I'M GLAD THAT YOU FACES LIKE MY IDEA FOR THIS STORY!
ROBERTS POV
I walked with my friends to the room we all shared. It was the room that I had moved into after initiation. It was roomy, so we could all sleep there. We rotated sleeping on the floor and the couch and the beds. We were all separated form our families, so friends were the closest thing we all had to family.
I was on the floor by the window on the line between sleep and awake when I heard a tapping on my window.
I rubbed my eyes, stood up and looked out the window. For a second, I couldn't believe what I saw. A pair of round green eyes stared back at me.
"Cassia?" I whispered.
"Open the window!" she mouthed. I snapped out of my daze and slid the window open. Cassia pulled herself through the window and landed on the floor with a thud, waking up my friends.
"What the heck, Robert?!" said Nick, angrily while turning on the light.
"Hey, can't a girl jump through a window without being criticized?" Cassia shot back at Nick. Hopefully they would get along.
"Cassia?" said the rest of my friends in unison.
"Yes, it is I!" she said, striking a pose and then laughing.
Her hair was disheveled and her cheeks were pink. Had she run here?
"Oh, you're Cassia!" said Nick. "Robert talks about you all the time!"
Cassia gave me a look and I blushed. I changed the subject.
"You know that you could have gone through the entrance, right?" I said.
"That's no fun," she said.
"Wait, did Susan make it to the safe house?" I asked, remembering the shots of the guns.
"Oh yeah, she's fine," she said. I let out a sigh of relief. Even though Susan wasn't really talking to me, she was still my sister.
"Wait, aren't you supposed to be staying in a safe house with your sister?" asked Madi.
"I wanted to visit you guys! I missed you!" she said. "Now who's he?" she asked, pointing to Nick.
"That's Nick, he came from Erudite, but he transferred there from Candor," I explained.
"Oh, that explains a lot," she said. "Nice to meet you," she said and walked over to Nick and shook his hand.
"Are you staying for long?" asked Marco.
"Probably a day, then I'm going back," she said.
"How's Amity's decision to avoid the conflict?" asked Cassia.
"Still the same, but I don't think that Johanna agrees with it at all," I said.
"Oh," she said. After a pause, she turned back to Nick. "Did you know a girl named Stella in Erudite?" she asked him.
"Yeah. She kept getting sugar highs off of the soda. Why do you ask?" he said.
"Oh, she's my sister," said Cassia. "When did you leave Erudite?"
"Last week."
"Was she in Erudite then?"
Nick paused for a second. "Yeah. She was helping design serums. Although, it didn't seem like she wanted to be there. She kept 'accidentally' knocking over chemicals."
Cassia nodded and muttered something to herself.
"Can I sleep here?" she said, finally.
I nodded and made a space for her next to me on the floor.
xXx
The next morning, we were all woken up at 5:00 a.m. to Cassia shaking us. "Wake up! something really important just happened! You won't want to miss this!"
"Do you do this all the time?" muttered Nick.
"Just listen! I heard from one of Johanna's assistants that the Divergent girl in Erudite is going to be executed tomorrow morning!"
"What?" all of us said.
"Seriously, if Amity doesn't get involved with this whole war thing, then I'm going to slap someone!" said Nick.
"Don't say that! Someone might hear!" said Joy. Nick glared at her.
"Tris?" I asked. Cassia nodded. "But weren't they going to kill her in two weeks?"
"I know! I think that she did something to Jeanine!" she said.
"No one deserves to die like that!" said Madi, who looked like she might burst into tears.
"But, there's this rumor going around that people are trying to get her out and she's going to come here," said Cassia.
"Really?" said Madi, perking up a little.
"Just a rumor. But hopefully it happens," said Cassia.
I had a feeling that a certain former Abnegation member was trying to get Tris out of Erudite. I hoped that he would succeed.
But I still had that itch in my bones from Abnegation to help Tris escape.
WAS THIS CHAPTER OKAY? I'M NOT REALLY SURE ABOUT IT! REVIEWS PLEASE! STAY PIEFACEINGLY!
