Determined

Tobias pov

Today's the day I pick up the ring. There is alot of things I can't wait for like... I'm ready to propose to her. I can't wait marry her. I can't wait until we're all done with this war.  All those and so many more. Maybe she will finally lose her seventh fear if she hasn't already.

I wounder if her and Matthew. No I am sure she didn't. Tonight I am going to purpose to the love of my life.I can't wait for her to say yes. I know she will! She loves me.

I go to work today. The government jobs aren't fun but it has to be done. If I don't do this job then someone else will be telling me how to live. I'm not okay with being told what to do.

We are having a secret meeting tonight. That way we can discuss who will be going after David we need as much back up as we can get. That way no one on our side gets killed we don't know how many people we will have to fight or if he has anymore duplicates.

I am almost done with work. After work I have to go pick up the ring. I miss Tris and it has only been a couple of hours. Well I guess that is normal. I miss her everytime I leave. It must be bc the last two years.

I love my amazing girl so much.  My angle Tris is the bravest smartest person I know. Speaking of people Evelyn  is supposed to come over tonight. Shit I forgot all about that. She doesn't know Tris is alive. I don't want her to know. What am I going to do? 

I pick up my phone to text Tris. She been having nightmares of David I'm not sure I want her leaving my protection even just one night.
4- hey Tris I love you. What are you doing tonight?

I wait for her to text back. I don't know if I trust Christian staying with her. I know the best person is Matthew.  Is that really an option though. He do anything for her but I can tell he loves her. No not an option but it is her choice who she stays with. My phone vibrates clearing my thoughts.

T- I love you too. Nothing that I know of why?
4- My mother is coming into town to see me and I don't know if we should tell her about you being alive and all. What do you think?
T- I think your right. I'll stay with someone else tonight.
4- Why not stay at Chris's?
T- I can do that I'll go stay with Matthew while u all are at the meeting. Love you Tobias.
4- love you too Tris.

Great I completely forgot about the meeting. My mom can come but she will have to wait outside.  It is counsel rules anyway.  So she already know and it is not weird sometimes we meet at night. I run by the store pick up the ring.

When I get home Tris is packing a pair of clothes. I go and put the ring in the box in my dresser. I don't want Tris to see it. I go out and see Tris waiting to go. I go and ask her if she wants me to walk her over to Matthew's. She nods yes and we walk hand and hand out the door.  We get to Matthew's in a few minutes and before she knocks I give her a long kiss. As Matthew unlocks the door she kisses me one more time. We tell each other bye and Love you.  I kiss her on the cheek and run home.

I get home and shower get ready for my mother to show up. I hope she doesn't realize Tris is alive.  Atleast not till we kill David. I don't think she would say anything but I don't know.

I hear a knock at the door. I just finished making dinner.right on cue my mother walks in and I have no choice but to quit thinking of Tris. I pull out my phone for one last text tonight.
4- Tris I love you.
T-I love you too Tobias.

Tris POV

I am dropped off at Mathew's so they can have their meeting. I feel bad for Tobias he doesn't have any family he trust. I think I will try to make him feel better when I get back home.

Matthew is making dinner I asked he wanted help. He refused said I was a guest. I'm not a guest I used to be involved with him. I feel bad for Matthew.

He asks me how things are going with Four.I tell him we are doing good. He keeps looking at the locket still on my neck. I wondering what he is thinking? I don't have time to ask bc dinner is done. We eat and I get a text from Tobias.
4-I love you Tris.
T- I Love you too Tobias.

His mother must be there it will be the last text tonight.  Great I don't get to see him till tomorrow after he gets done with work. I love you tobias. I am impatiently waiting to attack David. I am ready for him to be dead. We get done eating and are watching the cameras in the lab.
"Tris what is wrong?" Matthew ask and I noticed I have a few tears.  Just thinking of David makes  me think of everything that happened. I can trust Matthew so I tell him.

"Just thinking of what happened to me when David held me captive." I answer he is still starting at the locket. So I ask. "What is wrong you keep looking at my locket?  What are you thinking?" His expression is blank.what is he thinking.

"I just miss you. It is nice you are still wearing my gift. It reminds me that u know I still care. That u are always welcome here. No matter what."  He says and the tears fall again.

He wraps me in a hug.  The werid thing is it doesn't remind me of Tobias.  This is just a friendly gesture I think to myself.  Hopefully that is all it is. I love Tobias and I could never love Matthew the same. I like him a little more then a friend and I care about him. I just don't love anyone the way I love Tobias. 

Just then Matthew arms losen my tears have subsided. Thankfully I hate looking weak.  The next thing I know Matthew kisses me.  His mouth on mine when he pulls back I go to explain to him about how I can't love him. That are feelings will never be the same. I guess I was thinking to long and must look happy. He kisses me again. This time I pull away quickly.  There is a knock a the door.

I go open it. Chris I am so happy she is here. I go grab my bag and Matthew says I can stay If I want to. That is the last thing I want to do but I don't want to hurt him either. I tell him I want to spend time with chris and he pulls me into a hug goodbye. Now what am I going to do?

We get out the door and start heading to Chris's house. We are walking and it just comes out.
"Matthew kissed me." She  stops dead in her tracks.
" What do u mean? Did u let him kiss u? Why did he kiss u?
"It was kind of my fault for asking what was on his mind.  Please don't tell Four. I don't need to lose another person just over a kiss." I beg her.
" Of course not."
We start walking again and then I hear something in the bushes next to it. Im afraid of what it might be.
