Divergent High

Chapter 9: Four

Tris looks good, but I don't let my face show it. In fact, I'm not even sure why I think that. Aren't we supposed to hate each other?

When Tris goes through the door she looks tired and like she wants to home. Good she is miserable.

I look at the clock and it says 7:00PM. Almost game time.

"Everyone, Games start in 30minutes!" I yell to the ginormous crowd of people in my house, good thing Marcus is away for a principals of the state thing, whatever I don't care about him.

I look around and then see Uriah hand Tris a drink. Oh no. When Uriah looks away though Tris just pours it in the plant next to her. Then I see Uriah and Tris' friend, Marlene, kissing and pretend gag, and I see Tris do the same.

Then she looks over to me and we just stare at each other. Her eyes are really pretty... Wait. What?! I feel a tap in my shoulder and turn around and am met by a pair of lips. That I realize as Nita. Ugh, she gets annoying sometimes.

"I forgive you." she says as she pulls back. I almost rolls my eyes, well duh! we wouldn't have just made out if she was still pissed off at me.

I wonder what it would be like to kiss Tris?

"WHAT?!" Nita says giving me a death glare. Shoot. "WHY WOULD YOU WANNA KISS THAT BITCH?"

"um..." I try to think of something to say, but nothing comes to mind. I don't really care if she leaves. Then she does and I almost sigh with relief.

I look over to the clock again and see I have ten minutes until game time. I grab a beer and chug it, luckily I am not easy to get drunk.

Ten minutes later I call out that games are starting for those who want to join. Not too many people come running to play. PANSYCAKES.

Eventually we have: Me, Zeke, Uriah, Shauna, Marlene, Tris (who was forced by Mar), Christina, Will, Eric, and Lauren.

"First game is... Bed, Wed, or Kill!" Uriah announces, "Take too long and you are out! After 3 people are out we move to the next game!" Everyone just nods.

"Okay, my party, I go first!" I say and think of my victim, I will take it easy, "Lauren, bed, wed, or kill... Zeke, Me, and Will!"

"Bed Four, Wed Will, Kill Zeke!" she says almost with hesitation. "No offense Zeke." she adds.

"Um... Eric, bed, wed, or kill... Four Zeke or Uriah!"

"What?!" he says and just sits there until times up.

"Okay, I guess I'll go!" Zeke says, "Tris! Bed Wed Kill: Four Will Uriah?"

"Kill Four! Wed Will! Bed Uriah!" she says after a moments hesitation.

Marlene and Christina glare at her and she shrinks back.

"Marlene! Bed Wed Kill: Four Zeke Uriah?"

"Bed Uriah..." then she hesitates an times up.

"I'll go!" Uriah says, "Zeke! Bed Wed Kill: Shauna, Christina, Tris?"

"Wed Shauna, Bed Tris, Kill Christina!" he says with little hesitation. We all just stare. Then he explains, "I love Shauna, Christina is just annoying, so that just left Tris for bed!"

I feel something, anger? Jealousy? Why, I don't like Tris... I don't think.

"Four! Shauna, Christina, Lauren?"

"Bed Lauren, Wed Shauna, and Kill Christina!" I say, "Tris: Zeke, Lauren, Christina?" her pretty eyes ho wide but she answers.

"Bed Zeke, Wed Christina, Kill Lauren!" She says, "Lauren: Christina, Uriah, and Zeke!"

"Umm..." she thinks, but time is up! She goes and sits on the couch of losers.

"Next game... Spin the Bottle!" Zeke shouts.
