Dauntless High

Chapter 13

Tris POV

I haven't seen Tobias at school at all today. I asked everyone and they haven't seen him either. So I decided to see what's up after school. As soon as school ended I ran out the door, hopped onto my motorcycle and rode to his house which was fairly close to mine. I called his phone and I heard a faint "Hello?" From Tobias. "Listen I am your front door we need to talk." I say to him there is a slight pause then he says "Ok I will be down in a minute." When he opened the door I could see his blood soaked t-shirt and I frowned. "It happened again didn't?" I ask and he nods. "Is he home?" He shakes his head. "Let me see the wounds." He shakes his head. "Tobias I know what I am doing. Let me see the wounds." Finally he takes off his shirt and it is worse then I thought it would be." After examining his back I tell him to put his shirt back on. "I am going to get medical supplies from my house I will be right back." I quickly run two houses down and run inside and My parents are there "How was school today sweetie?" My mother asking trying to make friendly conversation. "I can't talk right now mom." I say and run into the bathroom and grab the medical supplies. When I come back out my father says "Where are you going with that?" Did I look that suspicious? Yeah You just came in your house and you are taking all this medical supplies for no reason. "Friends house." I say I needed and excuse and fast. "Why do you need medical supplies?" My father asks. "I am training her to be a nurse." He looked at me suspiciously. "Ok how long will this training be?" I had no idea I was going to patch Tobias up and then stay there for a while. "I am going to stay over her house so I won't be back till tomorrow." I say and I show him the pre-packed bag I had in my hand. "So are you going to stay over Christina's?" My mother asks me. I nod and text Christina.

Me: Chris I need you to cover for me and say that I am at your house.

Christina: Okay. Wait are you going over Four's? 😉

Me: Thanks! and Shush!

Christina: Whatever. Have fun and use protection!

Me: Chris seriously stop it that's getting annoying and I highly doubt that, "that" is going to happen.

Christina: Whatever you say.

Me: Go kiss Will or something.

Christina: Bye!

Me: Bye!

After my awkward little text conversation with Christina, I ran back to Tobias' house. I knocked on the door and he opened it and looked worse and even more tired then he did when I left. I told him to take his shirt off and he did. I wrapped his back and iced his bruises and bandaged his cuts. "Thanks Tris." he said when I was finished. "No Problem." I smiled and him. "I told my parents I was staying with Christina tonight, so I can stay with you tonight." He smiled for the first time since I got back from school. "Your the best you that?" he asked and I nod and say, "Yes I do know that." He laughs a bit and then stops probably because it hurts him. We both sit in the couch. we sit there and watch Cartoons because we are kids at heart which gives him another cute factor. at the commercial Tobias went to go get us some more popcorn. I checked my phone and I got a call from Christina. Tobias wasn't back yet so I called her back and she picked up. "Hello?" she said. "Hey Chris it's me. You called me earlier what do want?" I said and then I heard a voice in the background and it said "Give me the phone now or I will shoot." All I can think is 'oh Shit' who was going to shoot. "Hello Trissy Poo." and then I reconsider the voice it was Peter. He is one of Eric's cronies. "What do you want?" I said demanding. "Bossman wants you to meet him at the diner tomorrow at 4pm." I wasn't going to meet him. "Why would he think I would do that?!" I yell a little. "Because we have your so called 'Boyfriend.' If you don't come we will shoot him!" I felt tears well up in my eyes. "Don't you touch him or so help me God I will kick you so hard you will never have children!" I hear a laugh coming from someone else it was Eric. "I thought you liked kids." I scoff. "Haha very funny." I hear Tobias' back door open and it was Tobias and looked beat up even more. I quickly hung up and rushed to his side. "Did they do that to you?!" I asked and looked tired and beat. He didn't deserve this. Eric was going to pay. But how?
