Chapter 4: A Silent Goodbye

Author's Note: You don't have to read this note, but please read the note at the end! I'm really really really really really really really really really REALLY SORRY that i don't update a lot, or ever.  I know I shouldn't be making up excuses, but it's hard for me to find a good time to write where I feel inspired and motivated to write. However, I am SO thankful for the people who like and support my story even though I never update. Also I recently got back from Japan and have started to feel weird or sick or something, and I've recently been going through a family emergency. Anyways, thanks for reading my story and I'll talk to ya soon! Oh and sorry, but in the last chapter I said an apology in advance for if I forgot things about the story. -Hana (the author, if you didn't know my name, now you do)

(Reader P.O.V.) (Um you don't have to keep writing that, Hana. We know what point of view it is because you write that in every other chapter. Ok, I'm sorry I'm getting off topic.)

It's time. Breathe. Breathe. Count to ten, and back. I can hear my heart beating out of my chest from nervousness and excitement. It is time to finally choose. It's time to choose! I can't believe it. I feel so much anxiety building deep in my stomach, but at the same time, I can't help but feel proud of myself for making it this far without going completely insane. Okay, I think this is it. 

Each faction walks out one by one in a single-file line, and I'm in the middle of it. I look past a couple of heads and see Jeremy. I know I can only see the back of his head, but if I know Jeremy, he probably has a very serious expression. We sit down in comfy seats, and each people start to loosen up a bit, socializing and gossiping amongst themselves.

Jeremy finally walks up and takes the knife into his right hand. He looks at all of the bowls and his eyes land on one of them for a long time. He looks again at Abnegation, makes a cut into his left hand with the knife, and makes an extremely soft grunt of pain. His hand reaches down to the Erudite bowl and he lets a couple drops of bloods fall. The Erudite people all start to cheer for him as he turns around with a slight smile on his face. Our eyes lock for a second and we both just smile at each other, but then his eyes fall to my parents, specifically on our father who gives him a stern and angry look. Jeremy brushes it off and smiles at our mother who gladly returns it.  

I start to walk up to where all the bowls are, and I can hear my heart pounding in my ears. I take the knife and look at the bowls, and just like Jeremy, my eyes land on Abnegation for a bit longer. I make a cut into my hand and make what sounds like a a small gasp of pain as blood appears. I let the blood fall into a bowl. The Dauntless bowl. After just one droplet, I can already hear people cheering from the Dauntless faction, and I feel some weight lifting off my chest. I turn to see my brother sitting with Erudite, and we both smile, then to the Dauntless faction who are still cheering. Finally I look towards my parents and see my mother smiling at me with teary eyes that I hope are from joy. I look right next to her and see my father. He glances at me once, then looks to face another parent and begins talking with them, not even looking a me again. I look quickly back to my mom as I sit down and see a couple of tears slip down her cheeks, but this time, I know they are from joy. 

Many more hours pass, and it is time to go with our factions. As everyone is running towards the door, I look back at my mom, and we exchange knowing looks. A look that said, "Goodbye. I love you." I am pushed out the door before I know it, and I start running with the Dauntless, ready to start my new life.

A/N: Sorry this chapter was kind of short, but this author's note is pretty important so please read it! I was wondering if you guys wanted me to write this story exactly like the movie and book, or if it was ok for me to write some original ideas. I wouldn't change a lot from the original story, I would just add in a few things, or replace little scenes with some things I created. It's completely up to you guys and I'm fine with anything, so don't be afraid to comment what you want! I will decide based on the majority of people, so please comment what you want! Thank  you all so much for reading my story, even though I barely post, and I'll write another chapter as soon as I can!

Bye Boo Bears! (I honestly don't really have an "outro," so I might just say something random each time) Ok bye!

-Hana
