Chapter 11
Leaving for Abnegation was hard. Not physically of course, but mentally. I know for a fact that every inch we get closer to Marcus and his old life Tobias hurts more. Just knowing this, and knowing I'm the reason he is coming is making me mental.
Five more minutes untill we have to jump. With wat strenght Tobias is going to do that I can not say. He went cold, emotionless Four on me today. I don't blame him.
"Tobias, are you okay?" I know he won't tell me. Not really.
"Yeah, Tris. I'm fine" I was right. Who would be fine whit this. With an abusive past. With Marcus as a bloody father.
Instead of pushing him further I take his hand in mine and lace our fingers together. Trying somehow to help. I don't let go of his hand not even when we jump out of the train.
The meeting is held in a tall building, gray obviously. The plain building makes me kind of sad. Not nostalgic like usually with Abnegation memories. This building however makes me pity the Abnegation.
This is not what it was supposed to be. Tobias once said that Dauntless has changed since the founding. And that Dauntless has become more about adrenalin junkies who have to brave no matter. Intead of people that think you have to be brave to stand up for the weak in a war, because cowardice was the reason of the was.
Abnegation has the same symptomes. Instead of just helping other people and being selfless, it has become a competition of how plain you can live. And who can efface them self the most.
I think all the factions have taken what they stand for out of preportion and forced it on the members stronger and more important than intended.
The confrence room is as every other Abnegation room as simple as possiple. Through the glass we can see that everyone is already seated.
My father is next to Marcus Eaton. Sitting right opposite of Max. Where I and Tobias are supposed to sit.
"Tobias, you don't have to do this if you don't want to. You can go back." I say. Hoping to spear him from more pain. But Tobias is Four. Dauntless protege, only scared of four things. Stubbourn and is never going to back down.
"I'm not leaving. I'm not going to leave you here with him" He spits out the last sentence like venom. Grips my hand harder and opens the door.
Because we are the last ones to arrive the room is almost quit. All eyes turn to us when we enter the room.
My father stares at me dumbfound. He dosen't recognize Tobias Eaton. His eyes wander to out intertwined hands.
"Nice of you too join us. Beatrice" He pauses for a second then continues "I see you have brought someone with you?" I can swear for a second Marcus doesen't know who Tobias is. Then his face lights up.
He coughs "I haven't seen you in a while To-" "Four" Tobias cuts him off. And I agree, in that moment he is in fact Four. "I did not come here for you Marcus" he says in his stern scary voice.
All the other people in the room look confused at between the two. "I see" the monster replies after a few moments of silence. His words are meant to be hurt, but I can see a smile playing on his lips.
He is sick. Enjoying his son's pain.
The rest of the meeting goes by as usual. However just as we are about to leave, my father stops us. Last time he acted like I wasen't even there. My scary, older boyfriend must have caught him by suprise.
"Hello father." I try being cold. Faction before blood running though my head.
"Beatrice. Well, aren't you going to introduce me to your, friend here?" he motions towards Tobias at the same moment his father joins us.
Before either me or Four can say anything his father says "I believe our children here have found each other in the Dauntless compund"
This is new, Andew Prior looks caught off guard. His eyes roam over my boyfriend and then mumbles "Tobias?". Tobias expression though does not change. "I prefer Four, Mr. Prior"
He keeps up the act of the cold emotionless instructor while Andrew looks at him with discust. The same look he gave me when I transferred. He thinks we betrayed them. I might deseve it, but Tobias did not betray that scumbag. Taking your own safety in account is not selfish, it's brave.
I give Marcus my best death glare just as we are about to turn around.
"Beatrice" My father exlaims. "You do not look at Mr. Eaton like that"
I can feel the anger boiling up in me. Look at him like that? I should do so much worse to Mr. Eaton. Mr. Eaton, I should hurt him for hurting Tobias.
"With all do respect Sir. I don't think you know what you are talking about. You should not be mad at Tris, looks do not physically harm one" I can hear him mutter " Unfortually" under his breath, but my father does not hear it.
"Don't be a bad influence son"
Arrgh. He makes me so sick. "HE is not a bad influence" I say as I speed walk out of the room.
I can feel my fathers disaproving eyes burning in the back of my head. Even more dissapointed in me than the last time.
When we are finally outside and my frustration has worn down a little bit, I stand on my tip toes and kiss him. Showing him just how much I love him and that I'm proud of him.
His Four attitude fades away and I can feel him returning all the love and warmth with equal passion. I am so gratefull that he came. He kept me from pulling someone apart.
"I am really proud of you. You are nothing like him."
We kiss again.
"I love you, so much Tobias"
He smiles. It is a smile that gets out way to little. This morning I was mad at myself for being able to hurt him by taking him with me. Right now I am the happiest person alive, because I'm able to make him smile like that.
"I love you too, Tris"
Please, please give me suggestions I'm having a hard time coming up with something original. I'm really sorry it took so long, but I am in the middle of exams. Hope you liked it give reviews.
