Divergent Alpha( a fourtris story)

Home

Once home, Zeke, Four, and I go to the infirmary to clean and wrap our wounds. I have a deep cut on my ribs, Zeke, a busted lip and gash on his left leg, and Four a few minor scratches and cuts on his hands. I bandage up the boys and thank Zeke before he turns to leave and find his mate. Once he's gone,  Four closes the door and tells me to turn to my side and lift my shirt. I blush a little at the thought of him seeing me. I mean don't get me wrong my body is in pretty good shape, but I know he's probably seen better. It's weird I can go skinny dipping with my friends on nothing more than a dare, but the thought of my mate seeing me still sends heat rushing through my body and displaying on my cheeks. Nonetheless I do as I am told and he helps clean me up. I can tell he hates seeing me scarred up, in fact, I can feel how much he hates it. There is no doubt that if I focused in on his thoughts enough killing Peter would be number one on his mind. When we're done, we  both walk back home tired and hungry. It is only about 7, but I know for a fact after I eat, I am going to bed. We both wash up and change into our pajamas. Tonight he chose plaid pants and a black t-shirt, goddddd he looks good. I realize I'm staring when he says 

" like what ya see?!", while doing this cocky little smirk. He knows exactly what he's doing. rolling my eyes, I walk past him and strut into the kitchen in nothing but an old white tee and socks. 

" I'm thinking burgers medium well, what do you think? 

" excellent idea my love," he replies looking me up and down and licking his lips. God this man is finnnneeee.

" thank you baby, you're not to bad yourself" he states.

" ummmmmmmm"

" Your thoughts were really loud babe" he laughs.

"ohhhhh", I reply in embarrassment. 

We just talk, cook, and eat for pretty much the next hour and by 9, I am cuddled up into his side breathing in his comforting scent until I begin to drift off to sleep.

" Goodnight Tris, I love you."

I am awoken by Four tossing and turning. He's mumbling something incoherent, and he seems upset. The only word I am able to make-out is 'no' and 'please'.  This has never happened before, I try to tap him awake but it isn't working. He begins to toss and turn more and shout, I shake him until finally he opens his eyes. He sits up attempting to catch his breath and shake the dream off. I scoot closer and wrap my arms around him rubbing his back and telling him everything will be fine.

" you're okay, I'm here, nothing is gonna happen, it's okay, I love you, you're okay," I coo.

Once he's settled down I hold his head to my chest, his arm is wrapped firmly around me and my fingers are playing in his hair.

" do you wanna talk about it," I ask

" not right now baby," he replies.

He soon falls back asleep and minutes after him I do too.
