75 - Jordan

Tris
I wake up rested for the first time in days. I rub my eyes and actually smile. I look around - expecting to find myself in the cell in the dark cellar of the dauntless compound. But instead i am in a white room with big windows through which early morning sunlight falls. I frown but then all the events from the last day - I hope it was the last day - start trickling in, till the point where my body just gave up and I collapsed.
My hand lays on my stomach and i sigh in relief when I feel the small baby bump. My baby is okay, I can feel it. I know it.
I carefully sit up. To my left are the windows, in front of me is a plain white wall with just one small painting, to my right is a small bed on which Tobias lays peacefully snoring. I have to smile. He still looks so much younger in his sleep. I remember the night after Peter, Drew and Al tried to kill me. How I looked at this boy sleeping next to me and realized that he wasn't always my scary instructor Four but also another person. And from then on I always wanted to get to know that person. Understand this person, get to know his secrets and his pain but also all his joy and happiness. I have to smile wider and try to sit up completely. There is an iv in my arm and next to me is a heart monitor and other monitors I don't understand. The iv also doesn't look like the others I had before. It's thinner and i barely feel it in my arm.
I look at the clock over the wooden door. 6 am. Is it too early to wake up Tobias? I guess... but I think I'd want him to wake me up.
"Tobias..." I whisper. He doesn't move. "Tobias." I whisper a bit louder. He still doesn't respond. I sigh and move my feet over the edge of the bed. I see crutches next to me bed and grab them. With them I easily move over to him and sit down on his made shift bed. The stand on which my iv hangs slowly rolls up behind me.
I softly stroke his hair away from his forehead. "Tobias." I whisper again and softly press my lips to his forehead. He moves a bit and then opens his blue eyes. He needs a few seconds but then in no time he pulls me down to him and I let the crutches fall to the ground with a loud noise. He carefully pulls me on top of him and hugs me tightly. "I love you. So much." He whispers and nuzzles his face in my neck. I breath in his scent that still makes me feel safe and at home. Now more than ever.
"I love you too. So so much." He smiles and then kisses me again. I smile against his lips and slide down from him into a more comfortable position next to him. He lays on his side and pulls me towards him. I lay a hand on his chest and slide the other around his hip. He readjusts the blanket so it covers both of us but I don't even need it. He is so warm that I don't need a blanket around him. I press my head against his chest and use one of his arms as a pillow. After a few seconds of comfortable silence I look up at him. He is already looking down at me. "What did you find out about this place?" I ask and somehow scoot even closer to him. He nods. "I don't really know how to explain. It's... a lot. Defiantly a lot. I'll just give you some basic information. Zoe can explain everything further later." I nod. "Okay. Go ahead." "So... this once was an airport." When he sees my frown he smiles. "An airport is something where planes land and departure. And planes are something you can fly with. Like over the clouds. It's... insane. You can fly around the world. Which is huge by the way. And then there was something about a war... but i guess Zoe can explain that better than I do." I nod but I'm still frowning. "So you want to tell me that there is a way to fly over the clouds... like a Bird." He smiles. "Yes. There is. As i said it's insane... Like a bird." I shake my head. "That is..." He smiles. "It's not impossible. I've seen one departure. Zoe promised to take whoever wants on a fly." I smile a bit. "I bet especially Uri had a great interest in that." He smirks at me. "Hundred points. As soon as we saw them he and Lynn only thought of those planes. Zoe thought about letting them make their own license. Then they could be the ones to fly the planes. The pilots. Imagine that. Flying one of those things yourself. That would be... scarily wonderful." I have to smile and then look down atme stomach. "Is the baby healthy?" His smile widens. "Yes. He is." I stare at him. "What?" He smiles even wider. "I said that he is healthy." "So... so... it's... we..." i stutter. He softly kisses me. "It's a Baby Boy." I smile widely and kiss him passionately. "Tobias... we Are going... we are going to be parents of a little baby boy. A little boy." He smiles and kisses me again. I press myself closer to him and he softly places one hand on my stomach. I scoot closer to him. "What should we name him?" He still smiles faintly. "I don't know. Do you remember we already had this talk. We chose Felix for a boy." I nod and play with his fingers. "Can we maybe rethink that? Because... I don't know. I don't really want him to be named Felix. I don't think it suits him anymore. He is wasn't particularly lucky about when he was born and the circumstances. You know?" He nods. "Yeah. I feel the same way. How about for now we pick... Jonathan ?" I voice the name in my head. "Mh, I don't really know. What about Jordan? For now." He thinks about it for a few seconds and then nods. "Yes. Jordan sounds perfect. For now." I nod, rest my head against his chest and close my eyes. He softly moves his thumb over my stomach and whispers, "sleep tight little Jordan." I smile and peck his lips.
