After my hands are all cleaned up, I sit on the couch while Tobias makes me some tea.
He comes in a moments later with two mugs in his hands. I take one from him and lightly so on it. "We need to talk." I tell him after a moment.
"What about?" He asks.
"Tobias, I don't want to loose you, and I'm afraid that if we keep fighting, one of us will finally lose it, and we won't have this anymore." I gesture to the two of us. "I love you so, so much, and I don't want to spend the rest of my life fighting with you."
"I know you don't Tris. I don't want to either, but what do you suggest we do? Emma is gone."
"I know that." I pause for a moment, "Marlene said maybe another baby would help."
"Tris-" Tobias starts.
"Will you just think about it? I know that another child won't replace the one we lost, but it may help."
He nods and pulls me into a hug. "I love you." He whispers I to my neck.
"I love you too."
Christina POV
"Mar, do you think I am depressed?" I ask Marlene as we walk down the corridor to my apartment.
"Are you kidding me? Christina, you have been anything but depressed for the past eight months." She says as I unlock the front door. "What makes you think you're depressed?"
"I don't know. I guess what Tris said earlier kind of got to me." I walk into the kitchen and grab a couple bottles of water from the mini fridge, then walk back to Marlene and take a seat next to here on the couch. "She's right you know, I'm still not over Will. I keep having nightmares about what could have happened."
"What? I thought those stopped months ago."
I shake my head, "It's even worse since I have no idea what really happened to him. He's all I ever think about, no matter what I do. I don't know how to make it stop."
Marlene wipes a tear from my face that I didn't know was there. "What was the last thing you remember of him? What was he acting like when he and Emma disappeared?"
I think for a moment, "Now that I think about it, he was acting kind of strange. A few days before everything happened, he kept asking me about Tris and Four and Emma." I gasp, "Do you think he could have something to do with Emma's kid napping?"
"I don't know, I mean it's a possibility, but why would Will do something like that?"
"I don't know. Do you think we should tell Four and Tris?"
"It might be a good idea." Marlene says, then we get up and walk over to Four and Tris' apartment.
Tris POV
Tobias holds me in his arms for a moment, then there is a knock at the door which separates us.
I get up and walk over to the door. When I pull it open, Christina and Marlene are standing there.
"What's up guys?" I ask.
"Tris, we need to talk to you and Four. It's about Emma and Will." Chris says.
I open the door wider and they walk inside. We walk over to the couch and sit down. Me next to Tobias. Christina next to me, and Marlene in the small chair next to the couch.
"So what do you you guys need to talk about?" I question after a moment.
"Mar and I were talking earlier, and Will and Emma came up." Christina pauses for a second. "I think Will could have something to do with Emma's kid napping."
"Are you sure?" Tobias chimes in.
"Well, I don't know for sure, but just before it happened, he became kind of obsessed with the three of you."
"Okay, even Will did have something to do with this, it still doesn't help us find Emma." I say.
"I know, but I just wanted to make sure you guys knew." She says, then her and Marlene stand up and leave.
When they are gone, I turn to Tobias, "How are we supposed to find her?" I ask Tobias.
"I don't know." He states.
We sit there for a while before I stand up and grab my jacket. "Where are you going?" Tobias asks me.
"I feel like paying a visit to my mother. Do you want to come?" He nods, and we head out to the train tracks.
The train is just rounding the corner when we get out there. I start running, Tobias following close behind, and jump on the moving train.
We sit there for about twenty minutes until its time to jump. I look at Tobias as we stand in the doorway. He grabs my hand and we jump.
The sun is slowing disappearing over the horizon as we walk down the abandoned Abnegation street. I quickly find my old, plain home and knock on the door.
"Beatrice?" My mother asks as she opens the door to see me and Tobias.
"Hi mom." I say with a small smile.
"Please, come inside." She opens the door wider so Tobias and I can walk in. "Who is this?" She asks as we walk into the living room to sit down.
"This is my boyfriend, Four." I tell her. I take a seat on the small couch and look around a bit. Absolutely nothing has changed. "Where's Dad?" I ask.
"He had a meeting with the other council members in Candor, so he won't be home until later." Just then, I start to hear crying coming from up stairs. I give my mother a confused look. "Will you excuse me for a moment?"
I nod and she leaves to go up stairs. We sit there for what seems like forever until she walks back down stairs with a baby in her arms. How could my mother have a baby I think. She is way too old for that, unless she is baby sitting for someone.
"Beatrice, Four, this is-" I cut her off as she comes closer.
"Emma?!" I jump out of my seat and rush over to my mother and take the child out of her arms. "Oh my God, I thought I would never see you again." I child my long lost daughter close to me as tears if joy fall down my face. Before I know it, Tobias is standing by my side, speechless.
"Beatrice, how do you know this child?" My mother asks, breaking me from my thoughts.
"This is my daughter." I say looking at Emma. God, she has changed so much in only one year.
"How do you have a daughter? You are only seventeen."
"It's a long story, but the more important question is, why did you a child?"
"I didn't take her in if that is what you at wondering. Marcus has me watch her while he is gone at work." At the the sound of his name, Tobias and I both clench out fists in anger.
"How did he get her?" Tobias asks.
"He claimed that a factionless woman gave her to him, but I clearly see now that that isn't the truth."
"Of course it's not. Why would I give up my child to someone as terrible as Marcus? And I most certainly am not factionless." I spit out Marcus' name like venom.
"Well, they should be back soon, and I don't want you two here when Marcus arrives. Especially you Tobias."
"How do you know my real name?" Tobias is shocked.
"Never mind that. Both of you need to leave, now!"
My mother pushes us out the door and we run to the train. I carefully jump on, still holding onto my daughter for dear life and never wanting to let her out of my sight again.
