Chapter 41

Four's POV

It's been two weeks since Tris and I got back together, but things haven't been the same. Technically, she never forgave me, we just had sex.

When she is with me, she is reserved and an awkward silence falls over us each time I try to start a dialogue. She doesn't trust me. It's obvious, and I know that I deserve it but it hurts. But I hurt her and that's the price I have to pay.

I head towards the control room. Initiation finally ended, Lauren ended up training them for me. Unfortunately Cory ranked first, bur at least Samara got sencond. Nobody was made factionless and Tris wasn't happy about Chloe staying with us.

Speakinf of her, she is supposed to be here by now. She said she would meet me here, at the bottom of the chasm.
I hear a noise coming from above but don't bother to turn around.

Tris clears her throat and I snap my head towards her, just to have my mouth on the floor and my eyes wide open. She is wearing a beautiful black dress that goes to mid thigh.

- You look beautiful - I breath out. I am sure she does not hear because of the noise but she reads my lips and send a wink in my direction.

- Thank you - she mouthes back, then proceeds to sit right next to me. I put my arm around her shoulders and pull her towards me so she is leaning on me. She rests her head on my chest and we sit in silence for while, listening to the waves crashing onto the rocks.

- What did you want me to meet you here? - I ask, breaking the silence. Tris detatches herself from me and grabs a basket from behind that I failed to see. - Wha...

- We didn't have a chance to celebrate our anniversary, so I thought. Why not today?

I am left speechless, staring at her like a fool and the guilt comes crashing down. I can't believe I forgot about it! I am the worst boyfriend ever. I open my mind to apologize but she she sees this coming and puts her index finger on my mouth to stop me from speaking.

- Don't you dare apologize. We were both busy. I am a woman so it makes sense that I remembered - She cracks a smile and I smile, her finger still on my mouth, she realizes that and takes it off.

- Sorry - I blurt out. She rolls her eyes and sighs.

- Let's eat. Shall we?

I just nod in response and watch as she takes two hamburgers, some ketchup and two cans of soda. Without another word we dig in, making small talk once in a while.

- Can you believe - She starts, after swallowing. - That when I got here, I didn't now what this was - she holds her hamburger in the air to make her point.

- Really? - I ask, amusement clear in my voice.

- I mean, I had seen them before but I didn't know how to eat one of these - She chuckles at the memory - So Christina explained it to me, not before doing an annoyingly honest comment about my lack of hamburger knowledge, and told me to put some ketchup on it. Now it is my favourite food.

I stare at her in silence and she stares back, raising an eyebrow. I start laughing, proyecting that memory in my head, imagining her confused face.

- Don't laugh! - She yells at me, her face tomato red. This makes me laugh even harder. Tris waits for me to calm down, but I can't seem to stop. I don't sober up until I see her stand up and start walking away.

- Wait! - I yell, gasping for air. I grab her hand and yank her back to me. She lands with a thud on my lap and I snake my arms around her waist. - I am sorry, I didn't mean to laugh at you, I just...

- Hey it's okay, I am not mad - She smiles at me, then gets off my lap and goes back to her hamburger. I finished mine minutes ago.

- Can I ask you something? - I cautiosly say, waiting for her to finish her hamburger.

- Shoot - She says. And I give her a nervous smile while scratching the back of my neck.

- Did you forgive me already?

Tris chokes on her soda and stares at me wide eyed, as If I were stupid. I probably am.

- Well, yeah - She says, but she sounds unconvinced. - why would you think otherwise?

- Because there's no way you could have forgiven me already. I treated you like shit, and you didn't deserve any of that, I hit you!!

- It was an accident - She tries to reason with me, but I am not taking any of that.

- Come on, Tris. You have the scars! - I grab her arm, the one that got cut with the vase - you have been avoiding me for the past two weeks.

- I am hurting , Four! My parents just died, just a month has passed by since their dead, and you breaking up with me, well, I am hurting. Can't you get that? I am grieving. Their funeral was just a week ago...- Her voice breaks but no tears make their way down her face.

- Their funeral? - I ask, surprised by this fact.

- Yeah, Caleb called me and we went last week, that I told you I needed to go to Abnegation.

- Why didn't you tell me? - I ask, the hurt evident in my voice. I knew she didn't trust me, but I expected her to at least tell me about that.

- Because I knew that you would want to come with me - heck yeah! - But I didn't want you too.

Ouch. Tris must have seen the hurt in my face because she hurries to explain herself.

- I needed you there by my side, but Marcus was attending too, and I didn't want you to suffer, seeing him there...- her voice turns small.

- Look, I appreciate your concern, but that was my decision to make.

She stares at me in disbelief and shakes her head.

- You are impossible. Is it really necessary to discuss this in our aniversary? - She huffs, readjusting her ponytail and one of her ear piercings.

- Pfff are we sure we even dated for a year? Because it seems like we just spent it fighting all the time - as soon as those words leave my mouth, I regret them. Tris' face is covered in hirt and sadness,and I hate myself for causing her so much pain.

- Tris...- I say, reaching out my hand to touch her. She pulls away, taking out a piece of dauntless cake from the basket and hands it to me.

- Maybe this can sweeten your soul. - Saying that, she stands up and leaves, leaves me with my head buried in my hands and two pieces of dauntless cake.

I stay there for a while until I decide that Tris is calm enough to go and talk to her, and that's what I do. I pick up everything and make my wait to Tris' apartment. I knock twice and wait.

Tris opens the door and looks surprised to see me, and give her a smile, but she does not return it.

- Four - She starts, and I know this is going to end bad - you are right, what we have is not exactly a healthy relationship, we are always fighting and...and that needs to stop.

I don't like where this is heading.

- but we are like this, we fight, but we make up at the end of the day! - I try to take back my other words but Tris is dead set on something and I know I won't be able to change her mind.

- I think we need a break - She says. And my insides shatter again, but I know she is right. So I just nod and without a word turn my back on the love of my life, the worst mistake I've ever done.
