Tris Pov
When I wake up, Tobias still isn't back. When I head down to the cafeteria, Christina finds me and as soon as she seems me she asks,"what's wrong?"
"It's Four, he-"
"Did he hurt you?! Do I need to beat the living shit out of him?!"
"No! No, Chris. He was called to go check out a scene. Someone was murdered. But he hasn't returned."
"Oooohhhhh."
"I'm just worried..."
"I know, I know. If Will was gone I'd be worried too."
Hearing his name makes me jump because I shot him. Thankfully he isn't holding it against me.
"So besides the anxiety, what else is happening in your life?"
I blush and look at my hands in my lap.
"Tell me!"she says.
"Not here!"I whisper.
"Ooo!" She says right as Will sits down.
"Ooo what?"He asks.
"Nothing." I say.
He raises an eyebrow but doesn't ask again. "Where's Four?"
"He was called to go check something out."
"Oh," he says and digs into his breakfast.
When we finish eating, Christina rushes me to her apartment.
"Tell me all!"
"Well, we uh, had sex..."I say quietly.
"Was it good? Did it hurt? Was he big? Omg! Did-"
"CHRISTINA!"
"Tell meeeeeee!"
"Well, I went to my fear landscape and found out I wasn't afraid anymore, and it just kinda happened. That's all I'm telling you."
"Please Tris!"
"No!"
"Oh c'mon!"
"No. You know we did it, that's all you need to know."
She huffs but I'm already opening the door.
"We should get you some lingerie." She says.
"What?!"
"Please, at least do that. Guys like it."
"Will it get you to shut up?"
"Yes."
"Then fine."
As we walk to the pit, I see Tori In the tattoo parlour.
"Hold up,"I tell Christina.
"Tori,"I say as I walk in.
"Hi, Tris."
"Did you hear anything yet?"I ask.
"Well, when Harrison came back, he had said that they were doing an autopsy on the man because it will tell more. There weren't any wounds so we're guessing he was poisoned."
"Wait, Harrison came back? What about Four?"
"Wait? He still hasn't returned? He said he wanted to look around for a little so he told the others to get the body back."
"How long has it been since they left?"
"Like 5-6 hours... He should be back by now."
"I need to find him."I say.
"We'll send a group."
"But I'm going too."
"Okay."
Tori grabs the phone on the table and furiously dials many numbers saying that they are needed. A few minutes later, 5 Dauntless soldiers come into the shop.
"Okay," Tori says,"this is Jaysen. He is a very great commander, and him and his group are going to go with you."
"Hi, Tris,"he says.
"Hi."
"Where are we going to look?"I ask Tori.
"I sent a map to Jaysen, he knows where to look. They were by the fence last night."
"Okay, let's go," I say.
We make our way to the fence in what I'm sure is a record time. Dauntless leaders don't just go missing. And plus I was there so I made sure we got there as fast as possible.
There's no sign of Tobias at all.
We all split up along the area. I decide to go to the area that leads by the factionless and Abnegation. I used to walk this way every day with Caleb, Susan, and he brother. It's almost nostalgic.
I look over to see some factionless people on the corner. I walk over to them and ask,"Have you seen a man about yay tall, dark hair, dark blue eyes,he's Dauntless, his nose hooks at the bottom, has a strong jaw, muscular, and he goes by Four."
"Why do you ask?" A man with a long grey beard asks.
"I really need to find him. Please, if you've seen him, I need to find him."
"Yes. He's been around here."
"Which way did he go?"I ask with a bit of hope.
He points behind him to an old warehouse known for sheltering factionless. Why would he be in there?
"Thank you."I say and start to walk towards it. The man walks along with me. I decide not to question it. I don't have time. He leads me through the building, until he comes to more factionless.
"Get Evelyn. She's gonna wanna meet her."
"Who is she?"
"Dauntless leader and she's looking for the boy."
I didn't realize that I was known by the factionless. I didn't think they paid much attention to what goes on in other factions.
"Come this way."I tall man asks.
I follow him to a room in the back. When I open the door that the man led me to, I instantly see Tobias.
"Tobias!"I gasp.
"Tris?"He says confused.
He stands up from his chair and I run over to him. He touches his forehead to mine and stares into my eyes. We both lean in and kiss each other.
"What's going on?"I ask so only he could hear. Someone clears their throat behind us. I turn to find a woman. She's older and has dark curly hair and a nose and strong jaw that looks awfully familiar.
"Tobias, who is this person and why are they here?"
"This is Tris, she is my girlfriend, and the love of my life."
"Hmm, I thought you were too stiff to change." She says.
"Tris, this is Evelyn Johnson. She's my mom..."
I'm so confused. His mom died years ago when I was 7 and he was 9. I was at the funeral? Why is she here?
"But- how?"
"She had an affair and got Pregnant. When Marcus found out he banished her to factionless. The funeral was a cover up.
"How did you-"
"She sent me a messege when I transferred from Abnegation."
"And you finally decided to reply." She says.
I don't like the look in her eyes. It's deceiving.
I look over to see chalkboards with numbers and letters. A code I don't understand. I try to look at it in an Erudite way but I still don't understand. Maybe how many warehouses? I don't know.
"Why were you here for so long?"I ask.
"We had to talk over things. But it's time to go."
"Tobias-" his mom starts.
"Goodbye Evelyn." Is all he says before we walk out. I'm expecting an explanation.
