Chapter 51:

D POV

Zeke and I dropped off the kids and the dogs at Mark and Nadi's apartment a little while ago. Zeke was taking me somewhere and he wont tell me where. He knows how much I hate being oblivious but at least with him, I know I'm safe. We are in the train right now just waiting to get to our destination. I was in his arms just waiting; I know we have to talk about my pregnancy. I know that he knows but I don't think that the thought has sunk in yet. I look up at him and see his deep brown eyes just looking at me.

"So, about the baby…" I say and he begins to smile. "What do you think? I mean, a second child…"

"Lane and Eric are having two at the same time." He says and flashes his grin which always makes me smile. "How far along are you?"

"Not far. Maybe like six weeks."

"Why didn't you take me to make sure? D, sometimes I feel like you don't trust me enough."

"What? I trust you more than anyone else in the world. You took care of Lucas with me and he was my pride and joy."

"But I was the one who let him die." He says and I'm shocked. I never really asked how he felt after his death. He was always taking care of me but really ,we should've been taking care of each other. I touch his cheek and he looks to the open cart door which shows the moving city.

"Is that what you think? That I blame you for Lucas' death?" I ask and he still doesn't look at me. "Zeke…"

"I don't think you blame me. I blame myself. He was my son and I couldn't protect him, he tried protecting me." He said and got up. He started to pace the train cart and he wouldn't calm down. "I watched the security footage. He was crawling towards me to protect me when I should've been doing that for him. I was impulsive and reckless and it almost cost me my life. But it cost him his. He saw me get shot and he must've been so scared. He got shot because of me."

"Zeke!" I yell standing up. I walk over to him and stop his pacing my pulling him into a hug. "You didn't kill him. Chelsea did and she paid for it. It's time to move on from it." He stops moving and it takes about a minute for it to register that I was hugging him. He puts his arms around me and we finally calm down.

"He would've been eight in a few weeks." Zeke says and then kisses my forehead. About ten minutes later, we get up and I know exactly where we are. We're at the Hancock building. He's taking me zip lining. I look up at him and all he can do is smile. "Happy anniversary babe." He says and I kiss him and we jump.

Rei POV

Elena and I were sitting at the table in the pit. Today's special was pizza and not the crappy kind. Why does dauntless have the best food? As I ate my pizza, Elena introduced me to her friends; Tessa, Tim and Anova. I have yet to meet the infamous fifth member, Justin. The first forty five minutes, we ate but the last fifteen, Elena and I went for a walk. She told me about her childhood with her dad and the books she likes and the movies she watches. Surprisingly she isn't one of those dauntless girls who exercise for fun, in fact she hates it. She only does those things when she has to because they take too much energy which, as she put it, "could be better invested somewhere else like reading or crying over a movie." I think it's nice how open she is about her feelings. I get the sense that her life is an open book for everyone to read. I like that about her. Now we moved onto the subject of my life.

"Well, after my dad died, it was just me and my sister because my mom is a pain in the ass and my eldest sister is no different from her." I say as we walk hand in hand down a hallway.

"What happened to them?"

"Well, my mother did something terrible, but this particular one, she got caught and now she's factionless. My sister is now the new leader of Erudite and my sister who I got along with defected two years ago to dauntless."

"Did you find her yet?" She asks as we come to a halt in front of the dauntless born training room. "I mean, do you want to find her?" She may think that I pushed her up against the wall, but I'm not as cool as she thinks I am. I tripped and it just so happens that we were in the right position for her to think it was intentional.

"Yeah, well actually, she found me. The day of my aptitude test, she was one of the dauntless volunteers. Turns out after just one year here, she's married and pregnant, with twins."

"Wait, you said she was a dauntless volunteer? And pregnant with twins?"

"Yeah? Do you know her? Her name is…" I begin to say but am interrupted by the door to the training room opening to see none other than my older sister Lane and her husband Eric acting as a second head. "Lane."

"Rei! I thought I heard your voice out here. Come in and say hi to everyone." She says pulling me inside which also makes me pull Elena inside with me. The training room looks no different from the transfers training room. I see all of her friends; Christina, Will, Marlene and Uriah by the sparring mat, and Four and Tris throwing knives at targets. "Guess who I found outside! I told you I'm not crazy."

"In my defense I told you that your hormones might be messing with you, not that you were crazy." Eric said while throwing his hands up in surrender. "Hey Rei."

"Hey Eric and everyone." I say loud enough for everyone to hear. "This is Elena."

"I know." Marlene says walking towards us to give me a hug. She's just the person to always greet you with a hug which is really nice. "How's training going?"

"It's going. I've only had half a day so it's not too bad." I say. "Where's D? I would've thought that she would be here to scare the hell out of some initiates." I say and look at Elena. She is really quiet when normally she is really loud. Something's wrong, but I know that she wont tell me now.

"Well, I don't think you know." Lane begins as she sits down on the floor. "Last year, her son died."

"Don't sugar coat it Lane. He was murdered by that bitch." Four says in his serious tone. He threw a knife and I hit dead center.

"His name was Lucas. After he died, D never really wanted to do this anymore. It's just a reminder that her son will never get to do it." Tris says. "He was only seven, well, eight this year." I look at everyone and they look sad. I didn't know Lucas but I can tell that he was loved by everyone In this room.

"Oh crap, I forgot something in the pit." I say breaking the silence. "I'm gonna get it. I'll see you back in the training room." I pull Elena with me and start walking towards the pit. For a minute or so, then I stop her and push her against the wall, this time intentional. She doesn't make eye contact with me which worries me. "What happened to you in there?" I ask pushing her chin up slightly. Our lips meet and do not part for what seemed like ages. Her lips were so soft and the kisses were passionate. I finally release my lips from hers and I rest my forehead on hers.

"Weren't you supposed to get something from the pit?" She asks and touches my cheek. I still don't open my eyes, I don't want that moment to fade that quickly. I want that moment to remain in my mind forever. My first kiss. I don't think she's supposed to know that she was my first, but who cares?

"I lied. I saw that you changed when we went in there. Tell me what happened. Why did you change when you saw Lane? Do you not like her or something?" I ask finally releasing the urge to hold onto the moment.

"My problem isn't with Lane. She's a good person."

"Then what is it?" I ask kissing her forehead. I look at her face and it is a mixture of fear and sadness. "You can trust me." Then I hear shouting and running. I turn my head towards the direction of the noise and it is the initiates running towards the training room. I guess we're gonna be late soon.

"I'll tell you at dinner." She says and I respond with a stern look. "I promise." She kisses me on the cheek and pulls my hand so we're now walking towards the training room as well. We get to the transfers training room and I kiss her goodbye. I then disappear into the room where quite possibly I could get hit with an air born knife.

Eric POV

Lane is pissed at me and I understand why and it's all my fault. It's only a matter of time before Elena tells Rei about my past. Its one thing to accept my past and be oblivious to it, but its another thing to accept it and experience it first hand. I can feel Lane glaring at me and I don't know how to respond. All I know is no happy wife is no happy life.

"I…"I begin to say but am immediately interrupted by Lane's yelling.

"My God Eric! What is Rei going to think of you know. You know that she's gonna tell him!"

"If she does, she has a right to. I killed her father and that's not something you easily forget," I say but then remember that all of our friends are in the same room as us as we're arguing about this. I turn my head and see them all giving us the "What the Fuck" looks.

"What am I supposed to do when he wants to kill you?" Lane asks pulling my attention back to her. "I mean, you're my husband, but he's my brother."

"Wait…" Tris begins. "Who did you kill?"

"Elena's Dad. About three years ago." I say and they don't seem surprised. I mean, they knew who I was before Lane, hell, most of them saw it first hand. "I was working under Jeanine and she told me I had to kill him so I did."

"You didn't question her orders?" Four asks

"No." I say and they all stare at me. "You know who I was before and that me didn't question anything as long as I got to kill. I'm not going to bullshit with any of you and pretend it never happened. I did it and now I'm paying for it."

"Eric, you have to apologize to her." Marlene says.

"Would you listen?" Lane asks. "My mother killed my father and she never said soory because she knew it wouldn't make a difference. If Eric apologized to her, she'd probably punch him in the face. An 'I'm sorry' wont make a difference and it sure as hell wont bring back her father."

"Do you have a better option Lane? This is your family, what are you going to do about it?" Christina asks.

"We're going to see what he does." I say and walk out of the room. I walk into the transfers training room to set up for the rest of the day.

Zeke POV

D and I went Zip lining and now we're on our way back to dauntless. She lays in my arms asleep and now I can just get some quiet with my future baby. I rubbed her stomach and just thought about the possibilities.

"You know baby, your mom and I are some strong minded people, so when that happens you can go to your aunts and uncles for help on how to deal with us because they have been with us for a long time. And if you need help with your homework, ask your uncle Eric and your aunt Lane. They're pretty smart, they came from Erudite. If you need advice with relationships, don't come to your mom and me because we are the only people we ever dated." I say and smile. "But with any other problems, you can come to us for anything. We're not the smartest people but we are the most dauntless people. Your mom and I are dauntless through and through."

"Your dad is the bravest person I know." D says waking up. She looks up and smiles at me with her amazing smile. I kiss her and we sit there for a while just talking to our baby. I look up an I see that this was the train where we have to jump onto the room and then onto the net.

"I'm sorry. I forgot that this is the one where we have to jump." I apologize.

""Zeke, I'm pregnant not paralyzed. I can jump onto a net." She says and smiles. She stands up and I take her hand. "1…2…" She says and then we jump. We both land on our feet and look at each other. I hug her from behind and we walk to the net we get onto the ledge and jump.

"That was fun…" I say and look at the time which is 5:30. "We have time to drop in on the initiates, if you're up to it."

"Yeah." She says. "Let's go." I take her hand and lead her to the training rooms. She looks sad for some reason.

"D, why did you really not want to train the initiates?" I ask which catches her attention. "I mean, is it because of Lucas." She lets out a sigh and stops walking.

"Somewhat." She says and takes my hand and puts it on her stomach. "This baby will get to go some many things that Lucas didn't. This baby will be allowed to chose the life he or she wants. Lucas didn't. Everyone in those rooms will get to do things that Lucas will never do. I don't hate them, I envy them. With me being pregnant, I might throw one of them off the chasm if they are obnoxious and taking advantage of their chance to live the life that they chose." I look at her and she's right. I know D will throw at least one of them off the ledge and not even regret it. I touch her cheek and she looks up at me.

"Okay." I say and start walking hand in hand with her. We reach the doors to the transfers training room and open it.
