Frankly, I'm not that scared about meeting Tris's parents. What I'm afraid of is running into Marcus. Mr. And Mrs. Prior are quiet reserved people,as most Abnegation are. They shouldn't be too rude,its against their morals. Tris is still has her face burried in my neck from earlier. Her brother is such a jerk. I can't believe he called Tris a whore. She isn't,not in the slightest bit. She is beautiful,and smart, and brave and selfless. Among countless other things,I know that's why I love her.
"Thank you." Tris croaks
"For what?" I am officially confused.
"You think out loud sometimes."
" I do?" If I do,I've said some embarrassing things.
"Yeah, I just don't tell you."
In the distance, the gray of my childhood appears. I must have visually shuddrred, because Tris wraps her arm around my waist.
"I'm not going to let him hurt you." She says. I'm worried he'll hurt Tris.
"Neither am I. If he so much as glances at you the wrong way..." I clench my fists, as if I could  punch something any moment. Even if it is the last thing I do, he won't touch Tris.

When we jump off the train, Tris navigates us through the identical houses, until we find hers. Luckily, we don't pass Marcus's house. Tris knocks on the door,and her mother opens it.
"Tris!" Her mother cries,enthusiastically.
"Mom!" Tris shares the same enthusiastic tone.
"What is this marvelous young man doing here?"
"Well, you met him on visiting day. This is Four! We got married a couple weeks ago!"
"I was Four. Tobias Eaton." I reach my hand out,and she accepts.
"My daughter has picked a fine young man. While I would love to stay and chat,I have to go help the factionless. Visit me soon."
"Love you mom!"
"Love you too Tris." She shuts the door. We turn around. Then all I see is him.
