HEY GUYS! I felt like I should just get to Peter telling Tris because I didn't what to drag it out!
Guest: Yes in the book Peter already new Christina but in my story he's from Erudite! I just thought maybe that would spice up the story a bit and you will get why I did that ;)
THISISMYNAME: I do ship Petris AND Fourtris, so please don't say you hate my story just because of my opinion. Thanks!
Well besides that, here's Ch. 4! ~Dedicated to IHeartUCato~
I don't own Divergent.. I wish!
I still can't believe it, I told Tris that I liked her last night! I mean seriously could it get any better? Well yes, because she likes me back! But what will she think of me when I tell her who I really am. . .Where I come from. . . And what I'm doing behind her back. . .
I can't let Molly and Drew know that we are together. Well really I can't let anyone know. I mean what will they say, what will they think about me. They will think that I'm weak and stupid for being with a small girl from Abnegation. If only they saw Tris the way that I did. They would know she was not weak and that she has courage unlike anyone else that pity's her. I open the doors into the training room, mad at myself with all of the questions that move around inside my head.
As usual everyone's eyes – including Tris' – are on me when I walk threw the doors. I put on my signature smirk and walk over between Molly and Peter. All of our names are on the board. We are paired up with someone. I don't even look at whom I'm paired up with because I know it will be an easy win. My eyes just search the board for Tris's name but wait. . . Tris isn't paired up with someone. I wonder why. She won't fight today, which means she won't get hurt, but does that mean that she will get paired up with someone who is better ranked tomorrow?
"Since there are an odd number of you, one of you won't be fighting today," Four says. His eyes skirt over to Tris but he tries to hide it. Now I get why she isn't fighting today, it's because he made the pairing and doesn't want her to get hurt. If only he knew how strong she can really be. I mean seriously, first jumper doesn't mean anything to you! Christina and Tris are talking but I don't what about, they are talking to quietly.
I finally realize that they are talking about us; Drew, Molly and I. We are sitting across to room form one another. But they keep glancing over to us. Did Tris tell Christina about us? No she couldn't have she promised me. But this could all be a trick for Tris. Maybe she doesn't even like me at all and she is trying to use it on me. I then snap back out of my daze. Turns out I was staring at them the whole time. Christina does a sarcastic laugh then waves over at me. I give her a smug look then start to talk to Drew and Molly again.
Al and Will's fight was nothing special. Obviously Al won but he didn't look to good about it. Be a man, Al. Seriously take pride in your victory, isn't that what Dauntless is about?! Molly and Christina are fighting now. Hopefully that's what Tris and her were talking about, and not me. Christina's on the floor and Molly won the fight. Nice job Molly, I know she's big but that was really her only advantage.
"Stop! Stop. . . I'm. . . I'm done." Is all Christina is able to croak out. She has blood trickling down the side of her mouth. But now Eric is talking to Christina, she didn't just lose the fight, she's good as dead now. Molly smiles in victory and steps back.
"I'm sorry what did you say? You're done?" Eric doesn't scream, that means he's just getting started. Christina pushes herself up to her knees. "Get up," he says. He grabs Christina's arm and yanks her to her feet, and drags her out the door. "Follow me!" Is all he says to the rest of us. And we do.
We now stand near the railing of the chasm. It's mid-afternoon and the Pit is almost empty but there is still enough people to fill it's space with voices. What does Eric have going on in his sadistic mind? He can't possibly make Christina kill herself. . . Can he?
Eric shoves Christina towards the railing. "Climb over it," he says. "What?" She says it with pure confusion. Does she really expect him to just say he's kidding and leave her be. "Climb over the railing," he says again. But slower that time, like he's getting aggravated. "If you can hang over the railing for five minutes, I will forget everything that happened today and let you continue initiation." He narrows his eyes. "Fine," she says, her voice shaking.
Well that was 5 minutes of my life I'll never get back. I wish she just would've fallen and gotten it over with. But no, Al and even Tris were cheering her on. Then when the five minutes where up they both helped her over the railing. They all catch their breath, and with a snarl under his breath, Eric dismisses us for the rest of the day.
I couldn't talk to Tris all day because she was off with her friends at the infirmary talking to Will. I sleep till dinner but when I see Tris at dinner she glares at me then looks away. What happened? Well, I guess I'll just see her tomorrow.
That night I dream that it was Tris was the one that was hanging over the railing and that she made me admit that I loved her in front of everyone, that was the only way to save her. Of course I did it, but everyone after that called me a coward and weak and an idiot.
I wake sitting up trying to stifle a sob. Only a couple other initiates are up so no one saw what happened to me. I get up and got to the bathroom, when I came back I put my bed together and whistled to myself as I usually do in the morning. But when I turn around, I notice something I didn't when I woke up. Tris is gone, probably in the bathroom. But on her pillow, bed and bedframe, in red spray paint is the word Stiff. Is she trying to tell everyone that she is embracing her old faction? No she isn't that weak or stupid. That means that when we where both in the bathroom someone did this to her. And I know whom. I give one quick glance to Tris – who is already staring at me with disbelief – before I storm out of the dormitory and into the dining hall. "Nice decorations," I whisper to myself. But I think Tris heard me. God, I must sound like an idiot to her right now!
"You two did this didn't you?" I spit out at Molly and Drew as I sit down across the table from them.
"Do what?" They say at the same time, trying to manage from laughing.
"You think it's funny do ya?" They then frown and narrow their eyes at me.
"What's gotten into you? We thought you would laugh at out little scam." They now look at me with disbelief. They're right though. I can't let them see that it effects me. Which it really does. Instead I smirk.
"Well, you could've at least let me have some fun on the action!" That's all I'll say for now. At this Tris walks in to the dinning hall. I won't talk to her till tonight. Molly and Drew laugh at my joke then we just continue eating.
When I walk into the training my heart drops to my stomach. But my stomach is already at my feet. I have to fight Tris today! What am I going to do?! I slowly walk over to where Molly and Drew are already sitting. My eyes flutter over to Tris and she looks like she's about to throw up. She is also talking to Christina who is eyeing me with disgust. Well, I could just leave. Not fight her at all. But that would show I'm a coward. I can't let people see me that way. Maybe after a few hits Tris will just fall to the ground and pretend to be unconscious. I hope.
The first couple fights are nothing special, as usual. Molly and Edward fight but Edward beats her in not time. I kind of despise her. She barely even tries! Four circles Edwards name and now it is our turn. I can't let her win but I'm going to help her loss, without hurting her, as best as I can.
We step onto the mat and I smile at her but for only a second. Focus Peter. Help Tris! Encourage her. Make her mad. "You okay there, Stiff?" not good enough. "You look like you're about to cry. I might go easy on you if you cry." C'mon Tris you can do it. Let it get to you. We need to show them a good fight. "Come on, Stiff," I say again. "Just one little tear. Maybe some begging." At this she tries to kick my side but I just grab her foot and push her down to the ground. C'mon Tris is that the best you got? "Stop playing with her," Eric snaps. "I don't have all day." I lift my right arm and swing to punch her in the jaw. When my fist collides with the side of her face I realize she didn't even duck. I then kick her in the stomach but again she doesn't even try to defend it! Maybe she's just waiting for a few more punches then is going to fall to the ground and pretend to be unconscious. Smart.
She wobbles a few feet away from me then falls to the ground unstable. I run to her but by the time I'm there she is already up back on her feet. Instead of kicking her again, I just grab her hair and punch her in the nose. Shit. Her nose is bleeding. As I take this in she tries to get away from me. Oh so you wanna play games do ya? I punch her in the ribs. Hopefully she gets the point. Even though she is my girlfriend I am not going to let her win this fight.
I shove her off me. I've been holding her for to long. She hits the ground harder than I meant for her too. She gets up pretty fast so she mustn't of fell that hard. She looks like she's drunk. Why do I have to do this? Why did I do this? I'm this close to just leaving and running out the door. But she looks like she's almost done, one more punch and she will be done. I hope.
I punch her side and she falls. Good Tris, stay down! She does the complete opposite. She punches me in the side. It didn't really hurt that much but my arm just slaps her across the face, when I throw my hands out. I didn't think it was that hard, but I also didn't mean to do it either. Tris is way stronger than I thought she was.. Well, way to go Tris! I let out a small laugh thinking about it but force it away. But seriously I don't want you to get really hurt so stop trying to show your vulnerability! I'm becoming an animal who is forces to prey on the weak. Is this what dauntless does to you? Well I don't like it. At all.
She falls. I kick her. She screams. I kick her again.
Four runs into the room and screams, over her screaming, "STOP!" I haven't even noticed he left. Doesn't he even care about her at all? He probably doesn't, just like every other heartless person in dauntless. At this he picks he up and leaves the training room. All I can do is stare at the floor.
This place is changing me.. At first I thought it was for the better, I liked it but know.. It's for the worst, and I need to get out of here.. For good.
HOPE YOU LIKED IT! SHOULD I HAVE PETER GO SEE TRIS IN THE HOSPITAL FOR A PART OF THE NEXT CH. OR NO? AND SORRY IT'S SO LONG! BUT I WANTED TO GET IN AS MUCH DETAIL AS I COULD :* LUV YOU ALL!
