Divergent High

Chapter 8

Tobias~

My alarm on my phone goes off, I quickly grab it to stop the annoying noise it was making. Lately I've been staying at Zeke's place to avoid my father, lately my beatings have become worse. I chuck my blankets off me and text Tris to see if she wants a ride to school in Zeke's Audi.. Not that Zeke knows I'm taking it yet.

Me: Hey Tris do you want a ride to school?

Tris: Hey! Uh yeah sure, what time?

Me: In half an hour? If that's okay

Tris: Yeah that's great, see you soon! I love you 💞

Me: I love you too Tris

I smile to myself and put my phone on my bedside table. I toss my blankets back over the mattress so it looks a bit more neater. Now I have to go awake the monsters. I go to Zeke's room first and opening the door quietly, I laugh as I see Zeke sprawled out across his bed and sucking on his thumb. I too toe back into my room and grab my phone and take a picture of Zeke and laugh. Uriah must of heard me laughing because he barges into the room shouting " what the hell is----- " he stops mid sentence and we both find ourselves on the floor laughing our heads off. Zeke awakes from his beauty sleep with drool running down his lip, his dark hair looks like a hedgehog. Once I regain the ability to stop laughing I say " so the princess has awoken" Uriah chuckles and goes to get changed.

I look at Zeke once more before leaving the room and laugh, as I walk back towards my bedroom to get ready I shout down the hall " oh and by the way I'm taking the Audi, to take my girlfriend to school" I smile at the thought that Tris is my girlfriend. I will protect with all my life and let nobody hurt her.

Suddenly to squealing girls come down the hall, but they were not girls they were Uriah and Zeke suddenly getting closer and me, I have no escape so I brace myself for the impact. Nothing comes I open my eyes and see the jumping up and down screaming and jumping, singing. " you two scream like girls!" I interrupt their singing and get a sassy look from the both of them. " uh no! We are just happy because we shopped you guys so much! Uriah gets a little teary and hugs me, " I'm so proud of you Tobias" He says.

Their craziness must run in their genes.

I go into my room and have a shower and get changed into a short sleeved black top and some jeans. I grab my phone and school bag and pack some lunch. Looks like Uriah has already eaten leftovers from last night. I chuck random things into my bag and sneakily get Zeke's Audi keys. I quietly close the front door behind me and text Tris I'll be at her house in 5 minutes. I unlock the car and hear a slam of the front door behind me.

" hey! You weren't going to leave without us were you?" Uriah shouts.

" Uhhh no no! Of course not" I lie.

" good" Zeke says and the two of them both hop in the back seat. I sigh as I make my round to the driver's seat, I open the door and find one single chip on my seat, I give Uriah a questioning look while he chomps on some chips.

" for you" he smiles widely.

" so generous Uriah" I suspiciously lift up the chip and shrug and toss it into my mouth. He flavour sends a sensation on my tongue, Uriah knows me too well.

I start the car and drive to Tris' house, on the short car ride all I could he is the two idiots munching on the chips loudly.

I sigh in relief when we get to Tris' place. Uriah jumps out the car when he sees Marlene, she is greeted with a spare packet of chips.. How thoughtful Uriah.

Shauna and Lynn come up to the car and ask if they can have a ride

" since when have you been here Lynn?" Zeke questions Lynn. Oh he's going to pay for that!

" she's been here the whole time" Shauna replies

" oh I never noticed, wait do you have superpowers? OMG can you go invisible? I've always wanted to be able to be ins visible sometimes so I can be a ninja!" Zeke rants on.

Lynn crouches down so her eyes meet with his, without a second thought she punches. Luckily Zeke put the window down earlier.. I can't help but laugh, Lynn raises her fist towards me " You want one too?" She says.

"Nah I'm good" I quickly say. Tris then comes out her front door, she says goodbye to her mother and closes the door. I push the door open and run up to Tris and hold her hand, I take her bag and swing it over my shoulder. She blushes, something must catch her eye because she looks back over to her house and see caleb looking from out of the curtains. She sighs and says "Caleb and my parents came back last night, I think Caleb just found out me and you are together"

I smile and say " does this mean I can kiss you?"

" yeah, everyone pretty much knows now. I told Christina and she told the whole group, such a Candor." She says, before I have the chance to speak again my lips are met with her soft lips.

We break the kiss when Shauna whistles at us.

Tris blushes a little, I take her cold hands and pull open the door for her to sit down. I give her bag back to her and shut the door.

I go around to my side and buckle myself in and shut my door again. I start the engine and realise Zeke is still in the car. " Hey Zeke why don't you walk with Shauna and Lynn?" I try to hide my smile as I see Lynn snicker out the corner of my eye.

"Yeah come on Zeke, we would love you to join us" Lynn says.

Zeke gulps and looks at me in horror, before he gets out he whispers in my ear, " this is for my otp, otherwise I wouldn't be doing this" he themselves shuts he door behind him.

Lynn grabs ahold of him, he starts screaming and struggles to get back to his car. I press my foot firm on the excelerator and zoom of down the road. I look in my review mirror and see a whimpering Zeke walking along the path.

I turn my head to Tris with one hand and on the steering wheel, and the other in her cold, numb hands. She faces towards me and says " Tobias I have something to tell you."
