Alright guys! Here's an update for all you awesome people. Hope you enjoy! And thanks to @divergent-nerd! I really appreciate all the kind comments! Here's to the writing...
I wake up in my bed, smiling. Aidan is no longer next to me in his bed. I wonder where he went.
Last night, Tristan's idea of fun consisted of going to the Pit like real dauntless members and getting drunk. I only had a couple beers, but Tristan let loose. It was fun to see him happy and excited, like nothing could stop him. He wanted me to let loose too, but I was too worried for today. I still danced like a fool with Tristan, but I did it sober. Needless to say, if every night in dauntless was like that, with Tristan and the loud music with the dauntless atmosphere and exciting music, I'll live a very happy life here.
This morning is the job choosing. They wanted it to be in the morning so they could get it done and over with. They're probably tired of us being initiates and they just want to get us into dauntless already.
I really have no clue what I want to choose. I'll probably say the first job that's left, and if I have to choose first... I'll wing it, dauntless style.
I slip on a dark navy dress that hugs my body tight and then flares at the waist. The waist has a belt that has sparkles on it. Kenna put my in 5 inch black heels, which are a couple inches too tall. My blond hair is tied back into a side ponytail with a navy clip. I put on shiny lipgloss. That's all.
Kenna and Sapphire walk over to me while I smooth down my hair. Kenna has a demanding look on her face like she's expecting details about something. Sapphire just walks behind Kenna with a bored expression on her face.
"What happened?" Kenna demands. I don't even have to ask if she's talking about Aidan. "On moment you're all snuggle snuggle in bed and the next he comes back smashing pictures!!"
"Chill Kenna." She rolls her eyes now and Sapphire looks amused with this turnout. "I was up early and went to the chasm. Tristan was there. We hung out and say down together and he had his arm around me in a very friendly way. Aidan popped up, mad as heck at me and Tristan. I started to get mad back. Then we both calmed down after he mention he was looking for me and dreamed about us all night. Then we got mad again because he couldn't trust me." Tears well up in my eyes. "We broke up."
Even the most sharp and determined person like Sapphire has sympathy in her eyes. "Oh Kayla," she mumbles. She rubs my arm. "That really stinks." Yeah I know.
"Thanks Sapphire," I mumble back. She wraps her muscular arms around mine. I hug her back.
Sapphire unravels from me so I can turn to Kenna. "Come here." We turn and hug each other hard. It feels good to let it out between the two of them after my first and certainly not last heartbreak. "Can we meet Tristan? Do you think this is a good relationship?" Kenna asks.
From a far away place I nod my head. The only thing I can see is a girl in bed with Aidan. He sits up and twirls her hair around his finger, something he never did with me. I register the girl as a transfer. He did this to get back at me. The saddening part is it looks like he loves her, more than he loved me.
Kenna and Sapphire avert their eyes away from mine and look where I'm looking. They see the girl in bed with Aidan. Sapphire cracks her knuckles. Kenna looks at him softly. There responses are very different:
"He's a dead man," Sapphire mumbles fiercely. "He's probably trying to get over you," Kenna murmurs.
I roll my eyes. "I can't contort him any more," I say softly. "He's on his own. But I still love him, and I always will. He is still my best friend and some days I might love him as more. He's only human."
