"How do we know you're not bull shitting us? I mean that's not the ONLY thing you've lied to us about" Uriah says directing the comment at Caleb. "And how is that possible you are either one of the 5 or none at all. And sorry if I don't exactly believe you." Uriah says getting up and going upstairs in his room. Tris lets everything soak in before saying her goodbye's to her family and heads upstairs into Uriah's room were he's laying down watching TV. She walks over to his bed and takes of her shoes and lays down next to him. They lay there in silence before Tris breaks it.
"Why don't you believe them? And what did they lie to you about?"
Tris's Pov:
"I don't believe Aunt Natalie because I find it hard to believe that anyone can fit into more than one faction. Also how would she know any of this? There are so many holes in her story that makes me so mad!" Uriah says putting a pillow to his face. Tris lays on her back and stares up at the ceiling thinking about all of Uriah's questions.
Tris starts thinking over what Uriah said and starts to give her aunt and cousin the benefit of the doubt. "So you still never answered my question…What did they lie to you about?" Tris asked taking the pillow away from Uriah's face.
"Well for starters Aunt Natalie lied about being from Abnegation… She was Dauntless born but moved to Abnegation because she fell in love with Andrew Prior." Uriah says sitting up looking over at Tris. "I find it very weird that they never called or came to visit us after the last time we saw them and didn't even come to our parents funeral but shows up out of the blue to tell us about people who fit into more than 1 faction and we need to be careful? That's sounds like a lot of made up shit." Uriah says flatly looking at his sister. "I don't understand why you care so much…" Uriah mutters turning his head so he's looking away from his sister.
Tris looks at her brother in shock at this information that she never even knew. Tris sits there and thinks for a while and takes in what Uriah said thinks about what he said sounds legit. It's true they haven't talked to them since their last visit and that's when they were 7 and that was 3 years before their parents died. But Tris tires to give them the benefit of the doubt and thinks of more ways why they couldn't make it to them.
"Well look they are from Abnegation the probably couldn't go because only people from that fraction could go." Tris tries giving them the benefit of the doubt. Uriah laughs bitterly and sits up about to say something when Tris cuts him off. "I care because they are our family and they love us." Tris says looking at Uriah.
"No actually since our parents were both ranked number 1 in their year they were very popular and liked by many. That's why so many people came to their funeral. But back to the point everyone and even family were invited to the funeral and everyone else came but them." Uriah says with venom and bitterness evident in his voice. "Why do you like them so much? What have they ever done to you but abandon us…They really believe in faction before blood! But we were taught that family is everything." Uriah says very sternly trying to make Tris understand. Tris thinks it over and sighs.
"Exactly they are family! I care about them because when we first met them when we were younger I had a connection with Caleb and we had this bond that I don't think anyone but me and him would understand." Tris tells Uriah before sighing loudly. "Not even you…" Tris says barley above a whisper. Tris doesn't dare look at Uriah because she can feel his eyes burning a hole through her. Tris turns her head to Uriah and she looks in his eyes and sees hurt.
"…I want to be alone." Uriah says before turning his head so he's looking out the window. Tris realize what she said and feels automatically feels guilty for what she said.
"Uri-"Tris says before getting cut off and is shocked by what Uriah says.
"It's funny how someone who was only in your life for a short time means more to you than me…I lost my girlfriend who I've liked since I was 7 because of one mistake we both made. I was willing to make thing better with you before I asked her out again but I guess me doing that, being your best friend and twin isn't enough for us to have a connection. It's nice to know that our Twin bond/ connection isn't important to you… Guess I know where I stand." Uriah says with voice full of hurt and a little bit of anger with a hint of disappointment. Tris feels tears running down her face. Tris hops off the bed and walks toward the door. Tris walks out the door and runs to her room and jumps on her bed and cries.
Time Skip
Tris wakes up in morning and memories from last night start flooding in and silent tears began to flow out of her eyes. Tris finally stops crying and gets dress before heading down stairs. Tris walks in to the kitchen to see Uriah getting the milk out of the refrigerator. Tris walks pass and goes to the snack cabinet and gets a pop tart. Tris walks to the table where Uriah is and sits across from him. They sit for 5 minutes in silence before Tris breaks it.
"Good Morning Uri." Tris says offering Uriah a small smile. Uriah laughs bitterly and continues to eat his cereal ignoring Tris. Tris sighs in frustration. "So you're ignoring me?" Tris asked Uriah with irritation evident in her voice.
"Nah" Uriah says taking a sip of his orange juice still not looking her way. Tris glares at Uriah for about 2 minutes. Tris was about to reply when Zeke walks into the kitchen and grabbing a pop tart and sitting down next to Uriah.
"Hey guys." Zeke says smiling at his brother and sister. But looks at both of them to see Uriah nod his head and gets back to looking down at his plate while Tris gives a sad smile. "Is everything alright?" Zeke says awkwardly. Uriah shifts in his seat uncomfortably before getting up and putting his plates in the sink and grabbing his jacket.
"Um well I have places to be so peace." Uriah says about to leave but is stopped by Zeke.
"Where are you going?" Zeke asked before putting a pop tart in his mouth. Uriah groans in annoyance and turns around and lets out a sigh.
"Me and Ty are going paint balling and then were going to go train." Uriah says with a smirk. Tris starts feeling sad when she hears what Uriah's doing because they use to do together. Zeke finishes chewing his food before responding.
"Alright see you at lunch." Zeke says while he gets up and puts his and Tris's dishes in the sink. Tris looks up at Uriah. They make brief eye contact and Tris looks at him in hurt. Uriah looks closer and shrugs not caring how Tris feels.
"Thanks…Bye Zeke." Uriah says staring straight at Tris before turning around and leaving the house. Tris gets up from the table and starts putting her combat boots on and grabs her leather jacket and heads out to the training station.
Tris walks through the halls of Dauntless thinking about the argument she had with Uriah when she bumps into something or someone and falls to the ground. Tris opens her eyes that she didn't even know it were closed to a face she had not seen in a while.
"We keep meeting like this." Four says smiling like there is no tomorrow. "I think the next time I do I might end up breaking a bone." Four says laughing and grinning. Tris looks down on Four and smiles but before she knows what she's doing she leans down and kisses for smack on the lips. At first Four seems shocked but response back quickly with passion. After a couple more seconds of kissing Tris pulls away. Tris helps herself off of Four. Tris looks over at Four and smiles.
"So I haven't seen you in a couple days…What have you been up to?" Tris asked Four leaning her head back on the wall.
"I've been training because in 2 weeks is when our finally ranking and I'm a little bit behind everyone considering that I'm from abnegation and Max has been giving me more tips and kind of tutoring." Four says with a genuine smile before continuing. "And Max is like the father I've always wanted." Four finishes with a sad smile but covers it up with another smile that just doesn't get to his eyes.
"Oh I totally forgot about that I've been so caught up in family drama that I wasn't even thinking straight. Tris says bringing her knees to her chest and putting her head down.
"What do you mean "Family drama"? Are you, Zeke, and Uriah okay?" Four asked with concern evident in his voice.
"Well Zeke and me are good but Uriah and I are in a fight because my Aunt Natalie and cousin Caleb came to Dauntless from Abnegation." Tris says sighing. "I told Uriah that Caleb and I had a stronger connection than me and Uriah did when we were younger and he's mad at me." Tris says frustrated. "I don't even understand why he is mad at me." Tris said putting her hands in her hair. Four nods his head trying to figure out the situation from both perspectives.
"So when you were younger was Uriah mean to Caleb at all?" Four asked with and eyebrow raised. Tris moves her bangs out of her eyes and starts thinking back to when they were little.
"Who is that boy sitting in my spot?" Uriah says with a voice full of venom and anger.
"That's not yours that's my sister! Stop touching our stuff!" Uriah yells at Uriah before putting the doll back.
Tris starts thinking of all the mean things Uriah did to Caleb over the years. How even when they first met Caleb Uriah never liked him and Tris wonders why. Even now Tris starts noticing that he still never gave her a straight answer on why he didn't like Aunt Natalie and Caleb.
"Yea he just never liked him…But really hated him after like the first day Caleb gave me a piggy back ride. Ever since that day Uriah just never liked him." Tris explains Uriah's behavior to Four. Four sits there taking in all of what she said and thinks for a second.
"So I think I know why Uriah doesn't like Caleb." Four says looking at Tris. Tris nods her head wanting him to go on. "Uriah just doesn't want to lose you as his best friend and a twin. By you having a connection with Caleb makes him feel like the twin connection you have isn't as special it's just the connection you have with everyone." Four explains to Tris softly. Tris takes it all in a reality hits her hard. The memory from the night before hurt him worse.
"When we first met them I had a connection with Caleb and we had this bond that I don't think anyone but I and he would understand." Tris tells Uriah before sighing loudly. "Not even you…"
Guiltiness washes over Tris's face and starts to think over how she said that. Tris starts to realize that Uriah has sacrifice a lot for her and makes her feel even guiltier. Tris leans over and gives Four a hug.
"Thanks so much for helping me you're the best." Tris says smiling before giving Four a peck on the lips. Tris looks at Four to see him blushing. Four smiles before talking.
"So I heard you saying your cousin and aunt are from Abnegation…What's their names again?" Four asked trying to keep the conversation going.
"Natalie and Caleb Prior why?" Tris asked with curiosity.
"Umm…well I know them…" Four says with shock written all over his face.
