For You Chapter 9
Tobias POV
I push Tris behind me. Shielding her with my body. I see that all the boys have done the same with their girlfriends. "Stay back." I say. The men just laugh.
That's when the shooting begins.
The room erupts in screams, but it's not the scream of us, it's the screams of the men. Tris, Ana and Percy have slipped out from behind me, and I see three dead men, knives in their chests, blood seeping out of the wounds. They are all shooting guns, each shot, hitting the men in the chest. The final man drops to the floor. But no before he shoots his gun, the bullet aimed at Tris.
I run, and knock Tris down, the bullet hits a pot on the mantle, causing it to shatter. The shards fly in all directions. The shards knock a picture down, which hits a light fixture near us. I grab Percy and Ana, and pull them under me. The shards fly everywhere, narrowly missing me, and the rest of the gang.
I stand up, pulling the three up with me. I see a note in one of the man's hands. I look at it, and read it aloud
Beatrice,
50 men, all out to kill you. I am your 51st.
Hate,
Andrew
So 50 men are out to kill us. Subtract the three from earlier, and the ten from now. 37 men left, or 38 with Tris' father. "37 or 38 men left to kill us." Will says, voicing my thoughts. Tris starts to cry. I wrap her in my arms, while Will takes the bodies to the police station.
Tris POV
Four is being so kind. I don't know, but I think I like him. But I know he will never like me. Who would want an ugly, damaged girl, with two siblings she has to take care of? He will never like me back.
Tobias POV
I think I like Tris. I know I hated her before, but now, I'm not sure. She is so cute, strong and brave. Plus, I already love Percy and Ana, they are like the siblings I always wanted. I need to get Tris to like me back.
We go upstairs, and I pull Chris aside. "Chris, I think I like Tris." I say. Chris has the widest smile on her face. "THAT IT AMAZING!" she yells. "Four finally has a crush! And between you and me, I think she likes you too!" she says excitedly. My heart surges with hope. "Really?" I ask
"We just need to be sure…" Chris says. She taps her chin, "I GOT IT! Truth or Dare!" I smile, hopefully she like me.
Tris POV
I have been sitting in their lounge, with Percy and Ana on my lap. Christina and Four have been gone for a while. When they come back into the lounge, Christina has the biggest smile on her face. "We need to have some fun, forget about tonight! Let's play some truth or dare!" she says. I smile, I need that. I played it a couple of times at Caleb's. "Yeah! Only Percy and Ana, do you want to play?" I ask. They shake their heads no, they never liked T or D. Uri gives them His and Zeke's 3ds' to them to play games. Apparently the group had collected lots of gaming stations. We get into a circle to play.
"Since it was my idea, I will go first." Chris says. She scans the group for a victim, her eyes land on Uri.
"Uri! T or D!" she shouts. "DARE! I'm no pansycake!" Uri says back
"I dare you to not eat cake for a whole week." She says. Uri gasps, and rips of his shirt, with np hesitation. "Will, Truth or Dare?" Uri asks Will. "Truth" he responds
"Who was your first kiss?" Uri asks
"Christina." He says blushing. Christina smiles widely.
"Chris?" he says
"Dare" she responds? "Dare ya' to kiss me." He says smugly. Chris smiles, and leans over, and starts to kiss him. 3 minutes later, they are still kissing. "GET A ROOM!" Four, Uri, Zeke, and I all yell, while I chuck a pillow at them. The pull away, angry looks on their faces. Christina looks at me. "Tris, who do you like?" she asks me. Crap. "You didn't let me choose." I say, trying to avoid the question. "Truth, I ask you who you like, Dare, I dare you to tell me." She says. I see Ana and Percy listening in. I give in, not wanting to take of an article of clothing. "I like…"
Tobias POV
Tris seems to have an internal battle in her mind. She opens her mouth,
"I like… Four" She whispers my name out. I smile so much it hurts, I'm so happy she likes me. Her face is really red, she is so cute! I see Percy and Ana smiling in the corner.
Percy POV (Surprise!)
I am glad mom likes Four, secretly, I think they liked each other since the beginning. And I think Four would be a great dad.
Ana POV (Another surprise!)
YAY! Mom likes Four, I like him the best out of all the guys. He is so nice to us. I just hope he likes her back.
Tris POV
I am so embarrassed. But I decide to continue the game, to spare me anymore humiliation.
"Mar, T or D?" I ask. "D" she replies. "Dare you to give Uri a makeover." She pulls her jacket off, "NO, Uri will not be pretty in my make up." She says. Uri just looks relieved. She gets and evil smile. "Four, You know the question." Four says truth with no hesitation. "Who do you like?" NO! They know I like him, I don't need to be crushed by him saying who he likes. He smiles "I like…"
Tobias POV
"Tris" I finish. Her face looks shocked. I pull her into my lap, and gently kiss her cheek. She blushes. I lean down, "Since we both like each other, will you go out with me?" I whisper into her ear. She blushes again, and whispers back "Yes" she says. I smile and kiss her square on the lips. I hear in the background, "I'm glad mom chose him, he is the best choice." Ana. "I know, I'm glad too" Percy. I feel Tris smile into the kiss. I smile as well. Despite today's events, today is the best day of my life.
I decided not to put a cliff hanger in the chapter, and instead put fluff! 2 days to go till my birthday!
