Tris POV:
"So...do you have any plans for today?" I ask Tobias, as we are coming out of the Pit from breakfast.
'Actually, yes. Zeke, Shauna, Marlene, Lynn, Uriah, Will, Christina, and all of your friends and us are going to meet up at 11 to play truth or dare." I groan.
"What?"
"I just don't feel like doing anything today. And I really don't like Zeke. And Uriah is gonna be there?"
"Wait, no, scratch that. He's still in the infirmary. But, come on. It'll be fun. Pwease?"
I giggle and nod my head.
"Now, about your apartment," he starts. I nod again and we go to get bed sheets and things for my apartment.
"Well, it's 10:56. What do you say we go?" I nod and set down the soaps and shampoos that I have been arranging in my bathroom from the Pit.
"Where is it anyways?"
"Shauna's apartment." I nod and follow him to the place of play.
We get there and Zeke is passed out. Tobias lightly punches his shoulder.
"Wh-what'd I miss?!" he blurts out. We all laugh and he frowns, "What's so funny?" he asks as he crosses his arms.
Shauna ignores him and asks who wants to go first. As if on cue, Christina bursts through the door, dragging Will behind her. He looks tired. I zone out and see who all is here. Like Tobias said, Marlene, Shauna, Lynn, Zeke, and now Will and Christina are here.
"Sorry if we're late. I mean I had to move all of my clothes out of the dorms to my apartment, which we will paint tomorrow, Will," she looks at him, then continues, "Anyways, can I start?" We all shrug and she takes it as a yes. She looks around the room, and settles her eyes on Tobias, smiling evilly, "Alrighty, Four. Truth or dare?"
"Dare."
"I dare you to tell us your real name."
"And if I don't want to do it?"
"You have to take off a piece of clothing, just not a shoe or sock. So, what'll it be?"
Tobias doesn't hesitate to take off his shirt, showing off his toned and perfect muscles. Marlene blushes and I glare at her. She presses her lips together and looks away, mumbling something about Uriah being her boy.
Tobias looks around the room and finds Lynn. Even before he asks the question, her face lights up, "Dare!" she shouts.
Tobias looks around the room again and whispers something in Shauna's ear. She smiles and looks at Shauna. Then she walks over to Zeke and kisses him on the mouth. Zeke looks surprised and Shauna turns beet red.
"I knew you two had a thing for each other!" Lynn shouts at both of them.
Shauna is enraged, "No we don't! I was just trying to protect you from a dickhead like him!"
"Hey!" shouts Zeke. He looks mad, but not as mad as Shauna.
"Well, then. If you don't mind, truth or dare?"
"Dare. I am Dauntless, aren't I?"
"Okay, big sister. If you say so. I dare you to play seven minutes in heaven with Zeke." Shauna and Zeke smile at this and go into Shauna's room, shutting the door quickly.
Everyone's' mouths fall open and mine does too.
"Well it's obvious, isn't it?" Lynn says after a few minutes. We nod. Tobias sets me down on his lap and kisses me.
"Hey, you two! It's Shauna and Zeke's turn, not yours!" Christina says. We sigh and wait.
"Well, it's time!" announces Lynn. She knocks on the door. Shauna whines and asks for five more minutes. "That's the same voice that she used to use in the morning when we were little when she didn't want to get up. Hold on a minute. Shauna! Get out! I'll kiss Zeke on the mouth again if you don't!" Lynn says.
Shauna jolts up and raced out of the bedroom, pulling Zeke. His shirt is unbuttoned and her ponytail is now very sloppy.
We get back to playing the game. That is, until Lauren knocks on the door.
"Hey, Shauna? Do you know where Tris is? Her brother is here and-" says Lauren, her voice muffled by the door.
I get up to answer it, "Lauren, did you mention my brother?"
"Yeah, he's from Erudite and mentioned an initiate named Beatrice. Is that your real name?"
"What do you think Tris stands for. New faction, new name."
"Anyways, Tris, he says that he's an ambassador to other factions, from Erudite."
"Yup, that certainly sounds like Caleb."
"Okay, then I guess I'll bring him to you," then she leaves.
I sigh.
"What was that all about?" asks Tobias.
"Yeah. What was it all about?" inquires Marlene.
"Well, apparently my brother is in the compound."
"How is that allowed? Is it even?" asks Tobias.
"Jeanine Matthews probably made him come to get our cake recipe. But, he said he's a ambassador to other factions and so he wants to see me."
Zeke buts in " Isn't your brother the smart-ass in Erudite that you were telling us about at dinner that one day?"
I nod. Boy, oh boy. Life in Dauntless certainly is anything but normal.
