*I do not own Divergent or any of the characters.
I leave school during gym since I am excused to heal.
When I reach home I see Mack.
"So what brings you here?"
"To check on you."
He lifts my shirt and checks on my ribs.
Damn girl just had to stomp on them!
"Alright looks like most were just bruised. They are healing better then I thought, but I still got something for you."
"What? Will it help me heal for championships?" I perk up.
"Yes, now it's a very expensive cream. Rub it on your bruised rib area. It will fix your ribs so you can get back to fighting soon."
I hug him. "Thank you soooooo much Mack!"
"Get off me Tris. You know I hate hugs."
"Sorry, I was just really happy."
"That's fine. I will leave you now, but put the cream on before and after bed."
I wave as he leaves.
Now to surprise Four.
Tonight I will surprise Four with a romantic dinner. He and I have something together.
Something special.
I start his favorite meal Lasagna and Dauntless Cake.
I make the noodles then mix the batter.
Hmmm music would be good right now. I turn on the stereo; a familiar song turns on.
"Were gonna make it now. Don't ever turn around. Nobody else needs to know, where we might go. We could just run them red lights. We could just run them red lights."
I dance and sway when I pour the batter in to three circular pans.
The noodles steam when I pour them into the strainer. While they cool I start to set the table.
I told Uriah to hold Four up until 6 so I have an hour. I hope he likes my surprise. We have spent so much time together. I just think tonight shows if I actually want to have a relationship.
Layering the noodles I add cheese and sauce. I slide in the pan and pull out the cake. Setting it down to cool. I whip up some chocolate frosting then I frost the cake. I pipe the edge making it look professional.
Time to go dress; I grab a navy loose dress. It matches his eyes perfectly, except the speckles of light. No one could ever replicate those.
"Ding!" I run down the stairs to see a upset Four and a laughing Uriah.
Fours wearing a blindfold and Uriah is running away.
"What the hell is this Uriah?" Four lifts his hands to take off the blindfold I place my hands over his. He grabs my hand and we lower them to our sides.
"Just keep it on Four and come with me." I guide him over to the table. I sit him down and then set the lasagna in front of him.
Salad, lasagna, and cake.
I kiss him and slowly slide off the blindfold. His eyes look wide when he opens them.
"I thought we should do something with just the two of us. If you don't want to I can cal..." I am cut of by his lips.
"No this is perfect."
I smile and sit down. We eat and enjoy the dinner. We laugh and talk all night long.
From now on I don't want to be alone. I want to be with him.
It's Friday and my ribs are mostly done healing.
I wake up Four by kissing him. He gladly returns the favor. Our kisses grow more passionate. His tongue glides on my bottoms lip, asking for entrance. When I don't oblige his tongue explores my mouth. I bring my tongue into his mouth. Never have I kissed anyone else, but I never did realize what joy kissing Four brings me.
Kissing has grown on me. I am still afraid of anything further; but I hope with time my fear will go away. Because when I kiss him fireworks light. Warmth spreads through my body.
Slowly I work down his neck. He moans.
I smile at the fact I have this affect on him.
I reach his collar bone; lingering at a certain part. Leaving a mark where I kissed.
I pull off him and get up. I notice my handy work and smirk.
That shows all the other girls that he's taken. We may not be officially out, but I still don't like others hitting on him. I still don't get why he's with me though. He could have any other girl.
I take a shower and slip on clothes. Black leggings and a red tank top. Then I slip my leather jacket over.
I don't feel like doing my makeup so I just wear mascara. Then pull my hair into a fish tail.
By the time I get downstairs Four tosses me a granola bar and we go to school.
School was pretty much the same. All the classes were boring except the ones with Four.
He got pissed at me for the hickey, but hey! It worked too! The girls flirted until they saw the hickey. Then they stomped off.
It's Gym now and I finally get to participate!
"Fruitcakes! We have a new topic for today. I will be leaving so Tori is taking over!" He yells at us. Sometimes Eric is too loud.
"Thank you Eric. Today is self defense. Any of you know self defense?"
Some of us raise our hands; not including me. Tori gives me a glare.
"Today we are going to have a few of you demonstrate." Great now Tori will pick on me.
I see her glance around to pick. I already know you will pick on me so go ahead Tori.
"Tris could I have you come up." I listen to her and come up to the matts. She motions for me to turn around.
Now what is she up to?
I feel a hand grab my butt. I grab the hand and flip them over me. I see Four on the ground before me. His wide eyes meet mine. I look at him with a pleading look. He mouth it's okay.
"Now as you can Tris just demonstrated a way of flipping your attacker. Those two will now demonstrate much easier means of fighting back."
She knew that it would be my first instinct to do that great! Now I will have to hurt Four.
Oh at least it's not a real fight.
"Tris please show us four moves that can be used. With the least amount of force."
"I'm sorry I have to do this Four." He gives me a look of it's okay.
I hold up one finger; then I elbow Fours gut. He groans in pain bending to clutch his gut. Two fingers; I stomp on his foot. Using my heel causing pain.
Three fingers; I act as if my hand is clutching something then I fake stab Four.
I feel so bad; his nose might be broken. Correction it is or I gave him a bloody nose.
Four fingers; I knee him in the jewels.
Four falls to the ground in pain. I help him up and lead him away from the front. I hand him a tissue for his nose and he thanks me.
"Thank you. Now we are going to give any of you a chance to try this self defense against someone. Tris please put on the padding."
She knows that I would be able to give them a good fight if needed. She also knows that I know when to back down.
I pull up the pants with padding and slip the jacket on. Christina zips me up.
"So Tris will be the attacker. Use any defense attack you want. Just none on the face."
Good a black eye is not exactly attractive.
"Any takers?" I ask.
Christina walks up. She try's to elbow me in the gut. I block her action. She then stomps on my foot.
"Not bad next time use more of your heal and the middle of my foot. A broken toe will not phase them. While a foot may. Next." I say.
Christina walks off while Shauna gets up.
She try's to kick me on my side. I grab her foot.
"Rookie mistake. A foot is a huge advance if caught. Only kick if you are advanced fighter."
I drop her foot. She then punches my chest. It feels like a shove with the padding.
"Your top is protected a lot. Attack the gut next time. Next."
"Please you wimps. I could take her." Molly sneers.
"Go ahead be my guest Molly." I gesture to next to me. Molly scoffs and comes up.
She punches my gut; I deflect it. She keeps punching me, and I use my fore arms to block.
"Are we done yet?"
"Why don't you take those pads off? We will see who comes out on top. Or you too scared?"
She Is Going Down! This bitch doesn't know who she messed with.
I slip off my pads and toss them.
"Bring it on Molly!"
She charges toward me. I bend down and push up when she gets by me. She is lifted in the air and falls.
I smirk, but Molly gets up. She still wants more? Fine by me.
Molly thrusts her fist. I kick right by my face pushing it away. She try's to kick my side.
Ha she thinks she advanced! Ha! That's really funny!
I grab her foot twisting it. Molly falls to the ground. I push her feet toward her arms. Her knees hit the inside of her elbows. I sit on her holding this position.
"We done here? I think so, unless you can get up?"
Molly wiggles, but fails. So I hop off.
"Now do any guys want to try? Or we too scared?" None of them answer.
"Thank you for helping Tris. Now to get and idea of self defense and fighting I have tickets for all of you to use. Eric is requiring this as your grade. You will get to see the mighty six fight. Check in with me before and after for your grade."
She passes out tickets to all but me. It would be useless for them to buy me a ticket. Since I am fighting.
"The fight is Saturday! See you all then!" Tori walks off when we go to change.
I walk out of the lockers to Four grinning.
"Why are you smiling?"
"I have a surprise for you." He places his hands over my eyes. We then, from what I can tell, walk on to the field. Yep, grass is at my feet.
He removes his hands and the football team and cheer are spelling HOMECOMING?
"Yes!" I scream before I smash my lips to his. I pull to see him grinning.
"I was hopping you wouldn't be too mad since it is tomorrow."
"Never." He wraps his arm around me before we both go to practice.
"You do realize this means Christina will take you shopping. Then get you ready for the dance right?"
"Shit." I mumble
"What was that?" Four chuckles at me.
"Oh nothing I was just thinking of how wonderful that will be." I use fake enthusiasm.
"Yay 5 hours of shopping."
"If your lucky she will stop then." Four says still chuckling
By the sight of Christina's shit eating grin I know that I'm screwed. She stands with the other girls at practice.
"I have a feeling I'm not so lucky." I say.
"I have a feeling your right."
Four is sitting on the couch. I sneak up behind him and plant my lips to his. He pulls me onto the couch.
We both start to kiss passionately. Growing hungrier each kiss. He slowly kisses down my neck. He reaches my collar bone and I moan.
Then I realize what he's doing. I smack his head.
He sits up smiling. With a big wide ass grin.
I feel the hickey on my neck.
"Four!"
"Now guys will know you are taken."
"Aww I love that you care about me, but tomorrow is homecoming!" I giggle. Wait I giggled wow I must really love Four. Did I say love? God Tris don't scare him off!
"Tris can I tell you something?" His face looks upset. What did I do!?
"Yeah you can tell me anything." I said love! I'm moving to fast!?
"Tris there is something I need to tell you about my life." Oh god! Please no! Don't say your Gay! I actually really like you!
"Tris my real name is Tobias. The reason no one has seen me shirtless really is because of my scars." He looks down at the floor. I can tell he's embarrassed.
"When my parents divorced my dad, Marcus, he became an alcoholic. After he would drink he would get upset at the little things. Leaving without asking or even going out with friends."
So a part of him is broken too. I am not the one who needs to be mended.
"That's why I moved in with my mom. Then I got tattoos to cover the scars, but you can still see them up close." I lift his chin to mine.
"Can I see your tattoos?"
"Are you asking to undress me Tris?"
"Only partially." I giggle.
He then lifts off his shirt. He's beautiful. Five circles engulfed his back with symbols in each. Only covered by some flames.
"What do they mean?"
"They are the five factions. I don't want to be just one." I could just melt at his voice.
"I want to be smart, brave, selfless, truthful, and kind. I am still having some trouble with kindness."
As he tells me this I trace over the tattoo. He shivers when I touch a scar, so I lean in and kiss it.
He turns around to me. His face looks crushed, he think I will leave him. No.
"Your beautiful. And no matter what, you are kind, Four." I kiss him on the lips to assure him.
"Tris please use my real name. It's nice to hear it from someone, but only when we are alone."
He wraps his arms around me; pulling me close. I nuzzle into his chest. We both slowly drift off into sleep, snuggled into each other.
"Tobias." I say just before both of us fall asleep.
He is broken. I am broken. Together we make one.
*Hey guys I would have posted this right when I got 80 reviews but my friend was using her phone. She actually thinks I read or check my email when I use her phone. Shhh she doesn't know I have this account.
So she is currently getting Dip and Dots at the hotel. I was the one who found it earlier this week. Their is about 8 of us girls on this vacation, with two adults. So curfew is applied at 10:30. Ridiculous I know! When I found out about the ice cream machine I made a stop to get some. Ice cream at midnight was delicious!
Thanks for the reviews! They make up for staying late and writing this a couple days ago. So does jumping 3,000 reviews! I screamed and woke up my friends when I saw that. You guys are the best! Hope you like the chapter! Review and Message me!
QOTD: What was the most Dauntless thing that you did recently?
My answer: I went down a straight water slide. It was amazing! Everyone in the water park was too scared. My friends were too scared. I just stand with my legs crossed and arms making an X. Then the lifeguard pushes a lever. The floor drops and I plum it towards the earth. I went down the slide 10 times! It was amazing!
Thanks for reading! Goodbye my Darlings! *MT
