A/N- Hey my wonderful readers! How are you guys? I'm ecstatic. 106 FREAKING REVIEWS! I LOVE YOU GUYS! KEEP GOING PLEASE! Also, I restarted the poll on my page about my one-shots since I've done a couple sequels and I need new opinions. Anyways, next chapter :)
After leaving Will's apartment, I walk the half hallway to my own.
I remember wondering who my real friends were; Will and Christina or Uriah, Lynn and Marlene. I now realize that it's okay to have different friends for different things. Christina is my best friend who I can tell anything and everything to, except my Divergence of course, but that's something only Tori and... Four knows. Will... he's my other best friend, but I never really felt like he was there for me. Except for after the chasm incident and then there was earlier. I'll probably have to return his phone soon. But he came to Four's room knowing I would be there. I guess saying he's my friend doesn't really cut it for us anymore. Lynn... well Lynn is Lynn and there is nothing anyone can do about it, but I know who to go to if I ever need a sarcastic comment. Marlene was always nice to me, but I haven't seen her in a while and I remember thinking that she liked Uriah so I'm not sure how she'll feel about me and Uriah being... 'together'. Uriah... I smile just thinking about him. He's sweet and funny and just so... him.
I walk into my room and I decide that I'm not going to be able to sleep. Instead, I change out of my clothes and take a shower. I feel... grubby after everything that's happened today, like I need to wash the day away. Not everything though. I still need to visit Uriah and I won't forget what happened between us and what happened between me and Four. I will never be able to forget that.
Once I feel clean enough I pull on a pair of black skinny jeans and my tight black shirt that shows off my raven tattoos and the Dauntless symbol, but hides the Abnegation one. I look in the mirror and put a little eyeliner on to try to hide the fact that I've been crying.
When I decide that I look good enough, I walk towards the door and am surprised when someone knocks. "Coming!" I call before I reach over and open the door.
I feel my eyes go wide and I gasp when I see the person standing in the doorway. I'm about to close the door on him when he speaks up."Pl-please Tris. Just let me explain."
I decide that I can let him talk but if something happens I can slam the door on him. "Fine. But make it quick Four." I hiss at him.
He flinches a bit when I call him Four, but he looks up into my eyes and I see that his are rimmed with red and his cheeks are all splotchy. He's been crying. I've never seen him like this before. And I can't find it in myself to care.
"Look Tris," His hand comes up as if to touch me, but I cringe away the moment he lifts it. He drops his hand again and he looks hurt. He should after what he did. "Tris. I-I'm so sorry. I don't know what came over me. I just... I was losing my girlfriend to another guy. I was desperate!" He cries, practically begging for me to understand.
I'm taken back to that day when Al did the same, begging me to forgive him for what he did to me. I thought about the Abnegation girl who would've forgiven him, but I'm Dauntless now. That Abnegation girl left the moment I decided that I was selfish. That I was brave.
"Yes, you sure were desperate Four." I tell the boy in front of me before I duck under his arm closing the door behind me before setting off towards the hospital.
I get there rather quickly and the nurse up front is quick to give me Uriah's room number and so I head over to it but stop in front of the door with my hand on the doorknob. The last time I saw Uriah, he was bloody and unconscious lying on the floor of his apartment. I'm afraid of what he'll look like now. Will he have a bunch of tubes sticking out of his arms? Will his injuries look worse because he's all cleaned up?
I take a deep breath. There's only one way to find out, and I didn't come here for nothing. With those thoughts in mind, I push the door open and walk in.
The first thing I notice is the fact that he's asleep, so I close the door quietly, making sure not to wake him up. I go over and sit down on the chair beside him and I take this moment to really look at him. He's tall and now that I'm actually looking at him, he really is quite handsome. With his bronze skin, and shaggy dark hair and chocolate brown eyes. Closing my eyes, I can see his nearly perpetual smile that shines white in contrast to his dark skin. From this angle, I can just see the edge of his snake tattoo curling around his ear.
"I know that I'm gorgeous, but are you really just going to sit there and stare?" His voice asks before his head turns to look at me and those beautiful eyes open to stare right at me with their usual humour still shining after all that's happened.
After a moment, the surprise of him talking to me goes away and what he said rings in my ears and I laugh a bit. "Well, I was only going to do that if you were going to stay asleep."
He sighs. "I wasn't asleep." I'm guessing I look pretty confused because he chuckles before explaining. "I was awake, but when I heard the door open, I pretended that I was asleep because I wasn't sure who you were. I've been getting a lot of visitors. It's probably because of my amazingness." He tells me smiling at me.
I laugh again. It's amazing how this boy can make me smile and laugh even when he's been so hurt, and I have been too. "How are you feeling?" I ask him.
He sighs before closing his eyes and turning his head to stare at the ceiling again. "I feel like the Dauntless decided to have a party on my chest."
I look at him and his easy smile has almost faded and I just can't believe this. Uriah never did anything to deserve this.
"What happened while you were with Four?" He asks me after a moment.
"Huh?" I ask stupidly.
He turns his head again to face me. "What happened while I was here and you went to talk to Four?" He asks me again. I can see the sadness in his eyes and I know that me telling him this would mean a lot to him. So I tell him exactly what I told Will and Christina. When I tell him what Four did, he frowns but it quickly turns into a grin when I tell him that I bit Four's tongue. When I'm done, I just sit there while Uriah looks at me with a small smile.
"I know that I'm gorgeous, but are you really just going to sit there and stare?" I ask him repeating the words he said to me earlier while rolling my eyes.
His small smile turns into a huge grin and he brings his hand up to my cheek. "Well you are." He says and I start to shake my head. "It's true!" He says trying to convince me. I'm not. I'm not even pretty. I wish people would stop trying to tell me I am.
"Whatever. You can say that, but I'm not." I tell him and he frowns again.
"You shouldn't say that about yourself." He tells me.
I shake my head and stand up and his hand falls away from my face. He looks hurt, but only momentarily before I bend down and kiss him.
I feel him smile into the kiss before we both hear the door open. I turn around to see a shocked Marlene standing there. "Oh. I'm sorry." She says quickly before shutting the door. I can faintly hear her fast footsteps retreating from us; I think she may be running.
I turn to Uriah and I see that he has a strange look on his face. "Everything okay?" I ask him. Did I do the wrong thing by kissing him? I didn't think so since he was smiling and kissing me back but...
He looks at me again and the weird look is gone, replaced by his usual smile, and it seems like there was never anything but that beautiful smile on his face. But I'm sure I saw something... "Totally. I just wish we weren't always getting interrupted."
I laugh at that and bend down again to give him a quick kiss. When I pull away I see he's giving me a puppy dog look that makes me laugh some more. "I have to get going, but I'll see you tomorrow, okay?"
He sighs overly dramatically. "Fine! Let's just hope I don't wither away!"
I laugh again and kiss his forehead before leaving the room.
I head back to my room and jump down onto the bed. Today has been a long day and I fall asleep almost instantly.
A/N- Ta da! There we go! Can you believe that all these chapters take place in one day? Anyways, a lot of you got mad when Four became 'the bad guy' so I used bassethound1021's idea for Four going to talk to Tris. Don't go away, there will be plenty more chapters, I have a couple really good ideas! :) Or at least I think they're good... Anyways, LOVE YA, THANKS FOR THE 106 REVIEWS, BYE-BYE!
