Before:

(Back to Tobias's POV):

I ran up the stairs that lead to the roof and saw Drew standing on the edge of the roof, peering at the ground. I try to scream out but my voice...wasn't there. I try again.

"Drew...! DREW!", I scream.

He turns around, tears flowing from his eyes, and shakes his head. "Stay away from me, man. Let me die."

"No. Don't be a dickhead, Drew. GET off the roof."

Ashlyn pinches my arm, making me fake cry. She rolls her eyes and comes slowly towards him.

"Drew...please. Come over to us, Drew. Don't jump."

Drew looks at Ashlyn.

"Ya see that...? Why can't you be like her...? Why does SHE have to motivate you on EVERYTHING?!"

"She...she...Ashlyn is NOT the problem here, you..."

Ashlyn cuts me off with a look and says, "Drew, please..."

Noah came up last and saw us trying to coax Drew from off the ledge.

"Dude, you don't wanna jump...! Think of LIFE! Life is...life is...precious. You have to live your life to the fullest! Isn't that what the Dauntless believe in?"

I remember that being in the Dauntless manifesto. And orderly acts of courage and bravery.

Drew breathes through his nose and slowly steps back, but shakes his head, pointing at me slowly. "How will I know if you won't pull any bullshit on me again...?"

Ashlyn glares at me.

"Look. I'm not pulling strings. Promise. But, you're overreacting about this whole crap with Alyssa."

"Tobias...!", says Ashlyn, before turning to Drew. "Drew, come back."

Drew comes closer to the edge of the roof but Noah comes to grab the collar of his black t-shirt.

"Don't do it, man!"

Drew pulls away from his grasp and jumps off but Noah grabbed his arms and tried to pull him up. I grab on to his waist and Ashlyn holds on to me. She was struggling to pull, since she wasn't all that strong, but I pulled at least twice. Noah wasn't all that big. We managed to get drew back up, but he was still convinced that his life was meaningless. I roll my eyes and said, "Give it up. Drew, you're being a primadonna. I thought you like Opal."

"Man, she'll never go out with a freshman! Besides, I don't want to get her in trouble with...dating a minor."

"It's only by a few YEARS, idiot."

Ashlyn tugs on the back of my shirt, indicating me to come follow her. Though, I shouldn't have done THAT, because she got me alone, she slaps me on the back of my head!

"OW! The hell, Amity?!"

"YOU are so rude and inconsiderate! That's your cousin and you can't swallow your Dauntless pride and help him out...? Aren't your grandparents from Abnegation?"

"Don't bitch me about my family, Ashlyn."

"I'll do whatever I WANT. Drew's your cousin; help him out!" She's right. Dammit...

I go over to Drew, who was sitting on the roof next to Noah, glaring at me. I breathe in and said, "I'm sorry."

"Is that so hard…?", asks Drew, tears in his eyes. "Can't you do that on your own once in a while...?"

I could.

But, I'm my mother's son.

I nod my head slowly and close my eyes, for I might cry, too. I crouch down next to my cousin and hold in my breath, struggling to hug him. I wrap my arms around him and hug him. Drew, hesitant at first, but later joins to hug me back. Noah and Ashlyn gather around us and we all group-hug. Breaking us all up, I say, "Alright, you bunnies, get off of me..!"

They got off of me, Ashlyn putting her hands on her hips, and she comes close to me to stand on her tiptoes and kiss me. Noah and Drew both made gagging noises. I roll my eyes.

"Shut up, you dumb asses.", I say.

They laugh and Drew slowly sniffles.

"Want me to call Mom?"

Drew nods. "Can you not tell my parents? I don't want Mom freaking out about this."

I nod and took out my cell phone to call my mom.

"Hey, Mom...can you come get us? Well, don't...blame me for this...but, Drew, he...tried to jump off the roof...and...Mom, Mom, it's okay, he's fine. Can you come get us...? Thanks, Mom. Love you, too..."

I hung up. "She's comin'."

"Can we come with...?", asks Noah, looking at me.

"You guys...wanna come?", I ask.

"Well, we wanna make sure Drew's okay."

"And you don't trust me.", I hiss.

"Well...we do trust you...but-"

"Why are you hesitating, Noah..?"

I come closer to him, making Noah back up some, but Ashlyn was holding on to my arm. I look down at her and blowed. "Fine. Let's go."

As we all head down the stairs and leave and meet up with my mom, the white-haired lady from Madame Jean's office saw us and yelled, "What the hell are YOU still here, Marshall?"

"Calm down, Jean's Rottweiler! I'm meeting my mom to come and get us."

"Oh, really?", she says sarcastically. "I'll believe it when I see it."

"It's true, Miss...um...I forgot your name.", says Ashlyn.

"Call her Jean's Rottweiler, babe."

"I will NOT, Tobias."

"You're cute when you're mad."

She sticks her tongue out at me and says, "We'll leave when Mrs. Marshall comes."

Noah looked at his sister then to the white-haired lady. "What is your name? Do you go here...?"

"Ugh, I TOLD you-"

"Tobias, shut up for once, will ya?", snaps Drew.

I glare at him.

The white-haired girl says, "My name's Kylie, FYI, and Mom hates dwellers..! Got to class, you guys! Except for you, Tobias."

"Yea, yea. I get it."

"What did you do?', asks Noah.

"Defending me and my girlfriend is now not allowed in Jean's jailhouse..."

Noah looks at me with worry, but Drew looked at Kylie with wide eyes. "Did you say...your name is Kylie?"

"What do you wanna know?", she asks.

Drew shakes his head. "Just wondering."

What was up with Drew? Before I open my mouth, Mom comes through the doors and found us. She was accompanied by Uncle Mason and Auntie Kiera. Mother hugs Drew and slaps me on the back of my head. OW! Tow times by two damn girls! I can handle my mother, but Ashlyn was another story. I rub the back of my head and say, "Mom, glad to see YOU, too."

"Says the person who almost let your damn cousin kill himself!"

"And who I'm finding out is suspended.", says Drew with a smirk on his face.

"You bastard!", I say to Drew.

"WHAT?", says my mother. Then, she looks at Kylie up and down. "Is this the principal...? You look familiar."

"You do, too.", says Kylie.

Mom eye her up and down again and shakes her head. "Anyway, Tobias, you're gonna be..."

She had that face. Her thinking face. She came close to Kylie and asks, "Do you...know someone by...the name of Jeanine?"

I hiss at that name.

Ugh. Jeanine.

"How do you..", asks Kylie but stops as she takes one final look at my mother. "You're that girl...! Liz Eaton."

"Kylie...! You BITCH!"

My mother comes after her, but Mason and I had to hold her back. "Lemme go! Lemme knock this bitch to Chinatown...!"

Kylie smirks and says, "Nice to see a familiar face..."

"You and your mother can-"

"Mom, please not NOW.", I say.

Then, Madame Jean comes out of her office, bewildered. "What's with al of the yelling? Kylie?"

"Mother, this girl is the daughter of Tris and Four.", says Kylie, pointing to my mother.

Mom glares at Kylie and looks at Madame Jean. "Jeanine...we finally...meet."

I look back and forth, baffled. Now, I feel stupid. Madame Jean. Jeanine. Made perfect sense. Madame Jean looks at all of us with a wide smile and says, "It's a pleasure meeting the daughter of two Divergent rebels."

Maybe my questions would finally be answered.

Mason and Keira come close to Mom, anger in their eyes as they were face to face with Jeanine.

This...will be a good fight.
