Divergent High

Chapter 24: Tris

Our friends walk through the door and they looked shocked. Their eyes all found the same thing at the same time, I follow their gaze and my eyes widen, Four seems to be the only one who doesn't notice, he looks confused. I nod my head towards the floor, where a giant red stain was.

Then his eyes go wide with fear, how was he found to explain this?

"Um... What happened?" Uriah asks finally breaking the silence.

"Who you believe me if I said Tris had lady problems on the floor?" Four says and I just look at him like he is an idiot along with the rest of the girls. Then I think of something quick.

"Well, he wasn't going to tell you because he didn't want to worry you, but..." I trail off and look at Four's face, it is full of hurt and betrayal, "Four was hit by a car, one of his previous cuts just reopened no biggy!" I say and then Fours eyes look relieved as he slowly nods and tries to look embarrassed.

"OMG! Is my beastie okay?" Zeke asks in a little girl voice and Four just rolls his eyes.

"Anyways, let's get back to the game!" Four says trying to change the topic. Everyone files out, but him and I linger around. "Tris?"

"Yes."

"When we are alone, call me Tobias, I like hearing my name out of your mouth." he says with a shy smile, he is so adorable. I can't help myself I give him a small peck on the mouth.

"Okay, Tobias." I say quietly so the others don't over hear, "let's go, the others are probably waiting." I take his hand and lead him out the door and we join the circle. I sit between Tobias and Chris. Tobias runs his hands through my hair and I lay my head on his shoulder.

"Zeke, T or D?" I ask.

"Give me a D!" he says then we all laugh at his immaturity.

"Let Chrissy dye your hair bright green!" I say, his eyes widen then he glares at me. He won't back down, he doesn't want to look like a pansycake.

"EEKKKK!" Christina say and then pulls Zeke into the nearest bathroom.

"Wait doesn't she need hair coloring?" Tobias asks me and I just look up at him.

"She comes prepared don't worry." is all I say and he just grins.

I give him a quick kiss then put my head back on his shoulder, and he puts his arm around my waist. Ten minutes later we hear an angry Zeke yell.

"CHRISITNA! THIS IS NOT GREEN!"

"Sorry, I must have used the wrong dye!" she shouts back, I can practically see the grin on her face. Zeke storms out with bright pink hair and we all use out laughing, well all minus Zeke.

"Tris, I hate you, so much right now!" he says and takes his seat next to Shauna and Will.

"Four, buddy, Truth or Dare?"

"Dare, I'm not scared of you!" he says smirking but his eyes look questionable.

"I dare you to take the peace serum we made in Science!" Zeke says and Four's eyes go huge. But he grabs the bright green vial and downs it in one gulp. A few seconds later he starts laughing.

"You guys are funny!" he says through giggles. Great, now my boyfriend is basically high, just what I need. "You're pretty, Twissy Poo!" he says and I try to 'playfully' punch him in the arm, but I apparently don't know my own strength.

"Twissy, that wasn't very nice!" he says, no, more like pouts. Then his eyes full with realization. "That's why you like me, cause you not very nice and neither am I!"

"Zeke when will this wear off?" I ask him getting annoyed with this side of Tobias.

"A few minutes, I hope..." Zeke trails off, uh oh.

"You hope?" Everyone asks at the same time.

"Well, I didn't tell him to drink the whole bottle, I thought he would only take a sip, it could last an hour, it just depends how strong his will is to fight the serum."

"You think it will go away faster if we try to make him angry?"

"Maybe, it's worth a shot, this Four is getting on my nerves, he is too nice." Zeke says.

"Four, you're not my friend!" Zeke attempts only to get a small frown from Four, but then he continues to smile.

"You're a man whore." Shauna tries and this gets him a little more, but man is that serum strong.

The Four starts playing with my hair. I swat his hand away.

"Stop! I don't like you anymore!" I say and the lie kills me. The hurt in eyes kills me even more.

"What?" he asks in his normal voice.

"Thank God! You're back to normal, never take that stuff again!" I say and kiss him to show I didn't mean what I said.
