Ok guys thank you so much for almost 400 reads, this is awesome! And sorry if this is short. I was going to make this chapter one long one but it was getting to long so I split it in two. (Sorry if that was confusing)
And thanks for everyone who reads, it means so much!😘

"TRIS OPEN YOUR DOOR NOW!" someone yells on the other side of my apartment door. "IT'S AN EMERGENCY!" I stand up immediately. One, what would this be about at midnight and two, who on earth would use my real name, in possible earshot of my initiates. Like honestly, shut the hell up. I get up, ready to punch this person out for waking me up, as their still knocking on my door.

"WHO EVER THIS IS, SHUT THE HELL UP! IM GOING TO PUNCH YOU OUT IN FIVE SECONDS." I scream. Walking to my door. The person stops for a few seconds, but keeps going. This must be important.

I run the rest of the way to the door and throw it open. Zeke is standing there, almost punching me in his desperation to get me to the door.

"One...of...your...initiates..." Zeke pants. I guess he ran the way here, and used the rest of his energy to scream at me.

"Get it out, Zeke" I say kind of desperate.

"Just come, I will explain on the way," Zeke says, already starting back down the hall. I run after him.

"Okay, so one of your initiates, Edward, was stabbed. We're not sure who, but we have to get him out of there and to the infirmary." I am so shocked, I stop running for a second and just stare at him. He has to be kidding, right? This isn't happening.

"Are you coming, or just going to let him bleed to death?" Zeke asks me with annoyance. I snap out of it and nod, sprinting past Zeke and to the dormitories. Zeke speeds up, and just catches up to me as I burst in.

"Everyone either get out or step back!" I yell startling everyone. They all leave except Will and Four. Of course he stays, I would stay if I was in this situation. It's the Abnegation in us.

I think about this as Zeke and I run to Edwards side. I gag a little as I see that Zeke was right- Edward was stabbed, and with a butter knife. Who would do this? I go to his feet, so I don't have to be as close to his eye. I know I should go to his head since I am probably more gentle, and that's what he needs. I guess being in Dauntless has made me lose some of my selflessness.

We get to the infirmary in a matter of minutes. "Someone get over here and help this boy!" I yell as a few nurses gasp at what has happened.

A male nurse comes running in, and stops in his place. The same way I did. "Now!" I snap. He runs out of the room and comes back in with a gurney. We place Edward on it, and the nurse wheels him away. Zeke and I just watch him go. I haven't broken down yet but it is coming in 10 seconds.

"Are you okay? Do you want to sleep at my house tonight? Shaunna won't mind." I hear Zeke say. I nod as Zeke pulls me into a hug. I broke down faster than I anticipated. I start to sob into Zekes shirt. I know it is stupid and I shouldn't be crying for Edward. He was just an initiate, not even someone I might want to be friends with in the future.

I stop crying immediately. I can't be acting like this in public. It will tare down the tuff, strong image I set my self up to be.

I am sniffling as Zeke and I walk back up to his apartment. This won't be weird like some people think it might be. We don't like each other like that and we never will. Zeke is like my brother. Shaunna knows this, she will be fine.

"I'm going to go tell Shaunna and I will be back in about 10 minutes. Shaunna might come back too."

"Okay. Thank you so much, Zeke. I know it's not that big of a deal- well it kind of is- but thanks for being there for me when I broke down. And thanks for being there for me all of the times before this. I love you" I say. He looks very shocked by my last words. "As a friend you idiot." I say as I punch him lightly in the shoulder. He looks relived.

"You scared me there, Tris. You know I love Shaunna. And you are like my sister." I nod and hug him again, then push him out his door.

"Go tell Shaunna. But make sure you don't sugar coat it, she can take it."

"Ya I know, it's just gruesome." He says as he starts to jog towards Shaunna's apartment.

Once he is gone I shut his door and go to Zeke's couch, grab a blanket, curl up and pass out immediately. I thought that I would have trouble sleeping with what we just went through, but I am so exhausted, I'm glad it is a day off tomorrow.
