Divergent High

Chapter 14

Tobias PoV

I'm at the hospital and Tris is still asleep. They finally took that tube out of her throat. I know its supposed to help her breathe but every time I saw it, I thought it was trying to steal her air. I freaked out when I saw them put it in. I literally pulled the rube out of her mouth and pulled it close to my body. It took everyone and some doctors and nurses to get me to let go of it. Much less yell at them for trying to kill her.

The doctor came in a few minutes ago and told me she has a fifty fifty chance of surviving. I might have thrown a chair at him, but I don't care. That's such a small line and if it leans the wrong way just an inch, I will kill them.

Peter. Molly. Eric. Drew.

Those monsters that made my Tris have  fifty fifty chance of living. I need to find them. No matter what.

I decide I need to go get some fresh air but I don't want to leave. She's every part of me now. Somewhere, I read that a specific type of people disliked God. I saw a picture of a painting that said "Fear God Alone." I kind of liked it.

It reminds me that God controls everything and that he makes us go through torturous. People tell me that its a chance to prove to Him that you are loyal to him.

I finally just open up a window. It suddenly got cold outside so I only leave it open a crack. I think about what has happened so far between me and Tris.

Tris PoV

Its so bright where ever I am. Its also kind of cold. I'm in a hospital bed. The white sheets under me are a little red. Why the heck am I in the hospital with bloody sheets.

Then everything hits me. Me walking down the hall. Peter and Eric coming towards me. I try to run away. Molly and Drew came up behind me. I was cornered. I was punched by Peter and Eric while being restrained by Molly and Drew.

I was punched in the face and the gut. Every part of my body hurts though. I was kick repeatedly when my gut couldn't take anymore. I started coughing up blood and I had cuts on my arms and legs.

They stopped kicking. Uriah, Marlene, Will and Shauna are standing in front of me. Trying to protect my body. Then everything goes black.

I feel like I'm dreaming because I can see and heat everything around me but I don't, or can't, respond.

I was lifted up onto a gurney. I saw Tobias asking one of the people from the ambulance something and then I hear people talking. Very worried voices and swift motions are all around me. I can faintly hear the words blood loss, unconscious, may not make it, brain damage and gashes.

I repeatedly come in and out of blurriness. Then I see Tobias and the others come in. They start crying but Tobias tries to hold back the tears. He is trying to be strong for me but eventually he breaks down. When everyone realized what was happening with him, they stood quietly and left. Left Tobias here, uncomforted by anyone. The only thing making him hold on just one little bit before he goes insane is the fact I could still make it through this.

I have to be strong for him. I try to make a sound or a gesture but just trying takes all of the energy away from me. I guess my eyes look like they are closed because he looks up at me with puffy, red eyes and gives me a depressed look.

He takes my hand and I use the left of my energy to squeeze his hand. I need to reassure him that I'm not died. Its a quick squeeze but he feels it. He looks us at me with a wanting look. He wants me to say something. Anything. I can't though.

I feel sleep pulling me down one more time and I know I might not some out of it this time. I mutter "I love you Tobias. Forever and ever. Don't forget me."

That's all I can say with the rest of my energy but I know he understands. My eyelids drift the rest of the way down and I fall asleep. Not a dreadful dream with fears and horrors but a dream with stormy blue eyes staring at me. I will never leave you. I think to myself. I know no one can hear me but I don't care. As long as Tobias hears me, I will be safe and sound. In his embrace, with strong arms folding around me.
