Chapter 2 Tris' Secrets
"Remember how when you taught me to fight you placed your hand on my stomach like this?" She replied placing her hand on his stomach in the same way he had done. "Or remember how when we climbed the Ferris wheel you ignored your own fear in order to protect me. You once said your first instinct was to push me until I break. Remember when you walked out during my first fight? The first time you said I love you as we were making our way to Amity I wanted so bad to be alone with you so I could have asked you questions and could have showed you my love not the way I did the night before 'I died' but rather the way we had been showing one another. The first time I said I love you I knew you didn't hear me because you were asleep but it was just before I left to go to my execution in Erudite." She pauses looking deep in his eyes and she sees his tears forming.
The door opens and closes softly as the others arrive. Caleb is forced to catch Christina when she faints at seeing Tris. "You would think I would be the one to faint not your friends from the Dauntless crew." Caleb says with a roll of his eyes and this brings Tris to laugh.
"I will explain to all of you but first I need a few more moments with Tobias that is if he will grant me that much of his time." She stands shifting her weight nervously from one foot to the other until Tobias pulls her into his arms.
"Will you go for a walk with me?" Tobias asks Tris and she quickly agrees with a nod of her head. They walk out.
"He is taking it rather well." George whispers to Amar.
"I am not surprised as Tris knew the right words to connect her back to him."
"Did he really tell her he loved her when they were trying to get to Amity?" Evelyn asks the room in general.
"Yes I was sitting three feet from them and he told her 'I might be in love with you. I'm waiting until I'm sure to tell you, though.' Tris had said, 'That's sensible of you. We should find some paper so you can make a list or a chart or something.' He laughed and replied, 'maybe I'm already sure, and I just don't want to frighten you.' She laughed and told him 'Then you should know better.' His reply was 'Fine. Then I love you.' And they kissed." Caleb says with a shrug of his shoulders. "Honestly if it would have been anyone other than my sister and Tobias I might have found it beautiful but it was kind of disgusting seeing my little sister so lovey dovey with her boyfriend. Now I know I was just jealous." They all laugh.
"I am sorry Tobias." Tris says to him as she finishes explaining things ten minutes later. "I never stopped loving you or being faithful. I love you and have only ever loved you. You are the reason I keep breathing and moving forward well you and one other person. I wanted first to see how you took to me before I brought that person to meet you."
"I love you Tris and I haven't stopped loving you. I have not been with anyone but you and I don't want anyone but you. So it was Gina that I spread the ashes for not you?"
"Yes and she would have loved that you did it in such a beautiful way. Her lover was a lot like you are. Anyway I don't want to tell the others about this other person until I tell you. That is another reason I didn't bring them with me because Amar would have had questions." With that Tris pulls out a small screen the kind they use at the bureau to walk about with files that are important. She shows him a picture of a little boy. "I named him Torin in honor of Tori who saved my life in more than one way. I think he looks just like his father. He is 2 years and 3 months old." Tris says softly hoping Tobias will understand.
"I think he looks like a mix of his parents as handsome as his mother is beautiful, with his father's mischievous eyes." Tobias replies with a big smile. "When do I get to meet my son?"
"When do you want to meet him?"
"Right this minute!" He says as he wraps his arms around Tris and picks her up off the ground twirling around with her in his arms. "I love you."
"I love you more Tobias Eaton or is it Tobias Johnson? I forgot to ask Amar what name you were using now."
"I am Tobias Eaton to most but Four to my friends still." He says with a laugh then grows serious. "What last name does our son have?"
Tris smiles a soft tender smile. "I had them record him as Torin Eaton son of Tobias and Beatrice Eaton." She blushes as she says it.
He stands shocked holding her in his arms. "You took my last name as yours when you had him?"
"No actually I did it just before I learned I was pregnant. I didn't know yet what happened to you or any of the others as I was hidden for days until things settled down then I found a woman that I could trust to help me to recover from what had happened. She had known Gina or should I say Rebecca and was happy to help me. I haven't made it legal yet but they allowed me to put it on the birth certificate."
"Well we will make it official very soon. Let's go get Torin so we can drop all the information at one time!" Tobias said and Tris laughs.
"We won't have to go far. Leslie his babysitter said she would bring him with her when she came home tonight. She lived on the fringe then came to the bureau for some training before integrating into the city." Tris looks down at her watch. "Let's go back to your apartment she will arrive in about 15 minutes."
"I have a dumb question for you. Where do you plan to live?"
"I hadn't thought that far ahead as I didn't want to get my hopes up that you would still want me after what I did this time."
Tobias wraps his arms around her and kisses her passionately. "Move in with us. Mom is tickled you are here and alive or so it seemed. Wait you said she knew in advance why?"
"I needed to know how she would react because I knew you two were working things out and if she didn't like me I might just get in the way. I didn't tell her she was a grandma though." She says. "I hope she won't kill me for keeping that from both of you for so long."
"If she gets mad at you she will cut herself out of her son's life again and I think she realizes you are not temporary but rather very permanent in my life. I have never let go of you and I am not about to start. Remember I once told you I would be your family? I still mean it and now we have a bigger family. Amar, George, Shauna, Zeke, Caleb, Christina, my mom, and several others. Oh Johanna is going to be thrilled to see you maybe now I won't be so moody at work." Tobias rambles on and Tris laughs before leaning up to kiss him.
"I love you more every moment I live. I longed for you while I was away from you." Tris says just as a car pulls up and parks beside them. "About time you showed up Leslie. Torin's father has been freaking out about meeting him." She teases her babysitter.
"Can you blame him?" Leslie says with a laugh as she pulls Torin Eaton from the car.
"Daddy!" Torin cries as he runs straight for Tobias who picks him up and cuddles him tight.
"Leslie thank you I will talk to you tomorrow about any changes in the plans from now on. Tonight I want to focus on my family." Tris says.
"No worries Tris. See you soon. Nice to see you Tobias I look forward to getting to know you soon but then again I feel as if I know everything about you through Tris." Leslie gets back in her car and drives away as Tobias takes Tris hand.
They walk into his apartment. "Who is that?" Caleb asks as he spots Torin in Tobias' arms.
