ANOTHER CHANCE (Divergent Story : After Allegiant)

CHAPTER 30 : Question

Tobias P.O.V.

Today is the day.

The day that I get to find out if we are having a boy or girl. The day I will be proposing to Tris. I am a bit nervous, that is to be expected, but I can't be happier. I get to wake up next to Tris every morning; I get to see how she is carrying our baby.

She couldn't get more beautiful than she is now. I wake to see Tris stare at the wall, her back against my chest and her hands holding my arm draped around her waist. "Morning," I whisper, giving her a kiss on her cheek.

"How long have you been awake?" I ask her. She turns so she can look into my face. "Just a couple of minutes and good morning to you too." she answers and gives me a peck on the cheek. "I want to go take a quick shower, then I can start breakfast while you get ready" she tells me. I know I can't argue, so I just say okay. She stands up and leaves for the bathroom.

I look and see the door closed. I rush to the one little side table and take the ring out. I look at it for a few minutes and decide to get dressed. I take the ring out of the box and place it in my pants pocket, I can't keep it in the box she will notice it. I hear her finish in the bathroom and a few minutes later I hear the door creak open. Her hair is still wet and she is trying to dry it a bit more. She smiles at me as she sees me standing there.

I head to the bathroom and finish up and head to the kitchen. Tris just made some eggs and toast, which is fine as my stomach is starting to make flip-flops. I hope she says yes, I will die if she doesn't. I need her in my life, I need her as I need air and I won't be able to live without her. I had to do it twice now, even if the second time was only for 2 months.

We have breakfast and head out into the city, me holding her hand. "What do you want?" she asks me.

"What do you mean?" I ask her looking into het beautiful face. "Do you want a boy or a girl?" she asks.

"I don't really care as long as he or she is healthy." I answer her. She looks at me and smiles. We continue to the doctor's office and wait for our appointment. After a few minutes we are told that we can head into the doctor's office.

Tris is told to lie on a table and I stand next to her holding her hand. The doctor and nurse start their examination and I feel my pocket to make sure that the ring is still there. He then tells us that everything seems in order and if we would like to know the sex. He is just asking this as Tris doesn't know what I am about to do.

She looks at me and turns to the doctor as says yes. He moves the wand thing over her stomach and the next moment we see our baby fully on the screen next to him. "Congratulations, you are having a baby girl" he informs us. I can see Tris has tears running down her cheeks.

The doctor and nurse quietly slips out of the room and I know it is now my time. I go down on one knee and pull the ring from my pocket. Tris turns around and finds me on the floor on one knee. She looks at me and gasps.

"Tris, when you first fell into that net, I didn't know what was going on with me. But when I looked into your eyes I knew that something in me changed. Through the months of the war I just fell more in love with you. Then you were taken from me. I could never get over you and never thought that I will love again.

When I found you in that street, my world collapsed. Seeing you infront of me, I thought someone was playing a sick joke on me. I loved you all this time and holding you in my arms that day, I can't even describe how I felt. With everything going on since then, my only thought was that I love you and can't imagine my life without you."

I take a deep breath and ask, "So I ask you now, will you make me the happiest man alive and become my wife. Will you marry me?"

"Yes" she whispers. I jump up and give her a hug, feeling tears on my cheeks. I am so happy right now. I turn to the monitor and say, "Do you hear that baby girl, mommy said yes" I take Tris' hand and place the ring on her finger. My life is now complete.

Through everything that I have gone through as a child and with all the factions, meeting Tris and then the war, I can say that today is the happiest I have ever been. I have a baby girl on the way with the most beautiful woman on the planet and I am happy.
