Tobias pov:

Tris died yesterday. Today is her funeral. Her family wanted to have it as soon as possible so they could get the pain over with. I get into my black suit. Last night I didn't get a beating because even my dad is upset he liked her.
We drive to the funeral at the church. I walk in and I see her casket wide open. I feel alone without her here. I see the group and walk over to them.
When I say "hi" they turn around and I see that they are all crying. Even Lynn and Peter. That's when Peter says sadly
" Now I have nobody to pick on." We all give him ' the look'. He didn't bully her just teased her. She did the same back to him, but it was more of a friend kind of thing so I didn't really mind. They announce that now is the time to look at her one last time and say your goodbyes and that when you are done go wait outside for everyone and then they will go and bury her. I want to be the last to see her so I go to the very back of the line, on the way I see her family and hug them and they say " I'm so sorry, Tobias we know you loved her so much." Yes they know my real name they are like family and know about Marcus. They always helped me when I was little. " Thank you guys so much for everything. I hope you realize you're like my parents." I say with tears in my eyes. I know I'm ' The Four' but I loved her and I always will no matter what.
I hug them and go to the back of the line. I watch as people go up one by one saying goodbye. I am surprised to see Lauren is here. She is one person ahead of me. When it's her turn it is now completely quiet because almost everyone is outside.
She slowly walks up to Tris.
"Umm Tris..." Then tears start streaming down her face. " I am so sorry for everything. If I'm being honest I was just jealous of you. I mean you are so pretty and nice... And you have Four and I just really liked him and you guys were going out. I'm really not a bad person I just used to be bullied and I couldn't take it so I wanted people to feel what I felt. Oh and you don't have to worry about the thing about having a crush on Four. I'm over it." She says. I know she has done a lot of mean things but after hearing that I forgave her. I walk up and embrace her in a hug. Lauren just cries into my chest while the person in front of me says goodbye. When he is done, I pull away from her and say
" Lauren I forgive you and Tris would have too. Know that okay?" I say.
She nods her head. "Thank you Four" she says wiping her eyes. I give her a friendly kiss on her forhead. She smiles and walks out. Now it's just me and Tris. I walk over to her casket. She looks so beautiful even without hair.
" Tris" there are already tears pouring down my cheeks. " I am so sorry this happened to you, you don't deserve this. I know we broke up but I knew we both still loved each other. And just so you know, I still love you." I say. I look at her one last time. I am about to walk out of the room when I hear

"I love you too"
