Divergent

Chapter 34

*Two Days Later*

Zeke helps carry my boxes to fours apartment, more like our apartment. I'm going to have to get use to saying that. He sets my things down at the door, then smiles.

"You can pay me in pizza or beer. Your choice." He says. Four chuckles from the couch and stands up.

"Here, thanks man." He says and hands him a twelve pack of beer.

"No problem, if you ever need help with anything, you know where to find me." He replies and leaves the room. Four turns towards me and presses his lips against mine.

"Four," i laugh out and gently push him away.
"Tris," he playfully mocks with a pout.

"What's gotten into you? The last few days you've been... I don't know, different." I state and he pulls me back into a kiss. I give in slowly kiss back. My arms loop around his neck and he tugs me closer to him.

"I don't know either. All I know is that I'm in love with you, and i don't want to lose you. I want to spend every moment possible with you." He replies and moves his hands to my waist.

"Love you too." I whisper and stand on my toes to kiss him. He smiles then let's of me.

"I cleared half of the closet and you have a dresser for your things." He states and lifts me boxes up.

"Four I got it. No heavy lifting!" I exclaim and take them from his arms. A frustrated look forms on his face and he takes my luggages.

"Can I wheel your bags to the room then?" He challenges.

"As long as you don't lift them off of the ground. Yes." I reply and he leads me to the closet. He opens it for me and I set my boxes down.

My eyes shut and four wraps his arms around me. My hair is slightly damp, and four and I are ready for bed. He's wearing a pair of basketball shorts, whereas I'm wearing his dark blue t-shirt.

I use to hate when girls went to school in their boyfriends clothes. But now I see why they did it. Fours shirt is warm and comfortable, and it smells like his cologne.

He pulls me to his chest and presses his nose against my neck. My eyes slightly open and I stare at the side of his cheek.

"I wish we could stay like this forever." I mumble and play with his fuzzy hair.

"Me too, but we need to get to work tomorrow." He sighs against my ear. I shiver closer to him and nod.

"We should get some sleep then." I whisper back. He pulls away and presses his forehead against mine.

"Yea we should." He says and keeps his eyes on mine. A blush forms on my face and we just stare at each other. For the first time I get to stare into his eyes without being creepy, because he's staring back.

"Yea." I quietly repeat.
"Yea." He echoes, but his eyes stay locked with mine. His lips sweetly press against mine and his hands clasp on to my waist. My arms wrap around his neck and I desperately kiss him back. When we breathlessly pull away he moves his lips to my neck and I gasp.

"That's not a good idea, we have work in the morning." I hoarsely murmur. My hands move to his chest and I lightly push him away. He lets out a frustrated sigh and kisses my forehead before closing his eyes.

"Goodnight, baby girl." He whispers.

"So, you didn't see anyone?" Four asks Susan.

"No, I only remember black ski masks. And their voices." She replies with a shiver.

"Do you remember any conversations between the guys? Anything at all?" He asks. Her eyebrows furrow and I can tell she's concentrating on a memory.

"They said something about being after a girl, to get revenge on her." She replies with a small nod. Fours eyes flicker to me and I catch my breath.

"Did they give a reason, for being after this girl?" I ask, knowing that this girl is me.

"The rest of the conversation got muffled. Someone had entered the room, I remember he sound of the metal door.... I do know that they said something about parents, agents I think." She replies, confirming my accusations.

"Thank you, Susan. I'm going to play a few voices for you. Can you tell me which one sounds familiar?" Four asks and types something into his laptop.

"Yea, sure." She replies and sits up a little bit. Four motions for me to come to his side and I lean over his shoulder.

There's a list of names written down:
Amar Patterson
Caleb Prior
David Matthews
Eric Schneider

Four looks at me for a go and k nod my head. He plays the first voice, a voice ice never heard before and Susan shakes her head.

Four crosses off Amar Patterson, then plays another voice. It sounds like clips of a phone call. I don't plan on asking four where he got these voice calls from. Because something defiantly tells me that he hacked into the FBI database and illegally downloaded private messages on to his laptop.

"That's it! That was one of the guys." Susan squeaks with wide eyes. I look at four and he stiffens.

"There's one more." He softly says and plays the last voice.

"That sounds familiar too." She whispers with a worried look in her eyes.

"Eric Schneider and David Matthews." Four whispers to me, so she can't hear.

"Thank you for helping us out Susan. We'll keep you up to date on the case. For now, get some rest." I say and pat her leg. She cautiously adds and stops us before she exits the room.

"Are you going to catch them? Are they coming back for me?" She whispers and years brim her eyes.

"Susan, you're safe here. They won't get to you. I can promise you that. I'll let Robert know that we're done here. He should be back any minute." I say and give her a small hug. Four and I file out of the room and rush to our apartment.

"What are we going to do? Are we telling Myra?" I ask in panic.

"We just confirmed that the erudite leader has her brother after you. I think that confirms that she's after you. We're going to have to tell Myra." He replies and I let out a sigh as he hugs me.

"We're going to get through this. We'll catch them." He adds promisingly.

"I trust you." I whisper back. And I do. I trust Tobias Eaton with my life, even though I've known him for under five months. He's the only one I know I can trust.
