Chapter 16

I am really, really sorry. It's been over a month since I last updated. I just haven't been feeling like writing. So, I'm writing now. It's 11 o'clock so it's going to be really bad and have heaps of mistakes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Christina's POV

I can't lose someone else again. It was hard enough the first two times. The first person who accepted me for who I was.

After 5 hours, everyone was beginning to get skittish. Even though it was 3 in the morning, we were too worried to be tired. Tobias was pacing, still. He hadn't stopped since we got to the hospital. Today's their wedding day.

Zeke and Shauna are sitting and talking. To everyone else that would be normal, but their dauntless, they're meant to be reckless.

Calab's standing, leaning against the wall, rubbing his hands down his face. He hasn't moved since we arrived.

Matthew is over by the vending machine, pounding on it. He'd been doing all through out our visit.

"How can you think of food at a time like this?" I ask Matthew.

"I'm nervous. I'm scared. What else to you expect me to do? Sit around and mope?" I didn't reply. Silence soon returned to the room.

The sound of soft snoring was the only thing keeping me awake. Two more hours had passed and we still hadn't heard any news. Tobias was still pacing but everyone else had bunkered down and we're getting some much needed sleep.

"Tobias," I cautiously said. I didn't want to make him angry. Instead of a reply he sent me a glare that stabbed daggers into my heart. But behind the glare was fear. "You should probably get some sleep. I'll wake you up when we get some news. Tris would have wanted-"

"You don't know what Tris would have wanted. You don't know anything. You thing you have the world figured out and can solve every single problem but you can't Christina. There are just some things you can't fix and this is one of them. Why don't you get some sleep? I'll wake you up when we get some news. Tris would have wanted it." His sudden outburst took me by surprise.

"I know you're hurt and scared but you can't just take it out on everyone else. She was the first person to accept me. My first true friend. How do you reckon I feel? I know what it's like to lose someone you love. It hurts, I'm not going to sugar coat it for you. My best friend killed my first love. You killed my second. Love is great but has a high price that everyone has to pay. This whole thing isn't about you and Tris. It's about all of us." I was angry. How could he think that? After everything I did for him to get over Tris' 'death' 4 years ago, how could he treat me with such disrespect?

Before he could answer, the doctor burst through the door. We both looked at him with anticipation. His face was hard to read but with the skills I had developed from Candor, I could tell he was trying to hide something bad.

"Any news?" Tobias and I both say in unison

By heart sank when he replied, "There's some news. But not all of it is good."

Again, I am really, really sorry about the update. I haven't even been that busy, I just haven't been feeling like writing. It's a really bad, rushed chapter that I can't even be bother to read through but at least it's something.
I want to thank you guys for 5K reads!! That may not seem like a lot for 16 chapters but it means the world to me. I was basically what motivated me to finally write this chapter
Adios
