Chapter Tris
"Tris, you go first." Shauna says interrupting Uri and Zeke's fight over who was first.
"Okay. Hmmm... Four, Candor or Dauntless?"
"Uh, Candor?" He says unsure.
"Pansycake!"
"URIAH I TOLD YOU THAT WORD IS NEVER GOING TO COME BACK SO STOP SAYING IT!"
"Wow Ezekiel, that hurts," Uri holds a hand over his heart. "Hurts right here."
"Moving on, Four..." I pause thinking for something that wouldn't be taken the wrong way by Uriah. "Are you gay?"
Everyone looks at me weirdly. "What? Its all I could think of." Lynn glares at me and I have no clue why.
"Okay, to answer the question, yes. I am happy." He took a pause inbetween yes and his next sentence in which my heart snapped.
"Smart, very smart." Mar congratulated.
"Shauna, C or D?"
Shauna contemplated before deciding.
"Its bad that you think just because I'm an ex-stiff I'll go easy on you." Shauna's grin turned upside down. "Shauna, I dare you to." He whispered something in her ear and looking at Zeke you could tell he was jealous from Four's closeness to her.
She nods and gets up. "Tris," she extends out a hand and I grab it so she can pull me up. "Tris, we've know each other a long time, and I think its time I express my feelings." My eyes grow wide. Is this what I think it is? Shauna get down on one knee and takes both my hands in hers. "Tris, when I saw you eating cake last week, I fell in love." She pauses and looks down. "So I ate my love. Tris, I ate the cake, not Uri."
She goes back to her original position in the circle leaving me dumbfounded. "What was the dare?"
"She had to confess something to someone but make it look like she was proposing." Four answers. I nod and sit back down.
"Uriah, choose. Your. Fate." Shauna's voice is low and menacing.
"Geez Shauna, you know the answer."
"I dare you to dress in a too tight tutu -a pink one- and skip around the pit singing 'I'm a pretty princess' until someone asks you if you need mental help or asks if you've taken your meds today."
Uriah flushes beet red. "By that I meant Candor."
"Ooooh pansycake!" We all -bar Four and Sharkie- shout.
Uriah groans. "Fine." He leaves with Mar as his spectator.

Uriah comes running in a few minutes later, his face even redder than I thought possible.
Mar comes into the room laughing her head of and explains that Mum, Dad, Aunt Hana and Uncle Max were there watching Uri's stint.
We laugh at first but then it subsides when the parents come into the room.
Sharkie and Four stiffen at the sight of Max, of course the do, the don't know our connection.
"Hey Mum, Dad, Uncle Andy, Aunt Nat." Zeke says.
"You here to challenge us?" I ask. The smirk on Mum's face tells me that she knows who the boy is.
"Beatrice," her smirk grows wider. "Which one was the lovely boy Uriah was telling me about." Uri cloapses on the floor in a fit of giggles.
"Oh geez, I don't know Mum." I rub my chin in sarcasm. "You know, maybe he's the new kid you've never met before?"
Four's eyes widen. "What I do?"
Max looks at my Mum, to me, to Four and back again.
"Four? Four's the guy you told us about? Are you serious Nat?"
"Four? What kind of a name is Four?"
"One that gets earnt by a guy with four fears."
"This is just weird, can we play now?" Sharkie breaks the ice.
We agree and all sit down.
