Story Time (Divergent)

Chapter 4- The Give Away

Well, would you look at this. You guys are very lucky today. You get four chapters in one day. I don't know if there it like a little record of the most chapters posted in a day, but if there is. I bet I'd be in the top 5 or 10.

So a little heads up. I'm just going to wing it from here. I have writers block for this chapter. So I'm just going to have some fun here.

*again, I do not own Divergent. That belongs to the great Veronica Roth

Chapter 4 – The Give Away

Tobias' POV

"Did you make it? Did you get hurt? Was there something or someone to catch you?" These kids and their questions tonight.

"Are you going to keep interrupting me with 20 questions every five minutes? Or are you going to let me tell the story until the end, or when I see that you're both too tired to stay awake any longer?" Tris is going a bit to the angry side. One more interruption like that, I may need to come out of hiding early.

Just as that thought left my head, our dog, Bear, decides to wake up at the worst possible time, to grab my jacket sleeve and start pulling it, and growling with it in his mouth. He's making so much noise that Tris comes out from Jenna's bedroom, and stares at me wide eyed with her mouth open.

"Hey, Tris, I-" She cuts me off.

"How long have you been there?" There goes her impression of my 'Four' tone. Now she's really angry with me.

"I've been here since 9:00" We both look at the clock, and it says 10:00p.m.

"So you've been there this whole time, making me think you're working late or something, when you've just been sitting here this whole time?!" Yup, angry Tris is here. How will I get out of this-

"Mommy, what was Bear up to and what-" My thoughts are interrupted by Jake and Jenna come running out and coming to a halt. They've never seen their mommy and daddy fight before. They stare wide eyed as Tris is about to start yelling.

"Um, Tris?" I say looking back at the kids and back to her. Hoping she'll get the hint to calm down.

"What-" She is in mid yell when she turns around to see out little ones scared and Jenna somewhat on the verge of tears.

And here come the tears. Jenna starts to cry, and Jake begins to get teary not long afterwards.

"Oh no." Tris says, as she realizes that made the kids cry. I run over and take Jake while Tris takes Jenna, We all head to mine and Tris' room. Laying the kids down on the bed, trying to get them to calm down. Five minutes later, there is only the sounds of shh's and sniffling little kids.

"We didn't mean to upset you two-" I begin, but Tris cuts me off.

Tris' POV

As Tobias begins explaining, I cut him off because I can't help but feel like this is mostly my fault "There is just something that daddy did that made mommy upset. There is nothing to be scared of or sad about." She takes them into her arms, and brings them into a tight hug.

Jake is the first to speak. "Daddy, what did you do?" I knew that question was going to come up from one of them.

"I was home all along while mommy was telling you the story. I was hiding until you two little ones went to sleep. Now that I think about it," This time, he looks at me as he says "I shouldn't have done that. Daddy is very sorry and should have gone in as soon as daddy got home from work."

Tobias gives me that pouting face that I can't get past. I can't stay mad at him with that face, and he knows it. I give him a smile that says it ok. To make sure he knows he's forgiven, I give a quick kiss on the lips.

The kids make long 'ew' sounds. That makes both my and Tobias laugh.

"Ew huh?" Tobias says smiling at me them faces the kids. "I'll give you ew." He turns back to me and kisses me a little longer than before, which earns more ew's from to Jake and Jenna.

We laugh, then tickle them until we see that they are getting really tired.

"Mommy, can daddy finish telling the story?" But not tired enough to give the story a break.
