We spend at least an hour in the furniture store when Tobias tells me we need to go. I want to protest at first but then he points at his watch and I remember we were supposed to pick up my dad. We thank the saleslady for her help and patience and head outside the compound towards the train tracks. My dad is nowhere to be seen yet, but it's still early.
"I saw some amazing furniture for the living room while you looked over desks for your home office" I tell him. "I need to show it to you tomorrow when we go back."
"Okay. I'm going to ask Zeke to help me take measurements tonight and tomorrow we can go back and order the furniture we want."
"That's awesome. Do you need me to come with you later or do you need some alone time with your best buddy" I ask teasingly.
"For the record, I always need you" he says wrapping his arms around me and kissing me thoroughly. "But I would like to spend some time with Zeke if that's ok with you" he says.
"Sure. I don't want Zeke telling everyone I'm keeping you on a short leash." He starts laughing and I join in.
"Alright. I'm going for a drink with him after we finish at the apartment, but I won't be long."
"Okay. But Tobias" I start and I'm suddenly nervous about how to tell him this.
"Yes?"
"I need to tell you something. Don't get mad."
"What is it?" he asks concerned.
"Remember the last time you had a drink?"
"Yeah, after capture the flag. I told you that you looked good" he says.
"Yeah. You were kind of weird that night. Not at all like yourself" I say with caution.
"What do you mean?" he inquires.
"Well it wasn't something bad, but you were I don't know too happy" I say hoping he gets it.
"I wasn't drunk, Tris" he says a little upset. Shit.
"I didn't say you were. You were only different. I don't know how to explain it. You acted a little too carefree, so unlike yourself. Don't you remember?" I ask.
He is quiet for a while, thinking maybe about what I said. Maybe he is more upset than he lets on. But we promised to tell each other the truth no matter what. And he really acted differently that night after he drank. But back then I didn't care so much. He was just my instructor and I didn't have to put up with this shit. Now it's different. I'm his girlfriend and we live together.
"Thank you for telling me, Tris" he finally says pulling me out of my own thoughts. I look at him and he stares down into my eyes. "I usually don't drink that much. One beer or two tops. But that night after capture the flag, after we had our moment on the Ferris Wheel you went with Uriah zip lining and I got extremely jealous. I got back to the compound and drank one beer after the other. I thought I wouldn't see you till the next day, but then you entered the Pit looking so happy and beautiful and the alcohol made me tell you exactly what I thought. I always thought you were beautiful, but I never had the balls to tell you. Besides how could I? I was your instructor. If you would have stayed any longer in the Pit I would have kissed you senseless that night" he confesses.
"You were jealous?" He nods. "Of Uriah?" He nods again. "Well, you don't have to be anymore. I'm all yours" I say wrapping my arms around his neck.
"Yes you are. But I'm still going to get jealous whenever a guy comes near you. But I trust you and I know you love me and that you would never betray me. Just like I would never betray you" he says.
"Damn right. Come here" I say and we start kissing again. After we break apart Tobias rests his forehead on mine and stares deep into my eyes.
"I promise I won't drink more than one beer" he says. "But you have to tell me if I act not like myself when I get back to the apartment. If only one drink makes me lose control over myself I will stop drinking altogether."
"You have a deal. I love you, Tobias."
"I love you too Tris."
Just when he leans down to kiss me again someone clears his throat and we both turn to see who it is. Unsurprisingly it's my dad, who just arrived.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Prior" Tobias says straightening up.
"Good afternoon, Four."
"Hi dad."
"Hello Beatrice. So, how can I help you?" he asks.
"Please, Mr. Prior, let's go to my office. We can talk there in private and a lot more comfortable" Tobias says and the three of us head back to the compound.
The walk back is quiet and a little uncomfortable. I know my dad still feels uneasy about Tobias, but I'm sure once he gets to know him better it will all go away. I love Tobias with all my heart and I don't think I would ever love anyone ever again.
We reach Tobias's office and he unlocks it letting me enter first, followed by my dad. He closes the door behind him and me and my dad sit in the chairs in front of Tobias's desk, while he takes his place behind it.
"Mr. Prior, I'm sorry I've asked you to come here, but I don't know anyone else on the council other than you and my father and frankly I don't want to talk to him. The reason I asked you here is that I wanted to know if the council made any decisions regarding the interrogations of everyone in the city."
"Not yet. Why?" my dad asks.
"What happened with our former leaders shook us to the core. In order to rebuild and improve the faction I need to know who I can trust. Of course there are a few people I trust even without the truth serum, but it's better safe than sorry."
"Well we haven't really organized anything but to be honest no one other than you asked about this. But I guess we could organize something."
"That would be great. Is it possible to do the interrogations here?" Tobias asks.
"I don't see why not. But I will have to talk to my fellow councilmen and then get back to you" my dad says.
"There is something else. I want the people who interrogate the Dauntless to be put under truth serum first. Specifically, I want them to be asked if they harbor any kind of ill feeling toward my faction. Also, I want to be interrogated first, since Tris already went through her interrogation. And one last thing I don't want my father here under any circumstance. But if he insists I won't be able to stop him, but at least I don't want him in the room during my own interrogation."
"I think we can make that happen. When do you want to do this?" my dad asks.
"Monday. It's already too late in the week and you are probably still busy at Candor. Here is my private cell phone number. You can contact me whenever you need anything or want to talk to me or Tris."
"Thank you. I assume this number is for my eyes only, right?"
"And moms" I say. My dad nods understanding what we ask.
"As for the interrogations I will talk to the council and get back to you. I think four interrogators will be sufficient. What do you think?" he asks us.
"I think that too. I don't think the interrogations will take very long unless someone is against our faction. We have holding cells here and if anyone sticks out we can transfer that person to Candor."
My dad stays a little while longer and we talk about what else needs to be done for the upcoming interrogations. I write everything down that needs to happen before the actual interrogations take place and make a mental note to get myself a cell phone as well.
Soon my dad says goodbye and leaves the compound with Tobias, who insisted to walk my dad out. I decide to make copies of the list with available jobs for my fellow initiates and grab the keys to all the apartments. When Tobias comes back we decide to head to the cafeteria to grab something to eat. The moment we enter all the initiates gather around us and talking one over the other. It takes for Tobias to put his most intimidating Four mask on to make them shut up.
"We usually have a ceremony where we do this" he starts saying as loud as he can and the Dauntless in the cafeteria stop talking, trying to listen to what their new leader is trying to say. "Given recent events we are going to postpone the welcome party for the new Dauntless members until this whole situation is clarified. Until then Tris and I have here the apartment assignments. We haven't gotten a chance to inspect the apartments ourselves, we found the list among the files of the former leaders. I wanted this to make it a little bit more welcoming for you, but since some of you insisted on getting their apartments" he says glaring at Uriah who shrinks back a little "I will just hand you your apartment key and a list of available jobs."
"I will read your names and you will come forth to get your key and a copy of the job list" I say standing on a bench to be seen by everyone. "Uriah. You are in apartment 36. Welcome" I say and Tobias hands him his key and a copy of the list. "Lynn" I continue "you are in apartment 43. Welcome." This goes on until every initiate gets his key and list with available jobs. Tobias helps me back down and we walk to our regular table were our friends already sit and started eating.
"Nice of you to wait for us" Tobias says sarcastically.
"Not my fault you decided to give the initiates their keys now" Zeke says with his mouth full of mashed potatoes.
Tobias and I sit down and we each fill our plates with potatoes and chicken wings, some pickles and take a slice of Dauntless cake, just to make sure we have it, considering Uriah sits with us. We eat our dinner avoiding talking with our friends as much as possible.
"Are you going to stay with Four?" Zeke suddenly asks.
"Yeah, why?" I ask.
"I didn't see you getting a key" he says.
"Yeah, only we are moving" I say.
"Which reminds me. Could you come and help me after supper. I need to take some measurements to give the saleslady in the furniture store tomorrow" Tobias says and Zeke agrees to help him.
"What apartment did you get?" Shauna, Zeke's girlfriend asks.
"Apartment three. It's near the offices" I say.
"That's a leader's apartment" Lynn says surprised.
"Well duh" Christina starts "she is a leader after all" pointing at me.
"Can we see it?" Marlene asks.
"Well, it's still empty. There's nothing in there. We are going to the furniture store tomorrow to order what we need. But if you want you can help us when the stuff gets here" I say.
"Sure. We will gladly help you" Shauna says smiling.
"Just tell us when and we will come and help you guys" Christina says.
"Thank you, that's really nice of you."
"Can we gentlemen come too or is it just the ladies" Zeke asks putting on a pouty face.
"I thought that was implied when Shauna offered" Tobias says to Zeke.
"Hey. She's not the boss of me" Zeke says offended.
"Sure I am. Unless you want to cuddle with the couch cushions?" she asks and he blushes a little. We all start laughing at their interaction.
"I will help you too" Will offers.
"So will I" says Uriah.
"Alright then. As soon as we have our stuff we will call you guys" Tobias says. "Zeke, we better get going. I want to get this done."
"Sure. See you later guys" he says to us and gives Shauna a little kiss on the lips.
Tobias gets up too and kisses me on the lips. We say goodbye and I turn my attention back to our group.
"Uriah, you shouldn't eat so much cake. You will get sick" I say when I see him take another slice.
"I never get sick from Dauntless cake" he proudly says.
"Dude, you had like three pieces already" Lynn says. "At this rate you are getting huge."
"Huh" Uriah says, putting his left hand to his chest, acting offended "are you implying I put on some weight?" he asks in a squeaky voice.
"I'm not implying. I'm telling you. You got fat. And you will get fatter." We all start laughing, but Uriah ignores us and continues eating his favorite cake.
"What jobs do you want?" Marlene asks.
"I think I will take the tattoo parlor job" Lynn says. "How about you guys?"
"I want to become a nurse" Marlene says.
"I want to train initiates" Uriah says "and become a faction ambassador."
"I want to train initiates too" Christina says "and I think I will also choose to become a faction ambassador. I don't think I would be a good fit in the control room."
We continue talking for a while but then fatigue takes over me and I yawn. I excuse myself and go back to Tobias's apartment. The walk back seems like forever and when I finally reach the door I unlock it, get inside, lock it back up and walk straight into the bedroom. I'm so tired I only take of my shoes and let myself fall on the hard mattress. I instantly fall asleep.
The next thing I know is that I'm somewhere in the city, in a place I've never been before. It's inside a building I assume. I walk around to see if I recognize something, anything, but I don't. It's dark and I suddenly feel like I'm not supposed to be here. Just then a young woman walks toward me. She looks like she has been crying. I watch her come closer and look at her clothes, trying to assess to which faction she belongs. She wears a black t-shirt and some blue pants. She also looks like she hasn't showered in a while. When she is only inches away from me she looks up and I recognize her. Myra. She is Edward's girlfriend. She left Dauntless after Edward was attacked and he had to leave.
"Myra" I call her name, but soon realize my mouth isn't making any sound. I try touching her but my hand goes right through her. Is this a dream or am I really here? I decide to follow her. Maybe I get a clue as to where I am, although I think I must be in the factionless sector. I try to keep up with her but she quickens her pace. Where is she going? And why am I here? I start running after Myra and stop when she stops in front of a tall woman. I can't see her features, but I'm guessing she is also factionless. Who else would be here? I try to get closer, but suddenly I feel a pull. I try to fight it, but then everything becomes a blur and I wake up.
"Tris, are you alright?" I hear Tobias asking me concerned.
"Tobias?" I ask, sleep thick in my voice.
"Yeah, baby, I'm here" he says caressing my cheek.
"What happened? What time is it?" I ask.
"It's past eleven. I came in and you were whining in your sleep. What were you dreaming about?" he asks genuinely concerned.
"I don't really know. I was in a building, I think in the factionless sector, and I saw Myra" I tell him.
"Myra? She is Edward's girlfriend, right?" he asks.
"Yeah, she was crying and I tried to ask her why but I couldn't make a sound. She also couldn't see me. It was strange. She then started running and I followed her. When she finally stopped a woman appeared and they started talking, but I couldn't hear anything. And then I woke up" I tell him.
"Come here" he says opening his arms for me. I let him wrap me in his arms and I breathe in his scent. I love the way he smells.
"Did you have a nice time with Zeke" I ask him after a while.
"Yeah, I did actually. And I had one beer" he says.
"Thank you."
"No problem. Come on, let's go to bed" he says.
"Yeah. I better put on my PJ's" I say and get up. I go to the dresser and get my PJ's and then go into the bathroom to change. When I come back Tobias has already changed and is currently sitting in the bed waiting for me. I crawl up beside him and snuggle close to him. He wraps his left arm around me and I put my head on his chest over his beating heart. It doesn't take long and I fall back to sleep.
I find myself again in that dark, unfamiliar building that I assume is located in the factionless sector of the city. Like before I walk around trying to find something or someone that can tell me what I'm doing here. I hear voices and instinctively hide, although I doubt anyone could see me. I don't even know if I'm here or if here is actually real or a figment of my imagination.
The voices come closer and I can hear three distinct people talking. Two men and a woman. One man sounds young and a little bit familiar, the other one is a complete stranger. The woman has a deep voice, but other than that I can't recognize anything or anyone. Maybe I am dreaming. There's no way I could verify if I am or not actually dreaming. Unless…
I try to concentrate on my mom. I start calling her in my mind over and over again until she finally answers.
"Mom?" I ask.
"Beatrice? What is wrong, sweetheart?" she asks clearly concerned.
"I don't know. I don't know if this is real or if I'm dreaming" I say whining.
"Where are you? And more importantly, are you there or did you project yourself?" she asks.
"I've projected myself. And I have no clue where I am. I think I'm in the factionless sector. In a building. It's dark and there are people here."
"How did you get there? You usually project yourself and then follow people. Did you follow someone there?"
"No. That's the thing. Last thing I remember I fell asleep and woke up here. What's happening?"
"I don't know, but we will find out. How about I come and see you tomorrow. I'm not part of the council so no one will question my absence tomorrow."
"That'll be great, but we should meet outside of Dauntless. How about that small meadow east of Abnegation. You used to take me there when my ability first showed."
"That's a good idea. Your father gave me Four's number. I will call you in the morning and ask you to come and see me. We don't want to draw attention toward us. Especially now."
"You are right. Mom?"
"Yes?"
"How can I get back home?"
"Try to concentrate on Four. He is there with you, right?" I blush at the thought of my mom knowing I'm currently in bed with my boyfriend.
"Yeah" I say in a low voice.
"Good. Concentrate on him. It should work. If not call me again" she says before adding "I love you."
"I love you too, mom."
I interrupt the connection between my mom and me and try to focus on Tobias. I remember every inch of his handsome face, every detail of his faction tattoo, every touch and every kiss. The more I focus on him the blurrier my surroundings become and suddenly I'm back in my bedroom, wrapped in Tobias's arms. I open my eyes and his lips are slightly parted and I can't help myself and kiss him lightly. When he starts kissing me back I almost regret doing it. I didn't want to wake him. He must be tired.
"You can wake me up like this every morning for the rest of our lives" he says and I feel a warmth spreading throughout my body.
"I didn't mean to wake you. I just wanted a little kiss before I fall back to sleep" I say bashfully.
"What time is it anyway?" he asks.
"No clue." He turns around and grabs his phone and looks at the time.
"It's past two" he says turning back to me. "I'm not really tired right now, if I'm completely honest" he says with a grin.
"Really?"
"Really."
"And what do you have in mind if not sleeping at this late hour?"
"Kissing you senseless" he says before crushing his mouth to mine. Our kiss is feverish and hungry and becomes more demanding by the minute. Tobias pushes me into the mattress laying almost completely over me.
He licks my bottom lip and I open my mouth for his tongue. He explores every little part of my mouth with his tongue making me yearn for more. So much more. He leaves my mouth and starts placing open-mouthed kisses along my neck, sucking and biting gently on the soft flesh. While his mouth worships my neck and collarbone his right hand runs up and down my left side. He reaches the hem of my shirt and pulls it upwards exposing my tummy and my bra covered chest. He leaves my collarbone and starts placing soft kisses on my breast without taking my bra off. He travels further south to my navel licking and sucking his way down. He then pushes lightly his tongue inside it eliciting a moan from me. His adoration set me already on fire but now as he travels even closer to my already soaked wet womanhood I feel like going mad. He suddenly stops and looks up at me, asking silently for permission. I don't know what to say. I still feel uneasy, but at the same time nothing seemed more right than this right now. I nod my head and he continues downwards. He places his hand on my pants and pulls them down, while I prop myself up and then pull my shirt over my head. I'm now lying just in my underwear in front of my boyfriend. I take deep breaths trying to calm my racing heart, but it doesn't seem to work. If anything the moment Tobias looks me up and down the pace of my heart increases so much I'm afraid it will jump out of my chest. I suddenly feel self-conscious and try to cover myself with my arms.
"Don't do that. You look so beautiful. Don't ever try to cover yourself up again" he says lovingly. I still can't understand how someone as perfect as he is likes someone like me. I'm short, I barely show any curve… I really don't get what he sees in me. But whatever it is I'm thankful that it made this happen. He bends down and captures my lips again and I wrap my arms around his neck and boldly snake my legs around his waist pulling him on top of me. We both moan at the contact and I can feel his engorged manhood pulsating underneath the fabric of his shorts. We kiss hungrily like there is no tomorrow and I can hardly breathe anymore. When air becomes an issue we stop and Tobias leans his forehead on mine and looks deep inside my eyes. This is it. It's going to happen. I thought I would be afraid. But I'm not.
Tobias seems to read my mind somehow because the next thing he asks surprises and excites me at the same time.
"Are you sure?" he asks. YES I shout in my mind, but only nod enthusiastically. He smiles and pulls back a little. He takes his shirt off and moves to his shorts. He gets rid of them in one swift movement leaving him in his birth suit. Oh my god. He looks absolutely gorgeous. I try to swallow past the lump in my throat but find it really difficult. I let my eyes travel up and down his body and I stop at his pulsating member. The lack of light makes it difficult to see properly, but from what I can tell he is big. Really big. At least eight inches. How will that ever fit me?
He leans back down, covering me with his body but making sure to not rest his entire weight on me and starts to kiss me again. He explores my mouth, then travels along my neck down to my collarbone, presses open-mouthed kisses here and there, licks, bites und sucks gently, until he reaches my bra covered breasts. I move to unhook my bra and slide in down my arms and toss it to the floor. Tobias captures one breast with his hand, kneading it, while he sucks on the other one. The sucking combined with the gentle and yet firm touch of his hand makes my bodyheat increase rapidly and I feel like the flames of passion will soon consume me. I arch my back needing to feel more of Tobias. Oh my god. I want him. He switches breasts and sucks on the other one, while his hand kneads my other breast. I don't know how long I can take this torture anymore. I feel like I'm going crazy. When Tobias's hot mouth travels further south to my navel I think I will completely loose it. By now I've moaned and groaned and called out his name so many times and probably so loud that I think the entire compound must know what we are up to. Tobias leaves my navel and finally reaches my now completely drenched panties. He places his head between my thighs and if I wouldn't be so completely focused on his wonderful mouth on my body I would totally be embarrassed by now. He places soft kisses to the inside of my right thigh, then my left, then he returns to my right kissing further down to my right knee, then repeats his actions on the left leg, then he kisses down to my right foot and from my right foot he moves to my left kissing his way up to my womanhood.
When he puts his hands on my panties he looks up at me and I nod in agreement. He removes my panties quickly tossing them on the floor along with the rest of our clothes and kneels down in front of the bed, his face mere inches away from my womanhood.
"You smell so good, Tris" he says and I feel a deep blush color my face. I want to say something but my breath is taken away when he places a gentle kiss to my entrance. I moan loudly and it seems to encourage him because the next thing I know is he starts licking my wet entrance pushing his tongue inside every now and then, while circling my sensitive clit with his thumb. I gasp for air when I feel one of his fingers slowly entering me. He remains still for a while before starting a slow in and out pace with his finger, never removing his mouth from my womanhood.
"Faster" I moan and he obliges. "Quicker" I moan and he obliges again. "More." He adds a second finger and I feel him stretch me more but I don't mind. I welcome the sensation. He resumes his quick in and out movement and I can feel something building inside me, a foreign yet wanted sensation. I thrust my hips against his hand keeping the steady rhythm he started and feel a wave of pure pleasure wash over me as I cry out his name. He continues thrusting his fingers inside me, letting me ride out my orgasm until I fall backwards panting heavily. I feel him remove his fingers from inside me and kiss my entrance one last time before crawling up to lie next to me. I look at him and he has a cocky grin plastered on his face, obviously proud with himself for making me come for the first time. He kisses my mouth, thrusting his tongue deep inside my mouth and I can taste myself. It's a foreign taste that I can't describe, not bad, just unusual. We kiss for a while until we need air again and we pull apart.
"That was… wow" I say.
"You enjoyed it?" he asks.
"I didn't just enjoy it. It was incredible. I've never felt this way before" I say honestly. "Where did you learn to do that?"
"I had two years of listening to the guys telling everyone who wanted to listen what kind of studs they are in bed. I heard one or two things, but never had a chance to try them out until you came along. Don't worry, I've never talked to them about us, not like that, and I never will. What happens between you and me stays between you and me. But after we had our heated make out session yesterday I realized that even if we waited a while longer before we actually make love I should probably read a thing or two to make sure you are comfortable and ready" he tells me and I can't believe how thoughtful he is.
"That's so sweet of you" I say and kiss him again, this time more gentle. "That was amazing. Thank you. Now lie back" I say. He looks at me curiously. "You made me feel great, now it's my turn to do the same to you."
