Tobias is gone for about an hour before I get bored and walk to Christina's apartment with Emma. I knock on the door, and Marlene answers.
"Tris!" She almost shouts, but then sees that Emma is asleep in my arms.
"Hey. Four left for a little bit, and I was getting bored." I say.
Just then Christina comes walking up the door. "Why are you still standing outside? Come in." She pulls me inside and we walk I to the living room where I sit on the couch.
"So what's going on?" Christina asks.
"I got bored waiting for Four and I wanted to talk to someone who can actually speak." I say while shifting Emma in my arms.
"Where did he go?" Marlene asks.
"I don't know for sure, but I think it has something to do with Max and a new apartment. Ours is so small, and there is no room for Emma."
"So what are you guys going to do in the mean time? I mean, even if he does convince Max to give you guys a bigger place, I will most likely take a few weeks at least." Chris says.
"Yeah, I know. Four said that in the mean time, he would sleep on the couch so that Em and I could have the bed."
"Aww, that is so sweet of him." Marlene squeals. "Are you okay with it though?"
"Well, I don't really have a choice. I would rather be able to go to sleep with him next to me, but I also would feel safer with Em next to me too. At least until someone finds Eric. Besides, its not like all three of us can fit on our tiny bed. Even before Emma was here, we were both squished on the bed. I mean, its only a little bigger than a regular twin size bed. I'll be surprised if Emma fits on there with me. She is small, but we also need to put a bunch of pillows on the side of the bed so she doesn't roll off in the middle of the night."
"I'm sure you guys can figure it out. You always got us too." Chris says.
"Yeah, thanks guys."
*Tobias POV
I walk out of the apartment and go down to Zeke's place. It isn't that far from Tris and I's apartment since Zeke and I have the same job. He and Shauna only live a few apartments down.
I get to the door of their place, knocking once before I enter. Zeke is sitting on the couch with a beer in his hand talking to Uriah and from as far as I can tell, Shauna is not here. Thank God.
"Hey Four!" Uriah shouts when he sees me.
"Hey guys, I need your help with something." I tell them.
"If you want us to help you look for Eric, the answer is no. You gotta lay off it for a while dude. The entire compound is looking for him." Zeke says.
"No, its not about Eric." I pause for a moment, "I need your help picking out an engagement ring for Tris."
When I say this, the both jump off the couch and congratulate me. "That's great man! But why did you wait until now to do it? I mean, I'm not saying you should have gotten married while Tris was pregnant, but why did you wait until right now to even propose?" Zeke asks.
"Because I didn't want her to feel like the only reason we were getting married was because she was pregnant, and I didn't want it to be that way either, I was going to wait a while after Emma was born too, but we don't have any room in our apartment any more."
"Oh, well that makes sense I guess." Uri says.
"So are you guys going to help me or not?" I ask.
"Of course we are!" Zeke says.
"Come on, there is a jewelry shop in the Pit."
"I don't even want to know how our know that Uri." Zeke tells Uriah.
"Marlene dragged me in there one time a couple months ago. She wanted to look for some new jewelry, rings in particular for some reason." Zeke and I laugh at this. "What?" Uri questions.
"Damn dude! You really are clueless." Zeke teases.
"What are talking about? I am no clueless!"
"Uriah, Marlene clearly wants you to propose." I chime in.
"What? No, that's impossible! We've only been dating for a year and a half."
"So have Tris and I, and I'm proposing."
"That's different! You don't have a choice cause you knocked her up!" Uriah tries to defend himself.
"Dude, face the facts, Marlene wants to get married." Zeke says quickly, so I don't punch Uriah in the face for his comment.
"Whatever. Just drop it so we can go get a ring for Tris." He retorts.
"Good idea." Zeke agrees.
The two of them put down the bottles of beer in their hands, and we walk out of Zeke's apartment and to the jewelry shop in the Pit.
*PAGE BREAK*
Two and a half hours later, I have the perfect ring for Tris. It has a silver band and two small white diamonds on the sides and a slightly bigger black diamond in the middle. I know that she will absolutely love it.
I walk back to our apartment after saying 'bye' to Zeke and Uriah. When I walk inside, Tris is sitting on the couch with her sketch book.
"Hey, I thought you would be back later." She says as she closes her sketch book and places it on the coffee table.
"Nope, where's Em?" I sit down next to her on the couch.
"Asleep I'm the bedroom. I put a bunch of pillows around her so she wouldn't fall off the bed." Tris says as she leans her head on my shoulder.
"Tired?"
"Very. Getting stabbed and taking care of a two week old can do that to you." She jokes, I can tell she is also being fairly serious.
"Come here," I wrap me arms around her and pull her closer to me. "Go to sleep Tris, I'll take care off Emma if she wakes up."
She looks up at me and smiles, "thank you. I love you so much."
"I love you too." I tell her, then give her a quick peck on the lips before she falls asleep in my arms.
I missed having her do this for the passed couple weeks, so now I savor every moment, not knowing how long it will last.
