"Hey sleepyhead, you should go to bed. We must be at Max office by elven a.m and leave for the train by two. You really should sleep, it will be a hard day, for all of us leaders" Eric said concerned
Tris lifted her head from his shoulder
"You're right, we should go to bed" yawning Tris got up from the couch
Eric was about to go to the door
"You're not staying?" Tris asked confused
"You want me to stay?"he asked surprised
"Of course, Eric you were gone for days , you are my best friend, no you're more, and as I said before I missed you, so please stay, and let's go to sleep together, tomorrow will be a hell of a day" she said and headed to the bedroom
He was stunned by her honesty, she always had trouble to speak about her feelings because of her background, and tonight she blurt it out, easily. Something must happened while he was gone, but that was a question for another time.
He silently followed her to the bedroom and layed down next to her.
He laid his head on her stomach
She was scrapping his head, as he was about to drift off he whispered
"I missed you too, you have no idea"
Her heart was beating faster at his words, she smiled and closed her eyes.
She woke up in the middle of the night, only to find that she and Eric shifted they position, and were now facing each other, Eric had a one arm around her neck and the other around her waist, she sighed and pressed her face into his chest, she had wished this almost every day since he was gone, she had no idea when she had fallen for him, but she had. And she hoped that he felt the same.
"Stop thinking so hard you're giving me a headache" Eric grunted and pulled her even closer. She closed her eyes again.
Banging on door, woke her up.
It was still dark outside, and she wondered who would be so rude, to be so loud at this time of the day. She slipped out of the bed, without turning the lights on, she didn't want to wake Eric.
The banging got louder and she got angry, she throwed the door opened, only to find a very drunk Four
"Tris" he slurred "I'm sorry for what I said and done, please let me in and we can be together again"
She crossed her arms around her chest and looked really dangerous at the man she used to loved
"Tobias you're drunk, it's 5 in the morning and you're banging on my door like a mad man, no you can't come in and hell no you and I are never going back together, I don't want you and I don't love you, so please go and let me sleep" she said in clam but stern voice
Something must have snapped in Four, because his face got into a blank mask of nothing, the next thing she knew was that she was pinned down on her floor, she was kicking and trashing but he did not loosen his touch, her wirsts hurted, but she would not give up. She did the only thing she could think of "ERIC!!! please! "she was screaming of the top of her lungs.
