I made it but not only that I am first. I am so happy that I just scream and so is everyone else. The rest of the members are Dauntless-born and so I do not pay attention to their name. I feel bad for Molly and Drew they have to go to pack their things because they are now factionless. That is when I feel a tap on my shoulder I turn to see who it is. It is Tobias he says in a low whisper.
"Do you think a hug will give away too much?"
"I really don't care" I am now on my tiptoe so that we are now face to face, out lip press together. All I can think is that today is the best day of my life. I am the more relaxed I have been in a long time. That is until Christina grabs my arm and pulls me out of it.
"TRIS, What, when, how" you can tell she is upset at me for not telling her sooner. Both she and Will are waiting for an answer. I look at Tobias and he has his hand carefully around my hips. I feel safe in his arms.
"Well explain..."
"There is not too much that I need to explain." Not wanting this questioning to continue.
"That is not good enough Tris, I thought we were best friends and, you don't tell me you are dating!"
"Well, I did not think it relevant and, you know it now. We are best friends."
"You did not think it was relevant. How is it not? I told you about Will and me. But you forget to tell me that you are dating Four? There is no way."
"You never seemed very interested in my dating life. I was going to tell you when the time was right. But, this happened before I could tell you."
"When was the time ever going to be right?"That is when I hear Zeke's footstep.
"Four is that you." He is now right behind us an has his hand on Tobias' shoulder.
"Yes, that was me," he replies
"So is this your girlfriend."
"Yes, this is Tris,"
"Yeah I know her but, I did not know that you two were dating."
"No one did till now."
"Ok, I thought that you would at least tell me but I was wrong," he says joking
"I know right how could you Tris," Christiana say right in the middle of the conversation. She sounded so hurt with me and, so I just said.
"I sorry, I should have told you"
"Fine"
"Ok, now I want to get all of the secrets out of all of you so Candor or Dauntless tomorrow at 2:00 o'clock."
"Nice, a party I will be there," Eric says as he walks by our table
"You know that our families can visit tomorrow right?" I say still hoping that Caleb will show up.
"Yes if any family members come they have to play too." But, that is when I realize that if Caleb comes I am going to have to tell him about me a Tobias.
"Wait, What is Candor or Dauntless?"
"It is a game of Truth or Dare. But if you don't answer the truth or complete the dare you take off on an article of clothing."
"That does sound fun"
I find that Tobias's is not in bed when I wake up late at 12:00. I get dressed nice. I put on a lace cami, with a dress that shows off my raven tattoo I then add a pair of shorts with fishnet tights. I am hoping that if I have to all then dare that I don't want. That I am ready for them. I run into the bathroom and go for light makeup. I head down to the pit to see if Caleb is there. But, I thought it better if he meets Tobias with me so I grab him for moral support. I also want to show him off. I get down to the pit not expecting to see anyone. But right away I see Caleb and he doesn't seem happy. Is it Tobias or me that he is upset at. Maybe that is his face now.
"Hi, Caleb how are you doing."
"Ok, who is this," he asked with anger in his tone.
"Oh, Right, this is Four..." I don't want to tell him yet so I just say.
"You want to play a game?"
"Sure" He follows us to Zeke apartment. we get there at 2:00 on the dot.
"Who is this?" Zeke asks
"This is my brother Caleb" I replied
"Beatrice, who is this? What are we doing here?"
"We are here to play a game. This is Zeke he is a friend?"
"Then who is Four?" I let Tobias go inside as I talk to Caleb. The door shut he has an upset tone to his voice.
"What type of game is this? Who is Four? Is that a Tattoo? How many?"
"This is Candor or Dauntless, Four is my boyfriend, and, Yes, I have three."
"Boyfriend, and three? What are they of?"
"Yes, Boyfriend everyone just found out. I have three ravens on my collarbone, I have a Dauntless and an Abnegation symbol on my shoulders. We should go in so we can play?"
"Wait, Beatrice How could you not tell me? How long has this been going on."
" A month or so we started to date during the second and third stage of initiation."
"I want to talk to both of you so can you get him, please?"
"Fine, but nothing embarrassing. Ok"
"Ok" I open the door.
"Four" he comes to the door and says,
"Hey the game is going to start you don't want to miss it do you?"
"No, I tell him we need to go in we can talk about this after ok"
"ok" I open to door and everyone is in a circle on the floor Zeke, Uriah, Christina, Will, Shauna, Marlene, Lynn, Eric, Tobias. I run and sit down next to Tobias and give him a small kiss on the lips.
"Everyone this is my brother Caleb. Caleb this is Zeke, Uriah, Christina, Will, Shauna, Marlene, Lynn, Eric. You can sit down." he sits down next to me he does not look a Tobias.
