Today I have work so I get to see Max. Yay. I still don't have an approach to ask him. I guess I'm just gonna have to wing it.

I go to his office and knock." Come in" He says in his deep voice.

"Oh hi Zeke." He says

"Hello Sir. " I say

"What do you need?" He asks.

Well here goes nothing.

"Well um uh you uh." I say oh great I'm stuttering.

"Spit it out Zeke." He says.

I take a deep breath and say " I love your daughter with all my heart. I want to marry her. I only felt it was right if I asked for your permission first." I say

"Well. I was expecting that. Just not so soon." He says

"Well I'm getting her a promise ring. I'm not proposing just yet. I feel we are still too young." I say.

"Well Natalie and I had known each other since basically birth. I proposed at the rankings ceremony. But I know you love her. So yes you have my permission to marry her in the future." He says

I really just want to scream. I'm just so happy that he said yes.

"Thank you so much Sir. I will take care of her and protect her with my life" I say

"I believe you will. But if you don't then there just might be a new body at the bottom of the chasm that will need to be cleaned up. " He says

I'm speechless. So I nod and shake his hand. He squeezes my hand so hard that I want to yelp.

"Bye Zeke." He says.

"Bye Sir" I say.

I exit the room and do a little dance. Only to turn around to see......

Four.

"What are you doing dude? " he asks

"Uh I was just uh you know. Dancing?" I say more as a question.

"Yeah I saw that. But why" He asks

"Well I have a promise ring for Tris and I wanted his permission. He gave me it and now I'm happy. " I say

"Okay. Well I will leave you to tell Tris. Oh and let me know if she says yes. I call best man you know." He says

"I was going to pick you anyway. I can't trust Uriah to make a speech in front of all the dauntless." I say.

"Yeah true. Bye dude" he says

"Bye" I say.

Now to find Tris.

•Tris POV •

"Come on Tris we need to get you lingerie for Zeke." She says. I blush and she laughs

"Fine but I'm not going in there. You know my size so you go get it." I say

"Yes I do know your size. And your size is bigger than mine." She says and we both laugh." I'm a pretty big underwear size and you are bigger than me."

"Okay whatever. By what you would get and that will be fine for me." I say

She squeals. "Okay but I'm also looking too for me" she says

"Whatever crazy woman" I say

She slaps my arm and walks into the store.

I sit on the bench out front. I see Zeke and wave to him. He smiles and sits on the bench with me.

"What are you doing?" He asks

"Waiting for Chris. She's buying some stuff. What about you? How was shopping?" I ask.

"Oh it was good. I was on my way to my apartment." He says.

Right after that I kiss him.

" Tris I think Zeke will like all of this." She says then looks away from the bag." I'm glad I got you some stuff" she says and winks.

" Well I'm going to find Uriah. Here Tris. Go hang out with your bae." She says and leaves me with the lingerie bag.

Zeke chuckles and grabs my hand. I gran the bag and we walk back to his apartment hand in hand.

"So what's in the bag that I would like? "He asks.

"It's some special clothes" I say blushing

"Oh. Does it have to deal with an activity that you and I like to do?" He asks with a smirk.

"Maybe" I say

"Do you want to try on some of these clothes " He asks

"I do now." I say

And that's what we did. Also an activity ;)
