When I wake in the morning I feel abnormally exhausted. I remember how I have serious wounds to clean and a razor to sharpen. I find the peroxide and a towel to start the disinfecting process. The pain of me attempting to get healthy again is almost as bad as it was when I got the wounds.
The bubbling of the peroxide makes me wonder if my emotions are equivalent to the bubbling of the medication. Am I just trying to last one more day of this retched life or am I fighting for something more?
My mind sorts through all my memories to try and find one that makes me want to battle. Eventually I do. I find what I have been looking for. I am convinced that my life is one to keep. My story will be told and I will find love.
I immediately find a spark in my soul. Four is helping me out of this disturbing situation and he doesn't even know it. I will keep my life for him. I put the razor away and promise myself to never take it out again.
I will fight.
For me.
For him.
For us.
Tobias POV
I wake up Thursday morning feeling refreshed and just downright happy. I'm happy to see this girl again. She seems so selfless, smart, and brave. A perfect combination. I would call her divergent.
I take a hot shower and look through my closet I want to look nice, but not too nice; like I'm trying, but not trying too hard; to look relaxed, but not bored. I soon find a pair of jeans and a black t-shirt.
Hopefully this will all go smoothly and I can see her again soon. Maybe even we can have a relationship. I guess only time can tell.
~time skip:cafe~
I sit in the cafe, thinking about what I'm going to say to this mystery girl once she gets here. Hell, I don't even know her name!
When she walks through the door, she looks stunning. She is wearing cutoff jean shorts, a black tank top, a faded jean jacket, and some high tops. Her hair is in a messy bun and she is wearing very little makeup. She has a very sexy tattoo of three ravens on her collar bone. I will have to ask her about those and maybe show her my tattoo in the future. Then I notice the massive cut on her forehead.
"What happened?" I ask, rushing to her side.
Tris POV
Four gasps and hurries to look at my wound, "What happened?"
Oh no, what am I supposed to say?!
"Um, I...ran into a pole." I say. Shoot! I stuttered!
"I know you're lying, what really happened?" he asks, reaching across the table for my hand.
We sit there holding hands and looking into each others eyes for awhile until he realizes what he is doing. He pulls his hand back blushing slightly. I feel my face heat up too.
"Well, 'Four' maybe if you share some secrets of your own..."
"Oh, so we are getting deep in this little coffee shop aren't we?" He says with a small laugh cutting me off. "Ok if you don't want to willingly tell your secrets, maybe I should get you drunk first?"
"You can try to get me drunk, that is." I reply with a smirk on my face.
"Sounds good, um..."
"Tris. My name is Tris."
"Alright,Tris, my house; 6; tomorrow. I invite 3 friends you invite 3 friends. I will text you my address. What is your number?"
"555-4610"
"Alright! See you tomorrow! Oh before you leave, what do the 3 ravens on your collar bone represent?"
"There is one raven for each of my family members."
"Good to know."
"Bye!"
"Bye!"
