TOBIAS'S POV
"Daddy." I looked up to see my daughter. Her blond hair in her face, pain in her deep blue eyes. "What is it Elizabeth?"I asked her. "I fell off a chair and cut my arm open."she answered. I looked at her arm. It was soaked in blood. Part of my mind was still asleep. The other part was screaming at me to get up and help my daughter. I listened to the screaming part. I quickly jumped out of bed and got dressed. I picked her up and carried her off to the infirmirary, to which she protested the whole way. "But daddy! I only need a band aid!" "Really, a band aids going to fix that." I said and pointed to her arm. She looked down and I watched her face pale at the sight. "Yeah, a band aid works." "No Elizabeth. Your going to get that stiched up whether you like it or not."I said. "But daddy needles scare me!"she said. "Welcome to Dauntless."I said sarcastically as I set her down at the main desk of the infirmirary.$
ELIZABETH'S POV
"So how exactly did you cut your arm open? It looks like it was a knife, not a chair."dad asked me. I looked down. I didn't want him to know what really happened. "Elizabeth, please tell me."he said. "I was playing with other kids and we were doing an obstical corse. It was my turn and I didn't want to be a coward so I did it. There was a lots of glass on the ground and I tripped and landed on a piece."I mumbled. "Thank you for telling me Liz. Who were you playing with and why didn't they take you here?" "Their names were Adam, Ethan, Allie, Josie and two others that I don't remember. And they didn't bring me here because I didn't want them to."I said. Dad was going to say something, but then the doctor came. He looked at my arm. Then he went and talked to dad about something. My dad nervously looked at me and nodded my head. I wasn't sure if that was good or bad. Then the doctor left and my dad came over next to me. Judging by the look on his face it wasn't good. "Ummm..."he began. Definitly NoT good. "The doctor is gonna have to stitch that up."he said. At stitch, my heart stopped in fear. Needles. Nonononononono! Not happening. I closed my eyes. I could hear my dad saying something. Probably that id be fine, but I couldn't hear him through the jumbled mess that was my fear.
TOBIAS'S POV
I am a horrible father. I knew that Elizabeth was deathly afraid of needles. When I told her what the doctor had to do and I saw her instantly tense, I wraped my arm around her. But it had to be done. The cut was long and wouldn't stop bleeding. Why was I putting a ten year old through this? I tried to reassure her. "You'll be fine. Just don't kill anyone or squirm and it should be painless." I don't think that she heard me. "You can do this" I tried again. I could understand her feelings though. That's how I felt when in enclosed spaces. Just as she opened her eyes the doctor came in. Facing the door, however, she saw him instantly with his needles and string(whatever its called). Tears began silently streaming down her face. I hugged her tighter. She could do this. She was a strong little girl. She squeezed my hand with her free one as the doctor came over and began stitching up her arm.
