*Tris PoV*

So far Uriah's gotten over his fear of PDA, (he wasn't scared of it, he didn't like it, so he says.) Hazel and him are a couple, and I finally get my revenge from "FourTris"! Chrill! I don't even think I am the same girl who I was when I was in Abnegation. It brings pain to my stomach when I think about Abnegation, especially my parents. Would they appreciate me having tattoos, or a boyfriend, or a nickname? Would they call me "Tris" or Beatrice? I roll my eyes, Beatrice of course. Plus if I told them if it represents them, and Caleb... what about Caleb? I haven't been particularly nice to him. He chose Erudite, and I always thought he would be Abnegation. "Bea-, I mean, Tris?" I turn my head to see Tobias, trying to catch my attention. "What? T-Four?" I nearly said his real name!? "What name starts with T?" Everyone tries to figure out his real name. "Ok! It's..." Tobias says. "Tim Eastmen," what a fake name. "Ok, Tim, C or D?" Tobias gives a smile, (which means dare, but it is soooooooo cute.) "I dare you to... see if the Faction Leaders are here yet." I forgot that today all the Faction Leaders (with a plus one) will be coming. Marcus will be coming with... my dad. I haven't seen him since we last ate breakfast together, before Caleb and I betrayed them, and chose different factions. Faction before Blood, right? "Fine, I'll go, with only one witness."
"I'll witness!" I call out, so I can see my dad, and Marcus. I have an internal grudge against him, for beating Tobias. Tobias and I leave. We walk, away from our friends, and I ask if he's ok. "I'm ok, but I hate Zeke for this." Tobias hasn't seen his dad since he was 16, because I never saw Marcus visit.

"Beatrice?" I turn to face my father, who is here to visit Eric and Max. "Dad," I pull him into an embrace, and when we stop, we both look away, embarrassed. "Hello Beatrice, how is initiation going?" He tries to cloak his anger, it is working well, if I did not know him. His voice is quiet, and that is never good. "Saw Jeanine Matthews?" I ask him and his eyes turn cold. He has the same colour eyes I do, but the eye shape is more like Caleb's. "You can never guess who she was with." I shake my head, please don't let it be Caleb, please. "Caleb," he spits, and I try calm him down. We talk for a minute before he gives me a handshake, and says "I hope we meet in the future, Beatrice."
"Tris?" Christina calls, and I bid farewell to my father. "Why were shaking hands with the leader of Abnegation?" She thinks he's Marcus. "That's my father, Andrew Prior, Marcus is probably somewhere..." with Four. "Believe me or not, but I think I found out Four's real name!" I feel worried, and fake a confused face. "Tobias Eaton," she hisses, with delight. She drags me to see Tobias, trying to get away from Marcus.

*Four's PoV*

I can't believe I talked to Marcus, again. I thought I was safe in Dauntless! I sigh, and I walk towards Beatrice and Christina. "Let's go back to Zeke's," I say, and Tris tries to grab my attention. "Chris, I will see you later," Tris says. I say goodbye to her, too. "Four, be careful around Chris, she thinks she's figured out your real name. She's ex-Candor, she can tell when you are lying."
"Why didn't you tell her I'm 'Tim Eastman'?" I ask her, and she raises her eyebrows, she won't believe it anymore. "Bye, Four." She walks to her room, and I watch her walk away.
