Descendant (divergent fan fiction)

Endless Fears

"I don't need your help." I retort selfishly. I know he only wanted to help but I needed to do this by myself.

     "Okay but if you fall in catching you." Noah confirms.

     "No. Your not." I scold. "Make him leave the room." I smirk in his direction. I could care less if he stayed I just want to make him mad.

     "What?! Harper!" Noah accuses. "You can't do that!"

"Yeah I can." I smirk teasingly. One of my doctors gently pulls Noah by the arm as he sends me a glare and I poke my tongue out teasingly at him as the doors shut in front of him.

     "You ready?" Dr. McDaniel asked me.

     "Yeah." I nod. I start walking slowly and surely and I don't slow down. If anything I go faster and faster. With each step I feel stronger and stronger but then I feel my face hit the ground. Hard.

     "Are you okay?!" Dr. Mcdaniels screeches as she throws herself in my direction.

     "Yeah. I'm fine." I grin and let her help me up.

"How'd it go?" Noah asked me.

     "I fell." I said distractedly.

      "What happened?" He said alerted.

     "I got back up." I smile slightly looking up at him. Noah's eyes light up as he wraps his arms around me, pulling me up from the wheel chair.

     "Your back." He smiles into my ear.

     "I'm back." I smile.

"How'd you do after that?" He asks pulling apart from me.

"Perfect." I beam. "I walked everywhere!"

"Let's go get some cake to celebrate." Noah says helping me get back down in the chair.

"The cake here is nasty." I wrinkle my nose in disgust. "Nothing like Dauntless cake."

"I know. How 'bout... Pizza!" Noah suggests walking around me to push me.

"No." I say.

"No pizza?" He asks confused knowing my love for pizza.

"No I love pizza but I'm walking to the cafeteria." I say and Noah eyes me.

"I don't think that's a good idea." Noah says as I stand up.

"Well I'm doing it anyway and you can either help me." I grit my teeth as the familiar pain shoots through me. "Or not." I finish in a gasp.

"Fine." Noah's says hastily and takes one of my arms to support me. I limp into the hallway and then turn left toward the elevators. I press the button and it's there in a matter of seconds. I step on with slight help from Noah. When I stepped on I got a pitied look from somebody leaving the elevator but I just ignored them. My breathing was rather quick and came in short pants.

     "You okay?" Noah asks me coming up to me after pressing the main floor button.

     "Yeah. It's just-" I breath heavily. "Tiring." Noah nods obviously knowing me well enough not to question me further.

     "Your doing good." Noah notes smiling and connected out arms again to help support me.

     "Thanks." I huff and we start walking again. I lean my weight heavily on him as I make my way down the hall and toward the cafeteria. I step through the doors and I see or circle of friends around a table.
