All rights to Veronica Roth… I own nothing

He sits in the corner of the room, not saying a word. His chin rest in his hands and he stares out the windows. Every so often he lets out a loud exhale and readjusts. Aside from that, he hasn't spoken in over an hour. I'm starting to get concerned. Tobias isn't exactly a very forward person to begin with, so when he gets quiet it's hard to read him. All I can do at this point is sit back, watch and wait.

Suddenly.

" I'm done." He speaks. " I'm through."

" What's that?" I say, approaching him. I know his anger isn't with me, but I still do so cautiously. I step to him and place my hand upon his shoulder. He hardly even notices it. Slowly I crouch next to him. Blankly his eyes scan the skyline.

" Tobias?"

" If I'm right, and I don't really doubt that I am, she has a hand in all of this and she's probably near the top of the chain. Why would she do this? Why would she make a plea to be a family again and do this? Why does she hate me so much? She was never meant to be a mother. Never. It's not in her to be one. She's hardly even a human. All that she's done. Unforgivable. She knew. All this time she knew and she kept on pretending. Pretending that she cared, pretending that she loved. To love is something someone with a soul can do. Evelyn has no soul."

He pauses for a moment, licking his lips. With a guff noise he stands. I stand with him and try to keep him steady. Before I can do anything, he pulls me into him by my neck.

" I swear to you. If she does anything to hurt you, harm you or even fucking speak to you, I will kill her. "

I feel the vibrations in his chest as he speaks and it's like the hum of a generator. It's sturdy and deep. I once saw a flash of this anger before. It was when Peter had attacked me with Drew and Al.

" Come on! " He says, swinging me around and heading for the door, " We're getting out of here! I need some fucking air!"

I grab my coat as he pulls me along, " Where are we going?"

" The roof."

Before we actually make it there I convince him to stop by Zeke's apartment and after much convincing, he joins us.

" You shouldn't be doing this!" Zeke calls out as he tries to keep up our pace. Tobias is in such a mood, I nearly have to run to keep up with him. The rest of the way up I listen to Zeke continually call out to him, but he never answers. He doesn't even speak until we reach the roof access door.

" FUCKING HELL!" he cries out, bashing the door open and engulfing himself in the cold air. We stop at the doorway and watch as he tumbles forward, his hands on his knees and breathes deeply.

" Wanna tell me what's going on?" Zeke says, making awkward eye contact with me.

" He spoke to Evelyn this morning. He thinks she has something to do with all of this." I tell him, keeping my eyes on Tobias. He is standing up straight now, but is yet to turn around.

Zeke steps forward and turns to face me, taking my attention of what was going on in front of me." What makes him think that?"

" It's hard to say. He was speaking in broken sentences! " I tell him, " He kept mentioning someone. Some guy, Abe…Abe Fitter I think he said."

I watch as Zeke's eyes get a little wider and his mouth twitches. " What exactly was said?"

"The Fitter's are gone!" Tobias shouts over the rooftop towards us, " someone told Evelyn that the Fitter's were gone. It took me a little while to grasp what I had heard. But I knew!" He turns and walks to us, keeping his head down.

" That could mean any..."

" Zeke!" Tobias interrupts him, " What do your instincts tell you?"

We watch as Zeke takes a moment and processes this, but before long his face becomes less hard and he chews on the inside of his cheek a little.

" What do you want to do?" I inquired.

Tobias turns and looks out over the city again, letting out a heavy sigh. He's conflicted on his coming actions. " Well, " He explains, " Nothing!"

Before we can question him he buts in, raising his hand. " Hey! I said nothing! She asked me to have dinner with her. I'll go, and while I'm there I will try to get some information. It's best if we don't move just yet or we could lose all sight of David. No, we're staying below radar. I'm going to remain in hiding until I meet with Evelyn. Although while it's still warm enough we're going to take as much roof access as we please!" He says, rolling his eyes to Zeke, " We're going crazy in there!"

Zeke lets a small crack of a smile pull at the corner of his mouth. " Alright! That's far enough! So we wait?"

" We wait!" Tobias confirms. He takes my hand and squeezes it a little, " It'll be worth it!"

We hang out for a few moments and enjoy the air before we head back down the stairs. Tobias is still very tense, I can feel it coming off of him in waves. I don't know how he will handle Evelyn, but I have a solid feeling that he wouldn't hesitate to kill her. She's had every last chance to do right by him, and she's repeatedly hurt him, in every possibly conceivable way. Tobias is right, she is a monster!

We leave Zeke at his floor and head one lower to our own. When we enter our place, it has a new feeling. No longer our prison there seems to be a calming sensation to it. I turn to ask him if he's hungry, but I see he's heading right for the bedroom. Interested, I follow him. With a heavy exhale, he flops himself onto the bed. I lay down beside him and he pulls me in close with a noise best resembling a hum. He's worried but he won't speak of it. He's worried mostly because he wondering what sort of involvement Evelyn has. I'd be lying if I said there wasn't a deep part of me that worried the same thing. But I will just have to wait. Right now my only thought is to watch the world melt away while, so I close my eyes and breathe him in.

Writer's note: sorry i haven't written in a while. Things are very crazy right now and on top of it all we are planning a move so it's been hard to find time these past few weeks. So basically if it takes me a few days to post a new chapter don't get discouraged :)
