Tris Pov
I've worked towards this day for almost a month and a half. Tonight I'm going back to Dauntless, I'm going back home. And because Dauntless does have a physical therapy department but no physical therapist they asked Caleb to come to Dauntless so he can still be my PT. I jump when I feel a hand on my shoulder pulling me out of my daze. I guess I zoned out for a moment. When I look up at who touched my shoulder I see those beautiful dark blue eyes I fell in love with the moment I saw them. Tobias' eyes, but not only his eyes are beautiful, I search his handsome features for any flaws, only to realize I can't find any. From the scar on his chin to his sharp jawline to his nose, I can't see anything I would change, he's perfect.
"Tris? You in there?" I hear his deep voice rumble. He is so cute when he is concerned. I blink a few times because my eyes have gone dry. And I see him looking at me lovingly. He's probably already used to the fact that I zone out so often. I look up at him expecting him to say something, but he leans in and plants his lips on mine instead. Gladly I kiss back and the time seems to stop, like it did the first time we kissed. If it still feels like this after a few months, how will it feel like in a few years? Will I love him more than I already do? I throw that thought out of my mind, I already feel like I can't love him more, and yet every second it feels like I love him more than the last. Our kiss is interrupted by a knock on the door, we break apart and I glance at the door to see who's there. I see my nurse Cara standing there with crutches and papers in her hands.
"Four, did you not tell her!" Cara exclaims in a scolding voice. I laugh and look up at him,
"Tell me what?" I ask confused.
"That Cara would be here over five minutes five minutes ago...." he says like a child whose mother told him to say sorry. Looking at his shoes, with his hands behind his back. "But hey, now we don't have to wait on her anymore!" he says happily. I laugh and reach out my hand to accept the discharge papers from Cara. She walks towards me with a clipboard with the papers clipped on it. I sign on the required places and get told that if I can't do the stairs with my crutches I need to go to a leader and ask for a card for the lift in Dauntless. Not everyone can use it because then it would be broken already. So if you're incapable of taking the stairs you get a card so you can use the elevator.
"Come on, let's go" I hear Tobias' deep voice say softly. I nod and groan a little when I get out of bed and change into sweatpants and Tobias' hoodie. He wraps an arm around my waist and helps me walk towards Cara, who hands me my crutches.
"How are we gonna get home? I can't jump a train like this..." I say unsure of where to go now.
"You can't, but we can," Tobias says mysteriously, "and besides have I ever let you fall?"
I shake my head, "You never have and you never will, you love me too much..." I say not really knowing what I am saying until about a second later. He chuckles when he sees how shocked I am that I said that.
"You're right tho," he says, "I'll never let you fall." I smile and we walk together to the tracks. We wait a while just chatting about anything and everything until we hear the tracks vibrate and we see the headlights of the train. Tobias lifts me and I wrap my arms around his neck and my legs around his waist, holding on tightly so I won't fall, he grabs my crutches in his right hand and begins running. He grabs a hold of the handle and slams the back of his hand with the crutches into the button of the door, and when the doors open he swings us inside. He sets the crutches down and sits me down on the floor.
"How the...." I trail off, "How on earth did you do that!?" I exclaim eventually. He laughs, "Why did you think I needed to practice with Caleb to jump off of the trains?" I stare at him and laugh.
"What did you do?"
"It's more like what Caleb didn't do..." he says trailing off
"No! You didn't carry him while jumping out right?" I ask shocked, I mean if that is what he meant. I look at him expecting an answer, but the face he makes says enough.
"He's heavy" he eventually says. I am laughing my head off and I am crying because I am laughing so hard, after a few seconds he joins in and there we are two idiots laughing in a train wagon. After a while, we can stop laughing and he sits on the floor with his back against the wall, I crawl towards him and he pulls me into his lap and he just holds me. I start dozing off in his arms and the shaking of the train.
Tobias Pov
I secure the crutches on my back so I don't have to hold them while jumping off with a sleeping Tris in my arms. When we get to the compound I jump off and walk to our apartment. I fumble with the keys and when I find the right one I put it into the keyhole and twist the lock. I get inside, making sure I take the key with me, and kick the door shut with my heel. I walk towards the bedroom, lay Tris in bed, and take her shoes off. I go to lock the door again and when I've done that I crawl into the bed next to Tris. I take her small form into my arms and doze off to sleep, glad that we're both home again. Glad my Tris is safe in my arms. Where I can protect her from all the bad things in this world. In my arms where I can love her unconditionally, and she loves me back. And for that, I am the luckiest man in the universe.
