    “Whoa there, Tobias," says the man to my left. "Weren't you raised a Stiff? I thought the most you people did was... graze hands or something."
    "Then how do you explain all the Abnegation children?" Tobias raises his eyebrows.
    "They are brought into being by sheer force of will," the woman on the arm of the chair interjects. "Didn't you know that, Tobias?"
    "No, I wasn't aware." He grins. "My apologies.”

    “I regret..." Tobias tilts his head, and sighs. "I regret my choice."
    "What Choice?"
    "Dauntless," he says. "I was born Abnegation. I was planning on leaving Dauntless, and becoming factionless. But I met her, and... I felt like maybe I could make something more of my decision."

    Her.

    “What did you do?â€� I mumble. He is just a few feet away from me now, but not close enough to hear me. As he passes me he stretches out his hand. He wraps it around my palm and squeezes. Squeezes, then lets go. His eyes are bloodshot; he is pale. “What did you do?â€� This time the question tears from my throat like a growl. I throw myself toward him, struggling against Peter’s grip, though his hands chafe. “What did you do?â€� I scream. “You die, I die tooâ€� Tobias looks over his shoulder at me. “I asked you not to do this. You made your decision. These are the repercussions.”

    “I'll be your family now," he says.
    "I love you," I say. (....)
    He stares at me. I wait with my hands clutching his arms for stability as he considers his response.
    He frowns at me. "Say it again."
    "Tobias," I say, "I love you.”
    Veronica Roth, Insurgent

    “Tris," Tobias says, crouching next to me. His face is pale, almost yellow.
    There is too much I want to say. The first thing that comes out is, "Beatrice."
    He laughs weakly.
    "Beatrice," he amends, and touches his lips to mine. I curl my fingers into his shirt.”
    Veronica Roth, Insurgent

    Veronica Roth
    “If we stay together, I'll have to forgive you over and over again, and if you're still in this, you'll have to forgive me over and over again too. So forgiveness isn't the point. What I really should have been trying to figure out is whether we were still good for each other or not”

    It is the best moment of my life.”
    Veronica Roth, Divergent

    Veronica Roth
    “I pout my lower lip for a second, but then I grin as the pieces come together.
    "That's why you like me!" I exclaim. "Because you're not very nice either! It makes so much more sense now.”
    Veronica Roth, Insurgent

    “You nearly died today,' he says. 'I almost shot you. Why didn't you shoot me, Tris?'
    'I couldn't do that,' I say. 'It would have been like shooting myself.'
    He looks pained and leans closer to me, so his lips brush mine when he speaks.”

    “Okay. Then...I can talk. Ask me something."
    "Okay." He laughs shakily in my ear. "Why is your heart racing Tris?"
    I cringe and say, "Well, I...I barely know you. I barely know you and I'm crammed up against you in a box, Four, what do you think?"...
    "Maybe you were cut out for Candor," he says, "because you're a terrible liar.”
    Veronica Roth, Divergent

    Veronica Roth
    “Yeah, well," I say, "I left Abnegation because I wasn't selfless enough, no matter how hard I tried to be."
    "That's not entirely true." He smiles at me. "That girl who let someone throw knives at her to spare a friend, who hit my dad with a belt to protect me-that selfless girl, that's not you?"...
    "You've been paying close attention, haven't you?"
    "I like to observe people/"
    "Maybe you were cut out for Candor, Four, because you're a terrible liar.”
    Veronica Roth, Divergent

    Veronica Roth
    “Okay, okay.â€� I set my hand on top of his and guide it to my chest, so it’s right over my heart. “Feel my heartbeat. Can you feel it?â€�

    â€Ô¨±ð²õ.â€�

    “Feel how steady it is?�

    “It’s fast.�

    “Yes, well, that has nothing to do with the box.� I wince as soon as I’m done
    speaking. I just admitted to something. Hopefully he doesn’t realize that.”
    Veronica Roth, Divergent

    “He turns toward me. I want to touch him, but I’m afraid of his bareness; afraid that he will make me bare too.
    ‘Is this scaring you, Tris?�
    ‘No,� I croak. I clear my throat. ‘Not really. I’m only…afraid of what I want.�
    ‘What do you want?� Then his face tightens. ‘Me?�
    Slowly I nod.”
    Veronica Roth, Divergent

    “There's a reason why she left them, Lauren," he says. His voice is deep, and it rumbles. "What's your name?"

    "Um..." I don't know why I hesitate. But "Beatrice" just doesn't sound right anymore.

    "Think about it," he says, a faint smile curling his lips. " You don't get to pick again."

    A new place, a new name. I can be remade here.

    "Tris," I say firmly.”
    Veronica Roth, Divergent

    Veronica Roth
    “Simulation Tobias kisses my neck.

    I try to think. I have to face the fear. I have to take control of the situation and find a way to make it less frightening.

    I look Simulation Tobias in the eye and say sternly, “I am not going to sleep with you in a hallucination. Okay?�

    Then I grab him by his shoulders and turn us around, pushing him against the
    bedpost. I feel something other than fear—a prickle in my stomach, a bubble of laughter. I press against him and kiss him, my hands wrapping around his arms. He feels strong. He feels…good.

    And he’s gone.

    I laugh into my hand until my face gets hot. I must be the only initiate with this fear.”
    Veronica Roth, Divergent

    Veronica Roth
    “I think that you are the liar!" I say, my voice quaking. "You tell me you love me, you trust me, you think I'm more perceptive than the avarge person. And the first second that belief in my perceptiveness, that trust, that love is put to the test, it all falls apart." I am crying now, nut I am not ashamed of the tears shining on my cheeks or the thickness of my voice. "So you must have lied when you told me all those things... you must have, because I can't believe your love really is that feeble."
    I step closer to him, so that there are only inches between us, and none of the others can hear me.
    "I am still the person who would have died rather than kill you," I say, remembering the attack simulation and the feel of his heartbeat under my hand. "I am exactly who you think I am.”
    Veronica Roth, Insurgent
