A/N- hi guys! I'm actually updating in a reasonable time. It's such a shock isn't it?

I officially have over 100k views on my story Beatrice Eaton and that is definitely the highlight of my life. This is absolutely amazing.

Because of this happiness and excitement, this is going to be an eventful chapter. Enjoy.

I've also decided to try to update every day I don't have to work this summer. This probably won't end well.

Disclaimer- I own nothing.

Tris' Point of View:

With the help of Dan, we had a successful trial and Marcus was arrested for child abuse. Tobias is finally free from him. Marcus will be in prison for the next 15 years. Tobias has already moved back to his apartment and healed enough to become a functional human again. Tobias and I are still very happy together, though Christina is still the only one to know that we are together. I want to start telling people soon though.

"Hey Tris!" Tobias' voice appears.

I turn away from joy locker and smile when I see him. "Hey!" I glance around the hallway and when I notice that no one is watching us or looking in our direction, I quickly reach up and give him a short kiss. "Let's go to lunch."

We walk side by side to the cafeteria, our hands brushing against each other occasionally, not too noticeably though. I wish we could hold hands in public. Both of us are just too afraid, I think.

All of our friends are already at our usual table, involved in some apparently fascinating conversation.

"Hi, guys." I join in.

"Hey Tris." They all say in unison. That's just slightly creepy.

"Tris, Four, did you hear?" Zeke asks excitedly.

I laugh. "Did you finally find yourself a boyfriend?"

"No." He pouts. "I'm not going to tell you now because you said that."

"Fine." I shrug. "Is it really that important?"

"Nope." Zeke says stubbornly, crossing his arms over his chest.

"Yes!" Marlene exclaims. "Peter and Eric just got together!"

"Seriously?" Tobias asks in shock.

The entire table nods, confirming it.

"Well, shit." I mutter. Peter and Eric are the two biggest asses in the school. Together, they will be an unstoppable force to make everyone's school life a living hell. They've already done that, but now it will only be worse.

"That's just wonderful." Tobias says. I can't tell if he was being sarcastic or not. "Any other relationship drama going on?"

Uriah nods. "Will and I are perfect together and he's really cute." Uriah winks at Will, who is blushing.

I roll my eyes and the conversation switches to pretty much everything we can talk about before the bell rings.

Tobias and I walk back to my locker together. "Want to come to my apartment after school?" He asks.

I nod. "Sure. I'll text my dads."

"Okay. Meet me at my car after 9th period."

I agree, walking to my science class with Mr. Franceschi. Before class starts, I quickly send a text to Johnnie and Kyle telling them I'm going to Tobias' after school. Kyle almost immediately responds telling me not to come home too late and to be sure to use protection.

Science and history drag on, but finally, after hat seems like thousands of years, the bell rings. I rush out the room to meet Tobias by his car. I only have to wait about a minute before he shows up and unlocks the door.

"Hey beautiful." He says, kissing me softly once we get inside the vehicle.

"Hi, Tobias." I smile.

He puts on the radio and we sing along to the songs playing together until we get to his apartment.

We almost immediately cuddle on the couch with a blanket and a giant bowl of popcorn and a random movie playing on the small tv screen.

Hardly paying attention to the movie, I just get lost in my thoughts. I feel so comfortable and safe in Tobias' arms. I care about him so much and I want to be able to share that with the whole world. I think I'm falling in love with him.

"Hey, Tobias?" I ask, breaking the silence in the room.

He turns his head away from the mobile to look at me. "Yeah?"

"Do you think," I pause for a second, thinking of a way to ask. "Can we come out to our friends?"

He instantly shakes his head no. "I'm sorry, Tris. I can't."

"Why not?" I ask, getting slightly angry.

"I just can't, Tris." He sighs. "You know what my father did to me. I can't do it again."

"Yeah but that was your already abusive father! These are our friends! I've known them for years. I know they'll be okay with it."

"What if they aren't?"

I'm outraged by now. "What is this, Tobias? Am I not good enough for you? Do you not actually care about me? Was this all just a joke to you?"

"Tris-"

"No." I cut him off. "I trust them. Why can't we tell them? I really care about you and I don't want to keep it a secret."

"I'm sorry, Tris." He whispers.

"Well you clearly don't care about me enough. Do you even trust me at all?" I exclaim.

"Of course I trust you but I can't do this! You don't understand how hard this is for me. Why won't you listen to me?"

"Because they're our friends, not your father!" I stand up, throwing the blanket back onto the couch. "I thought you actually cared about me. I guess I was wrong. I guess I'm just an embarrassment that you don't care about enough to tell our closest friends. We're over, Tobias."

Tobias stands up. "Fine, Tris. You clearly don't care about me either." He turns away and walks into his bedroom.

Boiling with anger, I exit his apartment, slamming the door behind me. At first, I'm furious. I can't understand how he could compare his horrible excuse for a father to our loyal friends who care about us so much, it wouldn't change the way they thought about us at all to know that we are straight.

As I rush back home, I notice the tears roll limb down my face. The anger and pain piling up on me right now hits its limit and I break. I collapse to the ground, no longer finding the motivation to move. Doubt fills my thoughts. Why wasn't I good enough for him? We both know that our friends would be fine with us. Did he even care about me? Does he care at all that I left? Was he even straight at all or was this just a way for him to hurt me? Was it his plan to make me fall in love before breaking my heart?

Tobias' Point of View:

Hearing the door slam shut, I know I screwed up. Tris left me. She's the first and only person that I've trusted in years. I haven't gotten close to anyone since Zayn left and that was years ago. Now I found someone I truly care about, maybe even love, and I lost her, just because of my irrational fear.

It's all my fault. I'm not ready to tell everyone even though I know I should be. Our friends are not like Marcus. I shouldn't be afraid of them, but I am.

I'm so, so sorry, Tris.

A/N- please don't murder me.

Most of the excitement in all of my stories is just something people will hate me for. And somehow I'm not mad about it. I never said it would be good eventful.

Will and Uriah are so cute though.

Bye guys thanks for reading. Hopefully I'll update again soon.
