( I do not own Divergent)
It has been 13 weeks since that woman changed my life and 3 weeks since my accident, I am completely healed now, my mother gave me a clean bill of health yesterday. I am extremely grateful for this becaue no exercise and no sex has been driving me completely crazy. Tris is settling into her job well and is happy for the distraction. They did end up catching the guys who stabbed me and they were sentanced to living outside the fence. Peter was executed for not only poisoning Tris but her attempted rape and Edwards stabbing. The odds were never going to be in his favor. So overall things are going pretty well right now.
I collect Tris from her office and we head down to lunch together. She hasn't heard about my clean bill of health yet, but I have a giant surprise set up for her for tonight. I'm having Christina take her shopping after work so I can get everything set up. We finish lunch and I give her a kiss and let know I'm off for the rest of the day and I hope she has fun with Christina.
I go out to the motor pool and take a car I reserved and drive to this little jewelry store in the Candor sector and cross my fingers that they finished the ring that I had designed for her. It's in the shape of the Dauntless flames and each stone is a different colored opal that when you look at it all together it looks like it is coal that is still burning. The metal was also something really rare called Platinum. It cost me alot of credits but it will be totally worth it when she sees it.
Next I go to a flower shop and buy an arrangement of dark purple roses and a black vase that has little flecks of glitter in it that makes it look like the night sky. Moving on to another store I get a midnight blue silk table cloth and a really nice dish set so that the table will be perfect. Heading to the grocery store I start getting a weird feeling in the pit of my stomach, I think it is nervousness but I have never felt it so I don't know. Grabbing some steaks and a bag of potatoes. I head to the dessert aisle to get the stuff to make Chocolate Mousse and strawberries.
Bringing everything to the car I got that feeling again, I deposited the stuff into and then headed to the tailor to pick up the suit that I purchased for the occasion and I can wear again when we get married. Anyway, so I got everything and then drive back to the compound and hurry to get everything set up and showered before 8 PM, which is when Christina is supposed to have her here.
I start with making the chocolate mousse first and then put the little containers in the fridge to set and then proceeded to cut up the strawberries and soak them in vodka. I get the steaks marinated and set them in the fridge and then get the potatoes peeled and cut. I breathe a sigh of relief as I get the table set and then move back to the kitchen after about 20 minutes. I remove the strawberries from the vodka and roll them in sugar and then set that dish in the fridge along with the champagne.
After putting the potatoes on to boil I decide that showering is my best option at this point. I shower fast making sure to shave my face and then I get out and gel my hair and go into the bedroom to don my suit. I leave the jacket off and move back into the kitchen making sure to grab an apron so I don't ruin my shirt. I get started whipping the potatoes with milk, butter and sour cream, grill the asparagus that I grabbed with salt, pepper and butter and set them aside. I turn to the fridge and grab the steaks searing them for 4 minutes on each side and then place a tab of butter on each and put them in the oven.
I make the plates at 7:58 and set them on the table and remove the apron and put on my suit jacket just in time to hear her key in the door. I pat the pocket of my pants to make sure that I put the ring in there and wait for her to open the door, before she has a chance to see anything she turns around to say goodbye to Christina. When she turns around I think he jaw is going to fall off from the way it is hanging open, her eyes light up like it is Christmas. "What's going on?" she asks.
She looks amazing the midnight blue dress that Christina and I had discussed hangs on her in the perfect way. I walk up to her and give her a kiss and lead her to the table. Tris gasps a little as she says, "this looks delicious, what's the occasion?" I look at her with a light in my eyes "Can't I just do something because I love you?" I say with a smirk. She giggles and nods her head. We finish the meal even though it was delicious it was hard for me to push through it and I think Tris has noticed but I get up to take the plates to the kitchen and make the desserts and pour the champagne.
I take hers to her and her eyes light up and she takes a huge bite and moans, "oh my God this is delicious, you made this from scratch?" she asks. I laugh a little. "Yes, I did." She looks at me when she notices that I haven't taken a bite yet. "How come you're not eating?" she says a puzzled look on her face. At her question I rise from the table and take her hand in my own and get down on one knee in front of her. "Tris, before you I was a poor excuse for a human being, I was angry and cruel and I didn't think that I would ever be able to love. You have changed me from the inside out and because of you I am a much better person. I love you more than anyone on this earth and it would make me the happiest man in the world if you would consent to be mine forever. Tris, will you marry me?"
Tears are making their way slowly down her face glistening in the candlelight and I realize that I haven't even shown her the ring yet. I move my free hand to my pocket when she drops my other hand and takes my face in hers and looks me deep in the eyes. "Yes." she says bringing her lips to mine. I pull away reluctantly and remove the box from my pocket and free the ring from its cage and place it gently on her left hand. Tris looks from me to the ring and back to me her eyes wide and full of what I now know is love.
She looks like she wants to jump on me but I have yet to tell her about my clean bill of health so I pull her close to me, so that is now straddling my lap. "I saw my mother today." I say smirking into her ear. "I am cleared for all physical activity." I say as I rise her legs wrapping around me. I lean down to blow out the candles and then carry her to the bedroom.
Setting her softly on the bed I back up a few paces and slowly begin to undress. I think for a second that I am going too slowly because she begins to move from the bed. I shake my head at her and finally I am standing before her in just my silk boxers. I pull her up from the bed and give her a deep hard kiss and lower myself to the bed and watch as she begins to undress herself. She removes her shoes and stands so that she is facing away from me and reaches on her side and slowly moves the zipper down and the fabric flows to the floor revealing the lace underwear that is clinging to her body.
I wonder how much Christina had to pay her to wear this and resolve to pay her double. Tris turns to face me, at this point I am almost bursting so in about 3 seconds flat I am up from the bed my lips colliding with hers and my hands are travelling wherever I can find skin. She puts her arms around my shoulders and pulls herself up and wraps her legs around my waist. We collapse to the bed and I remove my boxers and all but rip off the two lacy pieces she is wearing and within nano seconds I am inside her.
"I love you." I say as I thrust into her. "I'm so happy I am going to be your wife." she says as she raises her hips to allow me to go deeper inside her. She pushes me to the side and moves me so my back is on the bed and she is on top. She lowers herself onto me and she looks me in the eyes and begins to rise her eyes never leaving mine and it is the most intimate thing that has ever happened to me. I raise my hand to reach for her breasts but she says "no just look at me." She continues rising and falling and I feel myself starting to fall apart underneath her.
"I'm going to come baby." She says moving faster and faster and within seconds I feel her muscles squeezing my cock and I can't hold on anymore. I come hard into her continuing the thrusting that she has stopped. When I am empty and she is done convulsing I pull her off of me and turn to the side so we are spooning. Opening my eyes I see that she is finally examining her ring. "This is a really beautiful ring baby, where did you find it?" I smile at her and reach over and pull it off her finger and show her the inside where our names have been engraved. "I had it designed for you because nothing that they had amounted to what I needed you to have." She turns around to face me after replacing the ring on her finger and says. "I love you future husband." I return her kiss and as we drift off too sleep I say, "I love you to Mrs. Coulter."
