LUCY1925:
Thank you so much for this amazing review! It literally made my day to read this and inspired me to write the next chapter so soon! So thank you for that! I loved reading your review!
I haven't gotten a call or text from Tobias, and it's been three days now. Currently, I'm walking on the sidewalk in town. I'm not really sure why, but it sounded like a good idea when I thought of it. I'm not sure it was my best idea after all, because as I start to turn the corner, I hear shouting and loud, obnoxious clicks
I stop in my tracks, trying to figure out whether or not I should continue, but as always, my curiosity gets the best of me.
I peek my head around the corner of the brick wall. The shouting and clicking becomes louder. Flashes of bright lights are flooding the sidewalk. Many bodies surround a small area, all looking at the same thing.
It looks like paparazzi. I've never really seen paparazzi before, but they're in a large mass, all shouting at once to the person that currently holds their attention. The movies I've seen portray them perfectly: loud, boisterous and downright disrespectful to anyone's personal space.
Currently, they are pushing one another out of the way to get a perfect shot of a man in a hoodie. A black hoodie to be exact. It seems very familiar... but from a while back. I can vaguely remember it.
The bushes behind me distract my mind as they start to rustle. I don't think I've ever seen any animals around here, but hopefully it's just a rabbit. I turn from the bush and face the water again. Dark grey, like the sky, it warns me. I don't know how or why, but the waves seem angry. I scrunch my nose and shake my head. I must be delusional. I turn my head back to the bushes behind me; there aren't anymore sounds coming from that general area. The wind whips my blonde locks in front of my eyes, like it's trying to block me from seeing something. I pull the strands back behind my ears and see a man. He stands close to me, with a black hoodie on and sunglasses covering his eyes.
Tobias.
I knew he worked with famous actors and actresses, but I had no idea it would bring him this much attention.
The paparazzi continued to yell as Tobias tried to pry his way through them.
"Four!" They yelled, "Can you tell us about the affair you're having with Jenna?"
"Four! Is it true you're filming your next movie?"
"Four! Who's going to be your date to the premiere?"
"Four!"
"Four!"
"Four!"
They all shot questions at him, left and right. But, what bothered me was not their nosiness, but the name they were calling him. I know it's Tobias, not Four. These people have it all wrong.
They look similar, but they can't be that much alike. Also, I saw Tobias wearing that sweatshirt before. So it couldn't possibly be Four... right?
Pictures jump into my mind. First the eyes from the beach, then the eyes shining whilst we danced at the wedding, both the same. Then the scar on the same exact spot on both chins. After, the hair color, nose shape, face shape, voice, and finally, body type. All. are. the. exact. same. Why didn't I notice earlier? How did I not see it?
I see his body moving through them and I start to shake. First, it starts in my finger tips. Then, it surges through my body like a wave, a very large wave.
I think Tobias may have heard me. I don't know how he would through all that noise, maybe from the sound of my phone colliding with the ground, but I doubt that. Either way, he somehow noticed me. The man turned and walked towards me, now completely oblivious of the people surrounding him. I can't help but stare for a moment. Throughout all this chaos, he still manages to look handsome. But then I realize something, and I turn with a disapproving shake of my head.
All this time, I subconsciously knew that they were the same person, I did. I just really didn't want to believe it. And now, I'm no longer able to choose which I'd want in my life, because there is no choice between the two. If I wanted Tobias, Four would come with it, and vice versa. It's like a packaged deal. Sadly, I don't want to deal with the trouble of that life.
But this doesn't bring me down too much, because this man was able to fool me so easily. I didn't think it was him because not only was it I that didn't want me to believe it but also him, who tried so hard to hide it. And it worked. I fell so easily for his trick. I let him fool me, just like Al. I trusted him without question and the result was a lie too large to hide. And it pisses me off that he thinks he can get away with that. So. Much.
I'm not someone that can just be walked all over, and I'm gonna make that known.
I don't run. I walk fast, but I don't run from him. Why? Because someone who lies about their entire life is not worth the effort.
"Tris! Wait!" He speeds up behind me.
"Tris." he breathes a sigh of relief.
I stare at him blankly.
"What's wrong?" He cocks his brow in a confused manner.
"I'm not sure, Four, what could possibly be the problem?" I twist his name, over exaggerating the pronunciation of the name in general.
"What the hell, Tris?" He questions, almost critically.
"What the hell, Four? Or should I say Tobias?" I glare deep into his eyes and watch the realization hit him like a ton of stones.
Game over.
"Dammit." He mumbles under his breath. "Look, Tris, I can explain."
"Like hell you can, but it won't change the fact that you lied to me." I roll my eyes.
"I know... I did lie to you. But-"
"Don't even try to explain yourself. It's just a waste of breath. Whatever we had before is done, so don't think anything will change." I turn away from him start to leave.
"Tris, don't you think you're being a little dramatic about this? I have my reasons just like everyone else!" He yells. I stop in my tracks.
"And this is why I shouldn't have fallen for you at all. Every man I've encountered just screws me over." I flip him off as I walk away.
And the last thing I hear him say is: "She fell for me?"
I did. But now I'm over it.
