Divergent High

Chapter 16

"Tris?"
I hear a voice, but no face to place the voice in.
"Tris, are you awake? Open your eyes!"
I snap my eyes open, to see a worried Tobias. When he sees my eyes open, he plants a small kiss on my lips. I kiss him back, but very softly, due to the facts that I cannot move.

"What happened to me?" I whisper,
"I don't know." He says, "that's what you have to tell me."
I attempt to sit up, only to fall back on my back, pain shooting through me. Tobias tucks me on the blanket and grabs my hand. "Rest."

I pout. "But I don't wanna rest, how long was I out by the way?"
His face goes into thinking mode. "I think for about two hours. You were starting to scare me. I found you in the schools supply closet blood to the core."

I squeeze his hand as I notice his eyes getting glassier at the thought of it.
"Don't worry, I'm okay. I'm here Tobias."
He shakes his head. "You don't understand. I thought I lost you. You lost a lot of blood from what ever even happened in the closet. I thought you might-" 'die?' I thought. "Be in a serious state of condition." Is what he finished with.

"Tobias.... Please kiss me." I say, my voice regaining strength. He leans over and kisses me softly on the lips. His kiss's are like fire works inside of me that make me feel good. He pulls away, and I smile.

"Do you want to sleep now?" He asks, and I nod. I close my eyes and fall asleep to Tobias humming a time of a nursery rhyme.

*Tobias POV*
Tris slept peacefully on my lap, myself feeling each breathe she took. I played with her hair for awhile, admiring her beauty, until I drifted off myself.

Caleb's Prov:
I walk to the front door of my house, feeling good inside. My visit up state was just what I needed to clear my mind. When I open the door, the room is dark with the tv playing credits to a movie. I see two figures laying on the couch.

"Beatrice?" I speak up. A head pops up and flys in my direction. When I turn on the light, I see Four starring back at me.

"Caleb! You're home!" He speaks up. I throw my stuff into a chair. "What have you been doing home alone with my little sister?"

By now Tris was all ready sat up and combing out her hair with her fingers. "First of all." She starts out, "I am only a year younger. Second of all, we were just watching a movie. Nothing else. You act like I am going to slut it up every time you leave the house."

I feel my cheeks getting warmer. "That's what I was told to do by our parents, Tris. To protect you no matter what. If I can't do that, they will hate us both."

Tris looks down at her hands when I mention our parents, and I know why. I was all ready told about their death on my way back. I was upset at first, but I realized that being upset wasn't going to bring them back to life, but make everyone else's lives around me worse.

"Tris I'm-"
She runs upstairs, leaving a trail of tears behind her. Four stands up of the couch. "Do you want to talk to her or should I?"

I think for a moment. "I'll go up there. We have a bond that is easy to be fixed." I give him a sly smile, and he nods slowly.

I walk towards the stairs. What would I say to someone who's parents have just been killed?
