Author's Note: Guys, thank you so much for all the wonderful reviews! I was grinning as I read them all. One person even made an account to review for this. I am so sorry for the delayed update, unfortunately my sister had to go to the emergency room so I couldn't publish this. Btw, jerk alert for this chapter! Hope you guys like it!
Four's POV
I can't believe that just happened. Tris just saw me shirtless! And I actually kissed her forehead. This is bad. Christina can not find out. Tris is gonna come to her senses when she wakes up, and she's gonna tell Christina, I know it.
I need to go back to being the cold hearted instructor, Four, and not Tobias. I can't end things with Christina now, Tris would hate me for hurting her friend. I forget all of this as I hold her body in my arms. It feels... Perfect. Much more perfect then it ever did with Christina.
She's always wanting to kiss and cuddle and frankly, it gets annoying. I caress Tris' hair gently, and she slumps down onto my lap as she sleeps. The corners of my mouth turn up. She's adorable when she sleeps.
I want so badly to stay here and fall asleep with her, but unfortunately if someone caught us we would both be in trouble. I remind myself that I'm doing this for Tris, even though I don't want to go back to my room and turn back into Instructor Four.
I bite my lip and gently push Tris off of my lap. She falls back onto the couch, still out. I write her a quick note and leave the room, starting down the hall. When I get to my room, I shove open the door and instantly fume as I see who's in here with me.
Eric is standing there in front of me, grinning. His arms are crossed and he looks as sadistic as ever. The metal in his piercings are glinting when the light hits them.
I narrow my eyes and try to relax, even though this idiot is in my apartment. "What the heck are you doing in my apartment?" I ask in the normal Instructor Four tone, crossing my arms.
Eric shrugs. "Oh, I don't know. I thought I would pay you a visit. See my best buddy, Four," he says with a smirk, punching my shoulder too hard to be friendly.
Now he's testing my last nerve. This idiot thinks he can just come into my room and joke around? "Eric, stop wasting my time. What do you want?" I ask, the anger visible in my voice.
Eric smirks at that. "I know you like Tris. Just admit it, Four," he says, walking in a circle around me.
I turn to face him and send him a glare. "I don't know where you got that piece of information from, Eric, but if you think you can come here and hold blackmail me you're wrong." I reply evenly.
Eric tilts his head back and lets out a dry laugh. "Four, I'm a Dauntless leader. I think everyone will believe my word over yours. And I got that information from you. You and Lauren's little conversation, Four. That's how I know. I'm not an idiot, I can read the signs." Eric spits out.
I raise an eyebrow, although I'm shocked at his words. "You're not an idiot? Whoever said that must be stupider then you," I insult him.
Eric's eyes narrow and he grabs my shirt, slamming me up against the wall. "Stop messing around. You have a choice, Four. You can break it off with Tris and Christina and I won't tell either of them. Or you can cheat on Christina with that little blonde brat and I'll tell Christina." he says.
I push him away from me. "I'm not a coward, Eric, and I'm defiantly not afraid of you. So, I'll give you two choices. Get out of here and I won't kick the crap out of you, or stay here and I will. Your choice," I mock him, still glaring.
Eric smirks at me for the 70th time. "I thought you'd say that. I know you probably don't care if I tell Christina, so if you don't break it off and maybe even leave Dauntless, I might have to make sure both of them get in a little... Accident. Anyways, you have two days to make a decision. Otherwise, it's bye-bye for your girlfriend and your plaything." he tells me, and then leaves my room.
I slam the door after him and collapse onto the bed, my decision already made. I have to break it off with Christina and leave Tris alone, to protect them. No matter how much it'll hurt, it's better then death.
Christina's POV
I wonder if Tris is okay. I feel a little guilty for just leaving her but I had to. Maybe I'll go over to her apartment later. I open the door, heading to Will's room to hang out when I bump into Four.
I look up at him and grin. "Hey, Four. What's up?" I ask.
His expression is blank, which is normal. Sometimes I wonder why I'm even still with him. But then again, look at those muscles.
"We need to talk."
I wonder what he wants to talk about. Ugh, he's always so serious though. Maybe I'll bring that up in our 'talk'.
I nod. "Okay, let's talk,"
Four walks into my room and let's out a sigh. He looks guilty. I wonder why?
"I don't think this is gonna work out. I'm sorry, but I can't explain it to you right now, okay? It's complicated." he tells me.
I blink away the tears that come next. What's wrong with me that he doesn't want to be with me anymore? Why is he calling it off?
"But... Why, Four? We were good together." I say quietly.
Four just stands there. "I can explain this, Christina. Just give me some time." and with that he's gone.
I don't even bother closing the door. I practically fall onto the floor and sob. What the heck was that? Does he even care about me? Obviously not! Maybe it's another girl. I just can't believe this. It's ridiculous! Or maybe he's gay? No, that can't be it. Although he does spend a lot of time with Zeke... No, he can't be gay. It's not even an option. Whatever it is, though, I'll find out. I promise myself that.
Author's Note: That was way short, but atleast I did two yesterday. Hope you guys like it! And this will be the only chapter today, but every Sunday maybe I'll do what I did yesterday. :)
