Tris POV

"I was 6 when my brother and mom died in a car crash. Since then my 'father' has blamed me for their deaths. Saying how no one love me, that I am a useless good for nothing person, and would beat me. It use to not be so bad, my best friend would help me a lot but he moved away when I was 12. After he left I never was good with friends, around when I was 13 I got caught up in the wrong crowd, they did drugs and drank. At first I didn't join in but after a lot of persuasion I gave in. That became my escape from my life. The only reason I quite was one night I was driving drunk and got into a wreck my best friend died on impact. When I explained everything to the police they sent me to rehab for about a year. I got out right after Christmas last year. My 'father' still tells me how worthless I am and beats me. Since Christmas I have begun to cut and have stopped eating." I look at everyone and all they all look at me with small smiles." Tris we have to get out of that house." Uriah says. I shake my head. "I can't leave he would find me and hurt anyone that got in his way. I wouldn't be able to stand myself if yall got hurt." They give me a sad look, after a few minutes of silent Zeke speaks up. "So is your best friend from when you were little is Four?" "Yeah." I look up at Tobias and hold his hand. They smile and Christ looks down at my hand. "TRIS what is that on your finger!?!?!" A big grin appears on my face. "My engagement ring." She lets out a high pitched squeal. "When did this happen?" I look over at Tobias. "Umm... I'm pretty sure the day she went into the coma. Honestly I don't know how you didn't notice before now." She shrugs her shoulders, after a few hours everyone decides to head home. Tobias and I sit there and talk about random things. Out of the blue Tobias asks me something. "Will you move in with me?" "What?" I ask surprised. "Will you move in with me? Like you and I look for an apartment with me?" "I would love to." I lean over and kiss him. Just then a nurse walks in. "Hello Mrs. Prior, I have a few questions for you? Can you tell me why your back is covered in scars?" I look over at Tobias and he takes my hand. I nod at the nurse and tell her about my father and everything that has happened. When I finish she gives me a sympathetic look. "Well you do know that I'm going to have to call the police about this right?" "Yeah. As long as I can get away from that monster i don't care what you do." She nods and heads out. I scoot over in my bed. "Come lay with me Tobias. I want to cuddle with you." He smiles and climbs in next to me. Wrapped in his arms I fall into a peaceful sleep.
