Chapter 42
Last time: I am my enemy.
Present:
For people that forgot, Christina POV:
I wake up to a sound that sounds like someone knocking on the door. I walk downstairs to see if there's someone at the door. No ones there. Maybe it was a prank.
I go back up to my room only to hear more knocks. What time is it anyways? I look at my alarm clock. It's 6:00 am! WHO IS DEPRIVING ME OF MY SLEEP?! I hear another knock and follow the sound to my window. I open it and I can make out a figure standing on the ground.
"Yes?" I ask.
"Christina?" No no no no no no no. No. Not Will.
"Why are you here at 6 o'clock in the morning, Will?" I ask.
"Because Christina I know this doesn't seem true but I really like you." He says. My jaw drops. What is he playing at? First he kisses that strawberry blonde and now he's standing outside my window say he likes me?! What is his deal?!
"Why don't you just go and kiss that strawberry blonde I saw you at the park with?" I ask fuming.
"I don't like her, we were just trying to tell if you liked me back by seeing if you would get jealous or not." He says. Okay, powers activate. He's not lying. This is the truth. I decide I'll play with him a little longer for putting me in pain like that.
"Is that so?" I ask.
Instead of answering me Will pulls out a guitar. He starts playing a song that I feel like I haven't heard in a long time. And then he sings:
We were both young when I first saw you.
I close my eyes and the flashback starts:
I'm standing there on a balcony in summer air.
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns.
See you make your way through the crowd
And say, "Hello,"
Little did I know...
That I was Romeo, I was throwing pebbles,
And your daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
And you were crying on the staircase
Begging me, "Please don't go"
And you said...
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.
I'll be waiting; all that's left to do is run.
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess,
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes."
So you snuck out to the garden to see you.
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close our eyes... escape this town for a little while.
Oh, oh.
'Cause I was Romeo – you were a scarlet letter,
And your daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet."
But you were everything to me,
You were begging me, "Please don't go."
And you said...
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.
I'll be waiting; all that's left to do is run.
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess.
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes."
Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel.
This love is difficult but it's real.
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess.
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes."
Oh, oh.
You got tired of waiting
Wondering if I were ever coming around.
Your faith in me was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town.
And you said...
"Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone.
I keep waiting for you but you never come.
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think."
I knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said...
"Marry me, Juliet, you'll never have to be alone.
I love you, and that's all I really know.
I talked to your dad – go pick out a white dress
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes."
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
'Cause we were both young when I first saw you.
I don't know how to respond so I just stare at him.
"What? Was it too cheesy?" He asks. I laugh a little.
"No, it was perfect. Who's idea was this? No offense Will but I can tell you're a hopeless romantic." I say.
"Remember the strawberry blonde? She came up with this." He says.
"I really owe her an apology then." I say grinning. Will smiles.
"You should really go home and change." I shout to Will.
"I don't have to, I'm already dressed and I have all my stuff." He says.
"Well, then I'll put some clothes on and join you down there." I say.
"Okay."
I put on one of my cutest outfits. This should do, right? I hope so.
I go downstairs.
"Wow, Christina! Why are you up so early? It's only 7 o'clock!" My mom exclaims. Oops, I took 45 minutes to get ready. Hopefully Will won't be too mad.
"Got to go, Mom! I'll tell you later!" I say and run outside. I see Will sitting on the curb. I run up to him and hug him.
"Will!" I shout.
"Chrissy!" He shouts back. We laugh.
"How long have you liked me?" I ask.
"I think since the first time I saw you." He says.
"Same." I say. We just stare into each other's eyes.
This moment is so perfect.
-Time Skip-
Tris POV:
It's been a month.
I am going crazy.
All Christina does is kiss and cuddle Will. Even when Will isn't with her they still are on the phone. And when Will can't call her at the moment Christina talks about how perfect of a boyfriend Will is. Ugh.
Tyler and I are a "thing" now. At least, I think we are. The second date we had went much better than the first. I really like Tyler, he's so sweet.
Four has also got a girlfriend. She's named Mari and is in the year above me. She's really nice, I've met her. I think Fours over me.
The strange thing is; I feel really mad at Mari for no explainable reason. Why would I be mad at her? It's not like she's tried to murder me. Or steal my boyfriend. Or hurt Four. I consider Four and I friends enough to be mad if one of our ex's is mean.
"Tris! Are you and Tyler going to the Halloween dance together?" Christina asks.
"I think so..." I say unsure. Are we going to the dance. I pull out my phone and text him. He responds saying: yes, we are. I hate how lately we've been drifting apart. We never really talk in person anymore.
"Tris, I think you and Tyler are through." Christina says, startling me.
"What? Why?" I ask.
"You just said that you guys are drifting apart. That is the sign of a failed relationship." Says Christina.
Is Christina right?
Alright, extra long chapter. I also released Cupids Troubles today so go and check that out! I'm just so productive today, aren't I?
My friend was talking about how she was writing a fanfiction (none of my friends or family members know I write fanfictions) and I was like "Can you send me the link?" And then she said "It doesn't have a link. I'm writing it on word." and at that point I was just like why are you writing a fanfiction if you're not going to upload it? Some people.
