Tris pov

I give the cashier my money and she hands me a receipt. I grab my two full grocery bags and head on my way home.

The last few months have been different without Liam.We pushed back our wedding a year because we are still dealing with Liam's loss and my dads.

My mom has been on cruises for months now, just letting all her emotions out in the wide open sea.

Tobias and I are stuck home miserable. I don't know why we argue so much now but I guess it has to do with the lack of affection we have towards each other. Our sex life is low, he works a lot of late nights because he's a cop, the way we used to be is some how lost.

To top it all off, this morning I found out I was pregnant. Looks like the 2 times Tobias and I actually had sex the past few months, it got me pregnant.

I decided since we've been so distant, I would make a big romantic dinner and reveal the news to him then.

I'm excited we're having another baby but it seems so fast with Liam gone. Nothing will ever replace him, he will always be in our hearts.

I get home and start to get the dinner together.

Tobias should be home in about an hour. I set the table up with candles and rose petals. I dim the living room lights and change into a casual dress.

I'm setting the plates on the table when Tobias walks into our house.

I run up to him and tackle him with a kiss before he could say anything.

He holds my waist and pulls away chuckling

"Someone's happy today" he says and I giggle

"Yeah I have something I wanted to tell you. I thought we could talk over dinner" I say

"Okay good. I have something I want to tell you too" he says

I hold his hand and we walk to the table.

"I made dinner. We have been ordering out so much for dinner I thought it would be healthy for us to have a meal that was actually cooked at home" I say as we sit down

"Tris what is happening right now? We were just arguing last night, how all of a sudden we're acting like we weren't just sleeping in two different places last night" he says

"Tobias we were arguing over a bill. It's in the past now. Are you really going to pick an argument now? I really want us to fix our relationship, ever since Liam died it's been different" I say

"Well for starters we're not as romantic as we used to be. We never have sex anymore and when we do is make up sex after we've just been arguing" he says and I cross my arms over my chest.

"This is why I'm trying to have this dinner with you so we can work things out" I say

"I slept with someone" he burst out and my eyes go wide, I cover my face with my hands and groan.

"Tobias why would you do that? I'm your fiancé, does this ring of us being engaged mean anything to you" I say

"If we have a problem we're suppose to fix it, not sleep with other people to let our emotions out" I sigh and we make eye contact

"I didn't mean to hurt you. It's just she was there when you weren't. It only happened once and it felt wrong the entire time. I regret doing it but at the moment it felt like my only choice" he says

"You're only choice to satisfy your sexual needs?" I question him and he groans

"More to listen to me when I needed someone to listen" he says

"That's what a therapist is for" I say

"That's what your for. You can't blame this all on me tris, you could have been there for me when I needed you" he says

"How is this my fault. I'm always here whenever you need me, not once have I pushed you away" I say

"I feel like I was always there for you but as soon as I needed you, things just got switched back to you and only on your feelings" he says

"Okay maybe I was more dependent on you but why did you cheat on me" I say

"I asked the same thing when you cheated on me with Al" he spits back and I giggle

"Tobias are you really bringing that up" I say

"It's a valid argument" he says and I sigh

"You know you can keep this because I don't think we are going to work out" I say handing him my engagement ring.

"Tris wait. We're just arguing, it doesn't have to go this far" he says

"It already has" I whisper as a tear runs down my face.

I grab my car keys and my coat and Tobias follows me as I get ready to leave out the door.

"Where are you going" He ask

"For a drive" I say buttoning my coat.

"Tris, I'm sorry, let's not leave this way" he says grabbing my hand but I pull it away

"I made this dinner so we could talk" I say pausing before I say it

"Because I'm pregnant" I say leaving him with his mouth wide open.

I get in my car and drive. I don't know where to or who to buy I'm just driving. If I return home today that's my decision. It's just me and this baby right now, me and this baby.
