Divergent High

Chapter 48: Tris

Tobias and I got to my house shortly after discussing I wanted him to stay at my house. We walked in and my brother was the only one home.

"Hey Caleb," I said making him glance up from the book he was reading.

"Hello, who's this?"

"Four, remember I went on a date with him?" I say not sure if I can tell him Tobias' real name.

"Are you two," he gestured toward both of us, " a thing?"

"Yeah, do you know when mom and dad will be home?" I asked quickly changing the subject.

"Any minute now," he said looking back down at the book. Sure enough not too long after the front door opened and my parents walked inside.

"Hi mommy, hi daddy!" I said kissing their cheeks trying to get them to loosen up.

"What do you want?" They asked at the same time. I rolled my eyes, they know me too well.

"You remember Four right?" I ask and they both slowly nod so I continue, "Well his dad is in jail so he needs a place to stay, I was thinking he could stay here?"

My dad looked ready to object. But my mom interrupted.

"Andrew we have plenty of rooms in this huge house, I am sure he can stay in one of them," she said being her selfless self. My dad looked ready to argue, but then he rolled his eyes defeated.

"Fine, but you can't be in each other's rooms at night." He said talking to me and Four.

"Deal!" I said.

"I hope you don't mind me asking, Four, but why is your father in jail?" my mom asked.

"Oh, umm..." Tobias began, "he abused me." he finished quiet but my mother heard it because her eyes grew wide and she wrapped her arms around him in a hug. He winced when her hands hit his back and she immediately withdrew from the hug.

"Sorry!" she said obviously concerned.

"It's fine, really."

Sensing the awkwardness I decided to talk, "I will go show him to his room!" I said grabbing his hand and pulling him up the stairs and into the room next to mine. "Here is your room," I said turning to him. He smiled.

"I love you Tris."

"I love you too Four," I said standing on my tippy toes and planting a light kiss on his lips. "You should probably go get your clothes and stuff."

"Yeah okay," he said smiling. I love his smile. I love my life. I love Tobias Eaton.
