Divergent High

Chapter 62 {Monday Oct. 21}

"Hey, can I come in?" I ask feeling tears ready to spill over. Why is my life so stressful right now?

"Yeah, come on in." Christina said opening the door wider so I could walk in. "Might I ask what's wrong?"

"My life," I say.

"More specific?"

"Four and Theo." I say my tears now replaced with anger.

"I have just the thing, go sit on the couch. I'll be there in a minute." I do as Chris says and sit down.

A few minutes later Christina appears from around the corner with a tub of ice cream and several bags of various candy.

"Now, tell me what's up girl." She said sitting next to me. She handed me a bowl of ice cream.

"He's just so jealous." I say, " Why can't he just trust me?"

"I'm assuming you're talking about Four?" She says.

"Yeah, he doesn't like Theo. I do, as a friend. Tobias just isn't accepting that. He doesn't believe me when I tell him he is just a friend." I say angrily.

"Well," Chris looks at me, "if Tobias finally got a new friend, that was an attractive girl. Would you be okay with it? Would you like it?"

"Well, I-" I start then stop to think, "I wouldn't like it. But, I would trust him if he said she was just a friend." I say attempting to pick up my spoon with my broken hand, but fail.

"Woah! What happened to your hand?!" Christina said, "if Four did that to you I swear I'll beat his as-" I stopped her.

"I did this. I got mad and punched the wall." I said.

"So I have a question." Chris says, "but you can't get mad."

"Okay..." I say skeptically.

"Do you like Theo?" She asks.

"No." I say, "I don't think so. If I do I love Tobias."

"Well, then go tell Tobias that, maybe he just need to hear it." Chris says and I stand up.

"Thanks Chris," I embrace her in a hug. "See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow." She says as I walk out the door to my car. The ride home I sing along lightly to the radio. I open the front door.

My eyes widened.

"What. The. Actual. Fuck!" I say looking at the sight in front of me.

Nita and Tobias were sitting on the couch doing what looked like small talk. What the fuck. I'm so confused. And angry. Definitely angry.

Without hesitation I run at her and am about to tackle the bitch when a strong arm prevents me from doing so.

"You bastard. You know I hate her. You know." I scream at Tobias, the one holding me back. "Not even I would do that!" Suddenly tears were pouring down my face. "Let go of me!"

"Tris I-"

"LET GO OF ME YOU ASSHOLE!" He grip loosened and I broke free and ran to my room. I pushed my face deep into my pillow and screamed. A few moments later the front door closed and footsteps were coming up the stairs.

I ran quickly and locked the door to my room. Surely this wasn't how he felt when I was friends with Theo. I feel broken on the inside. I knock came at the door.

I stayed silent. To say I wasn't in the mood to speak to Four was and understatement.

"Tris?" His voice said softly trough the door.

Silence.

"Tris. Please open up."

"Go. To. Hell."

"Please."

"No. I'm not in the mood."

There was a twitch in the lock and suddenly the door was open. He stood there. His perfect muscles showing through his fitted shirt.

"Tris I-" I cut him off.

"You what? Wanted to get even with me, there was nothing to get even with Four. And Nita is much worse than Theo. Not even you can deny that!" I put venom in his nickname.

"I kno-" I cut him off again. What I was about to say was gonna hurt me as it was going to hurt him.

"Four," I sighed angrily, "I think we should just take a small break." He opened his mouth to say something but I quickly continued, "I love you. I really do. But you can't seem to trust me. And right now I don't know if I can trust you. And a key part to a relationship is trust. We need this break so we can gather our thoughts."

"So that's it?" He says angrily, "I don't get to even try to defend myself?"

"No. You don't. Because what you did down there. That broke all trust I had in you. I need time to rebuild that Tobias. Just give me time." I say fighting off tears. I knew it was the right thing to do, so why was it breaking my heart to say it.

"How much time?" He says somberly.

"I don't know. Can we please just be friends for now?"

"Fine." He says emotionlessly. I wish he would cry or yell or something, but now I don't know how he feels and before I can say or do anything else he leaves the room. I let the tears run down my face. What've I done?
