TRIS
It still surprises me. The feeling of his arms wrapped around me. Sometimes I jump, or shake my head trying to remember. Because every time it happens I still think I'm dreaming, or in another Sim, tortured by Jeanine. But she was dead, she was killed by the very arms that I wake up to everyday.
I trace patterns onto his skin, he stirs slightly, pulling me closer to him.
"Morning" he mumbles into my hair.
"Morning"
I reply back, although my voice doesn't sound raspy like his. The truth is I've been awake for at least ten minutes, only I didn't get up. The reason was simple. Tobias. Tobias was holding me, caging me from the outside world. Keeping me safe, from I don't even know what. The only thing I knew was I was the safest in his arms, even if there was no reason to keep scared. I was never scared anymore. I never had nightmares. Anything that use to scare me just went away as if it sensed there was nothing it could do anymore to frighten me, not if I was with him.
"We gotta get up" I lift Tobias' arms and get up from the bed. Or at least I try to get up from the bed, he pulls me back to him before I could even place a single toe on the cold concrete floor the bed rests on.
"Don't leave" his voice tickles my ear.
"C'mon man-child, we have to go meet Max" a long breath escapes his lips, blowing my hair into a miniature whirl wind.
"Fine" he relaxes the muscles in his arms, freeing me.
"Hurry up we have have half an hour. Its already 8" I drag my feet over to the closet. MY eyes lazily graze over the clothes scavenging for something to wear. I jump whenever Tobias lets out a long yawn, the noise bouncing against the quiet room. Shaking my head, trying to knock myself out of my sleepy daze, I grab some red yoga pants and a dark gray shirt.Tobias goes into the bathroom, closing the door loudly behind him.I take off my night shirt and n change it out for the gray racer back. I slip the dark red pants on my legs and head to the living room.
Hair brushed, sneakers laced, and ring on I head out the small apartment door, Tobias just ahead. We dash to the cafeteria, grabbing a couple of muffins and quickly eating them before we reached Max's office. Wiping my chin of any crumbs, I look up at Tobia grinning before I push the door open.
Max sits at his desk staring a computer monitor, the glow highlighting how old Max really is. There are two chairs placed in front of Max's desks. He looks up just as the doors closes with bang behind us. I smile etches into his face as he greets us telling us so sit down.
"Thank you" Tobias says moving into the chris left of mine,.
"Firstly congratulations on your marriage, I'm glad to see my first ranks get together." Max nods,he eyes go a little darker ,the irises getting smaller."So I ask you to come here today because Dauntless is in of new Leaders. Now I need someone to help clear up the Dauntless name, having Eric sent to jail did not help us as a faction and we need some faces, and I think you guys are those faces" Ma eyes get a little lighter in color once he leans back allowing the light to shine on his face.
Tobias and I had already talk about this. A few days ago, it did get a little heated. Basically to sum it up, I thought we should do it Tobias on the other wasn't so sure. In the end after a two hour long discussion we decided we would do ti. To help Dauntless, to help the form a new Dauntless.
"We have already made our choice Max" I say glancing towards Tobias. "We'll do it" He faces lights up. That is before I finished" we just have a few conditions. Four wants to be in charge of the Initiates" I say eyeing him, he looks confused.
"Oh sure we were planning on doing that anyway" he brushes it off, slowly the smil come back onto his lips "Okay so I'll just you need to sign here, to show that you are a Dauntless leader" ax hands us a blank sheet of paper, with the words PRINT HERE, SIGNATURE HERE, written in bold. I take the en from Max's hand and quickly scrawl my name on the paper. Tobias does the same right after me.
We got up after talking for another thirty minutes, about our new duties and weekly meetings we need to attend.
"Thanks Max. See you in a couple of days" I say exiting his office.
Tobias takes my hand, lacing his fingers with mine. "We made the right choice" I reassure him stepping into the elevator.
"I know, I know" He breathes out.
OKAY'so that was pretty bad, but I tried okay.
Okay so this is somewhat the plot for this book also, there might be some Fourtris maybe might have a kid or two , I don't know, but time will tell.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR READING I LOVE YOU ALL xx
Stay Dauntless and Be Brave
