You and I
Chapter 25: Going Home
A week later and Tobias is finally allowed home. In fact, we are going home right now. Tara is walking in the middle of us, holding our hands. My spare hand is on my nineteen weeks' pregnancy bump. Tobias' spare hand is holding onto his crutch which is to help keep him upright when he walks. He's still recovering, and in a lot of pain, but he's getting there. He's through the worst now.
Luckily Evelyn hasn't done anything over the past week. She hasn't sent any more people to hurt us.
I say that now, but when we get to our apartment, there she is. Sitting on the sofa. Her right leg over her left. Smiling slyly at us. We all look at her, shocked.
"Tobias, Tara. It's good to see you again. Who's this pregnant woman?"
"This is my wife, Tris." Tobias tells her quietly, quiet isn't good with Tobias.
"She's your wife. Oh, Tobias. You could do so much better than her."
"Shut up. She is the best person I have ever met, and I love her. Now get out of our apartment."
"Not until you and your sister come to the Factionless with me, forever."
"I'm not leaving Dauntless, my friends, or Tris and my baby. This is my home and I would never come to live with you."
"Why not?"
"Because you left me. You abandoned me so I could get beaten by Marcus on my own. You're a coward. I needed you and you weren't there for me. I don't need you now. I'm fine here. In fact, I love my life now. And Tara can't come with you because we adopted her, we're her legal guardians now so you have no right to her."
"You what?"
"You were dying. It was either adopt her or have her sent back to the Factionless because she wouldn't have been a member of Dauntless. You gave her to us, maybe you should have thought about that before you sent her here."
"But I'm not dying anymore. I want her back, and I want you back as well. But I don't want your wife or child. They can stay here."
"I'm never going to leave them. I'm not the person who abandons the people they love, wait, you didn't love me and neither did Marcus."
"I do love you…"
"Why did you leave me then? You could have taken me with you. You could have saved me. You could have stayed and helped me."
"Marcus was going to kill me. I had to go."
"And leave your only son with someone who abuses people? Just go."
"No. we're staying and that is final. Now go before I call security."
"You wouldn't dare."
"Oh, I would."
He moves his hand so his finger is over the button on the wall that calls security if needed. Evelyn looks shocked but she stands and makes her way over to us, to me.
"This is all your fault." She says before punching me and pushing me to the floor. She kicks me in the stomach and the pain is unbearable. I hear Tobias shout my name as he pushes the security button. Tara screams. I just cry and hold my belly.
Three security men come and two of them take Evelyn away, Tobias tells the other one to take me to the infirmary. He picks me up and takes me, Tobias and Tara following behind.
I just cry as my whole world crumbles in front of me.
Please don't let my baby die.
That's the last thought I have before I'm drowned in a sea of black.
Hey Ravens, I am so sorry for the wait but I have been so busy lately, and I started back at college so I have had a lot of homework to do and other things. I'm also trying to get a job. So I have had an interview and stuff. But I will try to make a schedule that allows me to write some more.
I will update again when I can.
Please review!
Sorry for the short chapter.
