Divergent:A New Life (#Wattys2016)

Chapter[18]

Tris

Tobias and I walked back and found Anne and Malory with their parents again and started chatting for a while before leaving them to go walk around.

"Caleb? What are you doing here?" I asked my brother when I spotted him. "Well I came to visit you. What else?" He said, shrugging. I gave him half a hug due to me carrying Jordan in my arms.

"Who's this?" He asked. "And aren't you like her instuctor if I remember correctly?" I looked at Tobias and turned back to look at Caleb who was eyeing Tobias.

"Caleb, meet your niece and nephew and my husband." I told him. His mouth dropped open. "Aren't you a little too old for my sister?" He asked, eyeing Tobias again. Poor husband of mine had to deal with my parents and brother in one day.

"Age doesn't matter Caleb." I said as I grabbed Carter from Tobias's arms before he fell down from reaching out for me to carry him and passing Jordan to Carter.

"Um... Yes it does, Beatrice..." He said. "Don't bother. I love him. You're not gonna be able to change my mind." I panned out. He sighed and nodded his head.

"Mama?" Carter asked. "Who is that?" "This is your Uncle Caleb! He's your Mama's big brother!" I told them. "Hi Uncle Caleb!" They said in unison.

"I'm Carter!" "And I'm Jordan!" They chirped. "Hi there! How old are you guys?" Caleb asked. "We're four!" They said, shwoing four fingers to him. I looked at Tobias and we both burst out laughing at the joke we both understood.

I felt someone tap on my shoulder and turned around. "Oh! Hi! You are...?" I asked. "Oh! Hi, I'm Elayna, Jack's sister! I heard that you are his instructor?" She asked. "Actually we both are." I told her, pointing to me and Tobias.

"Jack's sister?" I asked and she nodded her head. "Elayna?" Caleb suddenly called. "Caleb? What are you doing here?"

"Visiting. What about you?"

"Visiting too. My brother is an initiate here."

"Beatrice? You know her brother?"

"Oh yeah. You have one hell of a brother all right. Kidnapped me with the help of a Dauntless leader who hates me and would love to kill me."

"HE WHAT?!" She screamed. "Oh I'm so sorry! He's in big trouble now..." I chuckled.

"So how do you know each other?" I asked them.

"Um... Beatrice? Meet my girlfriend, Elayna. Elayna, this is my sister Beatrice." He introduced us. "Tris." I corrected him. "And she's your girlfriend?" I asked and he nodded his head.

"Your his sister?" Elayna asked and I nodded my head. "Oh, that boy is really in trouble now..." I heard her mutter. I laughed and shook my head. "He couldn't even keep me in for more than a day or two! I literally escaped the moment I woke up! He forgot that I'm older and the fact that I'm teaching him everything he knows." I told her.

"Why'd he kidnap you though?" Elayna asked. "Oh you're gonna love this story..." I told them. "He has a crush on me. Made it crystal clear the moment he started flirting with me the first time he saw me and while trying to kiss me." They gasped.

"I'm so so sorry! I raised him better than this! I can't believe that he would do that!"

"It's alright. But there are consequences to all his actions. Step out of line again and he will live a factionless life." I told her, emphasizing on the word 'will'.

"Hey sis." Jack suddenly popped up. "Six." He greeted and I nodded my head. "Four." Tobias nodded his head too.

"Six?" Caleb asked. "Yeah that's what the initiates call me." I told him.

"Why didn't you tell me you were coming today anyways?" I asked him. "I'm your brother Beatrice. I don't need a reason to come visit you do I?" He said and patted my head. I grabbed his wrist, holding it above my head. "Do that again and I will break your arm." I threatened. I saw him gulp and let go of his arm.

"Anyways, I'm older than you." "By 11 months." I retorted. "Still older!" He said.

I sighed. "Does it really matter?" I asked him and he nodded his head. "Yes it does!"

"Whatever."
