Chapter 1
Music to My Ears

I wouldn't say it was exact enlightenment when I saw the results. Sure, I always considered having kids, eventually, one day… maybe when I was 30 or something. I also knew that it would be with Tobias' kid, that was a no brainer. But no, here I sit on a white porcelain toilet, 18 years old and holding a pregnancy test guaranteeing that I now hold Tobias' kid. Okay sure, I'm not at an ideal age but I basically can check off my other hopes if I ever had children. Maybe that's why I have a smile working onto my face; it may also explain why I have a desperate need to tell Tobias despite me leaving initiation training early for my own sake of taking this test.

Wait, I can't tell him now. Not with all those other initiates training, I guess I'll tell him tonight in our apartment. Okay, that what I'll do, now back to training those kids.

When I re-enter the training center Tobias has all the initiates surrounding the mat as 2 of them brawl in the middle. I hardly remember most of their names but I think I almost got it. There were 18 this year, 10 Dauntless born (Jason, Nina, Paul, Olivia, Edward, Jeon, Sandra, Rachel, Ariel, Patrick) the other 8 from different factions (Raleigh, William, Roxy, George, Paulina, Jackson, Danny, Jamie). Shauna and Zeke train the 5 separately leaving Tobias and I with the other 8, which is fine by me, they're all pretty good people anyway.

I look over to the fighting board and my mind goes into hyper drive as it matches faces to names and the chances of one person beating the other.

Round 1:
Raleigh- Candor- Blonde hair- Gray eyes- Male- Well built but poor speed
William- Amity- Jet black hair- Pale green eyes- Male- Scrawny but quick

Rounds 2:
Roxy- Erudite- Brown hair- Brown eyes- Female- Tall and frankly rather scary looking
George- Candor- Brown hair- Green eyes- Male- Great tactic, VERY bad timing

Round 3:
Paulina- Amity- Red hair- Green eyes- Female- Very sweet looking until you piss her off (Raleigh learned that one the hard way)
Jackson- Candor- Black hair with streaks of dark red- Sea green eyes- Male- Charming but not very good at keeping his mouth shut

Round 4:
Danny- Abnegation- Blonde hair- Brown/yellow eyes- Female- Strong, and quick but very small
Jamie- Amity- Black hair- Gray eyes- Female- Very gothic look going on with this chick

My bets are set on William, Roxy, Paulina, and Danny. I have high hopes for these girls, the boys… not so much.

"How are things going?" I ask Tobias while sliding right next to him and crossing my arms over my chest like him.

"Pretty good, William seems to be using the tactic of tiring out your opponent and then attacking." Tobias and I both laugh but soon cringe when Raleigh body slams William with a loud SMACK! "Well that didn't seem to help." Tobias mumbles and I hit his arm.

"Hey, give him a minute. William is fast and he has a strong stamina, he'll win."

"Is that a bet Prior?" Tobias turns to me, his cute grin and arched eyebrow making me blush.

"Loser has to give the winner whatever they want." I say, extending 'whatever' to show its significance. "You're on." Tobias sticks his hand out to me and I shake it, smiling with the pride and knowledge that I have practically won me a bet within a matter of minutes. The fight goes on a little longer, William still bounding around and Raleigh losing complete momentum and motivation. A finally blow to Raleigh's jaw sent him sprawling on the mat unconscious. Tobias scowls at me angrily before looking back to the boys.

"Round one winner, William!" Tobias announces while scratching off Raleigh's name from the board.

"I win, I win, I win, I win!" I tease in a whisper so none of the initiates hear. "Get him off the mat." I finally demand William and he drags off Raleigh's limp body until blood only remains on the mat.

"Okay, up next… Roxy and George." The two meet in the middle and instantly attack; grunts and screams echoing off everything while both severely damage one another's faces.

"We both know who is likely to win." I say close to Tobias's ear.

"Roxy." We both say in unison and as though it were meant to be, Roxy knocks the wind out of George and Tobias announces her win.

Fight three goes on for a good five minutes before Paulina smacks the cocky smile off of Jackson and sends him unconscious, the entire time we all stared in absolute fear. Tobias calls for the last fight and we both know how this could end. Jamie is big, Danny is even smaller than I was, and this is basically a Tris, Peter fight all over again.

"Wow great idea sticking the giant with the shrimp." I snap at Tobias in a whisper and he smirks.

"Common, this is perfect timing for her to show off her skills and if Danny is smart enough she may just play dead before Jamie can damage her." Tobias laughs and I roll my eyes.

"Idiot." I mumble and with that I watch a possible death unravel.
Danny dodges the first, second, and third attack but she took a pretty winded fourth attack without a second thought. Jamie straddled her and threw back and forth punches across Danny's face, blood splattering in all directions. This was even worse than I thought. Danny flails beneath Jamie and soon is giving a moment of relief before Jamie yanks Danny by her arm and a loud pop and snap echo in the room. Next a scream and heavy sobbing. I've been an initiate trainer for a little more than a year and with all three I haven't seen a fight like this. Even Tobias is panicking next to me.

"ALRIGHT THAT'S ENOUGH!" I demand and Jamie stops, kicking Danny one last time and walking to the side. "Everyone go to lunch, Tobias help me get her to Chris." He doesn't hesitate; together we walk through he compound, Danny heavily gasping for air as Tobias holds her. We make it to the infirmary and I ask the receptionist whom I know as Laura despite her name being Lauren, working at her desk.

"LAURA CHRIS' UNIT! IS SHE BUSY!?" I demand and Laura shakes her head, shocked to see the girl bleeding in Tobias' arms.

"CHRISTINA!" I cry out as I enter her unit and watch her emerge quickly from behind a curtain.

"Dear lord what happened?" She demanded, rushing over to us.

"Fights, a bigger initiate chose to take out ALL of her anger today."

"Wow you guys are really great instructors!" Chris says sarcastically and I roll my eyes.

"Please, just help her." I finally say and Chris nods, leading us behind another curtain.
We leave Danny in her hands and as soon as all of this adrenaline leaves my system my mind fills with the revolting images of that fight. Blood, vomit, and now I'm sure to be sick. I glance at Tobias and look at his blood soaked shirt and instantly run for a bathroom. He is quick behind me and pulls back my hair.

"Do I even have to ask for the test?" He asked with a chuckle.

"Not really." I say as I slip the test from my black jacket and hand it to him. I rinse my mouth as he gawks at the test.

"I'm… this… we… a baby… in you?!" He stutters and I nod.

"Yes Tobias, you are going to be a dad, this is all real, we are going to have a baby and it is currently inside of me." I say summing up what his splutter question probably was asking.

"Tris, this is…" His face looks strange, I've never seen him look like that before, now my stomach drops and I feel ready to cry. It never occurred to me that Tobias may not want this baby or wants to stay with me because I'm pregnant. "This is the greatest news anyone has ever told me."

Music to my ears.
