(Author's Note: Next chapter will be comedy, OK! I promise! :D)
Then I hear the expected answer. I can't answer that right now. He drops out, and I win the game. But I would've preferred a yes. Oh, well. I shouldn't stress it. Will already burst off. Looks like he'll be arguing with me today. My heart sinks as I realize I have no idea what my status is on Facebook. NOOO! Everyone puts their clothes on and I can tell Cole and I are going to be getting some questions about this ending next Truth or Dare. Cole seems to stay next to me, as he knows Will will be confronting me soon. I wonder what type of fight they'll have. Erudite (debation), Amity (talk it over), Candor (be honest about what they think), or Dauntless (you can figure it out). There is no Abnegation. It would be selfless to fight. It would show self defense. At least that's what Tris told me. I stay glued to Cole as well, because of course I see Will waiting for us in the hallway. Will immediately throws a punch, but Cole ducks and uppercuts his belly.
"I want to talk, Will."
"You…" He charges Cole, but he simply steps aside, pushing me back along with him, since Will's next target would've been me. Will trips while he's charging and face plants.
"Dude, you're unorganized. You might as well just flail your arms around." Will gets up and reveals a bloody nose.
"Fine, I'll play it your way. I don't like you intruding on my girl."
"I'm not your girl, William." I defend, knowing he hates when people call him that.
"Will, please explain how I 'intruded on your girl'?" Yep. It's an Erudite fight. I love these.
"Well, Cole, you seem to have made her fall in love with you."
"It's not my fault I'm dashing."
"Let's get this straight. Christina was my girlfriend. She then started noticing you and got googly eyed. Eventually, she started getting testy and wanted to experiment with you. At one point, she finally got her chance and kissed you. And you went along with it."
"Not my fault I'm competitive in Truth or Dare. I didn't want to, Will. I have my own girlfriend."
"Really? Let's see how that status changes once I tell her about the game today." Cole's eyes turn into plates.
"Will, you wouldn't… I had no intention on –"
"CAN it, Cole! You took her away from me!"
"You shouldn't have messed with her!"
"How do you know about that?" He almost whispers.
"A little birdy told me. Perv."
"I am NOT!"
"You are too. You're no better than Peter." Cole spits the word at him. Will is about to burst, but he calms himself down.
"Listen, Cole, I just want my girlfriend back. We have a deal?"
"OK, fine. Here." Cole takes a step back as Will takes a step forward and holds my hand. "But keep this in mind. You won't have a girlfriend much longer if you refer to them as items. You don't 'take' a girl." He turns around and leaves. He knows that I'll break up with him soon.
"Will… you won't really tell Lynn, will you?" I whisper to him.
"I don't know. We'll see how he cooperates."
"You're not the Will I loved."
"What do you mean?"
"The Will I loved was carefree and sweet. You never even considered blackmail. Now look at you. I am not an item, Will! Cole didn't take me! You never had me! I'M MY OWN PERSON! I HAVE NO OWNERSHIP!" I scream at him. I've had it! "You want me to be your girlfriend? Show some RESPECT!" I rush ahead of him and go to my room. Will sure screwed up this time. He's close to tears, but he brushes it off and returns to his room, and I'm pretty sure he ran in on Peter watching porn, since I hear a laptop closing and some voices screaming "perv" and "it's not what it looks like". I open my laptop and Skype Cole. We don't video call, we just chat on the chat room.
Cole, I'm sorry.
For?
I'm sorry for causing all this drama. But I pretty much have everything cleared up. If Will doesn't get his act together, we're over. He probably won't tell Lynn, so you're good. I'm sorry for loving you. After what seems like a long time, he responds.
"If you find happiness, people may be Jealous.
Be happy anyways." – Mother Theresa
Don't be sorry for being in love.
Thanks Cole. A lot. I log off of Skype and see Tris' looking over my shoulder with a start.
"TRIS!" She laughs and backs off.
"In my defense, I only stared at your profile picture. You should totally update that."
"What's wrong with it?"
"Everything." I laugh.
"You sound just like me."
"That was the plan. But seriously, I didn't read the conversation. "
"OK, good. You can leave now."
"And go where?"
"You're me, so go shopping or something. I don't care."
"This reminds me of 'Freaky Friday'. Kay, bye!" She frolics away, badly mimicking me as I roll my eyes and go to . I need something do distract me from all this.
