Tris P.O.V

"When did my life get so weird" I ask out loud.


Christmas is in 3 days and I don't have all of Emily's presents, this is operation Christmas gifts.

"Come on guys let's leave while Uriah is still sleep" Four suggest. We all nod and grab our coats, wallets and run out the house and into my Silverado. We're leaving Uriah here with Emily, because she can't know what we're getting her for Christmas, and when Uriah wakes up he'll go ballistic.

Not everybody can fit in my Silverado because it's 10 people so Will, Lynn, Shauna, Christina, Marlene and I ride inside the truck while Four, Zeke, Caleb and Eric snuggle up in the trunk together. And yes I said snuggled, they look like two married couples

We are on our way to Woodfield mall, then Best buy, Toys"R"us and a Jewelry store. We get to the Mall and Christina asks "Who wants to go shopping with me" Shauna and Marlene say they have cramps and run off. Will explains that he and Caleb need to go to Barnes and Noble, and Four, Zeke and Eric say they want chicken and run into Dillard's. We look at Lynn and she says "No way" she says and turns around walking in the opposite direction of the boys. I wonder why they all ran off? Well I'll find out soon enough I guess. I turn back to Christina who is mumbling about no good shoppers.

"I guess it's just me and you then, huh?" I ask Christina she perks up and squeals jumping up and down. She starts talking a mile a minute and before I know it, I'm being dragged around the mall and forced into clothes.

What have I gotten myself into this time?

Christina finds every single deal in the mall and takes an advantage of them. When we are finally done Christina has gotten 800 dollars' worth of clothes for Emily and herself. I end up buying 890 dollars' worth of clothes for myself then more clothes for Emily. When were finally done with the shopping we go to find the boys. And let me tell you this, going shopping at the mall with Christina is a workout. I mean you have weight lifting, running, and stretching. It also gets your stamina up.

We find the boys and I just about pass out, the bags on my arms have to be at least 80 pounds on each arm. I look at Christina expecting to see her struggling just as much as I am, but no she's in her 7"in stilettos strutting like she is a model on a runway, while I am panting and dragging my bags on the ground. Four and Zeke see us and immediately start laughing. They are literally rolling on the ground red-faced from the lack of oxygen. .Pissed. They see me on the brink of dying and they are laughing? Hex Nah, "FOUR EATON GET YOUR BUT OVER HERE RIGHT NOW" I scream and both of them immediately stop laughing. Zeke takes a couple of steps back, "That's your girlfriend not mine I will not feel the wrath of Tris" he whispers but I still hear him. I smile happy I can scare to grown men. Four gulps and slowly walks toward me, everyone in the food court is looking at us. I see Zeke trying to run away "Don't even think about it Zeke, get over here" I point to the ground in front of me. Zeke's shoulders slump and he walks to me head on the ground. I'm a mom I have that effect on people.

"Yes mom" they sigh out in unison.

"You two have been very bad and I won't take it a second longer" I huff out in my best mom voice. Their heads and shoulders slump lower. "I will not let you get away with such treacherous behavior. So I must punish you. Your punishment is you have to hold all of our bags for the rest of the day, you can start with these". I hand Four all of my bags and he drops to the floor because he wasn't expecting them to be that heavy. I look at Christina and nod, she nods back and smiles "Here you go Zeke, take care of my babies okay" she slides Zeke's arms next to hers then removes her arms quick as lighting. His eyes bulge out of his head "Who are you, superman in disguise" he struggles out. Christina laughs "no silly, I'm Super fashionista, and my kryptonite is…not shopping" she says flipping her hair back laughing.

"Come on boys" we say in unison.

We go and look for Caleb and Will at Barnes and nobles, and I see Will immediately looking in the teen section. I look around for Caleb while the others look around for books that they aren't even going to read. It's just something about going into a book store and looking and smelling all that books makes you want to get books. I find Caleb at the Cash register paying for books. I go up to him "Hey Caleb where are all your books" he just points to the ground while sighing a check. My eyes bulge out of my eye sockets. Caleb has 5 jumbo bags full of books. I mean it looks like he's buying stuff for a whole town instead of one person. "Caleb really, are you actually going to read these books. I mean you have enough for a city" he turns and looks at me "I had to they were having a sale and I got every single series they had. Hunger games, divergent, the mortal instruments, 50 shades of grey-

I cut him off "you don't have to get all excited they are just books and for one I have no idea who those people are and secondly you're hurting my brain it can only take so much," I say rubbing my temple.

I look up at Caleb and he looks appalled " How dare you" he shrieks

"Books...Just books, no they are living things that can kill you and reincarnate you in 5 minutes. And yes I am going to read each and every single one of these books because these books are what I breath without them I would die" he says it all poetically "Now if you would excuse me I have some fanboying to do" he says picking up all of those Santa sacks with ease and walking away , well I would say strutting away

I look around and see just about every girl and a couple of guys staring after him with hearts in their eyes. I'm attempted to call them crazy but I'll have to read one of the books before I do that. So I buy The fault in our stars, it was the first book I saw and plus it was blue, you can never go wrong with a blue book.

I go back to everyone else sitting down like perfect little angels, they must have done something, but at the moment I don't really care.

We go and hunt down Shauna ,Lynn and Marlene. We find them by calling each girl over and over until we hear their phones. When we finally hear their phones we go inside a mattress store, and find them all sleep on a mattress in a tangled mess. A worker was poking them with a pen trying to get them to wake up but he was being to nice about it. So I went over to him and politely pushed him out-of-the-way. "GET UP" I yelled to the top of my lungs, simultaneously they all popped up, and flung drool on my face.

"Ewwwwww"

"oops"


We manage to get to all the stores and make it home by 11:00pm next time, I am going alone I ended up spending like 2,000 dollars in one day, and 50% of that was on clothes. I AM GIVING YOU A WARNING DO NOT GO WITHIN A 30 MILE RADIUS OF A MALL WITH CHRISTINA, you will be sorry later if you don't take my advice.

"When we park the car and get out, I expected it to be screaming and running around breaking things. But there was non of that the house was too quiet and the lights weren't on. What's going on. I look at everybody and we look like ninjas or something. We all have on mostly black with our hair blowing in our faces. They are all in some type of fighting stance, we walk up to my house and I reach to unlock the door, but someone opens it for me.

"We've been expecting you"


Authors Note: Dun dun dunnnn! I am not sure how to spell that effect but I hope ur getting what I mean. And I am so sorry for taking so long to update. And I know it's not the best but I just needed another calm before this long and treacherous storm that is yet to come. The only reason I got my hands on the keyboard was because 2 guest reviewed and asked for another chapter, I hate to disappoint so here you go! I hope you liked, please follow and review so I know you still want me to write this story. I stopped on my other one because no one was reviewing so I didn't think you cared. Please show some LOVE! ^_^
