Chapter 19

Four's POV

I wake up by a sudden movement on my side and a moan. I blink and rub my eyes, trying to stay awake. I come face first with the bright color of the numbers of my alarm clock to see that it's just 2:00 pm. We just slept for 1 hour.

I hear a painful moan and turn to my side to see Tris on a fetal position holding her stomach with her hands.

- Tris - every trace of sleep I had now is gone - what's wrong?

-Nothing! - She snaps at me then lets out a groan, holding her stomach tighter. I move closer and put my hand on her cheek, this time she does not move away.

- Tell me, please - I beg. I hate seeing her in pain.

- Just - She says suddenly ok but still out of breath - just cramps.

I blink a few times and realization sinks in. I remember seeing this topic at school and suddenly I feel uncomfortable.

- Uhhh - I stutter, not knowing what to say.

- Go to work - She says, shooing me with her hand - I'll be fine - She reasures me.

I just nod and put my shoes on. This topic is really unsettling for me, I don't know what to do. Before heading out to the control room - I talked to Max and he said that I could work there again since intiation was eight months away and I suck at coming up with battle strategies - I turn around and look at Tris.

- Do you need anything?

She shakes her head and flashes me a small smile - I'll go to Christina's, don't worry.

I just nod and head out. I spent the next five hours joking with Zeke and staring at the screens waiting for something to happen which, fortunately or unfortunately, doesn't happen.

I make my way to the dinning hall, Zeke by my side, hoping to see Tris. If she is better then I'll sit with her, if not...then I'll run. I finally burst through the double doors but I see no sight of Tris. Sighing in relief, which gains me a curious glance from Zeke, I take my plate, sit down and attack my food. We sit with Tris friends since we got along pretty well the other day and since Zeke's brother and Shauna's sister are here. I notice that neither Tris nor her best friend are here, Christina, Tris had called her.

- Hey - Zeke turns towards me - where's your girl?

I just shrug and shake my head. I turn back to my food but he does not let me go so easily.

- Why are you avoiding her? - I look at him surprised. Am I being that obvious?.

- Why are you ignoring Shauna? - I answer with a question of my own. I notice he sits as far away as possibles from her when normaly they'd be sucking each other's faces.

- She is on her days - He whispers as if that was a dangerous thing to say.

- Same with Tris.

- Ahh you met the devil then.

- Close - I have the feeling that it could have been worse but you want to frighten the almighty Four? Just bring his girlfriend whilst she is on her days near him.

I finish my food and wave my goodbye, heading towards Tris' apartment even though I don't want to deal with this right now but hey! I love her and I am going to have to deal with it each month. I stop dead in my tracks when I register what I just thought. I love her? where did that come from? I shake my head. Maybe it was the lack of dauntless cake, yeah, that must be.

I am now standing in front of Tris' door deciding if I should knock or just go in using the keys Tris gave me. I decide just to go in so that's what I do.

I find her on the couch, staring into space, lost in her own thoughts that I hope she will once share someday. Five minutes pass until her eyes gain focus and her punch flies to my heads, but I dodge it in time.

- Four! don't scare me like that! - I could almost see steam coming out of her ears.

- I am sorry. I didn't mean to - I say, sitting beside her and gathering her in my arms. I kiss the top of her head and she snuggles her head on my neck. - You better now?

I feel her nod against my shoulder then she raises her head and pecks me on the lips.

- I didn't mean to snap at you - her voice trembles and I see her eyes gleam with tears.

- Don't cry! - I urgently say. I give her a brief kiss, trying to cheer her up without making her angry. - don't worry about it.

She nods and lays her head on my chest. I breathe in relief and enjoy the moment with the most beautiful girl in my arms. Which is ruined when Tris' best friend, Christina, burst through the door, crying her eyes out.

Tris shoots up from the couch and meets her friend mid way to the living room, crushing her into a big hug.

- Christina, what's wrong? - I hear the concern for her friend on each word. She would've fit in abnegation. My mood darkened at the thought of Tris near my "father", the monster.

- Will - Christina wails out. Tris turns towards me and swiftly points at the door.

- Out - She orders. I quickly stand up and walk out, not before pecking her on her lips and giving Christina a nod. Once the doors closes after me I sigh.

I guess I am free for the night.
