Hey everyone! Hope you are enjoying the story! Today marks the one year anniversary of publishing this story! I'm going to have a few lines from The Choice in this chapter.

I own nothing. Everything belongs to Veronica Roth and Nicolas Sparks.

Angela's POV

After this morning's surprise proposal, I went straight to the control room to find Four and Zeke. I get to the control room and they aren't there. I am about to go to the training room when I run into Max when I walk out the door of the control room.

"Angela I have been looking for you all morning. We have a council meeting this morning." he says.

"I'm sorry Max but I don't think I can go to the meeting today." I say and I'm about to walk away when he grabs my arm to stop me from walking away.

"Everything ok?" he asks.

"Can we talk in your office?" I ask.

He nods and we walk to his office. Once we are in side I sigh and blurt out "Eric proposed to me last night."

He looks at me in shock and asks "Why would he do that?"

I look at him insulted. He quickly says "Not that you're not worthy of getting married to someone like Eric but I don't get why he would do it so soon."

"We got into a fight and we almost broke up because of it." I say sitting on the couch.

"Oh I see. He doesn't want to lose you." he says leaning against his desk.

"I think he already has." I say quietly.

"Look give him some time, he'll realize what a big mistake he made by not telling you about whatever it was you were fighting about." Max says walking towards the door.

"I need to find Four and Zeke and talk to them about the situation." I say getting off the couch and walking towards the door.

Max opens the door for me and gives me a hug. While he releases me he whispers in my ear "it will all work out for the best."

I leave and go find Four and Zeke.

Eric's POV

I really don't want to be here right now. I have been sitting at a restaurant that my sister and I used to go to all the time before I left for dauntless and my sister invited Monica.

They are talking about Monica's boyfriend and I'm sitting there thinking about Angela and whether or not she'll say to my proposal.

"So how are you and Angela?" I hear Monica ask.

"We're ok." I say looking at my plate.

"Something happen?" she asks.

"Yeah. She thinks I'm going to leave her for you." I say.

"Well she doesn't need to worry about that anymore because my boyfriend proposed to me last night." Monica says showing off the ring.

I look at her in shock. I take her ring hand and look at the engagement ring. It looks expensive. I let go of her hand and say "It's a nice ring. Where did your boyfriend get it?"

"Some jewelry store in Erudite. Why? Thinking about asking Angela?" Monica asks.

"No way! You are not doing that! You two just started dating, it's too early to purpose to her. Are you thinking about asking her because of that fight you two had last night?" my sister says.

"Yeah after that fight, I'm scared of losing her. She's the best thing that has ever happened to me. I can't lose her. I love her." I say.

"Does she know that?" ask Monica.

"I've told her that I loved her but she doesn't believe me especially after last night." I say eating a few fries.

"Well I can talk to her." Monica says eating her salad.

"No, you don't need to do that. I'll talk to her." I say.

"You know your relationship sounds like work and this work happens to live one hundred feet from your apartment." my sister says eating her shrimp.

I look at her and ask "What are you getting at?"

"I know you, and my big brother does not like it when things do not come easy." my sister says finishing her shrimp.

"That is true but our relationship being in the rocks is your fault Erin." I say finishing my fries.

"I thought you told her about your past relationships." Erin says crossing her arms.

"I did but she thought I wasn't in contact with any of them." I say.

"Oh I see, she mad because she thought you and Monica were no longer in contact with each other." Erin said smirking.

I sigh and shake my head. "Do you remember when I said 'Uh-oh' earlier when you first met Angela?" I hear Erin ask.

I look at her confused and say "Yeah."

"As in 'Uh-oh you just met you wife.' Mom loves her, and dad needs to warm up to her but I know you are head over heels in love with her." Erin says smiling.

"Yes I love her but I think we are moving too fast." I say paying the check.

"How long have you two known each other?" asks Monica.

"I've known her for a few weeks." I say.

"That is another reason why you shouldn't purpose to her now. She probably hasn't told you all about her past. I mean what do you really know about this girl?" my sister say taking a sip of her water.

"She has a troubled past. She told me about it and well there is proof behind it." I say drinking my glass of water.

"What kind of proof?" Monica asks.

"If either one of you tell Angela I told you this, then I will never speak to you again. Her parents used to beat her and she has scars on her body." I say looking out the window.

"What kind of parents would do that?" Monica asks.

"The kind that abuse you." I say while drinking my glass of water.

I know I shouldn't have told them about Angela's past but they needed to know the truth about her past. I know Angela is going to hate me for telling them but I don't care. I say good bye to my sister and Monica and head back to Dauntless. I had to talk to Angela and tell her we need to take it slow.

I knock on her door and wait for her to answer. She opens the door and invites me inside. I walk over to her couch and sit down. She sits next to me and I say "We need to take our relationship slow."

"I agree. I do have an answer to your question from this morning." she says looking at me.

I turn my head and look at her. She smiles and says "Yes."

Ok, I decided that Angela and Eric's relationship needs to slow down. I will have Eric ask Angela to marry him again with an actual ring in a later chapter. The next chapter there is going to be a time jump and a few events will be happening during that time jump.

Review please!
