Thanks for waiting

Tris POV

"Do I look okay to you?" I yelled back at him. I covered my face with my hands and sobbed into my hands. I felt his presence near, knowing he was next to me now. He didn't bother to comfort me, and I didn't mind. I needed to do this my own way without being coaxed into a pity party.

"Everything okay?" He finally asked me. I laughed at his question. He knew I wasn't okay, but it was a nice comment. I smiled slightly at him, glancing at him. He looked back at me, the same dull expression he wore the first time I met him. "I'm guessing you found out I could be your future husband?".

He was trying to lighten the mood, but I felt myself go into that dark place again. I sighed and nodded my head. "Yeah" Was all I could say to him. He was a nice enough guy when he tried, and he was trying now.

"Four wasn't to pleased I'm assuming?" He questioned. I scoffed at him before turning to face him, leaning against a pole for support. I shook my head at him, smiling slightly.

"You know I know that Four is in love with you right? I could never take that away from you, but if you did have to choose out of all the guys chosen, I would be the best pic and you know it. I don't like you that way. I think you're a sweet girl and pretty enough, but I see you as someone I can rely on when I need to talk. Not sex" He spoke slowly, trying to find the perfect words to say.

I smiled and nodded in agreement. Eric was a good looker, but he wasn't my dreamy Four.

Oh god. Four.

I screwed up. I fucked everything up. God I told him he smelt like sex. Who does that?

I closed my eyes and rested my head against the pole. Why was I screwing everything up for everyone? Why was I the soul purpose for screwing up? Why!

"I will also assume you did something stupid to get Four on your bad side?" he looked at me, no expression what so ever. It was hard to read Eric. I couldn't tell if he was being sympathetic or arrogant. Either way I spoke to him.

"He slept with a girl called Nita, and I told him in a dining hall full of people he smelt like…sex" I said blankly. He raised his eyebrows, smirking before shaking his head.

"That probably isn't the best way to say I love you is it?" He told me, still smirking. Eric was also an arrogant asshole.

"Haha. Very funny. I just screwed everything up for me and Four"

"Maybe not. He could see this aggressive side of you as a sign of care" He told me. The look on his face told me he wasn't so confident with this statement, but there was hope.

"Four probably wont be happy when I probably choose you as my husband" I told him smiling. He smiled back and nodded. "Probably not" he responded.

"Yeah, probably not" A very familiar, pissed of voice said. I closed my eyes, not wanting to see Four right now.

"Four. Nice to see you too" Eric said. I opened my eyes to see him smirking at Four. He wasn't helping himself or me at all. He was making matters worse.

"You smell that Tris? I think it smells like sex, don't you think?" I looked at him seeing him glare at me. He was pissed off at me. I rolled my eyes at him, not answering his question. We were both pissed off at each other and we couldn't come to an agreement. We would inside pick at each other until one of us broke.

He started walking towards me, until he stood right in front of me. "You gonna answer my question Tris?" He used his instructor voice on me. I watched him a few times before training some kids, and it was this voice. He was instructing me and I wasn't going to have it.

"Yeah, I guess it does. Eric, do you think its that noticeable?" god I was a bitch dragging him into this, but I wanted Four to feel what I did when I found out he had sex with Nita. He should feel heartbroken and crushed.

But instead of seeing his emotions turn into sorrow, he lunged at Eric and punched him over and over again. "Four! Four, stop this please!" I tried to drag him off Eric but he pushed me away. I tripped on some wood before slamming into a brick wall. I started to feel dizzy, slowly resting down on the cold floor and saw hazily Zeke run to break the fight.

The fight I caused.


I woke in suddenly in a dark room. I couldn't see anything, my eyes hadn't adjusted yet. Had Four brought me back to dauntless? Did Zeke? Who else came with Four to get me?

I heard chatter from another room, bickering actually. I sat up and tried to listen to the conversation.

"I don't appreciate being followed Zeke". Four. It was Four talking and Zeke with him.

"You were pissed after she left. You threw a tantrum and started punching your initiates. Jesus Four! If you love her so much you should of told her, not fuck Nita" Zeke told him angrily. I smiled slightly for the support Zeke was giving me. Like an older brother would.

"Yeah, your right. I should have just told her I fucking love her and then lose her all together because that's what I wanted. To be completely blown off by her!" Four yelled back. He didn't know that I loved him? But… how couldn't he not know?

'Jesus you dick! Have you not notice how great you two are together? You're perfect for each other, and she sees it too. She cried to Shauna about how you were kissing Nita and told her she loved you. Dude, your too obsessed with your own thoughts that you don't even notice the things around you".

"She told Shauna that? No wonder she was pissed at me at lunch" Four asked quietly after a moment of silence between them.

"Damn right she was pissed at you. She was upset and heartbroken. That's why she was mad at you at the merry-go-round. She wanted you to feel her pain". Zeke told him with sympathy. I held my breathe for Four's response. I squeezed my eyes tight and held the blanket close to my chest.

"Well I differently felt pain" Four said. I smiled so big my jaw started to hurt. He did love me. Four Eaton loves me. He totally just admitted it to Zeke. I'm the happiest girl alive.

"I need to go check on her. She'll probably wake up with a headache" Four said. I heard footsteps coming towards the bedroom I was in. now that I think about it, my head was killing me. I had to think quickly. Do I pretend to be asleep, or I just wait for him to see me? I decided to be asleep. I didn't know what to say to him right now. And I'm pretty sure he didn't know what to say to me too.

I rolled to the other side from the door and closed my eyes. I heard the door open and close, and feet walking on the cold stone floor. He came to my side of the bed and sat down next to me. I felt his hand stroke me softly. I didn't know wether to wake up or sleep, but then he started talking.

"God I was a dick to you today. I fucked everything up today. I slept with her because I was mad. Mad that I couldn't be with you. Mad that I couldn't touch you. Mad that I could never have you the way I wanted too. I know, rules have to come first, but fuck the rules. I want to kiss you like I've never kissed a girl before. I want to hold you and never let you go. I want every part of you and yet I can't. At least I know you want me too. I can't believe I was so oblivious to the way you felt about me. God I fucked that up too. I can't have you Tris. I cant and it hurts everywhere. I hate this. I just want you. I love you Tris Prior. I will never stop loving you. No matter what. Even if you do chose that son of a bitch Eric, I would still love you…" I started to giggle, which totally blew my cover. He stoped stroking me and shifted back a bit.

"Tris?" He asked quietly. I shifted a little before sitting up and laughing awkwardly. He stared at me with those deep blue crystal eyes, no expression on his face. He finally moved closer to me, grabbing my hand and looking down at it. The dark was unbearable. I couldn't see hi very well, but my eyes where adjusting.

"Remember, when you had your moms funeral? You let me in a little then, the first real time you let me in. you let me see how vulnerable you can be. It made me think I would be a better protector some how. After the speech you gave, you told me you wouldn't want anyone else to be your guardian? I think that was the best day ever. Kind of made me feel special. I don't know why I'm rambling on about this. I guess our dynamic change. We both depended on each other in this relationship. I always need you like you need me" He finally looked up at me.

He looked broken almost. I saw a tear fall down his beautiful face, dripping off his chin. I moved forward to wipe the tears away.

"I ruined everything" He spat out in disgust. The tears kept coming, and he finally collapsed in my arms. I let his head rest on my crossed legs, and rubbed my hands up and down his arms.

"You may have broken my heart Four, but it's still fixable. What you did hurt like a motherfucking bitch. I'm not going to take you back willingly. You'll have to earn that Four. I can't forgive you for what you did right now, but I can try". I told him. I still hurt when I think about him having sex with some other girl who didn't matter. I wanted him to try to get me back. Do what ever he could possibly do to win me back. I didn't want to let my guard down and let him back in this fast. He would earn me back.

"I'll do whatever it takes to get you back princess" he whispered to me, sitting up slowly and pulling me into his arms. Princess. I loved the way he said that. I didn't mind it anymore. I hated pet names, but this one was a good one.

"Technically I'm a queen now, but its okay" he laughed at this. He pulled back from the hug and ran his fingers down my cheek. He started leaning in to kiss me. I wanted him to kiss me so badly, but it still hurt. Everything still hurt.

I pushed him back gently, smiling at him. He nodded, before standing at the end of the bed.

"I'll get you back. I will. Even if I have to kill the elders and everyone here to do it".

I laughed at him and waved goodbye to him. He winked at me before exiting the room. He opened the door, stoping mid way and turning around to see me.

"I love you Beatrice Prior".

"I guess I love you too Tobias Eaton".
