Just to say that this isn't a 'follow up' of Insurgent. Tris' parents have already died and Tobias/Four is not a leader.

Also, Please review so that I know how I can improve on the following chapters!

Thanks :)

Chapter One

I woke up feeling ready: I feel ready to tackle whatever the world throws at me head on. I sleepily gazed around the room. For a moment, when I was still fighting my the sleepiness, I forgot where I was. But then I saw the slogan Fear God Alone on Tobias' wall. A sudden feeling of warmth rushed through me because I feel safe with him. He is the one who can protect me from the monsters lurking deviously in the shadows waiting to pounce on me unexpectedly. His mystical blue eyes are there to see those monsters so he is ready. His strong, muscular frame is to make them retreat. Tobias' hands are there to lace perfectly with mine so we cannot be separated when life tries to violently drag me away from the one I truly love.

"Morning, good sleep?" Tobias asked.

I sleep so well when I know that you are by my side, protecting and comforting me, I desperately wanted to say. Despite that, I fought the powerful urge to do so and instead answered

"Yeah thanks. It was..." I paused, trying to find a word that secretly told him he made me feel safe, "peaceful." I continued.

"Well, I'm glad about that because I want to take you to the tattoo parlour so we can get something we can look back on." He said.

I knew that if he was a sort of romantic, emotional person, he would have said "I wanted to take you so we can get something that is a symbol of our love and something we can look back on treasure forever in our hearts." But my Tobias is not that sort of person. I hope- know, that he does love me, with all of this heart and that he really cares about me and wants me to be safe because if he didn't, we wouldn't be together.

"Okay." I agreed, smiling. Although he didn't know it, inside, I was glowing bright like the suns beams. To me, this was a very significant part of our relationship because it told me that he truly loved me and wanted to stay with me.

We meandered to the tattoo parlour together where we saw Tori and Bud. Tobias casually explained what we were looking for and then we jointly decided on the design.

Happily, I watched Bud as he carefully formed the infinity sign on my wrist, then writing Tobais' name underneath. The pain wasn't excruciating; it was merely a dull ache.

Afterwards, I followed Tobias to the canteen and perched gently next to Christina whilst Tobias got me some lunch.

"Hi. You okay"? I asked her.

"Yes thanks. Just been shopping with Marlene and got a new top, I'll show it to you later if you like." She replied.

"Cool! I've just been to get another tattoo with To-" I nearly said Tobias but then corrected myself "Four." I told her.

"Oh! Lets see!" Christina enthused.

I rolled up my jacket sleeve so she could see. Christina carefully inspected my new body art whilst I looked up to see Tobias strolling over. When he saw me showing Christina, he gave me a slight scorn; clearly, he didn't want me to show everyone because that would make him seem like a softy!

Later on, after dinner, I returned to my room. Today, I had been so occupied with other things that I hadn't had time to remember... them.

My parents.

As I lay on my bed, with tears welling up in my eyes, I tried to melodiously hum myself to sleep, but the menacing memories kept powerfully forcing their way back.

The gunshots I had heard as I turned to see my mother collapsing to the ground whilst I carried on, running. The pain that had invaded me when I saw the screens in the control room where on one of them, my father lay lifeless after sacrificing his life for me. The happy times I had used to share with them in Abnegation. The different expressions they'd both wore as I walked out of the choosing ceremony with my new faction- Dauntless.

Gradually, I felt myself drift into a sleep with my traumatic past lingering persistently in my mind...
