Thought I'd egg started on a chapter two, Tris wakes up in the chapter. Hope you enjoy :)
It's been 3 days since I returned from Chicago and still there is no change with Tris, I can't take it the waiting the tiny faulter in her heart beats every now and then scaring me to death, the doctors say it's normal that the death serum is just making it's way out of her body but my wild mind can't help but think of it as something more sinister. I can't seem to sleep I lie aimlessly in my bunk thoughts taking hold of me both of Tris and Uriah, he's still managing to hold on however he's getting weaker everyday and we know he won't last much longer... life's cruel it takes what's most precious to you and damages it beyond repair. Zeke hasn't been able to talk to me since we've got back and I don't blame him, I feel as if I've cut myself off from every one else going into my own little bubble of misery 'Snap the hell out of it' I scold myself Zeke's going to loose a brother and Hana a son and what have you lost nothing! you've gained a mother and the love of your life is going to be ok! That's why I didn't belong in abnegation selfishness is still within me. Fine I'm going for a walk I need to clear my head... Again. I walk sluggishly through the halls with no regard of where I'm going or where I am to think of it, I just focus on my breathing in and out, in and out, in and...
I wake with a start I'm not in my bunk but in the family tree room, the room where me and Tris said our goodbyes. The thin beam of light gently touches my face and gives me a warm safe sensation, all I can think about is thank God I managed to get some sleep i feel more refreshed today's going to be a good day I can feel it.
I have a shower to wake me up fully and head back to the dorm with the first smile on my face in days. I walk straight to my bunk lie down and breathe in the fresh clean air of freshly laundered clothes. Then it hits me every one has a grim look upon their faces, I don't even have to ask I know it means Uriah's gone and that wipes the smile right of my face, I slowly walk over to Christina 'When did it happen?' I say trying not to let the tears leave my eyes. 'Early this morning Zeke and Hana were there when it happened, the funerals in three days, I'm sorry Four' with the last word she breathes heavily and leaves the dorm. Poor Zeke, Uriah meant the whole world to him but there's no point in me giving him a consoling word it would just make it worse he needs his time to grieve and that's what I'm more than willing to give him.
Once the news has settled in I head over to the infirmary where Tris is, I instantly smell the sterile floors and breathe in the scent of disinfectant. This is what gives me comfort at the moment it reminds me of Tris, my beautifully damaged Tris. As I'm at her door I see Caleb walk out, looks like he wants to make it up to her, to little too late. 'Tobias I heard about Uriah I'm sorry...' He says trying to be sincere 'What do you care Caleb I thought you liked it when people died' I say with a bitter taste in my mouth, I ram his shoulder as he passes I still blame him for what's happened to Tris. The sweet sound of her heart beat can be heard on the monitor the second I step foot into the room, I'm home again. I take my usual seat by her side and nonchalantly grab her calloused hand 'Hey sorry I'm late' I faulter 'Um... i thought I should tell you that Uriah died today, I know you've forgiven me but I can't help but blame myself Tris it's all my fault, Uriah, you all of it you're the most important person to me in the world Beatrice... What am I going to do?' my voice cracking on each word I'm answered by silence, i sigh. 'You can start by not calling me Beatrice' the small broken voice breaks the silence, my Tris my life she's back. 'Tris, oh thank God what do you need water meds any thing tell me...' I say panicky. She smiles that sweet warm smile at me 'I've got all I need right here Tobias, and it's not your fault I'm the foolish one I went instead of Caleb and it nearly meant I'd loose you' I can see the small tear travel down her left check I wipe it away as soft as I can. I sigh with relief she safe. She doesn't hate me. 'Tris as much as i hate the swine that is your brother, I understand why you did it, it's not because you are the bravest girl I have ever met, it's because you are pure of heart and you see the good in all people, you saw the good in me, and you completed me, Tris I love you' she correspondingly wipes the tear of my check and I laugh 'Since when did you start taking care of me Beatrice Prior' I say warmly through my tears. She gives me a warm smile back shifts so she is sat up and says the only words I needed to hear 'I love you Tobias Eaton'
End of chapter two I hope you liked it next chapter will be about Uriah's funeral but will have lots of Tris and Tobias too. Remember to review. Thank you
