Chapter Six-You Jerk!

I wake up to someone clicking their fingers in front of my face.

"Uriah stop, she's awake." A deep voice says. My vision is blurry and I'm lying down on white sheets. I have a breathing mask on and when I go to remove it, strong hands stop me.

"Calm it Little Red, you need that." My vision clears to Four and Uriah sitting by the hospital bed I'm in.

"What happened?" I ask, my throat dry from the pure oxygen I'm breathing.

"Do you remember me picking you up?" I nod. "You fainted as I carried you to the nurse so Zeke called an Ambulance and the lady from the office, Tori rode with you and me and Uriah drove up here on the motorbike. The doctor is coming to see you in minute." Four says, frowning.

"Cheer up Four, I'm alive aren't I?"
"Barely." He says with an even larger frown.

"He's over exaggerating." Uriah says as the Doctor walks in.

"Hello Tally, it seems you had an extremely rare allergic reaction to a plant in the dye. It's peculiar. I've only seen it once before when... Well when Tris Prior came in after the attack, her arm was touching one of the plants when she fainted in the alley, she had the exact same reaction as you." He stops speaking and looks down.

"Take her home Four, and stay with her, she could collapse any second but there's no point keeping her here, there's nothing more we can do."

"Thanks Uncle."

"Your welcome Four. Is it okay if I have the kids the weekend after next instead, I've got to do a major surgery tonight." Four nods and his uncle/the doctor leaves. Uriah removes the oxygen mask from my face and wraps an arm round under my arm. Helping me up from the bed.

"Four, I've got to go, take the red head." Uriah lets go of me and runs off down the hospital corridors for some random reason, Four picks me up like he did before.

"I can walk Four." I whisper into his neck, I expect him to let go, instead his grip tightens.

"I'm not letting go of you Tally." He says softly, I settle into his embrace as we reach his motorbike, placing me carefully on the back.

I unlock my front door and almost fall through it. I'm exhausted. Four grabs me round the waist.

"Woah Tally, slow down, you've just got out the hospital." He supports me to the sofa, kicking the door closed behind us. I hate being helpless, and god knows that when I go back to the CIA for my monthly test Theo and Miles will be their to take the piss out of me. Four lifts my legs and sits under them.

"How you feeling?" He asks.

"Honestly?" I say back to him, he makes that hmmm sound.

"I want a parent to be fussing over me and to care about what happened." Four glares at me.

"I'm fussing over you and I care about what happened, isn't that enough?" He gets up, throwing my legs off him.

"You'd understand if I could tell you." I say, getting up as well and heading towards the stairs.

"Tally, wait." I don't listen, making Four angry, he grabs my braced wrist and pushes me against the wall. His eyes have become an midnight colour, I almost certain he's going to hit me. But he doesn't. His lips greet mine softly, his tongue grazes my lip but I'm too shocked to do the same back. Suddenly he pulls back, letting go of me completely, stepping back my mouth hangs open in shock, red marks on my hands where he held me.

"Oh my god Tally, I'm sorry." He looks worried, scared even. He grabs his jacket off the sofa and runs from the house, slamming the door behind him I slide to the ground and sob.

*time skip brought to you by the TARDIS*

"Tris, wake up honey." I open my eyes to see Tori above me. "I thought Four was going to stay with you?" She says, helping me up.

"Yeah, he kissed me. Then ran out." I say.

"Did my little Trissy have her first kiss." I turn bright red and whack her softly.

"Not funny, I'm already gonna have Theo and Miles on my back about the henna and now this. They totally forget I'm still a teenager."

"I'll have a chat with them, remind them that your senior and so on. Anyway, get to bed, I'm taking you shopping tomorrow since you can't go to the sleepover."

"Thanks Tori." She ruffles my hair.

"Go take that wig off." I smile and head upstairs, dumping my support boot and wrist brace by the door. I pull my wig off along with the hair net and leave that on my dresser, letting my long blonde hair fall to the edge of my ribs. I change into a teal tank top and black soft shorts and head downstairs to grab my school back which Four must have brought home for me.

"You look so beautiful with your blonde hair." Tori says, making me smile.

"I just wish I could tell them who I am."

"Tris, if one day soon you have to tell them, then you must." I nod and run upstairs, falling onto my bed and into sleep.
