Chapter 17 Wedding Continued

Tobias POV

I laugh as I see the signs the girls are showing me as they enter. I already know my Tris is a knockout but it is cute that they feel the need to tell me that. Then I see my Tris and my breath catches in my throat and my eyes begin to water. She looks stunning and there aren't words to describe how beautiful she looks in her wedding dress. Torin comes down the aisle before his mother. He is carrying our rings and has a huge smile on his face. I can't help but smile at my son. I am still in shock that our love created such an amazing little boy.

I see Amar look over at Tris and they exchange a smile before he walks her down the aisle. He looks so proud as if this was his own daughter. As he hands her off to me he leans in and whispers. "Tobias you better take good care of this girl or you will answer to me."

I smile at him. "I plan to take good care of her for the rest of our lives." He grins then walks over to his seat.

Johanna performs the ceremony and soon it is time for our vows which we chose to write ourselves. "Tobias and Beatrice have chosen to write their own vows. Tobias, you first." Johanna says and smiles at me.

"Beatrice I have seen you most of my life but it wasn't until I saw you jump into the net on your Choosing Day that I realized how special you are. From that moment on I just wanted to know the real you more and more. You were the first person I ever wanted to let in and share my secrets with. I was scared at first that you would hate me when you knew my secrets but you didn't instead you seemed to love me even more and helped me to get through the moments in which my fears threatened to overtake me. They say that we don't know what we have until it is gone but I knew long before I lost you that I had something special. The day I lost you my world crumbled and I didn't know how to move forward. You came back to my life and I could have been angry that you had deceived me with your death but I never could be angry about it because I had grown to love you even more than I thought possible. I want to share my life with you until the day we are separated by death. In sickness and in health I will love you until the end of time." I spoke from the heart not having taken the time to write down what I wanted to say because every time I tried I got frustrated and quit. My eyes and hers were both full of tears by the time I finished.

"Beatrice, your turn." Johanna said after a moment.

"Tobias I have seen you for most of my life but it wasn't until you helped me from the net that I came to realize you were someone I wanted to know completely. From that moment on I cherished every second I spent with you even when you were yelling at me as my instructor." This got some laughter but Tris continued on. "When you faced your fear of heights to save me when I almost fell from the Ferris wheel I saw a different side of you but then the next day when you threw knives at me I thought I had just imagined it. This kept happening with you showing one minute that you felt something for it just to hide it the next. Finally you let me in and again seemed to shut me out but soon after you explained that you didn't want anyone to think my ranking was out of favoritism. My heart only grew fonder of you as I realized how deep your love for me was. Every time you were there to protect me or guide me through the hard times I fell harder for you. I never wanted to be apart from you but the time apart only made our relationship stronger as it helped us both see how precious life is and how easily it could be taken from us. I was blessed that when things got rough during that time apart I was able to spend time with your father and our son. It was seeing you in them that guide me to hold on to hope that I would be back with you in time. When I returned I was afraid that you might not still want me or that you would be angry with me. I was surprised when you quickly opened your arms and welcomed me back as if I had never been away from you. I love you with all my heart and I will love you through sickness and health until the end of time." Beatrice finishes and I feel my face covered with the tears that have fallen. I have never been the kind to cry in front of others but today I don't care. I have my one true love holding my hands and we are both speaking from the heart.

Johanna makes a speech about us. "I have known both of these young people for a while now and I have never seen a love like theirs. Despite everything they have been through their love just grows stronger with each day. I feel like if others took a lesson from them our world would be a better place. Both of them have always displayed the qualities we use to value in our individual factions. They have always been brave, selfless, smart, kind and honest. Though I doubt either of them ever truly sees them as having all five qualities but for those who have seen them together can attest that they have brought out all five qualities in each other. For that reason I am honored to be here performing their wedding." She continued on talking for a few more minutes but I tune her out in favor of staring into Tris eyes. I feel her love radiating from her and I see mine reflected in her eyes. Before I know it we are being pronounced husband and wife then our lips are pressed together in a kiss that last for what feels like just a second but really was a good minute.

Tris POV

I walk out arm in arm with Tobias and I feel like I am floating on air. I slip my arms around his waist once we reach the room we are having the reception. The other girls are with Susan helping her get dressed in her wedding dress again for the reception. No words are exchanged as he leans down and kisses me on the lips. He slides his tongue into my mouth and I let my tongue play with his. We kiss for a good minute before he pulls back. "I never tire of kissing you." He whispers with his forehead against mine.

"I never tire of kissing you either. I also love the moments when our foreheads touch. It feels like we are the only two people in the world when you touch your forehead to mine." I whisper back.

"We aren't the only two people in the world?" He teases me then leans in and kisses me just under my ear. "You are so beautiful today that no words can describe how beautiful you are. I never thought it possible that my Tris could be more beautiful than she is everyday but you proved me wrong." His voice is husky and obviously full of lust for me and I love how his voice sounds right now.

"I love you, Tobias Eaton." I say as I look deep in his eyes.

"I love you, Beatrice Eaton." He whispers back before kissing me again. "I like how that sounds." He says a moment later the lust still heavy in his voice.

"I love how it sounds too." I whisper back.

The rest of the night we spend partying with our friends and families. Tonight Torin, Evelyn, and Marcus will be staying at the apartment so that Tobias and I can have some alone time. At midnight Caleb and Susan take their leave to start their week honeymoon. At about 1 am Tobias smiles at me and I know he has waited as long as he can to be alone with me. We take our leave and head to our house. He carries me over the threshold and up to our bedroom. It is officially our bedroom now and the other bedroom will be Torin's from now on.

"Tris, I want to make love to you tonight but I want to make sure you want it too because if not I won't force you." He whispers as he slowly undoes my dress.

"I want to make love to you too, Tobias." I whisper against his lips as I move to kiss him. Our kiss is deep and full of passion. We make love for the second time in our lives and I can feel all his pent up emotions. I feel mine as well and I can tell both of us have stayed faithful while apart. When it is over Tobias holds me tight to him and strokes my face. It is in that moment that I realize the nightmare is over, we are both alive, and we are together forever.

Tobias' POV

I wake the day after my wedding and see Tris asleep in my arms. God I love her. I know now that I am going to have a happier life from here until the day I leave this world. I just lay watching her sleep not wanting to wake my beautiful wife. I love the thought of Tris now being my wife. I love watching her sleep because that is when I realize my nightmare is over and my Tris is alive beside me.
