I don't recognise the boy-man-that stands at the door. Tris clearly seems to know him, or the other way round. I'm not sure. I look at Tris, she looks terrified.

"C-Caleb?" She stutters.

"I need to tell y-you something." He stays still. "In private." He adds.

"W-why?" She stammers.

"Beatrice." She leaves the apartment with him.

"Beatrice." Caleb says, it reminds me of when he used to scold me for not being selfless when I was younger. I get up, with a struggle and leave the apartment with him. I take him into one of the passage ways I remember from a few days after initiation.

"Beatrice. We want to give you an opportunity." He says. He's wearing his blue Erudite suit, and white bow tie.

"What are you talking about?" I sigh.

"Mum and dad are letting us back into Abnegation. You are coming, aren't you?" The thought of going back to mum and dad makes me uneasy, I hold onto the wall behind me for support.

"B-but I-I can't." I say, his face drops.

"Why?"

"I'm happy here." I say, I'm not sure if I mean it though.

"What being brutal to each other?"

"It's different now." I say loudly.

"I'm leaving Erudite. I can't keep up. It's not me." I can't believe him. My brother, he was always Erudite, stacks of books.

"I-I can't leave Dauntless." I all I say then I pull him into a hug. He tenses and then relaxes and puts his arms around me.

"You've put on some pud, Beatrice." I laugh.

"I haven't Caleb." I pull back. He glances at my stomach then his eyes shot up to mine.

"Your pregnant? " He looks shocked. I nod. "Who, Beatrice?" I hesitate.

"It doesn't matter." He sighs.

"Beatrice, I want to know my niece or nephew's dad."

"He was in the room." That's all I giveaway.

"The big one? The one with the blue eyes?" I hesitantly nod. "Beatrice! I'm going to have to tell mum and dad."

"But they'll disown me! I'm only 17!"

"How old is he?"

"19." I cringe as his face drops and his eyes widen.

Tris and the man come back in the room, Tris looks white and he looks at me, fuming.

"You!" He points at me. I feel guilty.

"Caleb!" She grabs his wrist.

"You got my sister pregnant!" The penny drops. Caleb is her brother. I stand up. Tris cringes.

"Caleb." She says, he yanks his wrist away and Tris trips. She saves herself in time, just before actually falling to the ground.

"Goodbye,Beatrice. I'll be back soon." He walks away. Tris is going to cry. I know she is. I run over to her. Her forst tear falls. She collapses in my arms bawling her eyes out. I run my fingers through her hair.

"It's going to be okay." I reassure her. But really I'm not sure.
