The doctors kept Cissa in the infirmary for a week and it's been a week since then. Becca and Nix kept her under house arrest. They finally agreed to let me see Cissa when I asked this morning. I rushed to Cissa's when they said that.
Now I was just outside her apartment. "Cissa how have you been?" I asked upon coming in and I saw her lay on the bed like a dead person.
"Better than I was two weeks ago. I've been cleared by a doctor but Becca still won't let me go anywhere," she said sitting up.
"That's good. I wish there was something I could do," I said.
"There is, come and lay with me," Cissa said flipping up the blanket and patting next to her.
"Okay, but if Becca kills me it was your doing," I said moving under the blanket scooting closer to Cissa. I put her head to my chest and ran my fingers through Cissa's hair. "I wish I could sing to you," I said.
"Why?" Cissa asked. "Why do you want to sing for me?"
"Because when you sang it sounded so angelic. I wish I could do the same for you," I said looking down at Cissa while brushing a strand hair out of her face.
"You don't need to sing for me," she said. "You're here that's all I'll ever need. You don't need to sing for me to love you because I already do."
"There are so many reasons I love you," I said. "You're smart, brave, selfless, and have a badass attitude along with killer looks."
"Do you want to know why I love you?" Cissa asked. I nodded. "You're a dauntless prodigy, selfless, smart, and have wicked good looks."
"I love you," I said pulling her closer to me.
"I love you, too," Cissa said snuggling her head to my heart.
"I love you, three."
"I love you, four," Cissa said.
"I know," I said giving Cissa little smirk.
"Hey there is something you guys need to see," Zeke said bursting into the room. I'd forgot to lock the door when I came in. "Am I interrupting something?"
"No, Cissa just asked if I would lay with her and I agreed to," I said untangling myself from the blanket.
"Why what happened," Cissa asked.
"Someone came back from the dead," he said giving me a swift glance.
"Who," I asked.
"My brother," Zeke replied.
"Your brother?" I asked. Zeke nodded. "Then why are we standing here?" Zeke looked at Cissa.
"I can walk," Cissa said.
"Yeah, but if Becca sees you walking she'll murder me," I said picking Cissa up bridal style. "Okay?"
"Okay," Cissa said as I followed Zeke out the door. "Where are we going?"
"The cafeteria, Uriah was found in the cafeteria," Zeke said. I gave him a questioning look. "Don't ask why my brother was found in the cafeteria. I don't know, " Zeke said defensively.
"I don't doubt that. I'm just wondering how he made it there without being seen," I wondered.
"He always joked that he was a ninja. I guess he wanted to prove himself," Zeke said.
"How are you able to joke around with something as serious as this is going on," Cissa snapped.
"It's all part of the job," Zeke said entering the cafeteria.
I noticed a lot of commotion when I entered the cafeteria. "Christina do you know what's going on?" I asked.
"I don't know, Tori, but I think it has something to do with Uriah," Christina said.
After I came back to Dauntless everyone explained more and told me who died in the war. "That makes more sense," I said.
"Yeah I wish I knew what was going on," Christina said.
"Maybe Zeke will know what's going on," I said pointing to Zeke and Four who was holding Cissa bridal style.
"What's going on," Christina asked.
"My brother is alive and some how manage to get to the cafeteria before being spotted," Zeke said.
"How did he manage that?" Christina asked.
"Honestly I don't know," Zeke said.
"Do you think he went through the back hallways," Cissa asked. She looked like she was holding back like she knew something she shouldn't.
Before anyone could answer a voice said, "Hey bro how have you been." We all turned around to see Uriah.
Zeke ran straight to his brother. "You're alive," He said.
"Yeah I wouldn't be standing here otherwise smartass," Uriah said.
"Good to know that thing haven't changed," Christina said.
"How did you get here?" I asked.
"Good to know I wasn't the only one wondering that," Cissa said looking down at the floor.
"I don't know," Uriah said. "But I do remember being right outside the cafeteria."
"That's weird," Cissa said.
"Do I know you because you look a lot like my friend Tris," Uriah said studying Cissa.
"Call me Cissa," she said. " And if you try and make a move on me. I will find you and I will kick your sorry ass." We all laugh at Cissa putting Uriah in his place.
"Looks like Four already has you so I know you're off limits, " Uriah said motioning to Four who had his arm around Cissa.
"Cissa can I talk to you for a moment in the hall?" I asked.
"Sure I don't think that anyone will miss me too much," She said looking at Becca and Nix who had appeared in the middle of our conversation.
I lead Cissa through a maze of corridors to one without cameras. "Tris you're horrible at staying in character," I said.
"I don't know what you're talking about," she said looking down.
"You can't even look at me when you're denying me," I said.
"Fine I am Tris," she said. "If you want proof then here's your proof." Tris said taking a makeup removing wipe out of her pocket and she wiped across her collarbone. Her ravens started to appear. "And am I really that bad of an actress?"
"No," a voice said coming out of nowhere. "We just know you to well." Tris and I turned around to see Uriah smirking at Tris.
