Hi guys, I'm really sorry I wasn't able to update this weekend, I was at my dad's house, and couldn't get a hold of my mom. So long story short, I wasn't able to finish, then post it. I'll see you guys at the bottom of the page :) Sorry I'm not Veronica Roth, I am Cam :)
When we get there I see Riley punching and kicking a punching bag. Daddy goes over to mommy and they continue watching other initiates. I walk up to Riley, he doesn't notice, and whisper,
" Panyscake " He stiffens then turns around to face me
" Please, do not become my dad with the panyscake thing, that is all I hear coming out of his mouth, oh by the way hello beautiful " He says smiling, he leans over and kisses me. I haven't felt my lips against his in such a long time, and it seems like such a long time ago. I loop my arms around his neck. I feel his tongue on the bottom of my lip asking for entrance I open my mouth for him, and we fight for dominance he wins.
" Hey ! Get a room ! " someone says. I unhook from Riley and look at who it came from, I see Daniel smirking next to Lexus.
" Shut it " I say, I turn back to Riley.
" So I guess you don't have to use a wheelchair anymore? " Riley asks
" Nope " I say popping the p. I feel as though I'm being watched, from behind.
" Is he behind me ? " I ask Riley. He nods and I turn around.
" Ethan listen, you know I hate you, and I have no idea if you hate me cause I have done nothing bad to you. I just want to let you know that just because I've made you mad does not mean that you can go around hurting people I love " I say
" I have't hurt any of your family " He says
" I consider Riley one of the people I love " I say. Ethan stiffens.
" You love that ? " He says pointing to Riley. I stand in front of Riley and nod.
" Ethan, I still don't really know why you did what you did and why you keep trying to hurt me... I really want you to know that I found you with Emily, and Riley was there when you weren't. Okay I get it Emily may have made you kiss her or something, but if she did, you wouldn't have gone through all of this trouble just to hurt me, and Riley. Don't ever touch me, or the people I love ever again, if you break this rule, you will be sorry " I say
" Whatever Talia, I am in no way afraid of you, I've already proven to you that I can beat you in a fight " He says. I shiver thinking back to that night.
" Ethan you know better than I do that, that was an unfair fight " I say I walk away towards the corner of the room, Riley following right behind me.
I sit down in the corner and pull my legs up to my chest and hug them. Riley sits beside me and pulls me against his chest. I look up at him and see his eyes.
" I love your eyes Ri " I say still looking at him.
" I love yours " He say smiling, still looking down at me.
" Initiates, you may leave for the day,tomorrow we start fear simulations, we will see you then !" Daddy says
Everyone leaves and Riley pulls me up. My shoulder still hurts, but I think it'll go away soon. Riley and I make our way down to the dining hall, hand in hand. When we get there we go get our food, and we sit down at a table with Melissa, Lexus and Daniel, I don't see Ethan anywhere.
" So Talia, you uh, have something you wanna tell us ? " Melissa say eyeing Riley.
" Oh, well guys this is Riley, and me and him are dating. Um we have been for about... " I look at Riley " Maybe 5 days ? " I say unsure. " Anyways Riley is the son of Uriah and Marlene "
They all nod and begin eating. I look at the door way and see Ethan walk in, I look away and Riley puts his hand on my thigh I look at him and smile.
Ethan ends up sitting down at our table and just eating, when he is done he gets up and leaves walking down the hall. Riley and I soon finish as well. I look around and I don't see Jace, or mommy and daddy.
" Riley, I'm kinda tired, can you take me too my parents apartment ? "
" Of course Talia, let me just go say hi to my parents real quick ? " He asks and I nod my head. He grabs my hand and leads us over to the table mom and dad usually sit at. I see Uncle Uriah get up along with Aunt Marlene. Uncle Uriah and Aunt Marlene each hug Riley.
" Mom, dad I'd like to introduce you to Talia Eaton, my girlfriend " Riley says.
" Ri, we already know Talia, but thank you for introducing her to us " Aunt Marlene say. She opens her arms and I run into them.
" Hi Aunt Marlene " I say
" Hi baby, listen, your parents were so worried about you did you know that ? And you didn't here it from me but, Riley was too " She says and I smile. She lets go of me and I turn to Uncle Uriah.
" Hi Uncle Panyscake " I say.
" Talia, that is my thing but I let you use it just once " He smiles and opens his arms like Aunt Marlene did. I hug him, then release and go back over to Riley and take his hand.
" You ready to go? " He whispers in my ear. I nod and we make our way out of the dining hall and towards the living units. When we get there I kiss Riley goodnight and hug him lightly. I knock on the door and daddy opens it. Riley leaves and I walk into the apartment.
" Hi daddy, I'm tired so I'm gonna go to sleep, is that okay ? " I ask
" Of course baby girl, your mom was tired too so she is in bed reading, do you need help with getting into your clothes ? " He says. Yes I do, but I am Dauntless I need to do things myself.
" No, but thank you, I love you " I say hugging him.
" I love you too Talia so much " He says hugging back. I walk to my room and get out a big T-shirt and some back sweatpants. I try my best to put on my shirt lightly, trying not to hurt my shoulder, but it doesn't work. Oh well. I get into bed and think about my day again. I got to kiss Riley again. I smile and am drifted off into a peaceful sleep.
