It takes us at least a couple hours to get back to the Dauntless compound. We take our time walking through and exploring the city. I have never really looked at the surroundings of our city, so I never really noticed the simple beauty that was the Abnegation sector. And that had been my home for sixteen the time that we get back, visiting day of long over and the initiates are back in their dorms or getting more tattoos. Anything that would make them look like Dauntless. I feel a little jealous for this group of initiates. They get to experience initiation the way that I wish that I had. They don't have Eric breathing down their necks making them feel like they need to kill each other for a spot to stay. We weren't kicking anyone out this time. They all have an equal chance to do things the way that they want. The only way they would become factionless if they left of their own accord or if they did something that went against the values of being Dauntless.

We stop by the cafeteria to get a quick bite before heading back up to Tobias' room. This is one of the few places in the compound that I feel extremely safe. I've always felt safe here, even that first time when Tobias saved me from Peter, Drew and Al. It was a completely different time then. I love the way that things are now. I'm no longer afraid of not knowing who I am and what I want. I know who I am now, and even though I'm a little unsure of what I am, I still have my life back. I have Tobias back and he has me. I have never had to deal with losing Tobias. I didn't have to go through what he went through after I had been shot. I wish that I could take the pain that he felt away because I can't even stand to think about it. But I'm sure he still has that memory. And since we don't even know how long we're going to be here, it's probably something he thinks about all of the time.

We're standing side by side on the balcony looking out at the city. This city has always been my home. Even if the last few months that I remember, I spent trying to find a way out. This place is home. Even though Jeanine didn't know what was going on like I had counted on, I still feel like a weight had been lifted off of my chest. I can breathe a little easier now. Waiting for the meeting had been the worst part for me, because I think that I had been bracing myself for bad news, but no news is better than bad news right? We're all waiting again, but I feel more in charge now. We are waiting for them to get back to us with response.

"What's on your mind?" Tobias asks me.

I look over at him and let out a breath. "What if they don't answer?"

"Then they don't answer," he says. "We just live."

I close my eyes and rest my head against his shoulder. He presses a kiss against my head and wraps an arm around my waist. "Living doesn't sound too bad."

He chuckles."No it doesn't," he says. "How do you see your life going for the next few months?"

"Hmm," I say, returning my gaze to the horizon. "I see us finishing up with the initiates, for one thing. And hopefully starting a job here at the compound. I don't know what I'm good at here. I was never given a chance to figure that out. Things happened so fast after the final test last year."

"They'll be something for you," he says. "Maybe I can teach you how to use a computer."

I nod. "Maybe, That is something that I really want to learn," I say. "God it feels weird to be back here, doesn't it?"

I feel him nod. "I never expected to be back here," he says. "Not after everything that we've been through together. Here and outside of the city. We've been through so much."

He voice catches and I look up at him. "Are you okay?" I ask him.

He takes a breath and looks down at me. "Yeah," he says. "It's moments like these that I missed the most when you I lost you. Just talking about the future, planning a future. It's just...I never thought I'd get the chance again."

I shake my head slowly and stand on my toes to press my lips against his. He rests his hands on my hips and holds me in place. We stay that like for several moments, our bodies melding together. I don't want to let go. But eventually I have to catch my breath and I fall back on my heels. I rest my head flat against his chest, closing my eyes, listening to the sound of his heartbeat. He rests his chin on my head.

"I like this side of you," I tell him.

"You like me emotional?" he asks, amused.

"I like you honest."

"I'm always honest," He says.

I look up at him and raise an eyebrow.

"Well about most things," he says. "And always to you."

"Uh-huh," I say before laying my head back down. "How do you see your life going?"

"Well," he says slowly, his hands rubbing my back. "I just see us."

His words bring a smile to my lips and I tug on his shirt to pull him down so that I can kiss him. His hands move to my hips to lift me up and I wrap my legs around him, my kiss growing hungrier. He groans against my lips and the sound sends a chill through my body. I pull away and meet his eyes.

"Inside," I tell him, my lips brushing against his as I speak.

He doesn't waist any time getting us inside and onto the bed. We work quickly to rid ourselves out of clothes and then get back to kissing. His hands run over my bare skin, leaving goose bumps in the wake of his fingers. I move my lips to his neck, my fingers running through his hair as his hand moves between my legs. I let out a gasp as he pushes his finger into me, causing me to arch my body up into his . I nibble on his neck before moving my lips back up to his, kissing him eagerly. His thumb finds the sensitive nub, circling it gently as his fingers began to move faster inside of me.

I press my body tighter against his, my hips rocking against the motion of his hand. He moves his free hand up my side and begins the same motions on my breast, his thumb flicking my nipple as he kisses me. I move faster against his hand, gasps passing through my lips and hitting his tongue. He groans and pulls his hand away and I use the time to catch my breath. I don't have long before he enters me, another groan leaving his lips. He enters me fully before pulling out slowly and then repeats the motion, picking up the pace with every thrust.

My heart is pounding in my chest as the two of us move together, perfectly, in sync. I don't think I've been happier.
