The Unexpected. [Secuel To The Unknown] {Eric FF}

Fifty-Three.

Eric hated with all of his heart the beds in Erudite, and sleeping in the after so many years gave him bad memories. They were all supposed to be for improving the posture and increase the amount of deep slumber in the night, but for Eric it did the exact opposite.

And when he turned around and slid his hand on the other side of the bed, the fact that it was empty made him more angry. He let out a frustrated sigh and forced himself out of slumber.

"I went to the bathroom, God" Morgan said slipping into bed "you're so annoying with the whole 'dont like to wake up alone' deal"

Eric held her by the waist and pulled her close. The scent of her hair shampoo and her skin did a lot to cover up the pungent smell of chemicals with which they washed the sheets.

Eric accidentally fell asleep again when Morgan began to run her hand along the base of his neck and up to his scalp.

When he woke up there was a piece of paper on the bed, it read that Aleks had been left with Creed and Morgan had left to the fence to wait for the people in the Department. He was mad about it, but he knew there was not much he could do. Morgan had been sitting in Erudite, underground, while Eric took care of the settlement and the threat in the city, and that made her feel useless.

He showered and headed up to get Aleks, who he knew for a fact was in the nursery with the other kids and the Amity caretakers.

He pleased himself when he saw Creed just stand there, in the doorway, looking inside.

He walked to him and stood next to him, looking in to find Aleks stand up with other kids, though he had a bottle he was currently feeding off of.

Eric then looked to Creed and tried to get a look of the side of his neck.

"How's that coming along?" He asked, Creed just turned his head to him, showing his the almost healed cuts, though there was still a big black and blue on his side.

"As good as it can be. Still hurts when I move my head around"

"When we go back you can take a leave if you need it" Eric said looking at Aleks.

"Awww, he likes to take care of me" Creed said leading his hand to pinch Eric's cheek, but Eric swatted it mid way with a quick annoyed look, Creed just chuckled. "And where's Morgan?"

"She's off, dealing with the Department"

"Huh, didn't thought you'd let her go by herself to that thing"

"I didn't, I was sleeping when she made that decision"

"Well, Morgan does have a lot more handlag with them, and she would do or say what you would do or say"

"I have a meeting to take care of" he said getting ready to walk out "can you handle him for an hour?"

"Sure man" Creed patter down Eric's shoulder when he walked past him, and Eric was off to get ready the voting meeting to have the voting as soon as Morgan was back from the fence.

Morgan got off the truck with a little jump and set in motion towards the entrance of the fence.

She was being accompanied by 4 dauntless guards and a team of shooters was placed just above her, coving the meeting from the top of the fence wall.

Morgan hadn't let the truck with the purple from the Department come into the city, she traveled down to the fence where the convoy had been stopped.

Once the heavy door to the outside of the city opened, Morgan walked out with two dauntless guards at her side, and the other two were waiting near the entrace.
