Trying again

Chapter 2

Shauna pov~

I stare at the  little,rectangular,pink,plastic thing in my hand. This can't be what's deciding my future it can't. But I know when I stare at the two little pink lines that means positive it already has. I wrap my hands around the toilet seat and cry.

This isn't what me and Zeke want. We decided that. No kids, not now, not ever. Especially not now. I'm 18 still a kid myself and Zeke's almost 20 too young to be a Dad. How can me and Zeke-

What will he do? Will he leave me? I manage to stop crying for a minute to lift up the floorboard were I hide the small bottle of pills.

I remember when Zeke saw. He made me stop. He was angry at first but that anger melted to loving sadness.

"Your to good for this" he told me throwing the bottle in to the bin.

I agreed with him at the time. Now I wash down two pills with a bottle of vodka.

Christina's pov~

I miss Will. I don't blame Tris...well only partly. I had gotten over him, not forgotten but learnt to live again. Living for the moments that didn't suck. Most of those moments were spent with Uriadh. I loved Uriadh, not the same way as Will but it was still love. I remember jokingly me and Uriadh writing C + U on our wrists. That was the day of the explosion. I never washed that wrist but the 'U' faded. Some sick joke  from the universe I guess. The day they unplugged him I washed away the ink and replaced it with scars.

I wear oversized jumpers to cover my scarred arms. But everyone still tiptoes around me like I'm some kind of lunatic. Maybe I am, because I don't really know what I am anymore.

I only go to dinner because I know Tris will make me tell her everything if I don't. On the way I pass Shaunas and Zeke's shared apartment

"Its your own fault you little whore"

"Oh really? I wasnt the drunk with the bright idea"

"Well sorry that I needed a drink after visiting my dead little brothers grave"

"And you think I didn't? My sisters dead as well"

There's the sharp hiss of a slap and then Zeke storms out muttering under his breath.

I continue walking but before the door falls shut I see Shauna curled up on the floor crying. The old Christina would have comforted her, but the new Christina has her own problems

Tobias pov~

I go straight from the work to the cafteria so I don't have to see Tris. Zeke walks by me and I grabs his shoulder

"What's up Zeke?" I say needing his endless thoughts about the cafeteria food to drown out my problems.

"Nothing" he reports back sharply knocking my hand away

"Hey what's wrong? You and Shauna fight?" I laugh, he turns around and punches me in the face my head hitting the hard concrete wall, knocking me out cold.
