I debated writing chapter 2 in Tris' POV but I've decided against it and will move the story along so stay tuned

Tris POV

I walk out of the café with a huge smile on my face. Four is so nice and the fact that he's attractive is an added bonus. Despite everything he's been through, he seems like he has a good head on his shoulders. Maybe Christina was right. I don't know what'll happen but I do know that I wanna get to know Four better. He was so easy to talk to. He understood me like no guy ever has before. If he talked to me does that mean he's single? I hope so. But yet I'd be surprised. A guy like him probably has countless girls throwing themselves at him.

I enter the apartment to find Will sitting on the couch on his phone.

"Sorry, I took longer than I thought. How is she?"

"It's all right. She went to sleep a little while ago. I gave her all her medicines so hopefully she'll sleep through the night."

"Thanks Will."

"It's not a problem. Besides, she's my girlfriend so it's probably more my responsibility than yours. She'd have probably thrown a fit if I hadn't come over."

I chuckle. "I guess that's true."

"Well, I guess I'd better get going. I'll call Christina in the morning. Good night, Tris."

"Okay. Good night, Will."

I see him out the door then head quietly to my bedroom and get ready for bed. I decide to text Four.

Tris: Thanks again for chatting with me. I had a great time tonight. I look forward to hopefully getting to know you more. Have a good night.

Four: It was my pleasure. I had a great time too. Maybe next time we can go out on a real date. I wish we could go tomorrow but I'm back to work, which will be torture since you won't be there.

Tris: Haha very funny. But I'm not opposed to going out on a real date sometime.

Four: I'll call you and let you know when I'm off work even if it's during the week. We don't necessarily have to go out to dinner. There's plenty of other things we can do, but we can talk about it later.

Tris: Sounds good :)

Four: Good night, Tris.

Tris: Good night, Four.

PAGE BREAK

The next morning I get up and go check up on Christina to see if she's awake. I find her sitting up in bed looking better than yesterday but still sniffling and coughing. This time she doesn't have a pile of kleenexes on her bed.

"Hey. How did you sleep?"

"Alright. I'm feeling a little better."

"You look better. You see, Will and I know how to take care of you."

She laughs a little. "Yeah I guess so. So what took you so long last night? How was the restaurant?"

"It was great. I think you'll like it. I decided to stop by Tori's afterwards and got to talking to someone and lost track of time."

"Who? A guy?" She nudges my arm.

I blush. "Yeah."

"So who is said guy?"

"Well, he goes by the name 'Four'. He explained his reasons for not telling me his real name and I respected that so I didn't pry. He was my waiter at the restaurant then came into Tori's not long after I got there and asked to sit with me. We talked for a little while and he asked for my number and he gave me his."

"Ooh! You just met the guy and you already got his number!"

"Yeah. He asked me out on a date, but it won't until he gets a day off from work."

"Well, I'm guessing I'll be over this cold by then so I'm gonna help you prepare for this date."

"I guess I don't have a choice, right?"

"Nope, but seriously whatever happens between you and this guy, anyone is better than Peter."

"I know and Four seemed nothing like Peter. He seems like a good guy from what I saw in talking to him. He's been through a lot but he doesn't let that bring him down."

"Wow. It seems like he's already spilled his deepest, darkest secrets to you or something."

"Not exactly. I mean, he did tell me that he was in the military and got injured, but his biggest secret is his real name. Maybe his family is supposed to be well known around town or something. He did tell me that his father is in jail."

"Oh wow. And his mother?"

"He said she took off when he was young."

"Poor guy. Must be tough for him."

"Yeah. I was surprised he told me all that, especially since we had just met. So, I decided that I felt comfortable enough telling him about my parents and Caleb. I did feel like it was so easy talking to him. Unlike Peter, he actually listened to what I had to say."

"I'm glad. Seems like you two have a lot in common already."

"Yeah. I do wanna get to know him more."

"Sounds like you're already smitten."

"Shut up."

Tobias POV

I'm currently hanging out with Zeke and Uriah in Zeke's apartment watching a movie but I don't focus on what's happening. I can't get my mind off of Tris. She's unlike any girl I've ever met before. I've never told anyone about Marcus and Evelyn before and even though we just met I knew I could trust her. I haven't even told Zeke and Uriah. When I came home, I felt lost and broken. I saw too many horrible things that no one should ever see. Something about Tris makes me feel alive and whole again. Like me, she lost her family. She understands me. I think I like her.

"Earth to Four!" Zeke waves a hand near my face. "The movie is over, dude. Were you even watching it?"

"Sorry. I got distracted. I was thinking about something."

"May I ask what that something was?"

"Well it was really more of a someone. I met this girl last night at work."

"Ah, I see." Uriah snickers behind Zeke.

"We got to talking and I pretty much asked her out."

"Wow. Already? I didn't think you were that bold. Especially after that witch Nita."

I roll my eyes. "A lapse in judgement."

"Uh huh. You were too good for her anyway. Eric got your sloppy seconds."

"They deserve each other. They're exactly the same. Eric is a jerk."

"You got that right. So when is your date with this girl?"

"Her name is Tris and we still have to figure that out with my work schedule. Probably on my next day off."

"Well, good luck man. Hope she's as great as you make her to be. You deserve that."

I smile. I can't wait to see Tris again.
