Title: Crazy and Lost
Rating: PG (minor swears)
Prompt: 10. no time for spreadin’ roots
Summary: Franzen goes to Briar for help
"You better love her because Tris can bring a hurricane from -"
"Yes I know, Sandry! She'll kill me if I'm not serious about her, and you will too."
"Don't mock me! I'm serious! She left me for you so you better be ten times the friend that I am to her, and that's pretty hard to -"
Franzen swiped the bowl of the counter in one quick thrust of his arm. Fury built up in the deep of his heart. Sandry can be so, so... overprotective.
But soon, doubt settled into him, her words seeped through his pores. I've got to be a good friend... who should I go to to learn more about her?
Franzen sighs and glances out his window. The bright day with joyous bird songs seemed to be mocking him. The green bushes, so green...
Briar.
Franzen bounds out of his bedroom and races to the gardens. "Briar! Briar! Over here!"
"What do ya want?" he cries.
"Help!"
"Yeah, I'll get to those brown rust spots of flowers you got in a second!"
"No it's about Tris!"
Finally, Briar clambers out of the dirt and walks over. "Everyone knows you've got an eye for her, so?"
"Tell me something about her."
"She's got weather magic, she's got a sharp tongue, she's got -"
"Tell me something I don't know!" Franzen cries.
Briar rolls his eyes with irritation.
"What now?"
"Franzen, you've got it all wrong."
"Which is why I'm asking you for help!"
"No, you're trying to climb before you can grow out your roots."
"Well what should I do?"
"Ya really like her, huh?"
"Yes, god damn it! I love her with my life and soul."
"Okay, I just wanted to see if you're really into Tris before I -"
"Briar! Everyone's been asking me, 'do you love her' and 'are you really invested in you're relationship' and I'm sick of it! By every damn god and goddess, I'll do whatever I need to do for her!"
"Oh, that's good."
"What?" Franzen asks, out of breath.
"You tell her that, and she'll feel you're heart and know where it is. Then you ask her stuff about herself and you tell her stuff about yourself. You just can't ask someone who someone else is because then it isn't comin' from the heart as much as it is if you actually approach them and genuinely talk to them."
"Umm... "
"Just talk to her and really bond before you jump into anything, okay? By the gods, I've never known any other guy who's as crazy and lost as you are." Briar mutters.
