TRIS' POV
I grab the sheets of my bed, pulling, tugging, and screaming until I wake up from my nightmare. I dreamt of failing out of dauntless initiation, and having to leave Four behind forever. Christina rushes in almost immediately after I wake up.
Christina brushes back my hair, "Hey what's wrong", she asks.
"Nothing, it was nothing" I nervously reply. I try to be a good liar but Christina still has a little bit of Candor in her, so she knows I'm lying.
Christina stands up, brushes back my hair once more and leaves without saying another word. One of my favorite things about Christina is that she knows to stop asking questions when I am noticeably upset.
I wake up in the morning, ready for another day of dauntless training. I grab a muffin on my way to the Fear Landscaping room. When I arrive Four is there waiting for me.
"You're late you know", Four says. His eyes are still a little bloodshot and puffy. I can tell he had too much to drink last night.
"Sorry I didn't get much sleep last night" I reply with a yawn escaping my mouth.
Four exhales loudly, so I know he is going to be easily agitated today. I sit in the chair, waiting for Four to inject me with the serum; once he does I go through my typical fears. This is my final fear landscape. I am done within a few minutes.
"The rankings will be posted tomorrow morning, but just so you know you're in first" Four says.
I stand up and walk out of the room quickly before Four asks me a question, but I am too late.
"Tris wait!" Four says just as I touch the door knob.
I turn around hoping he will just let me go, but he asks me if he can talk to me for a minute. Trying not to be rude I sit back down in the chair and listen to what he has to say.
"Tris I am so sorry about yesterday I didn't mean to embarrass you," he says," I just didn't feel like we should be together until after initiation is over, I don't want people to think that you cheated to claim your spot as a member of Dauntless."
I look up from the floor and yell at him, "You want to be with me too, so why do you act like I am the only who wants to be a couple."
The words slip out of my mouth like lava. I can tell he is upset now.
"I do want to be with you, but I didn't realize that defending you from people saying harsh things about our relationship was a bad thing. Plus last night you seemed to be the one who really wanted to make out." Four retorts, just as a smile begins to form on his face. He suddenly stops smiling when he sees the cold stare that I give him. I stand up and begin to leave. Just as I walk out I yell "I knew it was a bad idea to like you, I never want to see you again!" I gasp and Four drops his head to look at the floor. The second I say those words I rush out knowing that I didn't mean what I had just said.
It is night now; I was the last person to go in for their fear landscape. I sit down against the wall in a dark, empty hallway; I quickly begin to cry at the feeling that Four may never love me again. I stand up and wipe my tears away, I turn the corner and everything goes black.
