Tobias-

"Marcus" I spat the word out and noticed the wince he so hard tried to hide "what do you want".

The fake smile I'd learnt to despise over my childhood was plastered across his face, slowly he turned toward Max,

"Some privacy maybe?" Max sniffed before walking out of his apartment, snapping the door shut behind him. A shiver ran down my spine as I realised I was standing in a room with one of my biggest fears, suddenly I didn't feel scared anymore, I felt angry at the vile creature standing before me.

"Tobias, Tobias, Tobias" he uttered my name in a false soothing tone

"You have no right to call me that, not anymore" his smile grew even wider which only made the anger in me boil up even more.

"But I am your fath-" I strode across the room and pinned him up the wall by his neck.

"Don't. Even. Say. It". I paused between every word, hoping he'd hear the force of meaning behind them "now tell me what you want, old man".

"To-" I pressed my hand further into his neck "Four" he gasped breathlessly, "we need your help in abnegation" he struggled for air to talk so I loosened my grip, slightly.
"Andrew Prior is in danger" at the name 'Prior' I dropped my hold on him completely, Marcus crumpled to the floor, gulping for air.
I towered over him until he was able to speak again.

"The erudite are finding ways to attack the abnegation leaders, we need protection".

Tris-
Today had started off nicely. After Tobias left at breakfast; me, Chris and Eleanor decided to go for a shopping session while Uriah, Zeke and Will went back to the apartment with Harley to watch the football. We browsed around shops for what felt like hours, I brought two new black dresses, figure hugging but not too revealing, a pair of new, very sleek, very dauntless black heels, a lacy black top and some new accessories.
I was dead beat and decided I'd better go back to the apartment and see Tobias, Chris and Eleanor bid me goodbye and I walked out the pit, up to mine and Tobias' apartment. Opening the door I flung the bags down, closed the door and walked into the living room.

"Tobias? What's wrong?"

Tobias sat on the edge of the settee, his hands pressing heavily down either side of him, he looked tense.
I walked over and stood in front of him, placing my hands gently behind his neck.
He was scaring me now, what could possibly be the matter?

"Tris" he barely whispered

"What is it?" I whispered back, not wanting to break the already fragile silence. Tears were streaming down his cheeks yet his face was composed, I wiped them away and kissed his forehead lightly. He pulled me gently by the waist, letting me embrace him fully. He needed comforting more than anything right now.

"Tris, they want me to go to abnegation, to protect the leaders, apparently I have to do this assignment before I can quit being a dauntless leader" I heard the pain in his voice.

"WHAT?! Who are 'they' Tobias?! Tell me now or so help me God-"

"Tris" he was standing now "believe me, its useless trying to get out of this; you need to remember your father is a leader so I'll be protecting him, I promise I'll keep him safe"

"Then let me come with you" I pleaded.

"No, Tris your worth too much to risk your life senselessly, I won't allow you to come" I heard the finality in his voice and decided not to argue against it.

"Tobias, as much as I love my father you are my family now, I want you to be here with me, safe."

Was there any point in trying to hide the sorrow I felt? Tears flowed freely down my cheeks, Tobias crashed his lips to mine. I knew he had to do this because not only was he dauntless he was still abnegation.

"When do you have to go?"
He looked into my eyes, tears silently falling down his face.

"Tomorrow at noon" he closed his eyes and looked away, letting the realisation fully absorb.
My Tobias was going to defend my father, putting his life at risk and neither of us knew how long this assignment would last. Days, weeks, months or years. Only time could tell.
I put my hands on either side of Tobias' face and gently pulled his mouth to mine. "I will wait for you" I dropped my gaze before adding "if that's what you want, of course".
It had only just dawned on me that Tobias might not want the hassle of keeping a wife.

"Tris" he said sternly "don't you ever think that, I love you and that will never change"

"I love you too" was all I could manage to say.
I never thought fate could be so cruel.

The night seemed to pass quickly. I treasured every second I had with Tobias, knowing soon enough he would have to leave and there was nothing I could do to stop it. More bad news seemed to strike as Uriah and Zeke were also appointed as bodyguards, although this meant more lives at stake I couldn't help but feel a sense of relief. Tobias wouldn't be alone.
As noon loomed closer Me, Tobias, Christina, Uriah, Harley and Zeke headed toward the train tracks in silence. What words could be said to make any of us feel better?
We all took our turn of holding each other and saying our goodbyes before eventually I ended up back in Tobias' arms, Christina hugging Zeke whilst Uriah cried silently with Harley pressed to his chest.

"ZEKE!" We all turned to look at the small figure running towards us, hair flying backwards as the wind whipped against her.

"Shauna!"
Zeke surged forwards meeting her and pulling her into him, crashing his lips against hers. It warmed my heart to see them like this. I pressed my head against Tobias' chest, listening to the steady beat of his heart, knowing that as long as blood still pumped through his veins I would be happy.

"Tobias, promise you'll write to me" I looked into his eyes and watched the small smile play around his lips.

"Only if you promise to write back"

"Looks like we have a deal Mr Eaton" I pressed my lips to his

"So it seems Mrs Eaton"
We shared one last passionate kiss before we heard the shudder of the train tracks.

A/N So there is no war, the abnegation just need a few bodyguards. Poor Trissy, Chrissy, Shaussy& Harssy – I've more than likely made mistakes in this but really haven't got the energy to check over it yet.

Thank you for all the reviews, means a lot.

Have a nice day/night.

I'm off to watch Mrs Browns Boys

'Mammy!?'
