Chapter 1
Tobias
I storm into the training room and hear gun shots, but ignore them and look strait at my wife who threw up this morning and should be in bed. "Tris." She sighs, hopping off the table she had been sitting on.
"What are you doing here, Four?" she asks in her instructor voice.
"What are you doing here?" I lower my voice. "I told you that you needed to stay in bed."
"Yeah but Christina had to work. I couldn't just let them train themselves." She lowers her voice too. She looks over her shoulder when she hears that the guns had stopped shooting. "Get back to training! No one told you to stop!"
"So, why are you here, instead of in bed? Where you really need to be." She sighs and wipes her hand on her forehead. "Tris?"
"Look I need you to trust me that I will tell, but this is not something that we can discuss in front of a bunch of initiates." She sighs and I nod softly. She nods and goes back to the trainees. "I'll see you at lunch."
"Yeah." She gives me a shaky smile and turns back to the trainees. I frown at this. Why would she be scared? The news can't be that bad.
Can it?
Tris
"Lunch time." I yell and the gunshots stop, all at once. "Be back here in two hours."
"Why two?" Michael, an erudite initiate, asks and I arch an eyebrow.
"Because I said so, thank you very much." He shrugs and leaves with everyone else.
I sigh and unload the guns of the remaining bullets. My stomach growls but I ignore it, continuing to work. Five minutes later I set the gun I am holding and run to the nearest bathroom. I throw up the contents of my breakfast into the stall toilet. I wipe my mouth and flush the toilet. I wash my hands and walk back to the room, finishing and closing the door behind me. My stomach growls as I walk to the cafeteria, immediately spotting Tobias, Christina, Will, Zeke, Shauna, their daughter Calliegh, Marlene and Uriah feeding their babies, Mario and Jessica. They even put their weirdness into the kid's names. Tobias waves me over and I hold up my hand; signaling that I have to get food first.
I grab a turkey sandwich, pudding, a veggie and fruit cup, some cookies and two pieces of dauntless cake. Everyone looks at me weird when I sit down, except for Christina of course. She knows why I am eating so much.
"What, I didn't have breakfast." They leave it alone and go back to eating. Calliegh plays with her mashed potatoes and I can't help smile when I see it, picturing a little girl or boy with light brown hair, blue eyes and abnormally short sitting where she is.
"Kid, that's not play-dough." Zeke laughs as he wipes off the food. I shovel food into my mouth and Tobias looks at me weirdly.
"Slow down, hon." He smiles and I smile back. I don't stop though. I need to eat, because I want this baby. "Tris."
"What, Tobias?" I look at him. He sighs and shakes his head. I roll my eyes and eat my second piece of cake.
"Tris." I look up once again. Christina lowers her eyes and I know to take it down a notch a bit. I nod and look at Tobias, he was watching Calliegh. There was a spark of hope in my brain. I finished my food and tapped Tobias on the shoulder, when he turned around; I grabbed his hand and pulled him out of the cafeteria.
"Are you okay?" I ignore him and pull him by his head to meet my lips. We stayed like that for a couple of minutes before he pulls away for air.
"I'm pregnant."
His mouth drops to the floor practically.
A/n: So, I know that these chapters have been super short but I like to give a good cliff hanger and I am going to try and be more consistent with my number of words because I don't like that whenever you have barley any words.
I am very happy about the turnout of all of the views I got and how many reviews. Let me know what gender of the baby it should be on my profile poll.
