A/N I'm so sorry for not updating. I've not been super excited about this story lately because I'm reading too much FanFiction instead of writing it. Brownie151 and I have also been working on a crossover idea. I'm not saying anymore about that. Also next week and the next week I'm going to two separate church camps so I'll be without any internet and pretty much not service. I have to walk around a lot when I try to get service to call my parents.
Disclaimer: If I'm getting paid for this, I have no idea. That means I'm not Veronica Roth, who got paid for her writing. Which she's like a genius to come up with what I'm writing FanFiction for. I, however, am not a genius and haven't even finished high school.
Tris's P.O.V.
Uriah drags me to the net room because he says he wants 'bonding time with his adopted sister', whatever that means. We walk into the room and over to the net at fifteen minutes until midnight. After sitting on the net for a bit and chatting a little, Uriah claims he has to go to the bathroom so he runs out.
About two minutes later, I hear the door shut and lock. "Uriah?" I ask after a couple seconds of silence.
"No."
"Tobias?" I ask again. I cannot believe he just had the nerve to come in here. Surely he knew I was in here, or else he would not have come in.
"Bea?"
"Duh." I answer stiffly.
I hear him mutter something, but I cannot make up what.
"Why are you here?" He asks.
"Because Uriah said he wanted 'bonding time with his adopted sister'." I answer. "He dragged me in here and then left to go to the bathroom."
"Well Zeke brought me here for basically the same reason, but he was right behind me. He locked us in here." Tobias says.
"So they set us up, probably hoping we would make up." I conclude.
"Yep." Tobias replies. "Can I come over?"
"I guess." I really do not want him over here but I can sense he needs to tell me something so I allow him.
"Look, Bea, I was jealous. I never should have told you that I kissed her on purpose because I didn't. I was freaking out and had my eyes closed. She walked over and kissed me. I guess you somehow missed me pushing her off me." He explains.
"Umm, yeah. You also looked really suspicious when you walked away."
"Yeah, well, I pushed her away and walked off. I didn't want you to see because it is much easier to explain things to you when you don't actually see them." He adds nervously.
"Oh, so you think you have me all figured out, do you!" I exclaim. "Well you don't because if you did, you wouldn't have lied to me!"
"I know. And I was stupid to lie to you. I don't know why I let the jealously get the best of me. I know you would never cheat on me, and especially not with Robert." He chuckles. "Basically, i messed up and I'm so sorry for it. I never want to hurt you yet here I am, apologizing for hurting you. I understand if you want to break up with me." He looks away from me at the last part, but not before I catch the pain and fear in his eyes.
"Look at me." I say. "Why would I want to break up with you? I mean, yes.p, you did lie to me and tell me you cheated on me, but that doesn't mean that I can stop my feelings for you because of that. Yes, I was mad at you, and yes, I am still kind of mad. But I will get over it because I care too much for you to loose you over a stupid argument. I understand why you would be afraid of letting someone get this close to you, and I understand why you fear me cheating. It's because of your father who told you for years that no one loved you. Right?"
"You're right. I hadn't even realized he was the reason for that until you said so, but you're right." He replies in an ashamed tone.
"I'm always right." I say jokingly. "And there's nothing to be ashamed of. We both have pasts that we are never going to get completely rid of, but we are going to get past them as much as possible and that is going to be together. Okay?"
"Okay."
(Going from Divergent here. If you think I own it, you're probably delusional.)
He looks pained and leans closer to me, so his lips brush mine when he speaks.
"I have something to tell you," he says.
I run my fingers along the tendons in his hand and look back at him.
"I might be in love with you." He smiles a little. "I'm waiting until I'm sure to tell you, though."
"That's sensible of you," I say, smiling too. "We should find some paper so you can make a list or a chart or something."
I feel his laughter against my side, his nose sliding along my jaw, his lips pressing behind my ear.
"Maybe I'm already sure," he says, "and I just don't want to frighten you."
I laugh a little. "Then you should know better."
"Fine," he says. "Then I love you."
"I love you, too."
We both smile and lean in. We kiss for a long time, much longer than we should since it is probably close to one in the morning and we have training tomorrow- or actually today.
We finally get off the net and walk over to the door. Tobias reaches of and grabs the handle with the hand that is not holding mine, but the door does not budge. I wonder if the twins are sitting outside waiting on us. I try knocking on the door, and hear a click, signifying the door being unlocked. He door opens and the twins slip inside.
"Finally." Uriah says exasperatedly.
"Are you two good now?" Zeke asks.
"Better." We say in unison.
"Good. Let's go." Uriah says with a yawn.
"Tired?" I ask with a raised eyebrow.
"Yeah it's nearly one, and Zeke and I can't be still for that long so we've been fighting in the hall wait for you two." Uriah exclaims.
"Then let's go to the training room and get some sleep." Tobias retorts.
"Sounds good to me." Zeke adds. Then, with a pout, he says, "By the way, the four of us are hanging out tomorrow night because we missed out tonight."
"Okay. Now let's go!" I say.
"Are you two sure you didn't get Erudite? That was a pretty smart setup." Tobias asks.
"Positive." They say in unison.
"Whatever." Tobias Mutter to where only I can hear him.
We make small talk he rest of the way back to the dorms. "Bye. See you at midnight tomorrow, or today, whatever." Uriah says.
Zeke smacks him over the head.
"Night guys." Tobias says with a chuckle.
"Good night." I say.
"Night." The twins say simultaneously.
We go our separate ways. Tobias and I walk as quietly as possible to our bunks in the corner.
"Night, I love you." Tobias says against my skin when he kisses my forehead.
"Good night." I pull his mouth down to mine and kiss him lightly. "Love you." I say against his lips, making sure he feels the smile.
A/N Wow that got cheesy in some places. Also, if you have a problem with how typical some things in this are, don't tell me unless you have an idea of how to make it more interesting and have drama. I know, someone kissing Tobias and Tris thinking he's cheating is typical but 1) he told her he was cheating in this, 2) it's something with would probably happen, Tobias being the Dauntless heartthrob and everything, and 3) I'm not the best at drama and we all know these two fight A LOT. Rant over.
