Chapter 14

After Tobias left, I fell asleep almost instantly. I had a dream about a girl. Well, it wasn't really a dream, it was like a story. She was a bit short, thin, and had dirty blonde hair. Her facial features were blurred. It started off with the girl dressed in gray clothes. She blended in with everyone else. She didn't stand out and she didn't have friends. She looked unhappy, but it wasn't because of the lack of friendship. A boy, who was probably her brother, kept her company. She was unhappy because of her lifestyle. And one day, she changed. She ran with the kids dressed in black. She jumped on a train and went to live with them. She felt that she could fit in here. She trained with everyone else, but she was better than them. Even though there were one or two life-threatening situations, she was allowed to stay with them, along with her new friends. Along the way, she met a boy. His face, like everyone else's was, blurred. They liked each other, a lot. Their relationship grew stronger, and eventually there was a day where they got married. They trained kids who, like them, wanted to fit in. and they were happy.

Then I woke up.

I was puzzled by this dream. Who was the girl? Who was the boy? Where are they now?

That's when Tobias walked in, along with Doctor Hart.

He checked me over like he said he would. I didn't say a word the whole time. No one did. After he was done, he told me I was free to go. I pulled on the clothes Tobias brought me. It was painful considering I had all these cuts and bruises on my body.

We walked in silence. I assumed that we were going to the place where we lived. He let me in a small apartment.

"Go get comfortable on the couch," he told me. "I'm going to bring you some tea."

I wasn't sure how tea would help, but I didn't say anything. I sat down on the couch. Tobias soon joined me, and, as promised, there was a cup of tea in his hand. I took it from him, but didn't drink it.

"Are you ok?" he asked softly. I almost laughed. Considering that I was just assaulted by someone I don't remember, I guess I'm alright.

"I'm just thinking," I answered. "I had this dream last night, but, it was like a story." I started to tell him about the girl. I didn't leave out a single detail. When I finished, he smiled. "What?" I asked him.

"Tris," he began. "That girl you dreamed about was you. That's your story. You remember!"

"That was me?" I asked. He nodded. "All of those things happened to me? Jeez, I didn't think my life was that trauma filled." Tobias laughed, but stopped quickly. "What?" I questioned.

"Do you remember, at the end of the dream, finding out any news?" he asked slowly. "Like from a doctor perhaps?"

I was confused. News from a doctor? All I remember is that I was in there a lot because I have a tendency of getting attacked.

"No," I replied. "Why?"

"You never knew," he said, mostly talking to himself.

"Never knew what?" I pressed. What did I not know?

"Well," he started. "When you were unconscious, the doctor told me something. He told me that… that you're pregnant."

"What?" I exclaimed. "I'm… I'm pregnant?" Tobias nodded. No, I thought to myself. This can't be happening. I don't want a child. This was not something I planned to do.

"What do you want to do?" Tobias asked. I don't think he's thrilled about this either.

"I'm not sure," I answered.

"Do you… do you want to get rid of it?" he asked quietly. Did he seriously just ask that? Is he really suggesting that we kill our unborn baby?

"I can't believe you just said that," I told him.

"What?"

"I never wanted a child," I said truthfully. "But I can't believe that you are insinuating that… that we can just, kill this baby."

"I'm just saying that it's an option," he said, defending himself.

"No," I stated. "It's not. I'm not terminating an innocent baby. I may not be happy about this, but I'm not cruel. And if you don't want it, then that's your problem. Because I'm not going to do something so inhumane."

Tobias brought me into a hug. I didn't move, I just sat there, still furious that he said that. "Tris, look at me," he pleaded. I gave him a hard glare. "I'm not going to leave. I'm not a guy who runs from what scares him. I'm going to be there for this baby. I just didn't know if you wanted to keep it. I promise imp going to love this baby, even if it wasn't on my list of things to do."

I softened my expression. I believed him. I knew he would be the best father he could be. "I'm scared to," I revealed. "But, as much as I wish it wasn't, its happening. And there is nothing we can do about it."

Tobias kissed me passionately on the lips. "I love you," he whispered. He moved his head down by my stomach. "And you too."

"When did this happen?" I asked.

"On our honeymoon." He said. "The one time we don't use protection."

"It only takes one time," I said, laughing a little.

"Shit," I muttered.

"What?" I asked. What else could possibly be wrong?

"We have to rank the initiates." He said.

"Well that will be easier now that I actually remember them," I said.

He grinned. "Yeah," he said. He started to fill me in on the last fights. Tesa beat Kyle. Jessie beat Rachel. Jordan beat Mike. Dylan beat Ryan. Emily beat Amber. We put them in an order we thought was correct. Tobias added the Dauntless-Born. Will had told him what he thought was a good order. When we were done, Tobias picked me up, and carried me to our room.

"I finally have my wife back after four days," he said.

"Well, after a while, you're going to have to give up part of your half of the bed." I said, kissing him.

He groaned. "And I'm going to have to buy a new bed!" He moved his head by my stomach again. "You are going to make my life miserable aren't you?" he whispered.

"When are we going to tell Christina?" I asked.

He groaned again. "Crap," he grumbled. "I had forgotten about her. She, Will, and Uriah came to see you by the way. You were unconscious. And Christina should just figure it out on her own."

I laughed. "If I don't tell her she'll have a fit. I'll tell her tomorrow."

"Just make sure imp not in the room," he said. I laughed. Tobias wrapped his arms around my middle. "Goodnight." He whispered. I fell asleep to his voice.
