Tris POV

Tobias and I decided to have a valentine's day dinner together. He wanted to make dinner. I agreed.

He told me to dress fancy, and dress Ellie nice. I agreed again. I didn't mind. I thought it would be kind of fun.

Christina forced me to get ready at her house. I brought my black chiffon dress with small slits on the shoulder. I dressed myself before dressing Ellie. Then Chris would do my make up.

"Done yet?" Christina asks. 

"Nope," I say. I slip Ellie's black leggings on as she makes small noises and plays with her duck.

"Daah," She says. I chuckle.

"Daah," I say. She smiles. I slip on a black onesie with an attatched red skirt. I slip a red bow in Ellie's hair and she smiles at me.

"You're beautiful," I whisper and kiss her head. Christina comes in.

"Enough. Makeup time." She says. I lift Ellie and head into the bathroom.

Christina is an artist with make up. She did it simple, yet noticeable-just the way I like it. 

"Cupcake," Ellie says. She sat on my knee playing with her ducky the whole time.

"That's too cute," Christina says. "Dani's first word was apple."

"Aww, that's sweet." I say. I crack a smile. "Get it, sweet? Like an apple?"

"No Tris," Christina says. We both burst into laughter at my terrible joke. I really am bad at jokes.

"Alright," I say, checking my watch. "We should get going. Have a good valentine's day," I say. Christina gives me a hug.

"You too." She says. I grab my bags and head back to my apartment. Oddly enough, Tobias told me to knock, so I did.

The door opens slowly, revealing a dark room and a smiling Tobias.

"Beatrice," He says, extending his hand. I roll my eyes and take his hand. He leads Ellie and I to the kitchen. My jaw drops.

There's lights draped from the ceiling and the furniture's been moved. The kitchen table is moved slightly from it's original spot. It has a white table cloth with a small vase with red roses. There's a chair for Tobias and I, and a high chair for Ellie.

"Tobias, I," I say. I can't find the words to describe how magnificent this is. The lights are dimmed, giving the effect of the lights.

"Anything for my two favorite girls." He says. I smile and kiss his cheek, slightly stubbly from his shave.

"May I?" He asks, holding out his hand. I blush as I grab it with my free hand.

He leads me to the table where I slide Ellie into her high chair. She panicks a little, but settles down once she's seated. I tie her bib on, then Tobias seats me, then brings food from the kitchen.

"Now, I'm not great at cooking, but I managed to make pasta," He says. I smile as he spoons penne in a red sauce on my plate. He does the same for himself and on a smaller plate. He sits and cuts up the pasta on the small plate for Ellie and blows on it.

"Can't have my baby burn her mouth," He says. He places  the plate in front of ELlie and she picks up a piece. Her hands get covered in sauce, and so does her mouth. It's cute though.

Tobias pops a champagne bottle and pours two glasses.

"Happy Valentine's Day Miss Beatrice," He says. I chuckle.

"Happy Valentine's Day Mr. Tobias," I reply. Our glasses clink and we drink the amazing tasting champagne. Ellie grabs her sippy cup and holds it up.

"Blaah," She says. Tobias and I laugh. I can't ask for a better family.

XXPAGE BREAKXX

Tobias laid out a blanket in the living room and we are laying on it. We just look up at the lights with Ellie between up and think.

"Tobias," I ask.

"Hmm,"

"Do you ever think about what would have happened if you chose abnegation? Or if you chose dauntless and I chose abnegation?" I ask. He sighs.

"I do. But Before I met you-actually met you in dauntless- I was planning on becoming factionless after initiation. I was depressed. I didn't like becoming Four."

"Tobias," I say. I grab his hand.

"But Tris, you changed my whole life. I wouldn't have ever been happy again. Now, I have a beautiful wife, a beautiful daughter, and wonderful friends. I couldn't ask for more, and all it took was you," He says. He kisses my forehead.

"Why didn't you tell me you were going to leave dauntless?" I ask.

"It was something I felt should stay inside." He says. I nod.

"Well, i'm happy too. I'm glad I have you, I'm glad we have Ellie, and I'm happy with my life." I say. I rest my head on Tobias's shoulder and he kisses my hair.

"I think Ellie's asleep," He says. I look down and find Ellie sleeping, her tiny hands clutching my dress.

"It's way past her bedtime," I say. I sit up and slowly lift Ellie up. Tht didn't work. Her eyes pop open and she starts to cry.

"I know," I say. I hold her close to my chest as I walk into her room. I lay her on the changing table where she continues to cry. I quickly grab a white footsie with purple polka dots and a new diaper.

"Shh," I say. Tobias walks in behind me, already ready for bed.

"Shh," He says, brushing away her tears as I work on her diaper. She kicks her legs, making it hard for me. Tobias restrains her as I rush to finish. I slip her feet in her pajamas and zip it up fast.

"Someone's overtired," I say, holding Ellie close. She wails into my chest as I bounce her.

"Go get ready for bed, I'll try to calm her," Tobias says. I hand him Ellie and run to the bathroom. I brush my teeth and my hair, throwing it into a crappy ponytail. I remove my make up and pull off my dress and throw one of Tobias's shirts.

I rush back to Ellie's room, where her wails are now cries.

"She should sleep with us," Tobias says. I nod. He hands Ellie to me. I bounce her back to my room and slide into bed. I pat her back, run my fingers trough her hair, and hum a little. It works.

I lay her on her back in between Tobias and I and hum.  Her eyes flutter closed and she calms down. Tobias wipes her tears dry until her breathing slows and her grip on my shirt loosens.

"Goodnight," I say, kissing her head. Tobias does the same to her and me.

"Night," I say. Tobias and I face eachother, falling into a dreamless sleep.

INSTEAD OF WHITE, IT'S BLACK vvvvv
