Hello again my lovely readers, both those of you who have been here since the beginning and those of you who just started reading. So nothing new with me, hope you all are well. I know, again super short, but I promise they will get longer again soon, I have these next few pre written and they are a bit shortish…
Olivia-Ivy – Thank you lol, I hate to admit it, but I really have fun writing Jeanine sometimes…
Strike OOO – aww, thank you!
SallyEllen – Thank you, I'm glad to hear you like it! And funny you should bring that up, you might just get more than a clue soon.
CassiaStar – What gives you that impression? I'm glad to hear that you ship Gidgic, I do too ;)
pmollymay – He did, I actually have had most of the attack written and planned since before Gabby got captured so… I'm a bit excited.
Guest – You made me smile, so thank you!
Thoreau – Yeah, I love Robert Frost. And your comments! I hope you like what I have planned.
LuRCosta – I'm glad you like it so far, and I will update soon.
Guest – I will!
GirlOnFire13579 – I got your review at work today and I couldn't stop smiling for like an hour. I'm glad you like the story. I am planning for the chapters to get longer again soon, but I have the next few written and I'll warn you they are still a bit short.
I still don't own Divergent, obviously because if I did Eric would not have died.
Chapter 22
Gabby's POV
As soon as we get to the Abnegation sector of town, Four ushers Tris and Peter toward his old house where his mother is apparently waiting for them. I decline the offer to stay with them and set off in search of my friends.
The streets are full of people; a mix of factionless, Abnegation, and loyal Dauntless. I finally catch sight of a familiar face and take off running down the street, "Jessica!"
She turns at the sound of my voice and runs to meet me, "Gabby, I'm never letting you out of my sight again."
I laugh as we start to walk back to the fire where I see Meghan, Jeff, and Justin waiting for us. As soon as we sit down I turn to my only two female friends, "I have so much to tell you."
Meghan immediately picks up on my meaning and turns to her brother, "Just, take Jeff and go get us food. Now!" Justin rolls his eyes but gets up and leaves us alone none the less. As soon as the guys are out of earshot she turns to me, "Spill."
I pull the chain that runs around my neck out, holding it out so that the ring on the end catches the light of the fire. This is followed by a collective gasp and Jessica giving me whiplash as she yanks the ring over so she can get a better view.
"No way!" Meghan squeals, "When?"
"The night we got back to Dauntless from Candor," I reply, slightly flinching away from the anger I am expecting from Jessica.
I am not expecting her to jump on top of me, so when she does it catches me off guard. "Why do you never tell me anything?"
"Watch the stomach, watch the stomach!" I yell without thinking.
Jessica's mouth drops open, "Are you pre…." I quickly slap a hand over her mouth and let out a nervous chuckle.
"You know, I have had a really long day and I think that it's time for me to go to sleep now," I quickly reply, not sticking around to get the food that the boys have just returned with.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"No, absolutely not!" Four replies as we walk down the street in front of the row of identical houses. "I am not getting strangled if something happens to you."
"Too bad, I'm coming."
He stops and pinches the bridge of his nose, "Do you really think that is such a good idea? In your…" He pauses, studying his feet awkwardly before finishing, "Condition."
I laugh, "It'll be fine and I am not just going to sit here and worry."
Four takes a deep breath, "I'm not going to be able to talk you out of this, am I?"
"Nope."
"Fine, you can come but stay close and don't do anything stupid."
"Of course," I reply with an innocent smile that even I don't believe.
Super short, I know. I am planning to update again tomorrow. Let me know what your theories about the attack are.
