Will we work ????

Chapter 12

Tobias POV

I stand there in shock as Tris runs off. A hand touches my shoulder. I turn around to see Lauren. 

"Oh my god! You didn't tell me that I was screwing your relationship! I'm so sorry! You should go talk to her!" She urges me. The whole time I just stand there saying nothing. Tris just broke it off with me. 

I keep repeating it over and over again in my head. I come to my senses when reality hits me hard and when Lauren starts waving her hand in front of my face. I look at her. Was Tris right about her? I really don't think so. But I was so stupid enough to call her 'just jealous'. But what else could be the reason? She was obviously very mad about it. 

"I should go." I say. I sprint as fast as I can to the Priors' and knock. Caleb opens the door. 

"Tris isn't here." He tells me. 

"Right, thanks." I say worriedly and he closes the door. Where else could she have gone? I can't think. I go back to my house and up to my room. I start sobbing. What have I done? I let my ego get in the way and I could've possibly lost her forever. How could I let this happen?

xXx

It's 7 in the evening and I've tried calling her but no avail. I don't see her car in front of her house either. Where could she be? Every minute that passes scrapes onto me like sandpaper. Then my phone rings. I see that it's an unknown number. 

Me-Hello? Who is this?

Unknown-It's me, Caleb.

Me-Oh hey, what's up? Why're you calling me?

Caleb-It's Tris, she's-

Me-Tris?! What's with her?!

Caleb-Listen! She's in the nearby hospital. She got into an accident! 

My whole world goes dark. It's all because of me. If I hadn't made her mad, then she wouldn't have gone to god knows where, and got into an accident. I start panicking. 

Me-I'll be there in a while!  

I hang up and hop onto my motorcycle and drive as fast as I can to the nearby hospital. I run to the receptionist. 

"Tris Prior." I say. 

"She's in ward 64." She tells me.

"Thank you so much!" I say and run to see Caleb, in one of the benches, with his head in his hands. 

"Caleb?" I call out. He looks at me. 

"They just took her out for surgery. The doctor said she had no serious injuries but she had a minor concussion and fractured her right wrist." He says and my stomach lurches. 

"This is all my fault." I say.

"How is it your fault?" He asks.

"Well, we had a fight and then..."I trail off. I don't wanna talk of that anymore. 

"It's okay. Not your fault. Fighting among couples is normal." He says.

"Where're your parents?" I ask.

"Oh, right. I forgot about them. You were the nearest person I could think of." He says and whips out his phone."Oh crap, my phone's dead."

"It's fine. I got my phone." I say. I take out my phone and dial Mr.Prior. 

Mr.Prior-Hi there! Andrew here!

Me-Mr. Prior, it's me Tobias.

Mr.Prior-My soon to be son-in law, you mean?

Me-Uh, yeah. I've got bad news.

Mr.Prior-oh, what is it?

Me-Tris got into an accident.

Mr.Prior-What?!

Me-Your daughter, Tris. She got into an accident. She's in surgery at the Chicago hospital right now. 

Mr.Prior-Me and Natalie will be right there tomorrow. Because we're not in that city right now. We gotta catch the first flight to Chicago. Please be there with her.

Me-Okay.

He hangs up. When I turn back, Caleb is nowhere to be seen. Then, he comes running out of a corridor in my direction. 

"Don't worry. Just went to check on her progress. She's out of surgery. They're switching her to the right now. But we can't see her. She can't be disturbed." He says. 

"Okay, right." I say. I hope she's okay.
