AN: Hey guys! I created a forum for ideas y'all want me to write.
I also just recently posted a poll that's available in my forum. I know my chapters aren't long but I do try and make them long, so let's hope I get better as time goes on.

Tris Pov
I'm tossing and turning all night. I just can't sleep. Soon I get a call from Zeke. He told me Four was in the hospital, and something else too, but I was too worried to hear it. I quickly grabbed my keys and rushed to the hospital. A while ago Toby told me all his friends don't know his real name and not to tell them, so I have to remember not to call him anything but Four. As I run into the hospital, I ask the woman at the front desk, "What room is Four in?" You could tell she wasn't good at her job because she looked at me bored, and said, "The hot one who was in an accident?" I want to slap her right now, but I just sigh and say, " that's the one." At this point, she looked away and said, "Down the hall, to the right." "Great," I thought. So he's in one of the 5 rooms that are "Down the hall, to the right" After a minute of searching I finally find the room, and enter slowly. If my heart wasn't already broken, the sight before me would have done it. There he is. He's all broken and bruised. As I enter the room, Zeke comes over to me and gives me a hug. At this, the dam breaks, and I choke on a sob. My friends are the closest things I have to family, so I'm basically hugging a brother. And that is what I need right now. I need family. I need my brother.
Four POV
I can hear quiet whimpers, that I know are Bea's. I can hear what's going on around me but as hard as I try, I can't open my eyes or move. Soon the whimpers die down and feel Beatrice take my hand. I feel so bad. After what happened earlier and now what I assume to be an accident, she must be emotionally drained. Soon I hear Tris' soft whispers. "Toby, please don't leave me. I need you, I love you." And then I feel wetness hit my hand. She's crying again.
Eventually, I'm able to open my eyes, and I do. The first thing I see is Bea's teary blue-gray eyes looking back at me. A huge, relived, smile spreads across her face. She presses the nurse call button and says, "Thank god you're awake. They thought you might go into a coma." I smile at her and say, "I'm so sorry I worried you." "It's okay," She responds. She is being so strong, as always. My thoughts are interrupted as the nurse walks in.
After asking me some questions, the nurse leaves and Tris tells me. "Zeke said the drunk driver that hit you is in the waiting room and wants to see you," "If he wants to come in I'm fine with that," I tell her, hoping to get the conversation with him over with quickly. Soon Zeke walks in with the one person I never wanted to see again. "Marcus."
"Tobias," His voice is cold and he looks at me like he wants to kill me. The look he would give me every single time he would beat me. My face hardens into what Zeke calls my "Four face." "Could I speak to him alone please," Marcus asks. Zeke whispers an "Of course." and walks out, but Beatrice quickly recognizes him and crosses her arms "I'm not leaving him alone with you," she states in a cold tone. Marcus gives me that look and I pull her over to me and whisper to her, "Bea you need to leave me alone with him. I'll call you if I need you," I tell her. "Promise?" she asks. "I promise." Then she walks out, glaring at my "father." "You know I never liked her," Marcus starts, talking about Tris. "You know I never cared," I retort. "You best leave her alone, boy, or she might just take your place in this hospital. Think about that," He says as he walks out. It's one thing to threaten me, but If he lays one finger on her I will make sure he pays. The only way I know to make sure she stays safe is for me to do as Marcus said. And now I'm going to lose the best thing that's ever happened to me all over again.
AN: Hey guys! It's a bit of a longer chapter, and I'm really proud of it. I'm sorry it took so long to upload. I'm working things out with my new bata, so this chapter hasn't been bata read, but let's hope the next one is. :) I Hope you've all had a wonderful day, Rose.
