Chapter 16
Of course we had to be interrupted. And of course it had to be Al. He wasn't giving up. I had remembered him, and what he had done. And he was still pushing for me to be with him.
"I'm kissing my wife." Tobias said angrily. "Is that a problem?"
"Yeah it is, since she's not your wife," retorted Al. He walked over to me, grabbed my waist, pulled me toward him, and pressed his forehead to mine. "Why didn't you tell me?" he asked. Tell him what? "I had to find overhear the news from Christina. Why didn't you tell me that we are going to have a baby?" Tobias stepped forward, but I waved him back. I could handle this on my own.
The first thing I did was push him away from me. "I didn't tell you, because it doesn't involve you." I said, getting really pissed at this everlasting game.
"How does it not involve me? I helped create this baby!" he shouted. His voice was growing really loud. I knew the initiates had heard him say baby. And, as I expected, surprised faces were peeking through the glass window.
"Al!" I seethed. "I remember. Everything. I remember how you tried to kill me. I am not falling for this act. I am with Four. You will not change that. You are really pissing me off. Stay away from me, ok? Stress isn't good for a pregnant lady who also just got attacked." Al looked immensely upset, but I didn't care. He was getting on my last nerve. "Leave. Don't talk to me. Ever." I added, my voice filled with venom.
"Fine," he said. "I'll leave you alone. But when this baby is old enough, it will know the truth. It will know who its real father is!" Al then stormed off down the hallway.
When he was gone, I turned away, screaming in fury. Why won't he just give this whole charade up? I refuse to let this go on any further. I will do almost anything to make him stop!
Tobias pulled me into a hug. "It's ok," he whispered into my hair. "He won't get anywhere near our baby. I'd have to kill him if he ever even looks at him or her."
I just nodded. This was too stressful for me. "I'm going to the apartment," I said into his chest. "I can't deal with this anymore." He nodded and kissed me on the forehead before letting me go. The only thing I would do when I got home, was sleep.
Tobias P.O.V
As I watched Tris walk away, I braced myself for the reaction of the initiates. When I walked towards the training room door, the initiates backed out of the way. For a while, all of us stood there in an awkward silence. Then Mike spoke.
"Is it true?" he asked quietly. "Is Six really pregnant?" All I did was nod.
"Who was that guy?" asked Rachel.
"That was Al," I explained. "He was in the same initiation as her. A couple weeks in, he and two other guys attacked her while she was alone. They almost killed her. But he has been in love with her since he met her. And he is trying to convince her that he is her boyfriend. But it's not true. The baby is not his, its mine."
"Oh," said Rachel.
"Will Six be ok?" asked Jessie.
"Yeah," I said. "She'll be fine. She just needs to rest. Now, remember that tomorrow is visiting day. So be prepared if your families don't come. Most of them won't." I know it sounded harsh, but it's the truth. And with that, I walked out.
Mystery P.O.V
So, she's pregnant. Four knocked that skinny little bitch up. well, they aren't going to have the fairytale ending they think they'll have. Not as long as I'm here. I'll make sure of that. My plan was simple. I was going to wait, very patiently, until she was almost about to give birth. Maybe I'd wait until she was actually in labor. I can decide that later. When I decide to, I'll go up to her. She'll be the bitch she is and tell me to get away, and then I would do it. I would pull out my very sharp knife, and stab her. As many times as I deem necessary. She won't have that baby. And I think I know just the person I can get to help me. There is another person that hates her just as much as I do.
Tris P.O.V
As soon as I had gotten back to the apartment, I flopped on the bed, and fell asleep instantly. I was awoken by the door opening. It was most likely Tobias. It was possible that he was done with the initiates. I turned on my back, as he walked through the door. He walked over by me, brushed the hair out of my face, and kissed me softly.
"Did you rest at all?" he asked.
"Yeah," I replied, a small smile playing at my lips. "I had a nice little nap before you came in."
"Well," he said. "You better start getting as much sleep as you can. When the baby's born, we won't be getting that much."
"Maybe you could take a nap with me," I said playfully. At that, he took off his shoes and crawled onto the bed.
"Maybe I could," he whispered. "Or maybe, we could have a little fun." He was grinning mischievously. He pressed his lips to mine. It was a bit forceful, but it was still passionate. I crawled on top of him, so I was sitting on his lap. My hands flew to his face, while his hand crawled up the back of my shirt. After a while, I pulled away.
"What?" he asked, a bit disappointed.
"Nothing," I said. "Just thinking."
"About the baby?" I nodded. "I'm just wondering what's going in there," I gestured to my stomach. "I'm also thinking about how scared I am." I said the last part in a hushed voice.
"I'm scared too Tris." said Tobias. He hugged me tightly.
Then there was a knock on the door. I got up to answer it. It was Christina. And she was crying.
"What's wrong Christina?" I asked worriedly. "Is your baby ok?" I prayed to God that she hadn't had a miscarriage.
"My baby's fine," she said, sobbing even harder. "It's Uriah."
