Divergent High

Chapter 23: Four

I'll have to thank him later. I've been waiting for this after the spin the bottle game at my house. Now I have one last thing to do, I take a deep breath.

"Tris, do you want to go on a date with me?" I ask her and she smiles.

"Yes!" she says and I can tell she is holding back on the excitement in her voice. The she grabs my collar and pulls me to her, connecting our lips in a passionate kiss. We just stand there, and the warm, electric feeling spreads through my body.

"Okay, break it up." Zeke says, we ignore him.

"Guys come on, stop..." Chris says, yet again ignored.

"STOP KISSING!" Uri shouts shooting us with his paintball gun. Finally we pull apart smiling.

"Like you've never made out with Mar," Tobias says and Uri and Mar go red in the face, then we all laugh.

"Let's go back to my place to finish truth or dare!" Four says, we all reply something like 'Yes' or 'Sure' Then all pile in the cars and drive over to his house. When we go inside we go to the huge family room and sit in a 'circle'.

"Me first!" Uri says then thinks of his victim, "Trissy, Truth or Dare?"

"Dare, and if you ever call me Trissy again, you'll never have children." Tris says in a
very serious tone.

"I dare you to play seven minutes in heaven with Four!" She shrugs and pull me into the nearest room. At first we just kind of stand there awkwardly. The she kisses me and I greatfully kiss back. She wraps her hands around my back and I wince, Marcus beat me last night and my back is still raw.

Tris pulls back and looks at me concerned.

"What happened to you?" she asks, her sweet voice full of concern.

"You won't tell anyone?" I ask her even though I know she won't.

"Not if you don't want me to, now please tell me." She pleads.

Slowly I pull my shirt over my head and turn so my back is to her. She grazes her hand over my back then I turn around and see she is silently crying. I pull her into a hug and she cries into my bare chest. Then I realize something, she is the only one who has been close enough to see my scars, behind my tattoo.

"W-Who di-did this t-to you?" she says between sobs.

"My father." I say and stroke her hair trying to comfort her. Eventually her breathing slows and the tears stop.

"Seven minutes is almost up, might wanna put your shirt on," she says with a half hearted smile. I bend to pick up my shirt but feel one of the slashes break open. It bleeds, heavily. Tris runs and locks the door so no one comes in then runs to the attached bathroom and finds some gauze, needle, string and cream.

She takes me and lays me down on my stomach, my pack throbs with pain by now and I am getting dizzier, from my lack of blood. She gets to work quickly and stitched up the wound on my back then rubs some of the cream and it completely numbs my back. Finally she wraps the gauze around me and pulls back.

"There, all better, now please, take it easy." she says and she unlocks the door just as the seven minutes are about up then washes her now bloody hands as I put on my shirt, as my head goes through the hole the door burst open.

All of our friends stand there shocked.

Okay o what did you think?

What do you think will happen next?

I am sorry I don't update as often as I used to, I just get so busy with school and stuff!

I try to write everyday, even if it isn't a full chapter.

Oh and please tell me, are my chapters too short?
