Accidental Betrayal

Chapter 5

Peter pov

I walked to the Faction Hall looking at the map Tori had drawn me, even though I knew the route. I walked up the marble steps and sat at the top. "Why was she at Tori's?" I ask myself. She only goes there when she was upset. Was she upset? Was she talking about me? How am I supposed to know? I pull my hood down and shook my now black hair, which I dyed. I don't like it. It feels heavy not like my golden brown I had before. Would she have recognized me? I kept my hood up the whole time. Did she recognize my voice? I got up from the top of the steps and headed down. Where should I go?

I walked around the hall of rooms until I spotted one familiar. I turn the knob on the door and it opened. I coughed. There was so much dust in this one room. The one room that has only been used once, my room. Little did I see the faint markings of footprints hidden under the dust?

I quickly fell asleep on the dusty bed. I will clean it tomorrow.

When I woke up I felt dirty. No wonder, I slept in a dirty bed. I got up and dusted myself off. I started the shower and looked for any bugs in the tub. I took a quick shower and went back out into my dusty room. I decided to use my dirty yellow shirt from Amity to clean it up.

It took me awhile but my room was finally presentable. I hear the knob of my door turn and SHE stepped in. I straightened up and threw the dust yellow shirt in the corner of the room. "Hello." I said. She jumped like a foot.

"You're not supposed to be in here. This someone's room." she said trying to defend my property.

"You don't recognize me?" I ask. She shook her head. "What if I was already a dauntless citizen and this was my room?"

"Then you would be…. oh my Peter!" She realized and hugged me. I smiled. I missed this.

"I missed you so much." I whisper in her ear.

"I missed…" she broke off, "I'm sorry I'm so sorry Peter I did not know where you were. Peter I am getting married to Tobias in about two months." I don't remember getting mad at her but I soon found my hands around her neck. I could hear her struggling to say "Peter stop". I loosened my hands and let her go. She fell to the floor. I hurt her. I hurt Tris Prior.
