AN: Hi everyone! Welcome back if you've read the prequel to this, and welcome for the first time if this is my first work that you are reading- I do suggest reading the prequel though, because certain events take place that affect this story. So off you go! I'm not going anywhere!

Alright, now for those of you who have read, this takes place about a year into the future from the past story. I hope you enjoy, and as usual, read, review, comment and vote! Thank you so much for your support of my last story and of your continued support for this one! By the way, you'll understand what the dress is for when you read the chapter!Tris POV
This is it. The moment I (and I hope Tobias) have been waiting for...I'm getting married today. After 2 years, from the moment he proposed to me...ideally, I wouldn't have waited so long but it was my parents' only request. They never asked anything of me but this, so I was glad to do something that would make them happy. They're sitting out there in the front, having gotten permission from the leaders to attend their only daughter's wedding. Marcus tried to come, but I kicked his ass (in my wedding dress) out the door.
Christina walks up to me, smiled, tears in her eyes, and says, "Ready to go Miss Dauntless? Soon to be Mrs. Dauntless-Eaton?" I tear up with her, and say, "You better believe it! I've been waiting for this for two years- the only person more excited might be Four!" I pick up my bouquet, face Marlene, Christina, Brianne and Ananya and say, "The end of the single life, ladies, and I can't wait!"
They laugh, line up in their identical black dresses and hairstyles, pick up their bouquets and get ready to go out. As we walk out to a stripped down version of my favorite song, "All of Me" by some guy years in the past named John Legend, I have eyes only for Tobias- he's smiling openly and is looking at me through blurred eyes, just like I am at him. When we reach the front, each girl stands with her significant other, except for Christina and Zeke as best man and maid of honor. Christina's wedding is in a month, but I'll be her matron of honor. I don't remember anything but reciting my vows to Tobias and hearing his-
I had memorized mine, and I sniffled a little and started, "Tobias, for a long time, I didn't understand why you would love me. I was never the prettiest or the smartest, and I thank my lucky stars every minute of every day that I fell in love with someone like you. No matter what's happened in the past, you've always been there for me, and while I am alive, I will love you unconditionally, forever, until I die, even if you go first. I will never stop being in awe of how we feel for each other, and each moment I love you feels like the first. These words aren't remotely enough to express what I feel for you, but it's the best I have, besides these words: I love you."
Tears openly running down his and my face, he starts his vows, "Tris, for a long time, I believed myself incapable of loving. I was a shell of a person until you fell (literally) into my life. The first time I saw you, I felt a spark, and I wondered if I'd have the courage to follow that spark. Thank goodness I did, because there is no version of my reality or dreams where you aren't standing by my side. I came alive the day I saw you, I hurt when you were hurt, and I have never been happier in my life to stand up here with you by my side. You have broken down my walls, and I will never stop thanking or loving you for all you've done for me,"
After that, I was openly crying, and all I remember is saying "I do" while looking straight into his blue eyes- my favorite things to look at.
Now I hear Max, who is acting as our officiator say, "You may now kiss your groom, Tris." We turn to look at him quizzically when he chuckles and says, "We all know Tris would have grabbed Four first anyway, and I figured I'd switch it up a bit,"
Laughing, I grab Tobias by his collar and pull him down to me. No kiss has ever tasted sweeter...
We turn around and face everyone. A lot has changed in two years. We managed to get the government to stop spreading the idea of faction before blood, making a lot of parents happy, because they could now see their children whenever they wanted. We're still loyal, but not at the cost of our fanily.
On a more personal note, Will and Christina are getting married soon, as are Uriah and Marlene. Zeke and Shauna are already married, eloping in true Dauntless fashion. Ananya and Pete moved in together, as did Brianne and Ryker. In fact, I fully expect that Brianne will be expecting a proposal sometime soon from Ryker, and Pete a proposal from Ananya. I laugh, thinking that the two of them always did do things backwards. Our initiate class from two years ago have become good friends of ours, and I can't imagine our lives without them. But, although a lot of things have changed, many things haven't. The way I eat my muffins, our scary instructor voices, and most of all...our love for each other. I can't wait for what comes next...
AN: Sorry for the late start! I had an Academic Decathlon meet to prepare for...10 subjects to know...not easy. Anyway, I have a snow day today, which is why I was able to get this done. So enjoy, and I'll update when I can! Thanks!
