One day they wont see my scars

Tobias pov (previous day)

~Dream~
I'm laying on the cool concrete floor in an abnegation house. My house. The walls are plain, little rays of sunlight come from the window.

My house has never been so peaceful.

Then the sky darkens. The room becomes engulfed in darkness. My heart beat starts to beat faster.

A spot light is turned on in front of me. Then a shadowy figure steps into the spotlight. My eyes widen.

Marcus.

He walks to me with a worn leather belt in his hand. He face completely emotionless. His dark hateful gaze is directed at me.

"You have ruined this family. You made your mother leave you obnoxious boy!" Marcus seethes. My heart beats at an unbelievable pace now. My body's still aches from yesterday's beating.

I don't dare reply. It will only make it worse.

His cocks the belt back and-

~Dream over~

*Bang*Bang*

I jolt awake to find Amar banging on a metal pole. Yelling at us to get up for the day.

My body's covered in a cold sweat. The dream felt so real. I could Actually feel the bruises from past beatings.

I jump out of bed and change into the required black and red uniform. I don't dare shower with people around. They'll see all the marks from my past.

One day I'm going to change that. One day people won't be able to see the all the 'love' I got from my father. If you can call him that.

"Hey stiff" Eric, an ex-erudite calls. I turn around to face him. He looks back at me with a devious smirk.

"Yes?" I ask shortly. I've learned to keep it short and sweet since I've been here.

"I hope you have your bags packed. You won't make it here in dauntless. Your too weak and pathetic, stiff" he tells me. But his game won't work on me I won't show and emotion, he can't have that satisfaction.

"I will make in dauntless Eric. Just you see" I say with determination. I will make it here. No matter what.

He only rolls his eyes and walks away muttering colorful words, that I'm pretty sure are directed at me.

We all follow Amar to the cafeteria after we're done dressing.

I walk a little bit back from the group. Nobody's really shown any kind of kindness to me besides Amar.

The walk to the cafeteria took only around five minutes. We all walk into the cafeteria.

"Alright we don't have much time. So grab a fruit over there and hurry up!" Amar tells us quickly. He looks at us with an urgent expression. And immediately we kick into gear.

We all grab either a apple or an orange. I grabbed an orange And start to peel-

"Wait don't eat that they've been tampered with" Amar yells. We all look at him questionable.

"The twins like to prank a lot. Be carful what you do" Amar warns us. We all look at our fruits questionably before throwing them away.

We began to walk agin. Amar starts to jog to an unknown location. We all follow. He makes a quick halt at the training room. He sneaks behind some equipment.

He motions us to follow. We sneak behind him. Grunts and smacks are heard in the room.

"We're going to watch the twins train. Just a warning it's brutal" Amar whispers. We all get to a spot to were we can see. And my breathe was knocked out of me.

There in the ring was tris, I believe her name is. She wore a yellow and black mesh sports bra. With short black nike shorts. Her long hair was in a high pony tail.

Her body was unbelievable lean and muscular. Not too muscular to were it was nasty but to wear it was tempting. Her skin was tanned to perfection.

I look to see all the boys drooling at her. A pang of jealousy goes through me. I just want to beat them all up for looking at her that way.

Wait, what?

I don't even know her. I can't be jealous. But I am somehow.

*wham*

I look to see tris holding Uriah in scissor hold. My eyes widen. She just kicked his ass!

"You gonna tap?" She asks him. He shakes his head no. She just keeps him in the scissor hold. His face starts to becomes a purple color.

"Do you concede?" She's asks agin. He nods. She immediately releases. He begins to gasp for air.

I begin to get lost in thought about her. What it would be like to hold her in my arms. What it would Be like to kiss her pink lips. What it would be like to hear her say my name.

What it would be like to have her simile at me lovingly. What it would be like to have her as mine.

Yells snap me out of my thoughts. Amar signals us to follow him. We all walk to were tris and Uriah are standing.

They look at us in disbelief.

"How long have you been there?" Tris asks confused. Amar just laughs uncontrollably.

"The...whole...time" he managed to say through his laughs. She eyes us all. Her eyes skim mine for a second and my heart skips a beat. I feel my face began to heat up.

What I'm blushing! She's making me blush! Oh god!

She and Uriah walk away after Amar tells them they're free to go. I realize something then and there.

I'm in love with Tris.
