For The Better

Chapter 25

Tris' POV

I walk down the hallway of Dauntless.

Tobias left me alone so he could be with his girlfriend.

I see a girl run down the hallway past me and a shirtless boy yelling at her.

I shrug and walk to the room Tobias told me to go to for the moment.

I open the door and see a bed, a kitchen, and a bathroom connected to a living area.

Small but comforting.

I look up and see

'FEAR GOD ALONE' Paint on the wall.

I laugh to myself.

Who put that there?

I walk over to the bathroom and look in the mirror.

I lift my shirt some and see the scar on my stomach.

Sighing, I walk out of the bathroom and look at the bed.

It has a blue quilt on it.

I smile a little and pick it up while sitting on the bed

I know this blanket.

I lay back and take a deep breath.

Tobias.

Shailene's Pov

I run in the house and see Dad and Hayley making out right there.

I cough

Nope

I walk in my room and flop on my bed.

I swear sometimes they look like they might eat each others face off

I start to think about Lucas.

How sey he was without a shirt.

How warm he was when he held me.

How I wish I didn't leave so soon.

How I want to know what his lips feel like on mine.

Oh Gawd

I'm In love with my best friend.

Tobias' Pov

I walk in the door and see Hayley at the kitchen table.

I smile and come up behind her and put my hands over her eyes.

"Guess who?"

I hear her laugh

"Hmmm… I dunno I give up."

She gets up and hugs me and I hug her back after a while she pulls back a little and kisses me

Of course I kiss back.

She rests her hands on my chest and I take that as my cue to wrap my arms around her waist.

She slides her hands to my neck and my hands slide to her hips.

She presses herself closer and I hear the front door open.

I know it's Shai but I'm too busy

She coughs but we keep going.

I wait till she's in her room and the door closes before I pick Hayley up and she wraps her legs around my waist.

I carry her to our room and she presses her hips into mine.

I groan and close the door with my foot laying her on the bed.

I hover over her and slide my hands under her shirt.

Shailene's Pov

I hear groans and I gag

Ew!

I text Lucas about what i'm hearing and he laughs at my misery.

Great.

I change out of my clothes and decide to get away from the sex going on the other room.

I walk out the house leaving at note for Dad telling him I'm out with friends.

So not happening.

I walk to the fear landscapes pulling out the box with the needles.

I take one out and wince as it pierces my skin.

I take a deep breath and walk in the room.

The door shuts and I wait.

Then I see him.
