Chapter 27: Shuttup.

Tris is giddy the morning after she and Tobias kissed. (Who wouldn't be?? <3 ) Except Tobias isn't paying attention to her at all, and then they get told they're going into one of the instructors simulations and when Christina hopes it's Four's, Tris gets really defensive and it's kinda suspicious but then again he's not giving any indication that something happened between them. Keeping it platonic around other people is a good idea but it's gotta feel like a smack to the face to Tris.

Speaking of smack to the face... Tris flips out when she goes through the simulation because it's took her back to the assault and she practically breaks down but then Four comes over and pretty much yells at her because he knows that if he pushes her she won't break and it's better for her if she doesn't break down in front of everybody, but she's pissed that he yelled and rightly so, so she smacks him.

I hear footsteps. Tobias marches toward me and wrenches me to my feet. 
"What the hell was that, Stiff?"
"I..." My breath comes in a hiccup. "I didn't--"
"Get yourself together! This is pathetic."
Something within me snaps. My tears stop. Heat races through my body, driving the weakness out of me, and I smack him so hard my knuckles burn with the impact.  

Notice that? He said earlier that he loved that when he pushed, she didn't break, she got more alive. She needed him to push her right then, to keep her together. She didn't know, but he probably saved her again there.
