Heylo, people. Sorry I haven't updated in a while. Been kind of busy...and as for the above disclaimer, I got a review saying I shouldn't use 'our Savior's name in vain.' I wanted to apologize for any offensive remarks I might have in here. I'm not trying to be offensive. So yeah, sorry.

The updates might slow a bit from here, because tomorrow is my last day of break, and then it's back to *groans* my normal schedule of: school, skating, homework, bed. Repeat. Maybe add ten or fifteen minutes of writing in there. On weekends, it's: 6:15am: up, 7am: skating, 1pm: home, 1:15pm: lunch, 1:30pm: homework/studying, 7pm: dinner, 8pm: writing, 10pm: bed. Repeat. So basically five hours of writing per week. Sad but true: the life of a student. Anyway, sorry about my ranting, and here you go:

"Well..." Shauna begins. She hiccups and a tear slips out. "It's Zeke. He...he told me he doesn't want me staying with him for a few days."

As much as I try to be a girl, I am at a loss as to why this is so bad. "Did you two break up?"

"No! He just randomly asked me to go stay somewhere else for a few days. He said something about being sorry but needing the apartment until Monday. And then he told me to pack and leave." Shauna is struggling to keep it together now.

"Um. Okay. Just, uh, why is this such a big deal? Couldn't it be for a good thing?" I ask, trying to placate her.

She frowns, considering. "Yeah. I guess. But what if he's thinking about breaking up with me? I really like Zeke. Maybe I love him. But I definitely don't want to break up with him. What do I do, Tris?"

I swallow. "Well, you can stay with Four and me - on the couch - until Monday, I guess. And I'll get Four to talk to Zeke and see what's going on, okay? For now, why don't you just take a nap? I'll wake you up when or if anything happens," I offer, edging off my bed.

Shauna nods and sucks air in, trying to calm down. I hug her and hand her a box of tissues before scurrying out as quickly as possible, shutting the door behind me.

Tobias chuckles at the look on my face. "What's up, Tris?"

"Zeke's being an idiot," I reply. "Can you go find out why he kicked Shauna out for the weekend?"

From his seat on the couch, Tobias chuckles again. "He's being an idiot? I thought he already was one full-time. And, yeah, I can talk to him, but not until my lunch break, which is in about two hours."

I smile back and come sit on his lap. "Thanks, Tobias." Then I sigh. "You know, I'm really bad at being a girl. I had - and still have - no idea why this is such a big deal. They didn't break up, and there's - at least, so far - no reason to believe Zeke is doing something bad, other than not giving her a reason for kicking her out for a few days. It's probably something he wants to do with the apartment. To fix it up or something."

Tobias is silent for a minute, thinking. His arms wrap around my waist and he leans his chin on my shoulder, setting his laptop down. "Well, how would you feel if I kicked you out for the weekend?"

I consider this. "The main feeling would probably be confusion. And a little bit of worry, like you were going to break up with me. But...knowing you, you'd probably just come straight out and break up with me. Calmly. Honestly. I'd want that, if you ever broke up with me," I reply.

Tobias kisses behind my ear. "I'm never going to break up with you, Tris. I think I want to marry you." At my expression, he continues, chuckling, "Not yet, Tris. I'm pretty certain neither of us are ready for that kind of commitment. But...someday."

I nod slowly. "Okay. And...I think I'd say yes," I mimic him. Then I turn around on his lap so I'm straddling him. A small groan escapes his lips as I move around a bit, and I laugh lightly. Tobias glares at me.

"God, Tris!" he exclaims, face red. I just laugh harder and lay my head on his chest. Tobias sighs and puts his arms around me, rubbing my back lightly.

Suddenly I lift my head and kiss him. He kisses me back, surprised. I run my hands through his hair and he puts his on my hips.

"Geez, Four," a male voice mutters. "You can't keep your hands off her, can you?"

We break apart. "Zeke," Tobias grumbles. "What are you doing here? How did you get into my apartment? Do I need my lock or door replaced?"

Zeke chuckles, but his face still has a hint of darkness on it. "Man, you gave me a key. When you first got the place. And...is Shauna here?"

I groan. "Yeah, Zeke. She's asleep in our bed. What did you do?"

"Well, I'm assuming you know I kind of asked her to find a place to stay for the weekend. And I didn't exactly present it in the nicest way -" Tobias scoffs and I snort - "and she ran away crying. But I just wanted to do something nice for her, so I'm remodeling the place. My place. I even got Eric to let me have the apartment one over, as well, so I'm knocking out the walls and painting and getting new furniture and everything. I didn't want her to be there for two reasons: one, the dust and fumes would be bad for her and the - and two, I wanted to surprise her. Can one of you...when she wakes up, could you tell her I'm sorry and I didn't mean to hurt her and not to worry?" Zeke looks sad and worried.

"Yeah," I speak up. "Yeah, I will. And Zeke...is Shauna pregnant?"

The look on his face is so funny that I wish I had a camera. "No! Why would you think that?"

"Because you said 'her and the -'" Tobias replies for me. I can tell, though he's hidden it well, that he's amused at Zeke's face, too.

Zeke laughs. "Yeah, there's a kid, but it isn't ours. Shauna's parents adopted a little boy, Carson, and they want us - well, need us - to watch him for a few days. They're going to this hotel thing in Amity for some sort of celebration for some of their friends." He shakes his head. "Doesn't sound too Dauntless to me, but...anyway, when I said 'the' I was going to say 'kid.' Carson. The kid. He's seven. And, before you ask, I wasn't hiding it from you, we were just going to tell everyone at truth or dare." And Zeke leaves.

I kiss Tobias one more time and clamber off his lap. "I'm going to go check on Shauna, and then take a shower, okay?"

Tobias nods and picks his laptop up again. I walk silently into our bedroom. Shauna is sound asleep on our bed, so I grab some clothes and head into the bathroom. My shower is quick, and then I grab my sketchbook to pass the time until she wakes up, or Tobias gets off for lunch. I quickly look through my other, older, drawings. I haven't really been drawing much recently. My drawings depict my true feelings.

There's one of Tobias, when he was climbing the Ferris wheel with me. The fear is present in his eyes, but love and determination shine through it. And he has a small smile on his face. It shows his love for me, and mine for him.

There's one of Christina, leaning forward, excited. Her eyes are lit up, and her smile is contagious. She looks like she's in the middle of telling a joke. She looks happy, and it shows our friendship.

There's one of Caleb. Caleb the Abnegation brother I used to know, who was always looking out for me. But his Erudite is there, too. It represents my slow acceptance of him.

Of course, there's one of my parents. They look...selfless. They're obviously in love, but they're reaching their hands out to help someone. It's everything I loved about Abnegation.

There's one of all of us, playing truth or dare. All of my friends. And Peter, Eric, Max and Lauren. I think it's while Peter was doing something stupid, because everyone looks carefree and happy and amused, except Peter. Even Eric is cracking a smile. It shows both our friendship and Dauntlessness as well as the light in everyone.

The last one is, of course, of Tobias and I. It's of our first kiss, in the Chasm. It shows the passionate side of Tobias and I as well as the lovingness. I love this one, and I quietly tear it out.

But Tobias hears. His head pops up, and he sees the paper in my hands. "What's that?"

I walk over the the couch and sit next to him. I hand him the picture and stare at my feet as he looks at it. Tobias stares at it for a little while, and then, suddenly, his hand is on my chin, pulling my face to his. He kisses me with more love than I thought imaginable.

"Tris, I...it's amazing," he whispers, his eyes happier than ever in a rare show of true emotion. I put my hand on his face and smile.

"I..." I trail off. "I love you, Tobias Zachariah Eaton. And...this picture really shows us."

Tobias looks at me as if he's seeing me for the first time. "I love you, too, Beatrice Grace Prior. More than you know."

PAGE BREAK! (Sorry can't do a real one on an iPad)

For the next five hours - we skip lunch - Tobias and I sit next to each other on the couch, me curled into him, drawing, and him typing away on his computer. I draw Tobias' face after he saw the picture - the complete happiness. And that is exactly how we are feeling right now.

Sometimes I wonder how Tobias and I almost never fight. We...we never really even argue, and even then, it usually ends up light-hearted, with us insulting each other lamely. There's almost never trouble in our paradise (A/N: I took that from Nerdigirl's review. Thanks, Nerdigirl! I liked your wording...hope you don't mind that I borrowed it).

Just then, Shauna wakes up and walks out, rubbing her eyes. "What time is it?"

I peek at Tobias' computer screen. "Three oh nine. How are you feeling?"

She takes a deep breath. "Definitely more...calm. Did you talk to Zeke, Four?"

I jump in instead of Tobias, who is already transforming from the happy and carefree Tobias I saw just a few minutes ago to the person he shows everyone but me. "Zeke came and talked to us. He said he was really sorry but that he's working on something - a surprise for you. He said he didn't want you and Carson there while he was working on it. Speaking of which, when does Carson get home from Lower Levels?"

"You know about Carson?" Shauna asks, surprised. At my nod, she continues, "Umm, okay. And at three thirty. He should be back here by three forty five."

Tobias takes the short silence as an opportunity to add his two cents. "Don't be too pissed at Zeke, okay? He's trying to do something nice. Just...he was trying to do the right thing. I know he did it in the wrong way but he had the right idea."

Shauna nods slowly. "I'm going to...I'm going to go pick up Car, and then find Mar. I'll stay with her over the weekend."

"No!" I insert quickly. "Stay with T-Four and I. Or Will and Chris. Not with Mar."

She gives me a strange look. "Why?"

"Because you'll be too near Zeke's place," Tobias answers.

"How does he do that?" Shauna asks. "Say what you're going to say, I mean."

I glance at my boyfriend, who's smiling smugly. His eyes betray him, though: he's a little embarrassed. "He knows me too well. And we think in the same way."

"Can you do it for him?"

"Yes," I answer before Tobias can get a word in. He shoots me a half serious glare. To anyone else, it would look like he's angry, but I can see he's actually amused.

Shauna watches us for a few seconds, and then sinks to the ground, frowning. "How do you guys do it? You never fight, really."

Tobias and I look into each other's eyes for a few more seconds. "We do fight." Tobias pulls me closer to him. "But we've learned to understand what's important and what's not, mostly. So we let the little things go, and when we do fight, we just...can't be serious, for some reason."

I lean closer to Tobias. "To anyone besides me, that would have made no sense."

Tobias chuckles. "You're probably right," he concedes, matching my low tone.

Shauna looks confused. "What?"

"Four meant that we do fight, but we try to prioritize - not make mountains out of molehills. And when we do fight, it's more of a debate, after which we joke," I translate. Beside me, Tobias nods.

Shauna's mouth forms an "o," and she frowns. "So letting the little stuff go works?"

We nod.

Shauna doesn't respond, but she stands and looks at Tobias' screen (probably for the time) before walking out, a thoughtful look on her face.

I pull Tobias' laptop away from him and look into his eyes. "Tobias," I start quietly. "How do you do it?"

He knows what I'm talking about. "I hide my emotions easily because of my father. " Tobias takes a breath. "When I cried out or even winced, the beating became worse. So I learned to hide it. Them."

I put my hand on his back and rub it. His face relaxes a little, and I kiss the line of his jaw. Tobias kisses my cheek and grabs his laptop again. I pick up my sketchbook and begin to draw.

Suddenly, the door bursts open. "Hands in the air!" someone shouts. "Four get your freaking hands in the air! Move away from the girl!"

Hope you enjoyed it...and sorry about the cliffhanger. Thanks for all the reviews, people, but more would make me even happier...*smiles evilly*
