A/N: Sorry I haven't updated in a while! I've been busy with school, and I just now went back to gymnastics after being hurt for six weeks!
BTW: Eric did not rape Christina! He tried to, but all he accomplished was getting her shirt off! She still had pants on, and her bra was still intact! Sorry if it was confusing!
Chapter 3
Tris's POV:
"It...it was Eric."
My heart starts to race, and I can feel my eyes nearly come out of their socket. What did he do? Whatever he did, he was going to pay, and I'll make sure of it. My mouth feels like cotton, and I'm unable to speak. I'm afraid that if I open my mouth, it will result in me saying something that I would regret later.
No, I shouldn't regret anything I say about Eric, he doesn't deserve it. He's a mean, lying, manipulating bastard, and he deserves what is coming to him.
I look over at Christina, she has her face buried in her knees, and I can hear her sobs through the fabric of her jeans. I have never seen her so vulnerable, it makes me want to cry and beat Eric to a pulp at the same time, I'm not sure which one I should do first.
"What…..what happened?" My voice cracking as I ask.
She looks up at me, and I stare into her deep brown eyes. She's hurt, but not just physically, also emotionally. She looks like she's about to crack.
I can tell she is about to say something, but she turns her head to the opposite wall, and takes deep shaky breaths. I then notice the huge gash in the side of her head, and there is blood dripping down everywhere.
She clearly needs to go see a doctor, how could I have been so selfish not to see this before. I was so keen on knowing what happened, that I let my needs come before hers. Stupid…..I mutter under my breath.
"Christina. I think we need to get you to the infirmary," I say, concerned.
"No….I can't," she says. "I won't let anyone see me like this."
I knew this would happen; her head is as hard as a rock. But, she needs to go before she loses too much blood.
"You need to go. You're going to get sick," I say.
"No, Tris. I don't think you get it….." she stops mid-sentence.
"Christina, tell me what happened."
She starts to sob once more, and I pull her into me, letting her head rest on my shoulder.
"It's going to be okay, everything will be fine," I reassure her, while stroking her hair.
My body tingles with rage, he did this to her. Eric hurt her, and he deserves to get thrown into the chasm.
"He forc….forced himself on me," her words take me back a little.
I remember what had happened to me at the chasm, when Peter touched me. I remember how that made me feel, how it felt to feel so weak.
It still gives me a bitter taste in my mouth.
Tobias's POV:
I've been sitting in my apartment for what seems like days. Tris has only been gone for three hours, but it seems more than that. I know she can take care of herself, but some part of me thinks that something bad has happened.
When I can't take it any longer, I decide to go down to the Pit. I need to find her.
As I'm running through the halls, I spot Zeke, so I run towards him.
"Zeke," I shout.
He turns his head in my direction, and starts running to me, grinning from ear to ear.
I honestly don't see how he is always so happy and full of charisma all the time. Before I met Tris, I hardly ever cracked a joke, I was always so serious. Well, besides for when I was drunk.
"Hey man," he says. "What's up?"
"Nothing. Have you seen Tris?"
"Oh, you mean your girly friend?" He smirks.
"Yes," I say annoyed. "I haven't seen her since early this morning, and I'm starting to get a little worried."
"Awe, isn't that cute! The legendary Four is worried about his girlfriend!" he says, in an awed voice.
Now, I'm starting to get seriously annoyed.
"Zeke, c'mon I'm serious! Have you seen her?"
"Okay, okay!" He puts his hands up in defense.
"No, I haven't seen her," he starts to say. "But, I did walk past a very bloody Eric and Will, and Uriah was walking behind them. Something about Christina…I'm not sure, but she may be in the dorms."
"Okay, thanks," remembering Tris telling she was looking for her.
I give him a slap on the back, and I make my way to the dorms.
A/N: Yes, I know it would've been longer, but I decided to end it here. I haven't updated in a while, and I didn't want you guys to wait any longer!:D
Until next time
XOXO, -V
P.S. I hate passive voice! Like so freaking much!D:
