The next morning, I get the same call from Tori, only this time, I didn't fall out of the bed. I got up, and I tripped over something in the way. So much for not falling this morning. Once I got up, I got changed and went into the front room. 

I heard a knock on the door and I opened it. I saw Chris standing there.

"What do you want. It's like, eight in the morning." I said.

"Eight-thirty to be exact." she said.

"I don't care." I said.

"Just came over to wonder if yo..." I had to cut her off.

"Oh no, I think I hear Four calling for help. I'll see you later." I said.

I closed the door, and locked it. I am not going to go shopping with that woman. I walked into the room, and saw Tobias snoring on the other side of the bed. 

"The least he could do is pick up his sock." I said.

I picked up his dirty sock and threw it at him. I accidentally landed in his mouth. He then sat up and gagged on the sock. 

"Oops." I said.

"Are you trying to kill me?" he asked once he got the sock out of his mouth.

"No, just trying to teach you to pick up your socks. You then wonder why you never have any." I said.

He just grunted at me. I rolled my eyes at him. I walked into the kitchen and grabbed food out of the fridge. I heard foot steps come into the kitchen. I knew who it was, so I didn't care to turn around.

He just stayed quiet like he is gong to try to scare me. 

"Ha ha, very funny, I know you are there." I said.

He just stayed quiet. What ever, I turned around and walked out of the kitchen. There was another knock at the door. I went over to the door to open it. Great, it was Chris again. 

"No." I said.

"Why not?" she asked.

"Because...Oh, i think that was Four, got to go." I said.

I shut the door in her face and went into the kitchen. I saw Tobias sitting on the floor. 

"You can get up now." I said.

He slowly got up and walked out of the kitchen. He is acting weird today. I decided to go and take a walk. I had to grab my gun and I left. 

It is starting to get cold around the compound now. Winter is coming fast. 

I ran into some one down the hall. I turned around and saw Peter.

"I thought you disappeared or something." I said aloud.

"What?" he asked.

"I haven't seen you in a long time." I said.

He just shrugged his shoulders. I actually thought he was dead or something. I haven't seen him in a long time.

"Where have you been anyways?" I asked.

"I've been working, plus I started to visit Caleb a lot. He's pretty smart." he said.

"Of course he is smart, he's in Erudite. He's a nose." I said.

"What ever." he said.

"It the truth." I said.

"We're not in Candor." he said.

"I know. This is Dauntless, we don't put up with those Pansycakes." I said.

After that we were just quiet down the rest of the hall. I saw Chris coming toward us.

"I'll see you later." I said.

I then took off running. There is no chance Chris will catch me with those heels. I got back to the apartment, and closed the door and locked it before Chris could come in. 

"What the heck are you running from?" Tobias asked.

"The high heel terror." I said.

"I heard that!" Chris yelled form the other side of the door.

"See." I said.

"Yeah, I know, what does she want?" he asked.

"Shopping." I said really quietly.

"Oh, that, yeah, well, that is your problem. You have twenty seconds to hide before I open the door." he said.

"Okay, but no peeking from you." I said.

He covered his eyes and counted to twenty. I got down low just in case if he is peeking. I quickly crawled to the lower cabinets. I took everything out of it and put it in the other cabinet, and then stuffed my self in there. I am so glad to be small.

"Okay, I'm letting her in." Tobias shouted.

I heard the door open and Tobias was explaining to Chris that I was hiding and he had no clue where I was. 

"I will find her. Let me go get different shoes." she said.

As the door closed, I quickly got out and went to the bedroom.

"I got a new game. I'll be sick and sleeping in. You tell Chris that you found me and I was coming down with a cold." I said.

"Okay." he said.

I quickly got under the covers of the bed. I then waited for Chris to come back. After a few minutes, I heard the door open and close. 

"I found her, but she is coming down with a horrible cold. She is currently asleep." he said.

I then heard foot steps. I rolled on my stomach and pretended to be asleep. I heard the door creak, and then loud foot steps. Then the covers were yanked off of me, but I still didn't give up.

"Are you sure she is sick, she looks normal to me." Chris said.

"She is running a high fever. Oh, look at the time, I think Will is calling for you." Tobias said.

I heard then talking then a door slammed shut and the lock got locked. I the got out of the bed.

"Thank goodness she is gone." I said.

"Yep, I heard to push her out of the door. She said that I couldn't push, well, guess what, I did. Who's the loser now?" he said.

"You." I said.

He then pretended to be hurt.
