Gone
I've been reading the Divergent books before the movie comes out. March 21st is when it comes out in the US if you didn't know. :)
Tobias carefully placed his palms against Tris' face as if he was afraid of somehow breaking her.
"I'm not glass, Tobias. I'm tough as nails, remember?" Tris whispered, her voice coming out softer and lighter than she intended it to be.
He leaned down until he was only a breath away from her lips.
Her scent was as dizzying to him as it used to be.
"I know," he said, quickly brushing her lips against hers.
Tris smiled, "Then what are you afraid of?"
"Losing you."
"That won't happen, I'm right here. With you," as she said that, her scarred hands wrapped gently around his, incasing them in warmth.
"But you're hurt... And I can't even save you this time."
"Maybe it's time to stop trying. I'm already gone, Tobias."
Tobias blinked and Tris disappeared.
It's painfully short, isn't it? I wanted to write more but... It seemed like a good spot to end. I might go back and make it longer if that is what you guys wish. :)
