Four woke us up in the middle of the night for a field trip he said and we need to be ready for half an hour. We all woke up and put on our uniforms. I checked Tris's bed and it was still empty.
"She's still in the infirmary?" I asked and Christina nodded.
"I want to check up on her before we're headed to the train. Wanna come?" She offered and I nodded.
"You wanna come, Jen?" I asked her who was busy tying her boots. She nodded but her brother scoffed and left the dorm.
"Sorry I think I'll follow Jack..." She answered and I tapped her shoulder before she left.
"Man, is he still jealous or what!?" Said Will and I just shrugged.
Christina, Will, and I then jogged to the infirmary to see Tris before we were going for the game night. We entered the room and I saw Louisa stood at the end of Tris's bed examining her. I said hi and hugged her before she left the infirmary to go to the nurses' room next door. Tris was still unconscious; her lips were cut and her forehead swollen up. Christina and I sat at the edge of her bed waiting for her to wake up. A couple minutes later, Tris slowly opened her eyes.
"Wow... You look... Look bad!" Chuckled Christina.
"How long have I been here?" Tris blinked her eyes and rubbed her head maybe because of her headache.
"About a day," answered Christina.
"A day?" Tris looked so shocked and disappointed with herself. "Have you seen the scoreboard? Where am I?"
"You got below the line," answered Christina.
"Why are you wearing those vests?" she asked.
"War games." Replied Christina and Tris suddenly tried to get up from her bed. "Woah! What are you doing?"
"I'm coming!"
"Tris, you need to rest," I told her.
"Eric says you're done." Said Will.
"What?" Tris's eyes widened and she couldn't believe what Will just said to her.
"He said you're out," continued Will.
"When did he say that?" I asked not knowing about this before.
"He told Peter after we left the gym yesterday," explained Will.
Tris looked at me, probably thinking that Eric might change his mind if I talked to him. But I shook my head because I know nothing about this and she looked kind of defeated.
"I'm sorry, Tris..." I said.
"It's not your fault, Roxy," she tried to give a little smile.
"Your father's on the council, Tris. Maybe they'll make an exception and let you go home," said Will as optimist as possible, but we all knew that would never going to happen. "We're so sorry Tris,"
"We gotta go. We're gonna miss the train," said Will and both Christina and me got up from Tris's bed. "Bye..." Christina hugged her and I did the same, "don't give up!" I whispered to her before we all left the infirmary.
We all faster our running so we didn't miss the train but when we got there, other initiates weren't inside of the train yet they were helping Four and Eric picked up some boxes carrying inside the train. I quickly picked one and walked to the train passing by Eric. I lowered my head tried to avoid eye contact with him and act as normal as possible because I know he didn't want anybody to know about us. Eric didn't try to stop me either but I could see from the corner of my eye that his eyes were following me until I got into the train.
