Tobias pov:
                          
I wake up Friday morning with pain in my back. That's when I remember Marcus gave me a extra long beating last night because he left to go out of town for a month. I get up and go put on a plain black t-shirt and Jeans. I put some styling gel in my hair to make it go up in the front. Gotta look nice for tris. My Tris. I'm so happy she's mine again. I love her so much and don't know what I would do without her. 
                          
I get into my red corvette and speed off to Tris's house. I go up to her door and pull my hand back to knock but she pulls the door open right as I bring my fists down so I hit her forhead.
                          
" I my gosh Tris I'm so sorry!" She is covering her face and making little small whimpers. Crap I made her cry. 
                          
" Tris I am so sorry I didn't mean to make you cry! Do you need ice? Here I'll go get some." I'm about to walk past her when she puts her hand on my chest so that she stops me from going in. One hand is still covering her face in the way she would block out the sunlight. She slowly pulls her hand away to reveal that she was laughing this whole time. "Yo- you should ha-have see your face" she says between her fit of laughter. Oh she's gonna get it. I pick her up and through her over my shoulder. I run to my car while she screams for me to put her down. Then she starts pounding on my back with her fists. I wince and put her down. Her eyes go from happiness to sympathy. " Toby I'm sorry... I didn't mean to hurt you" she says with tears in her eyes. This happened to us all the time when we were little. She would get really emotional if she hurt me at all. I must have been just standing there a while, because Tris has tears streaming down her face now. " No Trissy it's okay. My dad gave me a double beating last night because he is leaving town for a month! Now both of our parents are out of the house which means... " She cuts me off by saying "this" and then gives me a long but soft kiss. I pull back and say " I was gonna say we get to stay up past our bedtimes but I think your idea is better." She chuckles and gives me another kiss I try to deepen it, but she runs to the passenger side of the car. I groan and say "but trisssssyyyy!" In a childish voice. 
                          
"What are you 5?" She asks laughing.
                          
" No I'm Four" i reply while driving off while she just laughs.

Me and Tris walk into starbucks and order. When we get our drinks we see our friends at a table and go over to them. Christina squeals when she sees Tris then says " Tris!! The dance is coming up in a two weeks!" 
                          
"And what does that have to do with anything?!" She asks. 
                          
" We are going dress shopping today!" 
                          
" Umm Christina have you forgotten that I have my last effect today?" Tris asks. " No! of Coarse not! We can go after though!" Chris says.
                          
" Christina your acting like none of this is a big deal! There may not be an 'after' for me by the end of the day! I might die Christina and you're asking me to go shopping?! I mean you're the one who did this to me! you mixed the serums!" She says almost yelling and getting angry. " Tris you're the one that wanted to take the serum!" Christina defends. " No Christina! You gave me no choice! you told me what I was doing and that was it!" She says standing up and walking towards the doors. Christina's pretty upset. " Chris just let her cool down" Peter says.
                          
"Ya you guys will make up!" Lauren says trying to lighten the mood. I look back and see Tris is almost to the door when she lets out a blood curdling scream and falls to her knees grabbing her head. I jump up and run to Tris while everyone else is trying to process what just happened. " TOBIAS!" I hear her scream. I get down on my knees next to her. " It's okay Tris I'm right here. I love you, you're going to be okay." I say. I can here our friends in the back wondering why Tris called me Tobias. I make a mental note to tell them later. " Tris what hurts?" I ask her in a gentle voice. " M- my head it hurts. Not how a normal head ache would be though this is different and is the last effect p-please take me to the hospital and fast before it is too late." I don't ask any more questions I just pick her up and lay her in the back seat of my car. I speed to the hospital and by the time we get there she is asleep. 
                          
I tell the doctors what happened and they take her into the back. My friends show up a few minutes after. I tell them to go to school and I'll keep them updated. 
                          
They say that I can visit Tris now and as soon as I get into her room I run up and kiss her. She hesitates at first, but then kisses back. After a few minuets I pull back and say " I'm so happy you're okay Tris." She looks at me for a few seconds and then says " I have two questions. 
                          
1.where am I and 
                          
2. Who are you?" 
                          
My heart stops as she looks at me in confusion. 
                          
My first kiss 
                          
My first girlfriend 
                          
My first love
                          
Doesn't remember me.
                          
The last effect has taken place. 
                          
But one effect can change everything.
