Born to be Brave {Divergent High}

Chapter 18

I stand in the middle of my living room, looking at the door. Tobias stands up and tries to put his arm around me, but I push him away, “Not now, please.” He nods and backs away. I shake my head, “I'm so stupid, it's all my fault,” I say fighting back tears.

“It's not all your fault! Stop blaming yourself for everything! In our relationship I was the problem, the same goes here! I was the one who came here to see you,” the he raises his voice, “Just stop blaming yourself for everything!”

“I'm the idiot who kissed you Tobias!”

“You're not an idiot!”

“Can't you agree with me for once?!”

“It's hard to agree with you when you're stubborn!”

“Tobias! Just stop!”

“Tris, I'm sorry,” he says softly.

“Please, I need to find out about Al,” I say look away from him.

I run upstairs and I throw on one of Tobias's shirts I never got rid of, then I pull on a pair of skinny jeans. I throe on my band and I walk downstairs.

“I see you still haven't gotten rod of all my stuff,” he says with a smirk. I blush, “We need to find Al.” We walk out to his car and we both hop in. We drive to Al's house, but we see the door's locked. We walk around the one-story house, to see a window that a curtain isn't shut. When I look into the room, I see a limp body hanging from the ceiling. Al hanged himself. A high pitched scream escaped my throat as son as I look back at Tobias. I run up to him and I start crying into his chest.

“It's all my fault!”

“He took the coward way out, He didn't have to kill himself over this,” he says while running his fingers through my hair.

“We should call someone about this, so his parents can know,” I mange to get out.

Tobias nods and whips out his phone.

People arrive about 30 minutes later, along with my friends. Uriah, Will, all of them are here. How could I be so stupid to kiss Tobias and let Al die?
