Tobias' POV
I rush to Tris' side. She is knelt over the toilet, for the 3rd time in one night. I run my hand over the top of her back and with my other hand I pull her hair back out the way. When she has finished I fetch her a glass of water. She leans back against the wall.
"I'm going to have a shower and then go to the training room." She says and she isn't up to arguing and neither am I. I nod my head but the look on my face must say it all. "I don't want to argue Tobias." I nod again and let her shower.
We walk down to breakfast and I make sure she eats something. I can see the sadness in her eyes. Her father. We walk into the training room and she sits down on the table and I line the initiates up. "I understand you have been wondering why the initiation has been taking so long. It's because it's a new rules. Longer initiation means you have longer to become stronger in the aspects. I know we have finally got you to past the second and third stage but now we are going to work on stage one again so we have maximum fitness." I say pacing up and down the line of initiates. I pair them up and they get in the ring and fight until one of them concedes.
I walk over to Tris. "How's your sickness?" I ask and she smiles. "My breakfast is staying down for the moment." She says and takes my hand. I squeeze hers. "I haven't had the chance to ask, how did the appointment go the other day?" I ask wondering.
"I am about 3 weeks in and it all looks good. I have a scan at home that I can show you. I have made an appointment for three weeks time." She says sounding a little happier. "When's the last day of their initiation?" She asks sounding hopeful.
"Tomorrow, so then you won't have to do any strenuous jobs while you're pregnant." I say sounding a little relieved. I work in the control room when I am not training initiates and Tris is a tattoo artist. She has done many different jobs in the time she isn't training initiates, however this one is her favorite because she can be with Tori. Plus, she gets to stab people with needles.
Tris' POV
I watch as Tobias conducts the fights. I suddenly feel a hand on my shoulder. I turn round to look at the person. Thomas.
"So, how come you haven't been in training the past few days, huh?" He says with a curl in his lip.
"I don't have to discuss my private life with you." I say looking away from him to watch the current fight. Marvin and Joannah.
"Don't be do boring, come on why were you off?" He grins. "Don't tell me you left the compound to go and see you Abnegation family? How could you go there? Boring bastards." Thomas whispers. I jump into action. I push him up to a wall and I grab a knife on my way. I hold the knife up to his throat. The fight stops and I feel everyones eyes on me. I hear Tobias saying "stop" but I don't.
"What do you think gives you the right to talk to me like that? Because I'm a girl? Because I'm small? Because I was originally from Abnegation? How dare you say things about my family. I might not like Abnegation and the way the live but they are my family, and if you ever say anything about them again I swear to go I will kill you." I push the knife forward more, I stop just because it pierces his skin. I let him go and he pushes himself off the wall. I stick my foot out in front of him and he trips and falls to the ground. Tobias stands in his way.
"I suggest you do as she says, one more step out of line and you will be factionless. How the hell you aren't already is another matter entirely." Tobias says in a quiet voice. Thomas is then let past and he runs out the training room. "I suggest you all go too and make sure you don't step out of line." He says. He walks over to me. He wraps his arms around me and I lean my head in onto his chest. I don't cry. I just stand there in silence. I don't know what to say. I swear to God I will kill him. I would. I don't want to be a murderer though.
