Fixing Four (A Divergent Fanfic) Completed

Chapter 36

     When I wake up,I wake to the smell of Bacon and eggs.I slowly raise my head up the delicious smell that admediately enters my nostrils and take a deep breath.The last time I smelt something this good was when Tobias cooked scrambled eggs for all of us and the factionless.That was so long ago.

     I slowly swing my legs over the side of the bed and rub my eyes trying to avoid going back to sleep.After a moment the urge disappears and I can finally see everything clearly.I get up and walk over to the small kitchen that Tobias' has and lean against the wall and watch him cook.He never really got to me as a person who likes to cook but he seems to really appreciate it.I believe he seems to like cooking cause he's not hurting anyone.I agree but I don't like to cook.

     As Tobias turns around to set two plates filled with eggs and Bacon on the small table his eyes admediately land on me.He smiles as he sets them down and walks over to me and gives me a quick kiss.

     "I have never heard of a ghost cooking breakfast before." I say smiling against his lips.He laughs a little then kisses me again.

     "Is there a law against a dead man fixing breakfast one last time for his wonderful wife?"

     I shake my head and look down at my ring on my finger.We aren't exactly married.We're engaged or were engaged but I already feel like we have been married.

     "I love you,Tobias." I say before kissing him on the lips quickly.

     "I love you,Tris." I start to try to kiss him but he backs off and smiles.

     "Hey!" I say laughing a little.

      "Not until we finish eating." he says smiling.

     "Fine" I mumble under my breath.Tobias pulls out a chair for me to sit in and I gladly sit down.After he pushes the chair underneath the table he says "You are still as light as a feather." He busts out laughing when I give him a death glare.I probably do look like a little girl who says she is about ready to strangle someone with her jumprope.

     "That's not funny." I say seriously.He still continues to laugh a little as he sticks a piece of freshly cooked Bacon into his mouth.

     When I finish eating,I slip into the shower and wash my hair.When I get out I put on a black shirt that reveals my ravens and black skinny jeans with black combat boots.I quickly blow dry my hair and let it hang loosely over my shoulders.

     I look into the mirror at myself and notice my long irregularly shaped nose and my large blue eyes.My lips are the only thing on my face that are not that irregular.I still look the same I did since the day of the choosing ceremony.The only thing that has changed is how I live now but I wont live much longer so you could say I haven't changed a bit.

     I place my hand over my cheek and close my eyes and focus on its warmth.Sometime in the next hour or two this warmth will be gone.All Ill be is a lingering soul waiting for Tobias to come and rescue me.I may not know what's after but all I know I'd that Ill be with Tobias.That's all that really counts at the moment.

     I open my eyes and let my hand fall to my side.I walk over to the door and take a deep breath before opening it.When I open it,Tobias stands next to the door with the note I wrote to Christina at hand.He gives me a ghost of a smile then frowns at me.

     I walk over to him and stare up at him.There is a tear in the corner of his eye.It seems to find its way down his cheek and I gently wipe it away.

     I stand up on my tip toes and kiss him carefully on the lips.With tears in my eyes I say "Ill be with you soon.Just wait for me on the other side,ok?" He nods his head and then kisses me more passionately this time.He places both of his hands on my face and I wrap my arms tightly around his neck.When we separate I fall into his shirt and begin to cry.I don't know why I'm crying.Everyone that I have ever loved waits for me on the other side.I was meant to be there in the first place.

     I bury my face into his shirt and carefully try to imagine his heart beat.

     "You don't have to do this,Tris.You can stay here."

     "No!" I say almost cutting him off "I am coming home,Tobias.I could barely hang on for that one day without you here physically.I need to be with you.In the same state as you.I refuse to live my life on this earth without you."

     I quickly kiss him on the lips,take the note from him,and head out the door to prepare for my death.
