Chapter 17
Tris POV
I know he won't let anything happen to me or the baby.
"Goodnight." He whispers in my ear.
And i'm out.
I wake to Tobias' arms around my waist.
I roll over on my back and look at him.
He looks so calm and caring.
He is facing me but still asleep.
I trace the lines of his curling fire and the depth of his defined abs.
He moans and he opens his eyes.
"Morning…"
"Shh. If you don't acknowledge it, it might go away."
He laughs and leans in for a kiss and grabs my waist.
"How was your sleep?" He grins.
At that moment i remember a dream.
"Well i had a dream…"
"Really? What was it about?."
"Well you were in it and i was in it."
"Who else?"
"The baby."
He grins and bites down on his bottom lip.
I nod.
"Yup."
"What were we doing?"
"Well we were down at the chasm where we first kissed and you proposed to me while i was holding the baby."
He flashes a toothy grin and starts to kiss my ravens.
"You know you're going to have to update your tattoo." He says stroking them.
"I think i will."
"Because this little one-" He puts his big hand on my small stomach and it almost covers it fully.
"- and I are your family now."
"Yes you are."
Our lips collide and he brings his other hand up and cups my face.
We pull away and gaze into each other's eyes.
"You're going to be a father."
"You're going to be a mother."
We smile and embrace each other.
We get ready for the day and Tobias makes me a cup of coffee.
"Here you go." He says, placing it down on the bench.
"Thanks."
He sits opposite to me and gazes at me.
"So got any baby names?" I ask him.
"Mmmm…" He says tapping his finger to his chin.
"Well i haven't really thought about it a lot but i was thinking maybe we could have fire-related names since we're Dauntless."
"I like that."
"So like something like Blaze, Ash, Ashley and Phoenix."
I nod.
"They're excellent."
"What do you want to have?"
"A non-painful birth."
He laughs.
"No i meant sex."
"I don't know i don't really care."
"Same."
We sit there thinking for a while.
"Would you want anymore kids?" I ask.
He shrugs.
"Depends, I don't think i want an only child. Like i don't want it to be spoiled because being an only child sucks. But it's up to you."
"Yeah i agree but why is it up to me?."
"Because your the one that has to give birth, carry it around for 9 months and breast feed and all that."
"Yeah but thats only for like 1 and a half years and it's your child too."
I grab his hand and smile.
"You put it inside me."
He chuckles.
"Yeah but i couldn't have done it with out you."
"Neither."
We laugh.
"What about if we have twins?"
"i don't care what ever it is or how many or what it looks like. I will still love it with all my heart. No matter what."
"I'm so lucky to have you."
"I'm so lucky to have you and the baby and my friends and everything. I'm the luckiest man on earth."
"I'm the luckiest girl on earth."
We lean over the bench and kiss each other.
I climb up on the bench and move towards him on my knees.
He climbs up on it as well.
I sit down and start to lean back.
"Hey do think we can afford to be 10 minutes late?" he asks.
"Yeah fuck it."
"Okay."
He swipes everything off the table and lays over me.
He leans down and kisses me.
We roll around and i almost fall off but Four catches me.
"You're always be there to catch me won't you?"
"Always."
"You know i wouldn't be under you right now if you had never saved me on the ferris wheel and from the chasm."
""I know i'm a hero." he says purposely being vain.
I laugh.
"Where were we?" I ask.
"I think we were about to do this."
He rips his top off and slides off the bench.
He puts an arm underneath my knees and one on my back and lifts me up.
"Ahh!"
He throws me over his shoulder and runs over the the couch.
"Be careful!"
"I know i always am!"
He rolls me on the couch.
"Yes you are."
"So today i'm taking you to the baby shops and i'm also taking you to the bra store cause your boobs are gigantic." Christina says.
"My boobs are not gigantic." I mumble.
Christina doesn't say anything but just points to Uriah and Zeke.
I look over at them and they have their jaws open and are staring at them.
"Oh for fuck sake!" I shout.
Four walks behind them and bumps their heads together.
"That's my pregnant girlfriend's boobs your staring at! I'd like it if you didn't, they're not a object they're a tool."
"Oww!" Uriah whines.
"Well thats what you get!" Four scowls.
He sits next to me and slots his hand in mine.
"Thank you." I say.
I kiss his cheek.
"So Trissy how's mother nature treating you?." Christina asks.
"Like a bitch."
"What's she done now?" Lynn asks fed up.
"The vomiting, cravings, swollen boobs. Terrible. But there is one good thing about it." I say and look at Four in the last sentence.
He smiles.
"What?" Shaunna asks.
"The sex is amazing." Four answers.
"Oh god." Christina gags.
We all laugh.
Four nudges Christina and Christina remembers something.
"Oh..Oh yeah come on girls lets go." She says.
"Argh do i have to go! I'm only 8 weeks."
"It's better to be prepared."
"Argh! Fine!"
"Love you." Four gives me a kiss and nibbles on my bottom lip.
"Ditto. Bye boys!"
They all wave goodbye and we walk out.
But just before i leave i look back and see Four telling the guys something but whispering.
I wonder what he's telling them.
"This one?" Christina asks.
"Yeah well we're going into every shop so doesn't really matter." i answer.
We walk in and it has every baby thing imaginable.
Prams, cots, clothes and all accessories.
Christina grabs my hand and leads me to the clothes.
Lynn, Marlene and Shaunna scatter.
"OMG! This is so adorable." She holds an 4-piece outfit up.
It has a black tank top with the dauntless symbol on it.
The little pants are made of fake leather that is stretchy with some denim patches scattered.
It comes with tiny little combat boots that has velcro but is made to look like laces.
And the cutest piece of all is the tiny leather jacket.
It has little studs on it and looks like an exact copy of mine.
"Awww!" I say.
She drops it in the rolling basket.
The next piece we see is a onesie that says:
'I'm a baby badass.'
I laugh and Christina pops it in.
Next thing i know I'm buying a foldable, state of art baby carrier, the most comfy, stylish pram available, 12 outfits and a shaded, decorative, blackest cot.
"All i care is that is all this safe?"
"Ummm yeah!" The sales assistant answers.
"Okay then i guess i'll take all of it." I say.
"Okay….That comes to 234 credits."
"Sorry? What?"
"234."
"No i heard you but thats ridiculous."
"Tris don't worry we are all shouting you."
"Guys don't i've got it it's for my baby and i have the most credits."
"Shut up Tris were buying it for. End of discussion."
I groan and give in.
I'll just pay them back.
We go and have Lunch at a cafe.
I'm picking out what i want from the menu and decide to have:
The tuna and avocado sushi platter and i'm craving cheese so i get a cheese and ham toasty.
"Would you like to order now?." The waitress asks us.
"Yes umm could i please have your biggest platter of tuna and avocado sushis and a cheese and ham toastie, thank you."
"Tris you can't have them things."
"Why i have to eat for 2 now and i'm friggin hungry."
"No i mean pregnant women can't have alcohol, raw meat or cheese."
"Bullshit."
"She's right ma'am."
"Argh! I just have a double cheeseburger but with no cheese and with an extra patty and gherkins please."
"Hungry?" Lynn teases.
"Shut up."
"So in total we've spend 564 credits all on bras, maternity clothes and baby stuff."
"Yup."
"Guys you know i'm paying you back."
"No your not! It's our congrats present."
"Well when you guys get pregnant i'm buying it for you."
Christina smiles and squeals.
"What?"
"I'll tell you later."
"Okay?…"
Shaunna checks her phone and says:
"Guys it's 7.46."
We've been shopping for 10 hours straight and i'm so tried i just want to curl in my bed and sleep forever.
"Guys i'm going to head home….-" I yawn."I'm so tried and i think this little peanut is too."
"No! You're coming with me."
"Sorry Chris but i'm super tried."
"Don't care shut up."
She grabs my hand and drags me across the pit.
I hear the girls behind me squealing in excited for something.
Even Lynn.
"Chris please." I beg.
"I'm on strict orders!" She ignores me.
I groan and roll my eyes.
"Wait from who?!"
She just looks at me and like it will save someones life she doesn't budge.
I know because she was raised a candor she is trying so hard not to tell.
"Come on Chris. The truth can't be kept a secret like a wild animal it must be set free." I say reciting the candor manifesto.
"DON'T DO IT CHRIS!" Marlene shouts.
I circle her.
"Come on Chris just be honest." I persist.
"I hate you right now." She mumbles.
She walks off but holds on to my fore arm and digs her fingers in my skin.
"Chris ouch! Stop!"
She doesn't loosen.
Eventually we stand to a halt.
"Why are we at the chasm?" I ask.
"Follow me."
I hear male voices down below.
They hush.
Christina walks down the steep unofficial pathway down to the chasm rocks.
"Where are we going?" I ask.
No one answers.
We reach a smooth, large rock.
It's where Four and I first kissed.
I look around but don't see much apart from us and rocks and water.
"Tris?" Four steps out the shadows.
It startles me.
"What are you doing down here?" I ask.
I see Uriah, Zeke, Luke and Will standing behind Four and it is mirrored by the girls.
"Well i was going to ask you something."
"Really?" I tease.
"Yeah."
I look behind me at Christina and see is trying so hard not to scream out.
I search the faces of all the girls and they smile at me then look at Four.
I turn around and see Four down on one knee and holding a red love heart box.
"Beatrice Prior, would you like to do the honours of becoming my wife?"
Oh my god.
I can't believe it.
"No."
