I'm back! I know it's been more than a month since I updated but I am excited to get this chapter started. I know you all have been waiting for the wedding. So hopefully by the time this chapter is done it'll meet your expectations. I've decided to end this story soon. I'm planning on adding an epilogue. I don't know yet what my next story could be but I might wanna explore other pairings/couples within the Divergent world. I know hardcore fans love FourTris but I want to try some others, even the "weird" ones (by weird I mean: guy/guy, girl/girl etc) if that's okay. Let me know what you think.


Tris POV

I wake up the next morning with a smile on my face. Today I get to marry the love of my life. When my parents died, I didn't know what the future held for me, what I wanted to do in my personal and professional life. I needed them here with me to give me advice and guide me where I needed to go. But maybe they really have always been there for me. Maybe somehow they are the reason I met and fell in love with Tobias. Like they sent him to me.

I get out of bed and head to the bathroom and turn on the shower. The warm water calms me. I'm not at all nervous to get married but I am nervous that I'll fall in my high heels or mess up my vows. There is so much I wanna say that it was hard putting it into words on a piece of paper. My love for Tobias is more than words can describe.

I put on comfy, casual clothes before exiting the bathroom. I use my towel to gently dry my hair. When I come out of the bathroom I see Christina coming up the stairs. When she gets to the top she smiles and pulls me in for a hug.

"Big day today." She states.

I nod, smiling. Suddenly I find myself unable to speak for fear of getting emotional. Seeing my eyes water Christina pulls me in for another hug.

"I'm so happy for you, Tris. You found an amazing guy. I'm sure your parents would've loved Tobias."

"Me too. And thank you for everything, Christina. Without my mom I wasn't sure I could go through with all of this so to have your support means a lot to me."

"Your parents would be so proud of who you've become and who you've chosen to spend your life with. I have no doubt they'll be here with you today, watching over you."

"I know. It's as if I can feel their presence here with me."

She smiles. "Let's get you ready. The girls and I will make sure you are the most beautiful bride."

After having a light breakfast someone arrives to do my hair and makeup. When it's time to put my dress on, I get a little emotional. One way that I am honoring my parents is by wearing some of my mother's jewelry. She didn't have a lot but what she did have was very special to her. She always told me that eventually all of her jewelry would be mine that I could pass down to my daughter when the time comes but I didn't I'd be using it this soon.

The photographer arrives soon after. I myself made sure that it wouldn't take a long time for all the girls to get their hair and makeup done, especially Christina, but they know that I'm the focus of today so they were ready in a decent amount of time.

I thought a lot on whether I wanted a church wedding or not. I didn't grow up going to church every Sunday, but my parents still made sure that Caleb and I knew what religion was and what it meant to be part of one. It'd be easy to say I've given up on believing anything when I lost my parents but that's not entirely true. I know that they wouldn't want me to live like that. While I know I will never get the answer to why they were taken from me, I firmly believe that they aren't completely gone. Tobias told me this once too about Marcus. He doesn't believe that Marcus is now just a body decaying underground. So ultimately I chose not to have a church wedding. Tobias didn't mind and understood my reasoning. We both agreed that as long as we get married, that's all that matters. We spent a good amount of time looking and as soon as we found the location we both knew that we didn't wanna get married anywhere else. It's a beautiful outdoor location at resort that includes a hotel on the property where we will hold the reception and also spending our wedding night. The weather is perfect and I know this day will be perfect.

My excitement grows as the girls and I pile into the limo taking us to the resort. We are immediately shown to a private room. A few minutes later there's a knock on the door. Christina opens it and Evelyn is standing on the other side. She walks towards me and gives me a gentle hug.

"You look beautiful, Tris."

"Thank you, Evelyn. I'm grateful that you're here today."

"Thank you. I am too. I know you and Tobias will make each other happy for a very long time."

I smile. "You've helped me so much with planning all this and your presence here today makes the absence of my parents sting a little less. I'm glad that you're here for Tobias and for me."

"I wouldn't wanna be anywhere else. I'm thankful to have my son back."

I don't say anything, only smile.

Well, I better get back to Tobias. Caleb is on his way down. He should be here any minute."

I nod and she leaves. A few minutes later there's another knock on the door. Caleb enters and smiles when he sees me.

"Beatrice, you look amazing."

"Thank you, Caleb. You don't look too bad yourself."

He smirks at me as I adjust his tie. "I am so happy for you and very proud of you. Mom and Dad would've been too."

"I wish they were here."

"Me too, but we have each other, right?"

"Absolutely. I'll always be your little sister."

"Well, let's get you married then, but before I go I have something to deliver to you."

He pulls a folded piece of paper out of his suit jacket. I take it before Christina hands him the envelope sitting on the table. He replaces the one he gave me with that one inside his suit jacket.

He gives me a hug. "See you in a bit. Don't be nervous, everything will be perfect. I love you, sis."

"Love you too, Caleb. And thank you."

As soon as he leaves I sit at the table and unfold the paper in my hand and recognize Tobias' handwriting. I begin to read.

To my beautiful Tris,

Our day is finally here. I love you more than words in this letter and in my vows can say. I can't wait to see you. Today we begin our own piece of forever together. I can't wait to call you my wife.

I love you,

Tobias

I gently dab my eyes before the tears fall. I can't believe this amazing man will be my husband soon. I love him so much.

I put the letter in my bag that holds my extra clothes for tomorrow and Susan takes it to our suite for me before heading down to the ceremony.

There's soon another knock on the door and in walk Amar and Jack. I stand and smooth my dress, knowing it's time to go.

"It's time, Tris. Are you ready?"

I take a deep breath and smile. "Yes."

I take both of their arms. All the girls walk ahead of us as we head out to the courtyard. Christina hands me my bouquet and squeezes my hand before taking her place in front of me as we get to the double doors. The doors open and Marlene, Cara, Shauna and Christina begin to walk through. When Christina is inside, the doors close.

I take a deep breath and look from Amar to Jack who both give me an encouraging smile. The door finally opens again and I don't look anywhere except straight ahead. There he stands looking as handsome as ever with a huge smile on his face. All the nervousness within me melts away because I know I don't need to be nervous about marrying the man I love.

As we get closer I can see that Tobias' eyes are watery. Mine are a little as well. Finally we stop. I turn to Amar then Jack as they hug me and then they each hug Tobias. Tobias holds his hand out to me and I take it. We face each other as the minister starts speaking.

"Good afternoon and welcome. We are gathered here today to witness the marriage of Tobias and Beatrice. We celebrate with them the love they have discovered in each other and support their decision to commit themselves to one another. Who gives the bride in marriage to this man?"

"I do, as her brother." Caleb says.

"And we do as well, in the place of her father." Amar says, gesturing to himself and Jack.

"Very well," The minister says. "Today Tobias and Beatrice are taking the first step of their new beginning; their new life together. The ability and desire for one human being to love another is perhaps the most precious and fulfilling gift that has bedn entrusted to us. It is an all consuming task, a lifelong endeavor - the journey we've been preparing for all of our lives. Loving someone is a reason to stretch beyond our limits, to become more for the sake of the other. It is to look into the soul of your beloved and accept what you see. Loving is the ultimate commitment which challenges humans to become all that we are meant to be. As they join in marriage today, Tobias and Beatrice are announcing to the world that they are welcoming that challenge."

Tobias and I smile at each other and he squeezes my hands gently.

"You've both written your own vows. Let's start with the bride."

I turn and hand Christina my bouquet. I turn back and take a deep breath and look into Tobias' beautiful blue eyes that are filled with love.

"Tobias, when we met I wasn't looking for love or for a serious relationship. But something changed the moment I saw you. When we saw each other again later that night I knew it wasn't a coincidence. Like we were meant to meet each other. I wasn't afraid to be open with you about my life and my past which was something I never did with anybody else. Something in me knew that I could trust you and to my surprise you did the same with me. I think first and foremost you are my best friend. Someone I can count on, someone who will tell me all the good things about myself when I get discouraged and don't believe it myself. After losing my parents I didn't know what to do, but I've come to realize that they've always been here with me. They lead me to you. Tobias, I promise to love you and honor you, to be by your side in good times and in bad. We made a promise once to always fight for each other and that's what we will do every day for the rest of our lives. You're the best man I've ever known. I stand before you today happier than I've ever been. As I have given you my hand to hold, so do I give you my life to keep. I love you so much."

He smiles and wipes my tears.

"Beatrice, before I met you I was just a shell of a man. I was living half a life. When I came home from war I felt so alone but then I met you. I will never forget being captivated by your beautiful eyes. You were unlike any girl I had ever met before. I want you to know that I will always choose you. You make me want to be better, for myself and for you. You have already done so much for me and I know it's because you love me. If it weren't for you I might've never reconciled with my mother and father. You've taught me what it means to forgive rather than live with hate. Beatrice, I promise to love you and cherish you, to protect you and hold you. I am honored to become your husband and I love you more than anything."

We exchange the rings and I do's and finally the minister says the words I've been so anxious to hear.

"I now pronounce you man and wife. Tobias, you may kiss your bride."

We close the gap between us as my hands go around his neck and his around my waist. He dips me slightly before we break the kiss. We turn to see everyone smiling and cheering.

We are finally married.

A/N: Hope y'all loved this chapter. They're married! I had to do a bit of research for this chapter lol and I actually got a line of Tris' vows from a real, televised celebrity wedding. The line was the "hand to hold/life to keep" line. In reality, only the groom was the celebrity, not the bride but I loved her vows too specifically because of that line. Next chapter will be up hopefully soon.
