance of the house. "Why?" I ask confused and they both smirk at me simultaneously. "Just do it Tris." Four says cheerfully. I don't argue with them and soon were heading down the street.
I pull the car outside of work. It's currently closed. I turn off the 350's engine and turn to face them. Zeke sits beside me, a wicked grin on his face. He opens the cars door and climbs out before I can ask why we're even here. I get out of the car and Four follows suit.
"What are we doing here?" I ask them both perplexed my eyebrows lift in confusion. Zeke looks towards me then to the gate as he walks in front of the large lock on the gate. Unlocking it he opens the gate and walks inside. Four follows him moments later looking back at my confused face and smiles encouragingly. "Come on Tris. We need to talk."
I follow them hesitantly and soon we pass the main building. We walk further into the yard and towards the back where I know that the garage is. Sure enough we stop in front of one of the large roller doors and Four this time goes to open it.
He does it with ease lifting the door above his head gracefully. He steps inside and we both soon follow him. Zeke and Four go to lean on two of the stationed cars in the hoist bays. I stand there awkwardly. "So." I say trying to get them to start talking.
"How did you find Friday." Four asks and Zeke looks at me expectantly. "I thought it was different." I tell them honestly. I really didn't expect any of that to happen. "Humm." Four hums standing an walking towards one of the closed garage doors. "Good different?" he asks more like a question. "Yeah I was alright." I say shrugging.
"Tris the reason we race isn't just because we enjoy it. We help Max out as well." Zeke says and my mouth drops. "Why are you blaming your lead foot on Max. What does he have to do with it?" I ask them sharply.
"When we race we get the money for winning. We give some to Max for letting us use the garage whenever we want hand he gives us expensive broken cars like the 350 we gave you. Four and I repair them here in our spare time and we race on weekends." Four says from behind me.
"It was the deal we made with Max after his business hit a slump. Four and I agreed to help him. He was a friend of mums and he told her about his business so we offered to help but this was years ago and the business seemed to just thrive after a while." Zeke explains.
"So why don't you stop racing you could get hurt." I say concerned they shrug. "I could say the same about a lot of things Tris but it allows us to have that little bit extra you know." Zeke says reassuringly. "Plus we didn't tell you the best part." he smiles. "Shauna use to race." he says a shit eating grin on his face and I laugh loudly in disbelief.
"No way. She would never do something like that." he shakes his head. "You're right she tried it but wasn't into it." I don't know what to say. "Why did you tell me this?" I says hotly getting mad that they put Shauna in danger. I cross my arms over my chest and Zeke frowns.
"Tris We're only telling you so you can race with us." Zeke says concerned. Four stands slightly behind him leaning on the garage door watching us. "Wait you want me to join you?" I ask them in disbelief...
