Tris The Lost Criminal

Chapter 27: Ending 2

Zeke POV

After Uriah and I spent about an hour cleaning for up Four, we just sat around. Honestly there was really nothing to do.

"What are you thinking?" Uriah asks from across the table we're seated at. "Nothing." I pause looking down. "Shauna needed to tell me something and I just ignored her." I explain.

He hums in response. "You should call her." He moves and stands up. "It looked like it was pretty important." He grabs the spare room key and slips it into his back pocket.

"I'm going to get food and coffee for big guy when he gets up so I'll see you in fifteen." He smiles before walking out the door.

I got to thinking about how Tris acted. It wasn't like her not the last couple of days anyway. I needed to understand why. Four needs to know why.

Standing I grab my phone out of my back pocket and click open the picture of us. Sliding it open I click on her contact and let it ring.

Listening to the dialling tone I need to keep reminding myself why I'm doing this exactly.

I mean I do want Shauna to explain herself but I also what this mess with Four to stop. His never really been the one to get to mess up in the whole girlfriend thing.

"Zeke I'm so happy you called." Shauna says from the other end of the line. When the phone stops ringing. "Hey, Shauna we need to talk about what happened." I say in the calmest voice I had considering I was still hurt she never told me this before.

"Okay, where" she questions. "Remember when we first met that hotel room...27." I tell her quickly saying my goodbyes and hanging up the phone.

I run a hand through my short hair and look over to Four's direction. It doesn't seem like his going to be up anytime soon so i sit back and wait for Uriah's return.

20 minutes later the unlocking of the door echoes through the silent hotel room. Uriah emerges with three take away coffees and a large brown paper bag in his hands.

"Aw come on! Is he seriously still asleep." I follow his eye line to the bed where Four is asleep. I nod slightly grabbing my coffee and taking a sip.

Not really thinking I spoke. "I called Shauna." This momentarily catches Uriah's attention. "And what did she say." He says with a little sass to his tone. He goes to the paper bag and pulls out a muffin and starts to inspect it.

"She's coming over soon." I pause watching Uriah take out the only bit of healthy in his muffin. The blue berries.

I reach over to the paper bag where I find 3 more muffins and I give him a 'why' look, raising both eyebrows to add more effect.

"Hey look.. I get two because I walked all the way to the coffee shop, which was 3 blocks I might add, it was tiring." I look at him amused. "Uriah theres a cafe down stairs."

He just hits me in the arms when we finally hear signs of life coming from the bed, Fours currently lying on.

"Good morning Four, did Uriah wake you." I greet talking as if I was talking to a child. He just groans.

"Well considering your all fresh and fine this morning." There a few taps on the door. "It's a good time to tell you that Shauna's coming over so get dressed." I explain while Uriah gets the door.

Only when Uriah does open the door she's not alone. Marlene, Will and Tori stand with her. They greet quickly making their way in to the room. Shauna's eyes almost immediately hitting mine.

Marlene stays at the door near Uriah where she kisses him passionately before clinging to his side like as if nothing had happened.

We all look to Shauna. "I'm sorry I brought a few extras." She smiles. "Don't worry the more the merrier." I tell her brushing it off. "Honestly as much as I would love to stay and chat but, why are we here." Tori asks while looking around the room.

Still nobody has noticed a very hungover looking Four still sitting in the bed sipping a loop warm coffee.

"Well I was hoping to leave this be but sadly I can't do that anymore." Shauna breaks the silence.

"When Tris was shot. They couldn't remove the bullet." We stare at her in shock.

"What do you mean they couldn't?" I ask her in disbelief. She looks down sheepishly.

"Well I'll have to explain later but it has her in some mind control thing." She looks up. "I wouldn't know how to explain to you what it is, I guess you could call it a simulation."

"She may know what's going on but it's hard to tell." She confirms.

"Can it be removed through. I mean is their a way to do it with out a serious consequence." She hesitates but shakes her head no.

But then smiles "But I might have an idea whose in."......
