A Crazy Little Thing Called Love

Ch 12: Everything Has Changed

OKAY. So as I told you I've been gone so I couldn't update, but I finnised this as soon as I could. I hope you like this chapter fills your expectation! As you probably noticed, I like Taylor Swift, I've made many references to her songs, like the name of this chapter. Also 'Mine' and 'Ours' are good songs for this chapter.

Thanks for the reviews! I love you all! Enjoy the chapter!

CH 12: POV TOBIAS

I've heard everything Tris did to Bryce once he cheated on her. It's been the talk of the school; everyone knows about it. The bad thing is, the first thing that went through my mind when I heard about their break up was the fact that Tris was now single, I was the only problem, and I was going to fix that.

"Hey Lauren." I say, not trying to hold back the annoyance in my tone like I usually do. Usually being all the time, when she shows up in front of my dorm.

"What's wrong, you sound annoyed?" She says, looking concerned. I have to hold in a laugh, because she is the reason I'm annoyed. I just ignore the question and get on with what I came here to tell her.

"Let's go inside and talk." I say, monotone. From the look in her eyes, I can tell that she's worried about where this is going.

After we enter, we both take a seat on my couch. "Look, Lauren, you're a beautiful, wonderful girl. I like you but maybe more as a friend " Not even as a friend but I don't want to sound too harsh. "We can still talk," I hope we won't talk. "But I think we're done." I know we're done.

It seems to take her several moments to comprehend what I said but soon she bursts into tears, mascara running. "This is because of that little blonde bitch!" Lauren accuses, screaming. "You were just using me, because you wanted that little whore! Well lets me tell you something! You will not get anything better than me! There is nothing I'm not! I'm beautiful, and kind- and everything she's not! She's just a little slut, working her way through every guy on the campus. She's already done with Bryce after what, a week? Not even. And she's already moved on, she kissed Uriah-" She continues to speak but I don't hear her.

Tris kissed Uriah? Why? Do they like each other? Well I know Uriah likes her, but I had no idea she liked him. But who cares, I will get Tris. I don't think Uriah and Tris are officially together yet so if I act fast, I might still have a chance. Since when have I acted like such a girl?

"Out." I demand to Lauren who's still going on about Tris. She looks flabbergasted. "What?" She says.

"You heard me." I reply coldly. Without another word, she leaves.

POV 3RD PERSON

As Tobias walks down the hallway to class, he hears the voice that's been haunting his thoughts.

"Uriah, it's not that I don't like you! I do, but as a friend. I really want us to continue being friends, I don't want what happened to ruin our friendship." Tris says, desperately, trying to get her point across. "Uriah, you're a marvelous person, and so many girls want you! Marlene likes you! She's perfect for you, you two would be so perfect together. I'm really not trying to upset you but we just would never have worked out as anything other than friends. Please just hear what I'm saying." Tris' heart swells with emotion as she says this. Every word she says is true but she still can't deny the fact that she might have had more than friendly feelings for him at some point.

Uriah hears the words that leave Tris' mouth, and he understands them, and to a certain degree agrees with them. But the rational part of his brain doesn't seem to want to work right now. All he can think of are his feelings for this girl- the thoughts cloud his mind making it impossible to think of anything else.
