Chapter 10 Tris POV

I start to panic.

It's only a day.

One day.

Tobias pulls me into an embrace, wrapping his strong arms around my waist, happiness and enjoyment overloads him. Frantically, he lifts me up while spinning me around delicately. I wrap my legs around his waist so I don't slip. He chuckles and kisses me passionately on the lips. His hands drape down my back, slowly moving up gently, exploring my body. I pull Tobias in for a fierce kiss, energy and desire exploding through like a volcano at the pit of my stomach. He slides his masculine hands up onto my hips at the rim of my shirt. Continuing to kiss eagerly, passionately and heatedly for what seems like years we ignore the outside world and get lost in each other's eyes.

I wake up in a daze.

Confusion surrounds me but quickly goes as I realize where I am.

Looking out the door-less train I chuckle at the fact that I was dreaming about reuniting with Tobias when it's only been less than two hours since I have seen him. As my hair blows in the wind, I stare into nothingness, Tobias occupies my thoughts, it's barely been 120 minutes but I miss him dearly. The sound of the train slowing down and the screech or the brakes brings me to reality; I open my eyes thoroughly and run my hands through my hair. Then the train comes to an abrupt halt which makes me lose my balance. I stand up as I realise that the train is still in the middle of nowhere, although I can see Abnegation in the distance I am too far away to walk. Suddenly I hear a small noise, and it feels like I am being watched. I hear a distinct noise again and then the train starts moving again. I shake the feeling of being followed off like you brush a fly away.

The trains never stop.

That was odd.

Once I reach Abnegation, rapidly, the train starts to slow down enough for me to be able to jump. I stand near the edge of the empty, lifeless metal train and inhale breathing in the cold natural air. Adrenaline pumping as it always does, I exhale and jump off, landing perfectly on my feet.

Being on Abnegation territory makes excitement rush through me, yet makes me long for Dauntless; the loudness and the freedom. It is eerily quiet here, I feel like a fish out of water in my black tight clothes, fortunately they are not showing most of my tattoos- my parents would certainly disapprove. I walk down the street, gazing at the side of the plain and square looking houses, a few people roam the streets but that is it. The people don't make eye contact with me; they just keep their heads down. I don't realise how quiet this place is until now. I turn the corner and I find my old house; my parents' house.

I pause in my steps.

All of a sudden, nerves engulf me. What if my parents don't like who I have become? I walk slowly to the door and knock nervously, my hands shaking. I hear people on the other side walking towards the door.

'Be brave Tris,' Tobias' words echo throughout my mind.

'Beatrice!' My father shouts excitedly with a smile on his face. It is the first time I have seen him since I left. His changes aren't noticeable as mine.

'Father! I have missed you!' I give him a hug and he seems taken back at first then hugs me awkwardly.

'How are you?' He asks me calmly. I have missed his calmness.

'I am fine, how is mother?' I respond curiously and worryingly. He sighs and looks down.

'She will be okay, she is resting upstairs she was able to come home. The doctors agreed she would prefer to be home. Caleb is in the kitchen.'

'Thank you,' I say and I walk into the Kitchen like I have lived here every single day of my life. Just as I expected, there stands my annoying brother Caleb. 'Caleb.'

'Tris,' he pauses and glares at me then smirks. 'What, no Four this time?'

'Who is Four?' My dad asks before I can speak. He looks quite curious for an Abnegation man.

'Some guy she was making out with!' Caleb exclaims. My father calm demeanour rapidly changes, he looks frustrated and anger is evident on his face.

'He was not a random guy! He is my boyfriend Caleb!' I burst out strongly.

'You are too young to have a boyfriend!' Caleb screams

'It's none of your business,' I say, frustration evident in my strong voice.

'Caleb please drop it, Beatrice I will take you to your room,' my father says disapprovingly.

Rapidly I run upstairs, my father close on my heels. I slowly enter my old room, it hasn't changed at all, and loneliness and boringness occupies the room. Old memories start flooding into my mind. I place my black bag on the floor and turn and face my father, who is now standing at my door, sadness creeping over his face at the realisation that he has no longer any control over me. I smile at him.

'Dad, I have an Ambassador meeting at 10 o'clock in the morning tomorrow.' I tell him with authority in my voice.

'You are an Ambassador?' He asks smiling proudly but nevertheless weakly. Seeing him proud brings joy to me.

'Yes I ranked first in my initiation and chose the roll of Ambassador.'

'Wow well done!' He says smiling weakly. He pauses and silence erupts in the room. A nice silence though. He hears a distinct noise in another room and goes and checks on my mother. He returns momentarily, smiling.

'Darling, Mum is waking up now; she is wishing to see you.' He whispers calmly. I enter again a trance of thoughts, about how I look and if she will think I am still her daughter. Will she despise me?

Without knowing it, I am suddenly standing silently behind the door to my parent's bedroom where my mother is resting. I am terrified of how she will look like or how she will expect me to react. I look behind me where I see my father smiling demanding with his mind to go in. I do as I am silently told. I inhale, exhale slowly look around one more time to my father then turn the doorknob. The door creaks open and I walk reluctantly in.

Her sleeping silhouette lies on her bed.

My mother.

I walk into a simple room; I never really went in here a lot when I lived here. A double bed with a nightstand and a small cupboard lies within the room. I don't scan the room for extra detail because my mother's eyes flutter open and she stares beautifully at me. I step forward trying to take in the fact that my mother has been hurt in a way I could not have imagined. She has been hurt apparently on purpose.

'Beatrice,' she whispers, she lifts her hand to beckon me over, and she cringes in pain. I shoot past everything in the room and I stand in front of her.

'It's going to be alright mother,' I say as I hold her hand. She has a breathing tube in her nose which connects to medical equipment to the left of her bed. I notice she has to breathe deeper to talk normally. She isn't severely damaged. I have seen worst, being Dauntless, but this is my mother, I love her.

'Don't worry about me Beatrice!' I let out a week laugh, my mother: always selfless.

'How are you in Dauntless?' she asks not very audible but loud enough for me to hear. I get on my knees on the hard floor so I am closer to her.

'Life in Dauntless is fantastic! I ranked first in my initiation and now I am an ambassador. I have made so many great friends and now I even have… a boyfriend.' I whisper the last part so quietly. Thankfully, I don't think she hears it.

'Wow you ranked first! That is fantastic dear! What was that? A boyfriend?' She smiles at me, her voice always calm. I guess I was wrong about her not hearing me.

'What is his name? What is he like?' She asks.

'I didn't think the Abnegation were curious about anything.'

'We're not, but I am your mother,' she says fierce fully.

'Too shay,' I laugh. 'His name is Four, he is extremely handsome and strong willed but he has a kind heart. I think you would like him.'

'Four? Haven't I heard of that name before?' She chuckles slightly.

'No!' I say a little too strongly.

'If you say so dear.' She says smiling at me. 'I must rest now, I am sorry.'

'Ok, I will let you rest. I love you.'

'I love you too Beatrice.'

'And Mum?'

'Yes?' she says calmly.

'It's Tris now.'

'See you soon Tris,' she smiles and then closes her eyes and slowly looking back one more time I walk towards the door and turn the handle. We didn't even talk about her injuries we were talking about me. Even when she is injured she is selfless. Typical.

'And Mum?' My daughter asks.

'Yes?' I ask pleasantly.

'It's Tris now,' I smile. It suits her, sounds more Dauntless.

'See you soon Tris,' I say and she slowly reaches for the door handle.

Happiness overloads me, I am so glad Tris has settled into Dauntless and I am even more ecstatic that she has ranked first. I was always worried when she transferred to Dauntless; I always believed she would off been found out. I have always suspected she was Divergent.

If anything happened to her I would be outraged and I wouldn't want to live to see another day without my daughter. The fact that she has made friends must mean she loves Dauntless, I am so thrilled for her.

I search my brain for a man named Four. Of course, Four is the very handsome young man who trained my daughter. I smile to myself she likes him, he likes her. I hope they will be happy together. I recognised Four as soon as I saw him on visitor's day, a person can change but their eyes always stay the same. I know he was Marcus Eaton son. But the real question is: does Tris? If she does not then that is not a healthy relationship, I will not tell her though that would be selfish. I might be brave since I was Dauntless but I until my last dying breath leaves my body I will never be selfish.

Sometimes I think the world would be easier if people were less selfish.

Maybe it still can be.

PAGEBREAK

Tobias POV

Seeing Tris disappear into the distance on the train makes me feel lost, I am lonely without her. I have lost a part of myself. The day is finally coming to an end as glance outside, taking in the fiery orb sinking below the surface, rags of light trying to forcefully stay in the atmosphere. Six lonely long hours have passed since I sorrowfully departed from Tris and now I feel worst then ever when I realized that I should have finished my work an hour ago. I reluctantly pack up my things and return to my empty apartment. As I reach my apartment, I forcefully jab my keys into the keyhole and unlock my door. The cold air make shudders trickle down my back. I switch on the light without knowing and walk towards the bathroom, entering a trance of thoughts. I am swept away as I enter the bathroom as I encounter all her girly things, realizing how much I miss her. It's only a day I think. 24 hours.

Then it comes to me.

It doesn't have to be 24 hours.

I quickly head down to dinner, running out of my apartment down towards the cafeteria and I am met by the gang. They don't make conversation with me knowing I am in 'Four mode' when my other half is not here. They don't bother me and I sit there scarfing down my burger faster than the speed of light, basically inhaling my drink because I have this sudden urge to get back to my room. I swing my masculine leg over the bench say goodbye to my friends and sprint back to my room. Before I get 50 meters from my table, I hear a distant whisper from Zeke as I walk-jog away from them.

'I know Tris is in Abnegation, but don't you think Four is acting odd?' I keep walking but slower my pace, curiosity -that I thought I never had- taking over.

'No, he misses her greatly we should just accept that,' Shauna says. I smile but don't look back instead a keep walking until I am out of ear shot.

Darkness falls around me as I step outside to the train tracks. Overthinking if I should really do what my heart is telling me to do. Somehow from walking out of the cafeteria my feet have brought me to the train tracks. The wind blows my short hair to the side; I hear the distant train quickly approaching as I inhale the fine air.

Now or never I think.

I glaze towards Abnegation in the far distance, only seeing the outline of some buildings. Without knowing about it, my feet and heart push me towards the train and with adenine pumping through my veins and around my body, I jump up onto the moving train with ease. With wind swaying through my hair coldness surrounds me in the empty lifeless dark train. I sit down and drift off into pleasant sleep, my eyes closing tightly. As I fall asleep I picture Tris, her vibrant face, her soft beautiful body laying adjacent to mine, our bodies fitting perfectly together like a jigsaw puzzle. I can't resist the urge to being with her.

As my eyes reopen I come to the realisation that if I don't jump now I will miss the stop to Abnegation. I bounce up startlingly and jump off the train landing perfectly on my feet. I sprint down the hillside and head for the familiar street I know so well. Darkness surrounds me, not a single light excepts a dark dim streetlight allows me to see where I am going. Turning left and walking into a deserted street I shoot past my old house not taking a single glance. To my astonishment I look up, breathing a little heavier from my sprint and find her magnificent silhouette showing in the shadows from a petite light in her room. I stand there for a minute or two, admiring her beauty, then I realise someone might see me. Unnoticeably and silently I climb my way up towards her window with ease using my physical strength.

Once at the top, I observe the convenient slightly ajar window and I stand there crouching down one foot of one ledge the other on a tree, peering into her window. Now that I think of it, If I wasn't her boyfriend I would be a complete creep. She sits on her bed, taking off her shoes and earrings; she looks deep in thought as she turns around not facing me and begins to take her top off. I smirk to myself and enter the open window.

'Need some help with that?' I whisper in a deep voice, gesturing to her top off. She gasps in shock and excitement and runs into my arms. I lift her up and she wraps her strong legs around my waist. While doing so, I press my lips to hers, kissing her deeply, affectionately, longingly. She breaks from the kiss and leans her head towards mine, my hands securing her legs around my waist.

'What are you doing here!' she gasps, excitement coursing through both of us.

'I needed to see you; I tried to ignore it, but the whole day I had this urge just to be with you.' She smiles that gorgeous smile I love and embraces me in a hug; she reaches out for my hand and entwines our hands together.

'I missed you,' she whispers softly against my ear. Her hot breath against my ear makes me shiver. I press my lips to hers once more.

'I missed you more,' I say smiling profoundly.

'I doubt that,' she says chuckling. We laugh and I embrace her into a hug, squeezing her tightly and playfully. Thrillness overloads both of us, as she disappointingly slides down from me, only did I realize now how seductive it is when she slides down from me. As soon as she slides down I pull her into me immediately, placing my head over hers. She looks up and kisses my neck and then snuggles into my neck. I pick her up once more and sit on her bed while she straddles me. My hand laces up her thighs tickling her and she lets out a small laugh.

'Tobias!' She whispers loudly

'Mmmmm?' I respond looking playfully into her eyes.

'Stop tickling me!' She whispers loudly in my ear again and I let out a small chuckle.

'Only if you say you love me,' I whisper back still tickling her with my thumbs.

'I love you Tobias, every part of you: your sexy handsome body, your laugh, your humour, your past, your kindness, your strength, your sexy body.'

I'm speechless, she is mad! I chuckle again.

'You know you said sexy body twice right?' I say.

'Yes I know,' she replies winking, she removes the collar of my shirt ever so slightly and starts kissing there.

You would think we would be immune to door knocks since we are always interrupted but sadly, we are not.

The person knocks again and realisation hits me, it's not Zeke, Uriah, Will or Christina people who would laugh their ass off if they saw me making out with Tris, instead it is someone who would be furious, redder than a beetroot if they see us.

'Beatrice?' a masculine voice calls out. Mr Prior.

'Just changing, one second!' Tris shouts to her dad.

'Crap!' She whispers to me and takes my hand and leads me into her closet. I express a mock pout when I realise I have to stand in the little closet. She gives me a quick peck on the lips and whispers:

'Be quiet,' I nod and close the closet door. I hear her open bedroom door and gesture her father in.

I peer curiously through the small crack in the wardrobe that allows in just enough light for me to see Tris' bedroom. Luckily, the crack isn't noticeable from the outside, although I see Tris staring at me so I slower my breathing, trying to be silent. They sit on her single grey bed.

'Are you okay? I thought you were talking to someone. How is life in Dauntless?' Mr Prior asks

'I'm fine dad, I was just singing I suppose.' She pauses smiling and inhaling at the same time. 'Life in Dauntless is amazing, I ranked first in my initiation and I chose to become an Ambassador. I have made great friends, they mean a lot to me.' The curiosity of the idea if she will mention me pops into my head, but then I quickly dismiss it as from seeing Caleb reaction I don't believe they would like me.

'That is fantastic!' Mr Prior exclaims. He pauses and they share moments of silence together smiling. 'Look I know this is bad timing with mum being sick but,' he pauses. 'You are nearly 17, you have chosen Dauntless and are happy there as far as I can tell. Your mother and I are very proud of you, but we are no longer responsible of you.' I had no idea where this is going. Tris remains mute.

'When you fall in love with someone, you must be careful and safe. I don't want your heartbroken or anything else,' he says not making eye contact. I am suddenly slightly hurt that he would think I would break Tris' heart-but where is this going too?

'What are you purposing?' Tris finally builds the courage to speak up.

'I am purposing that whoever this Four guy is, be careful with him and make sure he doesn't break your heart.' I am in shock. How did that come out? Did Tris say something?

'I will be, Dad there is no way on earth he would hurt me,' I blush and smile to myself, it's true.

'Well I am glad off that, one day I would like to meet him.' Now I am pass feeling shock. What?!

I should just burst out of the room saying 'hey I'm Four, good to see yah!' I obviously don't, but I can feel that embarrassment and surprise linger in the room. Tris's father walks out of the room after kissing her goodnight on her cheek. As soon as I can hear the door handle close I rush out of the closet silently and walk straight into Tris arms. She stands there frozen a little then wraps her arms around me.

'When did you tell your dad about me?' I whisper into her ear.

'I came into the Kitchen today and Caleb said he was surprise you weren't here, and then my dad got all curious.' She pauses 'Come on let's go to bed I'm really tired.'

She kisses me lightly holding my hand, and then pulls me into bed. I take off my shirt and trousers and lie in bed in my boxers. She turns around so that her back is facing me as she slips on her normal night wear- some shorts and my old baggy tee shirt. As she switches from trousers to shorts I can't help but stare at her beauty, she notices and smirks as I did make my staring obvious by accident. I cuddle up to her laying in each other's arms for a long time with only the moon for light. Since the bed is a single we lay closer than ever and I sure as hell don't mind it, I am a teenage boy after all.

My desire grew and I leap onto her-making the bed creak- putting my legs between hers. She kisses me lightly and I delicately put my hand on her face, playing with her hair.

'Tobias…the bed…' She whispers. 'It's creaking.'

With her comment, I roll off her to her side, making the bed creak louder, our bodies adjacent to each other. We both chuckle quietly. She rests her back against my chest and my hand slips around her waist slipping under her shirt, touching her warm sensitive radiating stomach. Butterflies flutter through my stomach. She tangles her legs with mine and I ran my hand slowly, seductively from her knees past her beautiful butt and upwards towards her stomach, stopping there even though I wanted to go further. It sends shivers down her body. I love the effect I have on her, I smirk a little. Her hands reach for mine and I intertwine our hands, playing with them. I smile to myself and kiss her shoulder but slowly then all at once we fall asleep. We listen to each other's gentle and steady breathing, wrapped in each other's arms, closer than we have ever been before.
