Tris POV

I haven't spoken to Tobias. At least not since yesterday. I have no idea what he finally agreed on with Jordan. In which way am I speaking? Both.

"Tris" I turn around as I hear my name being called from beyond the hall. Nothing. I keep walking "she's the one we need to get rid of" I stop dead on tracks. It's not so much of a 'who' but a 'what'. I slowly make my way over through the hallway I just walked. I step into a room.

I glance around. I wasn't aware that Dauntless had information of Erudite. I duck behind a stack of boxes when I see Nita sitting at a desk watching a video. I try not to move.

"You'll get what you want soon enough" I hear Jeanine's voice say. What is this? I move so I can get a glance of the video but accidentally knock down something. She pauses the video. I cover my mouth.

I hear her chair squeak and the video begins to play again. Jeanine is plotting something against me. Why? I stand up. I need to get to Uriah, Christina, or...Peter...

"Why didn't you ever tell me about Jeanine?!" I yell at Peter. Sadly everyone else was with Jordan and Tobias. He was my only choice.

"Look I was going to...it just never came up" I sigh an exasperated sigh.

"Well next time let me know...because I can't say yes to being a leader if no one tells me anything" I lean against the window and look out. I never notice how beautiful days look. The sun is out...the grass is green. The bees are buzzing by minding their own business.

"Wait you want to be a leader?" I glance at him and scowl.

"I don't want to be a leader" I look outside again "I never meant to be anything when I stood up as Divergent"

"Of course you didn't...just ignore the fact that Jordan was Four's first love and the first divergent" I glare at him. For the first time I can say...he's right. I have to ignore that...it's the people I should be caring about...it's what I've done all my life. I should just let them be. I mean after all I'm the girl that interfered between a couple. Thanks Drew.

"Then...what do you want me to do?" He sighs and continues with the light bulbs he was working on.

"First take a break...after that think about it...then let me know your answer"

"That's it?" I ask. He nods. The lightbulb in his hand lights up. He smiles.(referencing moose in step up 3) He remembers me in the room and drops his smile.

"Yeah" I nod.

As I make my way to my bedroom, I hear Tobias voice...

"You're confusing me" he says. I decide to walk a bit quieter. I peak into the dance area. Jordan. I hide behind the wall.

"I'm sorry Four...I know I failed you, I did the right thing with the wrong person and the one thing I regret is leaving you..." I hear him sigh. I look again at the wrong moment. He holds her by the waist and kisses her. I gasp. I lean against the wall and stand there in shock. He doesn't love you...he never has...you should have known that ever since Drew left you.

It's silent for a while.

"Nothing" he says.

"We can work it out" she says.

"No, I mean...I just don't have nothing Jordan, I thought that when I saw you...I'd feel the same way but I don't" silence.

"Okay...I think it's time to move on then..."

"Jordan..." he says. He feels bad.

"You know Tris, she isn't a bad girl...she really loves you...I on the other hand never have, I've always thought of you more as a brother" footsteps approach me. I lean back. Jordan walks past me without even noticing.

Tobias POV

What did I just do? I'm so stupid! I look around. I start towards the door and step out. I take a deep breath before I head to Tris bedroom.

"I guess I was right" I look down. My heart stops.

"Tris" I say. She pushes herself off the wall and starts off. I catch up to her "Tris, I can explain" I reach out for her but she pulls away.

"It's alright...I heard everything" she says.

"Tris..." she walks off. I would walk after her settle this...it used to be easy doing this with Tris but for the first time I don't know what to say.

"Four..." I turn to look at Zeke.

"We're having a meeting with Nita and the others" I look at Tris and turn to look at him. I nod.

Sorry, I've been so busy lately...I know I just updated yesterday but I still feel that I'm lacking something when I'm writing. Comment. Vote. Thanks guys.
