I pull myself back to reality when tris presses her cold lips to mine. I catch on then kiss her back, despritaly, then stop myself because I remember she just escaped torture.
She grabs the seam of my shirt and pulls me closer and hugs me. A moan / sigh escapes from inside of me. She giggles and I melt, this is the first time Ive heard her laugh in two years.
I pick her up bridal style and put her on my bed, she laughs again. I kiss her and lay next to her then we both fall asleep.
------------
The next morning I wake up, tris still in my arms. I am hungry so I get up quietly so tris won't wake up. I walk to the kitchen and make chocolate chip pancakes.
"do i smell pancakes?" tris asks slightly giggling.
"yes you do, they are made from the chocolate you would use for dauntless cake"
"oh" she laughs
i pass her a plate and she eats slowly.
