Pregnant in Dauntless- If the war didn't happen

Chapter Forty

•TRIS• 2 YEARS EARLIER

"Guys stop fighting!" Zeke shouts at me and Uriah.

I've pinned him to the ground and drooling spit onto his face while he screams. He brings his legs up and rolls me over, my arm bent behind my back.

"We're just practising!" Uriah pulls a face, looking at Zeke.
I take this opportunity to get him into a headlock with my thighs.

"Tap out!" I scream.
"Never!"
"Do it!"
"No!"
"Tap out you pansycake!"

He lifts his hand up slightly and slams it onto the arena floor. I cheer and high five my older brother who rolls his eye sarcastically.

"I'm going to get lunch." Uriah huffs, walking out in a grump.

"I'm hungry." Zeke explains, running after him.

I head over to the punching bags and throw my body into the tiny punches.

Suddenly I feel a hand around my middle and I freeze.
"You need to stand with one foot behind you."

I don't dare turn around. "What?"

"Use your elbows in a fight. It's an advantage."

He begins to pull his hand away but I place my palm on top of it. I can feel his shallow breaths against my bare neck.

"Why?" I ask quietly and I can hear him gulp.
"Because your punches aren't that powerful and your elbow and knees are pointier."

I let go and turn around, our noses touching. "No, why did you kiss me and leave?"

His oceanic eyes open and he blinks once. Twice.

Then tilts his head slightly and suddenly I'm pushed against the punching bag. I have my hands on his neck and his arms wrapped around my middle. He lifts me up onto my tiptoes  so I can reach him.

My ankles hook around his and I topple over slightly. I grab his shoulder but end up pulling him down with me.

Just as my back is about to hit the floor he turns us around so I fall on top of him. As I land on his chest he starts coughing.

I sit up suddenly, my legs on either side of his body. "Oh my god! Are you okay?"
In between fits of coughing he nods and laughs at my fear for him.

When he stops he leans on his arms and looks me in the eyes. "I'm fine. I'm glad it wasn't me landing on you though."

I scoff. "You're such an idiot."

"I want to show you something." He whispers in my ear and I nod.
"What?"

"It's a where." He replies and I frown a little in confusion.

He stands and pulls me up aswell. Then I'm being dragged out of the gym and into the pit through crowds of people who mutter and shout as we push by them.

"Sorry!" I shout back to them and get dirty looks in return.

Then I'm being pulled into a dark cave and led down a tunnel. The light is dim and I can't see in front of me but I feel safe with my hand in Four's.

A drop of water hits my shoulder and I jump slightly, causing an echoing chuckle to escape his mouth.

"Shut up." I push him in the shoulder flirtatiously and immediately want to hit myself for acting like such an idiot.

We take a turn and suddenly I can see everything a little clearer. Surrounded by rocks, a small pool is illuminated by the light shining through gaps in the Rocky walls.

It must lead from the water in the chasm and have been cut off by the fallen rocks. I let go of Four's hand and walk over to the edge, dipping one toe into the clear water.

It's cold and I draw my foot back quickly. When I turn around, Four is shirtless and tugging down his black trousers.

"What are you doing?" I squeal, facing away quickly.

I can practically sense him rolling his eyes. "We're going swimming."

I hear a splash and water sprinkles across my face. I face him again and send him a warning look.

"Fine but you can't look."

"I pinky promise." And he turns Around reluctantly.

I quickly pull my vest off and tug my leggings down, throwing them on top of his.

I turn around just as he quickly looks away, a dark blush spreading across his cheeks. I give him an awkward smile and climb in next to him, wearing a black sports bra and plain underwear.

Not that I have anything to cover anyway, I've never had anything close to a body. Where there should be soft curves there's only muscle.

Four doesn't look though so I start to feel more comfortable as I wade across the pool and face him. 

Looking him deep in the eyes I kick to stay afloat whilst gripping his legs where he sits on the edge.

"I really am sorry Bea." He says quietly and I nod carefully.

"I know. It just hurt that's all." I sit on his lap and rest my head in the crook of his neck and cuddling into his body. He wraps his arms around me and I feel better than I ever have before.
