A/N Thanku all for reading and reviewing, not much reviews but i am glad that at least i got them. I am so sorry for the late update and i am going to update my story "to fill the emptiness" soon...and also i hate the way Peeta is shown to be weak in the novel that's why in my stories Peeta is going to be strong with great features. Also Four is going to be as strong and handsome as described in the novel, can't make more handsome and strong than described in the novel moreover i don't want to change Tris' *cough* my *cough* Tobias/Four. I don't own the hunger games and Divergent. I know i suck in writing story but be patient, i'll try my best to improve...
Chapter 3
Four's POV
As we approach the lake, Tris starts getting excited, I am not sure but she looks like. There is nothing to be excited about; I don't feel safe about this 'Panem' thing but I won't let them do anything horrible to us. That also includes me and Tris.
They cannot break us apart like Tris said; it kind of hit me in a bad way when I felt as if what she said meant "we are not together anymore" although I know that was not what she meant.
This whole thing has just messed us up. We don't get any time to be together. Also I know that this 'meeting' won't get over soon and if even if it does, these people are not likely to go home soon. They are surely up to something. Why would anyone like to mix up with us? Our world is like a junk now, everything misplaced.
We can hardly differentiate Dauntless and Amity compounds, the thought makes me shudder. We are not so good with Amity since the beginning, they just are not worthy of our friendship or even our interaction or kindness.
"Ah, finally the dauntless are here." The Candor leader says. After the war, most of the faction leaders changed, including me and Marcus. Well Marcus deserved it well. "Let's begin the meeting, shall we?" he says but then his eyes shift from me to Tris. This is not good. "I assume we have an extra participant."
"She is with me." I say before it gets worst. But it settles down, the leaders nod and returns their gaze towards the approaching Panem people. I could feel Tris sigh with relief…or maybe frustration? Uh-oh
"Are you ok? Seems like…" I say but she cuts me off.
"I am angry? Yes I am. I told you I should not have come." she scowls at me, although it was just a whisper, it hit me hard.
"Nothing went wrong, right? He just asked a question and I answered back. Everything went well" I whisper back.
"We welcome you to our world. I hope you will have no problem in co-operating with us." the abnegation leader, I think his name is Lucas, says to the unknown two people who now stand just in front of us.
"Here we go Tris" I whisper and she seems to hear me because she nods slightly and squeezes my hand. She is nervous and so am I.
"Yes, we also hope that we are going to have a good time here." the girl, Katniss says. Good time? Are they on a holiday? Maybe it's the way of meeting someone in Panem, whatever it is. I don't care.
One by one all the faction leaders shake hands with them and soon it's my and Tris's turn. I step forth and take Katniss's offered hand in mine and shake them lightly. Her features are soft yet tough. She has a rough but sweet smile, she has a tough body and her hand feels warm in mine. She has dark and brownish black hair. She is not gorgeous but she is pretty. Her other hand is tightly folded with the other guy, Peeta. They seem to be together.
I move towards Peeta and shake his hand lightly but strongly. His hand is just as warm as Katniss's. He has blue deep eyes just like mine. Though he does not seem to be strong but he is handsome and tough, like Katniss. He has sharp features and blonde hair. "Four", I tell my name like others do theirs. They nod and I move away so that Tris can interact with them.
She lightly shakes her hand with Katniss and tells her name then she goes ahead for Peeta and slowly takes his hand and tells her name lightly, almost a whisper and he nods. They both don't pull themselves apart for a few seconds; they just stare at one another as if they are looking for something in each others' eyes. Tris what are you doing, move away from him. I shout at her in my thoughts, hoping that she'll hear me but she doesn't and they continue examining each other.
That makes anger bubble inside me. Something about their hands tangled doesn't feel good to me. Tris joins me again and smiles gently at me but her eyes still focus on Peeta. What the hell in him makes her watch him? He's not so handsome or attracting, according to me. He seems to be strong with good features, though but he won't ever be able to defeat me in a fight. The other girl, Katniss seems to share the same thought like mine as she tries to break their stare by suddenly taking his hand and whispering something to him that turns his attention to her and they get lost in a small conversation. Good for me, I smile at my thought.
"Are we here just to welcome them or are we going to discuss anything too?" Tris asks. I turn my gaze to her and notice that she is not looking at them anymore. Maybe I was wrong about her being interested in Peeta. Or maybe I wasn't Instead of going deeper into my thoughts I look for an answer. I don't know either.
"I don't know. We were not sure about them so we don't have any idea about their intentions so we can't risk it by straight away taking them to the compounds. That might turn out to be bad." I say. She understands and to ease her tension about them I take her hand in mine and she smiles at me.
I could feel the newcomers' eyes on us and that's good. They should know that I and Tris are together and they can't get between us, even if they prove to be important for us. Tris is mine, as long as we live.
After a while we reach to the conclusion that until next morning Katniss and Peeta will stay with us in the dauntless compound. I couldn't resist because I am supposed to be kind towards them. Before they came we all, the faction leaders, had a small talk about being nice to them, whatever happens we are not supposed to hurt them in anyway. Great now I have to be kind to that guy, Peeta too.
OK…how hard can it be? I just don't have to go in front of them unless needed and I won't let Tris go near them too. That's what I'll do, nice plan Four! I think to myself. Everything will be normal soon…I hope so.
