One Week Later
Tobias POV
It's been one week since I woke up, the doctor's said my body is recovering fast, which is good so I can leave soon. I hate being in hospitals it reminds me of being weak. The police found my attackers apparently someone hired them to kill me. The mastermind of the plan was Nita she wanted me dead for reasons no one knows but one thing I am glad is she didn't succeed all because of the her. Tris. Prior. She saved my life, I owe her, I don't think I could ever repay her. I have been waiting for her to come and visit me so I could personally thank her but she left right away when according to Marcus.
Marcus and I are not on good terms, he is trying to be a good father but it is too late for that he lost me as a son years ago. We will never have that father and son relationship because he ruined it, he never believed, he always doubted me, he beat me, his own son, I was nothing to him and he made me believe I am nothing, that I am a waste of space. He never gave me love that every child loves. I can never forgive him. All I know is I may be broken but I am not beyond repair.
2 days later, Tobias Last day in the hospital
It's my last day in the hospital, I am so glad i hate this place. Marcus left a while ago so it's just me. I hear a knock on my door.
"Come in" I say. No one usually visits me.
"The door opens and I see Tris. I start feeling excited, I really want to thank her personally.
"Hi" She whispers.
"Hi" I say back.
"Um.. I just..'' we both say at the time, we look at each and just start laughing. Once we calmed down, I say "You can go first"
"Well, I came here to tell you that you will be graduating this year, all the teachers decided that you are a hardworking student and smart that you don't need to write the exams. It was only fair. " She smiles. I know she's one who got the school to graduate me, another thing for me to thank her for.
"Thanks" She nods and we just sit in silence, not the awkward silence but the comfortable one.
After a minute I break the silence. 'Thank you"
"For what?" She asks all confused as her nose scrunches, she does that when she is confused she so cute. I sound like a girl.
"For everything, for saving my life, you gave me a second chance at life, I will forever be in your debt. I don't think I could ever repay you."
"Four, you don't need to thank me, i would have saved that person even if it wasn't you. You don't owe me anything if anyone owes anyone it's me, I have been a bitch to you for a while." She looks down to her shoes.
"Hey, you do not need to apologize you had your reasons and you were right it was wrong of me to try and pursue a relationship with you, I could have got you fired, It was my fault, I should have controlled my hormones I shouldn't have forced you into have sex with-"
Tris cuts me off " It wasn't forced if I enjoyed it and wanted to. It's not your fault or mine, we didn't choose to fall in love with each other, it just happen. We don't choose love, love choses us. I don't know you that well four but I know I want to get to know the real not the cocky, badass four but the real four who only showed me that side once in awhile. That's who i fell in love with, the one who made me believe love does exist and sex isn't the only thing that matters in a relationship. "
"You love me?" I ask astonished.
"Really out of the whole speech I just gave you got out was I love you" I nod and Tris rolls her eyes and mumbles, idiot.
"I know I fell for you too, there's something about you that draws me to you, when you first showed me your house it was so dark and lonely like no life in it. No pictures of you or your family in the house, it was just plain. I could tell you didn't like to show emotion and that you keep to yourself most of the time. Also, I know you have your own story and burden but you don't need to carry it all on you own. I'm here as a friend too. Never feel like you're alone because you will always have me there tris."
"Why.. a..a-re you so perfect?" Tris' eyes start to get watery.
"I'm not"
"You know what I realized, you have your own story. Every day at school you put on a fake facade of being the tough guy with no emotion but in the inside you're dying. I never noticed until the night I found you, all weak and broken. Also, I saw Nita yesterday she told me she sent those people to kill you to get revenge on me because she knew I loved you, and how you were an easy target for her since you've been through a lot. I didn't let her tell me your story because it's not her story to tell, it's your story. I'm sorry for everything Nita did to you, she shouldn't have dragged you into any of this mess. " Tris is crying. I hate seeing her cry.
"Come here" I move over to leave space for her to lie down next to me, which she does.
"Tris you have nothing to be sorry about, Nita did it not you. Stop beating yourself and thank you for respecting my privacy. "I kiss the top of head.
"I don't think we should be like this" She points between us. "What if someone walks in. I'm still your teacher. " I chuckle.
"No were Four and Tris. Not Miss. Prior and Four, Just Four and tris"
Tris nods her head " I like it, Four and tris. "
I realized we both our broken but together we can mend each other.
Read A/N
I loved writing this chapter, okay so I know I said there would be a squeal for this book but I think the next chapter should be the last one. But what do you think.
Also, I want to write another book like a Mature maid and prince story or like king and queen and of course it is going to be a fourtris story! Please tell me honestly what you think!
