Tobias and Tris a new beginning

Chapter 11

"Everyone stop, your dismissed for lunch except the stiffs you two stay" at this point my shirt is soaked with her tears. Amar turned towards us and Tris was having a full blown panic attack at this point, which he seemed to notice and backed off.

"Tris I'm right here okay, look we are in the training room right now your safe" I whispered in her ear, her breathing was still labored but her body was less tense after I talked her through it a bit more. A little while later she calmed down but remained in my arms.

"What did you think you were doing initiate pointing a loaded gun at me your instructor" Amar says to me, I feel Tris body tense I try to pull her closer if that was possible but instead she walks right up to Amar.

"Look douche pants, he was just protecting me okay? So don't get after him it's your fault you touched my shoulder" Tris says squarely to Amar. He slowly reaches out to touch her arm and she turns to leaps into my arms again, burying her face my chest.

"How long" Amar says to me.

"How long what?" I shoot back at him.

"How long were you two abused" I hear Tris gasp and I'm immediately taken aback how does he know this.

"Look I suspected it the way you two show pain in your eyes and also the way you protect her, but also cause you just confirmed it back there. So back to my first question how long were you two abused" Amar says to us at this point Tris was facing him while I had my arm draped across her shoulders.

"Nine years" we both whisper in unison.

"How did you know" Tris asks Amar.

"I just told you" he says quietly to her as if she is a deer that he might scare off. "You know what she meant" I snap at him.

"My mother, my mother was abused by her father her whole life I will always remembered the look in her eyes, it's the same one you two have, I will never forget the pain she went through".

He must see our confused faces because he says gently.

"Look I what I'm trying to say is that I can understand of what you went through so if you want to prove your stranger than your abuser try your best in initiation and every where in life some words that would of benefited my mother" Tris looks up at me and I look at her, we both smile

Amar clears his throat and finishes "I want you two to know that even though I seem like a cruel instructor I am there to help if there's trouble".

"Thank you" I say to him and he gives me a reassuring smile.

"Can you please not say anything thing to the others, we don't want to be seen as weak" Tris says studying Amar's movements.

"I promise I won't tell anyone, mostly because I could get in trouble even having this conversation with you" Amar replies sternly to us.

"You may go to lunch now, oh stiff stay for a minute" I nod as Tris exits the room.
