URIAH'S POV
I followed Marlene. I want to hear her say the truth and stop cowering out.
"Marlene." I grab her hand.
"Just tell me the truth." She looks at me with a cold stare.
"Fine, I tripped her okay I should have done it harder." She laughs bitterly. I'm shocked. She didn't feel any remorse this isn't the Marlene I know.
"Marlene what's gotten into you." She laughs.
"Don't try to hide it the way you look at her come on now it's obvious you like Christina."
"So this is why you hurt her to get revenge and I don't like her I like you." I was lying I don't like her like I did when I was younger.
"Your lying and you know it and now Christina is gonna get it." I don't want Christina to get hurt.
"Wow Marlene you don't have to do this I love you." I'm doing everything I can to save Christina I can't let her get hurt.
"Yay right."
"Maybe we do need a break," I mumble.
"See you were lying to me huh you think you're so smooth huh you better watch your back and tell Christina the same." She walks off.
This is gonna get ugly.
NEXT DAY
CHRISTINA'S POV
The day is going by slow. My ankle is throbbing and Mr. Walter gave me a Saturday detention for "talking during class." That guy is out to get me. Anyways Tris and I meet up for lunch at this café across from school called the Pit. It's a nice place. I see Tris and sit with her.
"So did you hear Marlene and Uriah broke up." Wow, I'm shocked wonder why they been together forever. I should be happy right. Well, I am but I feel like me liking Uriah is just a phase.
"Wonder why?" Is all I can say. She shrugs.
"He wouldn't tell me all he did was walk away, ignore me, or tell me to drop it." He must be upset about it.
"That's not like him it must have been bad," I say while slurping on my milkshake. She nods.
"The worse part is we have to see her after school but its gonna be worse than it usually is." She's right we will probably run 20 laps, which is 5 miles.
"Hey, how's the ankle, from 1 out of 10."
"8," I say. Then we hear the school bell ring. We hurry and run to school. Cheerleading practice is going to be interesting.
AFTER SCHOOL
Tris and I were coming out the locker room about to go into practice then I see Marlene standing there. WTF.
"Um yes," Tris says. She walks up closer pushing Tris out her way and then she is right in my face.
"You think you're so slick don't you." She pushes me. Tris is giving her a deadly glare.
"What now," I say.
"Uriah you thought you could get him." Now, this is co fusing me. The next thing I feel is her fist connect to my jaw and I stumble back. I look at her. She is smirking. The next thing is a blur. Me and her start punching and hitting. Tris trying to hold me back, then I feel someone pull me back and throws me over their shoulder.
"Bitch," Marlene says spitting out blood. Four is holding Tris back. She looks pissed, Four is whispering something in her ear. Probably telling her to calm down. Uriah tells me to stop squirming. I forgot I was still trying to reach her. I stop.
"What's going on here."It's Ms. Matthews the principal.
