Chapter 7

We finally make it to the marsh and continue walking along it. It's funny how something that was once so beautiful, could be destroyed so easily with time. I can almost imagine what the now empty marsh would have looked like with water in it. When we're about halfway through Tobias stops me and says, " You were right you know," He says. I give him a confused look, so he just continues. " I should do what's right for me, I only have one choice right?".I find myself grinning ear to ear and Tobias seems to notice because he smiles.

I nod and say " Exactly, that's all I wanted to hear"

Tobias smiles, and then we continue walking down. He then glances at his watch and has a worried and scared expression on his face. He looks over at me and I'm just confused. I look and it's 8:55.

"Oh crap," I say, and then look at Tobias. It's a 20-minute walk back to our house, and even if we run we won't make it in time. We try anyway. "Run" I say to Tobias and we run for the Abnegation sector of the city, hoping that whatever pain comes, it's bearable.
