Tris POV
"We can finish this later." I tell Four in my most seductive voice.
He smirks, and slides his board shorts back on, and I put my bandeau bikini back on. I was having such a good time, that I forgot about Zeke and Lauren. "Damn Four what are we gonna do about Zeke and Lauren? What are we gonna say?" I panick.
"Uh, do you..um.. like me?" I ask.
"Yes." She responds. I feel joy rush inside me.
"I'm gonna break up with Lauren, to be honest, I only dated her to make you jealous." I confess.
"Oh, sorry I didn't notice." She replies. My heart sinks but I still feel happy because I know she likes me.
"I don't know how to let Zeke down easy." She says.
We unlock the door and head outside to the circle. "Where did everyone go?" Tris asks Uriah.
"They just wondered off somewhere around the beach." Uriah replies, and walks off in the opposite direction.
"I'm gonna look for Lauren." I say.
"Ok, I'll look for Zeke." She responds. And we walk in different directions.
Tris POV
I decided to go on a walk to clear my mind and organize things, while finding Zeke. I walk to the far west side of the beach, where I see a boy leaning on a girl against the wall. I see them having a hard core make out session. It reminds me a lot of Zeke and I. As I walk closer, I see that the girl has blond hair and blue eyes. She's wearing a pink halter bikini, just like Shauna's.…Wait….., that is Shauna. The boy has brown hair, and is wearing checkered board shorts like Zeke's. It's clear now, Zeke and Shauna making out. I feel anger rush through me.
"Zeke?" I ask.
The boy turns around and stares wide eyed in shock. It's Zeke, his brown hair and dark brown eyes. Tears stream down my face. He runs up to me, "Tris!" he yells. I run away from him. "Please I can explain!" he shouts from behind. I run faster, I need Four. I guess I don't need to break up with Zeke anymore. How could I not see that Shauna and Zeke liked each other.
As I get near where we settled, I see Lauren on top of a guy. Lauren and Four, I think. It can't be, Four said he was going to break up with her. I run closer, it's Four. My heart deflates, my heart is broken. I cry even harder, loud enough to be heard from a far distance. Lauren looks up, "Tris, what's wrong?" she asks, getting off Four. Four turns and sees me. "Lauren stay here." He says, and Lauren nods. I run the other way, hoping to loose him from behind, but there's no point, he's too fast. I give in, and he reaches me. "Tris, why are you crying?" he asks.
"Well, I was looking for Zeke, and I saw him having a hard core make out session with Shauna, then I run back here and see Lauren kissing you, so I guess it's a great day isn't it Four?" I cry out. He pulls me into a bear hug.
"Tris, I'm sorry. I didn't know Zeke liked Shauna, I didn't expect it. If I knew, I would've told you. Lauren pushed me down and she kinda like through her self at me and started kissing me." he explains.
He wipes my tears and plants a kiss on my forehead.
"Did you break up with her yet?" I ask. He rubs the back of his neck.
"No, not exactly. It didn't go as planned." He replies.
"I want to go home." I say.
"I know, I'm sorry Tris." He says.
We walk back to the rest of the gang. I see Zeke, and he tries to approach me, but Four stops him. "Don't try!" Four says.
"Tris please!" Zeke yells. The whole gang is now staring. Perfect, just what I needed.
"Zeke, we're done for good." I spit at him.
"What do you mean?" he responds.
"What I mean is you cheated on me with her," I say gesturing to Shauna. She mumbles a sorry, and I smile forgivingly. This isn't Shauna's problem, it's Zeke's.
Zeke looks hurt, but he deserves it.
"Get over it Zeke." I say.
Christina breaks the silence "Come on guys, let's load the truck." Thank god, people stopped looking at our scene. I mouth a thank you to Christina and she smiles. She turns on her phone to do something. My phone vibrates, and I check to see that Christina texted me.
Christina: What happened? We need to talk.
Tris: I need some time. Talk about it later k?
Christina: K. Just remember that Will and I will always be here for you.
Tris: Thanks!
I put my phone away, and pack my stuff. Four runs towards me. "Tris I told her." He says, meaning that he broke up with Lauren.
"How did she take it?" I ask.
"Well surprisingly!" he responds.
He helps carry my stuff into the truck and we sit next to each other. Lauren surprisingly sits beside me.
"Hey Tris, I'm sorry, I didn't know." She says. I feel bad. I don't know what to say.
"No, don't be sorry. I didn't want it to affect our friendship." I say.
"Me too!" she says, giving me a hug.
I smile and she smiles back.
"Girls, wanna go to the mall tomorrow?" I ask.
A chorus of "Yes" rise in the car.
"Okay then, meet me at my house at 10:30 am tomorrow." I say.
We go to the Olive Garden for dinner. I sit in between Four and Shauna, with Lauren in front of me.
"Hey Shauna, Sorry about today. I don't want things to ruin our relationship." I say.
"I'm sorry Tris, it was my fault. We'll always be Best Friends Forever!" she says.
She hugs me and I hug back. Everyone orders there food, and I order a caesar salad, with garlic bread.
After we pay for our food, we go back to Zeke's house to retrieve our cars. Lauren drives me to my house. "Thanks so much Lauren, see ya tomorrow!" I say, getting out of the car.
I walk through the front door, where I am greeted by my mom and brother. "Hey!" I say.
"How was your day sweetie?"
"Great!" I lie, and run up the stairs.
I take a quick shower and change into my pajamas. I slip into bed and check my phone. I have one unread message from Zeke. Ugh what does he want? Ex boyfriends can be a handful! I decide to read it slowly.
