Divergent High

Chapter 9

Tris POV

I run into the girls bathroom where I know there'll be no one. I run in and start crying hard. Christina comes in and comforts me.

"It's ok Tris. You know who Lauren is right?" She asks

"N-no." I say

"Oh. Well she's his ex. She's out of the picture completely you understand that right?" She says

"Then what was that Christina explain that to me." I snap.

"She's jealous of you. She always has been. She knew that Four liked you and she was jealous. And she's going to do stuff like this, she's going to make these things up, but you have to trust Four. Do it for me?" She says in a soothing voice.

"Ok." I clear my voice and take a deep breathe. "I just don't want to be hurt." I sigh

"I know. But I won't let that happen. And hey, I know what will make you feel better!"

"What?"

"Shopping!" She exclaims with the biggest smile on her face ever!

I groan.

"Oh come on Tris. You still need an outfit for your date on Friday!" She cheers.

"My what?" I asked shocked

"Your date with Four, DUH. I'm still making you go Tris." She says

I groan again.

She chuckles and suddenly I feel better.

We bump into Four in the hall, he was panicking. I could tell.

"Tris!" He says running toward me. He opens his arms and out of instinct.
I run to him and hug him. I think that surprised him. But I don't care.

"It's ok Four. I'm willing to trust you." I say into his chest.

He sighs with relief and says

"I'm so sorry about her. She's crazy. Just promise me one thing."

I look up at him.

"Don't trust her. Promise?"

"Promise." I say with a smile.

I hear Christina say 'aww' but I ignore it, and just stand there in Fours arms. This is safety to me. I've never felt safer.
