So sorry I haven't updated in a while. I've been going on 'family days out' so I didn't have time. I've finally had the time to write one, though, so here you go. Oh, and thanks for all the reviews! They are all so nice and make me want to write more, even if I'm not in the mood. You guys really are the best!

Four's POV

It's been a few week since we spoke, three to be exact. I wasn't entirely sure before, but now I know she's avoiding me. Whenever we're about to cross in a corridor, she stops and heads in the other direction and disappears into the crowd.

I know I should talk to her, but I'm not sure what to say. I don't want to start a conversation about what happened with Molly and find out afterwards she isn't avoiding me for that.

She said she doesn't care about me, but she must do if she's going out of her way just to avoid me. The only logical explanation for her to avoid me is if she liked me and she thought that Molly and I were dating. But she wouldn't, would she?

I'm supposed to be in the bathroom right now- at least, that's what my teacher thinks- but I've given up on pretending to search for the toilets, so I'm just wandering around aimlessly.

My heart leaps when I see a familiar blonde girl leaning against her locker with her head buried in a book.

Tris

I must have said her name out loud because she turns to look at me, her look of concentration slowly morphing into a glare.

I step closer to her and see large bruise-like shadows underneath her eyes, which she's struggling to keep open.

"What do you want?" she spits out, and I act like her anger isn't hurting me in any way.

I raise my hands in mock surrender and take another step closer.

"I haven't seen you in a while. I just want to talk"

She mutters something under her breath, which I can't hear, so I just pretend she didn't say anything.

"Why are you even here?" she asks me, slamming her book shut.

"I was just taking a stroll. I could ask you the same question"

She sighs, pressing the book to her chest. "I was revising"

"Why don't you do that in class?"

She scowls at me, probably deciding whether to tell me or not. "Too loud. Why don't you stop being so nosy?"

"Wow that's rude"

"I'm not in the mood, Four"

"Well, why are you so angry, then?"

This gets her angry. She throws her book down on the ground, creating a loud bang, and steps closer to me, looking like she's ready to kill.

"Maybe I'm angry because I've been staying up till all hours trying the finish our project which is due in tomorrow, so I've had hardly any sleep"

I hang my head in shame. I completely forgot about the project so I made no effort to ask her about it. I feel really guilty knowing she's had to do the work all by herself.

"I'm so sorry, Tris. I completely forgot"

She shrugs, and for some reason, this really gets to me. Anger overtakes me and I can feel my blood boiling.

"You know, you could've reminded me about it, instead of avoiding me all the time"

"You could've made the effort to find me"

"How, Tris? How?" I'm shouting now, but I don't care how loud I am "I can never find you because you're always running away every time you see me. You're blaming me when it's you"

She looks down, hiding her face from me. All my anger disappears and I find myself wanting to hug her. Instead, I pick her book up off the floor and hand it to her. She looks at it for a few seconds before grabbing it.

"I'm sorry" she says, quietly "I shouldn't have blamed you when this situation is my entire fault"

I shake my head and lean down so our eyes are level "Don't blame yourself. I'm sorry too; I shouldn't have taken my anger out on you"

She nods and gives me one of her tiny smiles. She sticks out her hand for me to shake and says "Friends?"

I grin at her and grab her hand, pulling her into my chest. I wrap my arms around her, giving her a big bear hug. I wait until she loosens up and hugs me back before saying "Definitely"

I rest my chin on her head and ask her the question that's on my mind "Hey, why were you avoiding me anyway?"

She stiffens and I pull back to look at her face. She looks embarrassed; her cheeks are tinged with pink and she won't look me in the eye.

As soon as she opens her mouth to say something, the bell rings, signalling the end of class. She doesn't move though and I grip her hand. "Tris, you know you can tell me anything"

She nods, but looks uncomfortable.

"Tris" someone calls and she quickly lets go of my hand and rakes it through her hair. "Hey Chris" she replies, her eyes flitting to mine every few seconds.

Christina comes over and stands next to us, placing her hands on her hips "So, are you two friends yet?"

"Yes" I say grinning, and I throw my arm around Tris's neck. She shoves it off and elbows me in the ribs, and I can't help but laugh, feeling happier than I have done in weeks.

Tris's POV

Wow, Christina has good timing. I seriously did not want to tell Four I was avoiding him because I was jealous. Chris told me the next day that he and Molly weren't actually going out, but I had kind of been horrible to him, so I couldn't act as if nothing happened.

Plus, I didn't want to have to watch all the girls drool over him while I was there. It would make it harder to hide my feelings for him.

The three of us walk out to our cars and Christina's rambling on while Four and I are zoned out, too bored to listen.

But, when she mentions the trip, I can't help but listen.

"Oh yeah, two more days until we go" I say and Christina nods excitedly.

"Wait, two more days?" Four asks

"Yes Four, where have you been?" Christina says, rolling her eyes at me.

"Sorry, it's just come so fast"

"Have you packed?" I ask him.

"Yeah, I did it ages ago"

"See, Tris" Christina says, nudging me "I think you're the only one who hasn't"

"Yeah, whatever. I'll just do it tomorrow after school"

We stop off at my car and we stand there for a minute talking.

"Well, don't blame anyone if you forget something because you know it's your own fault"

I roll my eyes and get in the car, slamming the door behind me. Christina taps on the window and I open it for her.

"I'll come over tomorrow and help you pack, at least I'll know then that you're bringing decent clothes"

"Okay. See you tomorrow" I pause and lean my head further out the window "Bye, Four"

He smiles at me and walks over to his car which is only a few spaces away. I nudge Christina's fingers off my window and turn the engine on. "See ya" she says, and walks off.

I start driving and see that Four is behind me. I'm so glad we're friends again. But that's just it, I want to be more than friends, and I have done for a while. I need to know if he feels the same.

I think it's time for Christina to do some detective work for me.
