Goodbye...

Chapter #18:Full Circle

Four POV

I love Tris Prior.

I speed down the busy streets of Chicago, its about 9 pm at night so the roads are filled with people wanting to go clubbing. Its not long before I'm stuck in a traffic jam. What I'm I going to say to Tris? I'm I going to tell her I love her? What if she leaves? I can't even think about her leaving with Elliot, but what if she does? Soon the cars are moving and I'm able to turn onto my street, I park in the underground parking structure, and then I hop out of the car and head up stairs.

Walking through the front door I see Tris on the couch watching more Grey Anatomy.

"Hey" I say with a shaky voice, still standing at the front door announcing I'm home. I take of my shoes while Tris jumps a little at the sound of my voice.

"Hey, are you okay?" Tris asks, she stands then walks over to greet me at the front door. I ignore her question and asks my own.

"No I'm not...Are you leaving me?" My voice is desperate. I walk over to her and cup her tiny face with my large hands. She tilt her face up so I can look her in the eye.

"What? You've lost me" She looks a little confused by my action.

"Are you going to Washington D.C with Elliot?" My voice is pleading, her eyes soften.

"No I'm not" She lets out a little laugh. A wave of relief rushes through me. "How can I leave you? My last family member" She says, she takes her small hands and entwined them with mine still on her face. She's not leaving me, Thank god… What? did she just call me family?

"Family Member? I should get that down in writing" I say with a cocky smirk, my eyes dance with mischief. She smiles back at me.

"That means you're stuck with me forever" I lean down and rest my forehead against her's, our noses are almost touching.

"I'm okay with that" I say in a soft voice I don't even recognizes. Our lips are getting closer and closer.

"Four?"

"Yeah?"

"Promise me you won't leave me"

"Promise" I lean down a kiss her.

"There, I sealed my promise with a kiss" I joke.

"I guess its official then?" I nod my head.

"Tris?"

"Yeah?"

"I love you" I say.

"I love you too" Tris says.

I kiss her again, but there's no rush because I plan on kissing Tris Prior for the rest of my life.

Tris POV

Oct 1, 2016: Journal entry #3

So it's been awhile since I have written in this journal, 2 years today actually was my first journal entry. I got this journal because I wanted to solve my problems with it because I was confused about Tobias and Elliot. But I don't need to solve my problems because I don't have any. How nice is that? I haven't seen Elliot since he left the restaurant that one night, but I have heard he was doing well, which is good.

He's the proud new owner of "Hemsworth Construction Inc." located in Washington D.C. He also just married a woman named Katherine, they have kids of there own so Lita has some siblings. Just to think if I had taken him up on his offer? Would that be me? I hope not. Elliot Hemsworth is happily married with kids and living the dream. I still feel bad for Elliot after what I did but the more days that go by with Four the less guilty I become. I have sacrificed a lot and I deserve to be happy.

Tobias on the other hand has not been so lucky about the whole ex's thing. He used to run into Lily all of the time because her office moved into his building, soon he got sick of his job and seeing Lily all of the time, so he decided he needed a change. So thats how "Eaton Communication & Technology" took off. Soon after he quit Raymond Tech Inc he decided to build his own company. After a couple of business classes at University of Chicago Tobias's company took off the ground. Not long after "Eaton Communication & Technology" was introduced to the world, Raymond Tech Inc went bankrupt because of the business Tobias was getting. Anyway I haven't seen Lily in over a couple of months but I know she's happy and is seeing a guy named Jamie who is a model for Burberry.

Even though Tobias makes enough money to buy a 5 story house anywhere in the world, twice. We still live in our small 2 bedroom apartment in Downtown Chicago, and thats never going to change. We will always keep the apartment, even when we need more space for kids, we will buy it and when our kids are grown up we will pass down the apartment just like my parents did to me.

We have talked about getting married and having kids with a white picket fence and all but we are happy just the way we are, for now. He is the one, I will never find someone else again. I do still work at Tori's Cafe, I need something to do during the days and I still like to be independent with my money until we get married but I will never be able to grasp actually how much many Tobias has, but I don't really care.

Elliot, Lily, Zeke, Uriah, Marlene, Shauna, Christina, Will are all happy. All the drama that ever happened, happened for a reason and no matter how hard it was everything came back around Full Circle. Tobias and I are happy together and ready to start a new life together. And for that I'm will always for thankful for.

We may move a million times over our lifetimes but the apartment we live in now will be in our hearts forever, because we found happiness in that apartment, we found friendship in that apartment, we found love in that apartment. We found each other in that Apartment.

The End
