Hello :) so sorry ive been absent for a while but i've been having a writer's block lately. I especially struggled to write this update... Sadly, i have decided to start on a new story so this will be the last chapter. :( Nonetheless, i hope you enjoy! <4

Days pass. Weeks, maybe.

But i am happy most of the time. I laugh when Uriah tells his stupid jokes, and grin when Christina and Will hold hands. It's all the little things that brighten my mood or make my day.

Four and i have been getting closer lately, and i am finally developing the theory that i like him. I was always attracted to him, but now i know it's real. Does he like me too? I don't know. I hope so.

"Let's go somewhere." he states rather than asks as we finish our last class together.

"Where?"

"Wherever you want." he says with a cute boyish grin.

"Okay." I say. My cheeks are hurting from the wide grin that has involuntarily plastered itself onto my face.

He drops me off at home to freshen u for a bit, and we decide to hang out in about an hour.

After doing absolutely nothing, I decide to change so i put on a black crop-top sweater and some jean-shorts. I pull my hair up into a messy bun and place some sunglasses on top of my head. I feather on some eyeliner for the cat eye affect and apply some mascara. Thanks to Christina, I've been getting the hang of doing my makeup on my own.

I call Four to tell him I'm ready and he says he'll be at my house in a few minutes. He texted me earlier when i was staring at the ceiling and said where we were going was a surprise. I hate surprises, but this is Four we're talking about. Being with him is enough.

The two beeps outside of my house tells me that he's outside already, and i hurriedly grab my purse and sling it over my shoulder, heading out the door.

His grin is contagious when i see him on my driveway, and I immediately return it.

I wrap my arms around his toned stomach and we speed off.

Trust.

I never knew what that was until i met some of my amazing friends. Christina,Uriah,Will,Zeke,Shauna,Lynn, they're always there. But one person specifically has made me a better person; stronger. Braver.

He's holding my hand right now as we walk through the crowd of the amusement park. Electricity curses through my veins.

After having a blast going on rides, our last stop is the ferris wheel. I can tell he's afraid of heights but is trying to man up for the sake of my entertainment, and i appreciate that.

As soon as we sit in one of the cabs, i know we saved the best for last. The sun has just begun to set as we go higher and higher.

"Tris," Four says beside me. My heart flutters at the sound of my name in his mouth.

I look at him and say,"Yeah?"

"My name isn't Four."

"Duh."

He realizes what he just said and looks a bit embarrassed. I nudge him a bit with my shoulder. "Your point being...?"

"My name is Tobias."

Tobias. Tobias? Oh my gosh, he's Tobias. Damn.

"You're Tobias? You're Marcus' son."

"Yeah,how'd you know?"

"He's my father's co-worker."

"Oh...so the guy i was getting pointlessly jealous over was me all along. That's kinda messed up."

"Maybe." I shrug. "Did i just hear you say you were jealous?"

"Yeah..." He says almost in a whisper. This is strange, Four- or Tobias- never whispers. "I might as well just tell you now..."

I'm clueless as i wait for answers. "I like you, Tris. I have liked you for a long time. You're so different from all the other girls. You're beautiful,independent, strong, and deadly smart."

I can't find any words to say so instead i take his head in my hands and bring his lips to mine. It's just a brief, soft kiss at first, but it turns into something much deeper. He wraps his arms around my waist and I've never felt so safe before, even on a creaky ferris wheel. I finally pull back for air and i slowly open my eyes.

We both smile.

"I'm taking it you like me too?" He asks.

"You're alright." I say and i lean my head on his shoulder, pressing my face into his neck. His grip on my waist tightens.

My parents had always taught me to be selfless as i was growing up. But right now i need to be brave. I am selfish. I am brave, and that's okay.

It's just us in this moment. No one to tell us we're wrong, no one to judge us. Staring into the sunset, we enjoyeach other's presence in a comfortable silence. I am his and he is mine, and it has been that way all along.
