Tobias POV
Chapter 19
My eyes take in every detail of Tris. Her hair is curled slightly and is now resting behind her shoulders. She has blue jeans and an off-the-shoulder grey striped black shirt on. But that's not the reason why I'm speechless.
Reb blood is smeared on her clothes and a few dark purple bruises are now scattered on her face, but the colour I can tell they haven't been formed too long ago.
Rage courses through me as I desperately try to find my words, "Who did this to you? What happened?"
I watch as she makes no attempt to look at me, her head hung low as she replies with a hint of hate as well as sadness in her voice,
"Peter, Drew, and," Her voice breaks slightly as she mumbles, "Al."
I place two fingers underneath her chin, making her look up at me, a sad smile forms across my face as I speak to her.
"Tris, you're safe now, what happened?"
Her bottom lip quivers slightly as she pauses, and then begins explaining, "I don't exactly know, they just came, they left when your car came down the street, I don't know how they found me."
I walk inside and embrace her in a hug, she holds onto me tightly as I lift her up, abandoning the flowers on the ground. Her legs go around my waist as I walk to her sofa and place her down softly, not wanting to accidentally touch one of her injuries.
I wanted to know who Drew was but right now was clearly not the time, there were more important things at hand.
"Tris, how did they hurt you?" I ask softly, not wanting to startle her.
"They just punched me, well Peter did, Al was making sure no one came for the most of it, and Drew, he," She hesitates, "He handed a knife to Peter. I tried to stop him, but they were both holding so tight."
I watch a tear roll down her cheek, I feel hatred for Al, Drew and Peter. But what shes says next sets my blood on fire.
"A-And he touched me."
After a few more minutes of talking, and tending to her injuries, I make a quick call to the police who then come and take Tris' statement. Fortunately, her security camera's had caught most of the footage, capturing Al, Peter, Drew and Peter's new girlfriend Molly who was their getaway driver, red-handed.
"Thank you for coming," Tris says, giving me a small smile, she closes the door behind the police officers and then stops in the hallway, staring down.
Curios to what happened, I make my way towards her, and watch as she stares blankly at the blue roses I bought her, a few tears stream down her face as she wipes them quickly.
"I'm sorry for ruining our date."
I'm momentarily taken back, first, she gets assaulted and then she believes it's her fault our date is ruined.
"Tris, none of this is your fault, and our date is not ruined, if you would let me, I would like you to go out with me right now,"
"I can't go out in public, not like this," She mumbles, looking at herself in disgust.
I frown, "Tris, you're beautiful, how about you get changed into some warm clothes and I'll take you to this one place. When we get there, if you're not feeling up to it, we'll come straight back and I'll make dinner and we can watch a film," I suggest as she nods
A few minutes later, Tris' dressed in sweatpants and a purple long-sleeved shirt, I take her hand as we make our way to the car. The temperature seems to have gone down by a few degrees, as she shivers.
"Here, take this, I have another one in the back," I offer as I take off my hoodie and hand it to her as I grab one of my other hoodies from the back and put it on.
Tris gives me an appreciative smile and then slips the hoodie on, I can't help but smile at the sight of my large hoodie engulfing Tris' petite figure. She smiles at me, seemingly relishing the feeling of my hoodie.
Ths soft hum of the radio plays as we drive. Only a few minutes later, we reach our destination. I hold my hand out towards Tris as she takes it. We walk into the building as I talk to the receptionist.
A few minutes later, we're seated in a room with a nice comfy sofa, wooden floors, a heater attached to the wall, and a few boxes with an assortment of items in them.
A man walks into the room holding a box, he places it down a small shuffling sound can be heard, he steps out of the room and the box opens with two puppies inside of them.
A smile makes its way onto Tris' face as she moves to greet one of the puppies.
Two hours seem to pass by as I watch Tris play with both puppies, with a smile that seems to be permanent. I find myself having to pry the puppies and Tris away from each other when it's time to leave.
"Thank you, Tobias," She whispers as we get into the car, a smile makes its way onto my face; the way she says my name makes me want to do nothing more than kiss her perfect lips.
"No problem," I reply.
We make our way back to her house. She takes a seat on the sofa when we got there as I answer the door, receiving the pizza we had ordered.
"Hey mum, dad, I miss you, I'm not here alone today though, for a change, it's not Caleb or Tori, I'm with Tobias, you would have loved him, he's…" She trails off as she diverts her eyes from her parent's gravestone to my eyes.
"What are we?"She questions as I take her hand.
"Whatever you want us to be," I mumble, placing a kiss on her knuckles.
Smiling at me, she turns back to the gravestone, "He's my boyfriend, I wish you could meet him, you would definitely approve of him, he took me to see puppies yesterday."
A smile makes its way onto her face as she recalls our experience yesterday. I sit and listen to Tris talks to her parent's gravestone, informing them all of what's happened since the last time she saw them; the night I came to visit my mother.
"I should have listened to you dad, mum," She mumbles as she tells them about Peter's assault, "You were right, he wasn't the right person for me, he was horrible, I was so stupid, I'm sorry."
I feel a few drops of rain fall as Tris reluctantly gets up as rain mingles with the tears on her face. I wrap my arms around her, standing with her for as long as she needs.
"Four, Four," Christina hisses, as I turn and look at her, she motions for me to come closer so she can whisper something to me.
"What?" I question
"What's happening between you and my bestie," She says referring to Tris.
"Oh...that,"
"Just tell me, I have a bet with Will and I'm pretty sure I'll lose,"
"We're dating," I reveal
Christina nods casually before yanking me by the shirt, whispering or what some would call threatening me not to make our relationship for the next two days, otherwise, she would lose her weekly piece of Dauntless cake to Will.
"Do I need to be worried?" Tris' voice queries as she looks at me and Christina with a curious smile plastered her face.
"You guys are dating, don't tell Will, you're my best friend, you wouldn't want me to lose my piece of Dauntless cake," Christina rambles as Tris smirks.
Tris mumbles some sort of statement to Christina along the lines of, 'Let's hope Will doesn't see'.
Her lips make their way to my neck as she presses them on my pressure point, a small groan makes it's way out of my mouth as I struggle to stay quiet. My eyes close slightly as I see Christina looking around making sure Will isn't here.
The sound of a camera click makes me open my eyes as I see Christina with her phone in her hand smiling at the picture. Completely unaware of the fact Will is standing behind her
"You owe me your Dauntless cake, Chrissy."
A/N I hope you guys like that chapter, Four and Tris are finally together. The next chapter should be out in the next few days. This fanfic does have more to it besides FourTris stuff, although there should be plenty of that.
All their relationship stuff is based off other fanfic's I've read. Please review and tell me what you want more of. Until next time,
