"Eric?" I called, as I entered the apartment, setting my keys and bag on the table next to the door. Eric and I have been dating for 2 months since I arrived at Dauntless. "In the kitchen baby!" His voice called, causing me to go to him. "Hey... Are you Okay? Shit, you look like hell..." He sat the ladle on the counter before coming over to me.
"What happened babe?" he asked, putting a hand on my cheek. "Just Promise not to get mad…" "I promise. Now tell me..." Eric caressed my cheek, as I started crying. "Tris?" He asked. "I... I... I'm pregnant..." I watched Eric's face, which lit up like a kid on Christmas day. "Really?" I nodded, as Eric said "Are you Okay? Is the baby?" I smiled and said "Calm down. We're fine, and perfectly healthy as far as Marlene can tell, and she is expecting Daddy to keep us that way." He smiled wide and said "I intend to. Now what else happened? You looked angry..." I bit my lip, before I said "This is the part you might get mad at... Four... He kissed me... and he touched me on my chest and down there... I knocked him out and just ran here..."
"Are you serious?! Where does he get the nerve...?" I backed away. While he showed me his softer side, I hated seeing him angry. "I got the hell out of there as soon as I could..." Eric came over to me immediately, and said "I don't blame you; you did nothing wrong, I'm madder at him. What do you want to do? I'll support you no matter what." I said "I can't decide... What do you think I should do?" He said "I think maybe we should talk to him first then decide." I smiled and said "Thank you... and thank you for not getting mad at me..." Eric said "Hey, stop. I love you. You didn't do anything. You did everything right, and I don't blame you." We sat at the table, he served up some soup. "Eat up." We ate quietly.
After dinner, there was a knock on the door. I went and opened the door. "Four..." "Tris?" Eric said as he entered the room. "Four." he said, pulling me close and lightly shoving me behind him. "What do you want?!" Eric said while I stayed behind him. "I want to speak to my girlfriend. I felt sick. "I'm not your girlfriend, Four. I love Eric, and only Eric." Four said "Bullshit." I took a deep breath and said "Four, listen to me You kissed me and tried to rape me in the training room. You've turned into your asshole father. I need you to stay away from me." Eric said "You can only speak to her in front of me. I'm senior leader, right under Max. I'll go to him if I have too. Consider this, is your only verbal warning."
"Go to our room, honey. I'll be there soon..." I went to the room, shutting the door, and clung my knees to my chest, shaking as I gently rocking myself back and forth on the bed. "Tris?" Eric said as he entered, coming over to me, lifting me up, and pulling me into his arms, as he sat on the bed, before he gently started rocking me back and forth. "I'm here. I'm right here. I got you in my arms. I kicked him out, and he won't come near you unless I'm near you. I love you just take a deep breath." I clung to him my face pressed into his neck. "Awe, baby, shh. I'm right here." Eric whispered, as he rocked me back and forth. "I want him gone, from Dauntless... I don't feel safe with him here." I confessed. Eric said "Let's talk to Max... He just completed his leadership training, so we could use him... But trust me. Between Max and I we will put precautions in place for your safety and the baby's, and if that means be gluing myself to your side whenever we leave our apartment, and office, then so be it." "I've only been as scared as I was when he... tried to... Only one time... and that was when I got my aptitude test results..." "What were they baby? I noticed your times, when Four logged them... Only divergents do that well..." I sucked in a breath. "The only way you'd know that..."
Eric said "I am one. Erudite, Dauntless, and Candor..." My jaw dropped. "I got Erudite, Dauntless and Abnegation..." I whispered. "I'm going to take down Jeaninne. Max and I have a plan, and frankly I'm too afraid to even execute it, especially considering what happened..." I said "You'd leave me here... with Four... Well... I'd have Caleb, at least... He could help protect me... if I needed it of course." "I just hate tha..." I shook my head. "Don't." We fell asleep in each other's arms, but little did I know sleep was not in the cards for me that night.
I woke up in the middle of the night, in a cold sweat. Eric was next to me sleeping peacefully. I wrote a note, before quietly changing and stepping out of our apartment. Alone. "There you are Trissy, baby." That voice... I knew that voice. Before I could process anything, I was on the ground, my clothes were torn off, and I couldn't move. I couldn't breathe. It was like I was paralyzed. I wanted to fight, scream... But nothing came, so I just laid there, letting Four rape me, till the paralytic agent wore off. "There baby. All better." He said as I stood and started panicking. He had just raped me and walked off. My clothes were in tatters. I didn't know where else to go, so I went to the office, and hid. I shared my office with Eric, I knew he'd find me.
When Eric came into the room, and saw my frightened form, and tear-stricken face, He got mad. We made it a point to keep extra clothes here, today it served me well. "Tris?! What the hell happened last night...? Shit are you okay?" I looked up as sobs came hard and fast. "I'm sorry..." I cried, my sobs must've broken him, because he came closer, only for me to try and back away. "Honey, this is me... What happened? Please..." He knelt in front of me, his hand lightly on my knee. "I had a bad dream... Wanted to get some fresh air... I didn't think it'd be a big deal, since it was late... Everyone should've been asleep..." I started, letting Eric's hand caress my leg. "Four came up behind me... Gave me like a shot... One that completely made me defenseless. I couldn't even move... He tore off my clothes, and he... he... forced himself inside me... I wanted to scream, but nothing came out... I couldn't do anything..." Eric immediately moved so he could pull me into his arms. "Tris..." "Eric, I'm so sorry..." I cried.
His arms tightened around me, as he rocked me soothingly. "I'm not mad at you. Okay? I want to take you to the infirmary, and get you tested, for everything. For your sake, and the baby's. But first I want to talk to Max..." "I betrayed you..." Eric shook his head. "No, you didn't. You didn't choose it, it was forced upon you." I was trembling in his arms. "You are my wife. I am your husband, okay? Nothing else matters right now." I looked to him. "But I'm not your wife..." I whispered. "I want you to be. I Love you, and I know I've made mistakes, especially the last 24 hours, But I swear I'll do better. There's no one else I'd rather be with than you. Will you do me the incredible honor of marrying me?" I couldn't hide my tears, as they cascaded down my cheek, the sobs making me silent, as I Nodded. We married in Max's office, but before we left, Eric said "Max, we need to report a crime..." His arm, still encasing my waist. "Of course, what's up?" Eric looked at me, but I shook my head, my body sinking down into the chair, tears and fear ripping through me. "Four raped her last night..." Eric whispered, sliding over a tape recorder, of my confession, before he looked to me. "You don't have to tell him... You might have to in Candor... But I'll be right there." I nodded, slowly. "I'll set it up with Jack, but I know, both will have to go under the truth serum."
I looked to Eric, who said "I know. It will be fine. I want to get her checked out, now... Can you..." "I got it. Go on." Numbly I walked, close to Eric, all the way down to the infirmary. "Tris." Four's voice said warmly. I could feel the bile creeping up. "Step away Four." Eric warned. Four grabbed my arm, yanking me from Eric's protective arms. "One move and she dies." Four said, threateningly. Eric's eyes met mine. I shook my head, as if to say stand down. "What do you want Four?" Eric asked, staying where he stood. "I WANT MY GIRLFRIEND BACK!" "I NEVER WAS YOUR GIRLFRIEND!" I discreetly reached for Four's gun Eric's eyes met mine watching what I was doing. "Not now..." He mouthed. "Say goodbye asshole." I aimed the gun at Four, only to have him move my aim as I shot his arm, versus his chest.
My body dropped to the ground, my arm hurting, as Eric came running over and helped me to the infirmary. "YOU BITCH!" Four cursed as he followed. "Eric! Tris. What can I do for you?" Marlene asked, as she ushered us into a room. "Here Babe, lie down on the bed." Eric whispered as he helped. "We need some testing done."
~Eric's prov.~
I discreetly pulled Marlene aside. "We need a rape kit... I don't like talking about it in front of Tris... She's traumatized, even the mere mention of the word rape, sends her into a state..." Marlene looked to me almost shocked. "We're going to run every test we can, and remember, most things are treatable." I nodded, before I returned to my wife's side. "Hey, you're okay." "GET OFF ME!" She shrieked, causing me to back off the bed. "Damn it. Tris, Did Four come in here?" Her eyes locked on mine, for a moment, tears streaming down her face. That told me everything I needed to know. "Marlene!" I called. "Yeah?" she asked as she came in. "I want Tris's room on lock down. Right now, only, you me and a woman doctor can go in." "Of course..."
"Eric..." Her voice so small and fragile, sent me to her side once more. "It's me. It's me." I whispered.
Eric: Max, I don't give an ass rats how, but we need this trial ASAP. Four got to her AGAIN! And almost killed her.
Max: Damn it, is she okay? I got it set up for live tomorrow, at Candor.
Eric: Then that's when it will be... Till then I need round the clock watches on her... She's traumatized, and scared. Surprisingly, after a little coaxing, she's okay with me...
Max: Come to my house, after you're done in the infirmary, you both can stay here, you can drop her off and go get some clothes and stuff.
Eric: You're the BEST! I owe you.
Once the rape test was completed, I dropped her off to Max's swearing I'll be back, before getting some of our things and starting to return. "Eric." Caleb said, as he touched my arm, I spun and looked at him. "What's wrong?" I asked, as my already shot nerves calmed. "I'm having trouble reaching Tris..." I said "Right now, she doesn't want to see anyone... She only lets me near her, and I know you're protective over her, But until she says it's okay, I can't tell you." "Four raped her... I can't believe the sick bastard..." I said "Do not seek revenge. Go to your apartment. Okay. Tris will need us..." Caleb said "You're right... Tell her I love her." I nodded before returning to Max's. "Hey Max, What's wrong?" I asked, before my gaze went to where Tris was. "I'm sorry, Max..." I whispered, as I approached Tris, gently. "Hey baby girl... It's okay..." Her eyes focused on me for a moment, before she shakily stood, and ran to my arms. "I'm sorry... I don't know what's wrong with me..." she whispered. "I do." I whispered. "You two get some sleep now." I nodded helping Tris to the guest room, where we fell asleep, or tried to.
