Tris P.O.V
The week passed really slow. The wait for the game was so long that my heart started to ache which made my chest heavy with all the excitement.

At last, Saturday came it was like centuries ago we were invited for this tournament. I and Haze got ready we both wore quite the same outfit: white shirt, black jacket, combat boots and black pants.

Christina came to take us to Zeke's house. From there we went to an auditorium specially designed for this game there were two levels which can be reached only by a ladder. Several boxes were in a line and stacked one top of one another.

"Listen all," Uriah said. We all gathered round him. "Let's play boys vs girls. The losers will serve the winners till midnight. And we all know who is going to lose and win," he looks at us." Sounds great?"

We all nodded and collected guns filled with paint.

"Look before you leap," is all I say to Uriah.

My first instinct was to seek higher ground so I climbed the ladder till I reached the highest floor. I positioned myself and had my hand in the trigger always ready to fire.

The game started. I looked down and saw Haze hunched behind the boxes which acted as a shield towards her, and rose after every 10 seconds to fire. Christina was shooting continuosly and Lynn guarding her back. Shauna was on the floor beneath me. Marlene was standing on top of one of the boxes, aiming and shooting.

One by one Zeke, Uriah, Will, Marlene, Lynn, Christina and Shauna were out and every part of there body was covered in paint. Now only Four, me, Haze and Gus are left. Gus and Four were really quiet and attacked at the time when you are least expecting them. But I and Haze have sharp ears and quick reflexes.

Minutes passed no sound is heard. After a little while I saw Gus and Haze have attacked each other. Both of their faces are covered in paint that leaves Four and me.

After a moment or two I hear footsteps coming towards me I prepare myself. I descend the ladder as quietly as I can and reach in the ground I am now fully exposed to my enemy. At the blink of an eye Four stands infront of me and fires, I duck which made the paint hit the boxes behind me. He fires one by one, but it always misses me.

"That's all you got, Four?" I tease him."Now it's my turn," and with that I shoot in the direction he would most likely go, but it doesn't hit him it hits his gun. The force of the paint was so much that it made the gun fall from his hand. Now he was unarmed,"Easy" I mutter under breath. No it is not. He runs towards his gun and I start to shoot but it misses him so when I am near him I lauch myself towards him and on my impact with him I wrap my arms around his body, caging him. But he is too powerful and frees himself I make no haste and shoot which luckily hits him.

All the girls cheer and run towards me and embrace me. All of the boys sit in one corner feeling sort of embarrassed.

We all came to my and Haze's apartment, washed all the paint and then Christina said, "Well boys as you lose you have to listen to us, what can we tell them to do girls?"

"First, you all can go in the kitchen and bake a cake because we girls need to celebrate our victory." Marlene says.

They all leave us in my room and all of us discussed what kind of activities we should ask them to do.

"Uriah!" I say.

"What Tris?!" He snaps.

"We all need orange juice."

"I'll get it." And then he stomps to the kitchen.

After an hour, the sweet smell of chocolate starts to come from the kitchen. When we went to the kitchen we saw delicious chocolate cake on the kitchen counter ready to be frosted. My mouth started to water by the look of the cake. Four was making something on the stove, Will was measuring milk, Zeke was cutting strawberries, Gus was mixing something and Uriah was grinding.

"When is the cake going to be ready?" Christina asks.

"In approximately 20 minutes," Will said looking in his watch.

After 20 minutes, the table had a jug of juice, pizza and also frosted, chocolate cake decorated with strawberries and ground chocolate. We all sat down. Four and Haze sat  beside me.

As we started to eat Christina said, "I bet you orderered the pizza."

"No we didn't we made it," Will said.

As I took a bite of it the the flavour sauce, the goo-eness of the cheese and the crispness of the crust started to fill my mouth.

"How did you guys made it? Cause its so tasty." I ask.

"With teamwork." Four said.

After dinner, we had dessert. It looked really good but as I tasted it the flavour filled my mouth. After a long time I had something so delicious.

"Who made this cake?" I asked with one eyebrow up.

"This is all thanks to Four he made it," Will said.

"I didn't know that you were a really good cook, Four," I said nudging his arm.

"There are many other things you don't know." He whispers in my ear.

I did not knew what he meant by it.

After dinner, we all sat down to watch a movie. It was a superhero movie. I really liked it.

Then, all of the girls went into my room to sleep while the boys slept in Haze's room.
