TO RECOMMENCE

2: A life without Tris

Tobias POV

2  1/2 years later

I wake to the sound of Evelyn pounding so loud on my door I think she's going to break a fist sized hole in it. I rub my heavily shut eyes with the back of my hand as I try to stand up in my bed. However, my sheets have other plans for me because they wrap around my ankles and I greet the lovingly floors embrace with a nice kiss.

"Shit!" I say as I feel blood running down my lip. Damn it! My lip just healed to from my last fall too!

I rub my eyes once I regain my footing. Late last night I went zip lining over the city so I didn't get much of my manly sleep . Even though ziplinning scares me shitless, I've been doing it a lot because it helps me feel closer to Tris. I know I'm still whipped after 3 years. Sometimes it helps, but it doesn't bring her back.

I hop into the shower like a fluffy rabbit as the ice cold water runs down my face and chest. I cant get her out of my fucking mind. I still haven't moved on and its almost been 3 years after her death! 3 years! I could like be 3 years older in 3 years! Okay so bad comeback but the main point is I could do a lot in 3 years! I know I should just forget about her but easier said then done.

I grab a warm blue fluffy towel and dry my short brown poop hair.  I smoothly, unlike my awakening this morning, put on a white v-neck shirt and some cargo shorts before heading out to the living room. My mom, the heartless bitch  you used to know but isnt anymore, is cooking eggs over the stove in my apartment. She usually comes over all the time to make sure I'm okay but seriously I can take care of myself. Psh what am I saying I probably would have died of starvation if she wasn't here. I cant cook to save my life.

My apartment isn't anything spectacular. Its a simple 2 bedroom 3 bathroom apartment. it has a big view over the city in the living room which is pretty cool, but more of a Tris thing, it still scares me shitless when I look down.

I greet my mom with a kiss on the cheek, as I walk into the kitchen.

"Thanks," I say as grab the plate of eggs and start eating on the way to the table.

"Dont you dare drop those eggs on the floor!" Mom shouts.

"Ok" I say as I very quietly pick up the pieces of fallen eggs.

"Mother, I'm going in for work today," I breath out once I sit down. I have been working at the control room for the past 3 years. I, along with Zeke and Matthew, watch all the business meetings and make sure the town isn't going to go through another attack. We work in secret though so no one knows were watching. Where like Adult mutant ninja turtles. I'm of corse Leonardo because he's the man, man. When we came back to Chicago we weren't surprised to find a bunch of cameras scattered in every alleyway and every crack of the street.  Matthew (AKA Dontetello) hacked into the cameras and used them to watch every single person.I

"Well you better get going then," she says.

"Okay, bye" I say as I head out my door and down the rickety stairs to Zekes apartment. We live in the same apartment building just on different levels which is great for me, less work. I know your probably wondering how I get these great abs and look like a fricken model. Here I'll tell you I use these things called wait for it...

Steroids.

Just kidding, I'm not that idiotic no offense to all those body builders out there who use these. There just bad for you because you could like... Die!

Mathew is already there when I arrive at my so called work place. I grab the handle and put on my very manly facade and walk in.

"Hey Tob whats up man," Zeke says when I head over to the computers. He's Mikey. I can see the orange bandanna cant you. Plus he totally looks like a turtle.

"Tob? seriously?"

"What? I think fits you," Zeke says with a smirk.

"Dude, just stop trying," Matt says with a smirk. His big ass glasses falling down his face.

"Hey Matt, Zeke?" I ask. A smirk forming on my face.

"Yeah?" they both say with curious faces. Hash! Wait till they find out what comes out of my mouth next.

My face rises and then falls as I say "Shut up."

They both break out laughing as I glare at them. I head over to my section of computers and sit down watching the computer as it shows a family of three walking down the street. The mother, father, and daughter.

Tris immediately consumes my thoughts thinking of what it would have been like if that was us.

If only I could have saved her... And now were back to my depressing sob story.

All of the sudden a figure in black comes rounding the corner by the family.

A piece of blond hair falls into the persons face out of her hoodie. She moves stealthily across the pavement until she looks straight up at the camera and smirks, her blue eyes connecting with mine.

No, it can't be her she's dead. Holy shit! Its like her clone. But just as fast a she looked up she pulls out a gun and shoots the camera.
