The Real Game of Life

We do not own Divergent or the characters that honor goes to Veronica Roth. We just own this story and the plot.

Tobias's POV:

I woke up around six, with Tris still against me. I untangled myself from her crippled body, and put a note on my pillow saying I was going to breakfast. I walked out the door and shut it quietly. Then began the walk from our apartment to the dinning hall.

Barely anyone was in the dinning hall. I filled my plate and sat down next to Uriah and Christina with Uriah on my left and Christina on my right. "Where's Tris?" Uriah asked. "Sleeping." I replied, astounded that they didn't know she was hurt. "Really? This late?" Christina asked surprised. I nodded and said in a lower voice so only they could here, "Yesterday she had a little," I hesitated, not sure what to say. Uriah's eyes urged me on, and I said, "accident. She shattered her leg, dislocated her shoulder, and has a concussion." They gasped simultaneously. We finished breakfast in silence, Christina was obviously fighting back tears, after all her best friend was hurt. I stood up to leave, and they stood up with me, and followed me out.

I got back to my apartment, and Tris was just waking up. I stood over her and waited for her to wake fully while I had Christina and Uriah wait outside. She sleepily peeled open her eyes and I was ready with pain medicine.

Tris's POV:

I woke up late and even before I saw Tobias standing over me, I was hit with a shock of pain every where. Tobias kissed my forehead and helped me sit up. He then gave me a teaspoon full of amber liquid and an glass of water. I remember from when I was a child, this stuff tasted horrible. I quickly swallowed the horrid tasting medicine and downed the glass of water, which really hurt my head, but it got rid of the taste. Tobias lightly lifted up my leg that was in a cast, and put multiple pillows beneath it. "You have visitors." He told me. He once again kissed my forehead and left the room.

Uriah's POV:

Four walked out of his and Tris's room and said, "Go ahead." He sighed and sat down on the couch. We walked in and were shocked by what we saw.

Tris was sitting up but leaning heavily against the bedpost, and her leg was in a black cast and propped up on pillows. Not to mention her heavily bandaged skull and shoulder. "How are you feeling?" I asked. She weakly smiled and forced out a scratchy "Okay." Christina sized up and said, "You weakling! I could be up and running in about a day!" I hit her but we all laughed. Tris suddenly stopped, and a look of pain crossed her face. Christina ran out of the room but just as fast came back with Four. He looked worried, but grabbed a container of pills and started filling a plastic cup with water.

Tobias's POV:

Tris's eyes were welling up with tears from pain when Christina and Uriah backed out of the room and left. I heard the door shut. I gave her a pill and some water and she carefully swallowed it.

Tears were streaming down her face when I sat next to her on our bed and helped her lay down. I pulled her close but she still continued crying silently. Her pain medicine still hasn't kicked in yet. After a half hour, she fell asleep again.

Tris's POV:

Pain racked my body as Tobias held me against him. That pill he gave me was supposed to help with the pain not make it worse. But he kept me warm until I fell asleep.

I was tied up again, with only my right hand free. I was holding a gun. Will was kneeling on the ground in front of me, and his wrists were tied together. Jeanine was standing to my right. "Shoot him!" She said. "Tris," Will pleaded. "No." I told Jeanine, barely audible. She wrapped both hands around my neck and squeezed. "I'm sorry, Will." I mouthed. I held the gun out and looked away and shot.

I sharply in took a breath. I opened my eyes and faced black. I started breathing heavy and fast. "Shhh." I heard. I released my breath. Tobias. "Shhh." He comforted. He pulled away and looked me in the eyes as if asking me what happened. I exhaled and explained, "I h-h-ad t-t-to shoot Will a-again." I stuttered and broke into tears. "Shhh-shhh-shhh." Tobias comforted me in his arms. But I continued to cry.
