Christina's P.O.V
I sit staring in at the needle in Ben's hand. I refused Mathew's offer to hold my hand but I'm now starting to regret my decision. I gave up on closing my eyes because it made me even more scared.
"You'll be okay. I know dauntless are brave." Mathew says, gently.
But I'm not brave. I can't keep myself from shaking at the sight of Ben's needle. At this moment Ben finishes with the needle.
"Ok." Ben says, calmly. "Ready?"
'No' I want to say, but I have to let them do this. I nod, shakily.
Ben cleans my shins where I cut them open on the train and I wince as it stings. Then he starts the stitches with no final warning.
I scream grabbing Mathew's hand. Ben brings the the needle through my skin again and I squeeze Mathew's hand, screaming louder. I look at him. He looks sad, like it pains him to see anyone in pain. I squeeze my eyes shut wishing this pain would end. I feel tears spilling out of the corners of my eyes. Ben pulls the needle through my shin again.
I know I'm crushing Mathews hand but he doesn't pull away.
"Look how brave you are," he whispers in my ear. "Almost done." Something in his voice tells me it's not almost over.
He thinks he's calming me when he calls me brave but he's really just reminding me what I'm not.
I open my eyes and realize immediately that it was a big mistake. I see Ben's gloved hands pulling a threaded needle through my skin. I feel hotter. The world around me is spinning.
Cliff hanger! Mwahahaha!!!!
