Chapter 30
A/N: Alright you guys. Are you ready for this? I hope you are because in this chapter we will be going into the deep, dark, strange, and insanly small mind of... Zeke Pedrad. I would like to say a quick thank you to @shamzi for the idea of this. With out further ado lets travel into the mind of the strange creature we all know and love, Zeke. Enter.... if you dare.
Zeke's POV
"Zeke. Zeke. Zeke wake up!"
"Five more minutes mommy." I groan while rolling over.
"Zeke. I'm not your mom." The voice says while giggling.
I gasp and bolt up,"Jesus? is that you???"
"No you idiot. It's me." I turn towards the voice and see Shauna sitting on the edge of the bed laughing.
"Oh well that makes since. I was wondering why Jesus would sound like a girl." I comment.
She just rolls her eyes and stands up,"Come on get up everyone is already awake and downstairs."
I huff and stand up too,"Why does everyone wake up so early?"
"It's almost one in the afternoon. I don't know what world you've been living in but here that is not considered early." She says and starts walking downstairs.
"Well you have seen my face right," I ask and head down with her,"I need my beauty sleep if you want me to keep this beautiful face."
"Just because you have a nice face doesn't mean you can sleep till one in the afternoon." She retorts.
I gasp dramatically,"You really think I have a nice face?"
"Don't flatter yourself." She says her eyes only on where she is walking and not on me.
"It's alright I think you have a nice face too." I say while pecking her cheek.
She looks over at me while grinning,"There, now that's better." She presses her lips to mine then walks into the kitchen without saying another word.
That's when it hits me. Something that changes everything. Something dark, cold, and something no one should ever go through. Some dramatic stuff here.... I missed breakfast!!!! *Cue horror music* *Oh and some high pitched scream*
This is it. My life is over. No! Eziekel Pedrad get your flat butt in there and face it, you missed breakfast. I do not have a flat butt. Yeah I do. No I don't! Stop it I am confusing everyone just go in the kitchen and stop being such a pansycake. That's it I can't use my brother's stupid word against myself, I'm going in.
"Well good morning sleeping beauty." Everyone greets when I walk in.
"Hey shut it," I scold and sit in one of the stools at the counter.
"Looks like someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed." Uriah says in a sing-song voice.
"Nah Uri that's not the problem, he finally realized he has a flat butt." Will says making them crack up while I glare at both of them.
"Guys give him a break," Four says. Will and Uriah stops laughing and look down ashamed.
"Thank you buddy. See someone ge-"
"It's obvious he just started his period today." He says cutting me off. The three guys then break out into laughter.
"No." I state sternly,"That's actually not what the problem is. It's something a lot worse actually, I missed breakfast." The room grows silent and everyone just stares at me.
"Seriously?" Four asks.
"I know really," Tris says,"In what world would you think that missing breakfast is worse than being on your period?"
"Someone make this poor soul a sandwich!" Four exclaims while putting a hand on my shoulder. Uriah and Will hop out of their seats and start making one.
"It's ok. You will make it." Four reassures me. I take a deep breath and nod.
"You can not be serious right now." Tris says astonished.
"It's just breakfast you aren't going to die because you skipped it." Marlene says.
"Marlene." Four scolds,"You can't say that to him. He is strong and fighting through it. He's a survivor and you can't just act like it's no big deal. Besides breakfast is the most important meal of the day."
"What are you two on this morning?" Christina asks.
"He's on nothing that's the problem." Four defends.
"This is so stupid." Lynn mutters. A little gasp is heard and Mason wiggles out of his chair and walks over to Lynn then slaps her arm.
"That's not nice!" He exclaims and climbs back into his chair.
"Everyone move out of the way! Sandwich coming through!" Uriah shouts with Will following behind holding a beautiful turkey sanwich.
"One sandwich coming up!" Will says with a fancy accent and places it in front of me.
I gasp and sniffle,"I don't know how to thank you guys. This is the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me!"
"Nicest thing anyone has ever done for you? So all the times when I have taken care of you when you were sick, all of the times I had to deal with your drunk butt and the hangover that comes after it. Them making you a sandwich is the nicest thing ever?"
"You've never had to make me a sandwich when I missed breakfast." I reply and take a bite out of probably the best sandwich I have ever put in my stomach.
"Alright well the girls and I are going shopping so have fun doing whatever it is you guys do." Christina says. After we all say goodbye the girls leave and now it's just us guys, and Mason. He would be considered a boy not a guy, there's a difference.Yeah high five Zeke using that brain of yours!
"Ok so now what?" Will asks.
"Now we have some fun. I mean the girls just left that means we get ot do what ever we want with out them holding us back." I announce while standing up.
"Yeah!" Uriah agrees,"We can go to some bars and crash some parties."
"No," Four disagrees and gesutres to Mason who is in his arms,"We still have him and I am definietly not bringing him to some bar with drunk people doing who knows what."
"Buzz kill." Will mutters earning a glare from Four.
"Besides he's only three. Who would let a three year old into a bar?" He asks.
"We could always disguise him to look like a man." I suggest. Four just rolls his eyes and shakes his head,"In what world do you think that would work? No we are going to have to hold off on that plan until next time. When we don't have to watch him."
"So we basically can't do anything fun then." Uriah says and slouches down in his chair.
"No little brother! Don't talk like that!" I shout and stand up on the counter top and start walking back and forth,"Just because we have to watch the most awesome kid ever doesn't mean we can't have fun. You three are lucky, you are friends with me and when you are friends with me you always do something fun!"
Next thing I know I slip on a banana peel that was on the counter and fall off the counter and onto the floor. The whole room fills with laughter as I groan in pain. Let me tell you falling off a counter top is not the most comfortable feeling in the world. I hear little footsteps next to me and Mason's face appears in front of me.
"Get up pansycake." He says while nudging me with his foot.
"OHHHHHHHHH!!!!" Uriah shouts while running around the kitchen. Four and Will just sit there cracking up at me.
"Aren't you going to do anything?" I ask Four as I get off the floor.
"Who me?" He asks innocently.
"Yeah he is your kid," I say like its obvious,"And usually when your kid does something bad you are supposed to ground them."
"Now why would I ground him when he didn't do anything wrong?" He asks with a smirk on his face.
"You are raising a violent kid." I comment while wiping imaginary dust off of me.
"Better than raising him dumb like you." He retorts. Uriah, who is stil running around yelling starts yelling even louder after his comment.
I sit there for a second and nod,"We'll played buddy, we'll played."
"Uriah for pickle's sake, shut up!" Will exclaims and chucks an apple at his head which Uriah in return just sits there unaffected.
"Ha! You can't hurt someone's head if they have no brain!" He exclaims.
"You know what Will's comment just made me realize?" I ask breaking up their fight.
"What?" They all ask.
"I really want a pickle." I comment and walk over to the fridge and pull out the pickle jar. As I'm eating this amazing pickle I get a great idea, but I mean when do I never have a good idea? I'm just that amazing all my ideas are amazing too.
"Idea!!!!!" I exclaim getting everyone's attention,"What if we do go to the bar-"
Before I can finish I am rudely cut off by the buzz kill himself, Four,"Zeke. No."
"Calm down papa bear you didn't let me finish," I state,"I was going to saw three of us go while one of us stays here with Mason and we will draw the three of your names out of a hat."
"Why wouldn't your name be in there?" Will asks.
"Because I'm amazing and I also came up with this plan." I answer.
"Fair enough." They all say at the same time. Well that was weird.
"So what do you say papa bear?" I ask.
He thinks for a second then nods,"Ok fine."
"Yasssssss!!!!!" Will, Uriah, and I exclaim. After we fill the names in a bowl I place it in front of me while the three of them stand on the other side of the table.
"Welcome to the first ever babysitting game." I announce.
"What? Why are you calling it the babysitting games? How about something cooler and not as girly?" Uriah asks.
"Silence peasant. I am the creator of the game therefore I can call it whatever the heck I want to. Now let's begin. When I call your name please step forward you will be the honorary babysitter." I explain in my awesome announcer voice.
"Wow Zeke you are using big boy words now!" Four exclaims like I'm a child.
"Woman!" I say,"You need to get off my back." He just smirks and holds his hands up in defeat. I turn to Will who has been oddly quiet.
"Anything you would like to add?" I ask sarcastically when he doesn't answer I smile in victory and turn back to everyone.
"Someone's PMSing." I hear him mumble followed by Four and Uriah's laughter.
"Guys!" No answer, just laughter.
"Guys!" Again nothing. I let out an annoyed sigh and drop at glass cup that was on the counter making it shatter into a million pieces on the floor. The laughter stops.
"What was that for? Now there's glass all over the floor." Four says. Ha floor Four that rhymed. Anyways....
"Calm down the babysitter will pick up the pieces. Now you have to pay attention because this is a serious matter here. The babysitting games is not something to joke about." I say. I then put my hand into the bowl and grab one of the pieces of paper randomly,"Uriah Pedrad!"
Four and Will sigh in relief while Uriah stands there with his mouth agape,"But- but I- I wanna go to the club!"
"Well sucks. Maybe you shouldn't have such bad luck." Will says.
"Wait a second. I'm not sure it's the best idea to have Uriah watch Mason." Four says.
"Come on man!" I exclaim,"Uriah will take perfectly good care of him."
"But he's Uriah. He almost used a knife as a fork, he was so close to stuffing it in his mouth until I took it away from him and gave him a fork instead." Four protests.
"Come on Four don't be a baby," Will taunts,"Or unless you actually are and we need to get you a babysitter."
He sighs in frustation,"Fine! I will go!"
"This isn't fair," Uriah pouts while slouching in the stool,"He is Four's child anyway. Why can't he watch Mason while I take his place. Besides he doesn't even want to go."
"No. We need him." I say instantly.
"Why? I can be more fun than he is." He defends.
"Yeah well he's famous so." I answer.
"Oh so that's why you want me to come so badly?" Four asks with his eyebrows raised,"So it's not like you want me to come becuase I'm your best friend or anything. It's just because I'm well known?"
"No don't be silly," I reply,"It's both. Not only will I have my best friend with me, but you are also a celebrity. Which means you can get us into the best clubs around."
"What!? Now I want to go even more!" Uriah exclaims.
"Sucks for you. Now come on we have to go." Will says. I take Four and drag him out.
"Wait I need to give Uriah directions." He protests and pulls away from me but I just yank him in my direction and pull him out with Will behind me.
"Don't be so overprotective he will be fine." I say and lead them both out to my car. This is going to be one crazy night.
A/N: what is this I see? Is this another change of POV? Well yes it is. We are going to be traveling in the messed up mind of the other strange Pedrad brother, Uriah. Thank you so much to @katiesweg for the idea of this part. Just as I said before, I am not responsible for the lack of brain cells you will get when you read this. Thank you and have a safe trip!
Uriah's POV
I can't believe they just left me like that. I wanted to go to! Now I have to spend my Friday night baby sitting Four's child. He should be watching him, not me. Why does someone so beautiful have to have bad luck? I feel like someone is watching me. I look around and jump ten feet in the air when I see Mason is sitting at the counter staring at me with a strange smirk on his face.
"H-hi Mason," I greet kindly,"Why are you looking so creepy?"
"I'm bored!" He exclaims while putting his head down on the counter. Ummm ok? Now what do I do with a three year old child who is bored? I look around the room to try to find something to entertain him when my eyes land on a bottle of whiskey in a clear case cabinet. No Uriah. Kids can't drink alcohol. Ok then what am I supposed to do with him? Oh! I know get him a chew toy! Wait no he's not a dog.
"I have an idea how about we play video games?" I ask.
His head instantly pops up and starts nodding furiously,"Yeah!" Hmmm maybe this whole babysitting thing is easier than what people say. Heck I would be one awesome parent! I have no idea why Four and Tris always complain about how hard it is.
*time lapse*
I groggily open my eyes and stretch. Huh I must have fallen asleep. I look around and see that everyone is gone. Oh yeah I forgot everyone left and it's just me and Mason. Wait a second. I look around frantically and realize he's no where to be seen.
"Mason!?" I shout and run around the apartment,"Mason! Come out little buddy!" After fifteen minutes of searching every inch of this apartment I realize he isn't here. Next thing I know I here the door click and voices and laughing. It's the guys. I let out a sigh of relief the girls would've whooped my butt if they found out I lost Mason. Then again Four is good with guns. Shoot either way I'm gonna die. This is it the amazing Uriah Pedrad will only be a memory in your minds, and in your textbooks.
"Uriah you here?" I hear Zeke yell from downstairs.
"Uh y-yeah one second!" I stutter. Well it's now or never. When I walk into the living room Zeke, Will, and Four are sitting on the couch laughing about something that someone said.
"Hey Uriah," Four greets while eyeing me suspiciously.
"He-hey." Uriah stop stuttering. Hey I can't help it you try loosing a three year old kid. Shoot what is he's dead!? No don't think like that Pedrad!
"Well everything seems to be clean, but one question," He says. Crap I know where this is going,"Where is Mason?"
"Technically he is on the Earth just like the rest of us." I squeak out. Wait squeak? Uriah Pedrad does not squeak.
"Uriah," He says sternly and slow,"Where, is, Mason?"
"I may have sorta... Lost him." I whisper the last part.
"You lost him!?" All three of them exclaim.
"Maybe..." I trail off.
"How do you lose a three year old in an apartment!?" Four exclaims while standing up.
"By falling asleep." I answer.
"Seriously? You feel asleep while babysitting?" Zeke asks like I'm insane,"Do you remember what happened before you did?"
"Ummmm well we were playing Call Of Duty and I think he was thirsty is he grabbed something out of the fridge. He brought it back to me to open so with out thinking I just opened it and then fell asleep not to long after that." I recall.
"How stupid are you!?" Will asks,"Do you at least know what you gave him?"
"Ummm hold on let me think. Well it was in a can, but it wasn't beer," After I mention that everyone lets out a sigh of relief,"Wow I'm ashamed you guys actually thought I would give him beer. Anyways it was a tall black can... A Monster! Oh yeah that's what it was, I gave him a Monster."
"Uriah. You can't give a three year old a Monster!" Four exclaims.
I hold my hands up in defense,"Hey at least it wasn't beer."
"Well he has to be some where in the apartment. I mean he can't reach the lock to the door and Uriah locked the door after we left, so he couldn't have gotten out." Will says.
"Wait. I was supposed to lock the door after you left?" I ask suddenly,"No one told me that."
"No one is supposed to tell you Uriah. You are 21 years old you should be old enough to realize that you have to lock the door after someone leaves. Especially if you and Mason are the only ones here." Zeke lectures.
"Oh no.." Four mumbles while sitting back down,"He could be anywhere. Do you know how much that kid likes to walk? If we gave him the chance he would walk all the way to the other side of the state."
"Ok we just need to calm down and think. What is his favorite place to go to. And think resonably he couldn't have gone to far we have to think of places close to here." Will says. The room grows silent as we all think.
"I got it!" Four exclaims while standing up again,"The Dauntless Diner. It's his favorite place and he loves the Dauntless cake there. It's also walking distance from here so it is a possiblity."
"Well then what are we waiting for? Let's go catch ourselves a runaway kid!" Zeke announces. With that the four of us literally run out of the apartment building and run over to the Dauntless Diner. Four is the first one to get there. He bursts through the door and frantically walks around the diner ignoring people's stares obviously recognizing him.
We all split up around the diner and look in every place. It is then that I realize everything is silent in here and everyone is just watching us look around like crazy people. Suddenly my eyes land on a small figure laying in a booth in the corner. As I walk closer I realize its Mason. He is curled into a ball sleep with Dauntless cake all over his face and the table. How he got the cake I will never know but that's not waht matters right now.
"FOUR!" I shout,"I found him!" With that the three guys come dashing towards me.
"Oh thank goodness." Four says in relief and scoops his son into his arms hugging him tightly.
"Awwwwww." I hear. I turn around and see everyone in the diner watching us while taking pictures and videos. I roll my eyes and turn back to my friends these people need a life. I instantly regret turning back around because I am met with Four's signature death glare.
I grin and chuckle uneasily,"Yay we found him!"
But his glare doesn't falture,"You are never watching him ever again."
"Yeah I kind of figured that." I reply,"Just please don't tell Tris about this."
He thinks for a second then nods,"I won't tell her. Not because I'm saving you from your death but because I'm saving my own butt too. She would kill me if she found out I left him alone with you when I was supposed to be watching him."
"So does that mean you love me again?" I ask with an innocent smile on my face.
"Don't get me wrong I'm still really mad at you. I just will spare you your life." He replies.
I let out a sigh of relief,"Oh thank goodness. All my fans would like to thank you." I say gesturing to all of the people still staring intently a us with cameras still in their hands.
"I don't think it's you they are interested in." He says.
"Of course I am the reason. Just watch." I reply and turn towards everyone and start walking closer to them. At that exact moment they all start screaming and yelling for autographs yelling something about marrying them.
"Thank you everyone!" I greet but realie their eyes are on something else. I look over and see Four right next to me with Mason in his arms still asleep. He is smiling at everyone and waving with his free hand.
"See told ya." He comments with a smirk and winks at me.
I let out a frusterated groan,"Someday I'm telling you. Someday the world will know who I am."
He lets out an amused laugh,"Ok you keep telling yourself that. Now come on let's go home before the girls get there." As we are walking down the road there is a group of little girls screaming and running away from us. Don't ask me why but they are.
"See Uriah. Now that's what girls do when they see you." Zeke says.
"Well played brother. Well played."

A/N: Was that long enough for you guys? I feel like I say this in every chapter but I am sorry for such a long wait, but you know school takes up all your time. So I'm sorry if some of the stuff in this chapter doesn't make in since I actually wrote most of it while I was in class anytime I had the chance to write in class I did. Thank you all for your support. I am definietly going to keep on writing. I am actually trying to brainstorm ideas for an original story. Don't worry though I am still going to be writing fanfic too I will just be doing both. Also a new Divergent story won't come up until this one is finished and I am absolutely certain and comfortable with the idea for the fanfic.
Anways thank you all so much for your support. Each and every one of you means the world to me and I honestly wouldn't have found my passion for writing if it wasn't for you guys. Thank you all so much for one million reads on Divergent High. i can't even express how greatful I am for all of this. If you ever need anyone to talk just know I will always be here for you and I won't judge you I promise. :*
QOTD: What is the worst book you've ever read?
Answer: I can't believe I'm actaully going to say this because now everyone is going to hate me. Honestly the worst book I've ever read is the Fault In Our Stars. I'm sorry I just honestly didn't like it and it didn't really appeal to me that much.
Once again thank you all so much. I will see all of you beautiful people in my next update! :)
