So, I know I have not written in a long time. Things have just been really hectic. I also have had a terrible case of writers block. I have just been trying to decide where to go with the story, but I have come up with some new ideas. I am going to put out some new chapters. Maybe two today! A reminder, THERE ARE SPOILERS in my story. I do not own the rights to the characters; they are the property of Veronica Roth. Also if you have any ideas or suggestions, feel free to message me or comment below.

Chapter 4- Awkward

Tris

All I do is stare wide eyed and gaping. As Uriah stares awkwardly at his feet I can't believe he is actually standing here. I don't know what to say or do. All I know is my friend is ok. Uriah is alive…

"Uriah!" without thinking I push Tobias off of me, and scramble to my feet. I ignore the pain in my ribs, only matched by the soreness in my arms and legs and barrel towards him. Behind me I hear Tobias mumbling something. I'm sure he's not happy we were interrupted. Neither am I for the matter, but at this moment I just do not care. Once I am in front of him I can't control myself, and I fling my arms around him crushing him to me.

"Uriah, you're ok?!" My words come out in a mixture, half pure elation and the other half a question. There is nothing but silence, so I release him and step back.

I look up at Uriah and see a strange look on his face I can tell he is extremely uncomfortable. I know we have never really been hugging people. Were dauntless for Christ sake, but he almost died. I do not think a hug should make him this uncomfortable. Then I realize what is. I can't even look at him, as I feel a pink blush creep onto my cheeks.

"Oh Uriah, I know this is awkward, but Four and I… Well we were just…It's not that big of a deal." I wish someone would say something. I have never been so embarrassed. Not when Peter pulled my towel down in front of everyone, or when Eric saw Tobias in my fear landscape.

I look up at Uriah and he is staring at Tobias shifting awkwardly from one foot to the other. Why can he look at Tobias but not me? Why does everyone think of me as a child! I may be small in stature but I have proven myself to be braver and tougher than everyone else!

"Seriously Uriah, get over it! It's not a big de-

Tobias cuts me off "Tris"

"Hold on Four" I continue to scold Uriah "I'm supposed to be the one with intimacy issues anyway! I don't unde-

Once again Tobias cuts me off in the middle of my sentence "Damn it Tris!"

This time I am so stunned by his outburst I whip around to face him. "What?" I shout a little louder than I intended to…and then I see it.

Tobias is holding up my shirt and bra. For a second I feel like I can't breathe. I barely manage to catch the balled up shirt Tobias throws at me, and I hastily put it over my head. I can't believe I have been standing here half dressed. What Uriah walked in on is nothing compared to what he has been looking at for the last two minutes. I hugged him topless! I'm about to run from the room when I hear laughing from behind me.

I turn to face Uriah and he is doubled over in a fit of hysteria, and seeing his beat red face and the tears in his eyes… I can't help but join in. We laugh until we are both in too much pain, and when we finally stop Uriah gabs and hugs me tight. We stay in this embrace for what feels like minutes until I hear a distinct cough from behind us.

"Hey, I don't mean to interrupt…well actually I do. Get your hands off of Tris Uriah!" with that we break apart.

"Oh calm down Four, I'm not interested in taking your girl" I quiet resented the girl comment. I just risked my life to save everyone, and he still thinks he has the right to call me a girl.

Sensing my irritation Uriah quickly corrects home self "Ok Tris, no need for the death look. I mean Woman."

"Thank you" and with that I walk back over to Tobias, who I notice is now fully dressed and sit on the bed.

"How are you feeling Uriah what happened?"

"Well, I had some pretty good doctors and obviously they managed to keep me alive. You could have come and saw me."

I didn't get a chance to respond before Tobias jumped in. "Back off" he says with a stern but playful tone. Well playful for Tobias "She's been in bed for days. She has been to week to get out of bed"

Uriah starts laughing again "Yeah, she's so weak I'm sure you guys have been in bed for days" with that my temper flares, and I hurl a pillow at his head. Of course he ducks causing it to smash directly into the lamp behind him, shattering it all over the floor.

The door suddenly flies open and I wait to be yelled at by a nurse, but it's not. Tobias Jumps to his feet and I see an anger in his eyes I have never seen before.

"Get out." I have never heard Tobias to mad. He doesn't yell but I can feel the intensity and pure hatred in his voice. I take my eyes off Tobias and search for the cause of his anger, and then stop, finally seeing him.

"Hi Caleb."
